Bill Arp Addresses Artemus Ward.
I R me, Ga . September 1, 1865.
. Arttmus Ward, Showman : '
gIB Tbensun I write to you ia partickler are
skaus ycu ftre aLcnt ai th man I know in all
bod's conn try, "so called. For sum several weeks
have been wanting tu say sumthin. For sum sev
:i years we rel s, so-called, but now late of said
3ir ty deceased, hav been tryin mity bard to do
amtbin. We didn't quite do it, and cow its very
aicful, I assure you, to dry up all of a sadden and
iake out like we wasn't thr.
I My friend, I want tr say suaithio. I suppose
.here is no law agin thinkin, but thinkin don't belp
jae. It don't let dawn iny thermometer. I mast
-iplode myself generally so as to feel better. Yoa
e I'm tryin t i harmonize. I'm tryin to soften
down nay feelings. I'm endeavoring to subjugate
iyself to tht, level of surronndin circumstances, so
called. But I can't do it until I am allowed to S3y
sumtbio. I want to quarrel with somebody and
iheu make friends. I aiut no giant-kiHer. I aint no
Korwegian bar. I aint no boar-c nstrikter ; but I'll
bb l.oiswaggled if the taikin and tbe writtio and tbe
slanderiug has g jt to be all done on one side any lon
ger. Sum of your folks have got to dry up or turn
our folks loose. Its a blamed outrage, so-called.
Aiut your editors got nothin else to c'o but to peck
at us, and tquib at us, act! crow over us ? Is every
man wbat can write a paagraf to consider U3 as bars
in a cage, and be always a jobbin at ns to hear us
i growl ? Now you see, my friend, that's what's dis
harmonious, and do you jst tell 'em, one and all, e
pluribus unuro, so-called, that if they don't stop it
jtt once, or turn us loose to say what we please, why
We rebs, so-called, have unanimously and jointly and
severally resolved to to to think very bard of it
if not harder.
I That's the way to talk it. I aint agwine to com
mit myself. I know when to pat on the brakes.
I aint agwine to say all I think Like Mr. Etheridge,
or Mr. Aderrig, so called. Nary time. No, sir.
But I'll Jest tell you, Artemus, and you may tell it
So your show. If we aint allowed to express our sen
timents, we can lake it out in hatin ; and hatin runs
heavy in my family, sure. I hated a man so bad
once that all the hair cum off my head, and the man
irowned himself in hcg-waller that night. I kould
do it agin, but you 6ee I'm tryin to harmonize, to
acquiesce, to tekum kalm and sereen,
? Now I suppose that, poetikally spsiklag,
7 " In Dixie's fall, -
-1 We sinned all,
But taikin the way I see it, a big feller and a Ut
ile feller, so-called, got into a fite, and they fout and
font a long time, and everybody all round kep hol
hting hands off, but kep helpin the big feller, until
nally the little feller caved in and hollered enuf.
He made a bully fite, I tell you, Selah. Well, what
did the big feller do? take him by tbe hand and
help him up, and brush the dirt off his clothes ?
Ito, sari but he kicked him arter he was down, and
thro-wed mud on him, and drug him about and rubb
: J sand in his eyes, and now he's gwine about hunt
i:g up his poor little property. Wants to confiskate
: to-called Blame my jacket if it aint enuf to make
our head swim.
But I'm a good Union man so-called. I ain't a
Tine to fire no more. I shan't vote for the next
ar. I ain't no gurilla. I've donetuk the oath,
id I'm gwine to keep it, but as for my bein subjtt
.ttd, aDd humilyatcd, and amalgamated, and ener
it"J, as Mr. Chase sayv it aint so qary time.
I ain't ashamed of nuthin neither ain't repentin
it asking forn ) one hore-, wtivn-w.uucu paruou.
