The Little Koek (Ark.) correspondent of the St. Louts Democrat details the Iiebel Democra cy's outrasesin Arkan-as: "Week bcfoie last, Mr. Wheeler, State Senator from White county, left Kearcy m a buggy tir Weft Point, expecting there to meet a hack which would take him to a point on White river, seven ni'le-t bejoud where be was, to take a boat, beini ou h's way to this place, lie ar rived too late fur the back, and hired one Hicks to accomptnv him 10 the river in the bugtry. Three or Jour miles from West Point they came upon two men on horseback, with pistols cocked, in waiting li r tuem. Tuey were ordered out of tbe butrgy. Senator Wheeler was made to give up h s mony and two go'.d watches, an i tueu totakeotf his co-it and waistcoat, when both mm were ordered od m a direction indicated by trie asufcuins. Wheeler ran tor the wooJs, a hundred yards distant, llotu men started alter him, still mounted, and commenced tinug. His c at, hat, and valise were fmud, and rep irt was 6eut to this pl'ice the next day that he was killed. That evening a despatch was received here lom bim at Uuvall's Blutl', where he h id 1 tint anived. The men wbo attemp'.el to kill him weie both kuOAu to bim; one a resident o the county bv the name of Lewis, a brother-in-law of the Rebel General McCrav, the other a desperado Dy the name ot Hill, having lately come into the county from the Southern purt of the Sta'e, trom which place he had been comotlled to fleo for murder.

On the s-iroe day a decpiitch was received trom Memphis that Senator Barber ot Cntenden county, had been shot through a window with Duck-shot, three taking ell'pct in the head, and one in the arm. The simultaneous a'tempt to assassinate mem bers of the Lrgislature in parts ot tho State widely peparated, with the undeniable evidences of a general understanding among the assassins in Whi e county, coupled with the advice of the Gilzd e, and the threats of leading Rebels, alias Democrats, hi variom parts of the State, are suflici ut to convince the writer that assa-sin-tion is a part of the oronramiie for the fall cam paign, and hnt the leaders of the nomocracy in this ( ui t of the 8:ate are rep3nsi Jle lor it. DISASTER. The lull ol' n nemocrntlc llnuclie nt itelrwil. Tbe following is from the Detroit Tribune, of Tuesday lasd: Shortly after three o'clock yesterday after noon, an accident of a very serious nature ccturied at the Democratic r'anche, on Lamed stmt, which is beiug erected lor the purposes of Hat political ptrty. Without auy warning, the limbers supporting the central part of tho rof cave wav. precipitating that ponton of the ttructur to the ground beneath, a distance of lortj or hfty feet, and into the midot of htteeu or t wenty workmen and t-pecta'.on. The wort on the buildinchud iTOgic-sed far enoush to atmit ot the raihiiiff of a long hickory pole to be used as a flag stall, nod ibis was in partial prro es of being got into po.iiion when the accident occurred. The n ost popular idea appeared to be, that the Drli clpal cam-e ot the Ulster was occa- pmn'd bv raisiriC this nole. bit this, in our oninion. is a mistake. The switch" end of the po.e had been raised some twenty ieet, when the workmen discovered tbt they had ma le a mi take in erectii g tbe tacklp, one end of which was made fast to the ralt'e ocle of thn building. The fig po'e was, thereupon, permitted to rest on oraces erected lor the purpose until tue tackle could be chsnved. The cbauve was made, and jut as the rope was being hauled u i, hlu with only one-mau power, the roof guvp way. Tie roof flr t rommencel to bre tk awnv near thi louttx rly end oi the building, ant whea it Mice tot Biaitel it took evervtbirg down in its wav. Ti.e roof rested npon slender supports. and they ere spliced near the top. Tne lumber whs quite green, and consequently neavy, nd ih" iiiuffouate supports weie undoubtedly the cuse of the ditiuler. Hal the rool been braced up as It thould have been, no accident might have orturrrd. At the time of the occurrence there were three men on the roof, one ol whom David M'ck vim fatally injured, lie fell with the boards, scanning, planks, etc , and spems to have struck upon bis head upon some cross timbers below, lie as completely buried up with the debris, and sustained severe injuries entirely about the head. As soon as posMble he was taken trom tbe ruins ai d was removed to tbe hospital. The sticks of timber upou which he fell were much bespattered with