The Russellville Democrat., 1882-06-22

"A few weeks ago, a tannery, and extensive boot and shoe manufactory were among the talked of enterprises in Little Rock, but the mevem ent fell stillborn. Mir. J. NJ. Ianey, superin- tcndent of the Melrose Cotton Mill i, wrote to MT. Cutter, the gentleman who wishes to establish the industry above mentioned, Inviting his attention to Russellville as suitable place for it, and Mir. Cutter replied in favorable terms. With little energy and liber- ality, there is no doubt our people could secure the location of the factory at this place. Such an enterprise in our midst would do much toward mak- ing it one of the most noted points In the State. Let not our business men lose one moment of time or leave a stone unturned to secure this great en- terprise to our city Action, immedi- ate action, is all that is needed Mir. Haney is prepared to give information regarding Mir, Cutter and the factory he proposes to establish, and we res pectfully urge our progressive citizens to consult with him in refe renee to the matter. A large tannery, and boot and shoe factory would be no small addition to the numerous enterprises of Russell vile.
 TIE SOUTHERN CULTIvAroR We have received the June number of the Southern Cultivator and Dixie Farmer, and as usual 1t Is full of interesting reading matter for farmers and their families. A comparison of this ster- ling journal with similar publications, North and South, shows decidedly in favor of the Cultivator and Farmer. In quantity the latter has about one-half more than any other and every article bears the impress of care in selection or thought i'll preparation. Every num- Der of the Cultivator has letter from Bill Arp. prepared exclusively for it, Special attention is given to the inter- ests of "Patrons of Husbandry," the Secretary of the State Grange being employed to write in the interest of that order. Our opinion is that if the Gull tiyator finds it's way into the farmers home, it will always be q welcomed visitor. Messrs. Jas. F. Harrison & Co.,, Atlanta, Ga., publish it for the nominal sum of $l .50 per annum.
 The Literary Guild met last Mon day night at the bright and pleasant home of Mir. and Mrs. J. F. Munday. The attendance was not large, yet the meeting was an exceedingly pleasant one. Among the items of business acted upon was resolution providing that the Guild take vacation until the first Monday night in September next. Such step was deemed necessary on account of the heat of the summer and the absence of many of the members from the city. The report of the presi- dent showed that the net proceeds of the dramatic entertainments recently given, under the auspices of the Guild, amounted to $ll .95, which Is deemed to be gratifying financial success, when the great expense attendant upon the production of the play is considered
 If you want to keep cool during the present torrid spell of weather, go to the cozy little establishment of Nr. Ed. Bernard, southwest corner Main and Jefferson street, and treat yourself and your sweetheart to some of the superb ice cream kept there. Ed. is a worthy young gentlemen and deserves success.
 Do not forget that our town has q chair factory that is prepared to fur nish good chairs at low figures. Call on the proprietor, MT. J $. Church.
 -"Church billiards" commonly known as croquet, is among the most liberally patronized games at this sea- son Of the year.
 In spite of the dull times, goods of all kinds continue to arrive in consid- craele quantities for the merchants in this section.
 The platform at the depot looks like machine shop yard with the vast quantity of the cotton mill machinery piled on it.
 Georgia costumes would be pleas ant, if not picturesque, during the prevalence Of the present heated term.
 1t is too warm to play draughts, that exhilarating CD game usually in- dulged in during the summer.
 An enterprise that Russellville needs-an ice factory.
