House has introduced a bill to provide for the | redemption of the Bills of the Bank of the State, which bill is said to have the sanction j1 of Governor Chamberlain and the Atterney- i * General. The general provisions of the bill * are as follows : j? The Governor is directed to appoint, before * the first Monday In April next, a Commission t of three competent citizens of the State, who , c shall ascertain, as far as practicable, the ^ whole amount of bills issued by the Bank of p the State, the amount issued in aid of the re- i belliou, the amount outstanding, and the B amount of the bills that are valid and subsist- ; f ing obligations of the State. Such of the bills n f as shall be found to be valid obligations of j f the State shall be stamped "legal" by the ; * Commission. The Commission shall have i power to send for persons and papers, and are required to render a final report to the General Assembly on or before the fourth Tuesday in November next. The Attorney-Gen- > eral is required to atteud the session of the ( Commission, for the expenses of which the { sum of eight thousand dollars is appropriated. j The hills that snail oe stamped as legal oy the Commission are made receivable for taxes, j as follows: First, for the redemption of forfeited lands; second, for taxes past due at the r" date of the passage of the act, provided that j the bills shall be tendered on or before the I \ first day of January next. In all cases where s taxes shall be levied for the State, except for s the support of the free schools and for the j payment of the interest on the public debt, it is made the duty of the County Treasurer to receive, in payment of such taxes, from each person paying the same, one-fifth of the [ amount of his taxesin the bills of the Bank of the State stamped and attested as before mentioned. All bills so received shall be stamped by the County Treasurers, "Received for Taxes," together with the date of the receipt and the name of the person or persons from whom received, and the County Treasurers are ' directed to report to the Comptroller-General < -? the number and amount of such bills sore- ] * o ceived. Ad annual lax 01 one auu a nan ( mills is levied for the purpose of redeeming the said bills, and the County Auditors are directed to include this tax in their annual levies for the next five fiscal years. The proceeds of the levies are appropriated to the re- j demptiou of such bills as may be received for J taxes. \ The State Treasurer is directed to demand 1 from the Receiver of the Bauk the sum of j 846,437 81 in bills of the Bank, being the i amount taken by W. C. Courtney, Receiver, in payment of notes discounted before the assets of the said Bank became a fund in equity ; also, any other bills which may hereafter r be paid into the hands of any Receiver in the ~ said cause. These bills are to be cancelled in j the presence of the Comptroller-General, a The holder of any of the bills who may be 1 aggrieved by the action and decision of the Commission'concerning the same, is given the right to proceed by mandamus, and, in the { event of obtaining a favorable decree, the bill shall be approved by the Commission. All the j bills not presented by the Commission before the first Monday in November next are declared invalid, so far as any act of the Geueral Assembly may make them so. < Strong Republican Talk.?The Chicago ' Tribune (Republican) is pointed and severe r>?:j?*>? ??????? in lis comments upuu me i resiueuuo mcaoagc on Arkansas affairs. It says the defects al- ( leged in the Arkansas constitution are "neith- . er grave or vital," and adds: " The instrument was ratified by the people. J Now it is the judgment of the highest authorities on constitutional law in this country that such a ratification cures all defects. Judge Jamieson has shown, in his work on constitutional conventions, that scarcely any such convention has ever been held in precise accordance with legal forms. In nearly every case there has been some irregularities or defects, but popular ratification has cured them all. If we apply this sound doctrine in 'fhe State has the Republican form of government guaranteed by the Constitution of the natiou. Governor Garland finds no one to dispute his authority at home. Only a few carpet-baggers oppose him at Washington. The laws are in force. The judiciary is firmly established. Peace and quiet reign over the State for the first time since 1861. The de facto government is also de jure, as we have shown. It is a fait accompli. It has possession. It is respected by the majority and obeyed by all. Interference with it would be a blunder or worse. Moreover, we have one " hell " on our hands in the South already. This is the limit demanded by the most orthodox creed. Louisiana is euough. Are we to organize another "hell" iu Arkansas for the sake of a crowd of carpet-baggers ? Let us keep our hauds off. Perpetual meddling will only make matters worse. Arkansas is getting along remarkably well, and the Executive authorities at Washington had better let well enough alone." Jfioirial aiti) Commercial.
