RECONSTRUCTION IN ARKANSAS.——The Little Rock Gazette thus describes the sensible course pursued by the people of Arkansas, in adjusting their organic law to ruling circumstances:
We have reason to congratulate ourselves upon the fortunate political condition of our state with regard to the reconstruction and readmission, with our rights, into the Union.
The present Government, organized during the war, of which his Excellency Isaac Murphy is the Chief Executive, has one merit not often found in governments established under such auspices and in such turbulent times. Its constitution is wholly free from all the passions and prejudices which are apt to possess the hearts of those who shape the policy of government, clouding the intellect and tempting them to introduce amongst fundamental principles special legislation against individuals and parties, as has been done in Missouri.
The very want of deliberation, and, as we honestly believe lack of statesmanlike ability amongst the members of the convention, has preserved them against such careless blunders as occurred in [[illegible]], where so grave a matter as the elective franchise was omitted wholly from the constitution and committed to the determination of the Legislature. The haste with which they acted, and a sensible distrust of their own ability, resulted in the highest wisdom.——The [[illegible]] thing done was exactly the very best that could be. They took the old constitution, cut out the slavery clauses, and made some amendments which experience had shown to be necessary. This they presented to the people, and this we have now before us as a basis of organization.
THE NEW GOSPEL ACCORDING TO ST. BEECHER. The Hartford, Ct., Press publishes the following extract from the Fourth of July preachment of Parson Beecher:
"We are going to have religion and a true Gospel, down South. They have had a false Gospel——one that took with the strong against the weak. Now we will have a pure Gospel——one that begins with love to God and love to man. You may send your wares and merchandize down there, but you can't send your religion. Fact is, you can't spare it from home. It is not an article of export. It is a plant of slow growth. You can't go down South and let out civilization by the job, and intelligence by the contract. It will take time. The mill will grind out some flour by and by. The whites down there, so lazy, must learn to work. They won't stir till kicked by hunger. I have seen them in Charleston, where I could not have walked ten years ago. I think the question is, what will become of the whites? The blacks are kings and princes compared with the white trash. I don't know what they will do; the best thing for most of them to do is to die. I hope they will stand some chance in the next world——they haven't a ghost of a chance in this."
THE ATLANTIC TELEGRAPH CHARGES.——From the official statement of the Atlantic Telegraph Company's tariff, it would naturally be inferred that a dispatch of twenty words might be sent over the line from New York to London for twenty pounds sterling or one hundred dollars in gold. Just let us apply the Company's scale and see what sort of a dispatch we can send to London for twenty pounds sterling. Take the following message:
Richard Smith, Langham Hotel, Portman-place, London England.
New York, July 19, 1865.
Go it.
JOHN SMITH.
This, it will be admitted, is brief enough, if it is not very explicit. In fact, we don't know that anything briefer could be intelligible. Now what does it take, then, to send such a message to London? Exactly twenty-two pounds sterling, or one hundred and ten dollars in gold, or one hundred and fifty-six dollars in greenbacks. If Richard Smith's address, with the date of the dispatch and the name of the sender, alone were sent over the wires, the charge would be $106. This may be all right. But what use is there in the Company's professing to establish a minimum charge of £20 sterling when they are to charge more than that for merely asking in the date and address of a message?——N. Y. Times.
West Tennessee Crops.——The crops in West Tennessee are reported universally fine. The yield of wheat was more than an average one. Oats have been harvested and the crop is heavier than for many years. Corn is coming on finely, and cotton looks as promising as the planter can desire. The country abounds in all kinds of fruit, peaches and apples in particular. The only want felt among the planters is labor.
The crops in Ireland are reported from all quarters to be in a satisfactory condition. Potatoes, hay, wheat, flax and oats are all in a forward state and the most beautiful weather continues throughout the island.
The Africa's Mail.
The mails by the steamship Africa bringing papers and correspondence to the 9th, reached this city last night. A telegraphic summary of the Africa's news was published in The World on Thursday,——N. Y. World.
THE DISSOLUTION OF PARLIAMENT——THE QUEEN'S MESSAGE IN FULL.
My Lords and Gentlemen:
We are commanded by her majesty to release you from further attendance in Parliament, and, at the same time to convey to you her majesty's acknowledgments for the zeal and assiduity with which you have applied yourselves to the discharge of your duties in the session now brought to a close.
We are further commanded to inform you that, as the present Parliament has now so nearly lasted the period assigned by law for the duration of parliaments that you could not enter another yearly session with advantage to the public interest, it is her Majesty's intention immediately to dissolve the present Parliament, and to issue writs for the calling of a new one.
But her Majesty cannot take leave of you without commanding us to express to you her Majesty's deep sense of the zeal and public spirit which, during the six years of your existence as a Parliament, you have constantly displayed in the discharge of important functions, and tendering to you her Majesty's warm acknowledgments for the many good measures which you have submitted for her acceptance and which have greatly conduced to the diminution of the public burdens, and to the encouragement of industry, to the increase of the wealth, and to the promotion of the welfare and happiness of her majesty's people.
