J. C. MORRILL, EBITBB.
BES ARC, ARKANSAS:
SATTT&DAY.JTTLT 6. 1861.
Abolition Seerut Agents.
The Nashville Patriot says: “The
Northern papers announce that the Ad
ministration haa ‘ special agents" in ail the
Southern States, and that the South can
take no important steps in defence of its
liberty without its being promptly reported
at headquarters in Washington. We have
no doubt this announcement is substantial
ly true, and it behooves the South to be
watchful upon this point. We have seen,
within the iast few weeks, what we took
to be specimens of this branch of Aboli
tion service in this city, and it may be of
great importance that these spies should
be attended to.-1
We have not the slightest doubt that
Arkansas is weii supplied with these ani
mals. Let them be searched out, and
tatWavaMTA* tw Imn tU*m id nea
tive, let them be dealt with in the moat
summary and least expensive manner, j
When a man ia found giving “aid and
comfort’' to an enemy who ia doing h;s
beet to destroy our lives, liberty and pro- j
perty, he deserves instant death, and it j
costs something to keep him a long time
in jail, or under surveillance. Let us;
iearn from the enemy that “war makes its
own laws,” and aet promptly when it is
necessary. Lincoln’s law is to “hang all
traitors and remove all dangerous or sus
pected persons.” It is an old saying—;
••learn from your enemy.”
--
TbadeatNew Oax.EA.ss.—The Cres-j
cent of the 26th says that there is but lit
tle talk in that city about exports or im
ports from foreign nations, and adds: j
“The blockade at the mouth of the Mis
sissippi, it appears, ia kept up by two
sloops-of-war. The receipts of bagging
and rope are prohibited in toto from Ken
tucky. It matters very little about the ar
ticle of rope, as Tennessee can furnish an
abundance of iron for hoops, which will
do well for a substitute. As regards bag
ging, the proper course to be adopted will
be to order it from Scotland, to be shipped,
of course, in British vessels. When the
month of October arrives, the British gov
ernment will undoubtedly protect its mer
cantile interests, and put bagging and
other manufactures through, as bagging
will be a most essential article to assist the
cotton trade. Kentucky may, however,:
assert its rights before that time. The
orders lor bagging Irom Scotland will have
to go forward at an early day.

Strikihq a Blow.—For the fiftieth
time within the last two months we are in
formed that General Scott ha3 so far per
fected his military arrangements that he I
will soon strike a decisive blow at the re
bels, and continue these blows until they j
are subdued. The blow he is so long
preparing may have a recoil to it, which 1
will prostrate the old General.

Agents of British and French (
houses are now in Savannah and Charles- ,
ton, soliciting orders for goods. They ^
meet the reminder that the ports are clos- 1
ed with the confident assertion that the :
goods, ii ordered, will be forthcoming. I
Guerilla War.—The agent of the '
northern associated press telegraphs from ,
Wheeling, June 25th : “Parlies who have i
come in to-night from the interior coun- I
ties represent them to be in a state guer- ‘
ilia war. Great anxiety is felt here.”

1 he citizens of Warren county,
Term., in a large and enthusiastic meet- (
ing, have requested Gov. Harris to allow ,
bis name to be used ac a candidate for re- (
election in August. They promise him <
the unanimous support of the county. i
The ship Medford has been con- !
Qcmued at Loyal,
Tie Sentiment of Maryland.
The true men of Maryland have not
been lubdued. netuier are they to be de-J
terred from uttering -heir sentiments. The
land of “Charles Carrol of Carroiton —
who affixed to hia signature on the Decla
ration of Independence, the place of his !
locality, so that the myrmidons of King ,
George might not mistake his wherea
bouts,—ha3 not been subjugated—her pa- J
triotic sons are not silenced. In the face,
and under the' guns of the abolition tyrant j
at Washington the legislature of Mary- j
land has passed the following resolutions ;
by a decided majority:
Resolved, by the General Assembly on
the Stale of Maryland, That recognizing I
our relations to the Federal Government,
we feel that while we cannot do more, we !
can do no less, than enter this our solemn
protest against said acta of the president j
of the United Slates, and declare the same j
to be gross usurpation, unjust, oppressive
tyrannical, and in utter violation af com
mon right, and of the plain provisions of
the constitutions.
2. That the right of separation from
tbfe' old Union is a right neither arising
under, nor prohibited by the constitution,
but a sovereign right independent of the
constitution, to be exercised by the several
States upon their responsibility; neither
do we believe that the federal government
has any power under the constitution to
wage war against a State far the purpose
af subjugation or conquest.
3. That prudence and policy demand
that the war now being waged shaii cease;
that, if persisted in. it will result in the de
struction of both sections, and a longer con
tinuance of it will utterly annihilate the last
hopes of a reconstruction af this Union;
tbprufhm «n» war.i rwnct». and am in faonr
of a recognition of the Southern Coated*
acy, and an acknowledgment of ita Gov
ernment.
4L That we deem the writ of habeas
carpus the great sateguard of personal li
berty, and we view with the uunoat alarm
and indignation tiie exercise of the despot
ic power that baa dared to suspend t in the
caae of John Merry man, now condned in
Fart McHenry.

