' DES ARC, ASK., HOY. 3, 1866,
! SOME THINGS THAT OUGHT TO
BE DONE.
[ The improvement and rapid building
j of our town for the last twelve months
j has been beyond the expectation of the
most sanguine. Indeed, we are fast
S assuming the fair proportions of a city,
j and as becomes us, wo ought to see to
| it that wo fall not back from the high
! position that we have attained. We
have already spoken sufficiently, we
! think, to arouse the most careless upon
| the necessity of building good school)
houses ; but upon this subject too much
i cannot be said. We must have schools
or we can never more than a little
I Country village. Again, the devasta
[ ting hand of war has sadly marred the ,
[ beauty of our town, the signs of whiebj
|arc well nigh removed, so far as naked
I-chimneys and scarred walls are eon-,
feerned; but our streets need cleaning.
| need grading, and we badly need pnve
(fments. The time was when we hadi
'[ the best paved town in the State; it is
1 rot so now, and unless this matter i
I attended to. pedestrians must this win
ter take the mud or stay at lioine. We
think that it becomes us as citizens of
Des Are to do all we can to add to the
if comfort and importance of our city, and
II surely nothing would so improve our
I appearance and ,conduce to our growth
,j and development, as well rounded,!
J clean streets, and good side walks, j
| We make these suggestions hoping j
I that they will he acted upon.
A NICE TIME COMING.
They have had an exciting time in |
Baltimore, if our exchanges report cor
rectly. Gov. Swan and the police com-:
missioners have had a row—the Gov.
supported by the conservative, and the !
commissioners backed by the rad. Gov.
Swan appointed the registrars of elec-1
tion, as is clearly his right, but the rails
not liking bis appointments have re-1
belled, and attempt through the clerks j
appointed by the police commissioners, i
to .ignore the registrars decision, and
say who shall and who shall not vote.
P'his state of affairs has brought about
a collision. ThcToni missioners tiro to
be tried, and if the Charges are suffi
cient will be removed—so the Gover
nor says;:but the rads sty they shunt., i
Much excitement prevails, and war,
blood, sword. &c.. are words frequent-i
Jy used. The Washington correspon
dent of the Louisville Courier says:
■Your renders are already aware that
We nre*well-nigh in the throes of a rev
olution here. The Baltimore police
commissioners' question has not abated
one iota of its interest, and will not
until after the hearing on Friday. What
shape it will then take no one is safe in
predicting. I can only say. and that
from the very best authority, that Gov.
Swan will not move a peg from his po
sition. He will maintain his authority,
try the commissioners on the charges,
and, and if good and sufficient cause is
found, he will remove them. The next
move will be for the Radical conspira
tors to take, and it is a matter of grave
speculation whether they dare resist.
If they do, a collision is inevitable.
IIy own opinion is, after a calm review
f the position, that they will back out.
f they do not, we will certainly have
ivil war, with the scabbard ‘thrown
Way.” Now that looks like it would .
care somebody ; and we believe it will
care the rads, lor they know that Bal
imore is a bad place to kick up a row.
teviewiug the subject, and examining
t closely, the Louisville Courier says ::
‘ Weare not in their secret, but we can
mess their object in raising a muss at
Baltimore just now. They wish to fire
ho Northern heart. They wish to in
pire the Fletcher party of Missouri,
lie Brownlow party of Tennessee, ami
ither similar parties in other Statej-,

yranuicHl programme upon the assur
B«e that the dominant party in the
forth will sustain and even fight for
hem- They hope even by threats and
lotes of preparation to scare the Presi
dent and Governor Swan into some,
sonoession and some exhibition of
ireakness anil want of nerve. They are
I'tiflgupon the shrewd hypothesis, that
ttost men when confronted with a for
midable menace will yield, and that
rhen you try if on one. who wont, you
an very easily back out yourself. If
he worst comes and the Annapolis and
Vashingtou functionaries roll up
leevos and show a disposition to "go
n,” why the rads can gracefully retire,
nd howl about executive tyranny ex
ited against Union men in behalf of
fed-handed rebels and so forth. And
bally we entertain such an opinion of
hese virtuous men that wc believe
hey would sacrifice a few of their over
preduious fools for the sake of testing
lertain nerves and finding out the po
Itical status and official discipline of
>ert. Grant and other officers of the
Spray, whose course in certain possible
emergencies is an important element in
heir present combinations. The com
ag war will commence at Baltimore,
bout in the same sense that the late
rar begun with Brown's raid on Har

