Burial of Major lLarncy--A Pre-
 c1Ous Lot.

We take the following from the Memphis Appeal of the 2Gth ult:
 The remains Of Maj. Has'hcy, brought to this city as related fn the Appeal yesterday morning, were inferred yes- terday afternoon M Elmwood Ccmc- tcry, A large crowd followed them to their final resting place, and many n refugee swote over his cold and inani- mate corpse long and deep hatred and revenge to and upon his murdcrers.
 We are informed that when the mili- tia law first went into operation and Crittenden county was among those put under martial law, two companies of militia were raised and officered by three or four carpet-baggers from Com necticut, who had settled there during the war.
 These ssweet scented' individuals believing in miscegenation thoroughly, took unto themselves wives from the sons of Ham, and settled here, each with couple or SO of dusky aspasias as helpmates, from whom they have raised families of molasses-colorcd children.
 When the war broke out few weeks ago, they moved their dear char ges over to this side, and they are now living down in Fort Pickering in clover. Every day or two these off cers come over to see their harems. and each time they come loaded with spells of one sort and another. One of these gentry is named Payne, and was in town Sunday, and brought over plum der to the amount of S200. He went back yesterday, and promised one of his negro wives to bring hcrlany qnan- tity Of sstraps" when he comes again. We hope that some ofthosc who know this fellow by sight may keep an eye on him.
 The steamer Des Arc from White river, arrived last night about half past ten o'clock. She brought Clayton, his staff, and an army ofdetectives around, and they are now in the city. Wn are informed by passengers that at Helena the Sheriff of Woodson and Drew counties came on board and arrested a man named Bray, put him in irons and hurried him on shore. In reply to all inquires the same answer was given " it was by order of the Governor
 Besides the Governor, there were on the boat Judge Bennett, Lewis Com missioner of Immigration, Asa Hodge Representative of Crittenden county, and Newell, Representative of Desha county.
 The whole party remained on board last night, and will take the first ferry boat up to Marion this morning--it i' said for the purpose of Investigating the affairs in that unhappy region.

 At his residence, 6 miles west of Des Arc, on the 25th of January, after n long and painful illness, Mir. John H.. Evans, aged 55 years.
 The deceased was born in Fleming county. Kentucky, but for n number of years has lived in this county, where he had made number of friends who will sincerely mourn his loss.

We sympathize with the friends and family of the de- ceased, and can only direct them in their sorrow to Him who tempers the wind to thc shorA lamb, with an admo- nition to emulate the virtues of their departed husband, father and friend.

think this is ridiculous nonsense. The crop is larger this season than last, and still bears higher price and less fluc- tuating.
