NATURAL AOVANTAUK8.
AND
Messrs. Editori : Permit ma to
lay buforoyourrvidori a brief descrip
tion of tbo great dvantse nd mate
rial resources tbat prasotUod thcinsolros
to my observation in the State of Ar-
ianaaa.'Vnroutrb which Slate 1 traveled
to som extent during the past Winter.
Taking everything into consideration,
1 find mora natural advantage in
Arkansas lor the common laborer, the
agriculturist', the capitalist, the artisan,
tbe miner and the mechanic, thun any
other western or southwestern State.
Tbgso who seek to roako a living by
following agricultural pursuits will find
in most localities iu tbo Stato soil
unsurpassed in fertility, and a climate
uuequilod in mildness. Outdoor work
can be performed during every
month of the year. I find, after
careful Investigation, tbat blighting
droughts and grasshopper plagues are
uuknown within tbe State. With
ordinary Industry and care, anyone,
no matter how poor, can make a com-
fortable living in Arkansas. Lands
are cheap and bettor for their class
tban in any other State , in the Union,
and no farmer there need be without a
home of bis own.
Tbo man who knows himself will
endeavor to perform his purt in every
rank and station of life in which Provi
dence has placed him. Hence, every
ono Booking a now home will promelo
his best intercuts and wollkro by care
fully looking into the natural advan
tages of climate, soil, and general mato
rial resources of tbo locality where he
concludes to cast his lot in life.
In the first place, fruit is grown in
great variety and in the greatest per
fection. To make particular mention :
Washington and Benton counties are
noted tor their fine fruits of all kinds,
and apples are a never-failing crop. .
This is a natural peach country.
Tbey grow largo, are well flavored,
and need no special care. Pigs do well
here, and are raised as large as they
do in Louisiana. Plums, pears, quinces
and cherries all thrive and do well.
Vegetables of nearly every variety
grow bore to perfection. Cabbage,
potatoes (sweot and Irish), turnips,
peas, beets, beans, onions, cucumbers,
radishes, and every variety is produced
in abundance. Two crops of the above
can be raised annually. In this climate
both fruit trees and vines produce
abundantly and ripen tbe fruit in tbe
greatest perfection. It might seem
incredible to our northern fjiends, yet
I am informed by all citizens that
the fruit crop of Arkansas has not been
a failure but once in thirty years. I
find that all kinds of fruit and vegeta
bles mature and are ready for market
from six to eight weeks earlier than in
the latitude of St. Louis.
Stock-raising, owing to the climato,
unfailing water and wide grass range,
possesses superior advantages, and is a
branch of industry which has already
become an extensive interest. The
native grasses of Arkansas include
thirty -five varieties and all grow luxuri
antly. In moat portions of the State
cattle, horses, sheep and mules thrive
and keep fat the entiro rear without
food or care from the owner.
I can invite the ambitious hunter to
Arkansas, to enjoy tbe excitement of
bunting deer, which are abundant in
many parts of the State ; or, if he
would prefer bears and panthers, tbe
western portion of tbe State will fur
nish ample opportunity. I found tbat
game was very plenty, and had some
experience among the bear, deer, and
panther, in the Ozark mountains. A
party of ui were out two days, and
killed five bears, seven doer, one wild-
cat, and bad game enough to make as
much as four horses could baul a dis
tance of twenty-five miles to Hot
Springs. I would like to give tbe loci
dents of tbisbunt more fully, butspace
ill not permit. In season, venison Is
cheaper than beef in the market of
Little Rock, and bear steak is by no
moans uncommon.
Arkansas, I find, has more navigable
streams tban any State in tbe Union
St. Frances river rises in southeastern
Missouri ; White river, Black river and
Arkansas river flow through the centre
of the State and are navigable tbe en
tire distance through its limits ; Oua
chita river rises in Polk county,
and Is navigable at least 250 miles ;
Saline river,empty ing into tbe Ouachita
in Union county, is navigable for 100
miles. Little river, emptying into the
Red river, runs through the southwest
ern corner of the State. Thus it will
be seen tbat of tbe seventy-four coun.
ties In this Stato, nearly every one Is
watered by streams, each navigable in
its course through different counties
from 75 to 400 miles, making, with
their branches, a navigable highway
within tbe State ot over 3,000 miles.
CLIMATE.
1 find tbe agricultural advantages of
Arkansas are greatly enhanced by the
leading characteristics of the country.
