CARSON LAKE, Aug. "a, 1885.
EDITOR TIMrs-Sir: ! notice in
the Carson Lake neighborhood the
best cotton crop ever saw, but late
corn will be almost an entire failure,
on account of the dry weather.
The Lake is pretty we'll dried up,
and the coons, razor-backed hogs and
shy,pokes, or, hy-up-the-creeks are
having a regular picnic on the dead
and dying fish.
The bears are catching and feeh-
ing on Squire J. W. Taylor's hogs,
and in order to keep even with them,
the old gentleman went out to see
what he could find to shoot that the
game law did not protect. When
out in the woods and cane, he spied
something wlich'he took for a wolf,
or some other animal, and let go a
handful of shot. The Squire thought
it was a pretty serious Joke, when he
went to pick up his game, to find
that he had killed his favorite dog,
WHO had followed him out in the
woods without his knowledge.

your presence just about five years
ago at Barbecue held near the

you run out on this occasion you
would have enjoyed yourself. About
a quarter of mile from the grove,
we had an outside issue, consisting
of a circular swing, candy manufac-

seldom indulge in out here; and the
most pleasant feature of the affair
was, we had the best Of order.

borhood, from what we can learn,
has had less rain ihan other parts OF
the county. yet, we have the finest
cotton crop ever raised On Chicka-
sawba. The late corn Is considera-
bly, damaged, but we will have
enough of early corn to run us. The

of sickness, or rather, we have had

Dangerous Bowel Dis
orders,

Now that bowel disorders, sucl
as cholera, cholera morbus, diarrhea
looseness, pains in the bowels, sc.
are prevalent all over TIE country
all should prepare for sudden emcr-
gencies. Mansieli's "Mississlppt
Dlarrhca" Cordial is the standard
remedy. 1t has stood the test by
untold thousands for upwards OF
thirty years, and has never failed in
a single instance. Every steamer
plying the "Father of Waters" car
rles it, and relies upon it exclusively
for the cure of bowel disorders. One
dose often alters the .ecretions, heals
and cures, and few doses never
fail Have it handy, 1t is safe, reli-
able aud the best remedy of the kind

Ifyou want exercise, get that mule,

--Osceola, Gguratively speaking,
has been shaken from center to cir
conference, or. in other words, from
hub to tire, over the disclosures made
public by proceedings instituted in
magistrates court, charging a
young man of the town with the
crime of rape, but when the time
fixed for trial arrived, the prosecutor
failed to put in an appearance, and
the case was dismissed. Without
the least desire to pander to vice, by
giving it greater publicity through
the public print, or fan the already
dying sparks OF disgraceful and dis
gusting scandal, we would remind
our readers, and especially those who
have the care and rearing of girls
and boys, of the lines of the poet:
Vice is a monster of such hideous mien, &c.
And that though too late to restore
the purity and innocence of one who
deserved better treatment at the
hands Of her associates and compan-
ions, it is not too late to begin to
save others from like or worse fate.
Begin the work Of purifation by
suppressing and driving out from our
midst the bawdy houses and lewd
characters who have been permitted
by the authorities to infest the com
munity, and who boldly walk the
streets at all hours, plying their vo-
cation. They are putrid scabs upon
the social life OF the community, and
corrupting and demoralizing the
young of both sex. They are an
abomjnation and worse than a pesti-
lencc. Away with them. Parents
would be surprised to know how
many of their little ones, whom they
regard as pure and unsullied, are fa-
miliar with the slang and language
that characterizes the traffic of sexual
Generalization.

From our ChirhasaW w ba
Correspondent.

