Little Rock, Jan. 22, 1873. Not quite two years since, a corporation was formed under the laws of this state for the purpose of building and carrying on a first-class female school at this place, known and called tbe Arkansas female college at Little Rock. The board of trusteed constated of the undersigned, who are stiil'acting in that capacity, lbe plan is to proceed imme diately to purchase the ground, and erect the buildings, upon securing sumcien, subscriptions. Jn older to insure and hasten subscriptions, the trustees, with the sanction and co-operation the Lit tie Rock annual conference, have engaged the services of Rev.

A. K. Winfield, who will at once engage canvassing the state, and he is most cardial recom mended to the friends of education and improvement everywhere in Arkansas. No argument can be needed to com mend this project to you. Ii speaks for itself and proclaims its own rnerit.

The trustee? urge you to aid Dr, Winfield all you can, that, at an early day, a female school may be in operation at the capital of the state, which will mprethan compensate for the money and labor expended in its erection an completion one which: will be a substantial and lasting ornament to the state.

ADDBESS OF THE AGEJIT. Above we have the pleasure of placing before your numerous reader the circular address of the board of trustees of the Arkansas Female col leg'. You will see from said ddies that this ia but the renewal of an effort commenced two years ago to bnild a first class female college in Little Rjck. You1 will ak see that said college ia to be the joint; property of the three conferences of the M. E.

Church South, to-wit the Arkansas, White river and Little Rock. The last two named have already adopted it, and we have every assurance that tbe other will at its next session. You wilt also see from the above address that the undersigned has been the request of the board of trus tees; appointed an agent to solicit funds to buy grounds and put up suitable buildings for the college. The plan which we have purposed to carry lout thia design-and which the board has approved is aa follow: First To appoint a committee to select suitable grounds. Secondly To canvass thoroughly this city, and see what amount can be raised in good negotiable bonds, payable in twelve or twenty -four months, in monthly, quarterly, semiannual or annual installments, as may beet suit the donor also to aolicit dona-tion in city lot and other available assets.

(Parsons who do no. feet able or willing to contribute as much aa $20 can subscribe any amount under that, and either pay the caau or pay within thirty daye.) Thirdly Aa soon as we have made a thorough canvass of the city, we eXpectlto visit all the prominent points of toe stale, and aolicit aid. vjr board of trustee have already organised and entered fully into tha iworkj A committee, eonsisticg of tha following gentlemen, haa been appointed, to-wit Dr. Wm.

Blakeney, esq to make selection of a suitable location; for, the; college, and they are now canvassing the ci'y in search of the best place and the beat proposition that may be offered for it location. All portions of this city are interested, and can through these gentlemen make their proposals to the board.

Of course, we will reserve tha sight to make our selection with a view io benefit the whole city, and all donationsimust be made with that understanding. AVe are authorised to assure our citizens that we will try to select not -onlr tola moat advantageous poaition, but tha moatelegant and commanding ait ia Little Rqck, i The board hag instructed the agetto canvass tha city immediately and. fully, and be haa entered oa hia work. liense-forth we mean business. Get ready, gentlemen.

Don't detain Tae, have no lima 0 to waste in any on-necessary argument. We have no first-elasa female college la Arkansas. Little Rock ia a great and growing city. It is one of our great railroad centsre. It is the capital of Arkansas, and we hesitate not to say that Arkanaaa is sooa to be in the atwnt rank af the sUterheod of ale tee.

Herrtott, aHllilla vunr, Asaaealwattem ie Hwterlwaa aaivrtw ooaaeai. Yesterday morning' train from above brought startling news from the county of Pope. The troubles that existed there a short time since have broken out anew. Since tbe election everything teemed to be quiet in the coun'y, with the exception of a centest for the office of sherin be tween Mr. A.

