improvement IN steamer paddle " heels.
which consists Of simple and appar-
emily effective method Of 'feathering
the bucket-a problem which has taxed
tho ingenuity Of nautical inventors for
years. The bucket is shaped much the
same as the fiat board in ordinary use.
except that it is somew hat wider, is
slightly wedge shaped above and he
low, and its upper half has a lonsi.udi-
nal groove in order to give it better
better hold upon the water. The low
er half Of the bucket is constructed OF
iron or other heavy metal. and the up
per hulf of wood. Instead of being
liked radially in this risu of the wheel
it is pivoted thereto. and this pivot is
the only bearing there is in The i'm
provement, thus avoiding ell annoy

principal difficulty encountered in the
complicated machinery hitherto invent.
cd to effect the feathering Of the pad

metal in the lower half keeps the buck.

rect nor the job does not smell sweet till yet-Morrillton State.
 To convince you tkat you ARE mistaken, Bro. Feltas, i. is only nee essarv for us to refer you to Sec. 41 of the common school law of the State, which reads as follows
 "All taxes voted for school purposes by any school dis. trict shall be levied by the county court at the same time county taxes are levied, and shall be collected in the same manner that county taxes are collected, at the same time and by the same person, and be paid into the county treasury, there to be kept subject to disbursement on the war rants of the school directors; Pro vided, that no tax for purposes aforesaid greater than ONE. HALF OF ONE PER CENT. tsmaIl caps. ours on the assessed value of the taxable property of the district shall be levied which shall be done by ballot"
 Give it up, Bro. Feltus?

most beneficial to the people in the history of the state of New York. All these facts are forgotten and ig- nored and because majority of his countrymen desire him for the high est station, to which he was elected and only prevented from holding of fee by conspiracy and fraud, he is made the target for vile partisans and tsaducers. There is something in the picture of this mature and H. lustrious statesman, at the summit of an honorable and useful career, per sistently assailed on all sides, made the victim of the greatest fraud in history and followed in his every movement by hooting mob of pet ty critics, always stern, resolute and unreplying undertaking from lis chosen path. thnt is at once inspir- ing and melancholy.-inspiring as an exhibition of strong manhood and heroic endurance and self restraint, and melancholy because 1t is impos- sible to seperate from the spectacle of his assailants a sad reflector on the tendencies of party spirit in our country. Harriet Martinean said she could not look hopefully on the future Of the American republic, be- cause the mass of the people were below thelr institutions, and if there is anything that could realize the gloomy criticism It is such wicked intensification of party spirit as is exhibited in the attacks on Mir. Til den. Separate political antagonisms from patriotism and they become simple agents of national debase ment. Their fruit is public passion violent, sinister, menacing, as reck- less of public interests as an angry man is of decorum. When 8 man runs for office he may expect to be abused, but in this case we have a systematic misrepresentation exten- ding over years and aimed to destroy possible candidate because of his availability. Such thing Is na- tioLal disgrace and illustrates the animus of 8 party whose only bond of cohesion is lust for office and which would willingly surrender the fame and honor or their country to secure a transient success.-StLouis Republican.

Silver in Scott County.

Mir. J. M. Williams, a farmer liv- ing nine miles south of Waldron, has discovered what good judges say to be silver ore. He is sangulne that it is the genuine article, and has backed his judgement by putting down three shafts. Two of the shafts are on his deeded land, while the third is on claim that he has entered. He has gone down over twenty feet in one of the shafts and now has over four tons of the ore up and boxed, and will shIp it to Silver City, there to test its merits with the machinery at that place. Mir. Williams says he has an old Califor- mia miner working for him who pro nounces the ore the richest in his experience. At the place where he is now working he has au old Mex ican employed who discovered that this place had been worked before, an old furnace and several cedar posts being found. Paying mineral is found at eight feet Mir. Vim. Mankins, silversmlth, took out of the ore by chemical process, 8 peice of metal the size of half q dollar. Six miles south of this is the mine of Nell. Hicks, and it is said to be the same lead, as they run in the same dIrection.-Fcrt Smith h. dependent

Interview With Dr. Wight.

