THK SMT V|CTII. While the eyes of the nation are' gazing uimn the nail fate of Louie lana, Grant and bin carpet-baggers are fix ing up even a deadlier scheme against Arkansas. Kcarcely had the Commit tee, to Investigate Arkansas affairs, made their report, declaring that the State of Arkansas “has been os peotw ful, since the new Government was inaugurated, as it has ever been,’’and denying the right of the Federal Gov ernment to interfere with t lie govern ment established by a State, than Grant sends to Congress a special message, directly at variance with the tone and temper of the report of the Committee. The aiiologists assert that the message was prepared under the influence of the carpet-baggers of Arkansas, and dictated by “landau let” Williams, Our renders will recollect that sev eral months since Arkansas was in a state of scml-war, owing to the fact that two of her citizens claimed the Gubernatorial chair. Grant did not definitely interfere, but upon the ap pointment of au Investigating Com mittee by Congress, Brooks yielded the State to his adversary. This left the whole matter in the hands of the lieople, and- they determined to de cide who was regularly elected, and almost unanimously the people called a Constitutional Convention, and the members to the same wore regularly elected, and they made for their State a Constitution. During all this time, the Administration remained quiet, and tlie Investigating Committee re portosabovo mentioned. Now,Grant proposes to undo the ent ire work, and take upon himself to decide between the two contestants, provided Con gress will not do it, and starts with the assertion that Brooks was elected. His message deliberately proposes to remand the State to tho chaos and confusion that existed in her borders previous to this Convention, and to utterly disregard tho wish of tho en tire lieople. He gives Congress to un derstand that if It does not net promptly, and to suit him, he will take the matter in his own hands and carry out his views to suit himself and “UuidaiUet." Grant knows such a policy is not In the least conducive to i>eace and good order; and sue.h conduct on Id- part only serves to strengthen the opinion of tlie South, that he means to do all in liis power to keep the South in an unsettled condition, productive of an archy and riot. We consider this effort on his part as more tyrannical than the policy pursued towards Louisiana. We do not know whether Grant will carry out his threat, hut there is this thing certain, he Ims a number of unprinci pled men with him, who will wink at any oppression lie proposes for us. Fbom tlie following we learn that at last somebody lias felt sorry for doing wrong. Tho sword of Gen. Iverson has boon returned to him by a widow whoso better instincts would not allow hor to keep what her hus band took Irom an old man. The sword Gen. Iverson prizes ns having lieen given him by the citizens of tills city before the war: Tlie willow of the Inti' Commander Cush ing sent by express to Alfred Iverson, of Georgia, to-day, a sword which had been presented by the citizens of Columbus to that gentleman previous to the war, but which had lusen raptured by Cushing In i me of liis raids. One of our exchanges says: “Let justice be done. Mr. Sloan, the Re pultcan candidate from the Savannah District, in casting his own vote against the civil rights bill, infornn'd the House of Representatives, by au thority, that Mr. Freeman, if present, would also vote against the bill. We quote from the Congressional R<:- cord.” But why was not Sir. Freeman not “present!” That’s wliat we would like to know. Recently a negro was lynched at Urbaua, Ohio, for rape. Tiiose en gaged in the lynching only gave him time to say liis prayers. If this had been done in the South, it would have been called a conspiracy to deprive a colored man of his liberty, and an act of open rebellion, and we would have been denounced as cut-throats and red-hauded murderers. The Detroit Free Press wants to know it this couutry is composed of Phil Sheridan and his [spurs, or is it made up of real estate, lakes, rivers, and now and then an unassuming citizen? An important doeision was recently rendered by the Supreme Court of Alabama, viz: that the act requiring -jurors to bo selected from the list of registered voters, does uot repeal that section of the code which allows a juror in a criminal ease to be chal lenged because he is not a house holder or free-holi ter. ” Judge Briek ell dissented. A Washington Jfsjiatch assertsthat Pinchbeck has resorted to the unu sual means of addressing a memorial to and distributing with his own hands copies of it among Senators, urging them to take speedy action on his credentials as Senator from Lou isiana, and saying his good name and tlie interests of that State suffer by the delay. Peanuts are rapidly coining to the ■front as an article of trade. Ten years ago the crop did not amount to more than 160,000 bushels. Last year 2,000,000 bushels were raised, valued