blood, and the poor fellow continued to bleed ait the way to the hospital, where he died at hall-past 5 o'clock. Dennis Doyle and another man whose name we could not ascertain were al-o upon tbe roof at the front part of the build inir, engaged in changirg the tack.e for raising the pole. Doyle fell Bijout ten leet, striking upon some beam", and fortunately tound a lodgmeit there, lie was quite severely bruised about the chest and sides. His companion euaped to one of the side roots, more scared than hurt. Accident on tlie Shore, Llue nt Stony Ci eek. From the Korwlch (Conn.) Bulletin, August 23. The ffinu who placed the rails on the Shore Line Railroad on Saturday atternoon, the l' h Instant, wnich iesulied in throwing tae enuine oil the track at ibe Stony Creek bridge, h: 8 been caught. He turns out to be a wandering, shoeless vacrat t, who says be put tbe rails ou tbe track "for tun," and walled in the bushes near by to see tbeieBiilt. He was arrested in Haddam lor a trivial offense on Friday. Suerilf Rue bee notified President Scrantou that; he had the man, and be immediately sent the Sheriff of Madison alter him. On arriving at Haddam he found that Mr. Bugbee had left tbe prisoner with bis wife, and that during his absence he had stolen a watch and left. Tue next heird from tbe Madison Sheriff was fron Hart lord, from whence he telegraphed that h had rot Ins man. He broucht htm down to Stony Creek, and Mr. Scrantou went over the scene ot the bccident, and the man pointed out the place where be laid the rails. Tne prisoner's name is William Warner, and he belongs in Warwick, R. I. He has no tather nor mother, and the nearest relatives he has are cousins, wbo live in Rhode Island, lu bis conversation with tbe eueiueer he said he did not put tbe i ails on the truck to injure or kill any one, nor to rob, but did not tbinic the con-equences would prove as serious as they had. He appears to be foolish, but still answers questions very quick ly find without the least reluc ance. His statements as to tbe manner in which he laid the rails ou lhe track correspond with tae engineer's news in that respect. He hd walked all tbe way trom Albany on the railroa I traclc, and was going to Warwick. K. I. He was examined before a justice in Uran'oid Mon day, and wns sent to Jail to appear betore the Superior Court. D 0 UBLE MURDER. Two Men Shot Near II iff KnpUlH, Mich, From the Grand Rapid! Mich.) Eagle. Our readers will recollect the account pub lished, a tew days aeo, of the disappearance of two men named Augustine and Henry 13. Welch, in the vicinity of liiz Rapid?. Mecosta county. lhe brothers Welch came to B g Rapids abiut tbe 10th ot June, and engaged a young mm named William Burgesa to go with them into tbe north woods lor the purpose ot looktne at land. About a week later be returned witu thiir team, and reported that they had gone on loot t see f-cme Dartinulnr closoriDtion of land, itnd that he was to meet them at Big Prairie or some other point below, since which time neither he nor they nor the team bas been seeu. These licts were atnved at by the taro'ber of the missing men, Mr. George Welch, who had come on in search ol them. The Ionia baUinel gives some further partlca lari, which confirm the suspicion that the men had met with loul play in fact, that they were murdered. Itsavs: "We were informed that Gecge Welch, hav ing succeeded iu tracing his brothers to liig Rap'ds, there obtained the assistance of Fraik French, one lamiliar with tbe whole northern woods, in searching for the brothers. Proceed ing to the pomt at which Uurcess said he was to meet them, after a diligent search Frank discovered the graves where the Welch bro thers bad been buried by their murderer. The bodies were disinterred and identitied, the h mams showing that their dea'.hs resulted from being shot. Youug Burgess, who accom panied then1 iu looking for land, aud who is suspected ot comniittinir tbe murd'jr. has not only disappeared, but his lather has not been seeu since tne ending ot tne uouies. we trust no vicilance or eiloris will be tpared to track out and bring to summary punishment those guilty of so foul a murder." We are lurther luformed thtt a man now sup posed to be young Bireess, with a team corre sponding to the description given, pjtuoior one night in the vicinity of Greenville, Mont calm county, soon after bis disappearance from lip Kapuis. uur iniormnnt savs to u one ot tue bodies exhumed had the appearance