When a gentleman in China feels desirous of taking unto him self wife he sends to the pattern al head of some family containing daughters for specimens of the size of thier feet, with prices at trched. One fool is valued at per haps $2,000, the next smallest at 5000, and so on, according to the market. After the foot. or the la dy to whom it belongs, is chosen, she is sent in q sedan chair to the intended husbands esuse. He meets her at the door, looks into the vehicle to take a view of the far one, and if she suits his taste he admits her. As soou as she passes his threshold sho becomes his lawful wife; but if he likes the lady not, he shuts the door and she is carried whence she came.
 The largest houring mill in America is owned by Hon. c. c. Washburne, of Minneapolis, Minn. It is seven stories high, and crowded with machinery from top to bottom. It's cost was $300,- 900, has forty run of burrs and turns out 1000 barrels of flour per day.

The Des Arc Citizen com plains of fearful dearth of news.
 The Ft. Smith New Era an nounces the death of the town re corder, A. Gilbert Mayors.
 The Little Rock correspond ent of Rowclrs Newspaper Report CT gives the Weekly Grange a huge puff.
 The Arkansas Sentinel claims that Fayetteville has the finest and best Post Office accommoda- tions in the state.
 The Star of Hope has la ment over the poor dorg, on ac- count of the passage of the dog law.
 The editor of the Jackson port Herald has received a dozen "yeller legged chickens on sub scription and proposes to live high for a while.
 The Bonneville Enterprise calls the work of our Legislature "a world of fog and repeal of Gantt's Digest"
 The Van Buren Press wants that town to be the southern ter minus of the Fayetteville Rail road. You are too far West, neighbor; if the new road deviates from the shortest route they had better tap the Ft. Smith road at this place.
 The Searcy Record, which has kept up such an unceasing attack upon the Iron Mountain Rail Road, takes the defeat of the Railroad law very calmly. After all, we imagine the Railroad has been great benefit to the state and consequently to the Record.
 THE SOUTHERN INDusTRIEs.- We have received the first nun Der of paper ofthis name. It is published simultaneously at Nash vile, Tenn, Montgomery, Ala and Atlanta, Ga, and is intended to supply information to the i'm migrant as to the natural advan tages of the South. We wish it large circulation. Terms only 5( cents pr year.

CURsING.-In Maine, Sunday cursing is taxed two dollars per oath; on week days the rate is lowered to only one dollar per oath. The law is rigid, and the proceeds, when collected, are to go toward founding a lunatic asylum.-Ex.
 There has long been a statute in this State making it an offense for which the fine is one dollar for each oath uttered, but we have never yet heard of a man being fined under the law. If it was enforced and tie fines collected and applied as 1t is above stated they do in Maine, we would soon have a lunatic asylum with an endowment sufficient to support it without any expense to the State.

Right this way, Gentlemen!

Ninety mechanics and artisans with their families have emigra- ted from Pennsylvania and settled on Hood river, Oregon, and over 300 will follow in the spring. They intend building a college, a woolen mill, grist mill, and educational and industrial estab- lishments.-EX.
 That 300 and over would do we'll before going to Oregon, or any other place, to send an agent to Arkansas to look at our country. Beyond all doubt or question, Ar kansas has now entered upon a period of improvement, progress and peace, which with her unsur- passed natural resources, render her the most desirable field in the Union for the location of such 8 colony as above referred to.
 Come right this way, gentlemen, and look at our country and you will seek no further. We have all that you want-every element of wealth, greatness and prosperity. We need you to help develop our immense resources, and you need the rich reward which awaits honest industry and capital in our State. Come right along!

 A HUGE land swindle has been brought to light in Missouri, in which prominent citizens of Shan non county are implicated. These crooked real estate men have been forging deeds to land in northern Arkansas and south east Missouri for some years, and had agencies established in Gin cinnati, Pitsburg, Philadelphia, New York and Manchester, Eng land. It is estimated that deeds of over twelve million acres of land have been forged and dispos- ed of, the valuation being $25, ,000, 900 or $30.000,000. The land operated upon is owned by non residents, and, as the records were mostly destroyed during the civil war, the ring had every facility to carry out the enormous swindle, and the deeds have been soled all over the United States and in England. The grand jury of shannon county has indicted Dr, Thomas K. Harmon, David s. Bingham and James NJ. Lawton for complicity. Lawton seems to have been the executive man, and operated extensively in England The dnpes of these way, many millions of dollars have been cckcted. Gazette.

American vs. English Manu-

Many United States iron and hardware manufacturers are push ing their products in Australia and New Zealand to much advantage. The London Ironmonger says :: "The worst of it is that not a few of the American goods are declar- ed, as to quality, to surpass our own;" while a Melbourne agent of firm of Birmingham mer- chants writes to his principals that American iron goods are far superior to English made, and lat terly they have been much cheap CT. When all sorts of American made goods now in this market are seen and sold, the buyer or user will never again look at En- glish made articles of the same class"
