The Arkansas Legislature has ap
pointed committee to investigat
the conduct of Senators Clayton an
Dorsey in connection with the recen
troubles in that State. Exactly wha
this committee can do besides ex
posing the mechinations Of thest
men is not clear. The Legislature
may call upon them to resign, but i
is not likely that carpet-baggers and
corrupt politicians as they are.
they Will recognize any honorable
obligations toward the wishes Of theil
constituents. Some day, however,
their time will come. Clayton's
term expires three years hence and
Dprsey's five years hence. They
have doubtless been at the bottom Of
Brooks intrigues to obtain posses
sion of the State Government. They
were parties to the infamous fraud
by which Baxter was declared elect
ed, Pnd when they found that they
could not use him, they, in conjunc-
ton with man as corrupt as them
selves, to-wit, tho carpet-bag Chief
Justice. in5tigated the measures by
which Brooks was declared Governor
by the Supreme Court. Ever since
the violent seizure Of tie State House
by their puppet, they have tried to
work the Federal machine at Wash
ington in his favor. They are di-
rectly responsible for the turmoil and
bloodsled in Arkansas, for the stop
page Of business, the squandering Of
money and the loss of life which
have occurred. Some punishment
ought to be meeted out to them, bus
Gs they hold Senatorial seats and
cannot well be removed from them
at present, perhaps tho best the
Legislature can do, is to put on rec
ord its dotestation Of their conduct.
They are in no sense representatives
'f the majority of the people of
Arkansas, and never wero, for they
'btsined their elections from legisla-
atures fraudulently chosen. But
heir influence amounts to nothing
n the Senate, anyway. 4

A NEW STATE.

The bill to admit New Mexico into
the Union us State passed the
House of Representatives on the Dist
ult, by n majority so large That there
is reason to believe that it will have
an equally favorable reception in the

to the fact that New Mexico is re-

LOYAL Reticence.

This phrase describes very forcibly that ST.
lence which is peculiarly loyal-lnspired by
respect and fear Of power, which works pos
itiyely and with few words. Power con-
c,als its purposes and plans until they are
developed by practical operation. The de-
voices of power are held in ave. and have
rot the temerity to dare to anticipate those
plans or express their favor or diSapproba-
ton of them. 1t is the part of the subjects
to approve the acts Of him who holds pow
er-neither to anticipate them nor to criti-
else them. Behold New York The people
are dumb while the partisan CoSKLINa
praises General GRANT and declares that he
"caunot be spared!" Behold the worship
pers and behold their idol, the representa-.
tive of power.
We do not exaggerate. We speak the
plain truth. We have lived long enough to
know what we speak of. Republicanism is
frank, generous, open, and amenable. The
arbitrary principle is reticent, suen, mys-
FERROUS. You only know it by its decisive
movements, its swoop, as of the bird of prey
that gathers up and carries eff the victim.
Ia former days every one held himself re.
sponsible to public opinion, and public opir.
ion was virtuous. In proportion as
public opinion has become corrupt, or
been beaten into the state of fear
and apprehension, has grown up
that mystery about the attitude of prominent
,uen-that reticence--that contempt for what
ever fods voice in the way Of accusation OF
imputstion upon the motives and purposes
OF those il place. In old times any man &C.
cused openly and frankly responded. Now
accusation is treated with silence, and men
pursue and triumph in plans hostile to re-
publicanism, while displaying contempt 70,
both accusation and criticism.
Nothing, in our opinion, could more clear
~ mark the revolutionary period through
which we have passed and the stage We have
arrived ut, We have lost the generous frank
ness Of republieanism; We have come to ths
reticenee and unaltcrable will Of arbitrary
power.
The Dispatch has SPOKEN Of the third term
as only logical thing. 1t has regarded tina;
thing as, furthermore, beyond the mere pro-
duct of eyents--as thing better suited to
our present condition than any idle mockery
OF the old-ashioned republicanism from
which we have parted, ia this country, for
ever. No country that loses its republican.
ism ever reestab,ishes it, and we in this one
need not hope for SO Impossible an event.
Let us make up our minds. The loyal
reticancen Of New York is powerfully signif-
icant. We may we'll know what is coming.
But there is a consolation in it. We prefer
the will OF one man to the dictu,n Of hum
drean tyrants. We do not love General
GaANr, but ne prefer his acts to the horsId
mixture Of fapaticism, naalisRity !, aud dena-
goguism, which We dad la the wretched
measures Of the Congress of the United
States, than which a more corrupt mud sem:
sual body never A5ufishst on this earth.
