Our neighber town across the riv- CT, has again suffered another fiery odeal. At about O'clock a. m. Monday, fire broke out in the building of Freed, which being an old frame, was like finder for the flames which spread with alarming rapidity to the adjoining buildings The entire row on the side of the street next to the river was con- sumed. There were some six or seven store houses in this row. The fire did not stop here, however, for the street being very narrow and the town destitute of all appliances for combating the flames, the build ings on the opposite side soon caught fire and were swept away by the fury of the fire.
 The loss Is estimated at about $l00.000. Among the sufferers was our esteemed contemporary, Dr. McGuire. The Independent office was total loss. and ah unfortunate fall of the Doctor from the second story of the building, cansing seri- ous injury, added to his calamity. Wo sympathize with all the suffer- CTS, and especially with our friend McGuire.
 F. S. Since writing the above we find that we are mistaken about the fire originating in the store house of Mr. Freed. The fire was first dis covered in the upper story of a frame building two doors south of Mir. Breeds,

 Why do people so frequently say to Dr. Pierce. {" l suppose your Golden Medical Discovery cures every thing? Because it has been the practice of knavish charlatans to manufacture worthless nost.ums and attempt to dupe the ignorant and credulous by recommending them to cure every form of disease. To such an extent has this been practiced that it is no wonder that many have acquired prejudices against all advertised remedies. But Dr. Pierce does not advertise his standard preparations as ''cure- alls," does not claim that they will perform miracles, but simply pub fishes the fact that they have been developed as specifics for certain forms of disease for which he re- commends them, after having tested their efficacy in many hundred cases with the most gratifying success. It is q fact known to every well-in- formed physician that many single remedies possess several different properties. Quinine, TOT instance, has tonic quality, which suggests it's use in cases of debility; an anti periodic, by which it is efficacious in ague; and febrifuge property, which renders it eificacious in cases of fever. The result of it's admin istration will also vary with the quantity given and the circumstances under which it is employed. So, likewise, the Golden Medical Dis covery possesses b.th pectoral and alternative, or blood-cleansing prop critics of the highest order. By reason of these two prominent prop critics 1t cares two classes of diseases First, those of the respiratory or gans, as throat, bronchial, and lung affections, chronic coughs and asth- ma, and second, diseases of the blood and glandular system, in which affections all skillful physici- ans employ alternatives, as in case. Of blotches, eruptions, ulcers, swel. lings, tumors, abscesses, and in tor DOT of the liver or "billiousness. T While its use is, by it's combination of properties, suggested in cases oi pulmonary consumption, yet you need not take it expecting it will cure you if our lungs are half con sumed, nor because il is recommend ed as blood medicine would its proprietor advise you to take it ex pecting it to cure concer. It will not perform miracles, but it vii cure many grave forms of disease.

County Papers.

There was never time m all the history of Arkansas when the country press exhibited more ac- tivity and enterprise than the present. It is true that some of our exchanges have been hard pressed; with Q few the wolf has been at the door, but almost with out exception they say to the peo- pie, in the language of the Beebe M agnet, "We intend to stick. " Do the people know the profit which comes from all active and cordial support of the countynews- paper? Do they realize the fact that the money which they ex- pend in supporting their news paper comes back to them . hun dred fold in the growing lntelli gence, the increased business and general prosperity of the publici Don't say your paper is little and dearer than the great Eastern weeklies, but go to work and make it larger and more attrac- tive and more useful. Support your own schools, your own mer- chants, your own manufacturers, but most of all, your own papers. Let every man in Arkansas re- member that if he would be in. telligent, if he would have an in telligent family, If he would assist in calling attention to his immc- diate local interests and so add to the general advancement ol the State, he should do his best to sustain his county paper.

 Prof. ". II. Greer, late of De sota, Mo-, and more recently of Moreland, this county, where he has been conducting very sue ccssful school, paid hls respects to the DEMOCRAT office last Satur- day.
 Here's what the Gazette has to say concerning our representa- tive in the State Legislature:
 Our eontempory the Russellville DEMOCRAT asks us if we have yet observed Mr. Davis, the rep1esen- tative of chaivalrous old Pope. Aye, that we have, and heard him too, express his convictions and opinions with a boldness and freedom worthy of the representa- tive ofa constituency whose fight ing qualities are known through out the length and breadth of the State.

 Since the Democrat at Lonoke and Russellville read us lecture on the question of the electoral nessen- ger, they have ceased to come to our office. Is that the system of warfare they wage, strike blow and lodge the reboundy Or did the rebound disfraternise us with our respected cotemporaries and namesakes? As rule we try to be gentle and legiti- mate in our discussions with the press, but we did not sin against recognized ethics In our reioinder: but really the simultaneous discon- tinuance of the two exchanges is a coincidence almost as remarkable as that displayed in their criticism upon the messenger ques- tion. Don't pout brethren That is too much like children.-Texar- kaEa Democrat.
 See here, Brother Wooten, haven't you got the wrong sow by the ear? If we ever noticed your objections to the appointment of Mir. Duiin as electoral messenger ito read you lecture" thereon, we fail to find any record of it in the files of our paper. We therefore demur to the above squib of yours so far as 1t applies to this paper. If you do not receive this paper regularly and promptly it is altogether the fault of the mails, for it is started to you bright and early every Thursday morning. We hope you may receive it regul ir!y, and we don't think you will ever find it either "disfraternizing," ''dodging" nor "pouting."
