Thanks.

We have to tender our thanks to the following parties for favors shown us:
 To MR. G. F. WILLIAMSON, for some of the very finest eating apples we have seen or tasted for long time. They are equal to any apples that can be grown anywhere, and we don't see why there is not more attention given to orchards, when such fruit as this can be grown here.
 To MR. TRAVIS SMITH, for a very large, fine and delicious musk-mcl- on. It was good enough, Tray, and we hope your whole crop may prove as good all through as your melon crop.
 To MR. ALBERT BRADLEY, for a brag head of millet which is worth q good deal as sample of what the soil Of Arkansas will produce. This head, MT. E. says is perhaps not the largest he could have picked, but still it is eight and half inches long. How will that do?
 To MR. VIM. GALLOWAY, of Norris town, for one of the longest, kcen- est, slimcst, slickcst, snakyest-look- ing cucumbers we have ever seen, or ever expect to see. If you want CUCUMBERs BY THE YARD, just call on us now and we can supply you. for the specimen sent us by Mir, Galloway measures just FIFTY INCHES LONG. If anybody can beat this lei him speak up.

For the benefit of sellers, as we'll as those who buy hides, We re- produce from the St. Louis Price Current and Trade Journal, the fol- lowing hints on the classification of hides:
 Green hides are those which are sent in just as they come from the animal, never paving been salted.
 Part cured are hides that have been salted, bat not long enough to be thoroughly cured.
 Green salted are those that have been salted and arc thoroughly cured. To cure a hide thoroughly will require from twelve to twenty days, according to tlie thickness of

the hide and the temperature of the weather. The loss of weight from the green state is from F to 20 per cent.
 Dry flint is thoroughly dry hide, that had not been salted.
 Dry saltcd is a thoroughly dry hide, having been salted while green
 In green salted hidcs and skins, those weighing less than lbs are called deacons; s to Ii lbs, calf; II to 20 lbs, if plump, kip; but if thin and poor, they are called runners or murrians, aud are sold it the price of hides; ali above 20 lbs arc called hides.
 A green salted hide is understood to be thoroughly cured, free from salt, dirt, meat, horns, tail, bones and sincws, and before being weigh ed, all such substances are removed. or a deduction is made from the weight, and when the head skin hangs to the hide by narrow strip, it is cut off before weighing. All bull, stag, tainted, cut, badly scared grubby or murrain hides are called damaged, and go at two- thirds price, unless they are very badly damaged, when they are class ed as glue stock at much lower price.
 A deduction of 10 per cent. made on all branded hides.
 In dry hides there arc other kinds of damaged, such as moth-caten, sun-burnt or weather-beaten
 It is ge ,eratly conceded by tan ners and hide dealers that over one third of the value of the hides taken off in the northwest is lost by care less skinning and curing.
 AS large proportion of the hides received are green salted, the price they bring, as a rule, is made the standard for the price of all other kinds.

OUITMAN COLLEGE.
To the editor of the DEMOCRAT:

HUFFMAN COI3ITL1IIs
 To the editor of the DEMOCRAT.
 I wish through your columns 10 present the claims of Quitman College to the friends of cduca- tion. Education is knowledge ac- quircd; knowledge is power; to give . child knowledge Is to give t power; without education he can have neither. The educated man is the educated child devel- opcd. Children of today are the men and women of tomorrow. The work ofparents to-dny is, to shape to-morrow's society. Ev- cry parent is morally bound to help in the makeup of good so- ciety; and fnrthur, he is account able to God for the kind of mate rial he furnishes. But, where shall I send? l would answer: First, send to school from home, secondly, send from home to school. In the first case, children need and have the advice of par ents, in the second, they learn to appreciate that advice, by consid- ering the source. To who shall I send9 I answer, To q teacher, who makes christian education the one thing ncedful; train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.-Prov. 22~vi. Therefore, l would say to all who desire to send off to school, and do not feel able to send to the Fe- male College, at Little Rock, or cast of the Mississippi river, that | l know of no institution of learn ing in the state, wich offers such advantages to all classes, to get a liberal and thorough education, than are now offered at Quitman, by the President, the Rev. Jas. A. Peebles, A. M., and his noble corps of teachers. This institu- tion belongs to the Arkansas Con ference, and by the skillful man agemcnt of the president, it has been guided and brought safely over the shoals, at which many institutions of like nature have wrecked, and stands today freed from all disabilities, with her doors thrown wide for the recept- ion of the rich and the poor, on the 1st Monday in September, 1876, the beginning of the Fall session.
 will name only a few of it's many advantages: society IS VERY good; health unsurpassed; it is freer from temptations to vice and intemperance than any place in the state; children entering this school are taken into the heart of the president and his accomplish ed lady, and are cared for and treated as a member of the fami- ly; board, including washing, room, fuel, lights, &c., can be had in good families at from $S to SIP per month. Tuition from $1.5O to $4.50 per month. All who de- sire furthur information on this subject, are requested to address the president, Rev. J. A. Pcebles, Quitmen, Van Buren Co.,, Ark.
 The fall session begins the first Monday in Sept. 1876.