Fhom the Chejo5.es Natiox.—The
Van Buren (Ark.) Press has a letter;
dated Park HiiL Cher ;icee Nat an Jana
6, in which the writer says:
Wednesday, he had an interview with
the chief, Mr. Ross. This was in every
respect, satisfactory. Mr. Ross had been
represented as a quasi-abolitionist, an en
emy to the South, and heaven know3 what
more. Capt. Pike found him tractable,
gentlemanly, and easy to deal with. It is
true he had assumed a position of neutral
ity in the war that exists, but this i3 not
for the purpose of holding aloof from tiie
South, but to preserve the nationality of
his people. He cannot prevent the en
listment of many of the Cherokees ia our
armies. There are several of them now
in Capt. Lewis’ company.
Gen. McCulloch also had an interview
with Mr. Rosa. I was not present, but >
suppose it was agreeable to both parties.
At least, I hear no complaint on our side. : 1
--
S£s“A former member of the U. S j
Congress from a Southern State recently ''
lad an interview with W. H. Seward, in
which he endeavored to disabuse his mind
bis mind of the error common at the North |
.hat there ia still a strong party in the se
eded States. Mr. Seward replied that i ■
ae was well aware of the fact that there [
ao longer ex ated any such party, but that
ue was determined to test the question 1
whether the U. S. Government could be i
jverthrown or not. I
.The same member of Congress also ;
taw Mr. Lincoln, and repeated to him ,
substantially the same statement of South- '
;rn unity he had made to Mr. Seward, to '
whicu Mr. Lincoln replied that he is well 1
iware the South is now a unit, but that (
he North had the power to crush it and i
was determined to do it.—[Richmond .
Despatch. 1
-*-♦«
Historical Parallel.—It is evident s
hat the South is prepared to make a unan- !
mous, bloody and prolonged resistance to '
he “subjugation” policy of the Republi
:ans. It is reported that Gen. Davis was £
isked, “ What if you should be defeated c
it Manassas Junction, or wherever else f
,’ou have resolved to make a desperate 1
land against invasion V' and that he re- 5
died, “There will be so few of us left af- 1
er such a defeat, that the rest wiii be a ;
natter of little consequence.” This reply, ■"
f really uttered, has a classical precedent, 6
o be found in the interview between Bru- ^
us and Cassius before the battle of Pail- r
ippi. “Either we shall be conquerors v
mrselves,” said Cassius to his patriot 1
rieud, “or we shall have no cause to fear G
hose who are so.”—[N. Y. Daily News. e
—
Past Praying For.—Bishop Gregg. S
if Texas, lias substituted the “President ^
if the Confederate States,” as a subject of
liurch prayer, in the place of the “presi- v
lent of the United States.” As a gener- n
il rule it is binding upon all good Christians v\
o “pray for their enemies,” but there is tc
io denying the fact that Old Abe is “past b
•raying for.” ‘ p
War movements ia Virginia.
A letter from Richmond, dated the 20th
instant, contains the following interesting
paragraphs:
The greatest secresy is very properly
observed by the authorities concerning
military movements, ihe strength of ttje
forces, and similar matters. But the un
bounded confidence of the people and the
troops :n our glorious president makes
them feel sure that everything be does is
for the best. The evacuation of Harper’s
Ferry, at first, took the public by surprise,
but military men united ta pronouncing it
a judicious step, and it was soon evident
that tne occupation of that place and the
reports set afloat of its impregnability were
mere ruses to attract tne enemy’s attention
to it, while tne real design oi Gen. John
ston was to give battle at a point further
up the Shenandoah Valley, nearer to Gen.
Beauregard's positions.
The almost universal opinion of mil ita
ry men here, founded on our experience
hi the recent encounters, is that the Lin
coln troops are not yet sufficiently disci
plined to act efficiently, and that they are
very poorly officered. Their movements
in bailie are unakillfuily executed and the