Tbe southern and the eastern parts ol
the State are tbe lowest. Thence the
country rises to tbe northwest, attain
ing an average altitude in the Oiark
mountains of about 2,000 feet above
tbe sea. Tbe rainfall, which is about
sixty Inches in tbe country bordering
on tbe Mississippi, falls off toward tbe
west to about forty five Inohes, on (be
bonier of the Indian Territory. The
altitudo and rainfall have thus such
modifying influence on tbe climate and
seasons as to give in three and one-balf
degrees of latitudo all tbe valuble pro
ductions of fully ten degrees. We find
greater differences exist in tbe climate
of countries in the same latitude. TMs
may be seen at a gUnre in Ark annas.
Tbo Ozark mountains shelter the vsl
Icy from th oold winds of tbe north.
The Arkansas river, rising in tbe Rocky
mountains, passe across th broad
western plains, swept by the dry trade
winds of tbe Gulf of Mexico, before it
enter tbe State, and thus modifies
tbe climate in Winter In tbe same
manner tbat tbe river La Plata affects
tbe climate of Buenos Arm, or afford
ing tbe Ram climnto that tbe moun
tain giv to Italy.
RAILROAD. 1
Th LilO Hoc. & Port Smith, and
in Iron Mountain RnNmaila ml
tb Iron Mountain Railroad run'sofUa or conceal a! BiaanDoa and
through the State, the latter coming'
in at the northeastern and going out
at the southwestern corners of the
State. The Iron Mountain Railroad
Company has on sale 2,000,000 acre or
land on the lino of their mad, ranging
jin price from 12.50 to 110 per acre.
C4lo(i: Tkdw r.,-if !.:::!e RocJs,

tion. COTTON.
" Cotton is King," and one of the
groat staples. Tbo crop for 1877 was
about 1,000,000 bales of 600 pounds
each. 1 be export value of the cotton
crop alone is over 1100 to every inhabi
tant in the Slate. Arkansas now
stands flint as a cotton produciug Stato.
The State in 18V 7 bad 1,100,000 sores
in cotton, and gathered 1,000,000 bales.
She spent In cultivation, 14,200,000 ;
the amount received by tbe people of
tbe State for the cotton crop was
$5,800,000.
LITTLE ROCK.
This beautiful little city, the Capital,
is located near the oontre of tho State,
on tho southeast bank of the Arkansas
river, about 300 miles above its mouth.
It is built upon a bed ol rocks, and is
elevated some forty or fifty feet above
the river. The situation of the city is
dry aod remarkably healthful. The
population in 1860 was about 4,000 or
5,000 ; increased to 12,000 in 1870, and
is now over 20,000, Its railroad facili
ties places the city in intimate com
munication with St. Louis, Memphis,
the Indian Territory and Northern
Texas. A marked advancement is be
ing made in improvements, and the
population is rapidly increasing. Tbe
city at once presents to the stranger
an air of brisk and lively business, com
mercial enterprise and general pros
perity. Tbe State and public buildings
are generally good structures ; the
schools and academies are flourishing,
and tbe newspapers are spicy and en
terpising. Tbe many handsome pri
vate residences, wido streets, spacious
grounds and gardens, and tbe profusion
of shade trees and shrubbery, give the
city a very beautiful and picturesque
appearance. The inhabitants are gen
erally very genorous and hospitable
and, in all my experience, I have never
found people more cordial.
HOT SPRINGS.
Tbe Hot Springs of Arksnsas are
among tho wonders of tbo Continent.
Tbey are situated about 75 miles south
east of Little Rock, and 4-10 miles south
west of St. Louis. 1 counted fifty-eight
springs, ranging in temperature from
93 lo 150 degrees (Fahrenheit). They
discharge ovor 700,000 gallons of water
daily, sufficient in quantity to accom
modate, with delightful bathing, 12,000
bathers every day. This natural earth
heated water holds iu its solution valu
able mineral constituents. Clear, taste
less, inodorous, it pours forth from the
novaculite ridge as pure and sparkling
as tbe pellucid Neva. Tbe various
springs are qualitatively allied not
holding In solution, or Ireighted with
too much abusivo mineral and tbey
are free from all noxious gases. It is
believed tbat the properties of tbe
water, especially in the treatment of
chronic blood diseases, are nnequaled.
Being located between two mountains,
Hot Springs resembles an oil town
one principal street being the avenue
through the narrow pass between the
mountains. A large number of visitors
arrive daily, who are kindly treated
and well-cared for, and the number is
constantly increasing.
Tin sra.
Timber in the forests of Arkansas
has a wealth unknown elsewhere.
