ELIZABETH, Ark, Aug. 10, 1881.

EDITOR RECORD: have just closed a
protracted meeting at Mt. Calm. Coed
revival; four conversions. Went to pray
er. meeting last night, at Elizabeth and
heard of terrible accident. Yesterday
afternoon Sandy Uucheson and Henry
Doey were working in well for luche-
son. The last named was in the well, and
was struck by the damp. lie called for
the box to be let down to him, but when
it was done he was too far gone to help
himself. AT this Henry Doey became
excited and started down the rope and by
some means fell and broke his neck, and
at this Mrs. IluchesOn raised terrible
screaming. James Beavers was first to
arrive at the scene and went down into
the we'll to aid the others and the damp
seized him, and the three helpless mortals
lay at the bottom of the well-one dead,
the other two not able to stand. At this
exciting moment others arrived, and their
plans being more deliberate, succeeded
in removing the unfortunate three from
the WELL Doey was dead, and the other
two could not speak, and were vomiting
blood. Their recovery is doubtful.
The general health of the country is
good. Drouth is very bad, but think
that Fulton county will be selfSupport-
ing, by getting rid of all the surplus
stock. LEWIS KELLEY.

CRYSTAL SPRING CAVE,

This cave is situated on II. S. Horns
land, in Cave township, Sharp county,
Arkansas, on the south side, near the
Evening Shade and Batesville road and
near Flat Rock church. The mouth of
the cave is found in sink, on the north
side of bluff, runs little west of south,
and has four rooms. The crystal water
is found in the fourth room, about one
hundred yards from the entrance, and the
general opinion Of the people is that the
water is about one hundred feet below
the top of the ground.
Mr.. G. W. Brewer, of Cave township,
was in a weak and feeble condition, last
spring, and was not able to work and
cultivate his crop. His appetite was bad,
and he was in debilitated condition.
de could not take a reasonable amount of
exercise without great fatigue. About the
first of July he started to Ravenden
Springs, for his health, and being SO weak
and the weather so hot, he returned home.
Having some knowledge of this cave wa
ter, he concluded to use it, by going twice
a day to the cave and drinking and carry
ing the water home with him, and by
using it one week he found that his health
was improving, and after continuing its
use about three weeks, he was able to 90
about and see after his business affairs
without any trouble. He is now able to
labor regularly. Several other persons
have since used the water of this cave
spring, for the cure of chronic sore eyes,
diseases of the skin, scrofulous sores, &c,
and almost all have been cured or benefit
ted by it. W. IL. STEWART.

EDITOR RECORD: As you have invited
correspondence, and l have not secq any
answer to your call, l hope you will not
be offended at ne fer stepping iCrward
with few items from this part 7 the
county.
Crops are badly damaged by the lrouth;
so much so that there will not be - hall
crop of either corn Or cotton made.
Health is better than was expected
Last Thursday, Aug. llth, the pee lie in
the vicinity assembled at Shiloah Surch
for the purpose of listening TO a l2ture,
to be delivered by Col. II. Eshb2ugh,
master of the Missouri State Grang9 and
to partake Of the "good things" pr. pared
for the occasion. After a few hOegs of
social conversation, which all seemed to
enjoy, dinner was announced. The table
was laden with the best the countrI af-
fords, and all were filed and well salts
!
fed with the manner in which every, bing
was conducted. After the exercises at
the table the crowd was called together at
a suitable place and the audience cgree
ably entertained for more than an hour
by Col. Eshbaugh, who held his hearers
spell bound with his sound reasoning and
wonderful oratorioal powers, His talk
was instructive as we'll as entertaining to
all present.
Now, Mr.. Editor, you will allow re to
ask your readers one or two questions and
will also answer them. What IS a
county paper, of what should it be com
posed, and who are the proper persons to
furnish the editor with the substance af its
composition? A county paper is one that
gives items of interest from all part Of
the county. It's principal substance is the
local news, and | believe the citizers of
the different portions Of the county should
furnish the editor g report Of everything
of interest that tSanspires in their m 4st.
The editor of our county rarer seq Gd ses1.
correspondence, and but few have an
swered his invitation. Some offer the
excuse that they have not enough educa-
tion to write for the paper. The writer of
this has but little education, and has not
attended school since he was nine years
old, yet he thinks it his duty to try to
write, and will DO so when he has an op.
portunity to furnish any news that the
editor would not otherwise get.
In conclusion, Mr.. Editor, would say
that if in the waste basket is the proper
place for this communication, you should
put it in il, place. 7. J. Turner.

