Andrew Johnson a..

ANDREW JOHNSON, the President of the
United States, is now placed in position
that fully authorizes him to follow his
own views. The late elections must Ger.
tainly fully convince him of the entire en-
dorsement Of HIS POLICY as opposed ia
the folly Of a pretended Congress. Ht
can now pursue his statesmanlike course
with the assurance that the people, thu
fountain head of all political power, i:
sssurcdly with him, The people of the
free States, by which, we mean the States
that had no slavery before the war, have
unequivocally indorsed him and have, il
thunder tones, condemned the frantic en-
deavors of the Radical party to tramplC
upon the Constitution Of the United
States. The outraged people of thC
South now demand ofhm, as the expo
nent of the true Interpretation of the Fed
eral Constitution, to come to their rescue
and save them from the load they have
been forced to bear and lift from them
the burthen Of iniquity in the shape of
penurious office holders, imported from
another country. These men forced upon
us by policy, foreign to the genius OF
our republican institutions, come like To-
Gust sworms to suck from us our sub
stance. We now ask the President to
lend us helping hand and lift from us
this intolerable load. We feel certain
that his patriotic feelings will prompt
him to this, and hence we feel sanguine
Of the future. We feel that in Andrew
johnson we have defender of the Con
stitution, who will no longer hesitate to
follow the dictates Of his reason, and with
the voice Of the people for him, cannot
fail to do justice to the whole country.
We bid those who had linked their des-
TIMES to the anti Unconstitutional and negro
equality party. to beware of that ground
swell Unpopular Indignation that is now
fast overtaking them. The Democratic
or Conservative party can alone save the
country from political and financial ruin
Let all thoughtful men look around them
and behold the abyss upon whose brink
the country hangs and let all determine
TO lend helping hand to save us from
the ruin threatened Let all come fully
up to the mark indorse the President and
vow to stand or fall in his support.

A HUMILIATION.

The Radical Convention called foT the lIth,
10 meet at Little Rock, has had it, meeting,
and Its proceedings SHOULD cause every native
Arkansian Of Radical procliyites to blush for
the company he keeps. The carpet-bag poll
ticians, who came South 10 get office. ruled the
entire Convention. Had everything their
own way, snubbcd the native Arkansians and
told them 10 take a "back seat" Valentine
Dell, who has been the most Radical of the
radical, was most tunceremoniously laid on the
shelf. How long will Arkansians allow them
selves 20 he bsmboozled by th. set Of plum
dcring Office hunters. Many of them have
not been two years in the State and hold half
a-dozeu Offices already. Bowen. ,bah, we
sicken at the name > has not been here so long
has not dollars worth oftaxable property,
and now represents the people Of traw ford
lie brought some fine hog, to the country, but
he knew they were not taxed, or he would
not have brought them. Instead of house
holder, or freeholder, he is-not a bondholder
untaXed-but a-hogholder untaxed. And
these are the men who manage the COnycn-
ton for you-Radicals Of Arkansas! Have
you no man among you born on your soil, or
who have resided long enough to become
identified with your interests, and who hold
taxable property. TO make your laws and
guide your political ship. Away with these
pseudo patriots, these pretended philanthro-
pist, and put your old fcllow-citizcns in their
stead. Cease 20 rely on adventures and place
your trust in your ncighbors. Look at the
| Standard of Fort Smith, after preaching up
| Negro Suffrage until it caused the white Radi-
Gals to degrade themselves TO political equal
ity with the negroes, in order to elect Bowen,
now leaves them in the mire Of disgrace and
comes out against Negro Suffrage, Sec how
the newcomers treat you! Are you blind
and deaf? or have you lost your senses?
