THE ARLINGTON ESTATE.-Thc question OF
rcInrlrSin@ Mrs. Robert Il. Lee for the Ar
iington estate is again being agitated III Wash
iu"ton, and it is said That the Judcial y
Committee will shortly consider the same and
in all probability recommend an approprll-
ton to liquidatc it. We think that from the
peculiar circumstances connected with this
claim it will. sooner OF later, be recognized
is Just and equitable by the Federal Govern
lncnt; and. this being the case, the sooner 1t
is recognized and paid the better. All that
the Federal Government could have done IN
the way of contiscltin@ the property was to
have made its contiscation operative during
the lifetime Of General Lee; and the tax
sale authorized by the Government should
not have been made Il cover for unconStltC-
tional corli>cation. That WIS not the Orgi-
nal object, and the Government has an op-
portunity in this case to show that 1t was
not. II is known that Senator Lewis Is IN
favor Of the measure, and claracterlZes it as
an act OF justice on the part of the Federal
Government. We think that large majority
Of the Republican journals throughout the
North would strongly urge the measure If
they deemed it necessary to do so in order to
influence their representatives and senator's
i'm that direction. The Cincinnati Gazette,
the leading Republican journal of Ohio,
strongly advocates it, and says that "persons
may make savage declarations against 'rebels ,
to staye off reflection in this affair, but an
honorable nation cannot maintain the posi-
ton which ours holds as to this estate"
1t is said that many leading Republican
senators favor the appropriation us not only
equitable, but due to the national dignity and
honor.-State Journal,

From the Aurora tIlliuois) Beacon.

Orrin Il. Whitford, formerly Of this city,
who had lately taken up L soldiers claim 1T
Oakland, Jewett county, Kansas, started on
the 9th of November with four others to hunt
buffalo, intending to begonc about ten days.
The party found the buffalo out farther than
they expected. On the 10th heavy rain
commenced falling, lasting about twenty-four
hours. then turning to snow with very strong
wind. cleared up Oh the 18th plercIngly cold.
On the ed the wife Of Whittord and other
friends were informed that five men had been
found frozen to death. The father-iz-laW Of
Whitlord and four others started in search.
They were gone eight days, and brought in
the bodies of four of the lost men the fifth
was still alive, but with both limbs most fear
fully frozen; he had not had Il morsel to
eat for five days. 1t would seem that
the party took with them wagon, which
they left i'll ravine. They afterward found
it covered with ten feet Of SNOW, and started
back toward home with their horses. Two
of them, after travelling six miles, gave out
the third, four miles further, and he too
gave out; young Whitford pushed on for
three miles yet further, then persisted.
Whitford, who was an Odd-Fellow, and
wore Il pin of that Order, was found by i
party of strangers, one Of whom belonged to
the Order, who buried his remains, and left
his pockct-book and pin with the nearest
sheriff. His body, with the others, was after
ward taken to Oakland. Wbitford was for
merly member Of Company A, Thirty->ixth
Illinois cavalry. He was IL line soldier, and
thought much of by his officers and conf
r.,tes, kind and loving husband and father,
son and brother.

Creek foundry, in this county, was consumed
by fire on Thursday night, 1st instant. Thu
lire was caused tv a defective chimney. Mr.
Flippen lost nearly all of his furniture anc
his books and papers, covering large transac
fions for many years. We have heard nc
estimate of the loss, but suppose it to have becl
very considerable. There was no Insurance

covered the flames were under full Roadway

Mr. Rothschids, of Lake Providence,
Louisiana, has shipped two bales of Gotten
for competition to the st. Louis fair. One
bale weighs 527 pounds, and was raised by
Oliver Washington. The other bale weighs
452 pounds, and was raised by Mr.. William
Ray. The cotton is of the first class raised
in the State of Louisiana, and we should
suppose that Eastern manufacturers who
wanted a fine staple could not do better
than to visit the St. Louis fair during the
fair and purchase the various bales sent
here to compete for premiums. OF course
it will be conceded that the finest cotton
of each competing plantation will be Sc
lected; therefore, if the entire lot shipped
here we're bought by one factory, that fac
tory would have the best collection of cot
ton that could be offered in this or any
other market. AS this cotton will be sold
at about the market price, we can see no
reason why it would not pay the lnanufact-
urers of the East we'll to attend our fair
and buy the cotton shipped here for pre-
MUM competition.

Hearne, Texas,

Hearne is thus described by the free
Press:
1t is situated at the junction of the Inter
national and Texas Central railroads, l2O
miles from Houston, il Robertson county.
The first town let was sold March 10, 49, l..
1t now has $500 Industrious, thriving inbab-
itants. As a class, our citizens are law
abiding and hospitable.
The International Railroad has built a
large, substantial brick rOundhouse al TINS
place, with small machine shop. me
general Offices Of TIE road are also situated
in town. The two roads have railroad
eating house here-the best one III the
State.
There are about fifty stores in town; all
Of them have a good run Of business, aAd
seem to be prosperous. There IS one bank
ing house, two newspapers, one bakery,
and other requisites TO make up thriving
little town. The total amount of cash CAPT
tai actually employed in business here is
something like $70G, COO There will he
shipped this season between 5000 and 7OOe
bales Of cotton, large quantity Of wool
and hides and other produce.
The trade Of lumber at this place prom
ises to be Of considerable importance, and
now presents a fine field for capital and
business tact North and west of Us lay
the most fertile portions OF Texas, and
where there is but little timber
The International railroad opens route
to the timber Of Northeastern Texas, which
might be so controlled az to supply the de-
1nand Of Northern Texas. This is the proper
pcint at which the lumber should be col
lected for distribution. This trade is capable
of employing thousands Of dollars.
The present trade of Hearne is good. The
future destiny Of the place is beyond the
comprehension of most people. Located as
we age, in the centre of the richest cotton
region in the world, surrounded by fertile
| lands, and with the railroad facilities we
now possess Hearne is destined to become
one OF the largest and richest cities Of the
| Southwest.
The far-famed BrazOs bottom that lies
| adjacent to this place is capable Of support
ing more people than are now in the entire
| State, while farther west are the rich lands
and productive farms of Bell county,
wu0se people are now rapidly finding it to
their interest to trade at this place. East
of US lies country not SO fertile, but still
very productive and healthy filed with
good, industrious and Independent farmers.
By a reference to the map Of Texas it
will be seen that Hearne is splendidly stu
ated: it is bound to become general dis
tributing point; its destiny is inevitable,
