70 BROWN COTTON GIN BBS and Arkansu river packets are ail gone (te use a steamboat phrase) to the bone-yard for the summer, we rest use making in preaicuon tmu this is the test season that we will over see any sane man er men bring a boat La la river in the fall, with a view. of running to and from New Orleans (some insane man may try to aaep np the trade), for several reasons, two of which wo will five. First, any steamboat that Is suitable for the Arkansas river must necessarily bo too small to make profit by go-lw from the mouth of ths Arkansas toNew Orleans, a distaace of some miles down ana dace: ond, by the time that the cotton season or lsio ana lain cnmmmn next fall, the treat' Anchor Line of St- Louis wtifhave a daily lino of roagalaeeat steamers passing up and deva by the mouth the Arkansas river. In addition to tho Anchor Una there will be at least three large steamers in the Memphis and NewOrlaana nacket trade, and be sides we will have the great Missis-ssppl Valley Barge Line, and tho nounti Line of rreignt earners rjaaaing down by the mouth almost The facilities tor re-snipping irotn the month of the river (Terrene). witn the aid or tne ma turnout wharf-boat df Wm.

Eisell A new there, will be ao mat and tha rate Of freitrht OR cotton so low that, as we said before, no sane man will think of run ning a boat from this rleer to New Orleans direct, 'mere win oe ae-mand and business for eur Memphis and Little Rock packets. There will also be a demand for and business for onr Little Rock and Fort Smith packets. All other boat employed in this river during the busy cotton season will be compelled to run from, say Fort Smith, to the mouth, and there reship their cotton to New Orleans. Memphis or St. Louis, as the case may be, if they wish to make a profit.

We mean ia many words, that the New Orleans and Arkansas river trade Is played out there will be no profit in it hereafter. A word to the wise, ete. Business ed the levee very good yesterday, By Telegraph. Memphis, May 22. The river fell 1 inch: stands 21 feet inches.

especially the vexed question of tariff, which has become of late years so onerous to tne peo ple, whereby the cistern manuntct-ures had fattened upon the sub stance ef the Sooth and West, marking the fact that patent rights articles of the East were sold in Europe at 50 per cent cheaper than America. In the plainest language he demonstrated the fact that to the people of Arkansas were dae the immense sum of 110,000,000 Illegally wrung from them by the acta of the United States Treasurer, under the guise ef internal revenue, and that the same should and would be reimbursed and distributed among Arkansas citizens if the proper legislation were had.

The ladies had not sold tickets enough to pay the expense or the train. When this fact was made known to the of ficials of the St. Louis and Iron Mountain Railroad, they very promptly reduced the price charged ror the train to an amount within the ability of the ladies oi the association to pay. Pecuniarily the excursion was not a profitable one, but socially It was an immense success, and it is to be deeply rarretted that the excursion did not bring more money Into the treasury of the association. Too much -praise can not be given to these noble women, whose chief en- lovmeot seems to consist in con trio utmg to tne happiness or others, and it is due to the ladles of the association, as well as the public, to state that there have been several enterprises gotten up, ostensibly for the benefit of the association, that have not brought a cent' Into its treasury.

Anion? them uiavt be mentioned a ball given last winter bv the St. Andrew Catholic society. two entertainments at Deuell's Park, and the Merry Young Bachelor's excursion. It is to be presumed that these enterprises did not pay expenses, and we hope that when ever the ladies ol the association asrain appear before the public, that their services may be recognized in a more substantial manner. The train left the depot at 9:30 o'clock and reached Arkadelphla at 12 o'clock, passing through a beautiful country, well wooded and well watered.

The crops looked well, and we were surprised that there was not more land in cultivation on the Immediate lineof the read. The railroad owns a great deal of very valuable land aleng its line and offering It at low prices. When the party reached Arkadelphla that old wheel-horse of Democracy, Col. R. W.

