ARKANSAS.
Distriet-Deputy q. S. MarshaIs to be
Diseharged-OpiniOns Of the Press
Of the State In the Premises.

LITTLE Rock, September 28.-The
United States marshal for the western
district Of Arkansas has announced that
on the first Of October he will discharge
all his deputies who have been employed
heretofore to arrest vioIatOrs OF the law
against United States citizens in the In
dian country. This IS done, it is stated,
on account of complaints of the depart.
ment Of Justice at the cost of the mar
shal's office for the district. Comment
Ing on this the Fort Smith Ildependent
says: "Congtess made the laws and re-
fuses to organize the Indian country
into Territory; therefore it Is the duty
Of the department to enforce the present
laws, and keep down the desperadoes
aud murderers who infest the Indian
country and the west. If congress
deems the enforcing Of the laws too ex-
pensive in the present state Of affairs, il
hal better try its hand on a regular or
gaDized government over in that cOun-
try"
The Little Rock Gazette also saws,
"There Is one thing certain, the gene
raj government must either exercise re-
newed vigilance to keep down outlaw:
in the,Indian country or provide a Terri
tOrial government for it. The RESPONSE
bility cannot be escaped, and the with.
draWsl of the force by the United States
marshal from the Territory only give.
license to the bad men of that country
to rob, plunder and murder at will, fO
the Indian laws, as administered, arr
almost as bad as no laws"

POSTOFFICE DEFAULTER.
The Postmaster at Pittsburg, Pennsyl'
Vania, Arrested, Charged with De-
falcatiOns TO the Amount
of $4,000.

PITTsBURG, September 26.-The Pitts
burg postOffice was taken possession oi
this afternoon by Major Pethbridge,
chief Of the special service bureau Of
the post-office department, and Colonel
John H. Stewart, the postmaster, was
arrested as defaulter. Numerous COM
plants have reached the postoffice de-
partment in Washington from business
men in this city that large number of
letters containing remittances had been
lost at different times, and an investiga-
ton was ordered sumo time ago by the
postoffice department. There was
found to be general disorgaHization
in the working force of the office. The
first evidence of any defalcation was
when drafts on the Pittsburg postoffice,
amounting to sixteen thousand dollars,
in favor of the Panhandle railroad COM
pany for mail services, were returned to
the department protested, and at time,
according to the postmaster's accounts,
when he should have had funds on hand
TO pay the department. This caused
prompt action in taking possession of
the office and suspending the postmaster.
There are also believed to be defects in
postage-stamps and mOney-order ac-
counts. The whole amount will reach
about thirty-three thousand dollars.
Steward has given bail to the amount
of sixty thousand dollars.

which weathered the panic-storm and

banks should be mislead by our silence
into a conclusion at variance with the
business interests of one or the other of
these banking institutions.

The fever still continues its work Of
death. For the most part 1t is confined
to the locality where it was first de-
veloped. Sprinkling cases have oe-
CURED here and there in the city, but
these have been in every instance
traced to causes issuing from the in
fected district. The disease has been
stripped of much of the terrorism that
accompanied its earlier manifesto
tions, and men begin TO regard
it as an affliction that can be successfully
controlled by medical treatment. There
is no longer that nameless dread, which
the very name Of the fever has hereto
fore conveyed, and even the infected
district is now daily visited by many of
our citizens. Sanitary precautions are,
of course, still necessary, and disinfect-
ing agents are being used everywhere
( throughout the city. We have given
/ daily in our columns full aud reliable
reports of those who have fallen victims
to the pestilence, and although the list
is sad and long one, our readers will
at once see that since the breaking out
Of the malady the average deaths have
not been over sevenp per diem. An unwar-
ranted and causeless excitement has con-
I veyed to the public outside of Memphis
a different impression, but such are the
facts. The temporary hospital, under
the care Of DR.. Luke P. Blackburn, is
now in working order, comfortably fitted
up, and will perform an important part
in aiding the expeliing Of the dis
ease. The Howard association and
other benevolent societies are still in
dustriously prosecuting their christian
work. These people are giving the
community lessons in practical chris
tianity. We have unbounded respect
for that faith which illustrates itself
by works. Faith without good
works is dead" exclaimed the
great Apostle Paul, when address,
ing a generation as full of re-
ligious sophistry as our own. Faith,
hope and charity are the triune divini-
ties of the christian church; "but the
greatest of these is chariiy.p The time
will come when Memphis will be glad
and gay once more; when her streets
shall again give cheerful echo to the
hurrying footsteps Of busy thousands
when her churches, schools, courts,
thesters and stores shall again be
crowded with men and women intent
on the pursuit of praise, pleasure or
profit; when the psnic-ghosts shall be
as completely forgotten as if they never
came
"In such questionable shapes"
to make day and night hideous; when
sadness, sorrow and tears shall give
place to mirth, joy and laughter; then
will the finger of appreciation point out
the man who gave proof of no sham
christianity in ministering to the sick
and the afflicted during the continuance
of the pestilence-whose faith was shown
by his works-one of whom it may be
said
"Among the faithleSS, faithful only he:

From an Occasional Correspondent
BOLIVAR, Tenn, September %, 1873.
We daily look with the liveliest interest
over the columns of your valuable
paper to ascertain who has fallen a vic
tim to the prevailing disease in Mem
phis, and wonder when the time will
come that epidemic will cease TO az
flict our stricken city. Scourged by
smallpox first, then cholera, and now
yellow-fever, her material interests and
enterprises necessarily languish. But
the day is coming when, with a provi-
dent city government, she will be pro-
tected against a return Of these disas-
ters. We cannot see why Memphis
should be any more subject to these
plaques than Washington, Wilmington
or Louisville. And yet the residents of
these cities are never driven from their
homes and business by epidemics.

RESULTS OF THE DAY.
INCREASING CONFIDENCE.

NEW YORK, September 26.-The gen.
eral feeling in financial circles has de-
cidedly improved. The days record
closes with some confidence in the belief
that the bottom Of the panic has been
reached in this city, and there is fair
prospect that, when the stock exchange
opens, they will be left to arrange, in
way of settlements, between brokers, so
there will be no new failures to an
nounce. The cards from the banking
houses also increase confidence, and will
bring some money into the street as an
assistance to general business, while it
will expedite encouragement of financial
matters and aid in the prompt payment
of old Indebtedness when the suspended
houses resume. President Verridge, of
the merchants bank, appointed COM
mittee of nine, to-day, to investigate the
condition of the banks and suggest such
practical reforms as may he deemed ne
cessary.

THE GREENRACK FAMINE.

New YORK, September 26.-The city
is being drained of money at a pretty
lively rate. Since Saturday last the
outgoing moneys through the Adams ex-
press have been about 81, 100000 daily,
while that coming, exclusive of what
went to the treasury, amounted to about
$500, 600. The United States commits
sion have been sending out from $780,
600 to SS00,000 a day for several days
past, while the receipts through that
medium are very small. The National
express company is carrying away an
amount about three times as large as
usual at this season of the year, and the
American express company is doing
likewise.
