A Good Word for Governor Baxter

Capt H. P Barry, editor Of the Dar-
danelle Laborer, has kind word for
Gov Baxter. Capt Barry, like ourself,
was an earnest advocate of Mr.. Brooks
and the Reform Ticket, in the last cam
paign. This is what he says:
Although we have been utterly oppos-
ed to the foul means used to place Gov.
Baxter in the executive chair, and al
though In some sense we regard his oc
cupancy of that chair an outrageous usur
patton, yet we believe that to day he has
made the best Governor Arkansas has
eve been honored with. Thieves and
scoundrels placed Gov. Baxter over the
people Of Arkansas, but. thank God for
his love to our people, he has brought
great good out Of their evil God has
turned it all to blessing, and given to
| poor. down rrodden, tax ridden Arkan-
sas, a governor with heart and soul OF
christian. Gov. Baxter had lite
more to do with becoming governor
Arkansas than we who voted against him
so that it does not stgmatize his good
name to retain the power that scoundrels
gave him He is indeed our true Mo es,
because he was hidden in the tulrushes
upon the Nile of radicalism and the
Egyptian strumpsts found him, and by
Their republican appliances nursured
and brought him forward to lead theil
army; who, when placed in power, could
not turn traitor to his own people, but is
even now reaching out his strong arm
FOR their aeff,cranc. He slew Mcclure
the Egyptian who was striving against
his brethren. lie will lead us across the
Red Sea next November, and Pharaol
with all his chariots will be drowned II
their own iniamy.
u
Then will his own people give to hin
the honorable seat in her senate, believ
ing that the living waters will be smitter
from the rocks; the quails and the man
ma will light upon them and fall among
them as the gentle dew.

DIE D.

In the town of Bentonvil.e, on the 27th ult
after just weeks painful illness. Mrs SARAH
ARBELL lsAAM. wife of Charles T.. Isham, of
Benton,ile, aged is years.
Gus fair young friend, whose life went ont
in its morning. ere her snowy brow was fur
roWed by care. or the rosy flush of girlhood
bad faded from her cheek. has lett us a beau-
tiiul example of religious purity and christ
ian virtue. She recently became "A member
of the Catholic Church, lived firm believer
OF its doctrines. and died a true disciple of its
faith. In her heart she has done all that the
Commander of the faithful" required at her
hands:
But on VIC mis-: her miss hcr sadly,
From mornings dawn Tin ey' ming air,
Miss her light laugh ringing gladly,
Miss her presence everywhere.
Her innocent cOnlldiug nature. her gentle,
childish simplicity. won for her the love aud
admit alton of strangers. and melted the cold
reserve OF pride, and her death has left an
aching void in every heart. Only n few days
since she was one of our number; her voice
mingled with ours in conversation and song.
and her sunny smile enlvrned the weary mo-
notony of duty. All! little did we nrtnm
that In one short week that smile would van
ish from earth, and that voice be hushrd in
death No midnight phantom warned us how
soon the dea,lI-angel would remove her from
hence. No forcbohing thought told us that
the hands which clasped hers in play fnl mer-
riment would SO soon be called upon to pre-
pare her fragile form for the silent sleep Of
the grave. Sickness came upon her as comes
the flrtce tempest o'era summer sky. As the
lilly yields its dew germed nowrct seo the
mowers scythe. so she. in the morning Of her
day, snccumbed to the fearful destroyer. A
few days of tortured suspense. few nights
Of sorrowlul watching, Then. kneeling
around her with tear-dimmed eyes and am
gu>hed hearts, we watched her young life 20
out we saw her enter 1.-THE valley of slad-
ows,' like weary pilgrim, who seeks repose
IN some quiet retreat. We saw her meet the
surgeless wave without shudder Of fear and
her sweet words pray for me. all of YOU"
came 10 our benumbed senses In clear and
tranquil tones. unlike the faltering voice Of
hiin' who. stifllng his own emotion. knelt by
her DYING couch. and poured forth the agon-
ny OF his soul In supplication for the spirit
that was passing swiftly away. As if 10 an
swer TO that agonizing prayer. the distortions
OF pam relaxed; the soft lustre of peace stole
over each palld feature. and mortal was sew
ercd from immortal so calmly and quietly
that we knew not wnen she died. We could
not hear the noiseess dip of the oar. as the
pale, silent boatment approached. nor could
we see The scraph's wings that waited her
soul to the spirit-lnnd But we know that
she has crossed the chilly waters Of death. and
we feel that her pure, unsulicd spirit. with
the whIte-robed throng. Is singing anthems
of praise on the fadeless shores of eternity.

The Arkansas Official Troubles.

ent Of the st Louis republican of the

Judge Story and U. S. Marshal Sarbcr
In the House to day Gen. Batter made
a motion to reconsider the vote Of the
House yesterday giving authority to the
committee on expenditures Of the depart
ment Of justice to send for persons and
papers pending the investigation OF ar.
fairs in the Western judicial district of
Arkansas This means simply that the
bilious Benjamin favorS the cause of
Judge Story and Marshal Sarber in the
approaching impeachment of the former
and investigation OF the latter 1t is not
the desire Of The implicated parties to
give opportunity for Il full ventilation of
the charges from time to time printed in
your Washington dispatches, and they
believe that by confning the committee
within the bounds originally prescribed,
all testimony relative to the fraudulent
arrests, for alleged violations of the H.
quor laws and for alleged participation
in the Going Snake court house massa-
ere, together with other scandalous
abuses Of power in the Indian territory,
can be excluded. AS this forms the most
damaging part ofthe indictment, the par
ties believe that, if they escape it, the
vindicaton from the balance Of the
charges against them will be easy
