as compared to SS to 90 per cent. in the Pennsylvania anthracite, and 45 to D per cent. in the west ern bitumlnous; an excellent proof of it's merit, showing that it is almost equal to the anthracite and far superior to the soft, dirty, bituminous coal. The company will spare no money to bring tile coal up to it's worth, and it will within q year double it's force of miners and better it's producing facilities. Near the mines, ard owned by the company, is the eel cbrdted Dwight's Mission iron orc field, the ore of which is reported by Dr. David Dale Owen, in his Resources of Arkansas, to equal the finest Swedish ore. A com pany is now organizing to open the iron mine, and we sincerely trust will realize it's most sanguine expectations.

INTERNATIONAL ExHIBI.
 TON 1876.
Pope Co. Centennial Board.

| Those of our citizens who take any pride in the public-spirited movement will be glad to learn that Mir Geo. E. Dodge, our State Centennial Commissioner paid oul county visit on Tuesday and af- ter consultation with some of oul citizens made selection of a Conn- ty Centennial Board for our coun- | ty. Mir. Dodge is working faith fully to have our state properly represented at this, the greatest international exhibition of the century, and he is anxious that every county shall make an exhib- it of her merits through her pro ducts and natural resources, min erals, timber, &c. It is to be hop ed that our citizens will appreciate the efforts being made to place our good qualities in a most conspicu- ous light where they will be seen and known by millions, and that they will heartily do all in their power to enable our state commis- sioner to make a creditable show ing. This they can do by stimu- lating our people to make such an exhibition of our different indus tries, our mineral and timber, and any thing else worthy of notice, as will tend to make the exhibition a success.
 The bestproducts of our county should be represented, and any one having such should forward them to the County Board at this place, for transmittal to our State Commissioner.
 It will cost nothing and tho benefit resulting from creditable display cannot be estimated.
 The following gentlemen con stitute the county board:
 JAS. E. BArrENFrELD,
 JAS. W. RUSSELL,
 JAS. NJ. HARKEY,
 W. B. YoUNG,
 B. T. EMERY,
 JAS. l. PoTTs,
 Committee. HoN. c. F. ToBEY,
 HoN. N. D. SHINN,
 Advisory Members. Each member of this Board should make it their business to stimulate an interest in this mat ter, and the citizens of the county should not hang back to place a proper display of the products of the county in their hands.
 We can make a good showing ii we will.
 Shall it be done?

Prof. Moses Letter.

Elsewhere will be found a polite letter from Prof. Robt. w. Moses in regard to his appointment of beneficiaries to the A. 1. U.
 We hope MT. Moses did not un- derstand us as censuring him for his action in this matter, for we never have entertained any idea that he would attempt to assume to exercise powers not given to him by law. We knew very we'll that it was owing altogether to the fact that the Professor had not seen the new law, which, ir- deed very few have had an oppor- tunity to become acquainted with. Elsewhere we give the substance of the latest enactments on this subject. And while on this sub ject we wish to again remark that it is very much to be regretted that there is not some better pro- vision made whereby the masses of the people may become ac- quainted with the laws under which they live. It would cer- tainly be wlse and wholesome provision to put it within the reach ofevery citizen to be posted on the. laws. This can easily be done by providing for the publi- cation of the acts of the general assembly in the newspapers of the state, and it certainly can be done at very little additional cost.
 We thank Mir. Moses for his kind expressions toward the DEMOCRAT and shall always be glad-more than glad-to have a communication from him.

Miles Standish from the first class boot and shoe house of Hill, Terry & Mitchell, Memphis Tenn, was in town Saturday Miles sells first class goods and as low as anybody.
 A large number of spectators witnessed the match game of base ball between the R. E. Lee club of this place and the Atkins club on last Thursday. Among the spectators we noticed Mir. Geo. R. Williams and Henry Mayors oi Dardanelle.
 Sheriff Petty and Mir. Reese Hogan returned from White O., Friday with their man Osborne, whom it will be remembered was deeply implicated in the murder of old man McAllaster the latter part of last year.
 Our professional men who expect the patronage of the pub lie should have public spirit enough, and appreciation of the public patronage enough to solic- it the same through an advertise ment in the DEMOCRAT.
 FISHER BRos. < Co.-Through the courtesies of this staunch St. Louis firm we have been favor ed with a list of the premiums offered by the St. Louis Cotton Exchange for the best cotton. In another place we refer more at length to the handsome premiums offered. The location of Messrs. Fisher Bros. & Co.,, is 206 and POS North Commercial street, St. Louis, Mo.

Handle Your Cotton Carefully.

As tLe season for cotton pick ing is almost at hand it may not be amiss to again caution our cotton growers against careless ness in picking and ginning their cotton.
 The ruling price for the staple is going to be low and unless cot ton is so handled as to make it command the best figures, the producer will hardly realize cost of production. Our advice is to commence picking as soon as the cotton opens and keep as nearly up as possible. Keep dry and in good order until ginned and ready for market. It will be fatal mistake to allow your cotton to stand in the patch until frost bitten and stained and until bad weather comes on. One hand can pick more in one day and save it in better order early in season while the weather is good, than two hands can in December or January. We had just as we'll send nice clean bright staple to market and obtain full figure as to send "dog-tail," "stained' and inferior" cotton and get almost nothing. In this connection we mention that the St. Louis Cotton Exchange offers the following large premiums for cotton.
 For the best bale grown in Ar kansas $450. For 2d best $2OO. For Sd best $l0O. Cotton of the present crop only can compete, and bales must not weigh under 400 pounds.
 We think our river planters should compete for these premi- ums as much as a matter of pride and honor to our county as for the premiums. We can produce very superior staple and ifproper- ly handled and ginned we believe that our cotton will bear compe- tition with the best.