T'Dbody needn't be piayin priest around me. I aln t
: X no twenty thousand dollars. Vi3Q l naa , i a
".Te it to these poor widers and orfins. I'd fatten
L y own numerous and interesting offspring in about
t :o micits and a half. They shcnldn' eat roots and
C Ink branch water no longer. Poor, unfortunate
t' logs 1 to cum into this-subloonary world at slch a
tl.ie. There's four or five of 'era that never saw a
; V..us nor a monkey 6how never had a pocket
" hzile. nor a piece of cheese, nor a reesin. There is
' Lull Run Arp, and Harper's Ferry Arp, and Chicka
- tominy Arp that never seed the picters in a spelling
Lxik. I tell vou. mv friend, we are the poorest peo
ple on the face of the earth bat we are poor and
proud. We made a tullyfite, Selah 1 and the whole
Am erikin nation ought to feel proud of it. It shows
wbat Amerikiiis can Io whea they think they are
Imposed on" so called." Didn't oar four fathers
fite, bleed and die about a little tax on tea, when not
One in a thousan drunk it ? Bekaus they sukseeded,
waeent it glory ? But if they hadent I suppose it
Would have been treason, and t hey would have been
'bo win and scrapin round King George for par Ion
JSo it goes, Artemus, aid to ty miod, if the whole
thing was stewtd down, it would make about a half
ia pint of humbug. We had good men, great men,
. Christian men, who thought we was right, and many
of 'em have gone to tbe. undiscovered country, and
:bave got a pardon as is a pardon. When Idle, 1 m
Jmity willio to rik myself u ii-r the shid) uf their
wings, whethf r the climate be hot or cold. So mote
it be. Selah!
i Well, maybe I've said enuf. But don't feel easy
jyit. I'm a good Union man, sertin and sure. I've
(had my brveches died blue, and I've got a blue
bucket, and I very often feel blue, and about twice
I in a while I go to the doggery and git blue, and
then I look up at the blue serulean heavens and
ifiing the melankollv choryus of the Blue tailed Fly.
I'm doing my durndest to harmonize and think I
f could succeed it it was'nt for some things. When
i I see & black euard coins around the streets with a
I gun on bis shouldes, why right trnn, for a few min
utes, I hate the whole Yanky nation. Jerusalem,
how my blood biles. The institution what was
handed down to us by the heavenly kingdom of
on'th nnwder and
I ball! Harmonize the devil ! Aint we human oe
fings? Aint we got eyes and eari aid feelin and
thinkin r Why the whole of Afriky has come to
jtown, women and children and babies and baboons
and all. A man can tell how fur it is to the city
by the smell better than the mile-post. They won't
work for us, and they won't work for themselves,
and they'll perish to death this winter as shore as
the devil is a hog, so-called. They are now bask
ing in the summer's sun, living on roastin ears and
freedom, with nary idee that the winter will cum
agin, or that castor oil and salts cost money. Sum
Of 'emv a hundred years old, are whinin around
about goin to cawledge. The truth is, my friend,
sumbody's badly fooled about this bizness. Sum
body has drawd the elefant in the lottery, and don't
know what to do with him. He's just throwin his
Snout about loose, and by-and-by he'l hurt sum
body. These niggers will have to go back to tbe
plantations and work. I ain't going to support nary
one of 'em, and when you hear anybody say so,
jou tell 'em " its a lie," so-called. I golly, I ain't
got nuthin to support myself on. We fout our
selves out of everything exceptin children and land,
ind I suppose the land are to be turned over to the
diggers for grave -yard.
f Well, my friend, I don't want much. I aint am
Atious, as I used to was. You all have got your
ows and monkeys and sirkusses and brass bands
3d orging,.and can play on the petrolyum and the
rp of a thousand strings, and so on, but I,veonly
pt one favor to ax of you. I want enuf powedr to

J premises at night. Pon honor, I wont shoot at
3thing blue or black or mulatter. Will you send

it ? Are you and your foaks so skeered of me and
my foaks, that yon Wont let ns have any ainyni
shun ? Are the squirrels and crows4" and black
rakoons to eat up our poor Kjttle corn patches ?
Are the wild turkeys to gobble all around us with
impunity? If a mad-dog takes the hiderfoby, is
the whole community to run itself to death to get
out of the way ? I golly ! It looks like your pepul
had all tuk the rebelfoby for good, and was never
gwine to git over it. See here, my, friend, you mast
send me a little powder and a ticket to your show,
and me and you will harmonize sertin.
With these few remarks I think I feel better, and
hope I haint made nobody ti tin mad, for I'm not on
that line at this time. I am trooly your friend all
ent or accounted for. Bill Arp, so-called.
P. S. Old man Harris wanted to buy my fiddle
the other day with Confedrik raohey. He said it
would be good agin. He says that Jim Funderbuk
told bim that Warren's Jack seed a man who had
jest cum from Virginny, and he sed that a man told
his cousin Mandy that Lee had whipped em agin.
