The Confederate Congress celebrates with
closed doors, and no well advised person
could wish their sessions to be the arena of
oratorical gladiators and the spectacle of the
populsce. But general statements of the
temper and intentions of parliamentary bo-
dies will, despite of every caution, find their
way before the public, and generally contain
more or less Of truth. 1t is now currently
believed, with much distress by judicious
men, that there is a small minority of Con-
gress, disposed to organize standing oppo-
sition to the present Executive OF the Con-
federacy.

Good for Arkansas.
Total Arkansas force

The largest vote ever cast in Arkansas was
something over SO, 000--consequently over
one-third of her voting population are now
in the field bearing arms in the service OF the
South.
This is not allie There is scarcely one of
the ifty-fve counties in the State that has
NOT yet one OF more. and some of them two
or three, organized companies, seeking and
desiring service. Ten thousand more men
might easily be raised for active service, if
the call should be made.
These figures show that as yet Arkansas
has probably done better than any other
State in the Confederacy; and Tennessee
must look well to her laurels, or Arkansas
will win from her the glorious title of .'7he
Kolamtesr Stafe."-Aanphis Appeal.
