 f From the Searcy Eagle


 Mir. EpIToR--Nothing does me more good than to recommend to the public man that in my humble opinion deserves the confidence and patronage of this community, and the White river valley generally. And the man that speak of or wish to speak of is, and can be found on board of the steamer Return, as Master. Riley Jones has grown up here in our own State, on the banks of our own riv- CTS. has gradually worked his way from cab in boy, to be the commander of first class steamer, he knows what kind of boat suits best our trade, and has the orders that are en- trusted to his care, promptly attended. Aside from that, his under officers are as clever a sci of fellows as ever trod on shoe leather, first there is Jim Booker, always at his post and ever ready to see to the comfort of the pas sengers, and the ladies in particular, Bill Ear ly and Cad Hanks, whom we all know, act a: second and third clerks and are faithful in tht discharge of their duty, while the two Nixon boys are at the wheel skinning the willows or turning the bends with such accuracy anc skill, one would think that they handled boa as if it was but toy. When ever any body wishes to go to Memphis and back again, anC travel with clever set of fellows just let hin get on the Return and will vouch that he vii say as do when he returns.
 Respectfully,
 JOHN McC--.
