The following from the Reno Journal
explains why some of the excursionists
which passed through the other day
said ''injipe" and ''rud" when speaking
OF the engine and the road. Says the
Joarnal: 'The so-called Boston excur-
sionists are still here, and viii have to
remain until the road is open. A glance
over the list shows that only a slight
minority are from Boston. The majority
being from New Hampshire, Vermont,
Connecticut and the other New Eng
land States. The Boston men are
Washington street merchants, end car
ny tie indispensable umbrella; the
Beacon street ladies ell wear shoes re-
gardless Of length bat No. 4 in

James Richie, Of Little Humboldt,
was in town yesterday. He says tie
Little Humboldt was higher during the
few days Of warm weather, which we
experienced two weeks ago, than it bad
been before for five years. lie says
there is deep snow in all the mount
aims, and as soon as the weather gets
warm the streams viii be higher than
they have been for years. lie predicts
that there will be heavy grain and hay
crops this year, and times arc bound to
be lively next Fall if farmers eau find
a market for what they raise.

Laid at Resi-.

The Times Review says: The re-
mains of George ". Conner were con-
signed to their last resting place IN the
Masonic burial ground yesterday after
noon, the funeral being conducted un-
der the auspices of Tuscarora Lodge F.
and A. NJ. Of which deceased was a
member. He was also a Good Templar
and the members of that order attended
in body and assisted in the obseqaies.
Notwithstanding the rnpropitious state
Of the weather the procession to the
cemetary was one OF the largest that We
have ever seen in the town. The cir
cumstances of George Corners death
were peculiarly sad He was engaged
to be married to most estlmable
young lady here ard the wedding was
to have taken place ON the ed inst,
but death claimed his victim and the
bridal robes of the betrothed were laid
aside for the sable habiliments of woe.
During his short Illness his atfianced
was in constant attendance at his bed
side, ministering to his wants and doing
everything that love and devotion could
devise to alleviate his suffering and to
persuade his fleeing spirit 90 hnger for
awhile longer in its earthly tenement.
She kept up bravely during his illness
but is nearly overwhelmed with grief
at his death. Mrs. G.. G.. Berry of
Winnemucca, sister of deceased, when
she heard of his sickness FASTENED to
his bedside, but arrived too late to see
him alive. He died about an hour be-
fore the arrival of the stage which
brought his sister to the town."

ACCIDENT ON TIE v. q r. II. H.
Road Master George Y. Hayward
Killed and Five Persons Wounded.
tFrom the Reno Gazette.l


At l-3O P. NJ. yesterday, the down
freight train from Virginia, in rounding
curve near Merrimac, about 7 miles
beyond Carson, struck boulder which
had fallen upon the track. The train
was drawn by two engines. The after
engine jumped the track and rolled
down into the river, while the first
remained on the grade. George Hay
ward, roadmaster, sprang from the en-
CINE just before the collision. A num-
Der of dump cars were piled upon him.
When extricated he could not speak,
and died in few minutes. Robert
Dalton, engineer of the .Washoe, the
engine that relied into the river, re-
NAMED on his engine until it fell down
the bank. He was badly injured and
his recovery is uncertain. All the
train men were more or less injured.
Mr. Hayward leaves wife and three
childen. Mrs. Hayward is sister of
Mrs billiard Of Reno. Mr.. Hayward
was an estimable man, and his death is
deeply deplored in Carson where he
lived, and by many friends in Reno.
The "Washoe" is total wreck, ~
ing bottom up IN the Carson river.
Ten ore dumps and two fiat ears lie in
a heap beside it No trains came
through to Reno last night.

There is no through train from the
West yet. a heavy storm ragged in the
mountains yesterday and interrupted
those who are working with might and
main TO raise the blockade by getting
through the snow-slides. To-day is
clear and calm here, but it may be the
reverse in the mountains. The wires
were all blown down and hurried up
deep in the avslanches, and unless the
weather is more favorable for operations
than it has been since last Monday it
will be several days before the road is
clear. Hundreds Of men and dozen
or more locomotives are now battling
with the snow-drifts, and with fair
weather the road may be opened to-
night or tomorrow.

More shooting.

Another shooting ARRAY occurred here
last evening, but fortunately did not
result in anything more serious than
the arrest Of the person firing the shot.
The trouble is said to have grown out
of some uncomplimentary remarks
made about a woman, who resented the
insult by firing at the alleged insulter.

About the lst of the present month
the owners Of the Lucky Dog mine at
UEionyille commenced crushing ore at
the Eagle mill in Spring Valley. In
consequence Of the bad weather they
have experienced considerable trouble
in getting ore from the mine to the
mill. Up to the 18th instant they have
had $50 tons Of ore worked which pro-
tueed about SIS pounds of crude bull
lion, the value OF which had not at that
date been ascertained. 1t is believed,
however, that it viii pay handsomely,
and that the owners, notwithstanding
tie extra expense they have had to
incur in consequence of the severe
storms, will make sufficient to pay
item well. 1t is greatly to be hoped
that such via prove to he the fact as
they deserve success for the pluck
which they have displayed under adj
verse circumstances.

