A KISSING SPRING.
A REMARKABLE STREAM OF WATER DIS
COVERED IN ARKANSAS.

A REMARKABLE STREAM OF WATER DIS
COVERED IN ARKANSAS.
TIE Little Rock Gazette says that ff-
teen miles northeast OF Witherspoon,
Ark, on Greasy creek, one of the
greatest and most miraculous springs
has recently been discovered, on record.
We have not been to see them, but our
informant, a good citizen and a Baptist
preacher of celebrity, tells us what he
saw Parson John r. Yeats was at
the spring last week, and he says the
spring flows from mountain about 400
feet high, comes out of the ground leo
feet from the top of the mountain on
the north side, and flows at the rate of
about 40 gallons per minute, and it is
the color of apple cider aud tastes just
like apple brandy, and has the same eff
feet. Those under the influence of the
water are perfectly ecstatic, and hug
ging and loving everything they meet.
He says: 81 never saw the like, chill
dreE and boys and girls hugging and
kissing every one they meet. Old men
aud old women, young men and young
ladies, embracing each other by hug
ging and kissing. | met an old white
haired man and woman Il suppose
about 80 years old-and they were hop
ping and skipping like lambs. l saw
hundreds lying around the spring so
drunk that they could not stand up, and
they were lying and laughing and try
ing to clap their hands. The people
call them the Millennium Springs.

Knocking down a man who said
he hoped President Garfield would
die and getting fined for it has prov
ed very profitable investment for
Capt. Charles A. Cook, of Browns
vile, Ohio. Over $500 has been
collected by penny subscriptions for
him. He has been proposed for sew
eral offices, but declines to run. The
Captains good luck has had its nat
ural effect, for the news now comes
that the Rev. Moses J. Kelly, Bap-
fist minister of Maine, has been fin
ed S. and costs for assaulting a man
who expressed qualification at the

that Garfield would die.

umn and a half space we give to
Major w. J. Sykes's letter to the ed
itor of the McMinn1ille Ne,C Era,
in defense of himself from the per-
sonal assaults of that press and the
indignators generally. 1t contains
important facts, of interest to the
people, which the repudiators can
not successfully deny. 1t has been
too much the habit in this State with
certain men to make grave charges
against those who differ from them
when they have no proof Especl-

The New York Times, of the 22d,
contains a long and interesting ac-
count of what may prove a success
full attempt to recover the remains
of the late A. Z. Stewart. The sub
stance of the story is that detectives
from New York, during the past
week, had been slowly and patient
ly working at a clue which they
believe may lead to the recovery
Of thefgemains of the late A. I.
Stewart, the stealing of which from
st. Marks churchyard excited such
intense public interest and horror
nearly three years ago. Under the
direction Of these detectives work
men have begun to dig up a
part of the groand in Cyprus hill
cemetery, in the plot belonging to
John I. Runcie, and work will be
until the success or fail
ure of the effort is made apparent.
The spot where the excavation is
in progress was located by means
of picture which came in a sin
gular manner into the detective
bureau, the head of which, with
competent aids, has been untiringly
at work in the matter.

vile, last Thursday, drew a very
large crowd of people to that place,
and everything passed off pleasant

exercises began at 10 o'clock, the
most interesting features of which
were the roll call, firing the salute
the speaking and the barbecue. The
orator of the occasion was Judge j
W. Robertson, of Austin, Texas, AZ

THE SPECULATION IN WHEA 7
AND CORN.
From the Baltimore Sun

the Baltimore Sun.
There has been partial subsistence in
the excitement in the grain market that
manifested itself in the rapid fuctua-
lions and heavy transactions at the Pro-
duce Exchange in New York last week.
But the speculative spirit in breadstuffs
and provisions once reused, it is diff
cult to say when aud how it will end.
The @bull@ spectators, who have been
rampant in forcing up the prices of
grain, give plausible reasons for their
action in the shortage of the wheat crop
to the alleged extent of one hundred and
twenty five millions of bushels as COM
pared with the crop of last year, a de-
icicncy which, if il should prove to be
an established fact, would be nearly
equal to the entire exports of 1881. The
corn crop also at the West has undoubt-
eddy suffered heavily from the protract-
ed drought, and as the drought contin-
ues the market price of old corn is cor
respondingly enhanced. The auctua-
tions in the Baltimore market have been
quite as great as in New York, though
upon smaller transactions, but the pri-
ces for future delivery continue to rule
firm both for wheat and corn, and on an
ascending scale, The deficiency in the
corn crop this year being estimated at
- from three to four hundred millions of
- sbnshels. Such statements as these, at
this time, aud by spectators interested
in bulling prices, must be taken with
Pr. a due allowance for exaggeration, That
our surplus of cereals for exports will
be considerably less than last year APP
- pears to begenerally conceded, but what
the demand for foreign consumption
will be cannot be determined until the
crops abroad are harvested and thrash
= ed. The earlier accounts indicated, af-
ter four years of failure, fair average
for France and England, our principal
customers. Later reports are not so sat
lv, isfaetory. The yield in France under |
the thrashiug machine is said to be dis
appointing In England the harvesting
- is pretty much over, but much of the
wheat remains in shock, and rains are
reported that may do it considerable III
jury. In Germany, the yield of wheat,
rye and oats is aid to be one-fourth
under the average In Austria, also,
there are reports of injury TO the crops.
In Russia, in spite Of all the depressing
accounts that were received some time
ago from that empire, the crops of ce-
reals are now admitted to be so abund-
ant as to leav large surplus for ex-
port, and Russia being our great com
petitor- the Eur ,fean grain market,

exportable surplus and the better crops
