The crime was placed, by the general public, at the dsor O A. 5. Fowler, . United States gov ernnsat officer of Fort Smith, who has an sstimabls wife, and attempt cd to be shuffisd by him Fowlsr, to a Mir. Baird. A letter from tho young girl to her uncle, MT.

called the company, he pressed on in the even tenor of his way up ths little ravine hundred paces further and was seon heard crying, aBonanzar' at the top of his voice; not that he saw any money in it or much out of it, but You Reca" had already been ap- propriatsd and familiarizsd. but an appropriate name must be found for every new thing. This spring No. 4. freestone, flows out of . gently slop- ing hillside, shaded by . beautiful grove of gums, oaks, hickoriss, elms, dogwoods, and sassafrasss, with clinging vines of the grape and nus cadine. An ancient wall of solid stone work, over which great trees are growing. is in perfect tact around and over this spring. The interior has filled up with the white sand and gravel driven out by the force of the water. The temperaturs is GA and the water most excellent. The rocks here are very white sand stone and apparantly quite soft, forming excellent building material.
 Near this spot Maj. Edward Duval, Indian agent for the Cherokee Indi- ans had his home over halfa century ago. He died and was buried at this place and his grave is yet pointed out. We are informed that large and massive slab the full size of the grave was placed over the vault four or five feet under ground; that some years since party commenced, ap- parantly with view Of disintering the body, but coming to the heavy stone slab under ground, were unable to get it out and did not accomplish the object. Mai. Duvaps clerk, Thos Murray, who aftsrward was . mem Der of the Constitutional Convention of the state in 1886 upon her admiss ion into the Unicn, died in 1857 ol 1888 at Old Dwight Mission. and ii there buried it is said. Both ofthsss gentlemen were well known to enc ol eur party.
 From this spot we proceeded to re trace our steps down the ravins, leav ing the other springs to the left q short distance. We soon reached Chaly No. 2 fine stream flow ing boldly out of the opposite side from the others, clear and sparkling with temperaturs of 63. From thii . deep gorge extends southwest to ward the Arkansas river distant about two miles, Up this ravins there is . strong breeze making this spring quite . delightful resort in hot weather No. ?, or Little Indian is we think decidedly tue best min sral water there. We visited seven springs in all on the mountain, 6rd ing them within an arca of about s quarter of mile square. They are certainly worthy the attention of our enterprising hotel and stable men, easy of access and an immense sup. ply of water; grand scenery, four cities-Summer N.bo, Norristown, Dardanelle, Russsllville, and perhaps Potts Station, all in view. Noun. tains: Magazine to the west, Boston to the north and the lofty Fourchs to the south, and the Arkansas river at ito base along the south.
 Why have these springs been SC long neglectsd?. ALEXIS.