EDITOR TIMrs-Dear Sir: 1t is
nv pleasure to chronicle a brief ac-
count of one of til; largest and most
pleasureable gathering that we have
ever had assembled in our commu-
nifty, under the auspices Of the two
Sabbath School is s- Blythesville and
North Sawba. There was an i'm.
mense arbor built by the teachers
and friends of the North Sawba
Sunday School, 60 X 81 feet, seating
comfortably 800 persons, and by 10
o'clock there were fully 1000 peo-
pie on the ground. The exercises
were begun by the two schools form
ing in line upon the walk that had
been prepared for them, distance
of 300 yards-making beautiful
avenue, shaded the entire distance.
After having marched and counter
marched and singing appropriate
songs the while, they filed into the
arbor, where Brother Blythe, who
having taken the stand, stated the
object of the meeting was not only
for the reunion of tho Sabbath
School but of the people OF the vi
cinity--old as well as young. He
then introduced the Presiding Elder
Rev. 5. l.. Cochran, who stated AT
the beginning that his remark,
would be directed to the children,
but it was one of the most able, in.
teresting and instructive address il
has ever been our pleasure to listen
TO. After dinner, which, by Il c
way, there was an abundance of, the
school reassemble, and spent an
hounin delivering reciiations, script
ure reading &c, showing the grea,
progress and good work our schools
are doing. As you favored US with

"The boys of to-day are the meh
OF Tomorrow" and are expected Ia
think and act as though they under
stood this to be fact. The 0nam-
by-pamby, goody-goody" kind of a
boy is apt to pick up and appropriate
a good deal of valuable information,
and, much as he may he despised by
his more vigorous brothers or asso-
ciates will be very apt to store it up
for future use, He is thus LAYING
the foundation for future usefulness
whilst they are neglecting their
work for the enjoyment of their
youthful frolics. This much, at all
events, in reply to an anonymous
correspondent who compares the
treatment of the steady and studlous
boy at home with that given his
more energetic but less faithful
brother who has his fun.
No boy can afford to stayt life on
~ wrong track, for so sure as he does,
he will tjld himself a long way off
the right before he is well aware of
it, The character is being made now,
and be the reputation what it may,

for all time. As therefore he now
builds, SO will the structure be, and
woe be to him who builds on false
foundation. We mus; not think we
can indulge in practices which will
not bear the light If day now, and
throw of their influence as we would

trary the power Of habit becomes
supreme and almost uncomfortable.
If therefore boys will be BOYS let
them by all means have this IN mind

Traces of Enormous Animals.
Hartford Times.I

4 vessel just arrived at the dock al
the foot of Potter street with a load of
heavy stone blocks taken from the Port.
land freestone quarry has among the
cargo some remarkable specimens of the
tracks of fossil beasts and birds that
once lived in this valley.
These slabs we're taken from a stratum
about six or seven inches thick, lying
at a depth of about eighty feet from
the top of the quarry. The enormous
skeletons still partly preserved under
many swamps in New York, New Jersey,
Pennsylvania and other States probably
represent q big beast of the elephant
species, which once roamed the Come &C.
ticut valley also. Here are his tracks
in relief. One, which measures fifteen
inches by eleven, and is larger than the
the track of any living elephant, shows
the impression of the toes very distinctly
and Enthusiastically, and also the reverse
representation of the impressions of the
inner muscular projections Of the bot
tom of the huge foot.
Of these tracks there are three on a
single slab five to six feet long and per
haps a yard or more wide and seven
inches thick. There is no mistakiDg the
tracks. They are evidently the track of
some huge beast-and of the elephant
kind, too-and not any mere acciden.
tai formation by other causes. On one
slab in this city near this creatures
tracks is a stony heap of his ordure,
known in geology as coprolites.
One slab bears the unmistakable tracks
of some big three-toed bird-seemingly
of the ostrich family. These tracks are
remarkable for being almost perfectly in
a straight line-as if the creature had
but one leg; no Indian could step straight
er. The stride is about a foot and a
half. However it may be with som.
other supposed "fossil bird tracks" in
the Connecticut valley sandstones, these
certainly are no tracks of the labyrinths
don or any other ancient frog; they are
bird tracks.
One slab bears the impress in relief o.
the longitudinal half of a tree trunk
seemingly, according to most observers
a hickory tree-for its shaggy bark ant
its very texture are wonderfully preserv
ed. The slab was ten feet long and bore
the cast of the tree all the way, but THU
specimen is but three feet leng-thar
part Of it having been cut off at tn,
quarry. 1t was evidently a large, full
grown tree, possibly foated down the
river from some place over which it cas-
it's shade in ages much farther preceding
the supposed birth of Adam than that il
supposed to precede modern times