8. Fowler, late of the Gov ernor's Guards, and the sheriff appointed in Dodson's pltc, after the letter's resignation before the late election, and Dod- son. The latter was commtsaionea ana Fowler was contesting for tbe office be fore the supreme court and; before the connly court of Pope, On Wedntsday the case was called at Dover.eminent counsel from this city being present in behalf of both part iea. The trial ended Wednea day, the court deciding It had no juris diction, when all tbe parties left for Little Rock, where they arrived yesterday, with the exception of Djdson. For the par ticulars of the killing of Ctpt Herriott and the shooting of Dodson, we refer to the following statements STATEMENT OF BOBIMSOH, OOCETT CLXKK Or POFB.

Mr. Robinson was amoeg the party who arrived yesterday. One reporter interviewed him and obtained tbe follow ing ata'ement On Wednesday the ounty court was tn aeasion, ana on tnat asy tne eoniesiea a 1 as. a. election case of Fowler vs.

D.don, for the office of sheriff of that county, was being tried. Ten minutes after the adjournment of the court, John Hale came Into the clerk's office, in the court bouse. At thia time the clerk was standing at his table, and when Hale came ia he passed-: by the clerk, walking up to the fireplace, where Georre R. Herriott wm standing. He commenced swearing and cursing Her riott, asking him to make apologies for something he had done when the militia were at Dover last summer.

Mr. Herriott refaxed to apologise, saying he had done nothing for which an apology was needed. Robinson, tbe clerk, seeing a fight was probably to take place, put all his books together, and placed them oat of the way, and started to go oat of the office. On arriving at the door he waa stopped by Perry West', who, after curs ing him, told him not to leave the office. The clerk then told West; he would not leave, that he would stay there.

At this time, he says, Hale had started to go on', palling and dragging Harriott with him West then took hold of the clerk, telling him to go along with the party, laying hi hand on his revolver, the handle of which the clerk saw in West' pocket. The whole party then passed out into the hall of tbe eourt-hoase, West and the clerk ia front and Hale and Herriott biinging np the rear. West and the clerk stopped in the hall and Hale proceeded, dragging Herriott with him toward the north door of the court-house, all thia time awearing and demanding that Herr'ott apologise. (The specific charge made against Her riott by Hale, for which he demaoded apologies, was that Herriott had, at some time, broken in the windows of his mother's honse When they got to the door, Hale pulled Harriott' Boat tache, beard and hair, also cuffed and hit him on the head with hi hands, and either knocked or purhed him down in the court-house door. At this time two shots were fired by some unknown person in the crowd outside, which instantly killed Herriott.

When the firing commenced West's attention was attracted from the clerk and he, improving the opportunity, darted oat of the house, and getting 00 his horse, left Dover. He went directly to Dod son's house, twelve mile southeast of Dover, end stayed there tilt dark. After Robin-eon' arrival, Dodson, Jadge Yenley, Judge Allen and Capt. Eggleetoa, of Rossellville, arrived from Dover, From there the whole party went Perry's station, the western ter miens of the Fort smith road, where they arrived about 13 o'clock Wednesday night, and the whole ptrty, with the exception or Judge Yen. ley, slept En Rankina house till about half put four, when they had breakfast.

After breakfast, Rabinson-and Wadling-ton went into the passenger car together, where they remained about twenty min-utei before tbe' crowd came in. The ltst maa who came oa board was Dodson, who got oa after the conductor had cried "all aboard and cam In at the rear door, stopping a moment on the platform to order break faat for Kiel Embry, a colored hack driver. Immediately after thi order the shot waa fired, and Dod son came staggering into the ear. What followed is told by Mr. S.

Fow-ler, who waa Dodaon'e opponent for tha office of sheriff vf- a. a FOWLEE'S 0TOET, Mr. Fowler waa aitting ia tha car when the shot waa fired.

After talking quite load with Ferguson, Underbill rushed on deck, where he was met by tha mate of boat and ordered back to 'work. He obeyed the order, and after working a short time his finger bled so profusely that ha wa compelled to attend to them. For thia purpose ha came 00 deck, and went to the att of the boat and commenced bandaging the wounded fingers.
