Compare this with) Ilempetead a county that has only 113 1 more persons entitled to Tote, but about half of whom axe While onlt 854 are allowed to rote In Benton, in Hempstead the number permitted to rote was 26041 Is Boone, an almost exclu- sirely white county, we find only S12 roter, where there are 1321 male citixens orer twenty ne years of age. In Carroll the result is about the samethe rote being only 316, where there are 1056" persons oid enough to rote. Let us compare Boone with Chicot.

The former county with only 74 colored people, has only 312. roters, out of a roting population of 132L i Chicot, with 1578 persons old enough to rote or only 257 more than Boone but about 1200 oKlhem colored east 2561 rotes, while Boon only roted 8121 In Chicot eae out of every three of the pop-1 ulatioa rotes whether old enough or not while in Boone the proportion is I old enough to rote the former having I 1545, and the latter 1784.1 One-half the population of Drew is colored in Frank-1 hiiuh jiiwiiuiiw, ah 1 Drew there are 1554 voters, while Frank-1 lin has only 754.

The former has 1458 male citizens over twenty-one, and 384 voters; St. Francis 1 1607. with 1010 rotei. i In other words, St. Francis, where there tea large colored rote, has 626 more rotera than Bandoloh.

In I the former county the colored people are I largely in the majority in the latter 1 there are but 19 The former has I a voting population of 1155, and -1104 voters; the latter a voting population of 743, and only 177 voters.

We invite particular attention to this part of the subject by those who I uesireto know something of reconstruc- tion.

We next invite attention to this phase of the subject. On glancing at the table it will be seen that we have in the state 102,359 male citizens orer twenty-one years of age. According to the registra- tion we have 71,885 registered voters, This is not correct, as we will show here- after. But suppose it is correct we see that 30,474 persons were disfranchised in I 1870. The organ of ex-Gov.

Clay-1 ton and of the present administration I stated, some time, since, that not more I than 8000 persons were disfranchised by I the constitution of the state. That being true, we find that, by the organ's own figures, ex-Gov. Clayton's registrars I UUpdly deprived 22,474 persona of the 1 right to rote in 1870. But we claim that I the vote cast more nearly represents the number that were permitted vote, as we will endeavor to shew below. There I were 53,800 rotes cast.

Deduct this from the number Of male citizens over twenty- one years of age and we find we find iised.or as the that 48,559 persons were disfranch; 40,559 illegally counting 8000 nnmhAf IbmHv 4rarrnrhiaoH alll I not do, in reply, to say that the people would not turn out and register and vote, Let US in wbat countiea and dintririm I i the great "majority of the disfranchise-1 menu occurred. be calculations below I i i.v- jI SxxteentA Uutrxct.

Clayton in the election frauds in Arkansas in 1870. We would like to call the attention of that committee to the showing we have made, directing their particular attention to the fact that every registration officer in the state, antecedent to his election, was aa appointee or Clayton, subjecv-to removal at his pleaTOre. It is hardly pociible that the astonishing results shown above could be brought about without his knowledge or connivance. It ia well re membered here that although the law re quired all the registrars to be appointed on or before the 1st day of August, 1870, yet out tew suca omcera were appointed before that day and for weeks and months alter, up to within a few dsys of -vt ..1 mciiin ox rcgiBtruB were aoiea obi, la mc face of nniversaL outspoken.

Clayton's power orer the reg-iatratton of 1870 was. but a very email portion of bis power and plan to elect himself to. the United States senate, sa will be seen at a glance as to the power of appointment vested in mm a power greater than that of the czar or sultan. It can be said of Gov. Clayton, perhaps more truly than of any other man in the senate, that he was the architect of his own fortune." i- NEW ADVERTISEMENTS.

Clsyton was first elected United States senator on the 10th of January. 1871, receiving twenty-three rotes in the senate and seventy-one in the bouse. to elect a man of their own choice, and Gov. Clayton had promised to' inan. gurate and carry out many needed re- forma.

No sooner was he elected, how- than he did the very reverse to what he had promised. His majority in both houses became defiant and intolerant, and ousted a member of the house, Thornburr, because he was a democrat, in order to room for a supple tool of the admin- wtraUon. This, together with the effort J'P the lieutenant gorernor for other reason than that Got. Clay bad promised to get rid of him. that one of hu owa tools might fill the execu Uve chair aroused the indignation of beUer element of the house, who turned the tables upon the gorernor, and impeached him but the majority of the senate, owned by the executive, fled to the woods, and prevented a quorum for eleven days, in order to keep the articles from being presented to that body.

In the meantime Clayton worked upon the managers, and succeeded ia getting a re- Port adopted in the house withdrawing charges. Then followed the resigna- uon of the lieutenant governor and the secretary of state, and the appointment of aa former to the letter office, in accord- Knc with an arrangement made with him to get out of the was after the governor had declined to accept the storship as long as there wss a prospect of lieutenant governor succeeding htm.

Crand The abore table has been compiled! from official documents, and can be re- lied on as correct. AVe direct particular .1 I attention to and the study of it. In the first column of figures we gire the number of male citizens orer twenty-one years of age in each county and senatorial and representative district, as taken from the census report of 1870; second, the registered rote of each county and district as reported to the secretary of state by the registrars of 1870; third, the number of rotes cast for congressmen in 1870, in eacb county and district, according to the governor's proclamation declaring the re suit of the fourth, the number of disfranchised according to the regis-' tered rote; fifth, the number disfranchised according to the rote sixth, the population, of each countr and district, both white and colored, according to the census of 1870; serenth, the number of senators and representatives in each district, and eighth, the counties comprising eacb senatorial and representative district, with a grand total of the whole. TRI LEGISLATIVE EOSTKICTS. The manner in which the senatorial and representative districts, were created, and the apportionment of senators and representatireswe doubt not is unparal leled for villainy ia the history of any of the states of the union.