Radicalism is Civil War.
There never was a people who trusted
their government to Radicals, without end
ing in civil war. The (.reek and the
Roman Radicals, in the midst of their
divisions, between the then Conservatives
and Radicals, brought on all their oivil
wars. All tho bad fellows of Athens,
Sparta, Corinth, etc., were Radicals, and
Clodius was a Radical, with his flings and
his gladiators. Jacobinism is French for
Radicalism. Robespierre was a Radical,
ditto Marat & Co.
Here, in our country, Radicalism often
puts on the garb of religion. Ho did it in
Greece and Rome. It was ever full of
“the gods,” and of omens, and the “entrails
of beasts.” There never was such a set of
religious rascals as the Roman and Greek
Radicals. Tire French Jacobins were so
pious as to make a goddess of a Cyprian,
and to worship her in the street. The
Lev. Kalloehs here, the Carson Brown-,
lows, and all of that ilk, arc only more j
modern inen of a very old school. Wc do
not menu to say, that even the Radical1
world is not full of pious, good men- —but j
these men are, generally, fanatics, such as j
Charlotte Corduy, the Maid of Orleans
—and have not the least idea of the prac-!
tieal world they live in.
Of course, men of such schools, and
such minds, can never govern, not even I
themselves. They brought about in this!
country one civil war. and endless taxation 1
upon us, and are rapidly getting up anoth
er. They threaten us with one from
Baltimore, and they are doing everything!
to get up one in Missouri and Tennessee, \
All about us. they are encouraging an im
peachment of tlie President, when they
know that means civil war. How a mer
chant, how a capitalist, how a man of pro
perty of any kind, can vote with, or work
for parties in the hands of such men. puz
zles and confounds all logic and history.
As we have often alleged, Radicalism is'
not a matter of opinion but a peculiar
moral and mental organization. '1 lie defi
nition given by the Express is accurate as 1
a matter of history, but defective as of!
moral idiosyncrasy. These people called |
Radicals have gathered within the scope i

than of those who follow and approve.!
And while these peculiar specimens of hu-1
inanity have figured in all revolutionary i
movements in all ages and countries, driv
the timid, and dazzling the weak by an
earnestness in pursuit of'evil as genuine j
as that of wisest statesmen, they always
find antipodes in every scheme ot religiousl
or political benefaction They never make |
coiicc.'sious. A Radical is always radically i
right, and all others radically wrong
They assent to no compromises because |
they arc gods and incapable of error, j
They detest those who would reconcile
differences in the interest of peace, order, |
prosperity and good government, i hey ■
were wont to declaim about “submission- }
isls,” and now have another clap-trap
catchword which has a musical sound as it1
glides from their lips or when read from j

will be led by them, is called “a go-bc- j

Mi KimiiEns.—The murderers of the
late Dr. A. W. Webb and his little sou
Mott, were arraigned yesterday by his
Honor. Judge Bartlett, upon an in
dictment found by the recent grand
jury against them for that awful crime.
There arc six indicted and in custody,
who plead “not guilty." Three white
men—so-called—as follows, to-wit:
J. Zcke, Chas. Ricabaugh. and .1. Marr.
The other three are negroes, to-wit:
Simpson Brown, Adolph I lauagan,
and Wasli Greer. The man .■'imp.
Brown was formerly the property of
Terry H. Brown, of Dallas county.
Two of the negroes had been soldiers
in the 54 rh p. S. nigger Iufantry. The
white men are from the north, having
formerly belonged to the U. S. Army.
We are proud to know that this most
, fiendish and foul murder is not charged
upon Southern men. It speaks vol
umes. however, showing the fearful
effects of negro emancipation i:i the
! South, and as in other eases of crime.it
shows that the perpetrators are from

