Grand Opening.

The opening of the lower house of the assembly on Monday, reminded one very much of an angry bear or . mad bull. Brooks of Phillips, intro- duced the resolution endorsing Clay
 ton action in the matter of proclaim
 ing martial law in eleven counties of the state. to be found in the house proceedings, with seriousness of manner absolutely ludicrous. This plausible divine, who has evidently seen too much of sacred history not 10 understand the pharisaical character, proclaimed that those who did not obey the laws must dic,' and they had as well make their wills The gov ernment must be sustained, or the country 'from the Missouri border to Texas would be made desert waste" This humble follower of the meek and lowly Jesus evidently forgot that crime consists in the intent, and that it is usual in civilized countries to graduate the punishment of law breakers accor-, ding to the magnitude of their crimes. More than this, his teigned earnestness. and indecent haste to press the resolu- ton through, together with his violent manner. was too apparent to all. It NOuiu uOuOllcSS nave OtCIl " Ciss Itot " say candid, had the house been consid- crate enough to have awaited documen- tary evidence from Clayton or others that would justify intelligent action in premises. We doubt whether half dozen of the sixty members present knew anything about the slate of affairs in the counties placed under martial law. Had this course been pursued. Parson Butler might have been saved his profanity in saying that Grant will give them the devil" now, and when his four years were mp he would he. elected again and "give them he'll (meaning the democrats.) Gray, (negro) too might have been spared the pain or announcing with boldness that pre- cuded~all idea of danger, that his race would answer ,he radical call to man. Yery amusing to see these peace warriors. insatiate thirst for blood when no enemy turks near. The morning hour was truly amusing. Ii was equal to seeing a menagarie fed with raw bcef.--Little Rock Gazette.

PROTECTION.

In former number Of the Citizen q
 few thoughts in an introductory way were offered on the subject of Protetc-
 ton, but as the public mind was at that time engrossed with political cx- citcment-wroHght up to the highest tension by office seekers and sensation- ists--it was deemed best to defer any further suggestions on the subject of Protectioi til the din of political strife had hushcd. and the smoke from the great battlefield had been borne away by the November blasts But the election has now passed and still the wheels of fine roll on; the si.n ca reers through the heavens. and inc stars shine as of old-notwithsiandin all the croahings of il-omcnea crows. The farmers are industriousiv engaged in gathering their well earned crops, and are being richly rewarded in quan- fity and quality ot productions. and the prices they realize for such articles as they bring to market In fact, we as people have many causes for con graduation and rejoicing. Prosperity smiles upon earnest efforts in every de- | pertinent of business; at no time since | the late war have the people of Arkan- sas had so many inducements to hold | up their heads and press onward and | upward till they make our State what 1t will one day be--the pride and boast of the South and West. But to return 10 our subject; we use the term pro- lection in special and somewhat re- stricted sense. by applying it to the protection ofevery effort that is being made to bniid nleehanic shops, machine shops, mills, founderies, schools, aud every species of art and skill that tends to develop the resources Of the country and stimulate the energy of our people, and iavite immigration into our State. Let us fos a moment look at the facts as they exist; what are we doing to make ourselves an independent, self relying people? What are we pro- ducing in this country but the raw material every dimes worth of which we send away to be wrou ght into sl,np,s | and fabrics and returned 10 us, with all the costs Of transportation. commis- !

Our Conference met in this place on yesterday. A pretty full attendance of tie minisiers--gcneraly ln good health. We have lost two of our mem brrs this year--Rev. W. F. Radcliffe and EIijah l..

sions, insurance, Sc. Do you want an ax handle, a hoe. trace chains, axes, hats, shoes. jeans, tin cups, blows, har- ness. rope and bagging, linsey, common cotton cloth, or domestic; in fine. any thing and every thing, and you go to the store without one time thinking of patronizing and protecting home in- dustry, by every effort to encourage men to build shops and machinery for making these things at home; it has been done elsewhere and why may we not do the same thing in Arkansas But if we fold our arms and say let some one else take hold; those that succeed us will accomplish what we fail to do; but we are not without hope of better day soon to dawn upon us, Tor there are some enterprisng public spirited men among us whose energy and example will doubtless induce others to put forth their efforts in en- terprises so laudable. As is known to the people of Des Arc and contiguous country, we at this place have one of the largest and best saw mills in the State, from which large quantities of the best lumber are being constantly shipped to different points; also, one of the finest corn and wheat mills any where in the Southwest. The flour made at these mills equals any made in the East. West or North, besides these mills give employment to quite a num- Der of hands, thereby sustaining and improving every other department Of business in and around Des Arc. Messrs. Ten Eyck. Soule & Co. came to our town since the war entire strangers in this part of the country, but they brought with them nerve, energy, tal- ents and capital, and as q matter of course they have succeeded, as such men always do succeed they have pur- sued an even, quiet and at the same time a gentlemanly and high toned course and it certainly is the interest as well as the duty of the people here to patronise and encourage these gen tlelnen in their noble enterprise, for in so doing the citizens will display an ap- preciating spirit. and at the same time, protect and build up their own interest. Two shops were recently opened here, one n gunsmith shop, the other black
 smith shop, the former is carried on by one of the finest workncn of any cline or country; the latter is under the di- rection of ono of the brightest young genius that ever struck upon Vulcan's anvi,-success to them both. A few more such men with their shops. mills and factories, and we will have some thing of town at Des Arc. aud not be under the necessity of sending North or East for an aX-handle, pistol, barrel of flour or yard of cottonade, and this is what we mean by Protection.
