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. kter deliberately dissecting the weakness Davis, he asks—' - • 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 NoannOt; now be;proteeted, what mist we do e eay continue the struggle—let the last ' ma die, &e. I t differently. We ought to end the strugg and submit. But you say it is hu • frith ati . No more-than to surrender when, whipped. "e have done that often—always. when we coiiid \ do •no better. I haVe tried the expeximent twice and found it by no means foolish. Shbmission is but Surrender. We are fairly beau in the whole result and should at once s.urrenc r the point. If we don't get the In piness we enjoyed in-the old-Government, wecan get no more misery than we have felt `tTdei• Jeffers° • - But I look for peace th re. Welts. it rnauy years. Even while we ' re arraye - aguit.St.it; I find that hostile fore - in'ot midst give more protection to citize .an they had When Holmes and Hindman. • ere fire. •lt is true the Johnsons tell yo t• at Gen. Steele has imprisoned and opp esse. people here: Not a word of truth in it And they know .it is all false. In a few Months, when no more Confederate money can he 'invested, and nothing more made out of the people, - they «+ ill sneak back and claim his protection. 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 fleid f half our. territory overrun, our cities gone to wreck—people alone by the aged, the lac and halt, and women and children ; while deserted towns, and smoking ruins, and plantations abandoned and laid waste, ineet us on all sides; and anarchy and ruin. disappointment and discontent, lower over all the land.' - DISSENSIONS IN TILE Nonim. • have p.o hopcs from a diVidcd North, It Is on the surface—scarcely goes to the bottom of their politics, niuch less shaking the great masses of their determined people. Remem ber; too, that much of the South is with them. There is no division as far as fighting its is concerned. The mildest of them simply pro - .poseipeace by reconstruction. That rejected. they are to press i. 14 with redoubled energy.- Let us not, after, all our misfortunes and blunders,, construe the struggles between pol iticians for place into sympathy for ourselves. Rut how could they propose peace? Who would bring the message? To, whom would it,be delivered ? And should the propo=ition be made and - rejected, we are that much' worse off for it: We must propose petite, for .we'oiight to know when we have got enough the thing. 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 THE GREAT VIRGINIA EXPRESS LINE.
