talc Murders in Arkansas.
The Memphis Eagle has the following state-
ment, copied from the Arkansas banner, i he
.Little Kock Democrat says that bov. Koane
had ordered out the miltia for the purpose of
arresting the murderers. The attempt to arrest
them has doubtless led to the state of civil war
existing at the last accounts :
Marion County. September. 4. 1849.
I will now give vou an account of one of the
most hellish outrages ever perpetrated in that
unfarlunate county. Marion. On Friday last
U m t
three of the Kings were murdered in cold bluod.
You recollect hearing of a battle that was fought
at Yellville some time since between the Kings
and Everett8. Some days since Moony (the
sheriff of Marion county) and some of the I
Evereiia followed ono of the Kines, who bad
moved from Marion to Conway county and
O
setiled. When Moony and company arrived
at King's they found him in the act of moving
back to Marion county. They took him pris-
oner. King told them 'hey might tie him, or
do as they chose, as he would go wiih them
peaceably, but that he did not think their in-
tention was to take him to Yellville, but he be-
lieved they intended to murder him on the way.
Moonv and Everett told him all thev wanted
was to take him back to Yellville and give him
. J .
a Iral by the laws 01 Arkansas.
They started with him. His father broth-
ers. and I think two cousins said they would zo

bered about twenty They were armed each
wiih a rifle gun, pair of pistols, and a bowie-
knife. King's family moved on, either ahead
or behind the company. On the way two of
the King's little children were taken very sick.
The night before the hellish deed was perpe
trated, King learned that one of his children
was dying ; he plead for God's sake to let him
go and stay with his poor little dying child that
night, and told them to chain him or tie him
any way and go with him. But all his prayers
were in vain. King told his grey-headed fath
er, a pious, good old man, that he, his brothers
and cousins, had belter get away and take care
of themselves, as be was conscious that their
fate was sealed. The old roan and boys told
him that they would stay with him and all die
togother, if the company intended to murder
them. At length the assassins commenced
dropping off, one at a time, until all but ten or
twelve had left. Tney then wanted the Kings
to get down off their horses and rest, but they
refused. Some one of the patty gave a sign
for all hands to re-prime their rifles and shoot,
which was obeyed in quick time. Two of the
Kings (the cousins) made their escape. They
ran down their horses and hid themselves un
til dark, and then went to tho settlement and
raised a company lo bring in the bodies of the
three that were murdered. Kings child died.
The Outrages of Arkansas.
The Little Rock Democrat makes the follow
ing statement concerning the outrages in Mari
on countv : "A feud has for some time since
Marion
existed between several families in
county which resulted, a few davs since, in the
murder, by an armed party, of an old man named
King and his two sons. A warrant was issued
for the arrest of the murderers, but their friends
mustered in such force that the whole posse of
the county was not sufficiently strong to take
them. Information of these facts was commu
nicated to Gov. Roane, who has authorized
Gen. A. M. Woods, of Marion county, to call
out the militia, if the arrest of these murderers
cannot be effected by the civil authorities."
Singular but true Statement.

years of age, who has had twenty-one children, the next. When he hsd got to his seventh egg,

eight years, who had twenty-fie children.

lost Bov Found.
On Sundav morning a aflnilemnn frnm A I.
bany, by the name of James Burt, arrived here
m pursuit of a boy, who will be eight years old
in December next, that left home on the 8ih of
October, 1846. Mr. Burl's attention was called
to the subject, by reading an article in the
Journal, of a boy that was found in a dry goods
oox, asleep under the ibertv do e near ihe S.
' na-sireet bridge, by Justice House, soon after
the Fair. He was taken to the Ornhan Asv
lum, where the father found him on Sunday
morning, and selected him out of more than 80
children. The story which the boy told, and
which is undoubtedly true, is, that he has been
living with a Mr. Golden at Oswego, who has
had no children, for two or more years past,
That some two weeks previous to the Fair, be

mastoid he might come to the Fair, which he
did alone, but could not find his way back. He
wa l wihout money ; drove or watched
sheep on the Fair ground, for some one, who
gave nira 80ne pennies, with which he pur-
chased some cakes and peaches. In this way,