 W. Read and profit hereby. for I'll tell you no lie to-day just one year, was suffering most severe.
 'Twas when I knew no ease, for dis pepsia was the disease; it brought me dowu so low, that scarcely could go. I have oft heard it said, that l was as good as dead; skeleton walking too and fro, twas dispepsia caused 1t so. Then to the mountains fair, to try the pure fresh air, was induced to go and leave the valleys low.
 On the Boston's rugged top, at a spring l did stop; iron and salt both combined, in that water I did find.
 Now permit me here to say, and I can prove it any day, l am as hearty as buck, rejoicing in my good luck. Then to sufferers, one and all, now on you l do call, give this spring fair test, and yon are sure to be blest.
 l have never known it to fail on those whom dyspepsia assail only give it call, you will be cured of all.
 The Freeman Springs is the place, for those whose health has gone to waste; the water is pure and cold, and the spring itself is very bold.
 In Pope county, northwestern part, if daes mo pood tO my heart to Doint you to the place that will take the wrinkles from your face.
 The scenery ilself is most sublime, for it is the widest of wild kind; deep gorges you may find, where the sun doth never shine.

RUssELLyuLE, ANz.,
 Jan. 22d, lS80|
 ED. DEMOCRAT: Facts, rather than fancy, are what is necessary to be had in naugurating an enterprise, and especially an important one as this new road from Russellvllle to Harrison iu Boone County. To show then the great benefits of the road to us and the people of Arkan- sas, lylng north oi the Boston Noun tains, we give some statistics from the U. S. Census showing the pro ducts of Boone, Carroll and Marion counties in 1870. Boone county produced in wheat, fl ,645 bus; corn, 34l, ,O42; Oats, 22,000; tobacco, 56, 600 lbs; butter, 92,000; cotton, 600 bales; hogs, 22,S37; sheep, T. 9SS. The census shows Carroll and Marion counties not quite equal to Boone in any item of wealth, but putting them at 25 per cent. less, and we have basis upon which to make a calculation. Boone is one ot the four counties in Arkansas that made the greatest increase in wealth and population between 1860 and 1870, and the inference is reasonable that the census of 1880 will show that it, as well as all the counties adjacent to it, have increased in wealth and population in a still greater ratio. Upon this it is fair to suppose that Boone county produces now for sale :: cotton, 5000 bales, at $10 per bale $120,000; wheat, 200,000 bus. at 75c ger bus.-$75,000; Swine, 5000 at $6 each--$lS,000; cattle, 1000 at SEQ cach-$40, ,0o0; butter, 50,000 lbs, at 15c,-$7, 500; apples 5000 bus. at Toe per bus,-$3, TOO: Total. $260, 900. Add to this surplus products of farm productions and live stock from Boone county, two thirds of that amount from Marion and Carroll combined making l53,000, shows an aggregate of $470,200 from these three counties.
 The additional amount which this turnpike road will bring us from Newton and Searcy, which will of course amount to many thousands, we have left out of the aoove esti- mate.
 It will be seen then, that upon a most reasonable calculation, a half million dollars worth of trade and commerce will be to certainty brought to Russellville and Little Rock by this road, and at the same time the people bringing it will be accommodated with a better road than they now travel to Springfield, and at the same time come where they wish to come, within their own State. w.

Obituary.

LATTA.-At the residence of Rev. E. c. Latta, at Salida, Cal. on the 10th inst. MRS. BETTE LATTA, relict of th e late Rev. F. NJ. Latta of Russellville, Ark.
 Mrs. Latta was born and reared in Johnson County, this State. Her de- voted husband, the Rev. F. NJ. Latta, for several years the beloved pastor of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church at Clarksville and afterwards at Rus sellyille, preceded her to the grave by nearly three years. After the death of her husband she remained at Russell vile till last June, when she went to California, in the hope that a change of climate would bring relief to her last failing-health But the insidious des- troyer consumption pursued her with unrelenting purpose and unsparing hand, and on the morning of the 10th she laid down the burden of life. A great sufferer for years-death to her was indeed great gain, leaving out of view the hopes and cancellations of the religion which she was devout, faithful and consistent professor. She leaves q little boy, now an orphan, a brother and two sisters, and many warm friends to mourn her loss.-L, K. Democrat.
 Died January 18th, 1880, at the resi- dence of his parents, two miles from RusselIville, of cerebro spinal menin- gitis, John NJ. Yancy, son of Dr. J. NJ. and A. NJ. Yancy, aged years and eleven days, alter an lilnesss or three days.
 Johnnie was delicate boy physical ly; mentally he was unusually bright. The whole of his short life was spent among us, and we miss him sadly. But when we know how the hearts Of his parents chung to him as their baby boy and the last to be taken of three sons, and heard the groan of anguish "thaJ would not be repressed" as they gave back their boy to God, we could only pray, chat He who took Johnny to Himself and pities "Like as father pitieth his children" heal their wound ed hearts and teach them to look with in the "Beautiiul Gate" where their lost ones arc waiting for the coming Of both parents and sisters.

The Harrison, Russeilyilie aud Little Rock people have joined hands in this enterprse and started out on q line of policy which inspires us with the most sanguine belief in the complete success of the movement. There has been q Board of Directors chosen and an engineer will at once proceed to determine upon the shortest, best and most advantageous route. The Board of Directors IS composed Of the following gentlemen, the high-ssauding of whom, is cer- tain guarantee that they will leave nothing undonc to push the enter prise through.
 From Little Rock S. L. Griffith, D. E. Jones, ". D. Slack.
 Prom Russellville; J. l.. Shinn, G. E. Howell, II. c. Howell.
 From Harrison: II. Glitseh, H. A. Crandall, II. W. Flick.
 H. H. Bein, of Little Rock, is Secretary oi the Board and J. L. Shnn, of Russellyile. President.
 The three members of the Board from Russellyille constitute an ex ecutive committee.
 The business men of the capital are going to do their part. They will do it cheertully and handsomely. To Col. Feb Ward the friends and movers in the enterprise are indebt- cd for the most generous and public spirited proffers of assistance. When such men him take hold ofa mat ter it is bound to succeed.
 It is movement the importance of which cannot be over estimated.
