An Arkansas Contest.

We have received from Hon. j. Boles.
member of the House Of Representatives
from Arkansas, a copy of the report of the
Commitnee on Elections on his contest for
the seat occupied by Mr.. Edwards, together
with a report of the action of the House adj
uniting Mr.. Boles to seat in that body.
SUpon this matter Washington special 30
the New York Tribune says:
The House disposed to-day of the most
remarkable election contest that has arisen
within the memory of the oldest member.
BY unanimous vote, it was decided that
John Edwards had no right to seat as the
representative of the third district OF Ar
kansas, which he has held for nearly one
half of the entire term for which he was not
elected. and his opponent was. Mr.. Boles,
the contestant, had over 1000 majority, &C.
.cordinp to the evidence of the State officers,
who canyassed the vote. He has been rob-
bed of one-balf of his term of service in Con-
rress by the gross outrage OF governor
CIAyton. who falsely certified that Edwards
was elected, in the face of the Official count
The House was of one mind as to the MUS
tice Mr.. Boles had suffered, and not the
least extraordinary feature OF the case was
mat Ed wards, at the close of a halfhonr's
srcnment in his own behalf. failed to con-
y;nce a single member, Republican or Demo-
cratic. that he had any claim to the seat he
occupied.
The Tribune says editorially:
The House of Representatives has done
an honest thing in admitting boles' from
tha third Arkansas district, to the seat
which Edwards has illegally held ever since
the session began. The rule has been to
admit to seat the nllnber who held the
legal certificate of election inns is correct ,'e
and fair under all circumstances; but the
delay in this special case has kept Mr.
Boles out of his own for an unreasonable
length of time Governor NOW SENATOR

and principles of law, gave The certlh ea1

votes, instead of to Boles, Republican, VINO

Of power by the Governor, who presumed
20 pass upon, the legality OF returns after
they Lad been canyassed, has been very
properly rebuked by the House, both par

What FOrney Proposes to Do.

The Washington special Of the St. Louis
Republican says:
While Forney is very careful to state
that he will not oppose the reelection OF
Grant if he is renominated, it nevertheless
appears that he has decided to cut loose
from the Republican ring of Office holders
of Philadelphia, who are something on the
Tammany order, and who are all supporting
the administration, and proposes to JON the
Republican reformers in driving these office
holders out of power. The former element
attempted to dictate to Colonel Forney
what course he should pursue in the recent
important senatorial election in Philadel-
phia, whereupon he sent word to the Presi-
dent that his resignation was at his disposal.
The President sent word in return that he
did not want it, but Forney made up his
mind that he preferred to remain untraxh-
meled, and therefore sent his resignation
in writing. The President will reply to-
morrow, declining to accept the same, but
Mr.. Forney insists upon its acceptance. He
returned to Philadelphia this evening.

FOrHey's RESIGNATION.

The subjoined letter was handed to the
President Saturday afternoon by friend
of Colonel Forney:
WASHINGTON, February 10, 1872.
To lis Excelency President Grant:
DEAR SIR-When you did me the honor
to tender me the appointment of collector
of the port of Philadelphia, l accepted it
most reluctantly because apprehended it
would seriously interfere with my business,
and especially with my independence as a
journalist. Ten months experience have so
entirely confirmed this impression, that l
find myself constrained to send you this,
my resignation of the office, to take effect
on tie first of March next. [ shall then re-
turn to my profession as far more con-
genial field Of usefulness, and devote all
my efforts to my newspaper and to the
energetic support of the principles of the
great Republican party. Most earnestly
thanking you for your kindness and con-
sideration, | remain, dear General, very
truly yours. j. w. FORNEY.

Democrat says:

A Washington special to the st. Louis
Democrat says:
Some Southern Senators, friends of am
nesty, express themselves confident of the
passage of the House amnesty bill, now lying
on the Senate table. While they anticipate
that Senator Sumner viii again offer his civil
rights amendment, there will be found in
the Senate a sufficient number either to vote
ont the amendment as not german to the
bill or to defeat it by direct party vote,
having made their record on that question,
which was carried by the casting vote of the
Vice President They say its further con-
sideration is useless, as an amnesty BILL
which requires a two-thirds vote, can not be
passed. With such an incumbrance as
Summers out of the way, the bill, doubtless,
can secure the required numberof votes to
pass it, The friends of amnesty are in high
spirits at the prospect of success.

Killed.-On Friday morning last lad
named Millard YOutzy,aged about 10 years,
son of John Youtzy of Bratton twp, Milf
fin county was killed under the following
distressing circumstances. He was en-
ployed at saw mill, in the mountains, and
was riding mule, with bag OF corn and
tin bucket upon its back. The rattling
of the kettle frightened the mule, and it
set off on run. Some men in the road
attempted to stop it, when it broke in
to the wood, running down the mountain
pell-mell over rocks, timber, and one fence.
The boy fell soon after the mule took to the
wood, but his foot stuck fast in the girth,

and he was Of course dead when the mule
stopped. True Democrat.
