    ADDRESS OF 1T.0N.. E. W. GANPT TO
TUE PEOPLE OF ARKANSAS. -
,Betow'we furnish extracts from the Ail
<ireis-of the Hon. E . . W. Gantt, a well
known ciiizen of Arkansas, to the people of
Ails Statei , We should like to publish the
whole -memorial if we could find space,
Mr: Gantt was an eminent Secessionist when
the war first began, was a Brigadier General
in the relic] army and twice taken prisoner.
As the deliberate.verdiet of a clear•head-
ed - man who had fairly tried Secession and
the Confederacy and found theta wanting,
we deem it most• interesting and valuable.

• WHAT SHAI,I. WE HO ?
This question naturally comes up, after all
that . has preceded. If Mr.. Davis, when he
held the lives and fortunes of many millions
in his hands, so blundered as to lose hi s op
portunity. what can we hope from him. now
that a scene of blackness, of anguish ,and
desolation 'reigns where wealth, happiraiss
Ind plenty smilcrd. If he:7.OOOW not protect
Arkansas when he coutd, but, in'stead, gave it
fiver to plunder and oppression by his pets,
what have we to•hopc now that he trembles
in 'Richmond for his own safety, and wakes
up at last to the terrible reality of his weak
ness, folly and indiscretion ? If we iccre'not
protected when we could have been, and if we

when we coiiid \ do •no better. I haVe tried
the expeximent twice and found it by no

they know .it is all false. In a few Months,

But we are Whipped—fairly beaten. •Our
Armies are melting and ruin approaches us.
Will continuing 'this struggle help us?
Every battle we might gain ought to wring
tears from the hearts of Southern - men! We
are just that lunch weaker, that much nearer
our final ruin. and sorrow and
desolation meet us whgever we turn. The
longer the struggle the more of it.
Don't let yourselves be deceived with the
hope ,that the United States will abandon the
' , struggle. They can neverdo it. They have
toiled and spent too much to see the solution
. of.the problem, and not foot up the figures.
They scarcely feel the war at home. Their
cities are -more populous and thrifty , than
ever. For every man that dies or gets killed
An battle, two emigrate to the country. Their
villttovs and towns, their fields and country,
flourish as fresh as ever. They ,could-Isink
their armies to-day, and raise new levies to
crush us, and not feel it.
How is-it with us , The last man is in the

