Busy Bodies.

The brute creation has smaller share OF
pure unadultcrated meanncss than the hu'
man family. Man can be guilty of more low.
mean, dirty, unprincipled tricks than the
meanest Of all the mean beasts. There arc
degree. of meanneSs even in man. but the
meanest. lowest. most contemplate Of all
meauness is that Of the spN or common infor-
mer. Our otherwise decent and respectable
city. is laboring under the curse of some Of
these eXeerrble creatures. They make 1t their
aim to pry into the business of Others and re-
port to somebody, they care not whom. so that
trouble andheart- rt-burning may be produced in
the community. All the diseases that flesh
is heir to, are Of minor Importance when
compared TO these busy-bodys. Time. alone
can cure them. OF course these creatures are
not easily found ont. We are Only reminded
of their presence among us by the trouble
they bring about.
The Van Buren press., 1866-08-11

r9S- Gradually the old business appearance
of trade is springing up again among us. In
to-day's issue the advertisement of Messrs. J.
B. Shaw & Co.. of Fort Smith. presents itself
to our readers. We notice that this we'll
known and enterprising house have located
branches Of their firm at New Orleans, ST.
Louis and Little Rock. and they offer every
facility and accommodation to all who may
have business or other matters to transact in
either of those cities. Their large and varie-
gated stock of goods has been laid i'm express
ly to supply country dealers and the trade
generally. At this moment we can only
make mention Of their handsome and extern
siye assortment of furniture, such as Bureaus,
Bedsteads. Tables, Chairs. Mattresses, &c. &c.
Ladies will here find choice, selected. and
splendid assortment Of sidesaddles. Their
splendid assortment Of bar-irOn and steel of
all sizes, is the largest and best in the State
Their invoices Of choice liquors have been Sc
lected with special view to their present and
future reputation, and needs but trial to Sc
cure custom for all time to come. Mr.. j. B..
Shaw is well and favorably known among us
as polite and ever attentive. energetic mer-
chant, and he guarantees to place all his goods
at prices to suit the times: in fact at rate of
only a small per centage over cost prices has
large and quick and cash sales. enabling him
thus to offer his wares to the public, and defy
ing competition in home-prces and quality.
We refer our readers to their advertisement
for further particulars.

Grand Success of the Conservatives in
1ho - Crawford.
Radicalism Strongly Rebuked.


The full returns of the vote of this County
is given elsewhere. The County voted only
6l9. two-t tbin's of which were given to the
Conservative candidates. OF course all good,
peace-loving men are highly gratfied with
the result. This is a proper rebukc to the ne
gro-equality radicals. We hope many who
were deluded by the radical leaders, will see
the error of their ways, and always. hereafter,
vote against the traitorous and disintegrating
principles advocated by such fanatics as
Thad. Stevens and his worshippers The lea
ding Radicals of Crawford profess now to ig-
more the paternity of the Radical ticket, and
some swear before high heaven they never
knew anything Of the matter. If they had
succeeded in bamboozling sufficient numbers
of the people into voting for the Radical can
didates and elected them. then we would have
found plenty of men to avow the paternity of
this ticket. But finding themselves in hope
loss minority they are attempting to BASTARD
ize their nurseling. Citizens of Crawford,
look to your sister county, Sebastian. Listen
to thehigh notes of joy, pealing forth from
the negro-loying leaders of the Radicals In
that County they have been successful, and
of course they speak out. The Radical party
has been allowed to grow and gain strength,
by being designated as harmless in Sebastian,
until it has fastened its bloody fangs too
deeply to be readily torn away.
A thousand cheers for old Crawford. May
her escntcheon never be polluted or stained
by a victory at the ballot box of fanatacsm
and negro-sm, in the name of :" Union"

ister, says Can't has been heard from.
He ispatriotic and self sacrificing as ever.
He has been well paid for dirt eating and
is evidently bidding for another contract.
He belongs to the race of birds that foul
their own nests, and are despised by all
decent animal creation. The gratifying
information that CAN'T is still true to him
self, is conveyed to the over-anxious
public by the Tribune in the following
terms:
Gen. Can't of Arkansas, approves
the constitutional amendment, although
under it's strict application he himself
would be one of the disfranchised; and
in this view, as in that of impartial suf-
frage, Gen. CAN'T has been consistently
patriotic since when he voluntarily laid
down his arms and made submission, as
nearly as he could, an act of virtue"
CAN'T is virtuous he is ''loyal" He
swallows the Radicals hedgehog with
every protestation Of delight, and is,
therefore consistently patriotic" Eve
ry Southerneris is "patriotic who can be
bought to give his approval to anything
calculated to conserve power in the hands
of the faction that has made so much
trouble for the country, and is still deter
mined to rule or ruin"
The Van Buren press., 1866-08-11
Conservatism Triumphant.

Everything passed off quietly in Washing
ton County. The election resulted in a Con-
servative victory by large majority. Fran
lin County has also given conservative VIC
tory. The northwest has spoken in thun-
der tone in rebuke of negro-equality and suf-
rage, and in support of the policy of Prcsi-
dent Johnson. Those who would carry out
the principles of anarchy and ruin" may
now take a back seat.
