 Col. w. E. Atkinson by his i'm, passioned eloquenbe in-placing Hon. T. c. McRae in nomination at the Texarkana convention and by other speeches, made himself a reputation as an orator. He is now termed "the silver tongued oI ator of the Third district"

 We noticed our genial editorial friend, Col. J. R. Gotham of the Monticellonian, of Drew county, on the train Monday on his way home after visiting relatives at Washing ton. He was the leader of the Barker forces at Texarkaua, and being quite versatile and lively right well did he occupy the place.
 Col. Pat Rice, Little Rock law yer, was walking around on the streets here Tuesday morning il company with Rev. Mir Traylor whi ch led several to take a close look at him under the misappre hention that it was Mir. Dixon c Williams, the evangelist. They al agreed that he was q much hand somer man than they expected tC see that is, we suppose they did. though they did not say so uneQui vocally.
 Thursday negro defrauded the railroad and has since came to grief. Jeff Hanegan wanted to come back to Prescott from Lit tie Rock, but only had p cts. tc come on, so he bought ticket to Guifford the first station for that amount, and then scratched out Guifford and wrote Prescott in its stead. The conductor at once saw into the fraud, hence had the dar- key spotted and afterward arrest ed. IL is now claimed Jeff is inno' cent, another negro being the de- frauder.
