W PINK BLUF?, AUK., August 7.-Not withstanding the groat financial deprcs- < sion that lias hoon Jolt all over Arkan- 1 sns the present summer, tho prospects \ of the State wore never brighter or i inore encouraging.

Cattle are in fine condition, hud tho woods arc alive with hogs and Wild game. The game law will soon bc out for this season, thou ticer and turkey hunting will begin. This mar ket is kept glutted with game during the winter. I have seen as many as twelve deer brought, in ata time. The "tinny tribe" is very abundant in tho river herc, and it is no uncommon tiling to see fish that, will weigli from fifty to seventy-five pounds ??1 the market. A carload of immigrants from North and South Carolina, Qoorgin and Ala bama are expected to land at Monti cello on the 15th instant. A committee of citizens have been appointed to meet thc I rain at Vicksburg and accom pany thc immigrants to Mont*, clio, where they will be cordially received and a grand barbecue given in honor of their arrival. They could not have selected a Letter limo toc?me, for they will find tho.countrv willi lier best foot foremost, and it is tho general wish of these people that they may he pleased to make this their future home, and that many others will follow their example. Arkansas is a great State, and all that is needed to place her among thc first in thc Union is more good industrious people to settle up tim country and push forward thc work of improvement that is already rapidly going on. If you will allow the space l will give you a copy of a report from this State, published at New Orleans during thc Exposition, which gives a wider knowledge and better description of thc progross of thc Stale than I am, proparod lo give in my own language: A review of the history and progress of Arkansas, since her incorporation into Hie Union, shows much of which her people may be proud. Originally a part of thc French territorial posses sions in this country, Arkansas was acquired by thc United States bv pur chase in 1808. On Mardi 1*17, she was created a Territory, and on .lune 15, 18:iG, she was admitted as a State into the Union. lu 1820her popula tion was hut 14,000. In 18iJ;i it ex- j ceedod one million. Arkansas is situated in Hie cotton ] belt, and lias an acreage of 62,198 i square miles. She ls particularly for tunate in tho possession of navigable streams-the mississippi, White, Ar- 1 kansas. Black, Ked, Ouuchitu, Little lied and other rivers furnishing ample facilities for tlie transportation of her wealth of production, lu point of fertility, Arkansas cannot be excelled, as evinced by the variety and value of her harvest. She is particularly rich in her timber growth. In lier forests aro found all varieties of the oak, beech, hackborry, maple, pine, paw paw, wild cherry, walnut, locust, elm, and many others- Of fruit, tho grape, peach, plum, strawberry, raspberry, apple and pear are in bounteous sup ply, and tho award of a gold medal by thc World's Exposition attests their excellence. Tho cereals are grown to advantage, and prolific crops of clover, timothy and oilier grasses carpet her pastures. Thc minerai deposits are extensive, varied and valuable. Their yield is limited only by the labor ap plied lo extract them. Tile medicinal waters of Arkansas aro of world-wide reputation. Eureka and Hot Springs are tho resorts of thousands of afflicted whom the skill of the physicians has failed to relieve. Of the system of public schools, too much cannot bc said in praise. With liberal cdowmcnts, careful fos tering, and capable instructors thc standard of cducntion is deservedly high. It is gratifying to notice that ?acli succeeding year material!) do? creases thc ratio of illiteracy. In internal and public improvement Arkansas manifests great energy and /.cal. Works of permanent Improve? nient continue to multiply, and evi dences of progress are seen oil every side. Handsome structures, beautiful crops, magnificent forests, health? giving springs, prolific soil and a genial, healthful climate arc among the many attractions of Arkansas. Of her people it may lie truly said that they are worthy of their grand possessions. Brave, energetic, intelli gent and enterprising, they will un doubtedly supplement thc achievements of tlie past by slili more brilliant ones in the future. Orators, poets, warriors and statesmen have ever kept Hie record of Arkansas brigid amt illus trious. No State in tlie Union lias a brighter rainbow of promise. K. J. c. iiiuiKeMtion Cured. I suffered for more than live years willi indigestion, scarcely allie to retain the simplest tooti on my stomach. Tlie burning sensation was almost intolera ble, and my whole system was derang ed. I was wakeful and could not sleep and consequently more or less nervous all Hie lime. I declined in flesh, and suffered all tho usual depression at tendant upon this terrible disease.

