Letter from Arkannaa

We have long letter from an intelligent
gentleman In Arkansas, urging that Nj. Lin.
coin publish his views upon the questions now
agitating the country, in advance Of his Inaa,-
gurM Message. The writer says the most de-
plorab1s ignorance exists among the Southern
people EelatiFc to the principles Of the Repub-
Ican party, aud TINT the politicians in those
states have indamed the inasscs By the gross
est and most ca1uminous misrepresentation
Of the opinions Of Mr.. Lincoln and those Win
'have elected him. We give tue concluding
portion Of the letter:
It should not satisfy Mr.. Lincoln or his
friends that he has thousand times in his
speeches declared his views and sentiments,
and that hundreds Of papers have published
them. We all know TINT not one of these
papers or an extract Of his speeches {cxccpt
In garbled forms) has over been published or
permitted to circulate In the South. The only
e1t1aet @ That hare ever seen correctly quoted
aud circulated In this State WAS the one uscd
by Nj. Benjamin in bis speech In the United
statcs Senate agatnst Douglas (as used By Mr.
Lincoln In his debate With Douelas} and thai
brief quotation did Mr.. Lincoln 50 much good
In the South, that the speech Of Benjamin. had
to be suppressed In many parts Of the State.
The Republican platform, I venture to say,
has not bccn seen by one person In a Thousand
IN the South, md at the same time represented
by the disuuioni5ts rs the embodiment of ere
Tthing shhofrcnt In despotic fanaticism, H.
centiousness, md crime. You would hardly
believe, ii stated the half that has been said
Of Mr. Lincoln, and believed BY the masses.
They have been taught that Lincoln intends 10
use every means to instlgate revolt among the
slaves; that the Republicans arc orgaaizcd
into military companies, and intend to mark
a9aias5 fAs South xsder lie lsodera1ip Of Gid
dtn3s, S.edrd d Co., to cut 1ae Mrodt Of e1x7u
white man, distribute The srhsk females among thr
'.egToes, and TO carry e6 each man for hi.se| an
ebony beauty to ornament and grace his home
In the North that Northern white men are
hue, than by their pale-faeed beauties ut home,
It docs not matter. nor hare NC time to In
qulre, by what means these notions hare been
spread It is sufficient to know that thousands
Of our countrymen Aones&fy bt1tetx such things
to be true, {saying tho doubts now beginning.
TO work upon their mindsA and that man is no
small bcnefactor to his country who, IN INV
degree, unaecalvcs and calms the minds Of his
conntrymen,
I an axarc that a manifesto from Mr. Lin
coin would be an unusual procedure. but wc
must recollect that we aro In mn unusual posi-
ton, such an one as VIC hayc ucrez occupied
oeiore. Should Ar: Lincoln delay pubiica-
don OF his yieWs until the inaugural. ho will
loss, In my opinion, much valuable tine. The
delay mikes unionloving men despondent.
while the tools Of the present Administration
boast that = he dare not publish his views, and
that no declaration will Be made until he shall
have the army and navy at his command to
force htS views down the thtoats Of the South.
and crush them into submission to his dcspot-
ic rnle."

Let Louisiana Look Out for her Sugar.
\ compiled statement Of Mr. F. Chasnpouier
Of the sugar crop Of Louisiana, shows "that
ISIS inclusive, 4 period Of twenty-five years,
was !, ,o14, 100 hogsheads, valued ut $24S, ,139,
10; mud that Of this quantity the Atlantic
ports took 1.4s5, ,tl1 hogsheads, and the West
vrn States o,314 Ash hoS Ssleads.''
ltshould be remembered that the sugar crop
Of Louisiana is fally projected by duty on
foreign sugars Of twcnty-four per cent, aud
should she scccle her great crop would be,
brought into direct competition with the sugar
rrop Of the West India islands, with which she
has never been able to compete without such
protection. Under such circumstances, can
size afford to sacrifice by secession such great
add important interests, and lay her planta-