of bing shot thiough the heart. It is also reported here that on the news ot their discovery being re ceived at Bie Ranids. the elder Buruess showed considerable perturbation and anxiously in quired of bystanders it they could suspect uis sou of being guilty of so black a deed . OUTRAGEOUS. An Atrocious Af tnck I pnn nit Old OlUccr nt J.onif is num. The New Vork 'lribune of this morning pub lishes the following: On Friday eveLiug last, a dastardly outrage was perpetrated upon Colonel Andrew Harrison, un iLotlensive and enfeebled old ex-officer ot the United Sta'.cs army, at bis residence in Green port, L. I. He was surprised by a party of five or six men, who were unknown to bim, and was taried aud feathered because be politically dif fered with his assailants. The place where the act was committed is about ninety-two miles irom this city. The provocation tor the attack was au addres wntcn uoionei rmrrison deli vered at Military HeadquarerB, Greenport, on the Saturday eveuimr previous to tbe assault, his subject being, "The Four War." In the course of bis remarks, he eloquently urged the claims of his old commander, General Grant, for the Fresi lency, and Ins appeal enraged his political opponents. His subject the Four Wars was suggc-ted by his extensive military experienres. A ceninuate, which was giyen him by Dr. A. A. Lavis, tbe Resident Piiyoujiau of the hotpitul, shews that be was an inmate ot that institution irom December 25, 18ti7, to March 31, 1808, and that when ho entered he was sutlering of nervous debility, takiug the form of paralysis agttans. caused, apparently, by wounds, diseases, and exposures iu his niauy campaigns in the United btates tervice during the last thirty years. Before ho bid entirely 1 (-covered from his last illness be was again prostrated, tins time by stealthy midnight assassins. Shortly after rmdnl&ht ou Friday eveniug he was awakened at the residence of a Mr. Buker, where he was boarding with his wile, and was told that a poor mau wau'. d hU help, and was waitiua for him a short distance away. De ng a generous man, tbis story brought Col. Harrison out of '.be house, lie went out un suspec lug, but he bad hardly followed his guide twenty yards Irom tbe house wheu he was sud denly surprised by tae atta?k ot several con cealed ruffians, who sprang on him from the roadside aud overpowered him betore be had an opportunity to prepare tor resist ance. He judged that six men were In the gang cena'nly lite. They wore hideous black masks which completely concealed their faces, and talked in leigned voices, as though aira'd of future recognition. A'ter handling Colonel Harrison very roughly, they blindfolded him and rode him on a rail several yards. Telliner h in that they were members of tbe Ku Klux Klan. they threatened greater punishment if he should ktill support General Grant tor Pre sident. Finally, they took him off thtj rail, and after stripping him of his clothes, inhumanly lubif clcd him to a covering of tar and feathers, despite his urgent demands to be spared on account of his ill health. 8ubsqucutlT they rode him on tbe rail back to his house, and then let him go. Tbe next morninu strenuous en deavors were made to discover the perpetrators cf tho shameful outrage, but owing to the political complexion of the town very little encouragement was given the men who sought information. The only trace of the party was a cloth matk which was picked up ou the road. Colonel Harrison and bis irlends have offered a reward ot $SflO for information which shall lead to the discovrry of anyone of these Long Island members of the Ku-Kiux-Klao. HE A VY ROBBER Y. A Slcrclinnt Iln 1I rocket Ticked of 13,0000. The New Yoik Herald of this morning relates tbe tollowiiig! Quito an excitement was created in the Tombs Police Court j esterday aiternoon by the unex p.cted advent of the notorious desperado end bunk tbiet known to all well-informed police men as Dutch Heinrich'," thoueh he nw ai n any aliases as be has ringers and toes. Tbe cause of his arrest yesterday ere v out of the following circumstances : About 1 o'clock P. M., as Mr. Patrick Dickey, the well known glnss dealer and manulactun r, sgrd ttventy-tJve, and residine at N. 1 W. Tbirty-riehth street, stepoed fro n a Seventh avenue car at corrcr of Barclay an I Broad way, he suddeuly became cousdous that, bis pocket-book, containing $15,000 In United Stales Government Five-twenty bonds, had been ab s'ractcd Irom