During the past week considerable
talk has been stirred up over the re-
ported elimination of the body Of
Patrick Largy. The following in
regard to the case, which may prove
OF interest to our readers, we clip
from the Atlantic Daily Telegraph:
" p. II. Carey, a carpenter employed
in Atlantic called at the Telegraph
office Saturday to complain of an
item published under the head of the
Lorah news in last weeks papers in
which told of the contemplated ex-
huming of the body of Pat Larey,
whose death occurred some weeks ago
near Lorah. Mr.. Carey says that the
charge of foul play which it appears
has been made, is based upon the evil
but wholly unfounded presumption
that he was interested in Mr.. Lar
gey's taking off. He further asserts
that Mrs. Largey's father Mr.. Biddle,
ofDes Moines, is now at her home for
the purpose OF investigating the
stories and if it may be possible
to discover him, to punish the person
responsible for their circulation. The
whole affair is to be regarded as a
most unfortunate one. We trust the
matter will be disposed Of shortly"

RIVER NOTES.

The Arkansas river is falling a. Fort Smith and Dardanelle. It is on 6 stand at Little Rock.
 The steamer ]. N. Harbin arrived from Memphis this morning. She brought a large consignment of freight for Pine Bluff merchants.
 The steamer Dardanelle arrived from Little Rock this morning with a large cargo Of freight, principally cotton seed.
 We would have had a hearty laugh on Capt. Maynard if he would have visited Little Rock aud the sudden boom would have ceassd and the water fallen to such an ex- tent as to necessitate the Nashyille's remaining at the capital. It would have been quite joke on the Navy
 Among the passengers to this .city on the Harbin were Dr. C. C. Price and sister, Miss Lucy, of Douglass. They came up to attend the Elks' german, which takes place tonight.
 The sudden rise of the Arkansas river made the managers and own CTS of lowland plantations feei I'll ! IT. CT uneasy. But we are pleased 10 state the rise has reached it's highest stage.
 During the waters rage ih the Ar kansas, this proves quite oenehcl'i season for log-catchers.
