Arkansaw Traveller.

1
Colonel Joglin, editor of the Daily
Arkansaw Trigger, was arrested and
arraigned before court on a charge OF
assault with intent to wipe from the
face OF the earth. Some time ago a
young man, who for several months
had been a journalist, secured posi-
ton on the Trigger. Shortly after.
ward the people in the neighbood we're
startled by distressing noises, and hur-
rying to the Trigger Office they found
Colonel Joglin standing over the
young man belaboring,as Mark Twain
delights to say, the immortal soul out
Of him with a board. In court the
Colonel made no denial of the assault,
but declared he had cause to act
with decision which some people,
in their ignorance. might term vic
lence.
The young man was a reporter was
hep asked the Judge.
Yes, he was a journalist"
Did you whale him because he
failed to make personal mention of
the fact that you had returned from
a visit to Uncle Billy So and-So, who
lives out in the Willie oak district"
mo, sir"
well, did you fall on him because
he said Miss Such-aud Such, the
beautiful and accomplished daughter
OF General Blow and -Puf-the freck-
led face girl who giggles-was on a
visit to the amiable and handsome
daug hter of the editor>in-chi

read the following from his paper:
I'VE were very much pleased to meet
the other evening John Guguckle, the
rising young attorney of Snakeville,
the silvery tongued orator of Mule
head county. Now, sir, this silvery
tongue and rising young lawyer bust
ness has been carried long enough.
Every fellow in the State, who stays in
a lawyers Office, is rising young at
torney and silvery tongued orator.
Here's another notice: We were de-
lighted yesterday to form the &C.
quaintance of Mr.. Thomas Meatwing,
of Snakeville, who is a rising young
attorney and the silvery tongued ora.

few more, Judge: Captain James

scores of friends in the city, and who
is rising young attorney of Mule.

stand that any longer. So many sill
very tongues from one county sickened
me, and | downed the rising young
journalist"
OF course you acted in self de.
fense," the Judge replied. II regret
very much that you did not kill the
silvery tipped young journalist, but in
the belief that you discharged your
duty to the best of your ability, will
discharge you"

A Useful Invention by u Mississ
sippi Woman.
Waahin0ton Post

To the long and honored list Of
women inventors, reference to whom
was made in the Sunday Post a few
weeks ago, may be added the name of
Mrs. K. v. D. Miller, Of Vicksburg,
Miss, a lady whose familiarity with
the culture of cotton has suggested to
her a contrivance that promises to
greatly facilitate the picking of the
feecy staple. It is Q simple structure,
operated Somewhat Ikea pair Of scis-
sOrs, with semi.spherical nippers in
stead Of blades, BY which the cotton
can be deEtropsly separated from its
ealg{, end With mqoh greater ease and
Fapidity than BY the hngeEp. This
little harvester, as they call It at The
patent Office, will be a great boon 70
the grand army of cotton pickers, and
MfSs, Miller is to be congratulated upon
having secured official recognition of
her valuable invtntiOn,

or suggestion, contrived to draw hin
fromSpain tOItaly and he reeited tome
passages from the great masters with
thrilling eloquenee. 1t was 10 pm
before the ladies LETT the table. Mr.
Davis introduced some 5chwebbed
bottles Of South Side Madeira, that
had been imported by Bingham, the
great merchant OF Philadelphia dur
ing Washington's administration. We
all knew that his daughter had mar
ried Mr.. Barring, afterwards Lord
Ashburton, who had negotiated with
Mr.. Webster the northeastern bound
airy controversy, and thus averting q
menacing issue between two great
kindred nations. The wine, of course.
was delicious, apart from its historical
associations, aud | must say Mr..
Everett inhaled its aroma and ims
bibed it With the air Of connoisseur.
After two or three glasses be grew
still more fascinating, and the warm,
sunny tints of the generous fluid col.
ored his Thoughts and his language.
AS the clock strutk one, he rose and
recited in Spanish, Sancho Panza's
eulogy on sleep.
Col. Bingaman then addressed him
IN a dialect not understood By any at
the table but Mr.. Davis and myself
the Choctaw-a language musical and
resonant as the ancient Greek.
"MingO of the Massachusetts,, fare
well! Return to the wigwams of your
fathers. where the mighty waters roll
their pillows, and the voice of the
Great Spirit thunders along the shore.

