APRIL FLOWERS.

Levers of spring flowers, says William
EEnnble in the Student, will find this
uanzth most of our species of violets in

Genus is into two parts, or sub-genera,
sue including the stemless or acaulescent
specie, the other the leafy-stemmed or

and the pansy, Viola tricolor, the latter.
Ea the one case the flowers proceed from
zhe axis of the leaves, but the leaf-inser-
saazss are SO crowded that both flowers and
sszxes seem to have their origin at or be-
sw the surface of the soil, while in the
zxfssr case there is a conspicuous leafy
sesm also producing the flowers in the

Egyptian News.

A London correspondent cables as follows A member of the govern ment assures me that the reports of Arabis intentions to offer terms of surrender are entirely unfounded. Very little confidence can be placed in the correspondents at Alexandria. All important probabilities are care
 fully hidden from them. An eXami- ming party approached the forts at Aboukir this morning. The Egyp- tians made ready to fire and the English retired abruptly. The gov ernment has little information of the progress of Arabi's affairs. It is not sanguine that he will surrender. The only terms will be banishment for himself and officers, the disband ment of the bulk of his troops, and the punishment of all suspected com plicity in the alleged massacre. Arabi sent delegates yesterday to meet the British flag of truce. They were most insulting to the English officers. They said they would re- sist to the bitter end-that Arabi had the whole country with him. The deputies retired, sneering at the English professions and threats. There seemed no foundation for the reports of Arabi's acts of hostility to the interests of the Europeans. Arabi is obviously playing q waiting game. The report that he took the custom money at Alexandria now proves to be lie A telegram from him to private party here bitterly complains of the prejudiced reports. Arabi has the means of knowing the English movements. Even the off cers surrounding the khedive com municate witlrArabi. He also gets important information from Constan- tinople.

They Want a Railroad.

A correspondent of the Fort Smith Elevator, writing from Bonneville, Logan county, thus delivers himself on the subject of railroads
 Come to our aid, ye men of capi- tai, and build a railroad from Rus sellyille via Dardanelle, Magazine, Bonneville, Greenwood, and Jenny Lind to Fort Smith. This route would be up the Petit Jean valley, which cannot be excelled for it's fa- cllities of production, there having been between 90 and 100 thousand bushels of wheat raised this spring in this great valley of land. It is q level country all along the proposed line, and would be comparatively no expense than the actual putting-up the cross ties and laying the track, Several thousand bales of cotton are annually raised in this valley and it is rapidly improving, and If it could only get the aid Of convenient transportation we would soon be second to none in the way of trade So please send us Capt. Jack, or some other noted engineer, to exam inc this great country and by and by build broad gauge road through this country that is fully ample to supply the wants of our energetic citizens.

proclamation declaring Arabi Pasha l rebel as demanded by England.

proclamation declaring Arabi Pasha a rebel as demanded by England.
 Mouklar Pasha has made arrange ments which will enable the porte to despatch 10000 men to Egypt in successive detachments.
 The sultan, replying to the verbal representations of Lord Dufferin, the British ambassador, requesting the immediate issue of proclamation against Arabi Pasha, states that such demand cannot be made by England alone, but should proceed from the conference of the powers, in case it would receive due conside- ration.
 Affairs in Egypt remain in statu quo, no fighting or skirmishing, but the English army is being gradually reinforced and vast preparations for a vigorous prosecution of the war.
 A dispatch of the 3lst ult., from London says: The Times editorially remarks: eve have ample reason for believing that the expedition the porte is now determined to send to Egypt has no other object than to thwart and oppose the efforts England is now making to restore order there. Cooperation might be accepted ii the Turks should send a moderate contingent to act under orders of the British commanders. The obvious design of Turkey is to exclude England al- together and to maintain that we have no right in Egypt. It is, there fore, mere trifiing to continue nego- tiatlons for the purpose of getting such worthless pledges of good faith as proclamation against Arabi Pasha. It is for the British cabinet to show that it appreciates the gray ity of the situation and to devise measures for guarding the national interest, and for the vindication of the national honor, both of which are in serious jeopardy"

Breckenridge, candidate for congressman at-large The distinguished gentlemen will speak at this place next Saturday, the 9th instant Let every democrat in Pope county be on hand to hear the talented gentlemen speak. From the state press, we glean the pleas ing intelligence that the democratic state ticket is gaining strength in every section, and that the splendid material of which it is composed commands the respect and esteem of all With such q ticket and the putting aside of local prejudices and bickerings, success will be inscribed upon the banner of the Arkansas democracy.

Enforcement of the Law.

