Things are bad enough in Arkan-
sas. The war is in progress, and
mems passions are being gradually
intensified, ai,d bitter and woful will
be the result. The position OF the
General Government is simply ridicu-
lous, beyond all expression. II claims
that its flag has not been dishonored,
and therefore it must not interfere.
The fag is dishonored whenever it
fails, BY its presence alone, to protect
the citizens in their rights, ard
women AID children from murder by
armed men--and that, too, in sight
OF body of its soldiers, who carry
! the ensign OF, the government.
This is what the Little Rock Ga
aette Of the 9th says. 1t is a strong
partizan of Baxter:
The events oi the past twenty-four
hours show 10 our people that to pres
vent n carnival of blood and terror,
an effectaal blow must be struck
against the misereants who are
banded together vt the state house.

shed and civil war, and forbearanos
on the part of the legitimate authori-
ties and The people is about
exhausted. Recruiting officers are
rapidly enrolling men, and
all good citizens shall be found where
honor and patriotism call them.
Nothing will satisfy the bad ambition
of Brooks, and Catterson, and Up
ham, but complete submission to
their insurrectionary proceedings
and their illegitimate rule. The peo,
pie are determined to make this stand
for the right. Let the plow and the
wagon stand in the field, and, as in
the good old days of the revolutionary
fathers, each and every man give a
few days to the maintenance of lib,
erty and the overthrow OF oppressor
The time has arrived when every
man without delay, should perform
this sacred duty Tor his country.

Arkansas Troubles.
PLAN OF AJUsTMENT, ETC.

WASHINGTON, May ll.-At a very
late hour, Saturday night. plan OF
adjustment for the serious troubles in
Arkansas was telegraphed from this

Both Governors are to disarm, with
the:exception Of a body guard, and
to abstain from all warlike move

each other or their adherents.
The Attorney General dispatched
to both parties the telegram of which
the above is tho substance, saying 1t
was submitted for the approval oi the
Contestants, and expressing hope
that it would settle the question at
issue. ~