There are no less tban eightoen species
of oak, ten of walnut and hickory, ash
of varioua kinds, locust of both kinds,
wbile pecan, sycamore, cypress, wild
cherry of immense size, mulberry,
black and sweet gum, basswood, plno,
maple, and cedar, are not only found,
but abound in quantity and quality
equal to any desire, end are admirably
adapted to all kinds of manufacturing
purpose. Yellow pine is very fine,
and, in many places where we made an
estimate of the lumber that could be
obtained from one acre ol land, found
it would average about 600,000 feet to
tko acre. This land can be had at
12.60 per aero'; and there i a good
opportunity to get th lumber to mar
ket by water and ralf.
MINERALS.
Tbe grtmi mittnrni maoaruan are of
special interest to all sister Stutcs,
especially when we take into considera
tion the various kinds, their generally
rich quality and enormous quantity.
Here are magnetic, hematite, specular,
carbonate, and other varieties of iron
ore ; lead, antimony, sink, coal, manga
nese, and associate metals, together
with marblo, gypsum, salt, kaolin, stone,
slate, limestone, granite and nitre
earth. The coal field of the State em
brace an estimated area of 12,000
square mile ; and in tbe valley of tbe
Arkansas river, where the most coal
mining has been carried on, tb beds
ar from lour to nine feet in thick
This coal t similar in structure and
appearance to tbe Lykens Valley coal
ot Pennsylvania, and its quality by
analysis is very similar to that famous
fool, and is pronounced fine for manu
facturing purposes.
I have given the outlines and a brief
description of my general investigation
while in Arkansas.
I remain your humble servant,

A MELA NCBOLY WA IL.
MOTION TO ABOLISH TH! 22D OF riDKU
ART TUB FATHER Of BIS COUNTRY
AND WHAT BIB FOSTER ITT DO
AIP DO NOT OWE II1X.
Tbe editor of the New York Timet
was so highly offended at tbe passage
ot tb Bilver Bill tbat he nearly went
into spasms over the affair, but finally
eased np in this wsy over Washington's
birthday :
" Tbe weather showed a good deul
of delicate consideration yesterday in
releasing us from our fancied obligations
to oelobralo the birthday of Georgo
Washington. Tbe force of custom
would, doubtless, have led us to take
notice of tbe day bad not the weather
interfered, and w should be really
grateful tbat w bav been spared tbe
commission of so manifest an absurdity.
It L very certain that tbe people
of the groat free West bav no reason
to bold in honor tbe character or career
of Wssblnglon. Tbey know all about
bim, and t would b ftaolos for any of
hi admirers if such Otero' btf te
crimes, (icorgo Washington was a
loathsome capitalist, who never so far
as is known, did a day's work in his
whole life. History may bo safely
challenged to mention a single occasion
on which Wlihiton dug ditches, laid
ewer-iiK.n, carried bricks and nun lur,
or.Tk-ni..t, a imilji.jHjinscquontly,
lurincr
nous aristocrat, who received during
bis early life a magnificent salary lor
merely wearing a General's uniform,
and who, In bis latter days, notoriously
and shamelessly lived on the Interost
of his money. He not only had money
in tbe bank, but bo reached the lowest
depths of scoundrclism as a holder of
bonds and mortuages.. lie was that
enemy of tbe human race, a creditor,
and with the cold. blooded selfishness
ot a Sbylock, be expected that bis
debtors would pay bim tboir debts
Wbile many of bis fullow-citisens, men
who earned their bread by bard work,
lived In log cabins on tbe westorn prai
ries, Washington lived in a fine man
sion on the bunks of tbo Potomac, nud
bad tbe effrontery to pretend tbat be
bad a right to bis home merely because
he bad paid for it.
"Furthermore, this Father of our
Country was a gentleman, and a man
of intelligence and culture. We have
the authority ot many eminent western
statesmen for asserting that next to
a Shyloek, an Intelligent and cultured
gentleman deserves the contempt and
hatred of American citizens, lie bad
some littlo knowledge of political
economy, and he was an unblushing
advocate of honesty. During bis entire
public llfo ho nover improved a single
opportunity for cheating bis creditors,
and be never once proposed to cheat
the creditors of tbe nation. These
charges aro made deliberately and witb
a lull sense ot their enormity. If Wash
ington's admirers of whom it Is under
stood that a few still survive, chiefly in
tho F.astern Slates can successfully
repel these charges, let them do so. If
they cannot, let tbem ceaso to ask en
terprising freemen whoso representa
tives have just passed the Silver Bill
to affect reverence for the memory of
this weak and spiritless wretch. Whilo
the West produces such noblo States
men as Matthews, Ewing, and Bland,
it is as impudent as it is silly to ask tbe
constituents of those great men to
stultify themselves by showing respect
to tho memory of one who was a per
sonification of all that the West regards
as hateful add revolting;.
