Fast Young Men In New York.

This class Of young men Is steadily
augmenting in New York. They will
not labor in any way. II was enough
for their fathers 70 do that. The family
estate is large, and are they not entitled
to share OF II? An allowance of three
to five thousand q year Is reasonable
enough, is it not? They lounge at the
clubs. dine at Delmonico's, stroll on
Fifth avenue, play billiards at the Wind.

rule they are not actually dissipated. ia

but their wine bills are not small ones by
any means; and what they spent for
cigars would easily keep a small family
in moderate comfort. X. II. Macy, the
Sixth avenue dry goods merchant. who
died in Paris few weeks ago, leaving
$500 900 to his family. cut off his only
son with an allowance Of 81 900 year,
solely because the young man had grown

for a somewhat similar reason that Com

Nathan bows were also wild and extrava-

of trouble in this way. 1t would be easy

general fact is sufficient. The case OF

OSCEOLA, ARKANSAS, SATURDAY JUNE 1877.

This canal and the accompanying works cost
something over OO,OO,, and at one time the
power was used for propelling the machinery
as well as exposing the deposits. Some two
hundred stamps are now at work, with vary
ing success, but all OF them, it is believed, at
a reasonable profit In the village Of Dab
lonega small mill is worked by steam the
water for working the ore is pumped from
the shaft itself. The excavation is about
ninety feet deep, and the ore yields from 81
to so per ton. The little mill Yields from
twenty-five to eighty five ounces of gold per
week, an average, in round numbers, of $50,
per week. The cost of mining, crushing and
smalgamating the ore is less than thirty cents
per ton, and hence the profit is highly satis-

Irrigating the dry lands of Colorado
from wells, by windmill power has been
recently found practicable by a farmer, near

In the case of Poindexter Edmundson,
who was to have been hanged for murder
Wednesday, at Broomfcld, Mo-, and whose
execution was deferred by order of the gov
ernor till next August, there has been very
strange development. 1t appears that a
half.witted brother of Edmundson murdered
William Shaw, and Poiudexter allowed HIM
self to be convicted and sentenced for the
crime rather than his unfortunate brother.
The latter died few days ago, and on his
death-bed gave a circumstancial account Of
how and where he murdered shaw.
The letter of Gov. Emory of Utah to
the secretary of war, asking for an increase
of troops in the territory, has been referred
to General Sherman to inquire into the
matter and report upon the necessity of in
creasing the military force. General Crook
has not had an opportunity to inquire into
these Mormon troubles, but the letter will
probably be referred to him by General
sherman when he returns to this city. Gen
eral Crook will then go to L tab for the pur-
pose of consulting with Governor Emory,
and il, in his opinion, any real necessity
exists for increasing the force, the additional
troops VIII be ordered to that territory.

We give below communication which
was written by talented little girl of the
Carswell Institute, as an exercise for the
rhetoric class of that institution:
Mr.. EDITOR: By your permission, Twill
give the readers of your valuable paper a
brief account of the re- opening of our be-
loved school-the Carswell Institute.
After a short intermission of about six
weeks, all the pupils re-assembled with
joyous hearts and bright hopes to resume
the studies we had so reluctantly laid aside
for few weeks. But owing to the inclem-
ency OF the weather on Monday, the hon.
ored instructors failed to return from their
ministerial duties. So, the next day being
bright and sunny, as were our hearts. we all
after great deal of kissing (indulged in
only by the girls) and hand-shaking, en-
tered the school room, there to be greeted
by the presence and cheerfulness of our
much-loved instructors. After fervent
prayer, made by Mr.. Walters, we were en-
tertained for few moments by one of our
pupils, Mr.. David Ramsey, who delivered a
very handsome and eloquent original ed
dress, urging the pupils to redouble their
energies, and to prosecute their studies with
increased diligence. After some other re-
marks we were all assigned to our respec.
tive duties.
The want of space forbids me writing and
more Long may the Institute flourish

THE NEW YORK CASH STORE.

We would ask the attention of our readers
to the advertisement of Messrs. Arnstein q
Rose, which appears in this paper. Any
one Who doubts the cheapness of Anderson
as q purchasing market for dry goods can
easily be convinced by reading the list of
prices ,offered at this store. Mr.. Arnstein
spent several months during the summer
season in the Northern markets for the pur-
pose of laying in stock of goods to suit the
varied wants of their customers. Themes
ure of his success is fully demonstrated by
the popularity of their store and the pros
porous business it is doing. When in An.
derson do not miss the opportunity of call
ing at this stone and inspecting the line of
goods you wish to purchase, for the obliging
proprietors are always willing to show their
goods to those desiring to purchase in this
market.

subject was most ably discussed in sermon
of an hour and three-quarters in length.
During this time the large audience that
had assembled for the purpose Of listening
to the discussion of this all important sub
ject were kept almost spell-bound, with the
exception of the whine of baby or two.
Judging from the profoundncss of the Doc
tors philosophy, the inyincibleness of his
logical reasoning and the clearness. of his
diction-all based upon scriptural facts-in
connection with the earnestness and elo-
quence of his delivery, the ideas advanced
must have undoubtedly carried conviction
to every heart. We hope much good may
result.
