being firm believers in the protection
doctrine. II seems that the Republicans
in Congress did not stand by them as
firmly as they should when the wool
tariff was under discussion last winter.
The reduction Of the tariff on wool was
greater than on wooden goods.
Fred Douglass utterauce in his speech

nize the political equality Of the negro by
giving a negro the second place on their
Presidential ticket. or a Cabinet position
in the event Of Republican success. Is
attracting more attention than any other
feature of the Louisville Convention. IL
is thought that the utterance means that
the Republican party must do about what
Douglass suggests or lose the cOlored
vote. The negro seems to. be getting
troublesome TO the party.

The descendants Of William Bradford,
the first Governor Of Plymouth Colony,
are not as happy as they were few
months ago. They had an idea that there
were untold millions in the Bank of Eng
land waiting for them to claim it. They
formed themselves into an association
and hired a lawyer to visit England 10
collect the money. The lawyer was in
formed by the chief accountant of the
bank that there wasn't cent in the bank
belonging 10 the Bradford heirs and never
had been. This is about the outcome Of
all the stories about vast sums IN the
Bank Of England awaiting American
claimants.

HICKMAN, ARK, FEB. ~, 1888.
EDITOR OscEoLA TIMEs:-W. 7.
Partlow was shot and killed on Sat
urday evening last, by Oscar Buck
ner, colored. Partlow was running
Swearingen & Co.'S Engine, and it
appears that he and Buekner had had
difficulty, in which Partlow struck
Buckner with brick-bat, which on
ly staggered him, and he turned and
walked out Of the Engine room, re-
marking as he went out, "That's all
right" In about half hour, or less,
returning toward the Clubhouse, he
met Partlow, who was on his way to
the store house to get lantern, as
it was growing dark, and lights were
needed in the engine room--togeth-
er they were seen walking toward
the store, and when about thirty or
forty steps from the Clubhouse, two
shots were fired by Buckner at Part
low, one of them taking effect, and
proved fatal. Partlow only lived
ten or fifteen minutes after being
shot, the ball entered the left side
near the heart.
Buckner was arrested soon after
the shooting took place, and is at the
present writing under guard. The
trial will come off before Esquire
T. II. Musgrave on the 2lst. inst.
This is about as near the facts of
the case as l can gather them.

So prevalent is the habit of talk

So prevalent is the habit of talk
ing small nonsense in company, that
even thinking people mask their in
telligence by its use. But let some
one person bring sensible topic OF
conversation forward, and it is won
derful how soon he will be surround
ed by others, well informed concern
ing it, and anxious to diffuse their
knowledge. The trouble is, we do
not understand each other. Men
have become thoroughly impressed
with the idea that in order to make
themselves agreeable they must keep
up'a constant stream of nonsense
and silly utterances, and the ladies
seem to have formed the same idea
in regard to the gentlemen, until out
of this mutual misunderstanding has
grown this empty, meaningless jar
gon of words at almost every social
entertainments short shower OF
soap bubbles.-[New Era.
The Osceola times., 1883-02-24

From the Biennial Report of the
Auditor of State we CLEAN the fol-
lowing facts:
In 1880, Mississippi county re-
ported 5l456O acres of land, that is,
improved lands, with structures ther'-
on, which was valued at 81 ,07S, ,295;
in 1881, the acreage was the same,
but valued at only 81 1,Oo2, ,425, de-
crease in valuation of S24,S70. City
or town lots with structures thereon
were valued, in 1880, at $56,833; in
1881, they were valued at only s52,
70S, decrease of $3,025. In view
of the many added improvements
throughout the county during the
year 1901, and especially in the
town of Osceola, where some 12 OF
Is new buildings were erected, some
of them very valuable, the heavy de,
crease in valuation seems little
strange, unless, indeed, it be tina,
the real estate was valued too high
in 1880, to which opinion we rather
incline.
In the matter of printing the Fish.
back. or Amendment No. /, the sew,
eral newspapers of the state are
charged with SOS, as the amount Of
printing fee paid each one.
Speaking for the Osceola Times
which is included in the list as hav.
ing received $l0S, we would state
that the Times made out its bill fol
Sis, charging for 8 squares, actual
measurement, twenty-six insertions
81 for first Insertion and 80 cents
for each subsequent insertion. This
account was returned with state,
ment to the effect that "the rest O
the newspapers in the state had, ant
The Osceola times., 1883-02-24

were receiving but 500, and that the
Times was expected to make out its
bill accordingly" and $96 was the
amount the Times received. We
merely mention this to see if others
of the brethren of the press were
served in the same way. A differ
ence of twelve dollars from each
newspaper in the state, should that
prove to be the case, is not a bad
slice for one man to yank from the
state press, when we consider that
the amendment was published in
over a hundred papers. Let the
brethren speak out. If the Times
was the only victim, we want to
know it, so we may profit by our ex-
perience, in the future.

