Our Martyrs.

On a sandy plain, in the midst of pine
forest, bounded by murky swamp, there is
pit, filled with dead mems bones, unnum-
bered, unnoted, uncounted, unrecorded,
unnoticed, without sepulturs or the sacred
rights of burial. By thousands, not dead
by the bullet, not stricken by disease from
the hand of God, starved to death with the
cruel torture of hunger, amid such plenty
that an army of six myriads with its cattle
and horses. could subsist on the surplus
provision of the country in rapid march
past Audersonville-or murdered with frost
under the shadow of the fat pines, which
sang sad requiem to their memories, as the
winter winds moaned through the branches,
whose very signing called up in frenzy the
happy homes and warm hearths of tbs
North to the wandering minds of the dying
martyrs. - Gen. Butler.

How 1t Looks to an Arkansas
Editor.
The Fort Smith (Arkansas) New FL

The Fort Smith (Arkansas) New Era in
an article on reconstruction says:
The strife on the bloody battlefield is end
ed it is to be hoped forever but to suppose
that all danger to freedom and the rights of
man is passed would be fatal error. Treason
is crushed but not extinguished, and what it
could not gain by the bullet it is now seek
ing to gain by the ballot.
Hence the anxiety of the late insurgents,
to have the several States, as yet excluded
from the national councils, readmitted.-
This point once gained and the authority of
these States again established within the
territory of each without their having given
a safe guarantee of securing fully the inslien-
able rights of all men-and the fruits of the
dear bought victory will be lost to great
extent.
In this connection, let us look for a
moment, in all candor, at the condition Of
affairs in our own state. Arkansas has al
ways had considerable and staunch Union
element within her. Her ten thousand
white soldiers, who battled for the Union
to say nothing Of the far greater number Of
colered troops raised in the State-provec
it. Her strenuous and spontaneous efforts
as soon as the rebel yoke was removed TIVE
years ago, To resume her proper relation
with the Federal Government, likewis
proved it. Yet no candid Union man il
the State will deny that his party is greatl
in the minority to-day .o
The State once readmitted, civil law
must rule. The authority of the Genara
Government, which now rules here as in
territory, would then be narrowed down I
the extent it exists m the loyal States. Th
late enemies of the Union would soon hav
again, preponderating influence in tn
Legislature. That body at its first session
would, without delay, call another Convel
ton to undo,a as far as it was able, what goo
the first Convention did. In that cas-
every Office in the State will be declare
vacant, and at a new election very fe
Union men could expect to get within
!. thousand miles Of any office. And *ht
, guarantee can the members of Congre
about to be elected, if they were ever
sound, offer that body for the supremacy
Q loyalty in our State? What evidence ha'
3 they to offer that the people Of Arkans
have removed all cause for apprehension
3 the future?

The Pride that preeedeG De-
struCtioR. .-f.

In his recent letter to the Nashville Dis
patch, Henry S. Foote makes the following
statement: .....
1t is known to all that labored in every
way for peace, in order to avoid the very
state of things which the South is now ex-
periencing. Then 1 knew, and | am now
prepared to establish, that President Lin
coin was ready to grant peace to the South
on the basis of universal amnesty, gradual
emancipation, and the payment of $400, 900, I,
| 900 to the slaveholding population Of the
South. In point of fact, President Lincoln
offered these generous terms to the three
commissioners whom he met in Hanp-
! ton Roads last winter; but their hands
we're SO unwisely tied up by instructions
from President Davis, that it was not in
their power to accede thereto. They were
not even allow ed to report the proposition
of Mr.. Lincoln to the Confederate Congress

The New York World denies that the
resolution of the Democrats relative to
equality of taxation" has any such mean
ing as it is generally supposed in the party
to have-to wit, the taxation Of Govern
ment bonds. 1t says
There is something that the Democratic
party does not ask, and which would amount
to nothing if adopted. The Democratic
party advocates now, as it has always advo.
Gated, honest feldity to engagements, and
the sanctity of public faith. 1t demands
nothing in relation to the public debt, but
such equalization of the public burdens as
will enable the people to pay it without a
sense of injustice The Government has
engaged its honor for the exemption ofits
bonds from State and municipal tdpation,
and IL cannot uithom disgrace repudiate its
contract. A repeal of that part Of the loan
law might unsettle public confidence, but in
other respects it would amount to nothing.
That clause of the law is, as regards its
enacting force, mere subterfuge. 1t merely
served to advertise an advantageous portion
Of the lean. The Federal stocks ,oould be
1ust as much exempt from State taration
cithout that clause as they are aOtht it.

LET it. bo borne in mind that the Ohio
Democracy of 1865 had no word of denun-
citation against slavery, that it made no dec
laratiop against rebellion. that it, gave no
woid of cheer for the Constitutional Amend
ment, whioh provides for freedom in.all the
States.
In 1861 the Ohio Democracy sent greet
ing to the Secessionists, that it would con-
slider the right and prepriety of coercion
when the North had done its duty. The
South realizes that fact, and in 1865 the
Ohio Democracy sends greeting to the co
to help it retaliate for said coercion. =
