AFFAIRS IN ARKANSAS. Tho following
letter-for the truth of which we can vouch-
will show the terrible state of affairs existing
in Arkansas, under the rule of Gov. Clay
tons militia 1t is from the brother of an
old and respected resident of Columbia:
MEMPHIS, January 90 You
have heard Of the conduct Of Gov. Ulayton's
militia in Arkansas. They have laid waste
q large portion Of yhe State, and destroyed
more property than the Federals did during
the war. It will take one or two years to
restore the county to what it was before
they made the raid through it. The militia
have no respect for persons or property, and
have committed several rapes in the County
in which I live-one at my own house, upon
the person of the wife of Mr.. K.-who was
loft in charge. 1 am afraid to return
home, as the militia say they will kill me-
am entirely destitute of money