Old Harris says that a man by the name of Mack
C. Million is coming over with a million of men.
But nevertheless, notwithstanding, somehow or
somehow else, I'm dubus about the money. If you
was me, Artemus, would you make the fiddle
trade ?

How the Western Indians Fight. A corres
pondent of a Cincinnati paper, describing a recent
atjdck on a Government train on the Western
plains, has the following as to the Indian method of
fighting.:
They rarely, if ever attack except on horseback;
and each man keeps his horse on the run, riding
generally in a circle, so as to avoid shots, discharg
ing in the meantime showers of bullets and arrows,
and shouting to stampede the animals. When a
weapon is pointed at one of them, he shelters him
self almost entirely by hanging over one side of his
horse, and from this position continues firing.
Dashintr suddenly upon a train in this manner, they
can often discharge a great number of shots before
the teamsters, taken by surprise, and encumbered
by the care of their teams, can make any organized
or effective resistance, and if unsuccessful in their
attempts to shoot the drivers or stampede the ani
mals, they are otten able to make good their re
treat without serious loss. The principal defence
against an attack of a formidable nature is to form
a corral, which furnishes a considerable protection,
and cases have occurred where corrals have been
beseigedfor several days, by large bodies of Indi
ans too numerous to be encountered on the open
nlain.
Although arrows are still much used, many of
the Indians are well armed with nhes and revol
vers, though some of them at least do not under
stand the use of the breech-loading guns, and they
have been known to leave captured weapons of
lhat description, after breaking so as to render
them useless.
Ma. Davis' Family. A Montreal correspondent
of the Le Canadien imparts the following para
erauh : .
The children of Jefferson Davis have been for some
time in Canada, as is well known. Th two, boys
are iust now in Chambly , and about to eater Lennox-
ville Cjllese. The young girl, nine years of age, is a
pupil at the convent ol the Sacred Heart, Sault-au-Recollects.
Last Sabbath several Southern refugees
went to see her. They brought with them the Federal
General Cochrane, whom they introduced to the girl,
telling her that he. was a friend of the Southern cause,
although circumstances constrained him to fight in
the ranks ofXtsenemies. The child, looking to tne
General, answered : " I shall believe that you are one
of the friends of our cause when yoa shall have ob
tained the release of father. The General was deep-
lv moved with this answer, and promised the child to
nsA all his influence on behalf of Mr. Jefferson
Davis.
The Ensiish doI ice is horrified by the announce
ment, made in much detail by the press, that Prince
Arfhnr'a rarTiftfre was latelv iostled by the hub of a
Hit-t cart at Rlflir?owrle. But for the fact that the
roval horeea were coine at a slow walk, serious dam
age might bave been aone. w.

which chronicles it Id the newspapers.
RALEIGH, THURSDAY, NOV. 2, 1865 NO. 300
THE CITY.
-Persons ia city and country are requested, at all
times, to furnih us verbal or written information of tny
erentsof public interest which may transpire in their
neighborhoods, or of which they may have knowledge.
Ordinance Revoked. Oar city fathers passed an
ordinance, at their meeting on Saturday evening
laet,makiDg it an offence, punishable by fine, for a
colored pursun to stand behind a counter in the ca
pacity of a clerk. The commandant of this post,
as we are informed, has decided that the city author
ities could not enforce such a law.
We undertake to s?.y, hovver, that the city au
thorities, in passing 6uch an ordinance, did not sup
pose, .(or intend,) that they were doing anything
in cantradistinction to what they believed to be their
duty to the well-being of society. It was far from
them to take any power from its legitimate source,
as they evidently would not offar insult to those who
are at present put here to govern. If fchey had not
seen, or believed they saw, evil resulting from the
frecdmaD'8 traffic in spirituous liquors, they would
have taken no action in the matter.
We trust, however, that our city police of thirty
men will be enabled to qaell riot, and otherwise put
down disorder.
Interesting to Photographers. The following
important decision has jnst been received from tbe
Commissioner cf Internal Revenue, in reply to a let
ter written to him in relation to photographers. The
Commissioner, in referring to the letter, sayj' : Yoa
state that the porcelain being transparent, the stamp
destroys the symmetry of the picture, and you in
quire whether the provisions of the law would not
be complied wih were the manifacturer to pay an
ad valorem tax thereon.