CH AH>**t ?'?'??f?A?U? S Ali; titi.? ti ! . i - rr rtte KfforU Staking to Find the Slayer* of Mullida McKnight The Detective* Claim to llave the Hight Man. (fiYomtke Charleston Sunday Dis? atch.) Tho city council of Charloston s?v irai weeks ago wrote to thc world renowued Pinkerton detective agency, .. J asked for one of their shrowdest men, a veritable human hawk, to trail Ibo murderers of Matilda McKnight to justice and to doom. Shortly after ward a thick-sot, dark-hatred young man of about thirty arrived in Charles ton and quietly introduced himself to tho olhcers of thc city as Clayton M. Weber, of thc Pinkerton agency, and was given the few vague and feeble clues already in possession of thc authorities-clues willoh tended lo mystify rather than clear up thc mur der, lt is said in illustration of this man's aptitude for bis business, that after hoing introduced to a prominent city otlicial, tho latter was innocent enough to ask tho detective if bc knew bow to disguise himself. Tho doleotivo looked at him vacantly and said ho hadn't thought ofthat, but If it was necessary lie could try. An hour or so utter tiic conversation, an aged and decrepit! negro man called at the otlieial's otlice and induced him to buy a dozen peaches out of charity. The aged negro was tho Pinkerton detec tive, whose identity was not suspected, and would never have been known if tho joke had not leaked out on Ibo otlicial. On taking charge of thc case, Mr Weber repaired to the neighborhood of the crime, where he soon became well known by the neighborhood, although his identity and business were not suspected. After work inti several days ho became satisfied that thc parlies already arrested were innocent, and that thc real mur derers had not been suspected. For two or three weeks bis labors were apparently without result, and thc few pooplo who knew he was nero bogan to believe that even thc Pinkerton man was hauled, and would go home with out his game. On Thursday last, however, the result of his labor was indicated by his swearing out warrants for Mr. Silas Daly, thc white truck fanner who found the bundles on tho morning after the murder, Thomas Divine, a col ored man in his employ, and Amanda Martin, his cook. They were taken to jail without bail, and that evening Lieutenant Sigwald, of tho police force, Detective Weber and several citizens, including a Dispatch re porter, visited the house and premises of Mr. Daly, situated on Rutledge avenue, nearly Opposite the house of Matilda McKnight, the murdered wo man, the latter being set back seventy live yards from the street, and cut oil' from thc street by a vacant lot over grown with woods. Mr. Daly's premises were in charge ol' a colored man deputed by the sherill' to take care of them. The house was oponed to the otllcers and reporter and a thorough search was made. Mr. Daly, who had been living ill the neighborhood about two years, is a bachelor of nearly sixty, though he looks much younger. Mis house isa low, narrow, cream-colored frame building, with tho gable toward the Street, ll is one story high and com posed ot three rooms in a row, each room being as wide as tho house, leav ing a few feet for the little piazza In front. The Pinkerton man was alert and busy and restless. With his vest unbuttoned and his sleeves rolled tip he pumped a bucket of water, and carried it to the little front gate and put it down. Ile returned to the house and procured a broom and hatchet and chisel. Ile swept the sin gle plank sill that runs even with the ground between the ??ate posts, until a cow could have licked it without sand ing her tongue. Ile then began tc wash it with the bucket of water. After exhausting his bucket of water he let the sun dry the sill and then bc leaned over it and gazed long and anxiously at thc bare plank. Rising lie procured another bucket of water and washed until il was exhausted. Then another and another. Finally the sill was allowed to dry a second time. As tho dampness began to evap?rale, | and thc plank began to whiten, two red bloody-looking stains which had been invisible before appeared Oil its face. The crowd gathered around with an exclamation of surprise. Thc detective then took up his chisel and hatchet