No Union Desired by the North,
Docs the North desire in carhest to
he united to the South? We question
: it, and we have reason to do so, from
the continued denunciation of the
i Southern people which is heard at every
j Radical meeting, and by the exhibition
Ion banners at political meetings of t lie*
most offensive and libelous epithets
which can da,conceived by the demon
of hate and discord. Witness such as
the following, which was conspicuously
displayed at a Radical meeting in Nqw
York, on Monday night last:
; Our Murdered Dead ! Cnstle Thunder 1 ;
Belle Islnnd ! Andersonvillu ! ;
Does not the North well known that
the South can more than offset this by
refering to Johnson’s Island, Camp
Douglass, Point Lookout, Ship Island,
Fort Delaware and Rock Island? Roth
sides can refer to its murdered dead,
and official documents prove on which
side most murders were wantonly com
mitted.
If*the North desire Union with the
South on auv terms or conditions, what
does it hope or expect to gain in that
direction by its persitent denun
ciation of alleged crimes which it is
more guilty of committing than those
wtjom it denounces? Wc never see,
banners at a Radical meeting, display
ing sentiments which invite union, har
mony and good feelings with the South.
On the contrary, it is the same now as
it alwny has been since Radicalism con
ceived the idea that the Union was a
league with hell. This isjust what the
Radicals believe to-day, as they have I
ever done ; and it is upon this idea all
their actions towards the South are
founded—[St.Louis Times.

Cairo and Fulton Railroad,
T have ju t received a letter from Gen. I
M. Rraymjn, President of the Cairo and ;
Fulton Railroad, of Arkan-as, dated, 1
Springfield, Illinois Sept. 29th, 1$GG, j
from which I give the following extract.!
showing the present condition, and pros
pects of the road in which our people arc
sodecnlv interested. He savs:
“You may now count upon the success
of our long delayed enterprise. The in
crease of the grant to ten sections (U,-100 i
acres,) to the mile, affords capitalists the j
long needed assurance of sale investment., i
[ am arranging with parties who arc
able to put up half a million of dollars, to1

requisite time to get. our affairs ready, and
such a return of peace and co-operation in
Aikansas as will inspire confidence.
There is much to be done to get our new
schedule at Washington—to arrange and '
classify our hew ample securities, to got a
money basis in New York, which l am
now striving at. The money to build the;
road is not in Arkansas, neither the popu :
la Sion to give it business. The lands and ,
property of the company arc a good ulti
mate security, though of little value now :
and we must encourage a large emigration
of working men, farmers, mechanics, min
era, solid men, etc , to aid in untiring pros
perity to the State, thus giving value to!
our road and lmds
The above extract [ think sufficiently
explains itself, without any comment from
me, further than to say that 1 have entire
confidence in the ultimate completion of
this great road, and hove always, before
and during, and since the war, believed
that we would succeed in the end, if the S
grant of lands was preserved and kept for i
this purpose and this alone

North and South.— We wish to fur
nish a little practical illustration of
the operational the present time of the
hostile fooling displayed at the North
toward the Southern people. The1
New' Albany (Ind.) Ledger of Thursday !
says:
'L'he unsettled condition of the South,!
consequent upon the unfortunate poli- i
ev of the Itadicl Congress, is driving the ;
host, and most substantial Southern
families to the westen States. Many
families that had pleasantand profitable !

the uncertain legislation of a fanatical
Congress in regard to restoration, are |
willing to take their chances for peace !
and quiet in the solitudes of the west.
In connection with this, permit us to j
say that within two days we have been
assured by a merchant of Memphis.;

a heavy cash capital to invest, to com
plete his seasonable stock of merhan

The Next Presidency.— We will

The ultra Radicals will concentrate on

from the national banks, whose strength '
is groat and increasing, find who have
already fixed their grasp upon gome of
the most important -Federal offices in
the country. The Conservative Re

A Hint to the South.— We copy an

tablishment from England to New
York. Why cannot we persuade a few
English cotton manufacturers to move
their looms and spindles over here '{
They will get rid of the import, duties
and get back the three cent tax in a
drawback. They can bring the labor
in part, and we can furnish the remain

proposal to them :
Transfer of a Woolen Establish
ment from Scotland to Buffalo.—
Some time since we noticed the fhet
that a wealthy British woolen manufac
turer, removing his establishment to
this country, had determined upon its
location in Buffalo, as the most advan
tageous point for carrying on the large
manufacture which lie contemplates.
We are now able (o state that all ar
rangements are concluded, and that the
gentleman in question, Sir. MeMiHnn.
who is a Scotchman, of Inrge capital
and experience in the busine.se, lias now
returned to New York to bring on the
machinery which he had left in that city
while selecting the location for his fac
tory. It is his purpose to establish the
general manufacture of woolen goods
here upon an extensive scale, making a
