The Arkansas Troubles.

At length the proclamation of mar
tiaI law in Pope county, Arkansas, has
been issued, and the militia has again
been let loose upon that section. 1t is
only remarkable that the outrages pnt
upon the inhabitants of that county
have not earlier produced in retaliation
a sufficient excuse for this cougenial re-
medy. The militia now cnCamped near

less citizens far and near. There is no
doubt that its efficiency will speedily
revive under thus call, ana that farmers
who refuse TO vote for Grant will again
see their stock run off by these free
riders, and Conservative store keepers
again stand by under guard to witness
the rihing Of their establishments. But,
strangely enough, the people OF Pope
county are at the same imc reported
as peacoabic, and the misguided fellow
who committed the last outrage against
the peace Of society is safely in the
hands OF the civil authorities.
The Intimate connection of this distu-
rbaucc with that of Il month ago is
plainly evident. The Sheriff, Deputy,

Neither side sacrificed anything, but
both united to carry out a certain pol

Our Own Cause.

The great majority Of the people Of
the North hold no enmity towards the
South. They feel that the rebellion wa,
a great mistake and a great crime, but
they under stand how the South was led
into it, how the war grew from Inc seed,
of "irrcpressibIc conflict" aud now that
slavery is abolished, and the blacks are
armed with the ballot for their own
protection. the Southern people every
where accepting the results Of the war,
aed accommodating themselves to the
new order Of things as rapidly as could
be expected, they ale ready to "casp
hands across the bloody chasm" This
is the general feeling; but there is II
party, or faction, whose course towards
the Souil, i not acrua,cd by hate, il
not characterized by justice, aud this
party, or tHcll)u. has been active and
powerful enough TO control national
legislation in regard to the South ever
since the war ended. Soon after the
war closed, there was Il general acQuic-
scence IN the situation among the South
ern people. They saw that they were
beaten aud were disposed to 90 to work
TO rebuild the material prosperity Of
their section. AT this point the "carpe'-

The mystery which has, for two
weeks, Shrouded the question whether
Senator Wilson did, or did not, write
the letter to the Brooklyn German
Committee, has ut last been solved.
and not to the credit of that gentleman.
The letter, it would now appear, was
actually written by Mr.. Hermann
Askcnasy, a Government official in
Boston, and friend of Mr.. Wilson.
who often aids him in his German
correspondence. Mr.. Wilson, it would
seem, was aware that this letter was
written-knew what its character was
and approved Of its being signed for
him and sent in his behalf to the par
ties to whom it was addressed. And
yet Mr. Wilson has openly stated that
he was not the author of the Brooklyn
letter. There was time when this
would have deserved shorter word
than forgetfulncsS.

lrct that within the past few months
only has Grant conceived this warm

cheating forage contracts and rotten
clothing have heretofore been the re-
ciplentS Of Executive favor. For
them the fat places have been kept,
while here and there an unfortunate
cripple, damaged at Gettysburg or ON

Malvern Hill, July |. 1862. Edge
worth was appointed Il messenger in
the Costom House by the late Pres
ton King and for years has supported

Edgeworth preferred GREELEY to

clare his preference. On the 9th inst.

Arthur informing him that his service
were no longer required Edgeworth
will not attend the Anthony-Burnside

gloss and freshness Of youth. Thin
hair is thickencd, falling hair checked,
and badness often, though not always,
cured by its use. Nothing can restore
the hair where the follicles are de-
stroycd, or the glands atrophied and
decayed; but such as remain can be
saved by this application, and stimu-
lated into activity, so that u new
growth of hair is produced Instead
of fouling the hair with a pasty sedi-
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent badness. The
restoration of vitality it gives to the
scalp arrests and prevents the forma-
ton of dandruh, which is often so I'M
clearly and offensive Free from those
dcleterious substances which make
some preparations dangerous and inju-
rious to the hair, the Vigor can only
benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can be found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it does
not soil white cambria, and yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it rich, glossy
lustre, and a grateful perfume.
