FRENCH INVASION OF ENGLAND.

The apprehensions so freely expressed, and for
ssght that sppears so sincerely felt in England Of
the possibility OF French invasion, and of the
necessity Of new military snd naval mean, to be
prepared for such an emergency, are not BY any
means based entirely on recent events, or
on the persorsl character of Louis Napoleon.
Ever .ince the peace Of 1915, France, under ali
governments, has devoted large share Of her
revenue to the creation Of fleet able TO cope with
that of Great Brtan-a result which, in the
opinion of many, has been at length fully attained
Whist was and WHIST is the objec. IN providing and
keeping up this fleet In former times France
had extensive and valuable possessions both in
America and Ass. In both those continents she
was the rival of Great Britain, and had, therefore,
occasion for the maintenance Of great fleet for
the protection Of her ultramarine possessions.
That occasion, however, has passed away. The
remaining possessions Of France in those countries
are quite inconsiderable. As to her acquired
colony Of Algeria that is not possession which
any other Power would be likely to envy her, Ii
has always been heavy bill Of expense, and drain
upon the military resources Of France, which no
other nation would care about assuming In case
of hoslites, instead OF attempting to take it away,
the enemy would much rather have France
maintain possession of il as 8 means OF dra wing of
troops which il might otherwise be necessary to
encounter.
Certainly, tie foreign possessions Of France are

"The True Democrat says general reader sends us the following prescription: poison of any conceivable description and degree of potency, which has been intentionally or accidentally swal lowed may be rendered almost instantly harm less by simply swallowing two gills of sweet oil.
 We would like to know how the poison in de- mocrat, when he either intentionally or accident ally swallows the American party can be neutral ized. How much oil will it require to cleanse hm?''
 The prescription was copied from ano- ther paper and should have been credited. The question is difficult one to answer. Our observation has led us to conclude that know nottingham acts as an emetlc and the democrat soon throws it up. However, & full solution to the question can possibly be given shortly. An attempt Is being made to consolidate all that is left of the American party with the disaffected, tende- footed and bob-tail democrats in this State, under a new name. The only danger IS that instead of their swallowing the Ameri- can party, the aforesaid American party will swallow them. In either case, 1t will require great deal of oil to '" cleanse the foul bosom of the perilous stuff that will weigh thereon.
 The Batesville Balance says that some parts of that country has begun to suffer from the drouth. It is very dry here, though in some portions of this county they have had fine rains From other sources we learn that some localities are burning up.

their course is not similar. And it seems to us the bill is completely filled in the ner- son of the editor of the Gazette. To sum 1t up: Does he not demonstrate to frac- tion that he, ofa others, is an old iner:- As to outwriting the True Democrat, if he can't what man in the broad State of Arkansas can do it? As to the stiff upper lip, Is not his as stiff as the rim of an iron pot? As to being bought or swerved who so proof against temptation or beyond the reach of threats? Indeed, the intelligent reader will see that everything fits and dove tails here to nicety. Of course any sug- gestion we might make to the founders of the new concern, though made with our us,l- al fairness, good faith and utter want of sel- fshness, would be disregarded. Neverthe- less, we cannot close>-this article without suggesting that they might "go further and fare woIse.'

REPORTS OF DECISIONS OF THE SUPREME CoURT.-These reports are attracting a good deal of attention from the gentlemen of the bar in our State, several of whom have written letters to us complimentary of that feature in our paper. In our next issue, we shall be enabled to give another decision concerning railroads and stock holders. By referring to the decision re- ported Tn our paper of the 9th inst, it will be seen that the court decided that stock subscriber cannot successfully resist the payment ofhis subscription upon the ground that the company failed to comply with the provisions of the charter Although company may do or fail to do acts in vio latIon of its charter, that cannot be plead ed by defense in collateral suit. We are told that great many suits are threat ened, and we call the attention of our snh- scrlbers who may be stockholders in rail roads to the important points decided in the case of the NJ. 0. and R. R. railroad vs Edward Cross, reported in our paper of the 9th inst These decisions will be found to be true synopsis of the lead ing points in each case, and do great credit to Mr. Hoadley by whom they are prepared and who we take pleasure in recommending as . lawyer of energy and abililv.