don in the dry goods box, under the liberty
pole, and found rest for the night. Previous
nights, he had slept in barns and on boats. Af-
ter being found by Justice House, he was taken
10 lDe Orphan Asylum, that noble and philan-
hropic institution, which is so well deserving
lh patronage of our citizens, where ho was
wen careu lor.
The father, who heard the boy's story, and
after conversing wiih a gentleman from Oswe-
go, resolved to go to Oswego Sunday evening,
which he did. We saw him for a moment on
his relurn. veslerdav morninc. Ho savs that
, j j 0 j
Golden owned he had the boy, for near three
years, and found him in New York. The fath-
er, with the found boy, left here yesterday
morning in the cars for home, where a mother
awaits the arrival ot the lost son. 1 he ioy
which his presence will give her, after so much
anguish, doubt, and uncertainty, can be imag-
ined by a mother, but not described by a faiher.
The boy had no recollection of his father.
Had always been told that his father was an
Englishman, and that both his father and moth
er were dead. He says he has been well ta
ken care of, and hat been sent to school a por
tion of the time.
The whole subject is still shrouded in mys
tery, and it is difficult to conjecture the object
which those had who took him from home. He
was missing from home on the 8th of October,
1846, on which day Howe & co's circus came
into Albany; and the father has always sup
posed, until now, that he was stolen by the
circus company, to be trained to'their business;
and so firm was this belief, that he has hired
a man, who has been with the company in
which Dan Rice was engaged, for six months ;
but no clue, during this time, 'was obtained of
the boy.
The father informed us that he had
spent upwards of $300 in travelling, in search
of his son. He has, during the last three years,
seen several advertisements and paragraphs in
the nowspapers, speaking of strange boys,
which he has followed up, to no purpose, until
this time. Syracuse Daily Star, Oct. 2.

Religious revivals seem to be much in vogoo
in parts of Mississippi. At a camp meeting
held near Paulding, there have been seventy
or eighty converts. At another meeting five

number at another place, and about one hun-

The Susquehanna Register under-states the

72 lbs., and then asks the farmers out that way
to beat it ! Instead of " 108" lbs., put the fig
up to 180, and then you will be correct. It
isn't fair friend Chapman, to disparage any
thing not ten a pumpkin.
By the way, the Orange county papers no

and 159 lbs. Fair specimens, certainlv : but
not up to the mark by a long shot. Newton is

squirrel comes capering along, he runs afier
him, even up the tree ; but they are so much
afraid of each other they dare not come in very
close contact. Sometimes they go near iha
kitchen door to gather ihe crumbs that are
scattered, when the kind hearted domestics
give the kitten something suited to his tasie
and habits. Thus they spend day after day in
their rambles, and when evening approaches,

Arsenic ill Flour.
The family of Isaac Vandevert, of Green
brook, Middlesex Co., some 8 or 10 in number,
were made sick a few days ago by eating cakes
made from flour in the house. All vomited
more or less, and several were thrown into
very perilous condition. A portion of the flour
was subsequently submitted to Profossot Keed
of N. Y. City Hospital, who found arsenic in
making the analysis doubtless mixed wiih the
flour by some vile person with malignant intent.
A thorough search is making to ascertain
how.
A little boy seeing a drunken man postrate
before the door of agroggery, opened the door,
and putting in his head, said to the proprietor,
" See here, neighbor, your sign has fallen

Potatoes. From year to year we have
carefully chronicled the appearance of the po
tato crop as it approached the season of matur

of our farmers, and they uniformly state that

Fits! Fits!! Fit!!!
Dr. Townsend, not having tested his Sarsaparilla in cases
of Fits, of course, never recoameuded it, and was surprised
to receive the following from an intelligent and respectable
Farmer in Westchester County;
Fordham, August 13, 1817.
Dr. To Kin end D e ar Sir: I have a little ztrl, seven years
of age, who has been several years afflicted with Fits ; wo
tried almost everything for her, but without success ; at last,
allhoagh wa could find no recommendation in your circulars
for cases like hers, we thought, as she was in very delicate
health, wc would give her some of your SarsapariUa. and ara
very glad we did, for it not only restored her strength, but she
has had no return of the Fits, to our great pleasure and sur
prise. She is fast becoming rugged and healthy, for which wo
fn grateful. Yours, respectfully,