men too unused to fire-arms to act with
the boldness and self-confidence that dis
tinguish Southern soldiers. These fad
ings were conspicuous at Great BetheL
I had tnousrht that possibly the immense
preparations of our Government had made
money scarce with it, but I was agreeably
surprised to learn from a member of the
Cabinet that it aaa mare money than it
can find use for.
The arrangements for a continued sup
ply of arms from abroad are believed' to
be very skillfully made, and the manufac
tories of arms to he erected here and a'
Fayetteville in North Carolina, from the
Harper’s Ferry machinery, will soon be
ia active operation. Still the task of ere
atingan army to contend against an aid
established government, places oa under
many disadvantages, and the spasmodic
energy with which the Lincoln administra
tion. is endeavoring to overwhelm Virgin
ia, may give it partial success m the be
ginning, and compel us to rema a on the
Jefenaive, exhausting our foes by dispu
tiog every inch of ground. Bat we gam
in strength every day, and whatever the.
result of the summer campaign, we expect
to be vastly in the ascendant by the ap
proach of fall. By that time oar arm fac
tories will he in full operation, powder
mills erected at a great many points, oar
war department thoroughly organized,,
and our whole governmental mac ninety in
irst rate order.
This goveramenment is entl.Vy satis
fed with its foreign relations. The sywa
rn ay of England and, though in a more
tautious way, of France and Spain, ts
lonsidered a fixed fact.
A letter dated the 2Iat from the same
place, contains the following :
Manassas Junction is still threatened,
ind 1a the center of attraction. A battle
it any hour at this place would not surprise
ite country. Beauregard is irt command
md has a farce, advance and reserve, suf
icient for any emergency. Tiie advance
:ompanics of the two armies are now vrith
n sight of each ot :er, and each can mar t
ime by the beat of their enemy’s drum.—
raid is close work, but before this reaci.es
7an they may have come together, if so,
here will be a terrible Slaughter, vv heu j
lur army commences its march, I do not
hink any power on earth can sup thein
tefore reaching Washington. Scooting
parties continue to irritate the yunifee-*; ;
to day parses without one of ineir heads j
laying the forfeit of invasion.
Noble Gram — We have bai the pleaa
ire of reading the following extract of a
irivate letter fiom Georgia, and are al
owed the privilege of extending the en- j
oyrnent of it to our readers : ‘ J must tell 1
rou of a circumstance that I heard yester
lay. A grand daughter of Dr. Church, ,
if Athans, Mis3 Craig, (daughter of Col.
>aig, who served with honor in the Hex
can war) about sixteen, was at school in
Bethlehem, in Pennsylvania. It was
mown a regiment would pass through the
own on its way to Washington. Siieob
erved to some of her school-mates that
he would make a secession flag, and
vave it when the troops were passing.
Diey tried to dissuade her from it, fear
cg the consequence. She, however, made
. small one and concealed it in the folds
f her dress. The regiment came on with
iag3 flying and great rejoicings. In pass
og there was a slight pause. Miss Craig '
tepped out, waved her flag, and said
aree cheers for Jeff. Davis and the Con
sderate Slates. Not a word was spoken, j
ihe advanced nearer the troops, and with
xtended arms said, * now kill me. now 1
ill me; but remember, for every drnp of :
ay blood that is shed fifty Southerners :
rill be ready to kill you Yankees.’ The <
sachers, as soon as possible, hurried her 1
ff to her room, locked her in and pock- 1
ted the key, fearing that violence would
e offered her, but none was attempted. ’
he has wriiten to Dr. Church to brio" 1
er home.” i

Tke American Tyrant and Georg? III.
The St. Louis Republican, one of the

and children in St. Louis by the Federal
mercenaries, makes toe following sinking
paraiiel between tne acts of Lincoln m

We are disarmed and helpless—jailed in
