DES ARC, ARK., NOV. 17, 1866.
'" GOV. MURPHY'S MESSAGE?
. The Governor has sent his message
to the General Assembly of the State.
In it there is nothing extraordinay, if
| we except the marked disposition to
j evade a committal to any policy or line
of conduct. After sotting btffofe the j
House the manner by which the pres- j
ent State Government was organized,
which he declares “is the offspring of,
necessity," he proceeds to the discus- j
aion of the various measures that will
require the consideration ot both:
Houses. Calling attention to the rev
enue of the State as being of great im
portance, lie says: “The prosperity of
a State depends in a great degree on
its revenue being sufficient to meet all
needful expenses. A State whose
scrip is at a discount cannot count on
a higli degree of prosperity. Taxes may
be high, yet if assessed on equal prin
ciples, operate as a stimulant to enter
prise and industry if the revenues are I
wisely appropriated to education and j
•to the improvement of roads and riv- j
era.” Next in order is tile education |
Lof the rising generation; tvud upon .
this subject only is he perfectly sound.
With him we believe that education is j
a subject of grave import, from the j
, feet ths.t “no State in the Union is at
! present behind Arkansas in education
al provisions." He advocates the es
tablishment of common schools to the
; end that Arkansas may keep pace wifi)
other States in educational facilities.
Passing over that portion of the mes- j
.sage in which the civil rights bill is!
discussed with a mighty leaning in its
favor, we come to his views upon the
Constitutional Amendment; aud here
the Governor actually surprises us.
Hear what he says about it. “Though
not all the insurgent States could de
sire, it becomes a very grave question
for the Legislature to decide whether
any terms more favorable are likely to
be obtained by opposition, or whether
it is not the hettnr nnllev fnr flip Stnti*
to accept the proposed terms, and thus
secure the prompt reconstruction of
the State into harmonious action with
the governing States, and on an equal
Sty with them in the Union.” “Not
all the insurgent States could desire ;”
how mild, and yet what volumes is
spoken in these few words in favor of
u measure that destroys the honor of
Arkansas, insults the memory of her
noble dead, and writes infamy and dis
grace upon her brow. No, it is not all
the States could desire, nor is there in
it one feature that could be desired
by Arkansas, though the adoption
of it secured to us full ;represent
ation ; of which, wo have no guarantee.
This proposition from the Governor,;
we feel, will be instantly rejected by j
onr Legislature. Never cau that body !
of meu so disgrace themselves and j
their constituents, as to ratify the Con
stitutional Amendment. Palsied bo
the hand that introduces it, and may j
the tongue grow mute that advocates,
it. If “harmonious action with the
governing (?) States can but thus be
j secured, let us never act in harmony ;
; and if our “equalitj (t) with them in
I the tlnion is to be bought with such a
| price, In the name of honesty and in
! tegritv lot it never be paid. But what
authority has our Governor for saying j
or believing that our relations with
: the general Government will be thus
J established. Surely Forney has not
guaranteed it, nor will the oracles of
Radicalism admit it. We repeat, in
thus recommending this measure to the j
, Legislature, the Governor surprises
us, for we did think—notwithstanding j
his over-loyal proclivities—his kuowl
edge of the people’s views and deter
him. After treating at some length
(.the railroad and penitentiary question,
he closes by invoking the Divine favor
«b the workings of the Legislature
*nd asking Him to guide them in their j
labors.
The elections are over, and as was j
expected from the first indications, j
Radicalism has triumphed. The ex-,
. citement consequent -upon these elec- j
,' tions having subsided, the minds of the j
people are left free to act—act for the i
building up of their own Shite interest.
We of Arkansas have else to do than |
idly regret the results of the past. We
.have—if we would add to our prosper
ity—schools to build, railroads to con
struct, and such internal improvements
to be made as will make us prosperous j
put of the Union, and in ourselves.
Let us, therefore, turn our attention to
dliosc things which so nearly concern
ns, and see if we cannot find better
employment for the mind than the
study of the vexed political condition
of the country.
|QT The Radicals urge the Southern
States to participate in the change ofj
■ the nation’s supreme law—their high
est federal function, and urge the North
ern States to elect men to Congress who
\ declare that, even if the Southern States
join in doing so, they shall not be ad
mitted to the exercise of an inferior
federal function—the representation in i
Congress—guaranteed to them by the
supreme law. The Radical advocacy |
of the constitutionalist amendment as
a means of reunion is tlicrforc in cvery
sense, a swindle, a cheat and liae.

