East winthrop Locals.

To stranger passing through this charming
neighborhood on Thursday last, the Parsonage
must have appeared in state of sege-with how
ever this remarkable difference, that the invaders
seemed to be stocking and not sacking the scene
of operations A resident however on being ques-
toned would soon have explained matters by
stating that donation party was being given to
the pastor, the Rev. w. T. Whtmarsh. The DEM
onstration of respect and affection was in every
sense complete, and Mr. Whitmarsh may well be
congratulated on having in so short time torhe
has been in the States only six months) won so
high position in the hearts of his people. The
house was densely thronged, over hundred
guests being counted. The gifts were very va
ried and of about the value of one hundred dol
lars besides roll of greenbacks between fifty and
sixty dollars in amount. Mr.. Kilbreth was the
mouth-piece of the assembled friends and very APP
propriate were the remarks in which he expressed
the sentiments of love and regard which the peo-
pie of East Winthrop entertain towards Mr.
Whitmarsh. In a note to us Mr. Whitmarsh de-
sires through our columns to make due acknowl-
edgement of the kindness and lberality OF his
friends.

The Decision of the Executive.
ASSURANCE FROM GOVERNOR
GARLAND.


| Washington, November II. The Cabinet
was in session two and half hours to day,
during which the Arkansas troubles were dis
cussed at length, and j: ms finally decided
that there is not before the government the
| necessary information to enable it to take any
action in reference in reference to the contro-
| versy in that State. Hence no notice will be
taken of the proclamation recently from
Smith who claims to be the Governor of that
State.
Governor Garland sent tho following tele-
gram to his counsel in Washington, dated
yesterday:
Little Rock. All is peace and quiet here
perfectly so. l will have no collision unless
it be forced upon ME by resisting the process
OF law or attacking me. ALI classes of peo-
pie and all parties are supporting me, and
cannot find Smith and his party to arrest them
with warrants, and no one knows where they
are.
Another telegram from Garland, to-day,
says
"Only one arrest has been made price,
and on examination he was discharged. The
guilty ones, Smith and Wheeler, are fugitives
and cannot be found.
All is quiet and the government is moving
on we'll and admirably"
The following, from the Editor of the Re.
publican paper at Little Rock, was received
tonight, by Senator Dorsey of Arkansas:
Little Rock, November II. The republi-
cans are waiting patiently for some definite
action by the federal authorities at Washing
ton. They can protect themselves if forced
to do SO. They have always been loyal and
obedient to the. mandates of higher authority.
The federal government sustained Baxter 10
his conflict with Brooks, and by that means
alone Garland and his mob of White Leaguers
obtained possession of the State Courts, and
they at once commenced a regular syste m of
murders, intimidations and other fearful
crimes which is resulting in all the horrors of
civil war.
Business throughout the State is almost en-
tirely suspended, and the White Leaguers'
militia roam at large. IT we are to fight we
wish to know it. The earlier the matter is
settled the better it will be for all.
Other despatche say the Governor is au-
thorized and will offer reward of 5 900 for
the apprehension of parties charged with con-
spirsey, &c.

Concerning the new reform party, which a

shape is in the withdrawal of one or both old
parties from this life. Democracy can hardly
be expected to be so obig;ng while the stimu-
lus of the last election holds on, and the re-
publican party, there is no reason why they
should give up the ghost in Mass. So far as
the State administration is concerned it has a
record to swear by, and barring its want of
policy on the liquor question, it is as well
equipped for future usefulness as it has been
at any time in the last seventeen years"
