For what purpose does Andrew
Johnson now undertake to revive
dead issues but to create tempest on
which he may ride into the Senate?
Does he think it is necessary for Ten
nessee TO reaffirm the abolition OF
slavery. universal suffrage, and the
indissolubility of the American Union,
when these things have been motor
iously and in every form consented to
for years by the unanimous voice OF
the people, as expressed in the Con-
vention to form Constitution, at the
polls, by the press, by private utter
anees, and by all the means by
which the public sentiment OF a
whole people may be known? Does
he believe it necessary for the State to
run about like an honest but crazy
man crying out what everybody be-
Iieves and knows: 81 am no thief, no
liar, no traitor, no rebel" Does he
wish to create a suspicion by the alb
surdity of making an unnecessary and
ridiculous denial? Does he think all
wisdom will die with him, and that it
is therefore become necessary that he
should assume the guardianship of
Tennessee, and illuminate sublime
bulls from his Vatican at Greenville?
We had thought him a man Of sense.
But we find now that he is in
his dotage. Has Mr.. COlyar turned
ed stupid enough to fall into the
trap set by this senile old gentlemang
Is he also in the plot aiding and abet-
ting? II so, there is motive for it
which needs to be solved, and a mys-
terry about it which remains unrid-
died. Is Colyar turning "IndepeRd-
ent?' Is a new party to be estab-
Iished, with GreenviIle for its nu-
cleus, and is it intended to
rally the black and tans to
the newly erected imperial
standard of the ex-President?
We shall see what this all means.
Both johnson and COlyar profess to
be Democrats. But COlyar is HemO-
cratic-C Conservative, and the ex-Presi-
dent is Democratic-Andrew, looking
chiefly after number one. The pro-
nuneiamentO has been issued, the plot
is ripe for a new party and "my
policy" and work is to be done.

ST. LOUIS, September 1S.-The
French and Irish citizens held a very
large meeting to-day at Coneordia
Park, to raise funds and express their
sympathies with the French people in
their struggle for liberty. A process
sion q mile long, composed Of various
civic societies and organizations and
citizens generally, marched through
the streets, making a fine display.
The park is crowded, there being not
less than 10,OOOpeOple present,

ARKANSAS.

From every part of Arkansas the
most favorable reports are made OF
the cotton and corn crops. Picking
has commenced, and with fair weather
there will be a large yield. A fair
price for the staple will place our
State in the front.
The amount of property liable to
tax in Little Rock:
Value of real S, ,252, ,95l
Value of personal property l,5SS, ,004
Total taxable property in the
7o5, ,Sos
A tax Of 1910 per cent. II the
same rate is established for this year
that would raise the sum of $50, 146. .75.
One-half the amount would be suffi-
cient, and it is to be hoped the council
will not levy greater tax than one
per cent. at farthest.
An Arkansas poet, a YdrG dUis, fur
nishes us the appended verses, written
with faultless taste and wonderful ease
and simplicity:
o, the red, the Haunting pettioOat,
That courts the eye OF day.
That loves to fare and be admired,
And blinks IrCfn far away;
tmay delight the rowing sight:
And charm the fancy free;
But II It's wearsg's half as bold,
I'll pass and let her be;
with her red and Haunting ptttiooat,
She's not the girl for me!

As pure ss drifted snow
That shuns the gsze ia crowded ways,
Where fOllies cons and go;

How beauti ful is shei
