LITTLE Rock, March 27.-The Sheriff
Of Crittenden county arrived here, and
made the facts Of his arrest by the mill
tia, in Crittenden county, and his forced
resignation, known to the Legislature
and the Governor. A full investigation
will be made by the Legislature which
will probably unearth some curious mat
ters.
The Senate refused to adopt the Con-
ference Committees report, to take q re-
cess from April until January. The two
Houses cannot agree. The House will
not adjourn sine die, and the Senate will
not take a recess.
Most Of the morning, in the House,
was taken up by Mr.. Farrelly, Of Pu-
lassi county, who wished to spread his
protest on the minutes against the bill
passed yesterday, legslizing all the acts
of the militia, and other parties claim
ing to act under the authority Of the
Governor. The protest was long and
bitter. Brooks objected to receiving it.

Ex.PREsIpENT JoHnsoN.

We are happy to announce that ex'
President JOHNSON has recovered from
his recent severe but brief indispositioni
and that he will, in Difference to the
wishes Of his friends, leave his home
about the fret Of April, for q brief visit
TO the principal cities Of the Safe. He
proposes to speak st Knoxville on the
81, ct Nashville on the 6sh, and in this
city on the 9Th. His topic will, we I'M
derstand, be the existing condition Of
public affairs in and but Of Tennessee.
It is needless for Us to suggest to the
Democracy Of Memphis their duty in the
matter Of providing for 3 fitting recep-
ton Of the patriot ex-President. We
know that all will delight to honor the
champion OF The Constitution, and pay
him the respect due to his illustrious
character and services. Arrangements
should be made Immediately.

From present indications 1t is doubtful
If Congress will take any steps this sss
sion towards the permanent reconstrUe.
ton OF Mississippi. The distribution OF
Federal pap engages just low the atten-
ton of that body to the exclusion OF the
general public interests. Perhaps for
the people Of Mississippi it is as well SO.
There will neither be political eanvassss
ner conventions to rob them of the
fullest measure Of service in their
own interests. Another crop is needed to
~re-estsblish them fully. To the growth
OF this they can give their whole time
and attention. With plenty Of money
in hand, their proposed railroad enter
prises under way, and immigration fairly
set in, they can, next fall or winter, turn
their attention to the work Of recon
struction with a vigor and determine
ton that will, we predict, be as success
fol as last year, when Mississippi aston
ished the friends Of good government,
and encouraged the Democratic party
by an overwhelming defeat OF carpet
baggery and scalswaggery.

Government, which declares the obligs-

inmate on the 10th of April, 1859.
In an interview between the President
and a delegation Of Mississippians, rep
resenting the Conservative and r .publi-
can elements OF the State, the President
said he thought the best plan to quiet
the opposing parties in Mississippi would
be for Congress to authorize the Consti-
tuition to be again submitted to the peo-
Pile a separate vote to be taken on the
feature objected to by the Conservatives,
and that in the meantime the present
military commander should control the
State.
The President declined to receive visi-
tors to-day, owing to sickness.
VIM. Richardson, Assistant Secretary
Of the Treasury, vas sworn in to-day.
1t is understood there will bs consider

cslly, OF the employees.
1t is understood that Gov. A. Halsey,
who was recently offered the Registrar

to whether be will accept that position.
By direction of the President the order

partment, March 5th, published in Gen.

1ade 8 bold and excellent speech, which
I had much Influence. He sverFed the
present bill was worse than the old one,
aud gave, with much clearnegs, his reas-
ons for go asserting.
Mr.. Farnsworth spoke ten minutes 10
favor Of the Senate's amendment.
Mr.. Butler followed, speaking with
his customary earnestness, intensity and
effect, sud showing such originality and
shreWdness, il tbs management OF the
esse, that he carried his point, and the
bill was referred, by yeas 50 to nays 49,
70 the great chagrin OF the opposition.
Nearly sill Of the Democrats voted for
the reference.
Mr.. Buffers object in desiring the ref
erepce is to have aproper bill prepared
10 place of the one which passed the
Senste. All the lawyers unite with Mr..
Butler in saying that the amendments
Of the Senate are crude, il-considered,
and not fit to go on the statute books.
Messrs. Butler and Logan have both
talked nth Gen. Grant upon the subject,
and both assert that he informed them
that he 1gds not satisfied Nth the amend
7sent, but gdUe has concurrence rather
than to seem to take issue NTH the Senate
/ IN Le0dL t~echnicGL3ties ; and it is the de-
sire of these two gentlemen to have a
| satisfactory bill prepared, and they be-
lieve such q bill as Mr.. Butler will pre-
sent will pass the Senate. Mr.. But
le4 claims 3 majority Of the Judiciary
Committee, and is very confident Of hnal
! success. He will consent to an amend
ment Of the original bill, leaving all but
the first two sections. These he pro-
poses to amend by allowing the Presi-
dent to make removals n appoint
ments during the recess Of Congress, but
requiring him, as under the present law,
to report all such to the Senate for the
usual action, within thirty days after
meeting. II this is done, it is believed
q severe fight will begin between the
House and the Senate, but 1t is impossl-
BILE to Judge. The country will learn not
to be surprised st anything.
The case will come up tomorrow on
/ Mr.. Buffers motion, made tonight, to
reconsider the vote, his object being to
Law the motion to reconsider on the table,
to prevent the adoption Of q future mo-
ton to reconsider. He is busy tonight
in trying to retain his present majority
for the final vote tomorrow, and IN OBJ
tanning reinfOrcements. Bingham is also
said to be buy in an effort to defeat the
motion to table, and to finally pass the
Senate bill.

