dissatisfied Southerners to emigrate to. A
dispatch from there, under date of Novem-

from the Southern States of America, have
arrived at Demerara, and have come as set
tiers, who are likely to make valuable ad-

EDITOR PINE BLUFF DIsPATcH. Since
the passage of the military Reconstruc-
ton bill by Congress, | have received
several letters from friends and acquant-
ances in Arkansas, asking me what
thought should be the course Of the peo
pie Of that district under the surrounding
circumstances. As all | have that is
valuable in this life, either socially 20
litcally, or pecumarily are with the peo-
pie Of that State, of course, it would be
unnatural for me not to feel deep inter
est, not only in the present status, but
the future Of that people. Their pros
perty and happiness, is my prosperity
and happiness. Therefore ! have no
motive or reason for Withholding any
views | may have as to our duty at the
present time and under the present cir
cumstances and as your paper is read
generally by the people of your section
of the State, / send you this note for pub.
lication that all may know where / stand
and what | think should be done.
1st. think that the civil authority in
all departments, should, with scrupulous
aud cautious integrity and prompt and
impartial justice, to all classes of fcitizens,
continue to administer the laws, and there.
by prevent even the appearance of the
necessity Of military interference on their
part in the conduct Of the local affairs Of
the State And here | will remark that
the commander at first will be dsincined
to take upon himself the duties Of civil
administration, and will only do so when
provoked into it, by the failure Of the
civil authority to do their duty, or, n
thing which is likely to take place, upon
the petition Of bad and designing men,
who are alike unwilling to do or secure
justice, representing to the commander
that the courts are not doing their duty
in certain specified cases, This clas, Of
men are to be greatly feared; and can
only be counteracted, by extraordinary
diligence and caution on the part Of the
courts, and the people. ....
ID | think that people every where
should contest one with the other who
shall live and conduct himself with the
greatest propriety, forGiving and forget
ting all past differences and difficulties,
The Van Buren press., 1867-04-26

and rcviying and cultivating old friend
ships, feeling and knowing that the com
mon dangers which now alike threatens
all. should make rs friends and brothers
not enemies aud strangers,
3rd. think SO soon rs the registra
ton OF voters shall commence every
white man who can, should go forward
and register, and that the black man, who
will be ignorant in part of what is going
on, should bc taken in hand by the whites
and instructed in their rights and aNties,
and made to feel they are anon Their
friends not their enemies. And those for
whom they are laboring, at the time,
think, should especially see to it, that
they register,
ith. think there Is an identity of in
terest between the whites and blacks OF
Arkansas, aud that the parties should be
taught that fact. They must live to
gether as friends or enemies-make them
friends
| think before the election for the con
vention shall take place, good Conserva
tive men, identified with the country,
should be put forward as candidates, and
that they should make appointments and
call the people together, and speak to
them honestly and fairly of the situation
and call upon them to come on the day
of election and declare their will
9Th. | think the convention should
adopt constitution in conformity with
the demands of our Congress.
have given no reason for the above
opinion, but hope to be at home soon
and will then be ready to give my reasons
on all proper occasions.

A HARD HIT AT BUTLER-The Washington
correspondent ofthe Baltimore american, Civ
ing an account of the reading by the Clerk Of
the House of Stevens conliscation speech
says:
While the Clerk was reading the above
paragraph, and particularly when he came
to these lines "He commanded the men and
the women to borrow from their confdins
neighbors jewels Of silver and jewels of gold.
and that they did so. and spoiled the Egyp-
tians and cent forth Jiktanded," every eye
was turned upon Butler, whose ordinarily
chalkly face assumed by turns all the colors
of the rainbow. The profanity of Stevens can
not, Of course, be justified on any ground but
If, rs is supposed, the allusion was intended
merely as a sly fling at the hero Of Bethel and
of New Orleans (his rival for the next Presi.
dency), it must certainly be regarded, at least
atrociously malignant.

WN II. KING, EDITOR or THE NEW Or.
LEANS TINES, NEW ORLEANS, LA-Dear
Sir: You have done me the honor TO call
for my opinion relative to the action of
the South under the Military Bill. Hav-
ing seldom taken am interest in politics,
/ ! do not feel well qualified to advise on
so momcntnous n question nevertheless,
as the same desire to obtain my views has
been manifested from various quarters,
shall not shrink from the responsibility
kof expressing them, in the hope that they
may tend to quiet the public mind, 20
Justly alarmed at this moment.
In my humble opinion, We have but
one two things to dU--resist or sub
nit; the first is inadmissiblc, in our pain
fully exhausted condition. Four years
of desperate war have taught us that the
." argument Of the sword can no longer
be resorted to by us to redress our griev-
ances. We must, therefore, submit; but
with that calm dignity becoming our
manhood and our lost independence.
Having been oyerpowered in the late
struggle, we can submit to the harsh and
ungenerous conditions ofour conquerors
without dishonor and we must adopt the
least of two evils "a futile resistance would
only cause our rivets to be driven closer !;
we must then acquiesce or leave the coun-
try. But we love too dearly the land Of our
birth to abandon it in the hour Of sever
est trial. We should avoid also, bring
ing it, by internal dissensions, to the con,
dition OF poor Mexico and the unfortun-
ate South American Republics.
With regard to the suffrage Of the
freedmen, however Objectionable it may
be at present, it is an element of strength
for the future. If properly handled and
directed, we shall defeat our advcrsaries
with their own weapon.
The negro is Southern born; with
little education and some property quail
iications, he can be made to take sufficient
interest in the affairs and prosperity of
the South to insure an Intelligent vote on
his part,
In our future political contests with the
North, on protective tariffs, internal i'm
provement etc, the freedmen of the
South will side with the whites of the
South and ofthe West, and they will thus
contribute to give us back the influence
we formerly had in the councils of the
nation.
Our people should understand that the
Radicals can remain in power only SO long
as the public excitement is kept up as
with the turbid waters of the Mississippi
river, the sedimentary particles are kept
up at the surface only SO long rs the wa
ters are in motion, the instant the current
is checked those particles fall to the bot
tom. Thus will it be to the Radicals
when peace and quiet are restored to the
country; the Conservatives will then take
the reins in their own hands, and the con
stitutional laws of the land will once
more prevail.

UNITED STATES SENATE CHAMBER,
Washington, March L. lSG7S
DEAR SIR: Your letter of the sth inst is re-
ceiycd The bill you referred to was passed
in the earnest hope that II would tend to the
full restoration of all the States to all their
rights In the Union. The sixth section think
too harsh, but it was put in the House as the
result OF opposition from both extremes. At
the request of large numbers from the South
we are passing Il supplementary net to provide
machinery OF reconstruction. The original
bill lett all this to each State but there was
danger OF double organizations and conycn-
tons, ana therefore, TO avoid further strife or
difference. tuiS new act will be passed. 1t is
merely scailoldng.
My earnest conviction i, that the South
should not forego this opportunity to he re-
stored TO representation; and You may rely
upon 1t. that a majority in both Houses will
adhere 70 this offer, and execute it In good
faith and to the letter. If your people viii do