River, and that in every hamlet and

their fathers, and cherishing their
ashes.
"Sacheml May sunshine light your
path, and peace go with you to your

The man who uttered those eloquent
words in tones that magnetized the
brilliant orator from Boston, and all
who were present--the most gifted
son of MissisSippi-died almost with
out an attendant, was buried without |

obscure grave in a chilling and dreary |

NO" Very we'll. said the chorus,

Owing to change Of residence, from
Wh:tman COUNTY, in this Territory, to
Nez Perce county, Idaho, the Hon. ia
cob Hoover, who was elected By large
maj nrity, at the last election, as represen-
tative to the legisla iure is debarred from
taking his seat; and in view of the fact
that the people OF Whitman county are
iesirous Of replacing Mr.. Hoover with a
live man, Of experience and energy, the
STATESMAN suggests tha, the Hon. L. NJ.
Ringer, of Almota, be that man. He has
heretofore served the people in the legis-
la'ive halls, and no taint OF corrup.ion
has c,ung TO his skirts; moreover, he ls a
good Democrat, and no man is more thor
cu.ily identified with or more conyersant
with the wants of this upper country.
TIE STATESMAN would be pleased to re-

Mr.. vILLARDg VISIT.

Mr.. Willard has come and gone. Hr
yi.ir vas OF short and bWiness-like char
ac,er. He has vast posessions and I
great trade here, and he came to Set
them. He desired to inerease both pas
sessions and trade, and he had plans fol
effectiD. his object which he aimed to pu
into effect. He saw our leading citizens
discussed the matter wish them and &c
conplished his purpose. That the result
will be beneficial TO HIM and 10 the Co:
porations represented By him, We sincere
" trust; that they wil be good for Uul
people, town and cuun,y, We are ccnh
dent. Re is willing and anxious to DE-
al. for our place and people that they
could reasonably expect. He made Meth
er Wild assertions nor rash premises, bu'
told in a straight forward manner sha. h'
had dune and what he would do. He CT
identity thinks well Of Seattle, and DC
heyes il one of the great points Of the
North Pacific coast. 1t Is not a point
that he has intention or desire to slight
On the contrary, he will do ahst he CON
sisteutly can to build 1t up. L. Is very
plain that there is no other place IN the
Territory stands higher in his estimation
The chief assurance our people have a.
the great result Of his visit is the build,
ing of third line Of railroad, . purely
King county road, leading into q new and
highly productive country, rich in tim
Der, eoal aud agricultural capabilities
The building Of that road will involve ths
expenditure of at least half q million dol.
lars, and will be to the people Of this
county what the building OF the PuyalluE
road was to the people OF Pierce county,
and what the building of tho Walluls
road was to the people of WAlla Walls
county. 1t will not only mean the sd
dItion Of half a million dollars to the
wealth of the county in the road itself
but it will mean three times as much
more in the course of the next two year
in the way of farms. new mines and MILL
and new towns. 1t will also politically
cement the county Of King, and do axal
With feeling nurtured along the south
ern border in favor Of county division
And not only will the building Of thil
road effect these things, but it will NOR
directly place US on the line Of the roat
over the Cascade mountains, wheneve
that road may be built. We will then b.
on an equality, at least, with any o,he
town in this regard, and if Seattle canno
hold its own against any other Puge
Sound town when equally situSted, it wi
be- new revelation to her citizens, as wei
as a new and ddisagreeable experience. MIR
Willard expressed himself surprised ant
pleased at the growth Of our city sine,
his previous visit, in October, 1881
When he comes again, in September next
we'll give him much greater surpris'
and an increased measure of pleasure