The citizens of Prescott intend to enforce the "three, mile" law, as will be seen by the following from the Dispatch of the the 27th instant;
 For some time past the number of drunken men upon our streets has shown that the order of the county court, based upon the petition Of q large majority of the adult citizens within three miles of Prescott, pro hibiting the sale of intoxicating llq- uors, has been violated. Hence on last Monday night quite number of citizens held q meeting and resolv. ed to take some steps to secure the enforcement of the law. Quite q sum of money was raised, with which to procure counsel, and q committee on prosecution was appointed. This committee at once retained the ser vices of Smootc & McRae, Atkinson & Webber and Warren * Mitchell, law firms ol this place. On Tues day morning quite number of ar rests were made, and as we now write, the cases are before the courts. Col. Dan. W. Jones of Washington, and w. II. Arnold Esq, and L. P. Ross Esq, of this place, are retained by the defendants.

All Wrong.

Bro. Birdsall, editor of the Pine Blnh Commercial, takes the correct view of political differences, as the following from that excellent jour. nal will show
 It is about time that the much. abused American citizen should cease making it casus belli because hls friend and neighbor differs with him in politics, or because he has his own views in regard to the man agement of county politics. Some overzealous patriots even go so far as to attempt to dragoon others into their modes and methods of thought and action This is all wrong, even as much so as if the Protestant church should seek to lash others into their methods of the ordinance of baptism,

ENOUGH has been heard from the primaries of Pulaski, Conway and Logan counties to know that Judge Rogers has received sufficient votes to insure him the nomination for congress in this district. It seems that the democracy of the third dis trict do not deem six years of true service q sufficient recommendation for them to base an endorsement upon. We hope Judge Rogers, Il talented and able gentleman, will do as we'll as that devoted servant of the people, Col. Crayens, has done in the halls of congress.

TIE ultra temperance men of Ar kansas will not he satisfied until the present "threc mile" option law is made applicable to cities of the first and second class, or q prohibition amendment is tackled to the consti- tuition, while the moderate advocates of the cause are in favor of the law as it stands. The latter is the pop ular side and the people arc not go ing to risk losing it to follow after the ultras. The DEMOCRAT has un- bounded faith in the people and be- lieves they will stand firm in their advocacy of that which will provide the greatest good for the greatest number. The people are all-power- ful at the ballOt-boX and will make themselves heard.
The Russellville Democrat., 1882-08-03

TnE ultra prohibitionists can win if they will put their forces to work in those counties where the cities of the first and second class are located. as the law puts the means of victory ill their hands, if they will but avail themselves of the benefits thereof. A great deal has been said about the partiality of the three mile liquor law, and the last legislature, in it's wisdom, enacted law to en- able the ultras to gain their point. It is in words as follows:
 At each general election for State officers there shall be submitted to the qualified voters of each county the question as to whether license shall or shall not be granted by the County Court of such county for the sale of vinous, ardent, malt or fer mented liquors, or any compound or preparation thereof commonly called tonic bitters or medicated liquors, in any quantity or for any purpose, within such county for two years. commencing on first day of January next ensuing. That in voting upon said question the electors shall have printed or written upon their ballots for license,' or against license. If at such election the majority of the votes cast in any county upon the question be not for license,' then it shall be unlawful for the County Conrt of such county to grant license for the purpose mentioned in the preceding section, at any place with in said county, until after the next general election" etc.
 The section of the law we have quoted can be found in the Acts of 1881, page l32. It is in the power of the people to put their seal of con demnation on the liquor traffic in cities of the first and second class, and, if they do not avail themselves of the benefit extended to them by the law, it will be their fault. The people in the counties, where there are no cities of the first and second class, have taken advantage of the best that was offered to them, the three mile law, and are not worry ing themselves about their metropo- titan friends. So far as the people of Pope county are concerned, we have no hesitancy in saying they are conservative on this question and are satisfied with the benefits of the three mile" law.

A FEW weeks since we mentioned the murder of MT. Milton Smith by his little son Guy. The murder was committed at the family residence near kirkwood, Mo. It seems that Guy and his brother quarreled. for which Mir. Smith whipped both. Guy went to the kitchen, washed his hands, then went to his grandmoth- CTS room, got shotgun which was kept there, returned to the kitchen where bis father was and cmptied the contents of one barrel of the gun into his body, causing death in q few hours. A dispatch from St. Louis, dated July 29, gives the fore going particulars and concludes as follows:
 Guy was arrested yesterday, and to-day his trial for murder in the first degree progressed at Clayton, the county seat. This evening the jury returned q verdict of guilty, and the child will probably be sen fenced to be hanged. The verdict was surprise and the case through out has been a singular one, and has excited great deal of interest. The boy is not thirteen years old yet, and has been strange child from birth. His head is abnormally large and high and runs almost to q point, like bone. He has a quick, strong temper, and physicians say has all ways been liable to water on the brain. He acknowledged on the witness stand that he meant to shoot ms father and hurt him as badly as ne the father) had hurt him, but didn't intend to kill him.