In answer, I have to say that the late Commis
sioner did authorize monthly returns in cases similar
to the above, for some time prior to March 3, 1865,
with the the idea that Congress wnld give the pho
tographers tbe relief desired ; but S that was denied,
the Commissioner di4 not feel atthorized to grant
further indulgence and has since required a fall com
pliance with the J-aw. Known violations of the law
will be promptly prosecuted.
Improvemkktb. A stroll throagh the city yester
day merDing afforded us a better idea of the improve
ments being made than we have herein -j-t
is 4frn thai there are but few cy UBdertakiDga In
kand at present, owing to the want of capital, but
enough is seen to show the determination of the peo
ple to have houses enough for the accommodation of
themselves and their trade operations. In every sec
tion we could hear and see tba hammer and other
tools contributing to the new eia of business life upon
which Rileigh has entered. It is hopeful and health
ful to observe this spirit of activity, and we receive
it is as indisputable indication tlat as soon as money
can be had, such general prosperity will be seen
among our population as has been heretofore un
known. In a New Dbess. The last issue of the Newbern
limes comes to us in an enlarged form, eight pages
iLBtend of four, as originally established. The type
are new and our friends, Messrs. Vestal & NcKoight,
deserve what they are receiving: large patronage.
By their present arrangement they can accommodate
their friends who advertise and yet have room suf-
ficient to make tbe Times a full and reliable newspa
per. The typography is excellent and few newspa
pers in the Souih are more carefully and ably man
aged. Responding. We are glad to hear that the citi
zens generally are very cheerfully responding to the
summons of fche Mayor pro tern, with respect to
handing in lists of taxable property. Some few
seem a little reluctant, but will have to come to the
scratch at last. Indeed, law and order, as well as
improvement, can only be maintained through the
agency of taxation. Let all, then, toe tbe mark
promptly, and do all that ia needful to make the
city prosperous.
Homes for Feiendless Children. In mauy
charities the South is far behind the North. We
6ee thatBince the conclusion of the war Philadelphia
and other cities have nebly undertaken to provide
homes for friendless children. A similar necessity
exists for founding such homes in our section, and we
hope that Raleigh will not fail In providing for the
orphans made by the war or from other causes.
Betting. We regret to hear that there is a large
disposition among the "friends of different candidates
for different offices, to indulge in election bets. We
have seldom known it to fail in producing wrangling
and alienation, and, therefore, beg them to keep
cool. The questions at issue are far too Important
to be associated with epeculation.
Seven Hundred. In Tuesday's Standard a list
of nearly seven hundred pardons appeared. This is
wholesale, but eminently wise, as showing the dis-
pobition of the Governor towards a large number of
the very men who most roundly abuse him.
The Baptist State Convention which meets
at Wake Forrest next Monday is expected to attract
full rorirpcnffttinn from every part of the State. It
lUli IWi VUV -
will be well, therefore, to make every possible arrange
ment for accommodating the members.

mocs from Wake,
" Jame3 Monroe, the sixth President of the United
States, died in York so poor that hi remains found a
resting place through the charity of one of his
friends. They remain ia a cemetery in School street,
bat no monument marks the spot where they re-'
pose."
To the .Editors cf the Lotiisritte Journal :
Sirs : I clip the above from your paper of the
7th inst , which may mislead some of your readers
as to a historic fact, which 1 know you will readilv
correct. J
Ex-President Monroe died at tbe residence of his
son-in-law, Mr. Samuel L. Gouverneur, in tba city
of Jsew York, where the warmest filial tenderness
ootbed his latter days. He was buried in New
York by his relatives, and not Ky th rharitv of M
frienda. Jo 1858, UDder escort of the New York
Seventh Regiment, bis remains were removed with
great pomp and ceremony to Richmocd, and on the
5th of July following were reintered in Hollywood
Cemetery, near that city, where they now repose.
This State, as a token of its high appreciation ot the
distinguished services of her eon, caused to be erected
a splendid mjnument to his memory. The remains
of bis beloved and amiable consort fltiil rest in the
family buyingground at Oak Hill, in this county,
the Presidents residence, which is ten miles south of
our county town. The property now belongs to Col.
John Minor Fairfax, who has inherited many of the
good qualities of his ancestors who settled here du
ring the reign of George III.
I am, dear sirs, very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
Wm. B. Downet.
