From Des Arc.

DEs Arc, June 18th, ISL
Ed. Register-
You have such q variety of correapon-
dents from Des Arc that it leaves me
at q loss what to say. But I will make
a few remarks about t"Gulliver''-or, in
other words, tramp, an [ thought /
saw \ man very much like him chop
ping wood for his dinner the day he
passed through here and saw all those
pig-pens in the rear Of peoples houses.
Another thing, why he saw 90 many
chicken-coeps, &C., was because he
called on Jake Grandhomme and drank
too much of T. b. loves coffee, and
when he earrived at Des Arc everything
was turning around; and as the pig
pens would come around, he could not
could not help seeing them. Mr.. "Gul-
liver" the next time you start out,
keep sober, and look for churches in
stead Of saloons, and you could give
better description Of our town. And if
you are dry, come up and "Uncle
Isaac" will give you something good,
which will make you see something
else besides saloons and pig pens.
"Gulliver," if have been rough in my
report, excuse me; / will do better
next time.
Well, l ought to say something about
mike Dugxn;" bit he is SO busy pre-
pairing to go to the bench show next
fair time. He says he will occupy one
stall and his dog another. Be sure,
Mike" and keep the can tied to the
dogs tail, for if it gets off they might
tie it to you, as you both favor each
other SO much. I expect "Mike" will
get acquainted with lots of dogs at the
show.
Col. T. B. Lowe has left here, and as
he has not put in his appearances, will
have to write small epitaph on him.
If hit him too hard, hope his friends
will pardon me; for "a little fun now
and then is relished by the wisest
men, So here it is:
Well remember years ago
There lived . man named T. B. Lowe;
And be for many years did live
Among the coons on Big creek hills.
The Colonel was gentle. brave, and true,
And to knock him down no one would do;
Yet child or chick could go so near him
And have no cause to fear him.
The Colonel has chosen to leave the State,
And between two nights did emigrAte-
No mortal man Will e'er know
What has become of T. B. Lowe.
As "uncle Isaac'' il 50 much en-
gagged with business, will bid you q
good-by for some time; and if / have
hurt anyone's feelings in the past, i
apologize to all.
UNCLE ISAAC.
