TIE New DEPARTURES Down SouTH.-Here is
what A. H. Stephens says in the Atlantic San,
denouncing the fourteenth and fifteenth amend
ments and the "new Departure"
Nor are We in assailiug them, engaged in any
such ridiculous adventure as Don Quixote in his
charge upon the wind-mills, unless the people
of these State ripe for despotism. Nor are
engaged in any such fantastic political com.
edy as that of calling upon the people to repeal
the unconstitutional Reconstruction Acts, or any
thing founded upon them. Unconstitutional
acts, and everything that rests upon them, are
not laws They are nothing but nulletes,
The Mobile Register talks in the same strain:
We received by the last mail letter from one
of the most enlightened public men in the city of
New York, from which we make the following
extract:
NEw YoRK. July 90 1871.
convinced that the departure is going to defeat the
Democratic party II it should be adopted by nominating
convention. Indeed feeling of some who were
for il month ago But the great cheat whole thing

ture and there well may be- for it has done to demor
aze and divide the Democratic party, than anything that
has occurred since the close of the could almost
anything for the sake of but convinced that
feat follows inevitably the heels the departure
The Hdticised passage in this extract touches
point upon Whch our suspicious have long since
been aroused to-wit: That there are men call
ing themselves Democrats, who favor the ''de-
parure" because they in favor of a perpetu-
alton of the fraudulent amendments. We can put
finger on some of the leading (so-caled) Dem
ocratic papers of the North, that have long since
shown that they were republicanized so far
the doctrines of the XIVth and XVIII Amend
ments were concerned. We discovered this be-
fore the " departure" was concocted. These
me- ara tho nuthnPe of ~ nd
they have set it before the Democracy on the
plausible plea that its adoption was necessary to
success while yet, in their hearts, it was the
permanent SUCCESS of'the amendments that they
were after. 1t remains to be seen, when the De-
mocra"y of the whole country is assembled in
convention, whether it will have the force and
wisdom necessary 10 nip this conspiracy against
its integrity and its triumph in the bud. We be-
lieve it will, for there is yet a whole year within
which to untangle it.

THE course OF Governor Haight in adopting
the "sent contempt" dodge regarding the many
charges against his administration and the criti-
cisms of his own acts, may possibly be defensi.
BILE from certain stand points. But there is no
excuse for his refusal to investigate the charges
that have been made in connection with the con-
struction of the State Capitol. These are sus-
tanned by the atiidavts of reliable men, and the
efforts at defence made by Hobson, Bennett,
ct at., only go to confirm their truth. The peo-
pie will not treat the matter with silent con-
tempt even if Haight does, except by manfestng
their contempt for the present administration by
silently dropping their ballots into the box to
oust it from the power it has so shamelessly
abused d-MarySUiHe appeal.

THAT Notwithstanding under structures Of
the Journal last week, Mr.. McMurry hastens to
publish the fact that he received friendly word
ed letter from the senior proprietor of this paper
nearly two years ago about the Fee Bill There
is nothing in the communication that needs pal
liation or denial for any reasons whatever. We
remember the contents of that letter, and the cir.
cumstdnces under Which ii acas written The more
this matter is inquired into, the less capital will
be derived for McMurry. Besides this, the pub
lie well understands that the use of private cor
respondence for different purpose from that
for which it was intended, is breach of conf
dence, not against the statute certainly, but un-
justifable, and not to be defended. We pre-
sumo Mr.. McMurry acted under angry impulses
and regrets having done so.

EVERY seven years Psychologists say the hu-
man body is entirely changed and renewed.
Every moment of our lives every part of our
bodies is wearing out and is being built up anew
OF fresh matter. This work is accomplished by
the blood, which goes through every part. But
If the blood becomes weak yitiated and does
not perform its work properly, the system is act
uaily poisoned by the worn-out matter, clogging
the vital organs, instead of leaving the body.
For dyspepsia, bilousness, kidney, skin and
liver troubles, fevers, and all diseases arising
from vitiated blood DR.. Walkers California Vim
egar Bitters are a sovereign remedy.

The History of Gods Church.

From its Origin to the present time, by
ENoCH PoND, ID. D., Professor of Church
History in the Theologicrl Seminary
of Bangor. Illustrated with
Maps and numerous Engray-
ings.
The anthor Is well known. His numerous
works have had large sale. He is regarded as
standard authority on the subject, having
been for many years professor of fChurch His
tory in one of the principal theological insti-
tutions of,the country. There is an cvenness
and general reliability in his writings that is
of great value. He writes to help others,
and not to display himself; hence, his simple
straightforward clear, direct, and transparent
style. A child may understand him.
1t answers difficulties in the bible, and for
the Family, the Sabbath School, the Pastor,
tho Young Minister the Student, the great
mass of Christian People and general readers,
it is one of the very best books of the kind
ever issued from the press.
Mrs. z. N. LEA, ofFort Smith, is agent for
this county and is now canvassing Van Buren,
for subscriptions to the work, and we COM
mend her to the kind attentions of our peo-
pla