NASHVILLE, Aug. 30.-In an inter. view with Dr. Wight, Inspector of the National Board of Health, he has inspected the quarantine sta. tions in Tennessee on all roads lead ing into Memphis. All travel out of Memphis Is by the Louisville Rail road and averages about twenty a week. Dr. Wight was told at Mem phis there were now in the city more than one hundred who desired to leave aside from those who had suf- fered from fever this or somepreyious year.
 Now, about 15,000 people in the city. estimated 6,0O0 white and 5000 colored. Altogether, about 4,000 families of these, not more than loo indigent families who are being sup ported by charitable associations. This did not, of course include the families in the camps. The number now in the camps is between 2,l00 and 2,200. The number of sick at present in Memphis is between l5O and 200, not including the eonval- escents. The surface appearance of Memphis was exceedingly cleanly, though surface indications cannot always be taken as an important feature in the sanitary condition of a town. The disposition of the Memphis refugees seemed to have been to go a greater distance from Memphis than heretofore, and to places where the fever was not like ly to spread. This had been one of the important sanitary effects os the present system of quarantine, and, together with the infection and dis infection of baggage trains, steam boats, etc, had tended to greatly lessen the number of cases from among those who had left the city. So far as heard. but twenty five cases have occurred among those who had left Memphis up to this date, and no spread of the disease occurred from any of those cases, ex- cept m tho Zcillcr case from which tie Boyd case was contracted.

You are mistaken, Bro. Feltus, about the limit. Five mills is not beyond the limit, and it would have been vastly to the credit of your town had the Democrats joined in with the Republicans and voted for a mills levy. If your town consti. tutes what is known under the school law as separate school district you are altogether of in electing di. rectors at this time. The law says directors for single school districts shall take place on the Sd Saturday in December.-Russellyille DEMO. GRAF.
 Excuse us, Bro. Battenfield, bu; we are not mistaken. A tax of two mills is already levied and an addi. tional levy of five mills would make seven which would throw It beyond the limit. AiorTilton deserves none of the odium attached to that cleo tion nor does anybody except the persons whose duty it was to give nouce of the election. One or two insignificant notices probably were put up and no one knew of the cleo. tion. This is nc separate school district" Lewisburg is the voting precinct of the township. We dc not think notice was posted in Morrillton as all.

Advantages Of Staying in Bed.

Taking an occasional day in bed, sim
ply on account Of indisposltion, is. how
ever, a very simple and rudimentary no.
ton of this glorious institution. Bed is
the natural domiclle of every man:
I'm bed we laugh in bed we cry
And born in bed, in bed we die''
Bayard, the French psychologist, main
tanned that man is an animal who exer-
cises the thinking faculty best in hori-
zontal position. Thus, there are high,
artistic, social, and Intellectual uses con-
nected with an occasional day in bed,
which imperitively claim discussion.
Brinley, the great engineer, when he was
bothered and puzzled by some tough
problem, always betook himself to bed
until he had solved it. Most people have
great kindness for Lord Melbourne,
who, under the afectation of frivolity,
used to get up Hebrew and the Fathers
and imperturable good humor to bear
with his wife, Lady Caroline, while the
pretty Byron-struck termagant used to
smash the drawing-room furniture, his
intimate friends would fnd the premier
calmly taking breakfast in bed, with let
tiers and dispatches strewcd all over the
counterpart. The poets have been terri
BILE fellows to get out Of bed. 1 suppose
it is because the visions Of the day and of
the night sweetiy intermingle. The poet
Thompson cultivated laziness as a fine
art, and thought out his poems in bed.
Pope was a still worse fellow When he
had fit of inspiration on him, he would
keep the servants running about for him
all through the night. He made amends
to them by the Righteousness of his
ttyails''
