Our energetic young friend, Mr.

Our energetic young friend, Mr.
Thomas j. Doss, was in town Tues
day and gave us some unfavorable
reports from his portion of Gum
Swamp. He says the cut-worms
have ruined the cotton and corn in
his section, having cut the little
plants off as soon as they come
through the ground, and that two
thirds of the crops must be re-
planted. Mr.. Doss is a successful
planter, but he chad the blues
most Indignantly last Tuesday. 1t
is to be hoped that the old adage,
''a bad start makes good end
ing may be fully verified in the
harvest time of the present year.

The Bastrop Literary Society

The Bastrop Literary Society
very ably debated 1--WE took part)
this question last Tuesday evening:
''W hich affords the greater field for
oratory,l the pulpit or the bar?'
We have heard our Society handle
a great many deep and intricate
questions with great force and elo-
quence, but all hands were in the
most perfect trim Tuesday night,
(every speaker preluded his remarks
with the stereotyped assertion
that he had not studied the subject
a moment, } and such speeches we
never heard before. Great streams
Of burning eloquence flew from the
mouths of the debaters; magnif-
cent figures of rhetoric bounded
from their fertile brains overpow-
ering cadences Of the most raptur-
GUS oratory appealed to the acute
ear of the enchanted President,
who was captivated-completely
spell-bound-and broad strokes of
4he profoundest logic drew out
from him a decision in favor of the
affirmative-our side.
The Bastrop Literary Society is
composed of men Of very large
heads, some of which are also very
bald.

Serious fears Of an overflow are
entertained by the people of the 9Th
Ward. The water is rising daily
and many planters are greatly
alarmed at the impending danger.
Untold destruction and disaster
would be the result of an inunda-
ton now, and We do hope it may
be averted. Nhe Mississippi, how
ever, is rising slowly but surely
every day, and it might be the part
of true wisdom for our Fifth Ward
friends to hold themselves in con-
slant readiness to make the best
they can of a sea of 1ntruding wa
ters.

Cattle Stealing.

A little over week ago an Indi
ap saw three men rounding up the
cattle at the lower sink, aud observ.
ing that they started off without
parting any out, rode to ranch and
informed the people there of what
had been done. Some vaqueros
started in pursuit and recovered the
cattle, but did not find the thieves.
In the mean time the Sheriff of
Churchill county had been sent for,
and he and deputy came out after
the men. They followed east until
they came to the mountains, where
tn y separated. The next day the
sheriff returned without having
found any trace of the tugi'ives, aud
that night the deputy came back
showing gns of rough treatment,
but enable to account for it. 1t wac
supposed that he had overtsken his
men and got the worst of the strug.
gle. I; is probable that when he got
better he was able to give an expla-
nation, but no news has been receiv-
ed since.

Competition.

The Bodie fast freight competition
with the c. 6 c. r. r. gives US a
chance to experience the peculiari-

of many places in the Eastern States.
A first class ticket from Dayton to
Bodie costs fifteen dollars, and no
second class tickets are sold here or
at any station on the G. & G. south
of the Mound House. A ticket sec
ond- class from the Mound House OF
Carson costs six dollars; therefore a
resident Of Dayton whining to go to
Bodie as cheaply as possible can af-
ford to take a first.c class ticket to
Carson, pay for his lodging and
breakfast there, smoke as good a CT
gar as is sold in the town; buy a
ticket for Bodie; ride back through
Dayton, and still save 1886, pro-

are now among the handsomest in
the State. The aisles have been can
vsssed, the platform carpeted, the
black board re painted and lined,
the seats repainted and vanished,
aud the inside generally given an
overhauling. The people of Dayton
take pardonable pride in their

Mr.. Ross has been appointed Super
intendent OF the Orc mine in that
camp. he intends to work their
rock by the Frue concentrating pre-
cess This process might be success
fully applied to working some of the
Como ores. An outlay OF So per
ton will concentrate rock assaying
$l4 per ton until the matersal to be
worked will yield $1,000. Mr.. Ross
is very sanguine as to the result of
the work on the Orc, and his expert
ence as chemist and practical mine
aud mill operator entities his opinion
to great weight on matters connected
with the cheap and effective working
Of low grade or refractory ores.

Cat Fish Destroyed.

Last year George Burrier stocked
one of the ponds on his ranch with
cat fish and the new residents did
very we'll, but few weeks ago the
Indians went into the pond alter
clubs and suckers and destroyed al
most the whole family. The Indian
method is TO stir up the mud so thst
the fish cam 1t remain below. They
rise to the surface and are dipped
out in buckets. Cat fish live in
muddy waters, but they cannot get
along in pure mud, and they came
to the top and were dipped out With
the others. The Indians did not
understand the nature of the new
fish, and threw them away. Alto
gether the mud and the Indians
made clean up of the pond, and ii
will probably have to be re-stt cked,
