--RusselIville has smaller colored
population than almost any other town
on the TT. Smith railroad. We take
pleasure. also, in stating that In point
OF integrity, and in the essential quail
ties Of good citizenship, we doubt not
they Will compare most favorably, If
they do not excel, any other point on
the road. Very little Of the litigation
in our county, be it said to their credit,
can be traced to the colored people. and
especially to those around Russellvilles

The Reflector Of last week INDUCED
its venom against Mr.. Crow, our friend
and valued correspondent from
Caglesviile, because he accepted posi-
ton offered him by the DEMOCRAT to
canvass and work for the paper. This
is certainly pushing things to an ex-
tremity when young man cannot
make his own contracts and control his
his own labor without being attacked
for It, Mr.. Grow is young man of
good sense and will gives this the
weight it deserves.

On Saturday last we had the pleas
ure of meeting with that affable gentle
man, JOHN I. Quinn, Esq, attorney at
law and real estate agent Of Paris, Lo-
gan county, Ark. who called in. the in
terest Of "Quinn's Patent Tax Receipt
and Deed Record" of which Mr.. Quinn
is the inventor and patentee. Wehave
examined the same, and find that it
consists OF double-page blank for plat
of town or city property, a full page
plat Of six townships in tracts of 40
acres each, 30 years tax receipts in le-
gal form. and so stubs for FASTING in
deeds and other papers relating to title
Of lands, SO as to form an abstract of ii.
tie, and a full page of rules for comput-
ing wages by the month and day,
weights. measures, interest and measu-
ring land. 1t is valuable thing to ev-
cry owner of real estate or taxpayer,
and well worth the price, 81, as there
can be no loss of tax receipts or deeds,
and no payment of taxes OH the wrong
land, besides facilitating the assessment
of lands and the payment of taxes. 1t
is heartily endorsed by State officials,
attorneys, bankers and business men
generally who have examined it. Mr..
Quinn only sells county rights.