at $3,000,000. Philadelphia alone takes 800,000 bushels of peanuts. A FKIEXM.Y LKTTF.It. Editor Times: We, If you will til- * low us to use the royal pronoun, unite ! to thank you for your calm hud dig- I nlfled defense of Southern ohnrtteter jin a recent issue of your paper. A j crisis seems to be approaching in our I political history us u tuition, tlie re sult of which no human foresight can fathom. Anarelty on the one hand, : and the smouldering spirit of freo ildm ou tlie other, are struggling tor the ascendency. The South, always foremost in tier vindication of consti tutional restriction and in her loyalty to the constitutional obligation, is tlie victim. But her martyrdom is not without avail. Ogden’s charge upon tlie Metropolitan Guard woke tho American people from an uputhy as fatul to political us tlie slumbers of the frozen man to physical life. The promptness with which the blow was struck, tlie antagonism it displayed, the spirit it exercised, and the mad whirl iuto which it lias driven the ad herents of tyranny, have marked it in the calendar of our history us u mem orable day. From it we have set out. on anew era of true Republican life, or on that easy road to follow the to tal destruction of Republican institu tions. This is no mere lesthotienl in dulgence; it lives us a stubborn fact, little noticed, it may be now, but of sufficient magnitude to show that tlie Southern jieoplo tire not butchers and assassins; that from her soil, luxuri ant os her cotton weed, a crop of gi ants may yet spring. The dragon’s teeth have been already sown by the reckless hand of fanaticism and hate. There arc comparatively very few Southern people who have been led into the error of su]qiosiug t hat eilher the pulpit, the politicians or the press of the North, have any kindly feel ing towards us, or that they desire our prosperity. Many of the emissa ries sent here since the war; many, even, who have come of their own uo cord; and others, who left their coun try for their country’s good, have stu diously striven to make us believe this fact. Some have whined to us in nasal and patronizing tones their be lief in the restoration of harmony and brotherly love; they have talked to us hugely of helping to build up waste places, and deplored the tyranny and injustice of the Government that has sought to oppress and destroy us. And yet those very men, with some single selfish aim in view, animated, as is the Northern mind, by an invet erate and increasing hostility, have not failed also to remind us that our punishment is that merited by disloy- ’ al subjects, and that wo can never at- i tain tlie position of our hopes until i we cease to bo Ignorant, and vile, and cowardly, and rebellious, and follow the illustrious example of that icy clime, where morality began in burn ing old women for witches, and has been advancing through its succes sive steps of perfection until it has nursed free love into a ripe woman hdod, nnd firmly established, even in Boston, its asylums for the wholesale commission of infanticide. To the true Southern mail who loves his sec tion for tlie untarnished honor of its manhood and the virtue of its women, tho comparison, to which we are so often of late subjected, is only amus ing. It should teach us all this fact, however, that beoauso a man hap pens to belong to the side of tlie op pressors, he Impiiens also to have imbibed the conviction that, as we ore poor, overpowered and oppressed, and because he belongs to that groat section which has made us i>oor and has overpowered and oppressed us, he is at liberty to think, speak and write about us as he pleases; just as Mtessi, King of Uganda, when visited by Col. Long, the agent of the Egyp tian Government, had the heads of a hundred human beings decapitated because lie wished to honor Col. Long, and because those human be ings were in his power. Our North ern brother thinks he lienors himself and does us great good when he points out our concealed pistols, our fre quent homicides, our general lock of information and refinement, and bids us look txi tin* region from whence he came, for the correction of these dan gerous symptoms. It was Sir Walter Scott, we believe, who remarked that ft man who wrote at alt, was sure to write most of that particular thing to which he either was or wished him self addicted. The hypothesis, if cor rect, lliuy tteeount for the venom of some of our Northern counsellors. There is one thing lacking, how ever, and it is a great desideratum. Tlie theory may be good enough, but the example is nowhere seen. Some men, indeed, who preach to others, themselves become castaways. Wo heard once of a temperance lecturer who carried with him his drunken brother to enforce and illus trate liis theory. How profitable it would be, if those who pretend to teach us morality, would exhibit to us a good specimen for our imitation. No doubt some free love institution, or infanticide asylum, or John Brown club, would furnish them gratis. It is fair, at