The Flood.

The overflow is again upon us.
The waters which had gradually been
encroaching upon the banks during
the past ten or twelve days. sloshed
over Thursday morning, and Osceola
is under water. The annual work
of raising the sidewalks and gather
ing up floating and pcrishab!e prop
erty is being religiously attended to.
Men and boys, in all manner of wa
ter crafts, and gum boots, may be
seen removing household plunder,
cows and calves, chickens, dogs and
cats, &C., to places Of safety. The
outlook, at this present juncture, to
men of the lobe-Democrat type,
who were sent down last Spring to
write up the overflow, must nece.sa-
rily be one of gloon and desponden-
cy; but to the average native who
has a peculiar faculty Of adapting
himself to circumstances, takes to
water as naturally as duck, and
while he may not desire it, halls and
endurcs it as matter of course. The
swamps and low lands are filling up
rapidly, and as is usually the case,
suffering and distress must necessari-
ly follow, as communication with
the rerpoter settlements become cut
off. Private charities have been SO
heavily taxed in the past few months
for alleviating misfortunes not only
in our own country, but in Europe,
disasters seem SO to follow hard one
upon another, that it would not be
reasonable to expect assistance from
any other source than from the gov
ernment itself; and indeed, even
from this source, it is questionable
whether or not it would reach the
class of sufferers those sought to be
benefited, and needing relief. We
had glaring example last year of
the misappropriation of government
relief, which, it is hoped, for sake of
dccency and the reputation of our
community and county will not be
repeated.

A Good Foundation.

In American households the pre-
vailing complaints are weakness Of
the stomach and its consequences,
Indigestion, Nervousness and Rheu-
matism. Such sufferers can lay good
foundation for health by using Par
ker's Ginger Tonic as it tones up the
stomach and nerves, and keeps the
kidneys active to carry off the foul
matter.1N. o. Picayune. {.

A HANDSOME Book FREE.

We have received copy of j. T.
Lovett's Illustrated Catalogue of
Trees and Plants for the Spring of
1883, and it is decidedly the hand
soonest, most sensible and instructive
Nursery Catalogue we have yet seen.
1t is copiously illustrated with truth
full engravings and coi0ed plates Of
the best fruits, and, what isquite re-
markable, the descriptions are hon.
est; while the instructions for plant
ing, cultivation and management are
models of perspicuity and concise
ness. BY liberal dealing, close ap-
plication to business, and enterprise,
Mr.. Lovett has built up large bust
ness and an enviablc reputation, ship
ping as he does, plants and trees not
only to every State and Territory in
the Union, but to almost every coun-
try upon the globe. Although a
specially is made of Small Fruits,
all kinds are grown extensively, with
ornamental trees and plants, roses,
etc. 1t will be remembered that Mr..
Lovett is the introducer of the now
famous Cuthbert Raspberry and
Manchester Strawberry, and that he
is now disseminating the celebrated
Hansell Raspberry and Early Har-
vest Blackberry (the earliest varie-
ties of these two important berries),
all of which are fully illustrated and
described in his elegant Catalogue,
which will be mailed to any one
sending a postal card to him at Lit
tie Silver, New Jersey, requesting it.

pears in order to appease the

A Valuable Material.

| A gentleman in the glass bust
ness informed Reno Gazette repor
ter that discovery has been made
by which glass can be manufact'
ured SO cheaply that it VII dis
place cut stone and brick for build.
ing purposes besides filing thous-
ands of new wants. The trouble
in making glass blocks has always
been that in cooling they cracked,
because the heat did not come out
uniformaly. This has been RENE
died so that any size can be cast
| and cooled without a f.w. Walls
| can be built of different colored
blocks and holes left for chimneys
right through the middle. Floors
can be laid in in, pavements over
Easements, etc. The materials are
everywhere, and are of the cheapest
kind, and there seems no reason
whv glass cannot be made very
cheap.
If this discovery has really been
made there is another incalculable
advantage to be derived from it
which the Gazette has overlooked.
1t will enlarge the field over which
astronomers can rove and enable
them to tell to certainty whether
or not planets are Inhabited. It is
estimated that a lense twelve feet
in diameter, or thereabouts, would
enable an astronomer to plainly see
an object upon the surface of the
moon the size of man, and tense
fifteen feet in diameter would re-
veal an OBJECT the size of mans
hat. The only obstacle which has
stood in the way of constructing
these telescopes has been the i'm
possibility of casting lenses beyond
a certain size which would not
crack in cooling. The last attempt
to construct a large tense was upon
the Lick telescope and few days
ago it cracked, although it had been
several weeks in the process of
cooling. If q Reno man has sue
ceeded in overcoming this difficult
ty it will revolutionize the science
of astronomy.
