Attempted Robbery.

From Nj. 7. B1isco We learn that
two parties went to the residence
of jeff YaIlinos, II miles west of JAS.
per, Newton county, last Friday
night, and slipping into the back
door stole bis rifle from tho kitchen;
supposlng this to be all the fire
arms he had, they vent boldly 70
the front door and in aggressive
manner demanded admitlance. Ii
SO happened that VaIlines also had
a shot gun aud with this he fired
upon them, wounding one Of the
burglars. He then dubbed his gun
and rushed out upon the other and
in the scuff c that followed was shot
in the groins, it is thought fatally.
The parties were tracked by tho
blood of the wounded man some
three of four miles and suspicion
rests upon certain ones residing in
that vicinity, but no arrests have
been made yet Villinos is yet alive,
but in procarious condition.

THE people Of Huntsville are
busy building themselves a railroad
ON papcr-from Eureka Springs.
They reason aboAt as follows:
1.-TWO routes are open to the com,
pany one to the southeast, by way
OF Harrison, to Littla Rock, sap
ping the L. r. & 1T. S, road at Rus
selIville. Tho other due soUth-aI
most an air iino-by the way of
Huntsville, to somo point on the
Fl. Smith road near Ozark. The
limo of road either to Little Rock Oh
Russellyllle is necessarily a gigzlg
one. The obstacles interposed BY
nature make 1t so. The former
place cannot be reached at a dis.
lance muoh-short OF 250 nal IS, and
the latter $50. THO route, by -wgiy
of this place to Ozark, is almost d
straight one, at no Time departing
from direct line more than ono or
Two miles. Huntsville IA ~ miles
due south Of Eureka, and Ozark I,
~ miles south and 5 miles west OF
Huntsville. Ozark i, distant about
IS miles from Eureka. Tae mosl
feasible route for railroad will
very nearly follow This line. Pcrr
sons acquainted with tho country,
think that the length the road
could not exceed IS miles. The
most difficult part OF tho work would
bo at Eureka. The ridge way from
Eureka to War Eagle would be
light work, aud the desent an easy
grade. From War Eagle south, Tor
a distance Of 25 miles, the route
would be up the valley OF that
stream and the Huntsville town
branch. Crossing from War Eagle
to White River, a cut Of 60 feet OF a
tunnel ono. fourth of 4 mile in leuEIh
would be accessory. From White
River the route would pass mp the
Baldwin creek, a distance of 8 or
mllca, whore u cut of ono-lourth OF
IL milo would carry IT TO Indian
creek, which flows into Mulberry.
From tho head Of Indian creek ia
the l5t. Smith road thero would DO
no obstacle in tho way OF building
the road"

conversation TO which the note referred An g..
Mr. Hart told the reporter that wHen Alien nrsc
