S( )UTHERN ENTERPRISE LUCIUS C. BRYAN, Editor and Proprietor. \ Terms, 64.00 a year in Advance. ) Letter from Bill Arp. Mr. John Happy—Sur. I want to write to you personally, about some things that weighs on me I look upon you as a friend, and I feel like droppin a few lines by way of un> burthenin my sorroful reflexions.— For the last few years you have travel - ed round right smart and must have made a heap of luminous observations I hear you are now livin in Nashville, where you can see all sides of every™ thing and read all the papers —where you cun study l’aradise lost without a boolc, and see the Devil and his an gels, without drawio on the imagina tion, and I tho’t may be you might as sist me in my troubled feelings. I have always, Mr. Happy endeavored to see the bright side of every pikter if it had any, but there is one or two sub jects about which 1 had mighty nigh gin it up. * 1 want you to tell me if you can, about what time are the black republi cans going to quit persecuting our peo ple!’ What are they so everlastin mad with us about? Old Skuball says its for treason that we've crone and done, and that 1 am the slowest perseverin man he ever seed not to have found it out. Now treason is a mighty bad thing, and any man fuund guilty of treason ought to he talked to by a preacher, rizht under a gallus, and then be al lowed co stand, on nothin a few hours by the clock. Shore enouf treason I mean. Treason where a man slips | around on the sly in the time of war, and takes sides agin his country. Jest as though for instance, I should have worked agin my suvrin State after she seceded, and had stole her powder or deserted heriu her time of peril, while she was def< ndin herself against the combined assaults of the world, the flesh and the devil, — 1 wouldn't have blamed nobody for hanging ne for the like, would you? l>ut Skewball bays we aint got no suvreen States — that the war have settled he question agin us on that pint, I dont think so my friend. L admit that we aint noth ing in pcrtikler now, but we did have suvreen States before the war, and the sword aint settled nor unsettled no great principles. There aint no trial of right or wrong by wager or battle now a days For mity nigh a hundred years this C( untry have been a big de* Dating society on these questions. From the time of Hamilton and -lef ferson down to 1861, the right of a State to dissolve her own partnership, have been argued by powerful minded men and there has been more for it th.<n agin it. More President's more Senators, more Statesmen more jud= ge.s more people : —Mnssyvhusetts a id Connectiont were fur it at one time, and hollered round and pawed amazin to „-it out. but they fuund out Barcas was willin and they didn't go Ibe lieve, however, that old Nutmeg did efty out abut two hours and a half. Well the South went out mity un willingly, 31 r. Happy, as you know. She bad been mity nigh kicked out for a long time, and there was a big party that wanted us to go out and stay out. livery body knows that we didn’t git along in peacso we concluded to do like Abraham and his brotherdn-law; to separate our households. What they wanted to keep us for I never could see yit. I woudn’t have a nig ger or a dog to stay round me that didn’t want to! —Some say they wanted us to strengthen ein.agin their ene mies in case of a furrin war. Does any man in his sences expect us to help ; the black republicans whip anybody? Have we got any worse enemies than they are?. They can t make us tight I reckon if we don’t want to. We’ve fout enoufand made nothin but glory, and we aint a goin to gine in another war to gratify other people. Dodds says that before he’d pull a trigger for Ttad Stevens, he’d have his eoul transmigrated to a bench leg'd fice, and bark at his daddys. mules 2000 years. J w nder if the experi ence of the last four years aint satisfi ed these fe lows that our boys are a dangerous set to be turned loose iu time of war. Wouldn't you think that as a matter of policy, they wou;d soft sodder us a little, and quit their slant derin. If wc do fight for em, there will be one condition certain. They might be put whar David put Uriah, and our boys mout consent to make a charge or two behind em at the pint of the bagnet. But 1 want you to tell me, John, if I am right about the history of this business. It aint a long story and I’ll tell it the way I see it. Old Pew rytan went off one day with some ships, and took a few beads and some juce harps and bought up a lot of captuied niggers from the Hottentots or some other tots, and stole a few more on the coast of Afriky aud brougUt them over and educated em to work in the field, and cut wood, and skoer bars and so forth, but not includin votin nor musterin no jury bisness nor so forth. Well, after while they found that the cold winds, and codfish airs of New England dident agree with the nig ger, and so they begun to slide em down South as last as possible. After they sold em and got the money, they jined the church and became sanctifi ed about slavery, sorter like the wo man that converted and then give all her novels away to her unconvertei sister. I\ ell, the Old Dominion and sieh of her sons as Washington, and Jefferson, and Madison, aod Randolf, bought em and worked em to satisfac tion, whereupon old Pew got jealous and began to preach agin it to break it down. The fakt is they wouldn’t work gals in their faktorics if it war. ent so profitable; for they are eonscb cntiously opposed to everything that aont put money in their pockets. Af ter while they went into the striped almanuk bisiness, inakin bloody picters of poor laserated nigger- gettin a hun • dred lashes for nothin, and mournin for their 6rst born becaug they were not. Then they started the stealin program and while we were tryin all the big courts and little courts to git back one sikly merlatter by the name of Dred Skott, they were stealen f rom five to fifty a day, and eoverin their kar kases all over with nigger larceny, and smuglin the