When Radicalism Will be Destroyed,
It is not supposed that any Conserv
ative member elect of the next Con
gress will hold his plnce unless his ma
jority is a thousand or more. The
lieaten Radical has only to appeal to
1 Stevens, whose decree, issued, through
a committee on elections, reverses that
of the people. Never was a Ubngress
deemed so corrupt, when it ts true that
no one doubts the success of any Radi
cal who may contest the scat of a Con
servative. The question of right is :
not, in the popular miud, supposed to
arise. It is simply a question of parti- ,
sansnip. And yet this Congress would !
have its powers extended to all mat-;
tors. It would have the Constitution !
so amended that States are virtually no ;
more. It would obliterate State lines
and make an oligarchy supreme. One
king is preferable—an imperialism, to
an oligarchy, a despot to the unre
stricted reign of the mob. Tf the' sys
tem of Union must, be overthrown, let 4
us have an Emperor—Grant, Sherman,
even Roast Rutlcr, rather than a mob of
politicians who would outvie the im
mortal Thirty Tyrants in outrages up- ,
on State and personal rights. ,
Each act of wrong done in, obedience j
to dictates of partisanship unsettles j
popular faith in the wisdom and jus-,]
tire of Congress. Democracy may !
consolidate Radicalism for a time by J
its unavailing efforts to re-establish its (
former monopoly of public plunder, |(
but a party, like an individual, is made j
dizzy by supremacy. Radicalism in ,
Congress will commit so many follies
and wrongs, and resort to such un
heard of means to accomplish its ends, ,
that like Democracy, having lost pub- ,
lie confidence, it too will beeugulphed, ,
and a new class of men may direct the (
destinies of the Union. There is in a ,
government, of the people a principle
by which »yils cure themselves and the i
very omnipotence end despotic power
of a party works its disintegration and
overthrow.—[Memphis Bulleu.n. ,

When the irresistible Radicals shall ■
have1 consummated all their political; 1
nionstrosiuC.15- may we not expect them j
to turn their atteii.'ion to religion ? We [
don't mean religion 01 heart, but!,
religion on the brain—that sC't ot re
igion which compels the neighbor .'IU i 1
.me hill to think as the neighbor on au- j c
;>t her hill may .dictate—that sort of re- i *
igion which shall discover disloyalty ' r
n one form of prayer, and heresy, hell- \
deserving, in another form.of worship, j (
i’he spirit that dictated the law which j e
looms ministers of the gospel to line j l
mil imprisonment for preaching with- }
ant having taken an oath to the false *
Soil of Radicalism, will pause at no i J
sutrage which may be deemed nece.3- *
«iry t o the thorough subjugation of the 11
human mind. We may look for an r
•stablished religion. We had some-j.c
thing like it during the war, and the 1
lire of the war is not allowed to abate, j
blit is kept burning. "We have recent- I
ly seen the faggots hurled upon il, and i

A Magnificent Testimonial.
It will be remetUbcred that when oar i'
distinguished fellow-citizen. Admiral !
Senimes, arrived in England, immedi- 1
ately after his brilliant combat with the i *
Kcarsagc, a number of officers of the |
British army and navy, and several of | *
the nobility wIjo were friendly to the 1
Confederate cause, determined to pro- 1
cure by subscriptions a magnificent ,1
sword for the admiral, as a testimonial 1
of their appreciation of his gallantly '
and heroic conduct as a naval eomman- '
der. The subscriptions wore limited to
a guinea oacli, and in a day or two the
entire amout, two thousand guineas,
was subscribed.
The order fordhe sword was imme
diately given and the work was long
ago completed, but the beautiful and
costly testimonial is still in England.
A citizen of Mobile, who has recently
returned from Europe, brought over
with him a most skillfully executed
photograph of both sword and scab
hard, from which wo have obtained an
idea of the exquisite workiuauship dis-j
played in their make. The blade bears 1
a suitable inscription and is ornament
ed in the highest style of the sword- ■
maker’s art. The scabbard, which is of;
gold, as is also the Lilt, or at least the 1
guard, is ornamented, not profusely,;
hut most tastefully, with devices eni-l
hlem.'ii ie of the naval orofession anil
Southern agriculture. The testimonial
is one of Which a monarch might be
proud, and is a just and well merited
tribute to the personal and professional
worth of the most distinguished of j
Confederate officers.—Mobile Register, j
