MEMPHIS. Dec. 2l.


The last person who Left Lake
Village, the scene Of late ontragos, in
Chico county, Ark, reports that hs
was ordered by armed negroes on
tho bank TO return, which he refused
to do. He finally succeeded in esca J.
ping. There was great excitement
at the time, and from the screams Of
white women and children, who were
seen running down to the levee, 10
was supposed that an attempt had
been made to ravish the few white
women who were unable to leave.
Capt. Walker, the Republican,
Sheriff Of the county, has made an
application for regular troops to quell
tho disturbance. 1t is feared that il
the militia are sent there, (they be-
ing colored) they will fraternixe with
the insurgents. Every white citisen
who could obtain conveyance. has
left the country, which is being
marauded by armed bands of negroes.
who have said that they will not dis.
band until they are allowed to settle
all Disputes with their employers.
The Governor has sent his Adju
tant to the scenes Of the'disturbancs
but in the meantime leading Repub
Iicaas and Conservative citisens oI
the county have united in petition
for regular troops.
Very cold weather is reported
east. with the thermometer ranging
from fifteen to twenty degrees below
zero, a. d at Boston it is 50 degrees
below, All trains on the Hudson
River road are delayed.

SAN FRANCIsco, Dec. 12.
Heavy rains and high winds are
are prevailing throughout the State.
The Commissioners have com.
menced proceedings to wind up the
Peoples Insurance Company, which
is bankrupt.
Counsel for Farwell 4 Co, and
other policy holders, have COM
rnenced proceedings in bankruptcy
against the Pacific Insurance compa-
ny, which viii necessltate the closing
up of its affairs at any sacrifice. 1t
is believed that this precipitatod
action will result in reducing tho
amount which policy holders would
have received had the directors been
permitted to manage the assets.
Union Insurance Company's assets
are all paid; Firemen's nearly all.
Frisco merchants are heavy losers
by the delay in the delivery of holi-
day goods from New York in consc.
quence Of snow. Some threaten TO
commence suits against the Union
Pacific railroad.
The Democratic Legislative caucus
nominated Judge W. l.. Wallace for

A rain storm has reigned furiousIy
since last Sunday morning. The fall

Early in this Senatorial campaign,
when the Des Moines Register was
pretending 70 be neutral in the fight
by coquetting ~ith al the candidates,
it deemed it to be due its readers to
publish al the ISLANDERS which were
coined to ruin Mr.. Harlan, and occa-
sionally an unfriendly word against
Mr.. Allison-as . mere matter Of
news, you know-and still later II
has even given currency to Boyn-
tons stories now that it has landed
where everybody knew it was desti-
ned, to-wit: into the Allison camp
In the course Of human events it 80
happens that some Of the newspapers
Of the State are re.publishing serious
assaults made on the character oi
Mess. Allison and Wilson also thro'
the Cincinnati Gazette, the original
vehicle through which Boynton as
sailed Harlan.
Are the readers Of the Rsgister all
Allison men, now that the editor Of
that paper, after deal Of twistifca
tion has at length defined its posi-
tion, or have they only tooth TO,
scandal against one man in the fight
We are led TO make these sugges
tions, because as mere matter o.
news, we have failed to observe the
Cincinnati G0sefte's canards abou'
Allison or Wilson dished up to it
readers in theRegister.

COLUMBIA, Dec. 70.
ln the Legislature yesterday on
the question ofimpeachment Of Gov.
Scott, the Bowenites representing
the minority, managed to get pos
session Of the floor and kept it until
the hour fixed for adjournment.
They will hold it oil day tomorrow
to keep back the vote, when the
House will take . recess until Jan.
6th, leaving the impeachment ques.
tion open.
COLUMBIA, Dec, 21.
Much excitement prevailed to-day
over resolution introduced for the
impeachment of Gov. Scott. The
majority is in his favor, and they con-
slider Bowen's statement as to the
over issue Of bonds 10 greatly exag.
gerated, and the prosecution Of the
Governor as malicious. A spicy oor.
respondence was introduced By
Jones, Q oolored member from
Georgetown, which shows that Bow
en- himself prevented Gov. Scott from
prohibiting sale Of bonds by Kemp
ton, State Agent, in New York. The
Governor had retained Judge Bar
rett tor this purpose. The resolu
tions for impeachment will be voted
down tomorrow.

The Texas State Journa! says that
the Governor of Kentucky, in his
last annual message, says: II will
never consent to the giving of one
dollar for the education Of the blacks
in this State" Therein spoke the
true sentiment Of the Democracy.
Kentucky 10 par erceslesce the banner
Democratic State, her majorities are
immense and uniform, and they can
be counted on at every election.
When Kentucky speaks, therefore,
she speaks for the great political
party she has adopted and cherished
and through her Governor a. mouth
Jieoe she has pronounced against
public schools for the colored race.
The spirit Of Democracy is cvery-
whore the same, though sometimes
cloaked by prudence and expediency.
When it is free to assert itself it
speaks with the voice Of Kentucky,
and is the friend Of inequality, injus-
tice and caste. 1t has no part nor
lot in the future of the American Re
public, and though it will dic hard,
die it must before the rising sun Of
universal liberty.

"Grants Civil Service Reform recon-

Two men were yesterday discover.
ed dying in an unfinished shanty, in
the West Division. One of them is
now dead. and the other is dying. 1t
is supposed that while drunk, they
went into the shanty, which was
owned by one Of them, and laid down
before fire of coke, which was put
in to dry the walls, and was suffo-
Gated by the fumes.
1t Is showing here this morning,
but the weather is moderate, and
work on brick buildings in tho
course Of erection is progressing

President Thiers' recommendation,
in his recent message, that the
French army DO increased to three
hundred thousand men, with an an
nual contingent Of ninety thousand,
seems . pretty strong confirmation
Of Prince Bismark's otficis' assertion
that France will seek her revenge in
q renewal Of the war rs soon as the
payment of the indemnity shall be
we'll off her hands. When Louis
Napoleon began his crusade on tho
German frontier his army numbered
only about two hundred thousand
men, though he thought it larg-
er than 1t was, and times OF
peace three hundred thousand
troops have generally been regarded
as sufficient for all purposes. But
the proposed contingent will serve to
swell the French army in very few
years to an almost fabulous size, and
Germany can scarcely fail TO see q
menace.in the proposition.

The New York Tribune defends
Governor Palmer vigorously, and al
leges that most of the Governors de-
famers know that he is right. L,-
gally right the Governor undoubted-
~ is. We do not begrudge him any
Of the shyster's glory which he seems
to covet. But We do charge Gov
ernor Palmer with lack Of practical
common sense. He seems 10 US very
much like the punc,ilious gentleman
who couldn't save the girl from
drowning--because he hadn', heen
introduced to her.
