Arkansas Politics.

LITTLE Rock, July ~.
James Brooks, a leader of q faction Of
the Republican party opposed TO Clayton,
made n speech on Wednesday to crowd
of negroes near this place, in which he
was particularly severe on Clayton, freely
charging him with many outrages against
the people. He advised the negroes TO
vote for honest men, even II they were
Democrats, and that many Of the latter
could be trusted great deal more than
some Of their party. He favored amnesty.
The speech was loudly applauded by the
negroes. Quite war has been going on
for some 1imc between the Clayton and
Brooks factions Of this cohnty for the ne.
gro strength. The latter has II tall his own
way so lnr.

What We Think Of II.

To tho Editors Of the Ihtellgencer:
The citizens ol the Seventh Ward re-
gret to learn that we are likely to lose the
convenience of the street cars, which
have now become, we think, q necessity.
This comes from the Bridge Company.
They want their "pound Of flesh, and
mor. Twenty-Five per cent Of the re-
ceipts Of the Bridgeport line Is now paid
the Bridge Company, but they want more
how much we do not know, perhaps
all, as that view would accord with the
known liberality Of the corporation. Now
1t is'a well known fact that 10 per cent Of
the passengers carried by the Bridgeport
branch are the citizens Of the Seventh
ward, all Of whom have paid, or do pay,
their toll monthly or yearly, so'of course
the Bridge Company receives toll twict
on such travel. II Is often asked why
should the citizens Of the Seventh Ware
be subject to the Special tan Of SO 90 pei
year for the privilege of going from one
ward to the Other-irOm their homes u
place Of business, church, &c. Does the
citizen of the Third or Fourth Ward pay
n special tax for passing into the Fifth
Was not the new iron bridge built out OI
the taxes Of the whole city2 Yet II was
not built specially to benefit the citizens
Of the Seventh Ward, but more directly
to benefit the citizens Of other wards.
Yet they pay no special tax for It's use
Why in Justice should the citizens Of the
Seventh Ward pay a special tax
We will scarcely submit to the with
drawnl Of the street cars from such {
cause, tamely. Let the citizens Of I'll
Ward take some action at once in the mat
ter, as we learn the present arrangement

Rs.tle,, Church pl,turbOrs.

To the Editors Of the Intelllgeneer.
There is q certain class Of young lsdies
and gentlemen who make a practice Of
going out Of church before the sermon Is
ended. Sometimes they commence to go
ont after they have been In a few minutes
and keep II up until the close of church.
II is very annoying for members Of tue
church 10 have their attention divert.
ed from the preacher in that inannef,
and docs not speak very well for those
persons who make a practice OF going
ont Of church before II is over. Nothing
Is more discouraging to preacher than
10 have the people keep going out Of
church, and he cannot be blamed for
thinking his labors are not appreciated.
Chapline Street Methodist Church has
long been annoyed in this manner. II
people cannot 60 to church with the in.
tentlon Of staying until church l. done,
they had better stay at home.
There is another matter that wish to
speak about ard that Is young persons
laughing and whispering in church, II
does not show very good manners, and
certainly does not show any respect for
the church.
I trust there will be no occasion tc
speak OF these matters again, and hope
that Young pSrsons will observe proper
decoium IN church, Il they do notln any

Reply of the Pope to the Roman
Academy. ?.


RoME, July 27.
The Pope, in reply to the address of
the Roman Academy demonstrating
against doctrines which are antagunistlc
to the spirit Of modern times, disclaims
any intentions on the part Of the Papacy
to lay claim to the power TO disposess
sovereigns, or to assume direction over
the worldly affairs Of nations. In ancient
times, says His Holiness, Christian ma.
tions revered the Pope as an arbiter be.
tween the sovereign and the people in
cases Of disagreement, and great services
have been rendered by the Papacy in
preventing war.
The Syro Mazonte and GrecOmelchite
patriarchs, the Grecomelchite Arch Bish.
op of Alleppo, and thirteen Hungarian
Arch Bishops, have forwarded TO RomC
their submission TO the dogma Of the in
iallibility Of the Pope.

Martins Ferry Locals.
MARTINsFERRY, O., Feb

MART1NSFERRY, w., req. D.
The matter of Rail Road from
Wheeling, or the eastern part of this
county, is in high state of fermenta-
ton, and there is now but little doubt
that there will be one built over one of
the four routes now under cOnsidera-
tion. Bellaire, with her usual gO-a-head-
ativeness, is straining every nerve to
secure the terminus of the road at that
point, and if energy and indomitable
pluck will secure it, then they will get
It. Bridgeport will look after her own
interests alone; and if they can secure
the terminus of the road there, as a
matter of course they will work for it,
If not, they will do nothing. Mar
tinsferry has but lately walked up to
her interests. Those most interested
are now making preliminary survey
across the hill back of town through
the county to a point on Big Short
Creek. 1t is said by these parties that
the most northern route now proposed,
can be shortened three or four miles
between Piney Fork and Martinsferry.
This route will secure to Wheeling and
the eastern part of this county trade
that now all goes to Pittsburgh, whi lie
the central route ii. e. up Wheeling
creek via Bridgeport, will gain but
little, or in fact no trade other than she
now has by the way of the National
pike. Ny opinion is that the road will
be located where it suits the men who
have the most energy and work the
most for its accomplishment. Y
Comrade Theodore Cook was buried
here last Friday with military hon
ors; eight of his army "mess" acted
as pall-bearers, and guard of eight
from his old company with muskets
fired the salute over his grave. The
flies and drums were of his old regi-
ment. The funeral was largely at
tended.
Our Threshing Machine men have
all commenced their, next seasons
work; all running full shop of hands.
Mr.. John Shipman, formerly foreman
in Swartz & Sons shop has gone to
Bellaire and assumed the position OF
foreman in the large joint stock Agri-
cultural Works there. 1t is well fol
them that they have secured the ser.
vices af one who understands so fully
all the nai,e,tiae of work required in a
place of that kind.
There is trouble brewing. The Coun
Gil have passed very stringent liquor
law, which, it is said, will make lots o.
trouble if fully carried out. The price
of jugs has advanced ten per cent. with
in the last week; hence it is reasonable
to infer that a jug line will be estab-
lished at once.
Sorry to learn from the last CHRoNI
Gle that the way of the court was sc
