THE SPEAKING.

According to previous appointment Col. Logan II. Roots made his appear ance here last Thursday morning, ac- companied by some half dozen other Radicals, to address the people of Des Arc. About noon crowd of some forty or fifty persons assembled in an unfinished building and the speaking commenced. He offered to divide time and MT. Gair accepted the offer. Col. Roots spoke for one hour and managed to say less in that time than any speaker we remember ever having heard before. We confess ourselves somewhat disap- pointed in his effort, for having read some of the public documents he has furnished here and 10 other places in such abundance, we could but allow that he might make little speech. But then he is 'sbold and vigorous canvasser," for we heard him boldly declare that he intended to risk his life in the mountains of Arkansas proclaim ing his merits and the glorious message of ''Lct us have peace." Mir. Gair fol- lowed in reply, consuming the same time, and meeting what little was ad- vanced by his opponent; and also an- nouncing the principles and defending the platform of the Democratic party. Our pet scalawag next took the stand and indulged in such abuse and mis- representation of the Democratic party as one of his calibre was capable, as- serting among other things of like character, that man six months ago could not say what he was then say ing but at the risk of his life. The ar engagements for his receiving little applause along through his speech was little better understood than when he spoke at Devall's Bluff, where negro was posted upon the stand to start the shout whenever he was kicked, but he not knowing anything of the prepara- tion failed to give the expected sign. Here one frequently attempted to give him applause, but none of the rest caught it up. Poor fellowsl go home and follow something that suits your tastes and abilities better; and you, Roots, if any mountain Ku Klux threat ems to blow YOUR brains out, just laugh in his face and ride on.

BB-The most unfortunate and objec- tionable feature connected with the polite war that is now being. fought between the parties contending for gov ernment, is the disposition to excite the people in opposition, by appealing to their passions in speeches of the most incendiary character. That this is true of the Radical party, no man of half ordinary intelligence will pretend to deny. The sole aim of this party, it seems is to convince the most ignorant class of citizens that the Democratic party is war party; and the negroes that the policy of the Democratic party is to return them to slavery. In order to prove in their miserable way these assertions, they do not hesitate to mis- represent, to garble extracts from Gen. Blair's letter to Col. Broadhead, and from the speeches of prominent Demo- crats since the nomination of our ticket. While their press and public speakers arc by these extracts and mis- representations, attempting to impress upon the minds of the people--that class at least who are in their ignorance incapable of thinking and reasoning for themselves-that the election of Seymour and Blair will involve the country in war--they do not believe it. None amongst them are so radical as to believe for moment, that there is the least danger of war in this country from the election of the Democratic Presidential ticket. Their only object in thought, and in fact, is to array the timid in their favor and give color and seeming to Gen. Grants otherwise meaningless phrase, "Let us have peace" It is demagoguic trick, fraught with danger and eminently in- cendiary in it's character. The possi- biiity of a war has never been hinted, except by radical politicians and through the radical press; and we now say what we honestly believe, that if by their evil teachings the country or even a part ot the country--ls ln- volved ill war, the consequences will fall upon their own heads and they as the prime movers must pay the penalty
 of their own sin; where we ask these incendiary teachers, is the necessity of laundering war from every stump
 when there is in the premises no war rant for it? What is the object of en- deayoring to whedle the black man into the belief that the Democratic party design dlsregarding the national and state constitutions--to again en- slave him? We repeat that these radi- cal politicians do not believe their own arguments, and only use them in the vain hope ofstcppins into power there
