Of this the South had the privilege of settling Arkansas alone, or less than four per cent. of the whole. The sacrifice thus made by the South, for the sake of the Union, will be more fully appreciated when we reflect that under the Constitution Southern gentlemen had as much right, and the same right to go into the Ternd the North being largely in the majority, threw out Southern propositions and rejected all the efforts of Virginia at conciliation.