and began to pick around tho red stained spot. He soon chiseled out a chip from each placo-tho chips retaining the stains after being re moved from the sill. A larger chip was then taken out ol' thc three-plank bridge across the ditch in front ot thc gate, it having been submitted to the same process of washing. These chips were placed carefully in evelopes and labeled and stowed away in the Pink erton man's pocket. A spado was next procured, and with that the detective, felt and loosen ed every tuft of grass in the little yard and sounded every suspicions looking spot, bis indention doubtless being to lind the missing hat and parasol. Failing in this, his search of the prem ises was completed, and the crowd left the house in charge of thc sheriffs dep uty. Ten o'clock on Saturday morning was the hour appointed for the txaini nation of the three prisoners. Daly, Divine and Amanda Martin, before Trial Justice Whitman. At ten min utes past ten o'clock the examination began hy swearing Simon Washington. Ile was frightened. His laddlcdikc legs sm..t.- together and bis tongue rolled in his head like a beet in a boil ing kettle. His testimony was sub stantially the same as that given by several others before the esroner's jury relative lo his being present when tho bundles and body .vere found. Ho sahl bc was goidg to his work that morning, when he was accosted by Mr. Daly, who told lum to get over iii the lot and hand him the bundled, which lie did. He said ha would not know Mr. Daly again if he saw him, and he Tailed to point him out in Ihn court room. Lieutenant Sigwald, of thc police force, waa sworn next. He testified lo tho facts in regard to finding the crowd iron nd the body on the morning ol' tho Uh of July, and also lo having assisted lotcctlvo Weber In searching tho prem 8C8 of Mr. Daly. Dr. T. S. Grlmke was next sworn md examined at considerable length ipon tho condition of Mrs. McKnight's jody when found. Ho gavo tho samo cstimony substantially as that given >cforo tho coroner. At tho conclusion if his testimony tho examination nd ournod unlil 9.30 o'clock a. m., on donday morning. It is not known what tho testimony o bo eh. lied Monday will he, as tho ?risoners nro not permitted to soe oporto rs or any one else. Detective \ ? Ul ^1111 IlW^lllllMmilMail..*WWMlil VVc?J?i-, however, blftlbii liittlii? jiit? DVldoi.ee enough to convict Daly and Divine. At any rato, tho proof he has wus submitted to two luwyers, ono of j whom is thc solicitor, heforo tho arrest and thc arrests wcro made by their advice In addition to tho prisoners I mentioned, Jack Uro wu, colored, was arrested on Thursday bj-Official Harry May? who believed "him lo be} ono of thc murderers, and this opinion is sustained by tho testimony of tho woman Amanda Martin. Thiswoman made a confession to un officer in tho presence ol'a third party on Thursday iinmediateh after lier arrest, which is tho most direct and startling informa tion yet dieted in regard to thc mur der. Amanda Martin, Daly's cook, ill her quasi confession said: "I came to Mr. Daly's house on tho morning after tlic murder to get breakfast at about .r> o'clock. Mr. Daly refused to admit mc, and I licaid Iii m and .lack Brown and Tom Divine talking inside An 'nour or two later I wae admitted. The men had been scouring tho floor, and somo of thc bcd clothes wcro bloody. When I asked what tt incant I Mr. Daly told mc to keep my mouth sim. about it. Mr. Daly was very much excited tliat day, and frequently left tho house and wentout in tho yard. Several nights aller the murder when tliey tiicy thought 1 was gone, l heard Mr. Daly and Brow ll ana Divine talk ing about thc killing and 1 heard them say tiicy did it. Mr. Daly told Brown and Divine lie was going to give them a hundred dollars apiece for toting out tito body I also heard them say they liad buried thc hat and para-ol, but tiley did not say where I kept all this a secret until now because I wus afraid to tell it." Opinions are divided as to tho result ol'this investigaron. But the general drift of public opinion gravitates to ward the belief that tho Pinkerton man lias woven Iiis chain without a lacking link, and that at thc proper time he will prove it. One thing is