LITTLE Rock, ARK, June 21.--
Particulars reached here to-day from
Eldorado, Union county, this State,
of some vigilant work by band Of
colored men in that community on
Wednesday night last. A negro
named Willis Ferdinand, man of
education and recognized leader
among his people, candidate for
the Legislature with certainty OF
election, became too familiar with
the wife OF one Isham Jones, who
went to Ferdinand and warned him
to desist in the attentions to his
wife.
Ferdinand failed to heed the warn
ing, and Isham collected some half
dozen Of his neighbors together on
the night above named and took
Ferdinand to the woods, stripped
him to the skin, and were beating
him to death when the sufferers
cries brought assistance to his re-
lief, who promptly interfered and saw
ed his life. Jones says he first went
and begged Ferdinand not to visit
his house, and on his refusal to COM
ply, he thought the cheapest way to
get rid Of the nuisance was to whip
him to death, and that he intended
to do. Ferdinand WAS taken home,
where he now lies in a critical con-
dition, his back being covered with
welts Of the size of a mans finger.

Our Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON. D. c.. June %

There was full attendance of
members when the House of Repre-
sentatives convened on Thursday,
and the galleries were crowded in an
ticipation of stirring events in con-
nection with the motion to take up
the great tariff bill. There was but
one opinion, and that was-the meas
ure would be irretrievably lost. Mr..
Morrison was far from sanguine, and
an uneasy, troubled look overspread
his features. The vote was lao to
157, which fully indicated the I'M
mense opposition the bill will meet
with, if taken up this session. 1t is
scarcely probable that Mr.. Morrison
will ask for another vote. as the de-
feat was considered decisive. He
said that the Democratic majority in
the House would violate the pledges
of the party platform, if they did not
attempt to reform the tariff This
was an allusion to the thirty. five
Democrats who voted with the Re
publicans.
One of Mr.. Morrison's friends sta
ted that the question of tariff discus
sion now rested in the hands Of the
President, and that Mr.. Morrison had
informed Mr.. Cleveland that the sal
walton Of the Democratic party de-
pended on the action of the House in
relation to the tariff question at this
session. The President seemed dis
inclined to act and told Mr.. Morrison
that he would prefer to see whether
it could not be taken up without his
intervention.
Senator Colquitt, Of Georgia, who
is an infallible oracle, upon all mat
ters concerning the Senate, remarked
some days ago that an adjournment
could not possibly be effected before
August. Divers bills of great impor
lance have yet to be considered and
these will require several weeks.
At the Cabinet meeting this week,
considerable time was consumed in
discussing the Canadian fishing trou-
bles. The Secretary of State report
ed that he had received advices from
Minister Phelp, at London, tending
to show that the English government
did not approve of the action of the
Dominion authorities in the seizure
of American sailing vessels, and that
there is every prospect of satisfacto
ry settlement of existing compiled
tions arising therefrom. 1t is per
haps the right, and in fact the only
ground England can take in the mat
ter. Political ruptures, Irish discon
tent and Colonial troubles have con
vinced Great Britain that defensive
is infinitely preferable to an offensive
policy.
In the general elections in Nova
Scotia on Tuesday, large majority
voted for Secession from the Canadi-
an Confederation-and in favor OF
reciprocity with the United States.
This is of course recognized as dis
astrous defeat of the Dominion gov
eminent. ALIc.

The recent rains were a great help
to farmers in facilitating blowing. as
the soil has been extremely arid dur
ing the entire season; but they were too
late, however. for most of the more i'm.
portant cereals that suffered from the
long drought.
-Threshing has almost been finished
during the last three or four weeks, but

Wheat averages from twenty to
twenty-five bushels per acre in most

Corn turns out alarger yield and OF
better quality, by far. than was antici-

was retarded considerably during the
dry days of summer, -premature frosts
have not nipped it yet nor impeded its
maturity.
