"IN reference to the question of union between the Northern and Southern Presbyterian churches. the Louisville Presbytery puts in the following protest:
 Until our northern brethren can see their way clear to adopt the policy of organizing the colored people of the northern states into separate churches, presbyteries and synods of their own and until there shall be clearer and fuller understanding brought to bear upon the minds of many of our people in reference to their interpretation and application of those points of our com mon ecclesiastical that now deal with secular and political questions we judge that quiet peace and prosperity of both churches will be best secured by ceasing to agitate or prosecute the question of organic Union; at least for the present.

Or course there is some little racket raised by the admission of General Jos. F.. Johnston, of the Southern army, as contributing member of the G. A. R. This was to be expected, more than from any other reason, that the party is in q drowning condition. It is true that Johnston's military career was not overly brilliant, and that, in the long run, he did comparatively little in the cause of the south, yet the fact that he was a southern General is sufficient to raise dust among those men up north who got mad after the fight was all over. The case of Ingalls,, their own vice President, seems to have es- capped their memory just at this time but then, you know, comparisons are odius-under certain 'sarkumstances." :"

WEDNESDAYS Arkansas Democrat gives the following statement of the standing, so far, of the gubernatorial candidates: Fletcher, eight counties f0rty-seyen votes in the state conven, ton; Eagle, four counties, thirty-nine votes; Fishbaek, four counties, thirty one votes; Rector, four counues, seven teen votes; Hughes, five counties, twenty-one votes. Fishback stands third as far as delegates have been in- structed. They are all good men, but we think Fishbaek is the man to have it. He is statesman, scholar; he has spent many years in the service of his country, battling for what he thought to be good. Let St. Francis instruct for Fishback.

The Arkansas Press Asso citation met at Texarkanna, Arkansas, Wednesday, May 2d, 1888, at 9 a. m., and proceeded to business. The session lasted three days.
 Leaving Forrest City Tuesday morn ing, May 1st, accompanied by Mrs. E. Landvoigt was transported to Brink Icy over the old reliable, now, Little Rock X Memphis railway. The rolling stock on this road is iirst-class in every particular. the service is splendid, the road bed smooth and the employees as kind. attentive and courteous set of gentlemen as ever met.
 Arriving at Brinkley we made close connection with through express and passenger on the St. l.. Ark, x Tex. Ky, or the great Cotton Belt Route, to Texarkana. This road carries one through some of the finest timber country in the world. The pine forests are especially fine and the saw mills and lumber merchants are very numer- ous along this road. In every village, town or city through which we passed, we saw the signs of prosperity. New houses are being erected by the hun dreds, all hands are busy and apparent ly happy. At Pine Bluff we dined, and we got splendid dinner at very req sonable prices, at the regular railroad eating house.
 Nothing happened of any impor- tance, until we reached McNeil, where we got supper. After eating and while waiting for the train, I engaged one or the natives in conversation. l asked as to the politics of the county, he re- piled, Three democrats to one any thing else.n I asked several other questions as to climate, population yield of different products, but when l asked him 'Is the county wet or dry he capped the climax by answering, That they had just had very good rain, and consequently he presumed the county was wet"
 We reached Texarkana at 4:30 o'clock a. m. and were met at the train by All derman Sweeney, one of the reception committee, land cleverer, more ac- commodating, or more polite gentleman we never met,) and was escorted to the hotel de Cosmopolitan, where we got a wink or two of refreshing sleep, and a good breakfas.
 At II o'clock Mrs. Landvoigt was driven to the residence of MT. and Mrs. B. Pinson, where she was most hosplt- ably entertained, during our stay Ill that city. No pains were spared to make our visit pleasant and profitable. was quartered at the Cosmopolitan, where that clever host W. H.

Deafness Can't be Cured.

by local applications, as they can not reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure Deafness. and that is by constitutional remedies, Deafness is caused by an inilamed con dition of the mucus lining of the Eustachain Tube. When this tube gets inflamed. you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition. hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the lnucus sur faces.
