THE i'UUHI TO AKhA^NiM
Our colored population will not relish
without fears, the prospect of paradisaical
repose in the beautiful country of Arkan
sas. It seems that the elements of discord
sre there also, and that the blocks arc led
hy Fitzpatrick (not the private Irish gen
tleman) uud other desperate diameters
against their white fellow-citizens.
From recent accounts It seems that tho
object of these leaders is lo make the
country a black man's country, exclusive
ly, as to rights and immunities.
If this is the purpose of immigration,
the sooner it is known the better, for then,
measures could he taken to ship the ad
venturers off to Liberia ot once, where
they could exert their woDdrous energies
on the ravages of their own blood and
color.
But to go to Arkauflas to revenge their
feelings upon Innocent, industrious white
citizens and settlers, is qulto another mat
ter, and calls for a little attention.
Mr. Jeff Long, desires hit fellow citizens
•f color—to go to Arkansas, on the ground
that there they have tlicir rights. But we
see that those conceded and established
rights lead them to perpetrato diabolical
wrongs upon their neighbors, and have
brought on the bloody eontlict of races
Arkansas is the dark field of the blood of
races!
The leaders of the African freedmuu
and citizens are making it so.
The result will be no more doubtful
there than In Georgia, and must call forth
tho deepest regret from all lovers of law
and order.
Weopiue that the colored people of
Georgia will not go to Arkansas, under
any circumstances. Why should they? They
do not desire to form a dynasty ol color,
to please a few fanatical leaders ! They
are not disposed to turbulence and riot!
They are peaceable enough except
when excited and led astray by t'.ie In
cendiary and the incorrupt. To go to Ar
kansas Is to go to war and to death, for
that is tho purpose in the miuds of lead
ers To slay In Georgia is to Imre panes
nt home, prosperity in the field, protection
of all rights, and the blessings of educa
tion and good Government!
A difference! t'ertniuly. Ami wliul
does it cost ? Let colored men consider.
It cuts co-opcralion with white citizens ;
it cuts the exhibition of a disposition to do
right am', maintain order, law and peace.
That is all.
Georgia will become ns bloody as Ark
ansas when tho colored people break from
these good principles, when they allow
themselves to be led astray bv evil and
designing spirits

PE*CK.
Jacksonville, Fla, Oct. 17, 1372.
My dear (smith :— A r,upper nt Jessup
may not be eerved as elegantly as at Del
monico’s, but It will servo the same pur
pose and accommodate itself to year Ivan
purie.
Moonlight on the lake is, If we may be
lieve the poets, alwnya inspiring, but moon
light on the Atlantic uud Gulf Railroad is
a different affair.
In this particular instance the cars were
crowded, and two things besides, rendered
it more then ordinarily disagreeable,
namely whisky and feet.
Understand me, Ifyou please,whisky and
tact spoiled the moonlight ride, from Jes
sup to Jacksonville, for this poor acribe!
1 do not know the nationality of the feet.
This Is a branch of science which I litvc
sadly neglected as a study. I leave it lo
our Datnlus, Tindalls, Spencers, and the
sagaciouss philosopher of the Savannah
News—this question of the relative merit
of feet in a crowded car.
There may be larger feet thau those
which turned themselves übout on that
eventful night, but itronger cannot be
found, I am willing to make affidavit.
DeoJorlzers were freely used by a num
ber of dalicate looking ladies—in the shape
of German cologne, salts, oppoponax, etc.,
etc., but bless your defections, my dear
sir, tbe feet went through them all like an
essential oil.
And we Jogged along.
There wore three wise men on tho truin.
They sat near me, and I was permitted to
hear part of their conversation.
They were discussing the Stale of Geor
gia from a local standing point.
l’urty of the first part, was portly, pleas
ant, and pompous. Party of the second
pnrt was tall, talented, and testy. Party
ot the third pnrt, was a shabby genteel,
Miss Nancy sort of genius.
lie knew all the great men of the past
forty years, and spoke of them with
unctuous familiarity. He called Calhoun,
“Old Calvcina Jack,” and Webster—
•• Ban,” and Henry Clay—" There liarry,”
while Itohert V. Hnyne. came in tor nu
extra share of petting, and was frequently
honored with this great man, mentioned
under the tender toubrequet of “Bear Old
Bob," by which I inferred that the Shabby
Genteel gent, wsb a South Carolinian and
hy profession.
Georgia, In this retuarkablo person, had
never had any statesmen, aud never will
have any. "Bob ” Toombs was an "edu
cated fool!” "Aleck ” Stephens was a
“ninny," while "Ben” Hill, was a "snap
pish cur—a snappish cur, sir, hy .” I
ventured a mild remark to the effect that
1 ttieught him capable also, of biting,
which tho Shabby Genteel gentleman,
from South Carolina, did not deign to no
tice. lie discerned probably that I was
a Georgia cracker, nnd was disposed to
defend my native bcath—but no matter, —
lie did not recognize me any more than he
respected Georgia statesmen.
1 became all the more determined to
force the battle, for my dear Bmitb, we
| have the spirit of a true Georgian in
I this particular—namely liavo your say If
you die for it.
