HELENA, ARK, October 5.-Qmt9 sn
excitement was created here this morning by
the announcement of difficulty between the
whites and negroes at Friars Point, Originat-
ing by the refusal Of Senator Alcorn TO a low
Lamar and Brown, sheriff of COahoma county,
10 speak yesterday, as they intended To de-
denounce him for exposing Browns defalca-
tion of four thousand seven hundred dollars.
Brown Immediately gathered four or five
hundred negroes, who marched on the town,
threatening 10 burn it. Two gentlemen ar
rived here this morning at two o'clock, asking
for arms and assistance. Several from here
proceeded to Friars Point, intending to
send for more, if necessary. AT five
o'clock the steamer Phil Allin came up,
with special messengers for more arms and
men, there being about five or eight hundred
negroes, well armed and only one hundred
and fifty whites, poorly armed. Generals
Chalmers and Alcorn are commanding the
whites NhC are in possession of the town.
The negroes advanced IN th2 town, and be-
fore firing, Chalmers gave them ten minutes
10 disperse, when they fell back one mile and
were receiving reinforcements hourly. All
me white men, regardless Of party, are
united, and expect al attack tonight.
Passengers on the Aliin reported the negroes
to be forming In line at three o'clock in the
evening, and night Was expected every min
ute then. All the women and children have
left the place, many fleeing TO this State. a
letter from Senator Alcorn, received here at
eight O'Clock tonight, begs for assistance, as