G. J. WILSON, Esq, Co. Examiner.
DEAR SIR: Your letters of Aug. 18th
and 10th to hand. In reply l have to say
that since bv the provisions of the ID sec.
ton of the Act of March II, 1881. only
one director was to be elected at the an.
nual school election in May, 1881. When,
by mistake of the requirements of the
Act, three were voted for, on the same
ballot, the election in such cases is a nul-
lity. and none of the three can be consid-
cred legally chosen. In such cases all
ballots Containing more than one name
are void. Under this view of the case, the
board of directors in Office in May last
will remain unchanged until another
election is held. since all officers continue
in Office until their successors are elected
and qualified.
In answer to your kind invitation to be
present and participate in the exercises of
your teachers institute, have to say
that it will be impossible for me to be
present at that time, as | have already
made an appointment to hold a district
normal institute at Corning Sept. lst, ID
and 3D.
Wishing you much success in your
work,
am very truly,

Instruction, Little Rock, Ark.
DEAR SIR: In accordance with your re.
quest that | should give my opinion as to
the proper construction to be placed on the
second section of the Act of March II,
1881, in reference to the number of school
directors to be elected at the annual meet,
ing, on the third Saturday in May of this
year, | have to say, have carefully ex-
amined the Act in question, as well as the
Act of Dec, II, 1878, of which it is amen
datory, and am thoroughly satisfied, and
give it as my opinion, that the provis0 for
electing three directors "at the first an,
nual school meeting after the passage of
this Act" being simply copy Of the
amended Act, refers to the annual meet
ing after the passage of the first Act and
that only one director is required to be
elected this year. am frank to say that
from casual examination of the Act, l
at one time thought differently.
The intention of the amendment was
simply to change the election from Au-
gust to May, and this, in fact, is the only
change made in the section amended.
Your reasoning in your circular of the
10th instant, on the subject, is sound and
legal and in accordance with the doctrine
and ruling in Ely VS.. Holton, fifteen n.
Y, j95, and other leading cases on the
construction of this class of amendatory
laws, that might be cited.

result was that in attempting an unusu-

THE TARIFF AGITATION.

Two tariff conventions will be held this
month, one at New York, and the other at
Chicago. The former has for its object,
''the consideration and recommendation of
such congressional action as will best pro-
mote domestic and foreign commerce and
afford adequate protection to American IN
dustry.' The constitutionality of tariff
for protection has always beenan open ques-
ton, and, the most that can
be said if protection per Sc is
warranted, it is only permitted
and not commanded The average tax.
payer is beginning to think the time has
about come for him to insist upon his rights
which antedate the Constitution and which
that instrument no where permits to be
transgressed Perhaps the ProtectionistS
will be shrewd enough to read the signs
of the times and consent to lose
some of their vast privileges, To
retain the rest and agree to the revision OF
the present tariff rather than take the
chances on a new one. Whatever merit
lies in the tariff laws as presently revised
belongs of right to the Democratic party,
which has forced it by its persistent advo-
cacy of the rights Of the people. The
question of tariff is one of the few live
issues upon which political parties are
divided, and the friends of revenue reform
should he on the alert and ready to make
bold moves whenever and wherever the OPP
portunity is presented.-[ Alyarado Bull
