DEs ARC, ARKANSAS, SEPT. I, 1866.
THE PROSPECTS OF THE SOUTH.

The country seems to be arousing itself in defence of that section which has for the past year been so unjustly treated by Congress and the radical party North The convention at Philadelphia, has met, and although less was done than we ex- pected, still the radicals have by its delib erations been given trembling knees and doubting hearts; for they plainly see that power is fast departing, power that has been for the woe of this Southern people, Other conventions are soon to be held, the object of which is to consider the best means to bring about peaceful restora- tion of the power and prosperity of yore It is indeed bud of promise to see stand ing side by side Federal and Confederate officers, men of both extremes of the coun- try, pleading with the people so to work as tc bring about peaceful relation be- tween the sections. We are not of that class that catch at straws, but we do think that the power is with the people to bring a themselves back into the Union without dishonor and without shame, but not so much is it with the Southern people as with that true Democratic element of the North, who have it in their power to say at the ballot box, they will not have miser- able radical fanatics to rule over them in the Senate and in Congress Andrew Johnson, is by his bold and fearless policy making name that will last through time; and he is gathering around him good men, with true hearts, who will not cease their labors until tyranny and oppression shall cease and justice again becomes the rule of the nation; not only in the hearts of her citizens, but in the action of her national counsils.

ARKANSAS MEMORIAL ASSOCIATION.
TO THE PUBLIC.

The object of this association is to pre- serve the memory of the Arkansas soldiers officers and privates died Tn the Confederate service, either in battle or otherwise, and to ascertain the resting places of soldiers from other States who have died in Arkansas.
 It is thought that by the active coopera- tion of many persons feeling an interest in this undertaking, the names of a multitude of such can now be rescued from that obli- vion which would otherwise be inevitable. Lists of the names of such deceased soldiers will be thankfully received, recorded and preserved.
 In case the means of the association will admit of it, it is also contemplated at some future time to remove, as far as practicable, the remains of deceased soldiers, to suita- ble burial grounds, and to erect such monu- ments as may best serve to express the affection of the people for their memory and to transmit their fame to future genera tions.
 Subordinate to this principal object of the Association, it is also designed to pre- serve the facts of the war To preserve the record of great events is debt which every generation owes to those which suc- ceed. It is to be feared that with all the pains that can be taken, the history of the past few years will become so perverted and distorted, as to present but a counter felt semblance of the important incidents of this remarkable period. To the end of securing and perpetuating the accurate materials of history, the association will, therefore, receive and endeavor faithfully to preserve all historical sketches of indi- viduals or events which may be forwarded to it; and such contributions are solicited with the earnestness which the importance of the subject demands.
 In order the more effectually to carry out the objects herein specified, it is hoped that County organizations will be formed in the different counties of the State, and that they will act in concert with and be part of, the General Association, the prin- cipal and central office being at this place
 The records of the Association will be open for public inspection at all times within proper hours; and it is to be hoped that, when completed, they will contain more perfect and detailed history of the war, so far as our own State participated in it, than could in any other way be ob tained All communications to be ad- dressed to

A RADICAL BEAUTY.

Col. Alls, Mir. Allis, or some other kind of Allis, of Pine Bluff, Arkansas, a loyal Radical of the Lincoln, Sumner, yankee school, has written letter to some of the loyal brotherhood, which we find published in the Bloomington, GILL; ) Pantagraph. It is q sweet scented epis- tie, and smacks very much of yankeeism, treachery and radical villainy. Hear what he says:
 was disposed to accept Mir Johnson and his policy upon the ground of his former acts and speeches (since 186D and to give him q fairJtrial in hopes he could develop enough of the '.loyar' element in the South to save the Government and humanize the whole Ameri- can people. But he has failed to do anything that can by possibility, aid the original loyal Union men of the South, but by his policy has placed them where they were, under rebel rule in 1868 and 1864, and by his course has proved the declaration of the ''Chicago Con vention that s'the war is failure" It has failed, by its leniency to rebels, to gain the respect of Union men or rebels, and has given up the whole ten remaining States to the con trol of rebels, as clamorously demanding their
 
 ,manding their rights in theterr.tories. Shall they be permitted, with hands still dripping with the blood of Union men, murdered, rob bed, &c to sit in the United States Senate and House, and aid in making laws to protect the future of our country from those scenes of blood and carnage? It rests with you men of the North, sir. Elect men that will go with them for the policy of the President, and an other and worse rebellion and revolution than the past is a fixed fact, and all the loyal men of the South are driven to the wall.
 Tomorrow our election comes off here, and l write 1t in advance, we are routed-''horse, foot and dragoons.' We may save one man, and one only; all the rest are relentlessly rebel. intense lovers of Andy Johnson. Three years ago heard several of them swear he wasthe most unmitigated scoundrel on earth; that they would hang him on sight, &c And by the way, we were treated to n hanging match the past week. Two men were found hanging about thirty miles from here. One was member of the last legislature. and had been guilty of piloting the Federals through the country. Two more are missing. Bands of murdesers are traversing the country in different parts, committing all sorts of dcpre- dations.
 q Now, who is this Col. Allis, tha. is so gealous in the union radical cause? We know but little of him, save that in '63 and 4, he was speaker of the House of Repre- sentatives. This of itself should be enough to condemn him. It is time that this high handed villainy, this gross mis representation of southern action and feel ing should cease Our burthen is already heavy enough, without the bitternes O feeling that is visited upon us through tn, representations of such turbulent wretche as this Pine Bluff correspondent.

RAILROADS.

That Des Arc is not alone in her desire for the accomplishment of that great ob- ject, the building of the Des Are, Dssdan- elle and Fort Smith Railroad, the follow ing extract from the Pine Bluff Dispatch gives evidence:
 We observe with pleasure thatou neigh boring city Dcs Arc is using every exer- tion to build rail road from that place via Dardanelle to Fort. Smith. By the earnest manner with which they take hold of this enterprise it promises every indication of success
 It seems from the indifference with which our leading men view rail road en- terprises in this city that such things were altogether ignored For Heavens sake let us have meeting and pass few reso- lutions if we do nothing else; let us show to capitalists abroad that we consider the building of some of the contemplated roads of sufficient importance to give them a lit tie attention. If we do nothing in the matter, outsiders will not We must call the capitalist attention to these enterprises by largely attended rail road meetings.
 five can only once attract the atten- ton of Northern capital to our State, the advantages and profits arising from money put in our rail road, will be so great an inducemcnt, that 1t will not be long before our State will be checkcred all over with good paying roads.

From Washington.
The Freeamen or North CaroIina.

The OF North CarOAInas
WASHINGTON, January 21.-Colonel Whit
tlesey, Assistant Commissions of the Bureau
of Refugees, Freedmen and Abandoned
Lands in North Carolina, reports that so
generally have the freedmen sought en-
ployment and obtained it that the demand
for laborers cannot be easily supplied. He
says The expectation that lands would be
granted by the Governments hope first
kindled by rebel politicians in their efforts
to fire the Southern heart and afterward
increased by the eoniscation act-has now
passed away. All officers of this bureau
discountenanced such hopes by public ad-
dresses and circulars, widely scattered, but
SO fixed had they become before the war
closed that it was not easy to eradicate them.
When, however, Christmas actually passed
and the year ended without any gifts of
the kind it was admitted we had told them
the truth and they had been deceived by
the talk of their former masters. So, also,
on the other hand, have the idle and con-
science begotten fears of instruction passed
away. All admit that a more quiet and
orderly Christmas has never been ended in
this region. The history of the world may
be challenged for another instance of such
good conduct, under similar circumstances,
as the freedmen have thus far maintained.
