w. Morris, who was formerly con-
nected with the Oscoda News, assumed
control of the Reporter last Monday,
and will try and put little life into
the poor thing. Under its late man
agement the paper had become gen.
eral infection to the community, but
we are under the impression that it
has got better man at the helm than
it has had in the past, The Wash
ington style of journalism didn't seem
adapted to this part of the United
States. There is room enough in this
growing city for two papers, and we
sincerely trust that Mr.. Morris may
succeed in his endeavor to elevate the
Reporter from the slough of despond-
ency in which it has been wallowing,
and where the down town weekly or
gan is and always will be, poor, disre-
putable polccat of sheet. We were
tempted at one time to ship it, the

us any damage, we hadn't the heart
to aflict it with such a grevious load

WOman's Rights In Bnrmah.

King Theebaw, of Burmah, the biggist
bully and brute in the world, has at last
found his match in a woman who can
assert the rights of her sex. The queen
was recently confined of her third child,
which proved a daughter. Now King
Theebaw desired to have an heir to the
throne, and he resolved, therefore, like
Napoleon, to provide himself with an
other wife. Indeed, he bettered Napo-
leon, for he took two new wives, one OF
them the granddaughter of Kan-Pat-
Menghee, and the other the daughter of
a minor official The queen soon heard
of this, and, as she was unable to go to
the king, she sent him a peremptory
order to put away his new wives at once.
King Theebaw replied that he was tired
of her majesty, inasmuch as she only
presented him with daughters, and that
he was determined to free himself from
her control and to be real king. Seven
or eight days were passed in angry mes
sages, but at the end of that time the
queen left her apartments and went to
those of the king. Arrived there's he
seized the monarch, carried him of to
her own rooms, and locked him up with
the baby. She then went off and attend.
ed to affairs of state, her first act being
to cast the two new wives into prison and
have them heavily manacled.-L London

MARRIAGE BELLS.
One of Little Rocks Charming Belles Led Willing Captive
 to the Marriage Altar.
LITTLE ROCK, May p, 1882.

Tuesday evening the 9th inst, MT. Caldwell Bradshaw, promising law yer of the Little Rock bar, and Miss Annie Gray of thIs city, the youngest daughter of the late Rev. D. l.. Gray, were united in matrimony. ak E5c
 The ceremony was performed at the residence of Mr. D. l.. Gray, brother of the bride, corner Sth & Scott streets, by Dr. Welch, pastor of the Presbyteri an church. The bride was perfect picture of beauty and sweetness, so gentle, kind and true, and was well matched in the handsome and noble person of the groom. Though the storm without was raging in a degree cOmmendable for it's tierceness, all within was peace and happiness, made more sweet by the blending Of two lives whose united current flows in contin- uous ripple of harmony and love. The party though small, shared the joy of the newly welded couple, and in truth all passed of most happily, and coula be styled appropriately the model we'd ding
 The presents were many, elegant, and as follows: Handsome whlte marble clock and case, Judge B. c. Brown and wife; cut glass flower vase and silver holder, Miss Minnie Dodge; eiiameled silver water pitcher and cups, Mr. Will Gray; toilet set, MT and Mrs. Pillow, Austin, Texas; beautiful blue satin pin cushion and cologne set. hand worked, Mir. and Mrs. Kidder; one-half dozen silver forks and spoons, Mr. Geo. w. Shinn; silver butter dish, Mir. and Mrs. Y. E. Cater, Austi1, Texas; one-haIf dozen silver teaspoons, MT. and Mrs. C. E. Moore; silver castor, Mir. and Mrs. E. $. Pillow, Austin, Texas jewel ease and ten dollar gold coin, Dr. and Mrs. k. l.. Dodge; one-hslf dozen sil- yer teaspoons, Dr. and Mrs. Welch; cut glass flower and vase silver holder, MT. and Mrs. W. C.. Whipple; carving set, W. o. liardiman; silver ladle, a keep sake for fifty years past by the brides mother; porcelain comb, brush & glass, Dr. and Mrs. Cross handsome walnut clock, Mir. and Mrs. D. l.. Gray; kitchen spoon, large, Hattie Williams; bedroom set complete in walnut, carv- ed very handsomely and elegantly.
 The supper was simply elegant, and in coping with the occasion. The guests were most royalty entertained, and not until after-midnight did the last say goodnight.
 Thus blOomed into woman-hood one of our choicest young ladies, the per- fume Of whose sweet life will fill the other through the coming years with pleasure and devotion. To the newly welded couple we extend a most hearty reorganization; and as nearly as possl- bic, may the dewdrop of success ever sparkle In the morning sunlight of their perfect happiness. ***

Springdale Enterprise: Mr. Isaac Rader informs Us that the wbeat and corn near Huntsville, Madison coun. ty, are being destroyed by army worms that are over running the crops in immense numbers. Large swarins of martins are engaged in slaylmg the worms which must be poisonous, as many of the birds drop dead after eating them.
 Searcy Beacon: The overflow wash ed up large quantities of leaden bull lets and slugs on the farm of Mir. George McCauley at Beeler's ferry. Gen MeCauley showed us some of the bullets, and his theory is that a battle was fought there by the follow CTS of DeSoto and the aborigines, as some of the slugs had Spanish words or signs upon them, and he claims there are well defined remains of a Spanish fertilization on the noun tain near Mt. Pisgah church.

Fine Butter.

Pope county has long been known to produce the best of everything, and it remains for the people to bring the same to the notice of the outside world. The following from the Llttle Rock Democrat shows what is being done within our coun- ty in the line of butter making, and should nerve the people to greater effort in that direction:
 Through the efforts of Mir. W. L. Morris, editor of the Russellvile Democrat, a splendid sample of but. ter is now On exhibition at the office of the Little Rock and Fort Smith railway land department. From Col. Hellmich, cashier of the department, we learn that the butter was made by Mrs. A. W. Matthews, Of Potts sta ton, Pope county, from the milk of grade Jersey COWS. The butter is remarkably fine and has a rich, pal atable flavor, The COWS received no extra feeding, and were, we are as- sured, simply turned out on the range. The outlook for Pope coun- ty, as dalrying country, is very fine, and the pound of butter in question is tip-top advertisement. It is at tracting merited attention.

The Gazette.
RussELLvILLE, May P, ls82


 Editor Democrat:
 Granting, of course, that the man agement of the DEMOCRAT Is fully competent to manage the interests of that paper (the Russellville Dem ocrat, I mean I would suggest, in view of the outrageous and scandal ous attempt to whitewash T. J. Churchill, which was made by ihe Little Rock Gazette, in it's leading editorial last Sunday, that the club ping arrangement between your pa per and the Gazette be abolished; l; for 1 do really think that any paper that will undertake to uphold, to de fend, aid, abet, comfort and white wash an official who has been as un- faithful to the trust reposed i'll him, as totally incompetent, and as great a defaulter as the committees report shows GGz GGzzz tt:,--.::..ss,irer Churchill to be, ought to be consigned to oblivion.
 The Gazette's defence of Churchill IS simply infamous, and its attempt to transfer the responsibility to Mil Ter and Crawford IS stIll more infa nous. That editorial alone ought to cost the Gazette the loss of 5000 sub scr1bers.
 According to the Gazette's theory it IS all right for the treasurer to plunder the state of all he can, pro vided he can do it without the Au ditor detecting him in #.

Not only will he be missed by his bereaved family and friends, but the entire community will miss him. We tender condolence and sincere sympa- thy to his bereaved family, BELIsso.