To those acquainted with the nature of the population kad geographical position of the different counties, this fact is apparent at once, while a glance at the figures and the map of the state will convince the most skeptical, tjounties sre thrown together whose borders are more than one hundred miles apart, and which have no local interest ia common. Four or five white counties are together where the whites largely predominate, and then is added a county with sufficient colored rote to elect the entire legislative ticket of the district, thereby depriving the white counties from any representation whatever. Ia others sgain, where no negro county could be added, six or sevea white counties are massed together and the representation cut down. Glancing at the population of the stete, we find that we have 434,471 citizens 362,115 whites, and 122,109 colored 239,948 more whites than colored, or a population of whites searly three times as great as the blacks. Under our constituiicm the -department i twenty-six sentters and eigLly-two representatives or a eenator for every of lie popu lation, and; a representalire for every 5.920.

Ther are tntT.iwn'un.A;.i and represeiitalire districts. It needs only .1.. a glance at the table to show that there was totalj disregard of the' numerical weight of the population in making the apportionment. The First district, with a population of 21,103, has one senator and four The Third dis trict, with a population of SC.e'l--or more tharj one-third greater than the First baa pQ'y the same number of representatives while the Second district. with a population of 5317 greater than the First, has pa representative less.

The Fourth district with a pepulationof only 19,673, has; as many representatives as the Second, which has a population of 26.420". The Ninth! district, with a population of only 17,436, has one senator and four representatives the same number as the Third, the! latter having a population of 36,671, or more than double that of the Ninth while the Twelfth has only 13,890 citizens, sad the same representation as the Third. These differences are explained by the fact that Crittenden county, in the Ninth district, has a -large majority of colored people, sufficient to overbalance the rote of the other counties, where the white rote is in the majority, So in the Twelfth district, where the negro major! tyin Arkansas county preponderates the rote of the whites in the county attached to it. The Eleventh district, with a pop ulation of 23, 1 08, has two senators and six representatives, or one senator and two representatives more than the Third, not withstanding the latter has 12,963 more people. jThe Eleventh district has double the representation uf the Second district, notwithstanding the latter has a population of 2712 greater than the Eleventh.

But thef latter is it' negro district, while the Second la largely white. Hempstead county is made a separate district J(tb Fourteenth), and with a population of only 13,763, has one senator and three representatives, or the same number as the Second, the latter with a population of 23,420. The white population in Hempstsad is slightly ia the majority, but bf fraudulent manipulation it was though it could be carried fey the ia the Second it would be aa utter impos eltui'y The Fifteenth district (Ikck) wuh a population of 12,375. or 11, CM less than the Second, has the same represent tation. Both the Fourteenth snd Fifteenth Ltricts have one representative more than the Sixteenth, wLila the latter has a greater than cULer.

0 b. i Seventh district, have 7333 male citizens ever iwenty-one years 01 age. or tins I number about 200 are colored, counting I one to every five of the colored popula- tion. In this di disfranchised in 1870. In.

Ilemnstead I county (the Fourteenth distr it), which has 2687 male citizens abore the age of twenty-one, about equally divided a to I bad only JW person a diefranchijied. Indeed, the registrar wss so liberal in i this county that he registered 281 more persons than there were bf male citizens over twenty-one in the county. The becond district has 5J0o persons entitled to vote, about ZUQ of them colored. Oat of this 5305, S716 were disfranchised, The Twentieth district has 5616 persons entitled to the franchise about the same as the Second but only 1641 were de- privea ox we ngnt to vote, and they pnn- cipally in the white county of Bradley, -tucnu. Indeed, while the latter county haa but little over double the number of male auzene orer twenty-one as the former, she has more than three times as many voters.

This is explained the fact that Jefferson has black population iwice as great as tne wnites, while Urad- rhila Brad- ley has populaUon more th.a twice thatof the blacks. The Twen.y-first district hss 2680 male citizens over twen- Of ill ia nnm r-woi nssrlieinsi 1 A aaan i7 'zr-ZizT. blacks. The number of disfranchised in this district is 1250. or nearly half the Iv half th.

ly half the male population old enough- to vote. Ouachita (the Nineteenth district) has 2635 male citizens over twentv-one. Nearly half of these are colored' eon uently she has one-third less disfran- up of whites almost entirely. The Third district has 6735 male citizens over twenty-one. Of this number about 100 are colored.

The disfranchisement in this district foots up 4031 only 1750, out of a voticg population of 6735, being allowed to vote. The Twenty-second district hss dui more persons entitled to vote tnaa tae ihird, or bb-. Of this oumber more Uiaa nul are tiacts.

J- uus it, up the is I i I I I I i I I cinets. there were two sets of polls. Tbe returns from but one set of judges Wo'ei counted, we can only judge of tniim. ber of voters by the registered vote. A word now as to the correctness otthe registrars returns to the secretary of stale.

Chicot county the names of 004 a sons more than there were, male citizens OTer twenty-one, were placed on the reg-' Lstry, and these names are reported to the secretary of state as registered voters.