Dr. Towntend's 8ars"apariIIa is a sovereign and speedy care
for Incipient Consumption, Barrenness, Prolapsus Uteri, or
Falling of tho Womb. Costiveness, Piles, I.eucorrhcea, or
Whitet, obstructed or difficult Manstruation, Incontinence of
Urine, or involuntary discharge thereof, and for the general
prostration of the system no matter whether tha result
of inherent cause or causes, produced by irregularity, illness
or accident. Nothing can be more surprising than its in
vigorating effects en the human frame. Persons all weakness
nd lassitude, from taking it, at once become robust and full
of energy under its influence. It immediately counteracts
the nervelessnesa of the female frame, which is th- great cause
of Barrenness. It will not be expected of us, in cases of so
delicate a nature, to exhibit certificates of cures performed, w
but we can assure the afflicted, that hundreds of cases havo
been reported to us. Thousands of cases where families have
been without chUdren, after using a few bottles of this invalua
ble Medicine, have been blessed with fine, healthy offipring.
Great Bletjaiag te mother a aad Children.
It is the safest and most effectual medicine for parifyingrtha
system, and relieving the sufferings attendant upon child
birth ever discovered. It strengthens both the mother aod
the ehild, prevents pain and disease. Increases and enriches
the food ; those who have used it, tbiuk it is indispeusa.'
ble. It is highly useful both before and after confinement,
as it prevents diseases attendant upon child-birth in Cos.
ttveness. Piles, Cramps Swelling of the Feet, Drspondency,
Hmrthnrn. Vomiiinff. Pain in the Back and Loins. Falsa Pains.
Hemorrhage, and in regulating the secretions and equalizing
the circulation, it has no equal. The great beauty of this
medicine is, it is always safe, and the most delicate use it
most successfully, very few cases require any other medi
cine, in some a little Castor Oil, or Magnesia is useful. Ex
ercise in the open air, and light food with this medicine, will
always secure a safe and easy confinement.
Beauty aad Health.
Cosmetics, Chalk, and a variety of preparation generally
in use, when applied to the face, vary soon spoil it of iu
beauty. They close the ports of the skin, and check the circu
lation, which, when nature is not thwarted by distase or
powder, or the skin Inflamed by the alkalies used in soaps,
beautifies its own production in tho " human face Divine,"
as well at in the garden of rich and delicately tinted varie
gated flowers. A free, active and healthy circulation of tho
fluids, or the coursing of tha pure, rich blood, to the extremi
ties, is that which paints the countenance in the most exqui
site beauty. It it that which imparts tha indescribable shadot
and flashes of loveliness that all admire, but none can de
scribe. Thit beauty it tho offspring of nature not ofpoieder
or soap. If there it not a free and healthy circulation, there
is no beauty. If tho lady it fair at driven snow, if she paints,
and use cosmetics, and the blood is thick, cold and impura,
tho it not beautiful. If she be brown or yellow, and tbera
is pure and active blood, it gives a rich bloom to the cheeks,
aad a briUianey to their eyas that is fascinating.
This it why the southern, and especially the Spanish ladies,
ara to much adrairtd. Ladies in the north, who take but
little exercise, or are confined ia close rooms, or have spoiled
their complexion by the application of deleterious mixtures,
if they wish to regain elasticity of step, buoyant spirits, spark
ling eyet and beautiful complexion, thty should use Dr.
Townsend'a Strtaparilla. Thousands who have tried it, are
mora than satisfied, ara delighted. Ladies of every station
crowd our office daily.

Dr. TnestdDcir Sir : I am constrained to give you a
Statement of the benefit I derived from using your Sarsapa
riUa, believing, by so doing, I tball render benefit to those

month! by tha Dyspepsia, so much that it was with much dlf
fkulty for ma to walk or keep about. I had also a tetter,
which covered the most part of my head wWajfe wit ex
trifIv troublesome and tora : it rot to be almost a scab. 1

received iittla or no benefit, until I took your Sanaparilla,
which, through the kindness of Providence, has restored m
to more than ray usual health, at I ara now enjoying better
lhan I have for a number of-yaars. I ara now 60 years of
