A FRIEND TO EDUCATION.

HoT SPRINGS, ARK.-We- have
been permitted TO make the following
extract from a private letter, written
by gentleman formerly Of this city,
who has been residing al the Hot
Springs for several years for the
benefit Of his health:--Lou. Jour.
The great Hot Spring case is at
last settled. after a lawsuit Of thirty
wears standing. 1t has been in litiga.
iion ever since this country belonged
to the Indians. Ludovicus Belongs
heirs have proved up a pre-emption
claim, and have entered the quarter
of section that covers all OF the
hot springs-eighty odd in number
and the ,chole Of the town OF Hot
Springs, which contains about $50
or 200 inhabitants. The greatest
excitement prevails here-every man
and almost every woman is "armed
to the teeih," and swear they will
die before they will give up their
homes some Of whom have lived
here !wenty-one years.
Major w. H. Gaines. who married
one OF the heirs. has carried on the
suit and brought il TO a successful
close, for which he receives, for his
wife's part, one.half Of the property.
Major Gaines is a brother of Jno. p.
Gaines, Governor of Oregon.
The Hot Spring property is worth
at least 100000. In its present
.Unimproved condition the rents
amount to $1,000 annually. Gaines
and his lawyers left here on Saturday
for the county seat TO issue writs OF
ejectment against the settlers. They
will be served by the U. S. Marshal
this week or next, and then a dif-
ficulty is apprehended. It may be
six months or year before Gaines
gets all the tenants of, after which
the property will be improved and
enhanced in value. When the pro-
pertv becomes known there will, in
nv opinion, be two or three thousand
visitors here regularly-principaIly
invalids OF the worst sort.

MEDARY's ARGUMENTS IN Favor
OF PRINTING THE JoURNAIs.-Aher
the adjournment of the House on
Wednesday, after the passage OF the
resolution instructing the Clerk 10
notify Samuel Medary that he was
printing the Journals without author
itv, Me1ary accosted Mr.. Casad, the
member who introduced the resoIu
ton, and abused him in terms most
gross, violent and outrageous. The
Journal says of Medary:
"He was in a perfect rage-s~ung
his fisls-told Casad he had known
him for 25 wears. and that he was a
id rascal--lhat he had stabbed
him 10 the heart--that he had fought
fifty fights in the streets of Celum
bus, and he was ready TO fight again
that he, Cased, had made ID
fools Of The Democrats, &c, &c"
Ii will be recollecled that the Dem
.ocrats have large majority in the
House, and the resolution was passed
by majority Of ten. Does Medary
expect 10 bully the few Democrats
who dared TO do right in spite Of him,
into submission, and force them 10

and pe1ure themselves, to feed him

On STATE HousE BURNED-THE
New CAPIToL-We were indebted
to the telegraphic operators at Co
lumbus and this place, on Monday
morning, Tor the dispatch announcing
the burning OF this building. II there
is no important records or papers
burned, the loss to the State is not
much. The building was an old one
and Of little value, except as mat
ter of convenience till the new one
can be completed.
From the annual report of the
State House Commissioners for the
last year now before US, we learn
that the sum Of S99, 1885,, ,95 has been
expended on the new building during
the last year. Over one hundred
convicts have been employed during
the year on the work, and are now
engaged in preparing material TO be
used another season. During the
last season the building has been
raised about 90 feet; the whole height
of the exterior wall being now about
4Sfeet above the surface OF the ground.
In addition TO this, centres have been
framed and put up, and arches turned
over all the looms and halls on the
first floor. This vauliing the lower
rooms secures from fire, and forms
the support for the floors OF the Sen.
ate and House, Library, Court Room,
&c. An appropriation Of $50, or
100000 is asked to carry on the
work rapidly for the next two years.
We presume sufficient appropria'
tons will be made 10 complete the
building as speedily as possible, since
the burning o. the old one has left
the General Assembly without quar-
ters.

Va HARPER: ASH feel interested

Nh HARPER: As1 feel interested in
common with my fellow citizens, on the
subject Of our railroad. permit me to
make a few remarks. The Railroad
question that is now pending, whether
Gallipolis shall be the terminus or not
is Of all absorbing interest to every in
dividual in this community. tits lite
rally a question of life or death to the
interests of our town. Now the ques-
ton is whether we will be willing to
see what little trade we have dwindle
down to nothing or be increased an hum
dred fold. Other towns, that are our
near neighbors, are wide awake TO their
own interests, and are ready to act il
we fail; and arp-sighted, shrewd men
are watching US, ready to take advan-
tage of any neglect on our part, and,
for aught | know to the contrary, may
now be making an effort to snatch from
our grasp the prize that we hold. Is
this surmisel | only hope that it may
prove so. But il we do not make an
immediate. prompt and united effort we
may lose it. Although every individual
in this community is interested in this
great enterprise, yet the men of capital
and property are mole deeply interest
ed, because they will be benefited more.
I hope every man that is able to take
but single share will step forward and
do so.
Suppose that the road was completed,
and the "Iron Horse" was snorting
through our valleys, and the echoes
were reverberating among our hills,
coming with its train of freight and pas
sengers to the depot; what would be the
result 10 Gallipolisl Here is an indi-
vidual worth $4,000, and has sub
scribed $1,000, and Gallipolis becomes
the depot for the iron, the coal, the Rae
coon burr blocks, the lumber, the pro.
duce and the thousand and one other
articles of use that have lain dormant
waiting TO be harvested by the hand Of
skill and industry; there is an influx oi
men of capital and capacity, energy and
industry, and real estate rises one hun
dred per cent in value, and the man that
was worth $40 900 before, finds him
self worth $50 900; is he not the gain
er $1,000, aside from the stock worth
So, 1000 more, and his dividends out oi
the profits of the road. AID in the
same proportion is the country benefit
ed; our county. instead of being third
rate, will become first rate; every de-
partment of industry will receive an
impulse, and resources, of which we
are now unconcious, will be developed
But suppose that we lose the prize by
our own negligence. The individual
that is worth $4,000 now, will see his
property depreciatc fifty per cent, and
consequently be worth but $4,000 or
less.
This is a question that affects our
pockets, and if from no other but selfish
motives, aside from public spirit and a
desire TO see our town improve and be-
come place of importance. we should
subscribe literally, and assist as far as
we are able this work. There is no
such word as FAIL if we only
TRY.