" If the West has a right to despise
the character of Washington, woof tbe
East have, in our turn, no reason to
show any gratitude for bis alleged pub
lio services. There was a time when
it seemed as if Washington, on secur
ing tbe independence of this country,
had conferred upon ns a substantial
benefit, but the Eastern Stales can no
longer boast of tholr indopendonce.
Washington released us from the rulo
of Great Britain, but tbe final result
has been our subjection to the rule of
tbe West Already, western newspa
pers taunt us with our bolplessness to
resist tho demands of western repudi
ators, and wostern statesmen threaten
us with measures in comparison with
which the Silver Bill is a matter ot
slight consequence. In Congress, whore
the Southern slaveholder once cracked
tho plantation whip, the Western dema
rouuo now fits his familiar pii(-roke to
our helpless necks. It is foolish for us
to Ignoro the truth which il r. Iniralls
so plainly parades before us. We nave
exchanged tbe rulo of th stupid and
honest Georire III. for the rale of tbe
iirnorant and dishonest Western repu
diator. We must suffer from bis crazy
legislation and bear tbe shame of bis
impudent dishonesty. Ut course, Wash
inifton could foresee inat this was to be
the result of the war through which
he suceossiuiiy lea the soldiers ot Mew
England, Now York and New Jersey ;
but now that we have been taught tbat
we are the bond slave of the West,
there is room to qnostion whether, after
all, we owe any great debt of gratitude
to the neroni the Kevolution. Let us,
then, cease to perpetrate tho idle mock
ery of hoisting on Washington's birth
day the flag of repudiation. The West
has avowed tne conviction that tbe
firinciples which governed Waahinton'a
ife wereltbose of a fool and a Shyloek.
The eastern Htates nave discovered
that tbe independence which Washing
ton gave them has vanished, and tbat
tbey bold their property and their
honor at the caprice ot the West. For
Indiana to honor Washington is an
absurdity for New York to celebrate
bis birthday is a mockery. It is time
to blot th Twenty-second day of Feb.
ruary out of the American calendar."
LET'S II A CK THE ORIGINAL
RETURNS.
All accounts agree, tbat Mr. Hayes
ana all the visiting statesmen were de
lighted at the decision of the Supren e
Uourt ol Louisiana. Tbey ran around
and congratulated each other, and
shook bands, and said in a manner if
not in words, " At last wo are safe."
But il the logic of the strange docision
of th Court be sevorely carried out it
tends more to unsettle tbe title of Mr.
Hayes tban even the conviction of An
derson and Wells. Tbe Court decides
tbat tbe technical crime of forgery was
not committed, because " tbe document
ottered was a ' consolidated statement
certified by tbe Register of voters, and
not tbe 1 original returns ; ' and tho
statute of our Slate does not attach
much important.) to a consolidated
statement. Tbe original returns not
being altered would not change the
result ol an election and interfere with
tbe interest of the people.'' This, if
sound law, renders the work of the
Koturning Board nugatory ; the " con
solidated statement " is a nullity and
original returns are still in Court, and
may be canvassed de novo ; and the'
persons tru ly elected may be so declared.
The decision it a two-edged sword. If
it rescues tbe Returning Board from
tbe charge of fergery by declaring its
work to be of no effect, then tbe work
of canvassing the vote ought to be
done over again. Tbe Court says dis
tinctly, " If every consolidated return
were forged, and the Returning Board
complied with the law, end made their
statements from the Commissioners' re
turns no injury could result. It is th
essence of this crime, tbat It should be
committed by a public officer and on a
document which would change tbe re
sult of tho eloclion. This was not dons."
Now it wss on th consolidated state
ments that Packard and tb Hayes
electors wore counted in. The Return
ing Board, in the exorcise of its powers
under tbe ilatut which created it
made np its statement, throwing out
"original returns when tbey stood in
thoir way, and adding In vote that
never bad been polled. The Court
says that this falsification is not forgery.
Decease it uoos not touch the original
returns. For the same reason, we pre
sume, the certification of them under
oath dors not constitute a technical
perjury. Now, since tbe consolidated
statements upon which Mr. Hay was
counted in aro to far a nullity that
their falsification under oath will not
support a oriminal prosecution, let the
original returns be canvassed in Court,
ana hit nr. uaye aortv all tb com
fort tbat b can from the pew count.
