set upon the head of Kossuth, by the Emperor of

When we look 10 the history of our own Revo-

disaster, similar to the case OF the Hungarans, at
present. yet victory eventually crowned the efforts
OF our forefathers. The cause of liberty is holy

says: The S. W. and Arkansas Mining Company
are doing business with a "big auger'' at the
mines near our city. They have bored three
holes and found mineral each time. In the last
trial, at depth Of fifteen feet the auger struck
layer of mineral and at the last accounts had gone
several feet showing large led of ore. We are
informed by one of the propretors that there is
more mineral already in sigh. than can be raised
in one year.

the Judge of the County Court for issuing writ

There might have been departure from the due
course of law by the Judge, which made the pro-

dence between Hart and Wise's wife, we do not
think Wise ought to have suffered Imprisonment
one hour. We are glad that he was admitted to
bail, and we yet hope to see him trumphan,ly ac-
quilted of the charge of murder.

Perfdy and ls Retribution.-A correspondent
of the Newark Adrertiser, who writes from on
board the U. States ship Warren, at San Francis
CO, relates the following melancholy episode in
California life. The writer says:
We lost twenty-five in the harbor of
Monterey, who deserted to the mines and five
sailors and threo marines stole boat, with which
they all escaped except one, who. on alarm being
given, received shot in his leg, which has ruined
him for life. The others started for the mines
but before they had gone half the way the marines
parted fiom the sailors. The latter came TO a
farmhouse. where the owner treated them hospi.
taby with supper and lodgings, when the inhuman
wretches turned TO and robbed and murdered the
whole family, men, women, and children But
found them, tied them up, and shot them on the
spot.''

The CRY OF VAN buren, AND ITS PROSPECTS,
This place certainly has the most 1attering pro-
spects of any in the southwest. If we only i'm
prove the natural advantages possess, there is
no doubt but that in few years we will have a
population of eight ten thousand. Situated we
are on the head of navigation of Arkansas river,
surrounded by healthy and fertile country, now
settled and settling with an industrious and enter
prisng population, there is no place that we
know that offers such inducements for capitalists
and enterprising men as Van Buren, it being the
nearest and best point to navigation for North
vest Arkansas and South west Missouri, and al
most the only outlet for this rich and Aourishing
section of country.
With such advantages as these, Van Buren is
bound to increase with unparalleled rapidity; and
in few years, be the largest as it is now the most
business place in this State. 1t now contains a
thousand or twelve hundred inhabitants; and in
creasing in population and business daily. There
are now two brick Churches, and several large
brick houses for business and private residences,
in process of erection, which when complete,
will add greatly TO its appearance. There is also
a steam mill in process of erection in our city,
which will be complete in few days, and ready
to manufac cture flour, which when finished, will
manufacture from seventy-fve to one hundred
barrels per day. rr-ze.-. ..-r..

THE MAILs.--The Washington Union Of the
4th inst, in speaking of the manner in which the
Post Office Department is conducted, concludes
thus:
"And while all this bedlamte disorder regns
in the Post Office Department, the Postmaster
General is absent on an electoneering visit to
Vermont. Nor, if he were here, do we believe he
could prevent the confusion. The trouble, in our
opinion, grows ont Of tho wanton and uniustifabIe
prescription of every efficient man connected with
the mail service. Everywhere have postmasters,
agents, superntendents, and others, connected
for the inefficient and incompetent creatures Of
the administration, in order to reward for political
services. Who wonders that the Post Office De.
partment is itself breaking down under such in.
sane and reckless management These things
are fast convincing the country that the appoint.
ment of Judge Collamer was one I" not fit to be

OF the restrictive, intercourse principles OF the pro-
ectionsts, have hardly been worthy OF notice. While
the foreign market has been extending. the home market
which the proteconsts say has been destroyed is rapid
ly increasing Its increase does not spring from the
hunful and mschievous influence of prohibtory laws
but il is caused by the healthy action OF just and foster
ing policy The nation has increased in prosperity and
the consumption Of manufactured productions has in
creased in consequence of that prosperity This extends
the home market but il is unsatisfactory TO the special
advocates of the home Market because they wish TO kill
the bird for its golden egg They not satisfied with
fair profit upon large consumption; but they wish to
realize enormous profits upon diminished consumption
and they are utterly reckless Of the evils which the
policy must entail upon the people. In the State Of
Massachusetts,. during the first three years of the
tariff Of 1912, which the advocates Of the home mar
ket wish 10 restore. only SIi.675.ooo were applied
to manufacturing purposes, while the amount 50

enormous sum OF $4l ,I99 ooobeing about half Of

acs--and there are many others of the same tenor
prove most concusvey that the advocates Of special
privileges speak falsely when they assert that present
commercial system has destroyed the home market which
formerly existed for the products Of agricultural indus
try. That market is steadily increasing, without working
