RAILROAD building may hereafter be-
come thing Of the past in Arkansas. The
prosperity of a State, in a great measure,
depends upon enlightened legislation, and
whereas our sister States have adopted
many wise measures to encourage immi-
grafton and build up railways. The short
sighted policy of Arkansas has been to
raise the tax assessment of railway lines
from one hundred to two hundred per
cent; thus driving capital from the State
and Gripping railway extension and pro-
gress, so that many years may probably
elapse before Arkansas will go forward as
her more liberal sisters are doing.

The first lady of the land, title given
to the presiding lady at the White House,
has written and will shortly publish book,
entitled George Eliot and other studies"
Miss Cleveland has fine intellectual charac-
teristics, with that simplicity Of bearing
which should ever mark a distinguished
and noble woman. A sister Of the Presi-
dent, she has wide spread influence, and
it is pleasant to think that her influence is
not that of a pretentious or purely fash
ionable woman. But that, as an American,
she is representative, being gifted, well ed
ucated, and above all, having that strong,
fine common sense which renders Ameri-
can women the discriminating adusters of
circumstances and situations. Ours is a
government Of change and can never solid
lily, or ossify, as it were, to the mechanical
routine Of foreign governments. As our
men receive position, growing thoughtful
and wise under the responsibility, so our
women, with every change Of President,
step to their positions, gentle, yet digni
fed; judicious, learned, with that nice,
discriminating sense which discernS and
can act with foresight and wisdom. Such
woman we judge is Miss Cleveland, and

1t seems that there is still an amount
OF the States appropriation for the exposi-
ton left over. In the Woman's Depart
ment at the exposition we learn that there
was some curiosity concerning the women
OF Arkansas, if education is general among
us; If we have cultivated tastes, or any
accomplishments. And this curiosity 50
just, is what we suppose might be felt
toward State with fine exhibit, and yet
with nothing amid the exhibit of women's
work-nothing that an Arkansas woman
has done. We mistake, there were some
embroideries in a glass bottle sent by some
colored women from Arkansas. And this
is all, we are told, of Arkansas women's
work. When our State was first preparing
an exhibit for the Worlds Exposition
there was much enthusiasm amid the ladies'
of the State, this was quenched by the
story that there was not an appropriation
sufficient to encourage the women of the
State in an endeavor to set their indus
tries or accomplishments side by side with
the women Of other States. So Mrs. Kate
Bishop and Mrs. Creed Walker, lady com
missioners, who hoped to have seen our
women well represented, were compelled
by the circumstances Of the case, to give up
all plans in the matter. And now there is
a surplus of the fund appropriated for ex-
position purposes, and yetthe noble women
of fine commonwealth, are supposed by
the world at large to be ignorant idIers,
amid the educated and accomplished women
Of the United States. Really, gentlemen,
are we not primus inter pare8.
The American reviewers Of the Old
Testament have lately received their copies
of the work, and the presentation copies are
soon to be sent to their destination. Eight
hundred Of these are to be sent to liberal
Americans who contributed each thirty
dollars to forward the labor of the distin-
guished Hebrai8ts. One change will seem
peculiar in the new revision, and that is
the dropping of all headings of chapters.
These headings we're theological additions,
separate and apart from the original Bible.