I succeeded.admirably, and in the man-
I uer following
"Your memory, my dear Sir" (address
-1 ing shabby genteel gent "must be a great
comfort to you."
"Did you make n remark 1" was bis
quick retort ?
"Only a tentative observation," was
my reply. "In reference to the wealth of
your memory."
"All that's left me egad—siuce the waw,
Sir,—all that's left me!'' was the impas
sioned and unfamiliar utterance of Mr.
| Shabby Genteel!
"May I ask why you have formed so
unfavorable opinions of our (Georgia) po
litical leaders and statesmen v
"Georgia has no statesmen—never bad ;
for the matter of that"—said the great
man "Your Ben Hill's, Hob Toombs, and
Aleck Stephenses, are only political mon
key-jacks, performing on the points of
public opinion for tlio pleasure of w hoev
er will throw a penny in the hat, that
never fails to go. round."
•• 1 thiuk your observation does a great
injustice to these gentlemen," 1 responded
with warmth.
" 11a, hs. ha 1 You are a young man, sir.
and rather vorduut, I must say. 1 say
those men arcmerc monkey-Jacks.and are
set on wires. Your State never had auy
genuine minds ; you always looked to
Carolina—egad— to Carolina, sir. There
was Jack Calhoun and Bob Bayne—they
carried Georgia iu their vest pockets, and
when they took snuff jour people took to
sneezing "
•• May I ask you, wliat shall become ot i
us iu the future, siueo South Carolina
seems to have sold out to negro statesman
ship ? The spirit of the late great states
men of j’our State seems not to have fallen
on any of their sons ?"
“There, you are mistaken," said Shabby
Genteel. " Smith Carolina, sir, is the soil
of statesmen, she produces them spouts
neously, and the spirit of old Jack still :
lives from 'the mountains to the seaboard,'
and will assert itself when the time
comes.”
Having set the gentlemeu to talking,
there was no end to his jargon.
His abuse ot Georgia was wholesome,
while his familiarity with all the great
men of the past, commended him to my !
distinguished consideration. I felt so much
interest in him that 1 resolved to ascertain
his distinguished name, aid present occu
pation.
This I did. in a way not to he comnien- j
ted upon—it was a way that was dark 1
found that he was a I'. S Revenue offl
cer, whose name is not the symonyw of
honor, truth, and patriotism.
Having sold his country, he sold liiia
self, charged more than was thought to be I
equivalent, and was caught taking the
price !
When vre separated, I cooly inquired,
when he should return to !
Mr. Shabby Genteel, eyed me for a mo
ment and doubtless tuking me for a detec
tive i fflcer.flew my presence and I saw him
no more. W. W. H.

The Death-Bed of Mrs. Parton.
From the New York Bun.]
Mrs Parton has been afflicted for many
years with inflammatory rheumatism. She
has been able to ride about, however, and
walk in her garden—she was an ardent
admirer of flowers—until this fall. She
passed last summer at her villa in New
port. Iler right arm was so affected as to
he powerless, and she Ims not left her room
since her return to the city. She was
forced to sit in an easy chair, her arm be
ing supported hy a frumo. To lie down
caused intensed pain and u difficulty in
breathing, in this chair, where she hag
sal for two months.she dicd.surrounded by
loving friends, and her eyes resting on the
beautiful flowers which were her comfort
in life.
She was perfectly conscious to tho
last moment, and sent messages of her love
to distance friends. A short time ago she
told her husband that she was shocked
when she saw stranger* viewing the re
mains of the late Alice Carey in Dr.
Decni's church, and one of her last requests
wns, "Let no stranger look upon my face,”
whispered as the breath of lifa was pass
ing from her. Slio hud always entertained
u strong aversion to ostentatious funerals,
and her wishes in this respect will be ful
filled to the letter by her friends.
Karly on Thursday she knew her end
was approaching. At 3 o'clock in the af
ternoon she called her family around the
arm chair in which she expired—for her
sufferings prevented her from resting on a
bed. Badly did every member respond to
Hie summons. In the little circle were
Dr. Parton. Miss Kldridge, tho dying lady's
daughter, her two sisters. Mis* Julia Willis
and Mrs Humstead, and a little grandchild.
Dr Sturges, her physician, came in at that
moment and joined tho group, The
authoress, whoso life was rapidly ebbing,
culled each to her side and said a few
words of admonition till she had reached
the last. When her little grandchild came
to her she directed Dr. Parton to send lier
cnrly to bed and if her death occurred that
uiglil, not to tell tbe child till to morrow.
Boon after this sad scene. Dr. Sturges
stepped forward and fait her pulse. The
authoress fixed her gaze upon him and ask
ed firmly.
“ Doctor, am I dying ?”
The Doctor answered " Yes."
Iter pulse had almost gone, and she pre
sented uunil dnknblu truces of her appi cach
ing demise ; but the announcement of the
physician made no impression upon her.
At half past (i o'clock those around her no
ticed that she was unusually still. They
felt her pulse , it had stopped. She had
just closed her eyes as if to sleep, A mir
ror was placed to her lips, but its contin
ued brightness revealed the fact that she
had breathed her lust.