least, to presume that char ity like theirs would justify tho ex penditure, if satisfied of our need of illustration. While penning these lines the in formation readies us of the jiassage of the Civil Rights bill by the House. You conclude your comments upon this foolish piece of legislation with the'remark that it will never prove a success in the South. If we under stand each other, we are agreed. But the success you speak of, is not the success hoped for by those who would blot with it the national statute book. The Civil Rights bill is the last desperate venture of that faction of the Radical party which lias determined to control the Government or destroy it. The fail ure to pass it at the last session of Congress shows that it was not then either a political principle or n party necessity, but that it was simply an outgrowth from the foetid liot-bed of Radical hate. They have been hold-j 1 ing it, like tlie sword of Damocles, j above the head of tlie helpless South to remind it of rebellion and force it inlo loyalty. Not now u political principle, it has become a party nc ; eesslty; for they have been hulked in ! every other, of their many efforts, to betray the South Into some overt net lof so-called treason. Even the Exec utive power, once _oppqsetl to il as j impolitic., is supposed now to have I promised aequieseenoe and to have j urged its adoption. I The South, however, will have learned little from the ordeal t hrough which it has passed, if this effort to seduce It into error is at ail success ful. The plot is too absurd ; die dramatis persnntr are too well known; and what is seriously intended us a drama of blood, will resolve itself iuto a broad and contemptible farce. From the Mosaic law, with its unamended decalogue, down to the tattered arid threadbare Constitution of American t'r< dairp, j this is the first serious effort, made , by law-makers, human or divine, to regulate the social relations by leg islative enactment. It. may serve tho purpose, however, of teaching us more accurately man’s capacity for self-government. Like the transit of I Venus to the astronomer, it may dis : cover to the American statesman, his real distance from the source of light and beat, and our chances of contin ued existence as a freed people. But we greatly mistake If it meets the specific end for which it is enacted. Strang as the Imlucenn jits are to evade' its intended complications, a stronger barrier still exists in those natural laws, which override tho acts of human legislation with an instinct more sensitive than that by which animal life shuns the danger that would destroy it. It will live out Its little day of sickly, fevered life, and die “unknelled, tin coffined and unmounted.” It was Tom Fnine, if we mistake j not, who wrote: “That Government, like dress, is the badge of lost inno cence, and the palaces of Kings are built upon tlie ruins of tlie bowers of Paradise.” And the question will re cur in tlie midst of all that is now dis turbing t,li (forernineiit," If our nudity is not shocking, our bowers sadly ruined and kingly palaces lay ing deep and brood foundations upon Yankee Doodle soil? The question, however, does not address itself to the South, for she stands a dumb and uncomplaining victim in tlie midst of Constitutional demolition, every w >rd that she lias uttered branded as re bellion, and every deed she attempts J misconstrued into treason. With those, then, who assert p -culiar loy alty to the Government, as created, and whose numerical superiority lias given them the power, rests tlie solu tion of the question. If revolutions never go backward and present indi cations point tlie course of ours. Mad ame Roland may not live in history as the solitary victim who complain ed, that much crime was done trt the name of liberty. "Nous Vkiuions.” Patent Rrir.Koifi Ttatfrr. A patent railroad ticket has been placed on sale by the Baltimore and Ohio llail t'oad Company between Baltimore and Washington, and vice versa, : which is a perfect cheek on the trade of ticket scalping. Tho merit of the ticket is that it cannot be used twice. It is an ordinary coupon form, the contract portion merely showing the point of departure. The portion re tained by the passenger is an audi tor’s cheek only, which shows desti nation from point of departure. Either coupon detached when pre sented is worthless. It affords to the conductor a much desired protection, and lie only renders himself liable to suspicion when lie fails to obey posi tive instructions to detach his portion on liis first round, mid take up tie auditor’s cheek on final round. It is the invention of Mr. Wm. T. Theiin, auditor of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company, and no doubt will come into general use, as the same principle can be applied to all coupon tickets of connecting lines, lay-over cheeks and round trip tick ets. Mi mi in Yi.ir.Hiss. The movement to secure pensions for tils voter,ms of tin Mexican war is creating much in terest.
