Wanted at the Fair.

The sentiment in the aDncxed stanzas, it. is presumed, will show the feeling of the average boy wLo Iattends the foro coantv fair: A boy upon the fair grounds looked and laughed Tt everything, His wants were. oh so many, and thus
 the boy did sing: I want to sec the horses as they speed
 along the track; I want to hear the marShal's shout to
 keep the people back; I want to sec the trotters, the famous
 Goldsmith Maid; want to see the boys who ride and
 never seem ;iiraid; want to sec the men who bst and on
 race ssinvcst; I want to see the fieetest horse come
 bounding first and best; I want to see the judges fair, impartial
 to decide: I want to sec the right advanced and wrong I want dcn;ed, want to see the pictures in the gal lery of art; I want to see the inside of a race before the start; want to see the cattle, and l want to see the sheep; I want to see the poultry, it the pigs l want peep; want to see machinery which the farmers love to view; I want to see the harrow, ploughs, and cultivalors, too; I want to see the people from the coun- try crowding past, want to see all they can see. and
 more-so hurry fast, I want to see the business men and
 what they have to show, I want to see the biggest thing in cab bages you know; I want to sec potatoes as large as Mars moons; 1 I want to see the pumpkins which in size swell to balloons; want to see the apples, peaches, pears, apd all the fruit; want to taste them just to know how
 well the flavcfs shit.

A Religious Pack or Cards.

A private soldier by the name of Richard Lee was taken before the magistrates of Glasgow, for playing cards during Divine service. The account of it is thus given:
 Sergent commanded the soldiers at the church, and when the parson had read the prayers, he took the text. Those who had bible took it out, but this soidier had neither bible nor common prayer-book; but pulling out pack of cards, he spread them out before him. He looked first at one card and then at another. The sergent saw him and said:
 "Richard, put up the cards: this is no place for them
 .'Never mind that" sad Richard.
 When service was over the con stable took Richard a prisoner, and brought hlm before the Mayor.
 "Well, what have you brought the soldier here for?' says the Mayor.
 For playing cards in church."
 "Well soldier, what have you to say for yourselfY'
 Much sir, hope"
 "Very good, ii not, will punish you more than ever man was pun ishcd."
 q have been," said the soldier, about six weeks on the march. l have no Bible or common prayer book; have nothing but pack of cards, and hope to satisfy your worship of the purity of my inten- tions"
 Then spreading the cards before the Mayor, he began with the ace
 sWhcn I sec the ace, it reminds me that there is but one God.
 "When I see the deuce, 1t reminds me of Father and Son.
 "When l see the three, it reminds me of Father, Son and Holy Ghost.
 "When l see the four it reminds me of the fonr evapgelists that  preached Mathew, Mark, Luke and John.

The WOrkingman's Greatest
 Enemy.

He who champions the cause of the workingman falls far short of his duty if he fails to warn him against one common enemy, the saloon. If you are not temperance man, there IS all the more req son why you should look this subject fairly in the face. The saloon is not an industrial concern. It neither feeds nor clothes you. It adds nci- thcr to your comforts nor enjoyments. It is a trap placed upon nearly every corner, to catch your money without giving q profitable return. It ab- sorbs portion of your earnings, and leaves you none the better for it, but very likely much the worse in nor als, health, pocket and self respect. You know that this is so, if you stop to think. The seeds of nun berless evils and none whateyero of good to mankind grow in these hot beds of corruption. We beg our friends, the workingmen, to avoid liquor saloons. If you can find no other society nor place of resort, you are indeed unfortunate; but better none than such as thus lower your manhood and your purse.-Califor- ma Agriculturist and Artisan.

village located in fertile section of country, though everything looked dull. one new store house and cotton gin being the only recent sign of improvement. The close of this day brought us in the vicinity of Hope, where we are now stopping . few days with NIT. John Allen, who with his amiable lady render their home a pleasant resort to all those who are fortunate enough to obtain place within their portals. We have visited Hole twice. This charming little city is located oa the dividing ridge between the waters of the Ouachita and Red Rivers. Less than four years ago the vcrdant grass was luxuriantly growing where now stands and fiourishes this beautiful town. No traces of mans industry were visible there, and to-day it numbers l,SO0 souls and contains we'll finished brick stores with several others under contract. At no distant day the county site of Hampstead Co, now located at the old town of Wash ington, will be at the thriving young city of Hope, which will add much to her importance. We have many reasons to believe that the good
 work of adding to her importance twill continue until she will spread out far and wide over Prairie De Roan, so much so that her most en- terprising citizens will be astounded at her proportions. While visiting Hope we were fortunate enOngl to stop with Mir. $. F. Power, who keeps a tirst-cla hotel there. l would recommend this house to the public as place where they will be most hospitably entertained ana upon as reasonable terms as any other hotel in the place.
 1 Since I left Pope l have seen no place I liked so well as Russellville, and would say to all those seeking a pleasant hone you will find it within her limits. She contains several business houses, one live newspaper, 1 churches, and sp!en- did school carried on by Prof. D. S.
 Patrick, who is thorough scholar and an experienced teacher. l will ever cherish the fondest recollections of many pleasant acquaintances l formed while in Russellville, some of whom hope are lifelong friends. As 1 have already overrun the limits of newspaper article l will bring my letter to close. Yours very kindly, 5. II.

