The Merchants Dissatisfied.
NEW YORK, Nov. 21.-The Tribune says
that Gen. Arthur has some qualifications
for CustOmhouse cOlleci Orship; that he
lately held ten thousand dollar Tammany
office from which he was only driven on
the Iribtne'S exposure. He is a devoted
servant of the Murphy clique, but he is not
personally an Objectionable man.
The same paper also asserts that the
mercantile community are disappointed in
Arthur's appointment, particularly as he is
lawyer and politician.
Connolly 80 Escape with Impunity.
There are reports that COnnOllT's resig-
nation was forced from him by a promise
that he should not be prosecuted for his
doings by the city frauds. 1t is also alleged
to-day by the Tribune that there are rumOrs
of negotiations abroad by Connolly and his
son of several millions of city bonds which
do not appear in the list of city indebted
ness which are unauthorized. Connolly is
said to be preparing to visit Europe. 9th
ers of the ring are also said to be getting
ready to leave. Connolly's retirement will
have the effect to hasten Tweed'S resigna-
ton. The latter is said to be getting more
depressed every day.

The Tribune alleges that Collector Muir

A secret Military organization.
LITTLE Rock, ARK, Nov. ,21.-Tbe
Gazette to-day makes an expose Of secret
military organization called the Royal
Blues, now being organized extensively
throughout this State, under the instruc-
tons of Senator Clayton. In this society
none are admitted who are unfriendly to
Grant and Clayton. The Gazette calls the
particular attention of the Ku-Klux
committee of Congress to this
society, and says Arkansas is in worse
condition to-day than any of the Southern
States; that voters Of the State are disfran-
chised; the elections are but farces; the
Governor has power to appoint and remove
nearly every officer in the State, and if the
Ku-Klux Committee should fail to embody
these facts in their report it viii substantially
be what has been repeatedly told, that the
committee is a partisan affair in the interest
Of the President.

Radical Testimony to Radical Frauds.

patch from South Carolina confirms the
reports Of the fraudulent issue of South
Carolina bonds. The Governor charges
the Treasurer with a fraudulent issue of
South Carolina bonds, or rather Of reselling
bonds which had already been converted
into new bonds. The State Treasurer and
Finincial deny this, and say the Governor
is misinformed. The result of the matter
is, that the State Treasury is empty and the
credit of the State below par.

HOUSE OF REPREsENrATIvEs.

TUESDAY, Nov. 21.-The House met at
10 A. NJ, Speaker Richardson in the chair.
AN ORIGINAL PETITION.
Mr.. Colquitt handed in the following pc
tition:
DEC. Is, IS7O-State Of Tennessee
We, the undersigned petitioners pray
the honorable Legislature to grant
us a resolution to read as follows:
Entitled an act for the benefit of the noun
tain people, to prohibit spOrtsmen from
coming on the mountain with hounds and
dogs, as they kill up our sheep and hogs, and
our deer; and also from driving stock from
the valleys, who has no land or possessions
on the said Cumberland Mountain, such
hogs, cattle and sheep we have been i'm
posed on long enough, and We don't wish
to bear it any longer. We want an
act passed to this and give us
power to alter such laws as we see fit. We
wish to be free people, but as things is now,
we can't be. Gentlemen, consider this
matter; think of our interest. We think
this should be misdemeanOr to crowd a
man with stock, and him have no way to
help himself. Gentlemen, this is the sum
and substance Of the thing, and also it
should be made misdemeanOr to kill a
female deer between the LIST of January and
the LIST of October. We would like to have
it so that twelve of this body can fix it to
suit themselves, so as not to interfere with
the laws now in force.
The petition was signed by sixty citizens,
and was endorsed as follows: "Please
have this attended to, and Oblige, ETC., and
if man has land and will take stock on it,
let him keep it on the same, and not feed on
others.
Referred to the committee on Agriculture
and Manufactures.

THE LEASE OF THE PENITENTIARY.
Mr.. EnlOe called the attention of the
House to an anonymous communication in
a morning paper, charging that the Peniten-
tiary had been leased in the interests of
ring, and that the State might have re-
ceived twice as much for it as they have if
the sale had been properly advertised. Mr..
Enloe did not believe there was any ring in
the transaction, or that the sale had been
made in an underhand manner. !fanyone
was prepared to give more than the price
already offered the proper way to do was to
lay it, in black and white, before the House
for their action.
The communication was referred to the
Penitentiary Committee.

The Night Blooming Lily.

The following pretty legend is related
and devOutly believed by the inhabi-
tants of the Hartz Mountains, of the
night-bloOming lily of Lauenberg:
Beautiful Alice dwelt with her mother
i'm a small cottage at the foot of Hartz
Mountains. Her principal occupation
was that of gathering forest straw-that
is, the foliage of the fir and pine tribe,
which is very much used in certain parts
of Germany as stufiing for beds, etc.
Thus was the maiden's occupation when
the Lord of Lauenburg Castle rode by
With willy words he extrolled her
looks, and swOre that she was too pretty
to be hid away in n PEASANTS cot, and
begged her to come and dwell in his
lordly castle, where she would have
nothing to do but command, and where
all would obey her. The simple girl
was dazzled by the brilliant prospect,
but, true to her simplicity, flew to her
mother, relating all that had transpired.
The terrified mother wept bitterly over
her darling's communications; for too
well she knew the character of Lauen-
burg's dissolute baron. Hastily packing
up few household treasures, she carried
Off her wondering and sorrowful child

poor Alice might rest in security. Not
long, however, had the simple girl been
immured in the holy edifice before the
enraged noble discovered her retreat
and, determined to obtain his prey, as
sembled his vassals, forced an entranc,
70 the convent, and seizing the object o.
his passion, bore her, half dead witt
fear, to his castle. On arriving at mid
night in the garden in front of his EN-
battled dwelling, he alighted, with hi
senseless burden in his arms; but. as h,
attempted TO enter the castle, the guar
dian spirits of the place snatched tn,
poor maiden from his grasp, and on tn
very spot where her feet had been
sprang up the beautiful lily of lauren
burg. The annual appearance of tn
lily at midnight. is anxiOusly looked for
ward to by the inhabitants Of the Hartz
and many of them are said to perform
nightly pilgrimage to see it, returnin
to their homes overpowered by its daz
zling beauty, and asserting that il
splendor is so great that it sheds beam
Of light on the valley below.