Johnson, was delivering anad-dress to the great unwashed. We did not hear any portion of the ad-drees, but with conversations with many eld friends we came to the conclusion that the address was well received and that he had made many friends there. Upon arriving at Arkadelphla the party went immediately to the grassy banks of the Ouachita, and after a heavy lunch all the boys and girls interested themselves in trying to ensnare the wily trout, the lively perch, or the silent cat. but the fish did not bite very rapidly, and one of the girls (who is too pretty to live) threw down her Hue and vowed that she "would not fish any more In the water." Her gallant escort dryly remarked that "he thought, perhaps, there were more tucoert on the land than In the water." The ladies of the Association de sire to express their sincere thanks to the officers of the St. Louis.

Iron Mountain and Southern Railroad for their generous conduct in redtoo Ing the price charged for the train, and to tne gentlemen who made up a deficiency of $15. They also desire to express their thanks to Mr. John C. Hale, the conductor of the train, for his polite attention to the excursionists. An Iowa woman put starch into her husband's bw, thinking it was arsenic, and waa surprised because It didn't stiffen him.

Business called the S. D. out of the city for a few days, and when he returned he found his house "swept and garnished," the furniture missing and his friend as well. lie is very anxious to see his friend. He has something particular te say to him.

The work on the streets goes forward as rapidly as possible. We are informed by the City Engineer that It is tils intention to gravel Second street, in the absence of any other arrangement by the City Council, and make a first-class highway of it to the depot. There is a gravel deposit on Byrd street, of some yards, which is available for that purpose, and it will be used to repair the bad placed which abound throughout the city. There has been a gutter built across Center and Fourth streets, and the grade of the tormer will be raised one loot. If the Council can only provide the means, we feel assured that by next winter the citizens of Little Bock need not feel ashamed of their public thoroughfares.

It Is not enough that only unlicensed dan should be subject to the death penalty, but it should be made obligatory opon all owners of these animals to keep them from the street at night, any way.

But for the fact that their owner was a personal friend of his. and valued his dogs highly, be would have made an earnest enin to nave killed them, and would probably have been iustifled In eo doing. is true enough that much may be said for the dogs, but we do not think It unreasonable to ask that their owners be compelled to pre vent them rrom aoing miscniei.

When Thomas drove up to the house en Elizabeth street yesterday to deliver the usual quart of mixture, the gentleman of the house kindly inquired: how many quarts of milk do you deliver?" "Mnety-one, sir." "And how many cows have you?" "Nine, sir." The gentleman made some re marks about the early spring, close of the Eastern war and the state of the roads, and then asked "Hay, Thomas, bow much milk per day do your cows average "Seven quarts, sir," urn," said the gentleman, as he moved off. Thomas looked after him, scratched his head, and at once grew pale as he pulled out a short pencil and began to figure on the wagon cover. "Nine cows is nine, and I set seven quarts down under the cows and multiply.

That's sixty-three quarts of milk. I told him I sold ninety-one quarts per day. Sixty-three from ninety-one leaves twenty-eight, and none to carry. Now, where do I get the rest of the milk? I'll be hanged if I haven't given myself away to one of my beet customers by leaving adurned big cavity In these figures to be tilled with water." Worth Dying For. I am no teller of stories, says Hazlitt, yet there is one belonging to Burleigh House of which I happened to know some of the particulars.

The late Earl ot Exeter was divorced from his wife, a woman of I rasnion and of somewnat more gay-ety of mappers than "lords who love their ladies" like. He determined te seek a second In an humble sphere of life, and that It should be one. who, having no knowledge of his rank, should love him for himself alone. For this purpose he went and settled incognito, under the name of Mr. Jones, at Honet, an obscure village in Shropshire.

He made overtures to one or two damsels in the neighborhood, but they were too knowing to be taken in by him. His manners were not boorish his mode of life was retired: it was odd how be got his livelihood and at last he began to be thought a highwayman. In this dilemma he turned to Miss Higgins, the eldest daughter of a small farmer at whose house he lodged. Miss Higgins, It would seem, had not been used to romp with the village clowns; there was something in the manner of their quiet but eccentric guest which she liked. Having Inspired her with a kind of regard which ho wished for, he made honorable proposals to her, and at the end of some months they were married, without his letting her know who he was.

They set off in a post-chaise from her father's house and traveled across the country. In this manner they arrived at Stamford, and passed through the town without stopping, until they ISA-.