LETTER. FROM HOPE CITY.
HopE, ARK, Sept. 26th, 1877.

HoPE, ARK, Sept 26th, 1877.
 To the Editor of the DEMOCRAT:
 One beautiful morning the first of this month your correspondent step ped into her hack b und for the s. W. portion of Ark. The morning was indeed lovely--the atmosphere was just the temperature to be pleas ant, the birds caroled forth notes of praise to their Creator. indeed all nature seemed to unite to render the day pleasant; bat l must say that the surrounding scenery was not in unison with my own feelings. Mem ory, sweet carrier bird of human happiness" had waited me pack to dear old Russellvilie and all her pleasant association, to the day when first made my arrival there, thinking then it was to be my home for life, but how tculy may we ex- claim that man proposes and God disposes." A thousand endearing scenes rushed voluntarily across my mind,-tlIe church 1 had so often frequented, our dear Pastor under the sound of whose voice 1 had so often sit and listened as he earnestly cxpounded the way of truth and life; the grave yard where over year ago l deposited the remains of my only darling son, all swept across my mind and was as truly painful as the separation from a dear friend. Oh! how often as the sun was shed ding his last rays on our favored globe have l fingered beside the sacred little mound, surrounded by the sleeping dead. To me it is the dearest of all earthly spots and though far away and will in ali prob ability never behold it again, yet l will often revert to it with the pleas ant thought that
 sswhen we all go home to our Fathers house,
 To our Fathers house in the skies;
 One of the joys of Heaven shall be
 The little boy that dcd'
 The solitude of these sad sweet memories were not intruded upon until we reached the river, and there by the loud coarse notes of the rerry- man, calling some of his fellow la borers to their posts. Here we were pleased to see the pleasant face of brother Crawford and several other gentlemen of Dardanelle, whose kind words and smiling countenan ces did much to cheer us up. After leaving Dardanelle we travelled sew eral miles through a nice level conn try which showed many signs of energy and industry. We passed several neat residences surrounded by well improved farms dotted over by superabundant crops of cotton and corn, but as we neared Fourche river the settlements became consid. erably less and very inferiorily im- proved. The close of our first days travel found us at the foot of Muddy mountain. We stopped with Mir. w.. who after much persuasion consent ed to take us in provided we would make ourselves no trouble. To this we readily consented for 1t was then near dark and several miles to the next house. l was greeted at the door by gawky barefooted girl,

ten, but five were wise and five were foolish, and were shut out.
 "When l see the SIX it reminds me that in six days the Lord made heaven and earth.
 "Wlien see the seven it reminds me that on the seventh day God rested from the great work he had made and haIlowed it.
 "When see the eight, it reminds me of the eight righteous persons that were saved when God destroyed the world, viz: Noah and his wife, his three sons and their wives.
 sWhcn I see the nine, it reminds me of the nine lepers that were cleansed by our Savior. There were nine out of ten who never returnd thanks.
 "When see the ten it reminds me of the Ten Commandments which God handed down to Moses on the tables of stone.
 "When I see the king, it reminds me of the Great King of Heaven which is God Almighty.
 "When see the queen, it reminds me of the Queen of Sheba who visited Solomon, for she was as wise woman as he was a man. She brought with her fifty boys and fifty girls all dressed in boys apparel, for King Solomon to tell which were boys and which were girls. King Solomon sent for water for them to wash, the girls washed to the elbows and the boys to the wrists, so he told by that"
 'Well," said the Mayor, s.you have given description of all the cards in the pack except one"
 "What is that?'
 eThe Knave," said the Mayor.
 "I will glve your honor . descrip- tion of that, too, if you will not be angry
 Il will rot,' said the Mayor, eff you do not term me to be the knave."
 "Well," said the soldier, "the greatest knave know of is the con stable that brought me here."
 II don't know" said the Mayor, 'if he is the greatest knave, but l do know he is the greatest fool"
 "When I count how many spots in pack of cards, l find 365-as many as there are days in the year. 1 "When count the number of cards in pack l find tbere are fifty two the number of weeks ln a year; and find four sults-the number of weeks in month.
 Il find twelve picture cards in pack, representing the number of months in year; and on counting the number of tricks find thirteen, the number of weeks in quarter.
 "So you see, sir, pack of cards serve for bible. almanac and com mon prayer book"

Blipkihs says, "I ain't much on propositions in Euclid, and don't care about evolution, but when a man sits down on a humble bee at n pie nic, can tell him how long it will take him to get up just as well as any professor at Yale."
 One of our industrious friends went out the other morning before day to milk, but instead of going into old 'sbrindle's' stall, got into the stall of his off mule. He went out on the left side of the roof and his wife expects him down in a few days.
