DEATH OF HON. W. P. GRACE

At the age of seventy-six years, Hon. William Porter Grace expir- ed suddenly in hi, law office at Pine Bluff about 6 80 0 clock Fri day afternoon. Col. Grace came to the State fifty years ago from Kentucky, of which common wealth he was native, and settled in Pine Bluff, where he commenced the practice of law. During the closing half of the present cen tury his name became familiar throughout the state both as d law yer and d politician.
 For fifty years he was success ful lawyer at the bar noted for its able barristers. As politician and public speaker he was able, adroit and forceful While he had forged to the front of the Pine Bluff bar during his ten years res idence there prior to I66o, his first notable entry into the domain of politics Was in IS6o-6I. when. in connection with Gen. James Yell, he was chosen d delegate to the constitutional convention which took Arkansas out of the Union and joined her fortunes with the Con- federate states. His fiery speeches in the convention and on the hust- ings did much to arouse the people and hurry forward the preparations for war.
 For years after the war, while not neglecting his law practice, Col. Grace became noted temperance advocate. In 1850 he was an un- successful candidate for the Demo cratic nomit ttion for governor. Two years ago he was chosen with out opposition, to the state senate and was one of the hold-ovcr mem- bers of that body.
 Col. Grace was able, genial, kind a charming conversationalist man of wide reading, profound lawyer, and foeman worthy of any man $ steel in any contest at the bar or before the people.-Ga- zette.

The Democrat had hoped to see I regiment of colofed troops or ganized in Arkansas. The ne groes of the state appear anxious to distinguish themselves as sol diers, and under the law giving the war department the right 10 enlist 1o,ooo immunes We had supposed the southern states would be called on to furnish eolored troops on a basis of colored population. In this supposition We appear to have been misled, for the latest informa- ton is that only one regiment of colored troops will be enlisted from three states-Alissouri, Tennessee and Arkansas. Missouri has been permitted to fill most of this regi- ment, notwithstanding 1t is north of the colored belt, and Arkansas is to be allowed only two compa- nies. The Democrat is reliably in- formed that nine or ten colorcd companies in different parts of the state have organized and are clam bring for places. It is claimed that q full regiment Is now wait ing. These eolored men ought to be given chance. The discip- line and general course of army life would do them good. It would give them higher appreci- ation of citizenship and afford them an opportunity to prove their fitness to fight under the American flag.
 The leading colored men of this city and other points in the State appear to be very much in earnest in their desire to organize colored companies, and they should be en- couraged. Helena, Pine Bluff and

THE STATE CONVENTION.

The Democratic party of Ark ansas held its convention at Lit tie Rock last week There was good turnout, and every coun- ty in the State was represented. By agreement of the various candida tes friends the organiza- ton was effected without tric- ton, by the selection of ex-Gov. I. P Clark as President and Mir. Hugh Corry. of Miller county, as Secretary The business of the convention was rapidly pushed through, and the nominations were made. the platform adopt ed and the convention adjourned all in one day.
 At the head of our columns will be found the State Ticket. While some of the men named were not our choice, nevertheless, they are all good men, and as the Democratic party stands for principles and not for individ- uals, We will all give the ticket a hearty support.
 The greatnorth-west, tis true, has monopolized more than it's just portion of the offices; but that was done from the simple fact that that section stands clos CT together than do those. .from the South and East and not that they have abler or better quail fed men.
 In the convention, Eastern Arkansas fought nobly for its candidate for Attorney General --IIon John T. Hicks, of White county, and Southern Arkansas was loyal, almost to a county for its candidate for Commiss toner of Mines, Manufactures and Agriculture-Hon N \ Wadsworth, of Drew but these two sections were divided, or i their instructions. between them. selves, and both helped the Northwest. The south in tho Attorney-General-ship and the east III the Commissioner-ship while the Northwest was prac. tically solid for it's men.
 While we do not, in the least blame the people of that portion of the state, for what they did, nevertheless, their action has given an excellent object lesson which might be of great benefit to Eastern and Southern Arkan- sas in future campaigns of our party.
 In concluding this article we desire to say that Eastern Ark ansas did better by us than we did bv 1t, and while we can only feel grateful now, we hope to be able to repay them, in a more substantial way two years hence
