GALA ROCK TOWNSHIP, April II.

Editor DEMOCRAT: Tam proud of our paper. 1 hardly see how we used to get along without paper; it is so convenient, especially in elec- tion times, through the columns of which it is so easy for us to propose or call out the men we want to fill the different offices. And now Mr. Editor, if you will allow me space, wish to propose man for County and Probate Judge, who is man you all know, has been a citizen of sur county for 35 years; acted as Justice of the Peace l4 years; serv- ed as assistant Judge of the County Court 6 years before the war; a man whose record cannot be excelled by any man in the county, so far as of. flee has been entrusted to him. He is the man that during the war en- dured the curses and abuse of thieves and robbers of all classes in order that our wives and children should not go barefooted; many a poor soldier and his wife can testify to the fact that had it not been for this man shoes could not have been had; this also is the man who at the close of the war, when we returned home and found not bushel of corn, a pound of meat, flour or groceries Tn our possession and not a dollar to buy with, came to our relief and not only shod our families during the war, but furnished us supplies and thereby enabled us to make a crop, without ever asking us which army we were in or what we had been do- ing during the war. And not only this, but if you will ask Col. Ben. T. Embry and R. A. Dowdle who it was that made so many trips to Little Rock during our militia troubles, stood up and faced Clayton, Upham and Mcclure in defense of our citi- zens and testified against theiyes and murderers and brought to bear an influence that at that time stop ped Upham from invading our coun- ty with that class of militia that al most devastated Woodruff and other counties.
 Now Mr. Editor, I do not claim that all these things qualities a man for office, but do claim that this man is well qualified, not only from his law knowledge and experience in county court matters, but is as well acquainted with the true condition of Pope County as any man in it, ex- cept our county clerk. Then this being the case, I do think that the people of Pope county should and would if they had a chance, re ward Esq. Reynolds, of Atkins, for the services he has rendered them by placing him in one of the most responsible offices in the County, which is that of County and Probate Judge. FARMER.

THE MAUMELLE EXCURSION

It was the happy privilege of ye editor to join in and accompany the excurslon the latter part of last week, on board the good steamer Maumelle, from Dardanelle to Fort Smith; and a more pleasant and en- joyable respite from the cares and petty annoyances of every day busi-
 ness we have seldom ever enjoyed. We shall not attempt any resume of the trip or it's incidents and pleas ures. We will leave that to the Ar kanslan and Immigrant, of Darda- danelle, each one of which had rep
 resentatives aboard; and their loca- tion at one of the terminal points on the river making it come more par ticularly under their jurisdiction. We could not, if we so desired, do the subject justice, or find language to describe the good time we had and when we say WE we mean every body, for everybody seemed to be delighted and altogether satisfied with the excursion. Mirth, music, fun, dancing and social games afford ed ample amusement for all, and good humor ruled the hour. The pleasure of the trip was rendered all the greater to ourself, personally, from the fact that we were in the hands of those two of our old time, warm hearted, congenial friends, Captain Jim Bowlin, than whom a better steamboatman never trod the hurricane deck, and Mir. Jef Bald win, one of the best Arkansas River pilots that ever turned wheel. May they both live long and prosper.
 The officers, the cabin and dining hall attachees done every thing in their power to make everybody feel at home, and the success which at tended their efforts proved them to be masters of the situation. The Dardanelle Comet Band was along and discoursed excellent music the whole trip through at frequent inter
