From the World of to-day.
GRANT AND ARkANSAS.

The only positively clear thing in the Arkan-
sas muddle ia that the State practically has no
Governor at the present moment. In the social
experience Of most men very pleasant COM
pany of two hcs often been transfer med into a
very stale, fiat, and improbable crowd Of three
by the accession of third person. And al
though in the political experience of many of
the reconstructed States at the South one Gov
ernor is very far from conferring prosperity and
good government, two actual or pretended Gov
ernors claiming the same Office in any State are
pretty sure TO confer upon the State nothing but
anarchy. Who is Governor Of Arkansa@ or who
ought to be Governor Of Arkansas is a question
which logical minds will shrink from dogma
tizing upon The Secretary Of the State for
Arkansas, TO whom the election returns were
sent 10 1872, declared that Baxter, the Grant
Republican candidate for the Governship, was
duly elected. Judge Whytock, of the state
Circuit Court, now declares that Brooks the
| Greeley Liberal Republican candidate for the
| same Office was duly elected.
One Of the most interesting featu in the
business, however, Is the position of Grant
| towards the rival Governors. In the Louisiana
| affair he acted on tho decision of Federal
court, and now adheres TO The result OF that
| action on the ground that Kellogg had heen
| declared the lawful Governor by the State
| couf q When the Supreme Court of Texas
| last fall declared the eiecton in which Day is
| was defeated to be uucons itutional and VOID,
Grant positively refused 10 sustain the decision
of The -ourt, and left the dispute 10 be settled
| forclbly or otherw ise by the people of Texas.
The question was settled sa, sfactoriy to the
people of Texas and of the whole country by
force, though the nse OF force resulted neither
| in bloodshsd or anarchy. IN the Arkansas af-
| fair Grant mai ntains an armed neutrality until
| a final decision shall be reached in the State
courts, declaring that he will be guided In deal
ing with Arkansas 10y the principles ON which
his Louisiana policy is indicated. The mention
| OF Louisiana in fbis connect on sounds rather
| om nous for Arkans? ), especially as Brooks is
| asserted to have offered himself as the ready
tool of Clay -on, and the armed neutrality W hich
Grant has set up III a Arkansas to"prevent blood
shed, whether intent niionally or not, is simply
the armed protection of Brooks in possession

How a Sickly Rat w hipped a Healthy
Young Alligator

From the NeJU Orleans Times I
A wholesale drug store on Magazine street
is the happy possessor of young and dome sti-
Gated alligator. This little crocodile has be-
come quite the pet and plaything of the estab-

OF music and dinner, and quite submissive

1t was resolved by the clerks of the establish
ment as the alligator had reached his third
birthday, and increased to three feet in length
to utilize him, to put him to some other EN- plOy-
ment than that of mere pet. At first it was
thought that he might be turned loose to reduce
the republican vote In this state, by picking up
stray picaninnies, for whom he is com monty sup
posedto have great love; but this was thought
therefore given up.
Itwas finally concluded to make use OF Crocky,
