THERE has been the greatest difficulty
in inducing the Duchess Of Edlnburg to
go over and take up her abode in Eng

She idolizes her father, and does not
love the English court. The latter fully
reciprocates this sentiment. ' p

The --LATEST property in the market
aside from realty is stocks and bonds
of a local character. A number of
bank insurance and other shares are in
the market, but we hear of no sales.
Why this is thus, is past finding out,
unless it be that the speculative mania
has not yet reached us. Our stocks
are more solvent and pay better divi-
dends in the main than many in the
East that just now command high
figures. In. spite Of this, however,
money owners are tender footed when
it comes to talking to them of stock
trades. There is a considerable amount
ofidle capital at present, but anything
less secure than governments will not
draw it out. The banks discount
choice mercantile paper at 8 per cent.
Outside rates range all the.way from
6to 10 per cent. Shelby county war
rants are in demand at 50 to 95c.
Exchange is active, with free offerings
of cotton bills, especially on points
East. Rates are unchanged as follows.
Sight bills on New York and Phila-
delphia, and demand on Fall river,
Boston and Providence are taken at
&c discount, while sight on Fall River
lisa 4c discount. On New Orleans
sight bills are 1c discount. Checks
on all points are sold at par.

Grow Greek.
Forrest City Times

Forrest City Times
On last Monday, as the east bound
freight train was turning the curve in
the road this side of Crow Greek,
about three miles from Forrest City.
one of the trucks Of the car next to
the engine jumped the track, and ran
nearly three hundred yards on the
base of the bar, occasionally making a
slight indenture on the cross-ties. 1t
was not until the whole train struck
the bridge over Crow Creek that the
car left the track entirely and was
precipitated, together with the entire
train, thirteen cars, down the bridge ;
whereupon they became ignited from
the cab, in which was some coal oil
near the stove, and the entire train,
with the bridge, was burned. Que
brakeman, a Mr. Forsyth, of Lonoke,
was killed outright three negro pas
sengers, man. woman and child, were
burned up in the wreck, besides the
conductor badly burned, and uncle
Joe Hooker, from Blacklist, who has
since died from the burning and inter
nal injury sustained. There were
about 400 bales OF cotton, besides
other freight, and the cars and about
$50 feet of the bridge destroyed. The
total loss to the Memphis and Little
Rock railroad is estimated at about
$4,000, to say nothing of the loss Of
life and personal injury. We are glad
to announce that the road is open
again and trains running regularly.

The market here to-day opened
with an unsettled and to some extent
excited feeling, owing to an advance
of id on spots and 3-32d on futures
abroad, and also the rapid upward
movement in the East. Quotations
are difficult to give, but there was
an active inquiry in spite Of the heavy
rain fall. Sales yesterday were 1850
bales, divided 1,6OO to exporters, 2,40O
to spinners, and 50 to spectators, the
market held higher at lc advance on
quotations during the day.

The Aston Tragedy.

AS we were gcing to nress OH our
last issue the terrible news came Of
tie shooting and killing of Col.
Bob Aston at Atlanta Georgia by
Capt. E. S. Cox Of the same State.
The difficulty grew out Of Aston
refusing to cancel a certain bargain
as demanded by Cox. Cox became
enraged and actually hunted dow n
his opponent who tried in every
way to avoid blood-shed.
Finally he came into Col. Alston's
Office cl scd the door aud demanded Il
fight.
Col. Alstcn finding that persuasion
was at an end, stepped forward and
accepted the issue. The firing then
commenced rapidly, Cox dndging in
every direction, und Aston standing
erect like a man. Several shots
passed, Cox being shot in the mouth
and hand until at last the fatal sh OF
struck Aston in the temple, and
brought him to the floor MORALLY
wounded.
Col. Aston was n noble character,
generous, amiable, truthful and
brave, and in him Georgia loses a
noble son whose place cannot be
easily filed.
His most excellent wife has the
sympathies of al Georgia and South
Carolina, and, although her husband
vas too noble to nmass wealth, tn c
assurances come from every quarter
that she will never lack