We are commanded to inform you that her Majesty's relations with foreign powers are friendly and satisfactory, and she trusts that there are no questions pending which are likely to lead to any disturbance of the peace of Europe.
Her Majesty rejoices that the civil war in North America has ended, and she trusts that the evils caused by that long conflict may be repaired, and that prosperity may be restored in the States which have suffered from the contest.
Her Majesty regrets that the conferences and communications between her Majesty's North American provinces on the subject of the union of these provinces in a confederation have not yet led to a satisfactory result. Such a union would afford additional strength to those provinces, and give facilities for many internal improvements. Her Majesty has received gratifying assurances of the devoted loyalty of her North American subjects.
Her Majesty rejoices at the continued tranquility and increasing prosperity of her Indian dominions, and she trusts that the large supply which those territories will afford of the raw material of manufacturing industry, together with the termination of the Civil War in the United States of North America, will prevent the recurrence of the distress which long prevailed among the manufacturing population of some of the northern counties.
Gentlemen of the House of Commons:
Her majesty commands us to convey to you her warm acknowledgements for the liberal supplies which you have granted to her majesty for the service of the present year, and towards the permanent defense of her majesty's dockyards and arsenals.
The commercial treaty which her majesty has recently concluded with Prussia and the other states composing the German Commercial Union has, by her majesty's commands, been laid before you. Her majesty trusts that this treaty will contribute to the developement of commercial relations between this country and Germany, and will promote the interests of the several countries which are parties to it.
Her majesty commands us to assure you that her attention will continue to be directed to all such measures as may be calculated to extend and place on a sound footing the trade between her majesty's dominions and foreign countries.
My lords and gentlemen, her majesty has given her cordial assent to many measures of public usefulness, the result of your labors in the session now brought to a close.
The act for rendering the expenses incurred for the support of the poor chargeable upon the whole of a union instead of being confined to separate parties, will diminish the hardship inflicted upon the laboring poor by reason of removals from parish to parish.
The Partnership Amendment Act will tend to encourage the profitable enjoyment of capital.
The courts of justice buildings and concentration acts will, it is hoped, lessen the expense and shorten the duration of legal proceedings.
The clerical subscription act, founded on the recommendation of a royal commission, will remove objections which have been felt to the number and variety of the forms of subscription and declaration hitherto required of the clergy.
The management and discipline of prisons will be improved by the act for the consolidation and amendment of the laws on that subject.
The county court equitable jurisdiction act will give a useful extention to the local administration of justice.
The act for consolidating the comptrollership of the exchequer with the board of audit, will tend to increase the efficiency of the arrangements for auditing the public accounts.
The act for establishing the record of titles in Ireland, will render more easy and secure the transfer of land.
The act for amending the laws which govern the constabulary force in Ireland, will tend to prevent the reentrance of such disorders as happened last year at Belfast.
THE PROCLAMATION OF THE QUEEN.——BY THE QUEEN——A PROCLAMATION FOR DISSOLVING THE PRESENT PARLIAMENT AND DECLARING THE CALLING OF ANOTHER——VICTORIA, R.
WHEREAS, We have thought us, by and with the advice of our privy council, to dissolve this present Parliament, which stands prorogued to Wednesday, the 12th day of July inst., we do for that end publish this our royal proclamation, and do hereby dissolve the said Parliament accordingly, and the Lords, spiritual and temporal, and the knights, citizens and burgesses, and the commissioners for shires and burgesses of the House of Commons are discharged from their meeting and attendance on the said Wednesday, the 12th day of July inst.; and we being desirous and resolved as soon as may be to meet our people, and to have their advice in Parliament, do hereby make known to all our loving subjects our will and pleasure to call a new Parliament: and do hereby further declare that, with the advice of our Privy Council, we have given order that our Chancellor of that part of the United Kingdom called Great Britain and our Chancellor of Ireland do respectively, upon notice thereof, forthwith issue out writs, in due form, and according to law, for calling a new Parliament; and we do hereby, also, by this our royal proclamation, under our great seal of our United Kingdom, require writs to be forthwith issued accordingly by our said Chancellors, respectively, for causing the lords spiritual, and temporal, and commons who are to serve in the said Parliament to be duly returned to, and give their attendance in our said Parliament: which writs are to be returnable on Tuesday, the fifteenth day of August next.
Given at our court at Windsor, this sixth day of July, in the year of our Lord one thousand eight hundred and sixty-five, and in the twenty-ninth year of our reign.
God save the Queen.
THE ELECTIONS——LORD PALMERSTON'S ADDRESS TO HIS CONSTITUENTS.
94 PICCADILLY, July 5, 1865.
Gentlemen: Parliament having been dissolved, fresh elections will immediately take place, and I beg to solicit from you a renewal of that confidence with which you have honored me during seven successive Parliaments.
