MEMPHIS, March 6.-The Appeals
Little Rock special tonight says after the
agitstion for the past two months there
is a calm, which has set in upon both
branches of the Legislature. Lieut.. Gov.
johnson occupied the chair this morning
in the Senate for the first time since he
was made aware of the intention of the
Clayton party to impesch him. There
are many cOnjectures as TO who will be
elected to the United States Senate. There
are but few names mentioned, and the
Clayton party in both houses are very
reticent. which confirms the belief that
they will make an effort to impeach
johnson and re-elect Clayton. 1t is pre-
sumed their plans will be made known
within few days.

MEMPHIS, March 6.-An Avalanche
Little Rock special tonight says political
matters have been quiet to day. The
Lieutenant Governor presided in the Sen
ate to-day for the first time since the i'm
parchment of the Governor. MIR. NAL
lory from the Franchise Committee gave
notice that he would offer an Omnibus
franchise bill relieving the disabilities of
certain citizens, white and colored. A
bill to appoint IN Assistant Commissioner
of Immigration TO induce colOred immi-
grants was called up and elected warm
discussion. 1t was attacked by several
Clayton Senators, when the whites
pitched into them good fashioned
for thus going back on him and his race
who had stood up so manfully for the
Governor.
There is considerable csucussing about
the Senatorship. White, a colored Sens-
tor from Phillips county, is working very
hard for it, and should the Clayton men
go back on him he will be thorn IN
heir side.

have been IL killing the sheep.