The Mines and Minerals O1
 Pope County.

We clip the subjoined notice oi the Ouita Coal Mines near this place from the Gazette;
 One of the most successful min ing companies in this state is the Ouita Coal company of this city, The mines are near Russellville, and are the richest yet developed. Its directors are Hon. D. E. Jones, J. T. Trezevant, jr., Thomas Laf- ferty, Judge J. R. Allen, E. Fltz- gerald, Dr. D. H. Dungan and J. W. Austin; president, J. T. Trezevant, jr.; managing director, Thomas Latierty; who have, not. withstanding the unprecedented hard times, kept the mines at work, employing at present thirty experienced miners. The mines have been in operation three years, doubling it's product each year. By supplying this city, it has reduced the price of coal from SIP to $7 per ton, and brought wood down from $6.50 to $3.5O per cord. Three car loads are shipped daily to St. Louis, via this city, at present being delay ed by transfer, but it is the inten- tion of the Iron Mountain Rail- way company to erect hoisting apparatus at it's junction with the Fort Smith road, for the transfer of trucks, thus avoiding all delay. The coal is equal to any and su- perior to most of the coal produc- ed west of the Alleghanies, and finds a ready and profitable mar ket, being used extensively for domestic purposes, and in the bakeries and furnaces. It is used by the ferryboat, and print ing offices of this city, with very gratifying results. It contains S3 to S5 per cent. of fixed carbon,

 That Game of Ball.

Last Thursday in the afternoon, Our town was in such puffs, To play the game of base ball, Against the Atkins Roughs. All the town of Russellville, Old, young, large and small, Marched out to the playground, To see that game of bal. The Russellvillians met the train, That came at twelve-half past, And then the Roughs relenting tho't "We've met our match at last" For sure the men who dress so neat And 'put on so much style" Might play base ball with any one, And beat them-ssby mile." They took them in the dining-room, And treated them so nice; The Atkinsites began to think, They'd like to play them twice. WI Sii, cVOi tifc iOui iobCu iOuuu, Appointed for the game; So the players took their stands, And began to play the same. Oh, how proud our people looked, When the boys came along; fblue, In checks, steel buttons and belts of And looked so very strong. Poor old Atkins felt ashamed, When they saw the ladies smile, And whisper to their neighbors, "Did you ever see such style?" But as the game progressed along, tell you twas no fun To see the way the ruffians, Could beat them on a.run. And so the end of this big game, Can easily be told, The k. E. Lees walked back to town Too conscious they were sold. And have heard-but cannot say, If it be true or no, That only two of K. K. Lees Ventured to the depot To take their tea. But don't know, I'll say no more at all; But declare, really think, Twas a jolly game of ball.

Shall it be done?

DOVER, Aug. 23d, 1875.
 MR. EDITOR: When I appoint ed the young gentlemen-Messrs. Russell and Tucker as beneficial ries to the Ark. Industrial Uni versity I was not aware that any change had been made in the appointing of beneficiaries-nor am yet as all l have seen on the subject was in your brief notice of the fact and wherein you ex press doubt in regard to the matter.
 The beneficlaries have hereto fore been appointed by the Go. Supts. .-.I am sorry if I have mis- led the young gentlemen and have written for information on the subject and will inform them as soon as l obtain it. Meanwhile your advice to them in regard to buying ''too many new clothes" is good wheth CT they go or remain at home as too great love for fine clothes is almost incompatible with mental attachments of high order. l like your newspaper though not a subscriber, owing to the fact that l shall change my ''locus," but when do, hope to take it for it's local news and will then give you an occasional communication if you so desire. With compliments l am your Obt. Servt.,

 Umpire-Jno. Battenfield. Scorer-Jas. II. Shinn. Time of game-2 hours and 30 min-
 utes.

 R. E. Lee times. Runs earned--Atkins 1; R. F. Lee 5. Total fielding errors--Atkins IS; k.
 k. Lee II.
 The grounds were in good or and lively interest was mani fested by all the players during the entire game.
 There was a large turnout of spectators, and many ladies grac- ed the occasion with their pres ence. This of course made some of the boys little '.fidgety" and they perhaps did not do as we'll as tn y have often done ip ordina- ry practice.
 Some very pretty playing was done, and some excellent batting. Mir. Will Mourning, of the Atkins nine. on the second base caught some very swift balls from Embry, pitcher, in a most dextrous man. ner.
 The success of the Atkins nine was evidently due in a very great measure to the close watching and excellent directions which the players constantly received from their captain, Aylett Embry. Each side got one 'white-wash," the Atkins on the Sd and the R. E. Lee on the lst inning.
 The very best of feeling pre- vailed after the game was over
 The Atkins nine desire to re- turn special thanks to the Umpire for his fair, impartial decisions.
 We are indebted to the scorer for the correct score above given.
