Facts ns Interest to tux SoaTUZRR lUauiku
Pi:sue.—The publication of TkeNew Eclectic was
commenced iu January 1868, with a view of
furnishing for the Smith a monthly Magazine, in
which would l>u preeented in a cheap and popu
lar form, the must valuable article of all the
Quarterly, Monthly and Weekly publications of
the world. The Ulckmond Eclectic, n work of a
similar character, which was favorably known
throughout tbu South, was brought out, tho office
removed to Baltimore, where there are larger
facilities fur the purpose, and nutneroui improve
ments were introduced, so that now tiro Publish
ns feel assured that in every respect, their pub
lientii-ii is,the best of its class in the country.
—« Maving spared no expense or trouble in their
efforts to pi esse, they had confidently hoped that
Tke New Ecleetlc would meet with very sxten
sivo favor'froai the South. It haa nuw been be
fore the public for aix mouths, and tlnough the
Press lias been uuamimou* in Ua praise, knd the
most prominent literary gentlemen iu the South
have offered their congratulation*, a recent trip
of a Special Agent through the South has devet
oped the fact that for every copy of 'J%e Nen
Eclectic circulation In the South, there are at
least fifty copies of Northern magazines, and
theae too of those which are must offensive and
insulting in their tone toward the South.
These facts are offered for wh»t they ore
worth. It is mersly asked, is the South willing
(for though so poor, she is ahlu, since she liberal
ly patronizes Northern Publications,) to support
a magazine in foil sympathy with her people—
published by .Southerners, for Southerners, and
Id a city (hat ha* lavished her best blood and
trsasureof Southern rights! It is not outlie
strength of her sympathy alone that the patron
age of the South is solicited; but the publisher
feel assured that the intrinsic merits of tlicif
publication are not iuforior, iu any respect, to
those of journals emanating from Northcn sour
ces. They aak all to examino for themselves.—
A specimen number will be sent to any address
on tbe receipt of 88 cents The subscription
price of the Magazine te $4,00 per annum. Each
monthly part contains 128 pp. beautifully print
ed and prepared for binding, philosophy,
Fiction, Poetry, Narrative, Biography, Fun. Art,
etc, agreeably intermingled. Very liberal in
ducements to new eubeoribeia, clubs, agents can

How a Youxo Law vex Kiu.ro two Brans
stub oms Stubs. —Some years ago, in a certain
town in this State, which shall be nameless, a
yonug attorney, with moie wit than money
bought a pair of buotairom a merchant, for which
he was charged with a balance of one dollar and
ahalf, on the boots. Sometime after hpremoved
to a neighboring village, forgetting all about the
debt, and sent out a lot of professional cards, in
whicb ha stated that he would give practical at
tention to the collection of claims. In a few
days came a saucy letter from one of the shoo
firm, iu which he was requested to collect and
forward tbe balance due lor the boots. The at
toruey felt 1 picked up” al first, but quickly ralli
ed and sent the following highly professional an
swer:
Jfeeere ■ ....: Gentlemen.— Your favor of
——date, inclosing claim on was duly
received end the debt collected promptly. 1
have placed one dollar and fifty rents to your
credit, which leaves a balance of three dollars
and fifty cents dba me on uiy collvotion
fax. Yon will pleass remit. I will take plea
tor* in attending to any other business you will
may have in my profession.
When the attorney’s letter came to the shoe
shop the disciples of 8t- Crispin saw that they
were completely sold, but whether they have
ever sent their old customer another debt to col
lect w* have not heard. The lawyer is sorry
that hs ever paid a cent on the boots, as he
might just easily have served the whole price.—

Rather unexpected was the reply of the ur

The President * Veto-
Wa«hikoton, J une 20, p. m.—ln his veto the
President says that an approval of this bill would
be an admw.ion that the acts for tbe more effici
ently governing the rebel States, and the acts
supplementary thereto were projierly and con
aiuuiioiia!. Whereas the President’s opinion is
not only unchanged in this respect, but rather
stengtbeoed by the result attending their execu
tion. If Arkansas is not a State, this bill don’t
admit her. If she is a State, no legislation is ne
cessary to her representation In Congress. Each
Home is, under the C'ousiitution. the ju-*i of
the election returns, and the qualifiicatiori of its
own members, and that nothing is necessary to
rest tire Arkansas, but the decision by each House
of tlie eligibility of those presenting credentials.
Tliis is the plain and simple plab of the Consti
tution, had it been adopted in ’66 instead of Leg
islation of doubtful constitutionality, and, there
fore, unwise and dangerous, restoration would
long since have been accomplished.
'I he Piesidcnt again recommends the adoption
of the constitutional plan. 'I he temis proposed
are scarcely application to a Territory —certain
ly not to a State which has occupied a place in
the Union over a quarter of a century.
The President is unable to find authority for
the conditions of the bill in tho Federal Constitu
tion.
_Tlie elective franchise is reserved by the Con
stitution to the States themselves. This Bill
fails to provide how Artfmsas shall signify her
acceptance of the fundamental conditions, nor
does it prescribe penalties for the ratilic rion.—
It is seriously questioned whether the Constitn
thru tins been ratified according to the law as
sumed to he in force its adoption by the rirkan
sas Constitution. Restricted franchi-c on its rat
ification by tests is unknown in the ReCuu
struction sets—among them acceptance of politi
cal and civil rights of all men. It is well known
that a large portion, if not a large majority, of
the electors don’t accept this tesl, and if applied
to voters North, there is reason to believe that
ratliei many of them would remain away from
the polls than comply with its degrading condi
tion*.
The President concludes : “Should the people
of Arkansas, therefore, desiring to regulate the
elective franchise so as to make it conform to
the Constitutions of the North and West, modify
the provisions referred to in the fundamental
condition, what is to bo, the consequence) it is
intended that a denial of representation shall
follow ! and if so, may We not dread, at some fu
tore day a recurrence of the troubles which have
so long agitated the country I Would it not be
tlie part of wisdom to take for your guide the
Federal Constitution rather then resort to mea
sures which, looking only to the picsent, nisy in
a few years, renew, iu a aggravated from, the
strife and bitterness caused by legislation which
has proved to be iil-Umened and unfortuuate I"

in which the Constitution is to be put upon trial
in opposition to a cousnliduted government, with