gone to wreck—people alone by the aged, the

NEGRO "SLAVERY
I am asked if Mr. Lincoln's Emancipation
Proclamation will stand. If you continutt
the struggle, certainly. He has the physical
Aire& at his disposal to carry it out. if you
cease now, you may save all in your hands,
or compromise on gradual emancipation.
But let, I .beseech you, the negro no longer
stand in the way of the happiness and safety
of friends and kindred. -
I have recently talked with Southern
shive-holders from every State. They are
tired of negro Slavery, and I believe they
could make more clear money, and live more
peaceably, - without than With it. As for the
non-Slaveholder of the South, I honestly
thought the struggle ‘..es for =him more than
for his wealthy neighbor--:-that" to free the
negro would reduce to comparative Slavery
thi . poor white man. I tiOw regret, that
instead of a war to sustain 'Slavery, it had
not been a struggle at the ballot box to
colonize it. This will clearly be the next
struggle.
Let us, fellow-citizens. endeavor to be calm.
Let us look ilwse ,new ideas, and our novel
position; squarely in the face. We fought
for negro Slavery. We have lost. We inay
have to do without. it. The' ineonveniehee
will be great for a while. The loss heavy.
' This,' however, is already well nigh accom
plished. • Yet, behind this dark cloud is a'
silver lining. If not for us, at least . for our
children.: In the place of these bondsmen
will Comeran immense influx of people from
all'Parts of the world, bringing with them
their wealth, arts and improvementi, and
lending their talents and sinews to increase
• our aggregate wealth. Thrift and trade, and
common destiny, will bind us together. Ma
' ohinery in the hills of Arkansas will never
- berate to the music of - machinery in New-
England, and the whirl-of Georgia spindles;
will meet responsive echo upon the slopes of
far - off Pacific. Protective tariffs, if
needed, will stretch in their influences froni
the Lakes to the Gulf, and • from ocean to
. ocean; bearing alike, at last, equally upon
A.rkarisian and Vermonter; and upon Geor
gian andTalifornian. Difference of section
and local sentiment will wear away and be
forgotten; and the next generation - be more
homogenous and united than any since the
days of the Revolution. And the descend
ants-of these bloody times will read, with as
much pride and little jealousy of these battles
, of their fathers, as the English and Scotch
laescendants. of the heroes of Flodden-field,
read `of their ancestral achievements 'in the
glowing lines of Scott, - or, as the descendants
of highland and lowland chiefs, allusions to
their fathers' conflicts in the simple strains of
the rustic Thirns. . .
Let. us live in hope, my grief-stricken
brother, that the day is tot far diStant - whvn
Arkansas will rise from the ashes of her
desolation to start on a path of higer destiny
than ivith negro Slavery she ever could have
reached; while- the reunited .Government.
freed from this cankering sore, will be more
vigorous-, and powerful, and more thrifty.
opulent and happy than though the scourge
of war, had never desolated her fields, or made
sorrowful her hearthstones!
The serener we lay down our arms and
quit this hopeless struggle, the sooner our
days of prosperity will return.
WHY I lIESITATILT^TrIg .SITUATION-THE
REIIEDY
I hesitated long, my fellow-citizens, before
I determined to issue this address. I dislike
to be abused and slandered. But; more than
all, dislike to live under a cloud with those
friends who have not yet reached my . stand
point. And, besides, all I possess is in the
Confederate lines. Their - leaders will de
prive my family of slaves,, home, rroperty—
debts due me—in a word, reduce them from
competence and nise to penury. Aside from
what I have inside the Confederate lines, I
could not pay— for the paper this address is
written upon. , But it may all go. Did I
desire future promotion, and could bring my
conscience to it, I would do like the Johnson s
safe from bullets and hardships themselves;
they assist in holding you on to this hopeless
and ruinous struggle, and, at the end of the
conflict, will come back and say, "I staid
with you to the last! Honor me and mine !",
God deliver rue from such traitors to human-
ity. and -to the interests of our bleeding peo
ple! To Me the path of duty is plain. _lt is
to lend my feeble. aid to stop this useless effu,
sion -of blood. And, though it' beggar my
family, and leave me no ray of hope for the
future. I shall follow it. ,
. I have witnessed the: desolution of the
Southern States from one end to the other.
This hopeless struggle but widens, it. Each
day makes new graves, new orphans, an'd"
new mourners ! Eaeh hour flings into this
dreadful whirlpool more of wrecked hopes.
broken fortunes and anguished hearts! The
rich have mostly fallen. The
.poor have
drank deep of the cup of sorrow, while surely,
and not slowly, the tide of ruin, in its resist
less surge, sweeps toward the middleelasses !
o.
ionger ? Had he twice our resources h&
would still fail. With success he would be a
despot. But the whale thing is I tunibling to
pieces. Soldiers are -leaving diigusted and
disheartened, and whale _States - have gone
'back to their homein the National galaxy.
Maryland and Delaware will never again be
shaken. Kentucky has intrenehed herself in
the Union, behind a wall of bayonets in the
hands of her own sturdy sons. Missouri is
as firmly set in-the National galaxy as Mas
sachusetts. Tennessee, tempest-tossed and
bol yen,' under the guide of librgreat pilot,
steers fur her old mooring, and will be safely
;anchored before the leaves fall ; while the
rays alight from the old - North State, bash
ing out fitfully from her darkneis across the
troubled waves, shows that she! stirs, is not
lust, but is struggling to rejoin her sisters.
None of these States will ever join the South
again. Then, t h crippled armies—with
devastated fields—with desolate cities—with
disheartened soldiers, and worse than all, with
weak and corrupt lead rs,-what hope is left
to the few remaining States, but especially to
poor oppressed and down-trodden Arkansas?
None ! Better bet-our brothers home while
they arereft - to us. Open the way for the
return of husbands, fathers and sons. and
bind up the broken links of the old Union.
'The people must act to do.this. - I tell you
now, in grief and pain, that the leaders don't
care for your blood. Your sufferings move
them not. The tears and wails of your an•
guished and bereaved ones fall on hearts of
flint! While they can make a dollar or
wear an epaulette, they are content. Finally,
with a grief stricken and Sorrowful heart, I
implore mothers,' sisters, wives and daught
ers to assist, by all their arts' ~in saving their
loved ones from this terrible.seourge ere ruin
overtakes you and them irretrievably!
While God gives me strength, daunted by
no peril, and swerved by no consideration of
self, I shall give you ny_feeble aid 1
