ARKANSAS LANDS SUBSCRIBED TO
RAILRoADs.-Owners of Arkansas
lands, who may have subscribed them
prior to July 1, 1S71,to railroad com,
panies in Arkansas, may be surprised
to learn that their exemption from
taxation has been absolutely termina,
ted. BY the terms Of the law of March
81, 1871, they are "listed for taxation
as other lands are listed" so that rail-
road companies which relied upon land
subscriptions made prior to July1, 1871
and which had not acquired bona fde
deeds, have lost, beyond the possibility
ofrecovery, this basis ofcredit for their
construction. Many who were bur-
dened with onerous taxation sought
this, their only refuge; and their only
course now is to sell or subscribe them
absolutely to some new railroad com,
pany. The Acts of Arkansas provide:
SECTION 1. ain addition to the cor
ti6cates furnished to the Auditor Of the
State BY the proper officers of the sew
eral railroad companies of this State,
descriptive of the lands that have been
subscribed and donated to said railroad
companies. 1t is hereby made the
duty Of the president aud secretary of
all railroad companies in the State,
having such subscription, to certify to
the Auditor of the State, the addi-
tional fact, under oath, properly ac>
knowledged that all such lands are
subscribed to their companies, bona
fdc. to be usedin furnishing aid for
the constitution of thoir roads, and that
there is no arrangement or understan.
ding that such subscribers shall have
the rightto withdraw any such subscri,
bed lands at any time nor for any
purpose.
Sec. 2. Deeds to all lands that are
now subscribed 10 such railroad COM
panies, that shall be certified to the Au>
ditor of the State, as provided in sec,
ton one of this Act, shall be filed for
record with the proper officer, in the
county in which such lands are situa.
ted, on or before the first day of July,
A. ID. 1871.
Sec. 8. On the first day of July, A.
ID. 1871, the Auditor of the State
shall proceed to classify all lands that
have not been additionally certified to,
as provided in section one of this act
and such lands as would have appear
ed on the list as forfeited lands shall
be so classed, and the remainder shall
be listed for taxation as other lands are
listed.
Sec. 4. All acts and parts of acts
inconsistent with this act are hereby
repealed. This act to be in fcrce and
take effect from aud after its passage.

TRUE HERoIsM. 2


Let others write of battles fought
On bloody, ghasiy fields
where honor greets ibe man who wins
And death the one who yields;
But will write of him who fights
And vanquishes bis sins.
Who struggles on through weary years
Agains. himself, and wins.
He is hero stsuLoh and brave,
Who fights an unss en- foe,
And puts at last beneath his feet,
His passions base and low,
And stands erect in manhood's might,
Undaunled, undismayed--
The hrayest man .ha, drew sword
in foray or in raid.
1t calls for something moro than Drawn
Or muscle TO o'crcome
An enemy who marcheth not
With banner, plume and drum
A foe forever lurking nigh.
With silent, stealthy tread.
Forever near your board by day,
At tight beside your bod.
All honor, then. to that brave heart,
Though poor or rich be be,
Who struggles with his oaser part,
Who conquers, and is free
He may not win conquerer's crown,
Or Gil hero's grave;
But truth will place his name among
The bravest OF the brave.

A Brooklyn lady, whose husband
has an unpleasant habit of railing at
her, has hit upon the plan of calling
in her servants when he begins to let
out his temper, and then turning to
him and saying sweetly, "Now, my
dear, please 60 on with your remarks"
He doesn't go on, at least not as he
began.
