TROUBLES OF AN AMATEUR FISHER
MAN IN THE WILDs OF rARKANsAs.-
On Tuesday morning last several Mem
phians took the train at Hopefeld for days
fishing at Ten-mile bayou, on the Memphis
and Little Rock railroad. After keeping
together until noon, they agreed to separate
up and down the bayou, but to keep within
hailing distance of each other, and return
on the evening train. One young gentle
man became so engrossed in the sport as
not to notice that his watch had stopped.
He heard his friends halloa, but on con-
sulting his time-piece concluded to keep on
a little longer, as the perch were biting
nicely. IT
At length he gathered up his tackle and
sought the rendezvous where the party had
taken dinner together, and from whence
they we're 10 depart for the station. To his
surprise he found his friends gone. Taking
the track through the bush by which they
had come, he followed it until he came to q
point where it diverged. Unhappily, he
took the wrong trail, and found, too late,
that it was only a hog path, and led nowhere
in particular. Night was coming on, and
the wilderness of canebreak and briar by
which he was surrounded grew more and
more dense. He threw away his fish as
cumbersome, and bethought himself how to
spend night in the forest. He had neither
knife, pistol, nor matches. He says the SEN
sation of terror that crept upon him
at this time is utterly indescribable, and
can only be experienced by one lost
for the first time in trackless forest.
He encountered numerous snakes of va
rious kinds, but gave them wide berth.
Afraid to sleep on the ground, he climbed
tree just before dark, and sat in crotch
all night, not daring to sleep lest he should
tumble off, and yet SO weary, worn, and
weak from hunger, thirst, and fatigue, as
scarcely to be able to keep awake. A heavy
shower had fallen during the afternoon,
and his clothing was completely water
soaked. He could plainly hear the cries of
animals and the hootings of owls around
him the livelong night, and it seemed as
though the dawn would never come.
At length daylight appeared, and he left
his perch more dead than alive to resume
his hunt for the railroad track. Happily
he came upon it about O'Clock, and after
walking several miles reached the station
building at ten-mile bayou, where he OBJ
tanned some breakfast. There being no
trains on the road that day, he was COM
PEELED to foot it to Hopefeld, opposite Mem.
phis ten miles distant, where he arrived a.
little after dinner with torn clothes,
scratched limbs, and in dilapidated con-
dition generally. He is quite out Of con-.
ceit of Arkansas and its accommodations
for travellers, and proposes that the fish in
her bayous shall remain undisturbed in
the future SO far as he is concerned.-Men
pkis (1enn.) Post.

Edward B. Moore, managing editor of the
Brooklyn Union, has completed his opera
of &C Mootla,'' which claims to be the only
original and entirely American opera pro-
duced in this country. The scene is laid
in Salem during the days of witchcraft, and
eminent critics speak very favorably of the
work.
George W. Childs, proprietor of the Phil
adelphia Ledger, subscribed $1,000 for the
relief of the sufferers by the late flood in
Baltimore.

that the yield is not as large as they antici-

CHESAPEAKE AND OHIO RAILROAD
SALES OF LAND.-We have been informed
that this company has already purchased
large tracts of valuable land, to be paid for
in its eight per cent. preferred stock. We
are glad to see that the landowners along
the line of this great road are beginning to
appreciate the opportunity which the COM
pany affords them of making SO profitable
a disposition of their lands. The sales
which have already been made to the COM
pany have not been Of unimproyed lands.
Only q few days since DR.. William P.
Rucker, of. Nicholas, sold to the company
several large tracts of land, including his
highly improved farm of 1000 acres in the
" Bend of Gauley." His sale amounts to
over 100000. Il, 1ve
Hon. A. T. Caperton, Mrs. Margaret
Hanna, Colonel A. D. Johnston, DR.. Here
ford, Mr.. j. S. Johnston, and others, have
thus disposed of many thousands of acres
of land, and many offers are now being con-
sidered by the agents of the company.
While these persons have aided in securing
the construction of q most important line of
railroad, they have made most profitable
investment for themselves. Their lands
are taken at their fair cash value, and they
receive preferred stock, which will be
worth, when the road is completed, from
$l20 to $3.50 per share, and which will then
yield dividend of from fifteen to twenty
per cent, and during the construction of
the road all the profits will be appropriated
to the payment of dividend on the pre-
ferred stock. AS soon as the land is con-
veyed to the company the landowners are
relieved from q heavy tax, and all the pro-
perty of the companyis exempt from taxa
ton. Land should be offered at once. Let
the good work 60 on, and by next summer
the road will be completed to Greenbrier
river.-- Geenbrier Independent. =. 5.,.r. i,

LONDON, July 27.-Adyices from Japan
to June 3Oth are received. All the foreign
ministers had protested against the revival
by the Mikado of DEGREES against the ma
tive Christians. Civil war cont nued to
rage with much violence. The troops of
the Mikado were in possession of all the
ports opened to foreigners by treaty. Ba-
shi, the ex-Tycoon, was at the head Of the
revolt against the spiritual Emperor, and
had large army at his command with
which he was approaching Yeddo, in which
city the party of the Tycoon is quite strong.
Some fighting, not decisive, had taken
place near Yeddo.
1t was thought the war between the two
parties, apparently so evenly balanced in
strength and resources, would result in the
division of the country into two independent
empires, governed respectively by the Ty-
coon and the Mikado.