Constitution into an abo lition mush They built a fence around the inst tu’ion as high as Ha man’s gallus, and hemmed it in, and laid seige to it jest like an army would besiege a city to starve out the inhabt itants. They kept peggin at us until we got mad —enouf mad—and we re solved to cut 1 mse from them and pad dla < ur own canoe. . Now all this time we had some good friends among em —some who swore we were imposed upon, and said we had good cause to resolve the partner ship. They sed that if we did secede and the abolitionists made war upon us, they would stand by us and throw their lives and their fortunes and their sakred honor right in their breach, and the first fight would be over their dead bodies and so forth and so on. My memory is bad, hut I remember that some of em were named James Buchatnan, and Dan Dikinson, and John Cocran, and Logan, and Cushing and Butler, surnamed the Beast and McLernard, and Stephen A. Doug lass, who got his commission about the time he died, and carrried it with him to parts unknown, and lastly, a man by the name of Andy Johnson, who 1 suppose are some distant rela tion to the President of the United States of Ameriky. But a man aint responsible for the bad conduct of his relations, and 1 dont throw it up to nobody. I suppose that our President are doin the best he can, Mr. Ethe ridge oughtent to be rakcti up his rec orb. Well, the war come on, and show enuff Logan, and Cushing, and Mel er nard and Butler and Company bu.z T around awhile like bumblebees, to! thev were brought up and then they lit over on the oi her side. They got their reward and they were welcome to it so far as I am concerned. How is it now Mr. Happy? They conquered us by the sword, but they havent convinced us of nothin much that I know of. All is lost save honor, and that they cant steal from us nor tarnish. If they had held out the hand of fellowship, we would have made friends and buried the h; tchet. But the very mini* they whipped us, they begun to holler tre ismi from one end of the coun try to the other, just like they had made a bran new discovery. It seemed to strike em all a sudden, like an Xpost fak to law, and they wanted to gc into a general hangin bisincss. and keep it up as long as they could find, rope and timber. I . . Now- the ideal ©f several millions es Amerikan freemeM being guilty of treason at qnce! The idea of applying such a crime to eleven'great suvreen States, which met in solemn convention and in the light of day dissolved a Union they had created, and which had been a disunion for twenty years ! The idea of applviu treason to the Old Dominion, the mother of States and of Washington, and Jefferson and Madteon and Marshal and Patrick Henry, anti all the Lees, and who gavo away all the terri. tory in the Northwest for nuthinl Is she to be scandilized by these new light Chris tians, who are compounded from all the scum of all creation, and think that Paul and Peter and Revelations, have been for two thousand years makin special arrange ments for receivin their sanctified souls in Paradise. Treason the dikens! Where's your dictionary ? Where s Dan’l Webster ! Where’s the history of the Amerikiu revo lution * No it aint treeson nor seeson —but its de vilish infernal inhuman hate. What do they ke o p Mr. Davis in jail for ? I hear sum say that it aint Mr. Johnson's vol, untary Joins, but the tremendous pres sure of surrounding circumstances. Dum the circumstances. Aint Mr. Davis a great and good man 1 If Andy Johnson aint an infidel, would'nt he swap chnnees for hea ven with him and give all his earthly estate fto boot. If Mr. Davis's honor and integs rity, and patriotism, and true courage, were weighed in a balance against Sum. ner's and Stevens’, and all his enemies, wouldn’t he outweigh em all ? Wont his conduct in Mexico and in the late war, and his nobility of character live long and grow bright in his history, while the mem ory of the howns that are bayin him ii his dungeon, will sink in oblivion ? I think so—thars what I say, and I’ll bet on it, and Charles C’Connor and all the women in the country will go my halves. But there aint no particular point in all this, Mr Happy. Its only my ! opinion, that's all. 1 may be a tarnal | fool, and I sometimes feel like 1 am a fool about everything and dont know , nothin. I’m tryin my best, however, to take things jest as I find em, and my principal bisiness for the last two manths hav been weanin niggera to make em feel free. 1 put em all out to take care of themselves, but they keep eurnin back to me, and it keeps me 1 workin day and Digbt to provide for em. I’ve been willin along time for em to he free it they could take care of themselvas, and I dont kauw what Thad Stephens is a fussin about, unless f e is iust mad because our boys burnt his iron works. If that’s all, we can plead the ruins of various similar es tablishments in these regions, and get a judgment agin him. But lam about through, Mr Hap py, with whal I had to say. Only this—if there ever was an afflicted people that needed friends, its us. If we've got any friends anywhere, I want em to show their hands aud stand by us in our trouble. I feel like reach in out to the five points of the kom pass in search of sympathy, and if there is an honest statesman or a brave sol ; dier north of the line who loves his fellow-uien, let him open his heart and meet us on half way ground. We aint afeerd of beast or varmint —of devils or demons —or Stephens or Sum. ner —-but we are a warm-lie irted and forgivin people and love our friends. Aint we and dont we ? Yours evcrlastinly, Bill Arp. P. S.—ls Brownlow dead yet ? I'm writin his obituary, and thought 1 , wood like for the sad event to come off as soen as possible. I wish you would send me a list of your members who voted for that resolution declarin Gen. Lee and Davis infamous. Wo arc gettin up a bill in the Georgy Legis later decl&riu them infamous vrho vo ted for the resolution. Fight tko devil with fire is mv motto. B. A. U. M. INTFKNAI.
