Take the Papers.

Why don't you take the papers? They're the life of my delight; Except about election time,
 And then l read for spite. Subscribe, you cannot lose a cent Why should you be afraid? For cash thus paid is money lent On interest fourfold paid. Go, then, and take the paper,
 And pay to-day, nor pay delay, And my word it is inferred.
 You'll live till you are gray. An old newspaper friend of mine, While dying with a cough, Desired to hear the latest news,
 While he was dying of. took the paper and read
 Of some new pills in force, He bought q boX--and is he dead! No. o.-hearty as horse. knew a printers debtor once,
 Hacked with shocking fever, Who swore to pay her bebt next day If her distress would leave her. Next morning she was at her work, Diyested of her pain, But she forgot to pay her debt,
 Till taken down again. "Here, Jessie, take these silvel
 wheels,
 And pay the printer now !" She slept, and slept, and then awoke With health upon her brow. | knew two men, as much alike
 As CT you see two stumps, And no phrenologist could find
 A difference in their bumps. One takes paper, and his life
 Is happier than kings; His children all can read and write And talk of men and things. The other took no paper, and While strolling through the wood A tree fell down, broke his crown
 And killed him every good" Had he been reading of the news,
 At home like neighbor Jim, 1 I'll bet Il cent that accident D.
 Would not have happened him.

Count the Cost.

Count the Cost. Count the cost of all thy actions,
 When thou dealest with mankind, Scorning not the lesser traditions
 Of the pocket or the mind. Purchase not vain adulation
 At Integrity's expense: 'Tis a losing speculation
 To thy character and sense. Be not caught by worldly splendor : Pride and pomp are snares at best, Luring weddings to surrender
 Certain good for sure unrest. Count the cost of idle pleasure;
 Shun it's smooth, insidious friends Guard thy moments as treasure Held in trust for better en s. Cut acquaintance with Ambition
 Ere thy better motives rust; Honor manhood's high commission ; To thy fellow-man be just. Have thy riches so invested
 That constant balance stands To thy credit, safe and tested,
 In the Great Accountants hands. Count the cost to deaths grim portal Give and get true work and worth : Serve thy GOD and fellow-mortal
 And thy days are good on earth.
 Is machine girl much better than a hand maid? Yes; sew much.

Being unable to purchase commercial fer tilizers, the only alterna tive left is to up lines and move West, even making innovations upon the poor Indian in search of virgin soil, devastating as they go, taxing the land to it's utmost ca pacity anualiy; not satisfied with this heavy drain upon it's vital en- ] ergies-so to speak--but is care full to cut, rake and burn all the debris, leaving nothing but a mea- gre portion of alkili, and to facili- tate its exit into the mammoth reservoir, cultivation mp and down hill is practiced, the residue pas ses away in. vapor. There is no system of rest, rotation or turning under green sward to endeavor to restore vegetable mould and place humus in the soil.

 1 Well, but some may say, I am going beyond my bail-wick; let us come to old Pope then. But for the present I will forbear point ing out the malpractice in agri- culture, which are too apparent, from some allusions Incorporated in the above to need further com ment. The imaginative reader is no doubt expecting the rislbil- ity of this article to become more apparent in the futile attempt te show or set forth the remedy.
 Now to the point in question What we term land or soil is com. posed of certain elements or in gradients, such as vegetable mould, humus, amonia, carboliC acid, lime, soda, salt, &c.

In shor if ever our depleted farms are re cuperated and restored to fertilit, it will be by we'll directed ant judicious system of rest, rotation and turning under green sward there is the remedy-in thre words-controvert it if you can , It will require time, patience, per severance, and great sacrifice Stop a moment and think, fo sooner or later we will be compell ed to think and act.

THE DEMOCRAT is thoroughly in dependent in its course. under no pledge or covenant to support the schemes or fortunes of any man or set of men, always having at heart first, the good of the people of Pope county, and of the state of Arkan sas. It claims no right to lead or direct in politics, or any other sphere; but it does claim the right, and will fearlessly and at all times assert it, to speak it's own opinions, on all matters coming within the scope of it's duty as an independent journal. Whatever prominence it maintains in the affairs of this county or State, will be voluntarily accorded by the people who support it. In short the DEMOCRAT wishes to be judged solely upon it's own merits as local and state newspa- per, having for its chief object the dissemination of the news of the day with such comments upon current topics as seem appropriate and are conscientiously entertained by it's
 
 management. It will heartily sup port all movements, political or otherwise, which promise to fur thur, and unhesitatingly oppose those which would jeopardize, the interests of the people. In every department it will be as enterpris- ing as its patronage will justify. Sensible men will approve the busi- ness management that limits expen- allure to the bounds of income; on- ly fools or enemies expect q degree of excellence in all points that can alone be attained by the possession of resources and income.

Ason orthe Ola Soaking.

A London journal writes thus of a
Norwegian, who seems to have lost
nothing of the indomitable courage and
energy of his old Morse ancestors:
Perhaps there is no greater test of
heroic courage than voluntary en-
counter with great perils alone, where
an escape from those perilS has been
opened, of which others have availed
themselves. Such heroism has been
recorded this week in the case of a
Norwegian Captain, Captain Adder
Hansen, who, on the 7th of October
left GefIe with cargo of iron and deals
for England, and whose bark encoun-
tered, on the 10th of October, so fear
full gale that all the pumps Were disa-
bled, the ships side injured, and a
great deal of the deck-load washed
away. On the goth of Octobera smack
came in sight, and Captain Hansens
crew, not believing the vessel could
live, left him with his bark rolling
mostfearfully. The Captain remained
alone, in the hope of getting his bark
into Grimsby, in which he finally sue
ceeded. Alone he managed to set the
foresail and mainsail, and to light the
side lights and the binnacle-light, and
then steered toward the west. He was
50 fatigued that he several times fell
down from sheer WEAKNESS, and during
the night he had several squalls. The
cabin was full of water, which did much
damage, as it rolled with the rolling of
the vessel and, when he got the bark
into Humber, Captain Hansen's
strength was all spent. That seems
to us, in its way, greater feat, be-
cause a l0nelier feat, than many a
pilot-boat rescue, in which the imme-
date peril was far more threatening.
The courage of group of associates
is always much greater than the sum
of the courage which each individual
in the group would separately ex-
hibit"