almost! axiomatic-tlic bottom of the McKnight murder mystery is nearly readied, and tho circle of safety in which her slayeis are hiding is growing smaller day by" day. [Tiic examination continued through last week. Daly was committed to jail, to await trial ill t he Court of J General Sessions.] WK AT TIM: I IN I it AI, COST. Tho Kxpenso of the (inuit Pageant la a Mullel of O urun Work. All that, lias boen published concern ing tito cost of Gen, Grant's funeral is pure guess-work. Tilings have not yet taken snell shape that it could be other? wise. Mr. Merritt, thc undertaker, said that lie could not tell whether Ilia hill would be twenty thousand dollars or twenty thousand cents. He did not know yet what the expense of numbers of details had been lo him, anti until he knew this it was impossible to make even an approximate estimate of what his charges would he. Thc fust order came to liim in a telegram from Col. Fred Grant the day tho General died. This covered tho canopy, tho coffin, tho embalming and all that was done at Mount McGregory. Tho second order came from thc war department and covered the funeral car, live hundrod carriages and the. work in New York. So tar as he knew now he should ren der one bill to tho Government ind another to Col. Grunt. What thc doctors' bills arc is equally as much in doubt. Dr. Douglas up to tlic time of Hie General's death had received from tlic family only $1,000. This was in tlic form of a check made out by tho General himself on receiving au instalment of Iiis retired pay. The family have as yet received nothing from the General's book, and probably will receive from it much less than has been asserted. They get seventy cents on the volume and up to tlie tuno of tlic General's death their share from thc subscrip tions now in amounted to about $10, OOO. They have received no advances from tho publishers. Col. Grant is( without resources, but will have a valuable property when lie has com pleted thc biography of his father, upon which he will nt once ?ct to work. Tlic disposition of some of thc most valuable momentocs of Hie funeral lias already been tlccip .d upon. Tlic large American flag that was laid on thc icc casket at Mount McGregor will lie re tained by Col. Grant. One of tlic flags that was on thc funeral car will he given lo tho U. 8. Grant Post, G. A. H., one to Hie 7th Regiment, New York, and one to Mrs. Dr. Newman. Tlic.manner in which thc fourth one is lo be disposed of lias not yet been de cided upon.

She had been ill with consump tion (or time amt came herc six weeks ago hoping to gain strength in the mountain air. She was taken to the Hotel tie Gower a month or more ago, hut was brought down on Saturday on her way home.

"Mr. ICIevos land's tdtitudo toward tho South bas hot been such as to piense a ver>\ largo clement of tho Southern Democracy, but lt has been such as will best advance tho interests of that section mid finally strengthen thc party throughout tho country. Thc party workers who were waiting to swoop down upon thc offices and get as much as they could iu thc scramble, arc disappointed and out of humor. In some cases, remark ably that of Louisiana, tho minority faction of tho party has been rccog niced to fho niter exclusion of tito great body of thc practical politicians who havo boon peddling ballots nt tito polls. But tito offices, it is said, havo gone as a general thing to men against whom no objection could bo urged, and tile bund of the Administration has been extended to strengt lien Ute conservative Democrats who arc seek ing to purify polities throughout tito South. In most cases Ibo lucid Fed eral offices have been turtled over to tho Democrats, but not to lite 'crafts men,' to bc used as political tools. Thc result lias been to give the people in that section confidence itt lite Ad ministration.

Another gentleman in iii; cussing tile same subject, said: "The disaffect ed will not revolt at once ?ind throw thc Government back imo tho hands of the Republicans, as, however, dis satisfied they arc with the Democratic Administration, they preter it to the Republican. Tlicy will, however, as soon as Hie Democracy's permanency in power seems assured, begin :i tit? 111 for supremacy in tho parly.
