The victory OF the American Rifle

Between the feats Of Paul BOyton and the
American rife team the Star Spanglei
Banner waves somewhat conspicuousIy
across the water The triumph OF ourrifemen
is more than we had reason 10 expect cousid-
oring that the contest last year on American
soil was so exceedingly close. and was de-
cided by an accident and further, that on
This occasion the Americans were TO shoot in
humid atmosphere with lowering Skies
differing so materially from the dry. thin
ar and bright sunshine at home. But the
result has proved that their eyes were true
enough and their nerves steady enough to
overcome all the difficulties of inexperience
with the ground and with the atmospheric
conditions Contrary to general expectation
Gen. BOdine took the lead on the American
side instead of Major Fulton, who is
generally considered TO be the best rife shot
in America. Bodine's feat of putting four
teen shots out of fifteen into the bull's-eye at
long range, and scoring 80 out of a possible
60 is SO marvellous, however, as to indicate
that chance reinforced skill in the matter.
The result of this contest and the remark
able skill exhibited will give new interest TO
the coming match, at Wimbledon, between
the Americans and the crack shots of all
England. 1t might seem that with the
range OF competition thus widened, our rifle
men have much more to dread in the COM
ing contest than they had in that of yester-
day. but il is doubtful If they will really
meet more formidable competitors at VIM
bledon than they encountered so success
fully at DOllymount. The Irish shots are in
The front rank of British marksmen, and two
OF the Irish team of yestcrday-Messrs
Mckenna and JOhnson-have made the
highest scores ever recorded on the Wimble-
don target, and Mr.. johnson in his trial
practice a few days ago exceeded the hereto
fore best score at Wimbledon of 2oS points
out of Do, by making Pts out of 22j. 1t is
apparent that if the Americans can at VIM
bledon keep up to the mark of their yester-
days achievement (and there is no reason
Why they should mott they have no great
reason TO fear the contest with call Eng

A doubt has occasionally arisen in the
minds of our people as to tho completion oil
the railroa to this place. The doubt seemed
to be u legitimate one. and founded
on good reasons. One of the principal OF
these WAS that there was not sufficient bust
ness on the road, to render the matter of its
completion an object of interest to ths com
pany. The following statement, however,
will put to an end all question on that point.
4 freight train on thia road in one day brought
to Altus 900 900 pounds of freight for mer'
chants of Van Buren and Fort Smith. This
is only for one day. and is of course. above
the average amount received. But We pre-
sumo to say, that at this time OF the year, at
least, one-half of the amount mentioned
above, is daily received. Our streets are fill
ed with wagons every day, bringing freight
from the railroad.
Again. At this season of the year large
quantities of produce and cotton are shipped
from this part of the State, every pound OF
which would he sent by the railroad IL it was
completed II now goes by boat down the
river, The company have watched this. and
they arc becoming anxious to complete the
road.
