Paper Notes.

The Hamburg (Ark.) Mentor has
changed hands, and its name has been
changed to the Ashley County Times.
Our old friend w. A. Prather is now
in sole charge of the paper, and is
doing yeoman service for the people Of
his section. We wish him we'll.
Mr.. a. d. Battle, who for some time
was editor of the Shreveport Times,
withdrew from the paper not long ago,
and was succeeded by Judge Seay who
has ably filled the editorial chair mean
while. Mr.. Battle now resumes edito-
rial control of the Times, and our es-
teomed friend Judge Seay,we presume,
will devote his entire attention to the
law. Both OF these gentlemen have
our best wishes, but we should be bet
ter pleased to see them both editors OF
the Times.
We have received a copy of the Mar
shall Herald, edited by Colonel II. w.
! Loughery who published Il paper in
this place more than quarter of a cen
tury ago. We exchange with pleasure.

Ed. Hathaway was tried at the re-
cent term of the District Court in Bos-
sier for murder, and was acquitted by
the jury. He was charged with killing
his brother-in-law. Hathaway is the
man who, just before the election, shot
and wounded two freedmen near this
city, was arrested by the citizen SOL
<iiery and brought to Jail charged with
an attempt to murder. He was ironed
in Jail, but managed to get out in a
general Jail delivery. The chain around
his leg, however, retarded his flight,
and he was recaptured and put back in
prison. He was then taken to Bossier
on the charge of which he has been
acquitted. He is a very cool, daring
fellow. What the authorities OF Qua
chita will do in his case, or have done,
we are not informed.

Housekeepers about Monroe have
had toll and trouble since the cotton
picking season began. Cooks, washer
women, nurses and wood-choppers took
a sudden liking to the cotton-patch in
the concrete, but to gin in the abstract,
and they left town like school-children

Something New About Wells.

Mr.. Tull, master machinist at the
depot and general manager of the
shops, &c., found himself hard-put for
water few weeks ago to supply the
locomotives, boiler and other appliances
in use about the shop. The cisterns
had given out, and the drove well had
proven a failure. Mr.. Tull thought he
could dig well that would supply all
the water required, although he was
told that such a thing was impossible
in our alluvial soil. He set to work,
however, and began digging we'll
some eight feet in diameter. He built
wooden cylinder, or curbing, to follow
the digging, and inside this curbing he
laid another curbing of bricks. Be-
tween the wood and bricks he poured
cement. The dirt was hauled up, a
barrel-full at time, by means Of a
derrick. AS the digging proceeded,
the bricks were laid, and the cylinder
and bricks went down together. The
bricks were laid at the surface. At one
time the weight of the curbing was in
sufficient to carry it down, and several
ton pressure had to- be employed, (which
was done by the use Of old iron, car
wheels, &C., imposed on the curbins.
The work proceeded, until a depth Of
4G feet was reached, " hen vein OF
water three inches in diameter was
struck, and then the curbing was firmly
settled. The we'll soon filled with over
twenty feet of clear but slightly brack-
ish water. A steam pump has been
placed about eighteen feet below the
surface, and there is no longer any
scarcity Of water about the railroad
shops.
In digging the we'll small shells were
found at depth Of 36 feet. Some OF
the specimens we secured, to go with
acorn shells found over 60 feet below
the surface of the ground, some years
ago, in the Courthouse square. AT the
bottom of the we'll Mr.. Tull says he
struck clay so compact he could dig IL
up only with the greatest difficulty.

Since our last issue the sales of cotton
have exceeded 400 bales. The sales
Wednesday amounted to some 100
bales, over 20 of which came from the
west side of the river. Prices have
ruled high-but little short of New
Orleans quotations-and the demand
has been active. There was decline
Of 4c yesterday. Best cotton offered
sold for 1O4c., yesterday.