his pocket, aud ho at the sanio time remembered certa n subpicious actions of a man who turned out to be tbe prisoner already alluded to. As he bel eved lb mau to have stolen bis wallet, Mr. Oickey at once gate cbi-e. aLd cauuht sight ot the fellow as be emcrsred from Rusbton's drug store, and gave the alarm by shouting "Thai's the thiei; stop him 1" As the t ry was uttered by tha despoiled mer chant tbe fugitive met a young man named Joseph Ortenbeicucr, of No. 62 West Nineteenth stnet, who attempted to stop tue leilov and received a bio from the shoulder light iu the moutb, thereby being knocked don and havlutr two of his tteth knocked out. Ton suddeo assail 't was witnessed by Mr. Henry Umneil, of Ho. 110 High street, uro iKiyn. who. neanng the cry ot 'VtoD thief," made a clutch an the a-iail-nut, and the pair tLen engaged iu a lively set of fisticuff. This last struggle was iu full and active pro?res when it attracted the atten'iou ot Officer Follis, of the Brjad wty squad, whfi ran cowu to stop the fight, as he upoosed it to be, wh'Mi he ascertained tha. Ileinnch, who gave the name ot Bdvaid Marks, bad been accused of picking Mr. Dickey's pocet, and took the fellow in cus'ody and marched hiai off to tbe Tmbs, where he was arraigned bsfore Alderman Couian, acting magistrate. RUSSIA. Itcliiiioiis IJberly A Curious Contro versy at Moscow. A curious controversy has sprunar up at Mos cow. M. AkBakoff, iu the paper called tbe Moscow, bas been advocating leligious lioerty in Ru.-sia. He complains that tne religiojs superintendence of tbe Goverrment over a Rut-sian beams with his b rtb, never leaves him one moment duiing his life, and acompanies him to tbe rave. Tbe police regulations a bo it nis baptism extend to tne most miuute deiails. Kiill more particular are ihi-y ubout his cate chtziug. He is required to be diligent iu nis attendance at church, e-peoiaily on Sundays and civil festivals. Parents are oound. under severe penalties, to see th'it all their children over seven years go to con'csslon at least once a year, and the civil aud mililury authorities ure to see that no parents tail in this. All adults aie under tbe Bume rule, which in their case is to be enforced by tbe "civil aud military author ities." "In the most private details of religioas life the policeman s auds sentinel over every Russian. " Police regulitions require h'ra to attend church "with pieiy" aud "without hurry" (art. 3), not to talk there, to treat the sacred pictures with due reverence (art. C), not to move from one pari to auo.hur, toshov "awe, silence, recollec.ion, and revereuoe" (art. 7). not to kiss tbe pictures except betore or altr-r tbe service (art. 8). All particulars of the church decoratious are carefully prescribed, aud melets ornaments out of keepmu with the sacreduess of the place and carved Images are smelly forbidden. Then as to religious liberty, any member ot the Russian Chur.-.h is sublect to the lorleiture ot all civil rightB aud ex le to Siberia, or two years' service lu a penal corps, it he joins any other communion (arts. 17-1'J and 32). M. Aksakoffhas been pressing far the repeal of these laws, and has been answered iu the paper called the Kussia, by M. 1'ogodlue, who sujs: "What in the world wo dd ou have with your 'liberty of Conscience?' If the Government were to listen to you we should soon hive the fopuaiion in ditlerent sects, and half the ereat noies throwing themselves into the arms ot charming abbc."fM. AKSHkoff's arguments may be guessed. But a Paris correspondent, from whom we take these particulars, says thit the fact of their being treely discussed iu news papers at Moscow shows that the press in Itu-sta enjoys a degree of toleration, if not ot liberty, which loc'.iues uur 10 uupts luai fucu raws is inese, wbeu once freely discussed, aro not likely to be long unrepealed. He adds that tbe cimpalga ou Which M. Aksakoffhas entered is even more important than that which Mr. Gladstone Is now winning in the Engtibh Parhaiieur. JAPAN' Hie Custom of lturulng the Dead. A letter from Japan sa3s: The burring of the deal is largely practiced among tbe Japanese, and of tbe tnirtv-ive ditlerent loima of worship practiced here all tauallv lal-e but two demand burial in orefer- ence to incremation. My acquaintance with i 1 1- i I' i. . . 