THE sCoURGE..

There is still no relief for poor Mem phis from the distress and damage en- tailed upon her by the fever--no let-up in the rayages of the terrible plague.
 Every day adds to the victims of the scourge. Every day new cases are re- ported and new graves filled with vic tins. The summary of last week showed 132 new cases and 43 deaths altogether thus far there have been l. 136 cases in the city and 320 deaths.
 The near approach of the season at which frostmay be expected, affords a ray of hope that the dreadful destroyer will soon disappear. G

FROM HOLLY BEND.

ED. DEMOCRAT: Being requested by the business manager of your valuable paper to give items of Interest that might come to my knowledge of our township, replied that was q farmer and confined at home too much to at tempt such thing, and suggested probably he had better inake the re- quest of some young man who had nothing to do but to Tide around among the neighbors. utgreatly to the cred- it of our township we keep no dead heads--all have something to do.
 Holly Bend township is an entire stranger to the columns of this paper, but the blame is with us, It is about six miles square, about one-third is ly- ing on the Arks. river; the finest lands ,in the county the most of which is in good state of cultivation. Should any one by chance sean this who is in search of home would advise him to come and see this part of Pope county. Land plenty, for rent or sale. Land Is rent ing readily at from five to seven dollafs. Selling from twenty to thirty. Crops are as good as could be expected, con- sidering the unusual dry spring; we will make corn and wheat plenty, and some to sell. The people arc vide awake gathering cotton. We have five steam gins, and one of the finest mills in the county. Church and school houses suitable and convenient to every neighborhood. Have had this year two schools of six niortlis each, and made preparation for the same next year; the people are in favor of the whole hog or none in the free school line. Health ia as good as the county can afford. People quie6 and peacea- ble. One of our justices who is a school boy, and the other | teacher, said by their action, do this or starYe; the peo- pie are too law-abiding for tls.

 Blobbs was good fellow, but on Gc- count of some-derangement of his sys- tem, his head WAS frequently "olf q leetle.n He was . shoemaker, hence was closely confined all day, anu very often late at night. He had constant headache, with pain in the back, loss of appetite, sour stomach and coustipa- ton of the bowels. He frequently arose in morning with fever and dull headache. He became morose, uiisocial and indifferent.
 Blobbs sent half dollar to the Drug Store for a bottle of Bailey's Saline Aperient and few doses cooled his stomach, opened his bowels, unlocked his liver and he at once became a heal- thy and happy man.

 According to evidence gleaned from a certain elderly Doctor who is estonsed anild the attractions of some of the ru- ral districts of Kentucky. the climax of the Millennium will be about Che year 1896, and that during that year of ,'peace and good will to all men," a president will be escorted to the Capi- tai by regifueut of reautifut women.
 He thinks whisley a great obstruc- iion to the Millennium, but uses a wee drop'' himself at times.

A BEAUTIFUL TESTIMONIAL.

The following very appropriate and well written lines addressed to the be- reaved wife of the late Dr. F. B. Har- rell, we take pleasure in publishing, though they were not intended for pub lieation by the author-who is entirely unaccustomed to expressing his thoughts in poetical form-but wrote them as q testimonial of intimate friend ship reaching back into the long ago; and as an expression of sympathy for a most worthy, amiable and universally esteemed lady. Dr. Harren was exten- sively known in Northwest Arkansas, and his strong mind,. clear judgment and generous traits of character made him great many friends. How much he is missed in the daily walks of life, by those in town and from the country. The humorous, friendly greetings, the native wit and anecdote, with which he seasoned and gave life and relish to his social intercourse and conversation, we will hear and enjoy no more. He has gone to meet the realities of anoth- CT world, and to be judged, not by the rigid dogmas and austere tenets--hard as iron and cold as written and promulgated by men; but by the doe trines and teachings of Jesus Christ, not only full, but utoverflowing and lrip- ping with boundless love and4fnfnite mercy. #89f TO MRS.

The supreme folly of the republicans in
fllibustering to prevent the introduction
of new bills last Monday will not again be
repeated They have heard from home
and will not repeat their mistake Here
tofore all the republicans had to do was to
give the democrats rope and they were
sure to hang themselves. The scene has
changed, the republicans now have the
hanging end Of the rope, and they are using
it with more folly than democrats were
ever able to do. Unused to being IN the
minority, maddened at being unable to
force their high-handed measures and par
TITAN rule, unable to fire the northern
heart with their old and worn out campaign
talk, they have made fools of themselves
by opposing new legislation. when there
is not the least harm 10 letting every mem
Der trot out his hobby, when even speech
on it from the mover would expose its
absurdity to the whole country.
