The old camp ground has changed since we used to visit it in our child hood. The church building still oc- cupiss the same site it did in other years, but it has been enlarged hay ing had added to it an upper story. A new shed and several small frame buildings have been erected, and two wells have been dug for camp-meet
 ing purposes. Not only have the grounds changed, but many young people and many strangers to us fill the places of the old citizens who have long since been gathered to their fathers, and just across the road is neatly inciosed cemetery where calmly repose those faithful heroes of other days. Their souls are gone and their voices hush ed; but above their lone graves wave hasE.;ful evergrsens which, while they point heavenward, speak silent iy, yet forcibly, of that life which is to be more durable than the never changing hue of their green branch co. How beautifully they shade the forms of the dead which wait in si- lence 'the trump of the archangel and the voice of God"
 At about two o'clock in the after noon the crowd began to disperse, and your reporter and family started for the city, but were stopped in our mad career" by the cool and pene- trating drops of refreshing shower. When the celestial tears had ceased to flow we went on our way rejoicing, for the dust did not new cloud our vision as we dashed hy pretty white cottages, passed bolntifr: fields of cotton and corn, orchards whose trees were breaking down with fruits, groves, valleys and mountains that fell upon our enchanted vision; while vapors breathed along the mead, and cooling breezcs drove away the sum- mer's heat. After . pleasant drive we arrived at town, feeling that we had scaled those heights of pleasure without coming in contact with one crag of disappointment. X.

THE TRUTH WE'LL TOLD.

The New York Herald thus se- versly comments upon the practice of the northern republicans abusing ssuthsrn dsmocrats at long range, and refusing to send men and money into the south to organize the vast army of republicans they claim to exist here. The Herald fairly and truthfully presents the case:
 "Why does the brave republican party north hold of from inspiring it's southern brethren with courage by sending missionaries down to help them? Why does it abandon them naked to their enemies? Have any of the great northern republican Boansrges who roa. through prssi- dential canvasses from Portland to Omaha ever gone down south to do any roaring there on republican be- halff Have any moro than driblets of the great sums of money which are levied into the treasury of the republican national committee ever been spent south of late years in circulating documents. holding meet ings, providing effective speakers, getting up barbecuss and proces- sions, or Tn any of the other fair and ordinary agencies of political activi- ty? Has not tho central republi- can management been culpably de- voted to keeping the southern out rage business lively, and not 70 supp pressing it and to maintaining the rights of southern republican voters against it on the spot? Certainly it looks so. Spectators are entitled to believe it is so.

COL. DOMAINS OPINION.

Col. Pat Donan, whose oration delivered before tue Arksnsas press association at Batssvills last June. interssted and amused so many Of our readers, has returned to his home in the far west, and has been made the special object of . newspaper reporter. In the account Of tho interview We find the follow ing. in Donan's unapproachable style. in reference to the south, and mora especially our own State:
 The south is damned with too many politics and too little common sense. Arkansas is tho one excep. tional State. With about ono hun d-ed highly respectable funerals, she would soon be keeping peace :. .= .:s -.s grand march of inn.s1smsnt with her north western sisters.
 ''How do you account for. this diff ference between Arkansas and the other southern statss?"
 ..it is owing. to great msasnrs, to the intelligence and independence of her press, and to the fact that largo number of snterprising north srn men who have located in the State. The trip l gave some two hundred of the leading citizens of the State through this great and growing and prosperous northwest ern region last year was . mighty educational measure. It showed them how far behind the age they were and seat them back home with infinitely broadened and liberalized ideas. The eastern land and immi- grafton agent of the Little Rock < Ft. Smith railway told me the other day that, since that excursion the letters of inquiry in regard to Ark ansas has increaseda hundred fold"
 ''How are they down there polite allv2"
 "Oh, they are for Hancock, of course, though there is little bowling, hurranlng enthusiasm anywhere for either ticket. I believe Grant would have swept the country like whirl- wind; but a it is, l think the race is going to be close. would not like to bet more than fifteen cents either way. Garfield and Hancock are both ordinary men. Either will make very passible common sort of president; and, no matter which is elected it will be useless for the aver ago partisan jackass to rear and snort and bray about the republic belng ovsrthrown. liberty stabbed to the heart, the constitution tramplcd under foot, and the devil to pay gen erally. The country will doubtless last four years under either or neith- er."
