One year ago the outstanding fractional currency was ‘only $33,000,000, while to-day ft Is over $41,000,000, The contraction, then, was the result of the panto in the tail of 1873, since when there has been a gradual increase of the amount, and there is no intention on the part of the Treasury Department to reduce the volume below $40,000,000, wile all demands, even up to the limit of the law, $50,000,000, will be promptly honored. HOW TU INDIGENT NON-RESIDENTS OF THE DISTRICT ARE DISPOSED OF. It has transpired that in addition to the poor Insane patients, so heartlessly abandoned at mid- night by the authorities of the District of Colum- bia in Prince George county. Maryland, that thero has been for several weeks a systematic distribu- tion of indigent non-resident patients to diferent States, transportation being furnished at the ex- pense of the District, and the patients, who were accompanied into the States, were left on the cars to take care of themselves.

ARKANSAS, PROSPERITY OF THE STATE SINCE THE OVER- THROW OF CARPET-BAG RULE—CONDITION OF THE CROPS—IMPROVEMENT IN THE FINANCES AND A RESTORATION OF GOOD FEELING. WASHINGTON, August 1, 1875, W. W. Wiishire, Congressman elect from the Little Rock disirict, has arrived direct irom Ar. Kansas, He says the cotton crop, just ripening, is the largest, by ‘ar, ever before produced in ar- kansas, while the wheat and corn crops promise abundant yield; and, for the first time in the nis- tory of the State, there will be a large surplus for sale. Emigration to tne State this year will reach, he thinks, from 100,000 to 150,000, and wild lands, which one year ago could not have been sold for $1 per acre, now bring $5 peracre, Financtalty the State was almost bankrupt when the Garland government assumed control of affairs, and now THE DEBT OF THE STATE is being provided for toa degree far beyond the expectations of the most sanguine. Politicaily a new era has dawned; whites and blacks, ex-Con- federates and Union men have forever buried the hatchet, and poiitics are scarcely heard of The people have taken new heart, are industrious, ihriving and happy. This state of affairs in Ar- kansas fully proves that the Southern question would long ago have adjusted itself if THE CARPET-BAG ELEMENT in politics had been crushed out and the conserva- tve people of that section left tree to conauct their own affuirs, The people of Arkansas, Mr. Wilshire further says, are extremely grateful to the Heap for tbe interest shown in exposing the fraudulent claims of those who invoked Con- gressional aid, and juily sustains the prediction of Judge Saylor, who, as a member of the Com. mittee of Five, said oi Arkansas:— “Under this constitution and the officers chosen by the people in accordance therewith the bless. Jags of peace and goed government have been re- stored to Arkansas, and anarchy, lawlessness and bloodshed have become things of the past,’? ‘FATAL STABBING AFFRAY, LE SEQUEL TO A DISPUTE—A SMALL POLICE FORCE AND THE NATURAL RESULT.

It cons.sted of pr. visions, clothing. pedding, six guns and 1.900 rounds of ammunition, Of the three boatioads with which he started only one remained.

Captain Benham, in a letter enclosing the report of Captain Tyler, says he ts of opinion that the re- ported number of Sioux warriors Who engaged the Crows Is eXaggerated; but, making due allow- ance for exaggeration, there must have been a considerable iorce there to have driven the Crows, Gros Ventres and Nez Perces back Irom the river and away from Major Pease, in whom they had greet coniidence.