1 l : ;. j ... luuu wuui- ui uurj uk iuc umu in iiwiieu iu two funerals, which casually came before my notice. On one occasion I was returning irom a walk, and my pa'h led beside one of the little cemete lies near Kob in which a small party was gathered. It was the hour of suuset, a titling time lor an event of tender sorrow. The mourn ers weie dressed entirely iu white, which con trasted with the gaudy robes of a small roupof priests. The corpse, in its incisure, lay upon a bier, and au off-rms o green rice aud of flowers was made as though to the manes ot the dead. Then came the beating ot bells and the clung of ombals. The receptacle w'lloh contained tie cbi pse was shaped like a naif barrel, and in this the dead was placed in a sntina pjsture, and all vacant places were filled with combustioles. The friends now ail ga'bered round it and conimeuced a low, plaintive chant, bo monoto nous that it seemed merely the repetition of a name, which 1 suppose to have been that of one ol their deities. They tt en separated, and only a few remslued to a tend to the tiivil service. The receptacle or cotiin was placed over a s'.oue troueb and covered with a heap of fuel. All gathered iu a close circle, aud the tearest of kin (iu this instance a wile) applied the torch, and a tbe flames ac nded the monotonous cbautfind tbe sound of cymbals were renewed iu motinful concert. KxceiBive. grief was de cently restrained, except iu li e case of a little boy about ten eirs, who wept piteously, aud was taken aside to be cornier ed. The btoud broke, and one a ter the other departed, leaving the wile above referred to alone, the image ot sorrow, and aoparen ly ucaole to tear herself iroiu the ashes ot her husband. General Sol.

Marvellous Itise In the Vulue of Ileal Estate. The Chieacro Republican has an lutere3ting article on tbe rise in value ot real estate iu that city, from which we take tbe following: 'The great appreciatiou in the value of real cs'ate in this city within the past two years, the certainty that this is to be a great metropolis, the middle city par excellence of the Uuited States, has made many wealthy. Tae ninrgla that yet remains between existing prices ani those certain to be established tar in advance of the same, by realization of those promises of growtb, derived from tbe analogies ot other rider cities, is making many speculative. Whether to be speculative will be in these Instances to become rich, is something left to the control of circumstances varying with every case. In a scheme with so many rich prizes there will be many blanks. Comparing prices of our real estate to day with as nearly as possible corresponding locations in New York, Philadelphia, and Boston, there are certainly laiee margins between $J000 per front foot for one hundred feet in depth, the lareest figure ever realized in Chicaeo, and $5000. $7000, $U0OO and even $12,000. That is to say, the best pro perty in Chicago to-day is from $2500 to $3000 per loot. The Dest in other and ohter cities will exceed the rJpures given above. That paid for the Park Bank lot in Broadway, was higher by a thousand or two than tbe largest of these figures. The inference is clear. It only re mains for the operator to study the chauces of his being the best property in that gilt edged day of increase, nnd tbe chances of that Irresis tible and capricious drift, now here, now there, of the 'best' quarters, until the ereat permauent landmarks are made for all time in our ousiness centre." The Cholera of 1HCG In Euglaml. From the Pull Mall Gazette. "Dr. Farr's report on tbe cholera epidemic of I860 supplies the authoritative sta i-ttcs of that severe visitation. Tho to'al loss of life occa sioned by cholera iu 18ii6 amounted to 11,378 deaths, iu comparison with 20,097 in 1854, and 63,293 in tbe memorable epidemic of 1849. The extent to which tbe last visitation was les de structive than cither of the two former years is best shown by tbe statement that ot ten thou Fand persons llv ng In cash of the three period-i thirty died of cholera in 1849, eleven la 1854, and seven in 1866. This reduction ot mortality Is due, acroidmg to Dr. Farr, not to any dimi nution iu tbe force of the cholera virus it-elf, but rather to iucreased visilaice In regard to preventive and sanitary measures. The satis factory inference follows that the disease may be mitigated, it not averted, by means within eysy reach of the community. The report also bears out Dr. Farr's former ciuclucions. now generally accep'ed, as to the close connection between tbe epidemic and the quality of the water supply in infected districts."
