ASSASSINS OF ARKANSAS.
mi 9&VB AND XtJTIIKNTIC HABBATIVG
Of the Celebrated Fayetterville War.
: Fayettervillo;' in Washington County,
-Arkansas, is beautifully situated on an im
mense platoau of the Ozark mountain^.—
With its purling streams, delicious climate,
pure nir, and brilliant sky, one would sup
pose it a village fitted to inspire feelings of
devotion, visions of poetry, and dreams of
innocence and Eden. Alas! that the hor.
jrible facts of its past history should prove
Ihe pleasing inference from its topography
an utter and glaring non sequilur; for
there is not a street, or corner, or dark al
ley within its limits, which hus not been
the theatre of murder. There is scarcely
of old gray limestone in its public
square, that has not been more than once
reddened with human blood.
Let me daguerreotype the clique of le
galized banditti I Let me paint them tq the
life, not in rest, but in action, as I saw them
on that dreadful sabbath in July, 1839
a day that will long be remembered by the
people of Arknnsas, under the awful name
of the “Sabbath of Murders.”

Mftch,
It is eleven o’clock; the sky is cloudless; I
the sunlight looks divine ; and a gentle
breeze from the northern pruiries fans the
bosomofthc ntmosphere, bringing balm on
its wings, and delicious coolness. Almost
the whole population of the country seems
to hove 'urned out to-day ; for yonder vast
court-house; in the centre of the public
square, Is crowded from floor to gallery.—
Hurk ! hear you not the ringingchorus of
hulf n thousand voice's sending up on high
the solemn chaunted hymn—n tribute to
the Universal Father! Hence you may'
know it is the Christian’s Subbnth ; and
they uso the forum ns a church to-day.—
But they are not all at church. See the
door of the greut log grocery to the west,
and only fifty yards (roin the place of
er and praise, stands wide open, ns it in
defiance of the luw and scorn of God. Go
enter, and tuke notes of the sceno within.
That portly massif flesh tjnd bones—
he of the smullgrny eyes, lit with u cunning
twinkle, like two coals of fire the oily
ground of his fat fuce—is William McK.
Bull, cashier of the Fayettcrville Bunk. In
a shurp, sinister voice, he is directing the
others how to do Kl th“ work well and quick
ly.” Ho carries no weapons himsell ; for
although a man. of amazing strength, he
never fights, being a deacon of the Cum
berland Church. And yet he is the soul
ofthe Fayetterville clique ; he does ulltheir
thinking. As a politician, his influence is
unbounded ; and hence the current prov
erb in Arknnsas —
“As goes Bull, so goes Washington co.;
as goes Washington county, so goes the
State!”
His name was ufiixed as a signer ofthe
Constitution, and prefixed us compiler to
the first code of laws, for digesting which
he received five thousand dollars. He has
grown rich within three years ; and his
farm add slaves, lies a mile west of the vil-
logo.
Behold that tall, slender man, dressed in
the extreme foppishness of the fashion.-
You seo the hill of his bowie knifu
gleaming through the snowy ruffles ol his
shirt bosom; he is busily engaged ram
ming home ti double charge into the bar
rel ofn superb Deringer pistol ; hisfingors,
glittering with gold rings, tremble nervous
ly— it may bo with fear, or, perhaps, it is
from pain—for, as you observe, his face
is considerably lacerated. Big Tom Wag
noncowhided him yesterday for insulting
a female, and his companions or the clique
will avenge the affront to-day. He is Mat
thew Leeper—receiver of public moneys
in the land office, a colonel of militrn, a
lawyer, and a duelist. He, too, has acqui
red a large farm and many slaves—some
of whom, it is whispered, ure his near re
lations. . ,
That handsome gentleman, leaning
against the counter, with such a sleepv
look, is the District Judge, the Hon. Joseph
Hoge. He remarks lazily, in a thick, hall
drunken voice— .
“Bovs, l don’t think it will do for me to
be seen among you. You know 11l have
to preside on your trial.’, , ~
••Very true,” said Ball. "You had bet
ter go into the back room, and take a com
fortable nap. The sound of pistols will
woke you in time for dinner.
You notice the small, hook-nosed youth
in the corner, with that hang-dog counte
nance. He is fixing fresh caps on 'ho tubes
of his revolver. That is Mr P>e nsants -~
a mere boy in years, but a,hous “ ndy , h
old in perjury and murder Hark. he
speaks in tones of piping treble
P “Gentlemen, as l am a sworn of
ficer I’ll hang back at the outset, but help
you if you get in a hard pinch.
“That is right,” said Ball.
Behold another of these twelve apostles
and missionaries of murder, a perfect
mountain of horse-like muscles, his brow
stamped with the impress of drun^ enne e , B
and desperation, as with a d ' e \ He , r ° e ‘
and swaggers across the floor with a bra -
dy bottle in one hand and a double barre
ed shot gun in theother, swearing through
a storm of hiccups his favorite oath.

But who is that tall, hungry looking]
personification of fumine, with the corpse
like face, nnd.all his nerves quaking with
the imagination of the peril about to be in
curred. That is the Clerk of the District
court, B. H. Smithson, an arrant coward,
but a very supple tool, notwithstanding-
uaturn next to the three brothers—-
the Shelleys, Bill, Alf, and Ripley. These
are ownors of the grocery, and the most
famous fighters of the clique. Bill, the el
dest has alreudy slain his three victims ;
Alf, the second brother, has killed two ;
and. Ripley, the youngest,, though scarcely
eighteen, has earthed one. They are all
choice specimens of mere physical ergam
zatioti, and one may, read, the word • horn-
ENGLISII HUMANtTY. ...
The Chinca Islands, it is well known,
contain large doposits of Guano. British
vessels,chartered by English subjocts, Have
for months past been engugod in transport
ing, by the cargo, the Chinese Coolies to
these islands, and assigning them over to\
the Peruvian government, as bonded slaves/
for tho period of five years, during which
time they nro amployed in getting out Gu
ano for the foreign market. Tho.iaboli
tionists of our country, and those who dro
banded with English prejudices against the
institution of slavery in tho Sduth, may
find in tho succeeding account something
to cool the fervor of their laudations, of
English humanity. A letter writer from
these Islands says : ___ ;