If I were now addressing you for the first time, it might be necessary for me to dilate upon the future; but I think I may, with propriety, found my appeal for the continuance of your favor upon a reference to the past, and to the results of the course pursued by the government of which, during the last six years, I have had the honor of being a member.
During those six years, notwithstanding the pressure of three bad seasons on Ireland and the severe distress which prevailed in some of the manufacturing districts in consequence of the great dimunition in the supply of cotton from North America, the United Kingdom as a whole has enjoyed a remarkable degree of progressive prosperity. Peace has been preserved with foreign nations, and this country has been exempt from the exertions and sacrifices which within that period other countries have been required to make. Additional freedom has been given to the employment of capital and to the exercise of productive industry; trade with foreign countries has been relieved from many obstructions, while new and important channels of commerce have been opened in distant parts of the globe. The result has been that the wealth of the United Kingdom has been rapidly increased, and though great reductions of taxation have been made, and some diminution has been effected in the national debt, the revenue has always been sufficient to provide for the public expenditure and to maintain in efficiency those national defences, naval and military, which are to every country among the best securities for peace. The present time is remarkable for the progressive application of the results of science to the operations of war both by and and by water, and this country has not in such matters lagged behind the other great powers of the world. Nor has our colonial administration been less successful. The population of our North American provinces are devotedly loyal and attached to connection with this country; and India, no longer the scene of insurrections and rebellion, is making rapid strides in civilization and general prosperity.
But the six years' period, in these respects so happy, was doomed to witness a calamity which plunged the whole nation into grief while the loss of the Prince Consort will forever be recorded among the great domestic misfortunes of the country, the universal sorrow which that loss occasioned will at least testify that the nation duly appreciated the high and admirable qualities of the prince whom they mourn.
On the other hand, a bright gleam of hope for the future has cleared the land by the fortunate and happy marriage of the Prince of Wales and the birth of two royal princes.
How long the ministry of which I have the honor to be a member may continue to direct the affairs of this great nation must depend on the will of the Parliament now about to be elected, but I think I may be allowed to say for myself and my colleagues that a just judgment of our past administration will entitle us to the same measure of good will which has been extended to us by the Parliament now dissolved.
In the meantime I again respectfully and earnestly solicit from you a continuation of that confidence which for so many years, has been to me a proud and honorable distinction.
I have the honor to be, gentlemen, your most obliged and obedient servant,
PALMERSTON.
MISSISSIPPI POLITICS.——We imagine that the Mississippi State Convention, which is shortly to assemble, will be peculiarly complexioned politically.
The Vicksburg Herald seems to entertain serious misgivings concerning the action of the convention. On the 31st, the Herald contains the following:
The Views of Delegates to the State Convention.——If the delegates elected to the State Convention go there with the views expressed by the Hinds county candidates, as stated in published cards, there is no hope of Mississippi being relieved of military rule. The people had as well make up their minds to stand it a while longer. We take it that President Johnson and the United States Congress do not design re establishing the "Confederate States," and hence come to the conclusion that until Mississippi is ready to become a cordial member of the Union, recognizing the equality of the citizens of other States, there is no hope of her being admitted into the equality of the Union.
What the "views" are to which the Herald refers, may be inferred from the following extract from the Card of one of the candidates. He is discussing the question of the illegality of the call for a convention:
In considering the question, it is necessary to keep in view the fact that the State and the people are now under the control of military authority. It is true that there is a quasi civil government, under the administration of a gentleman every way acceptable to the people, but that government is unknown to the constitution and laws of the State, is appointed by and represents the purposes and will of the Federal power, and is therefore inconsistent with and repugnant to every principle of constitutional liberty as understood and heretofore practiced in this country.
The idea which I wish to convey is, that by the disastrous result of the struggle which has just terminated, we remain this day without the power of enforcing one single one of the inalienable rights which we have inherited from our ancestors, and which belong to us as members of the Federal Government, are recognized and secured in its constitution. What is more, we shall remain in this condition, without any hope of relief, until a convention of our people shall so amend the present constitution of the State as to make it acceptable to the central power. Upon doing this, and not before, we are told we may resume our place in the Union, and thus regain such of our rights as members thereof as have not been lost in the storm of civil war.
THE COTTON CROP IN MISSISSIPPI.——New York July 17,——A private letter from a well informed and intelligent gentleman states there will not be more than 25,000 bales of cotton raised in Mississippi the present year.
The Worcester Spy says the niece of the lady of Rear-Admiral Dupont, daughter of Commodore Shubrick, United States Navy, is the Superior of the Convent of Mercy in that city.
Gov. Fenton, of New York, is quite ill, and fears are entertained that he will not recover. Three Governors are now seriously ill——Fenton, of New York, Brough, of Ohio, and Morton, of Indiana.