ARKANSAS.

Since the restoration Of civil law in Crit.
tenden county, Ark, the militia officers have
bssn compelled TO leave to save their lives
This proves how admirably the work o~frecon-
strpction has been done.
This We COPY from the Cincinnati
Commercial, of Friday, for the purpose
Of correction. So far from the militia or
their officers fleeing from Crittenden
county, they still occupy it in force, and
continue to make themselves felt q ter
ror TO the people. The Sheriff Of Crit
tenden is the only officer, civil or mill
tary, that we have heard OF a. being
compelled to hy for his life from that
militis-ridden county. But SIS he has
turned up in Little Rock, as our special
dispatch Of THIS morning informs Us, q
swift witness and sure for the Senste
sgAinst CLAYTON, and rs there is every
reason to believe that through him the
villsinies Of the Arkansas Governors

Of his enforced departure from home.

REPUDIArION AND SLAVERY

Senator SPRAGUE, of Rhode Island.
has recently been saying some queer
things for q New England man. Among
others, he il reputed to have made the
following declaration in g speech during
which be bscomingly bersted the vsri-
Gus rings into which the Senate is unde-
nisbly divided:
The main springs OF our prosperity had been
slavery and foreign immigration. The former
had stimulated the growth Of cotttn and made
II an American monopoly, and so mad bult mp
the manufacturing and commercial and rail-
road interests OF the North, and these bad, in
turn, invited and grown upon forelga immi-
grafton.
Startling IS this latter-day confession
will seem to our readers, 1t is fully
equsled by the following, upon the sub
ject Of reputation, from the same
source. The Senator said
am not in favor OF q reputation Of the ma
tional debt But, sir, I do not sympsthlzs with
that class OF men who are holding up 70 the
gass OF the people OF the United States the sa-
crednes OF that debt was opposed IN your
caucus, Mr.. President, TO an amendment OF
the Constitution giving undue Profession to
that debt, and 1 am also nov opposed 10 any
reiterated protection by the law contemplated
by the bill before the Senate. lido not think
that there is much sacredness in tbs issue OF
bonds for the Pacific Railroad, which becomes
a part OF your national debt; and ] see nothing
that 10 sacred in the thousand and one IN
necessary appropriations that are constantly
made at each session Of CONGRESS.
The great bulk Of the debt or the nation has
bseu created in pursuance OF a necessary and
Important object, the maintaining OF the terri
torial integrity OF the United States. In Great
Britain to-day the profits on Almost any one OF
her great tndustriEs-her commerce, her manu-
features OF iron or Of coal. OF OF cotton or OF
WOOl-are Sufficient 10 pay the interest on her
national debt. But iE II a part OF a people TO
dun into the condition CT Mexican society,
where the national debt Is an oppressive bar

ness It is 10 make light the public burdens, ne
elect, either from Ignorance or from any other
cause, 20 pursue a policy that viii relieve, in
stead of . policy thst Will destroy II the peo-
pls OF this country are to day, In consequence
% the public debt bearing heavily upon them,
drifting. as I veribiy believe, into the condition
OF spanish and Mexican society. would any
one demand that state OF slavery rather than 3
cancellation Of the debt?
ST.. you have provided for wholesale repudis-
Of private debts by your enactments at rec. Mt
Re sions OF Congrss4 You can cancel debts be-
tween individuals, between the citizens OF the
country aad you look with holy horror upon

P. S.-What is meant by the follow
ing, which We clip from the Nashville
UusO8 and american Of the 18th inst ?
1.-THE Southern Railroad Association
have, within the last week, become the
purchasers of the Paducah Railroad, with
all its rolling stock, ETC., and are about
to build a road from Jackson, intersect-
ing the Memphis and OHIO Road at Mi
Ian, and connecting with the Padueah
road at Msyfield. Their object is to
draw everything on to their great North
ern and Southern line, and with this
view it is probable they will discontinue
running the Paducsh road to Troy Sta
ton, and transfer the rails and rolling
stock to their new road from Mayfsld to
Jackson. This will be fatal to the pro
jeeted Mississippi River RsilrOsd."
