LITTLE Rock, April 9.-AtS:3O o clock
this morning two Baxter men, standing
near the southeast corner of Main and

pulled out pistol and fred at the Bax-

and the negro shot dead. This was the
occasion of numerous other shots-aboat

The Upton Record, in commenting
upon recent remarks of the LEDGER in
reference to the late colored convention
at Nashville, says:
The above is true beyond question,
but we think that the white people of
Tennessee should not hold all Of her
colored citizens responsible for the in
sane rawlings of few impudent and
malignant negro politicians. Even
these are bounded on by still more
despicable pack of desperate white ad-
Tenturers. the breath..of whose nostrils de-

NEW YORK.

New York, May 9.-Preparations for
the pilgrimage of members of the Cath
ole Church to Rome have been per-
fected, and those who are to take the
Journey will leave this city on the steam
ship Pereire Saturday next. The do
cese of Fort Wayne, Indiana, will fur
nish the largest number, and of one
hundred pilgrims who will compose the
party twenty. will be clergymen.
New York has very light representa-
ton. The highest Episcopal officer
accompanying the pilgrims will be
Bishop Drenger, "a native of Ohio. but
now presiding over the diocese of Fort
Wayne. On the evening of Ascension
Thursday, May l4th, a reception is to
be rendered the pilgrims by the Xavier
Union. The pilgrims will assemble at
8 pm. on board of the Pereire. An
altar is to be fitted up in the cabin set
apart for the use of the pilgrims.
Senator Bayard, of Delaware, yester-
day applied to the Surrogate Court in
Brooklyn for probate of the will of
his mother in.law, Catherine e. Carroll.
She left large amount of property.
A letter from Havana says the court
martial is doing its work by wholesale,
pronouncing penalty of death, chain
gang, perpetual imprisonment and con-
fiscation of property all over the island.
Nine persons tried for treason at
Wayori, one at Santiago De Cuba ard
five at Havana have been condemned to
suffer death. Four persons at Puerto
Principe, for the same crime, have been
condemned to work on trocha during
the continuance of the rebellion. Six
D ersons at Gauaimaro have been
sentenced to ten years on the chain
gang, and one from Trinidad has been
condemned to perpetual chains. The
American, Frederick Dockery was taken
from Nuevetss on the oath of April,
to prison in Puerto Principe for security
and safety, as the Cubans have been SO
near Nuevetas as to render the capture
of the place not improbable. The APP

General in regard to finance, appears to

they must be approved or he would
resign.

McMINSvLLE. Tenn, May 7, 1874.
To the Editor of the Ledger:
To a West Tennesseean, and L pre-
sumo to any Southerner, McMlnnvilie
cannot fail to present most charming
| picture, especially during the summer
months. Situated on one of the crystal
streams for which Middle and East Ten
nessee are noted, famed by mountain
breezes of the purest air that mortal
ever breathes, and Astounding in pure
ffeestone water, it becomes at once the
popular resort Of gay pleasure-seekers,
and the retreat of languishing invalids
from the noisy, dusty city. And Nc
Minnville needs no subtle hatterer to
pour this seducing music into her ears.
She knows her importance, and is act
ing accordingly.
The Warren House is open especially
for the guests who come crowding here
from Memphis and Nashville to spend
the summer. Last summer this hotel
was unable to accommodate all the APP
plicants, but is now re6tted and re-
paired on an elegant scale, and will do
an immense business the coming season.
1t is undoubtedly TIE finest hotel out
side of Memphis and Nashville, in the
State being thoroughly ventilated, with
elegant furniture, Brussels carpets, etc.
The New Era has the support of
| the people, and is consequently prosper
GUS, as it really deserves to be.
One of the finest female institutes in
the State is situated here under an able
and efficient faculty.
Oranges are organized all over the
country, but they have failed up to date
| to have any influence on the weather,
and farmers are very much behindhand.
The sentiment OF the people all over
Middle Tennessee is unanimous for
Chancellor A. S. Marks for Governor.
Being West Tennesseean, | naturally
argued with prominent citizen here,
| that we ought, as matter of right, to
have the privilege of naming the next
nominee for gubernatorial honors. be
answered with great force and reason
that we should all look to the man and
not to the section from which he is to
come, and held that Judge Marks, on
account of his peculiar adaptedness to
the present circumstances, was the best
man in the State to oppose johnson or
Maynard before the people. Certain 1t
is that Judge Marks is name and
praise in tie whole land" and that the
same people who placed him in his pres
ent dignifed position are deter
mined to promote him if it can
possibly be done with consistency.
After taking items over the greatest por-
ton Of ten or dozen counties in this
part OF the State, l sincerely believe
Marks the most popular man where he
is known that l have ever met with, and
if it should fall to his lot to be cur
standard.bearer, he is as sure of success
as he is of completing the canvass. In
fact, the people here are so certain he
will be the nominee that they are casting
about for man to fill the Chancellor
chair on his resigning. Major James 5.
Barton is favorably spoken of in this
connection, and is said to be every way
worthy of the trust. FRANKLIN.

place in Arkansas. Two hundred
Brooks men attacked boat containing
twenty Baxter men and some arms, on
the river twenty miles above Little Rock
Yesterday. They fred without warning,
and two noble young men were killed,
Frank Timms, who was the only sup
mort of a mother and sisters, and
Captain Sam Houston, most excel
lent citizen. The pilot of the boat,
John Meyers, was MORALLY wounded.
Others we're killed and wounded-alto-
gether six killed and six wounded. The
boat was disabled by the firing, and at
the instant Captain WEIGH, in command
of the Baxter squad, held up flag oil
truce. it was riddled with bullets
The usuages Of civilized warfare seem
to be utterly disregarded in this san
culinary warfare. 1t reminds us, IN q
small way, of the bloody scenes enacted
in Kansas, when Sharpe's rifles were the
hymn books put in the hands OF the
hired miscreants. The action of the
Supreme Court ia reversing their own
decision to suit the emergency OF reck'
less faction shows the corruption that
preyails. The Republicans at Washing
ton are astonished at the mendaclty OF
the court, and it is no wonder that the
President hesitates about what course to
pursue. 1t is case without precedent.
Next Tuesday the Legislature will con-
vene in Little Rock or vicinity If a
quorum can be had, which OF course'the
Brooksites will attempt to prevent. No
one can tell the result. 1t begins to
look as if the State is to be involved IN
bloody contests, and that neighbor Will
turn against neighbor, and old trends
become deadly foes, and all for whatY
To promote the selfish aims of a few
of the most reckless and unprincipled
uolitical adventures that ever disgraced
apv State. The business of Little Rock
is suspended; the merchants are doing
nothing, planters can get no supplies or
aid, negroes have quit their work and
rushed to railroad stations and landings
ON the river to discuss the war, and in
the hope of drawing rations. The State
is distracted from one end to the other
and every material interest Frustrated.
Anarchy reigns supreme. Martial law
is proclaimed in some counties and the
law of superior force is the only one
recognized or feared. Those who
should enforce and uphold civil law
have become its most fragrant violators.
The hopes ofpeace and prosperity which
dawned in the minds of the oppressed
people have been dashed out as rudely
as a rushlight. The constitution guaran-
tees in every State republican form Of
government but it cannot be claimed |
that Arkansas has the semblance ofone
now. The tread of armed men is heard |
in the State house, and the peaceful cit
izen is halted by sentries on the highway |
and required to show pass from some
military satrap or go to the guardhouse,
and brigadier generals are thicker than
fddlers are said to be over the other
side Of pRgatory.
