ORDERS FROM THE WAR DEPARTMENT..
WASHINGTON, April 23.-The Sec

the c9mmandant at Little Rock that he
might retire to the arsenal with bis
command as socn as danger to life is
no longer threatened,' and leave the
question to be settled by the contest
ants in the courts:
LITTLE Rock, April 24.-Negotia,
tons have been going on to-day be
tween the two hostile parties to the
effect that both shall retire all their
forces except the body guard until a
competent tribunal settles the question
as to the Governorship. Brooks is to-
day engaged in erecting new barri-
cades and powerful magazine in the
rear of the State house. Some of his
troops have gone home. Baxter has
stopped sending his men home. Both
forces as to numbers are now nearly all
white ner, and Brooks mostly col
ored.
Baxter to-day sent the following tel
egram to President Grant:
"In accordance with my cores
pondence with you by telegraph, |
have convened the Legislature for the
18th of May have sent home part
of my forces, and would willingly send
the balance except small body guard,
but Brooks retains his whole force and
receives endorsements All the PEG
pie want is that peace be restored and
the Legislature protected in the per-
Torrance Of their legitimate business.
ELISHA BAXTER,
Governor of Arkansas.
Lieutenant Cushman denies that he
went to Memphis for the purpose of
telegraphing to the President on ae-
count Of the partisan feeling in thetel
egraph Office at Little Rock. Every>
thing is quiet here to night.
|. LITTLE Rock, Ark, April 23.-The
Secretary of State, Johnson;- whose
election has never been controverted,
called at the State House this morning
and ordered Brooks and his men out of
his office. They refused to go, and
Brooks said since johnson had signed
Bakers proclamation converting the
Legislature, and refused to recognize
him as Governor, he would refuse to
recognize Johnson as secretary Of State.
johnson thus left, and applied to Col
Rose for troops to assist him in taking
possession of his office. The result is
not yet known. All is quiet to-day.
No hostile demonstrations have been
made.

veto message Of the currency bill re
Gently passed by Congress. The qtes-
ton is one of considerable Importance,
and one upon which there is great
diversity of opinion even in the same
communities We are not prepared to
say whether the policy of the President
is one which Will insure prosperity to the
country OF not. The West was clam
orous for the passage Of the bill, while
the East opposed it. Upon the one
side it is claimed that there is not suf
ficient currency for the transaction of
business, while the other contends that
a scarcity Of currency is better than an
abundance of deprecated legal tenders.
We hone, however, that Congress may
be enabled to pass bill which will re
lieve the country of our financial diff
culties and at the same time hasten the
period when we can have currency of
uniform value.

last week, gave birth to her twenty

CAIRO, ILL, April 24.-The steamer
Minneola, which arrived here Yesterday
from Memphis, picked up seven famni
lies who had taken refuge on skifis,
RATS, and 'dugouts, in order TO escape
from their flooded homes. They re-
port their live stock as either drowned
or dying of starvation, and say that
many families resident too far from the
river channel to reach it will either
drown or be starved to death. The
overflow between here and Memphis is
chiefly on the western side of the river,
aud much restitution prevails among
the sufferers.
RAILROADS WASHED AWAY.
MEMPHIS, April PA portion of

General Walter p. Lane.

This gallant old hero is making
strong Roadway for the congressional
nomination, and if merit is taken into
consideration he will undoubtedly be
the next representative in congress for
this district. 1t would be superfluous
for us to say anything in his favor.
His history is a part of the history of
the Lone Star State. For her honor
he has peried his life and shed his
blood. On his body he bears honora-
bic wounds, received while battling In
her behalf. From San Jacinto to the
close of the late war, he has followed
the fortunes and battled for the honor
of Texas. Whenever she needed men
to do and dare for her, he has been
found in the front ranks of her defend
eors. II gallantry and heroism Is to be
rewarded, then he should receive the
nomination. While General Lane is
no orator, he is an experienced BUSH
ness mao, and would make most USE
full and able representative. lie is the
soul of honor, and no act of his would
ever tarnish the fair fame of our glorl-
Gus state. In his hands the interests
of the the district would be earnestly
attended to, and in his selection we
would secure an honest, faithful rep
resentative.-I Iron Age.

the Catholic church alone could sacred
songs be with propriety chanted, and
denounced the Stockton, Congress hall

for seaside concerts should be used, and
that Catholics were obliged to attend
