For President of our next Senate we are of the opinion that Judge l.. A. Byrne, of Texarkana. would stand head and shoulders above any member of the body if he would per init his friends to use his name as a candidate. Byrne's official career has ever been crowned with success. As Circuit Judge and Senator he es- tablished enyiable regulations, and if elected President of the Senate we feel quite sure he will make an excel lent presiding officer, Magnolia Banner.
 Quite a number of our exchanges endorse Judge Byrne for the place, among them, the Texarkana Inde- pendent, Fordyce Enterprise and others. Judge B. will make splen- did presiding officer. being well versed in the practical workings of parliamentary tactics, from four years service on the bench in this judicial circuit, We hope to see him made President of the next State Senate

We heartily agree with our neigh bor, the Washington Press, that the Arkansas Gazette should let up" as to the election frauds in Pulaski. It but gives the enemy club to cudgel democrats with in national politics. Denunciatory articles in one paper was sufficient. If the Gazette keeps up it's whining much longer, some people may suspect it as a case of thief halloaing catch thief.

Hon T C McRae has been renOm- mated for congress in the 3rd dis trict. His distrlct gave about 5.900 majority for Eagle in the recent elec- ton. He is opposed by J. A. Ans ley, of Prescott, who claims to be a Union Laborite. Of course Anslcy will not be known in the race.-Ar- kansas City Journal.
 Correct all around, Bro. Journal. Capt is now Il. l., but two years from now will doubtless be full lledged Republican, or else change again into some new-fangled so- called party. He will hardly be known in the race.

The next State legislature will have q Democratic majority of S5 on joint ballot, and we now predict that Hon. Jas. II. Berry will be reelected L, $. Senator, by large majority And it will b. T just reward for his good record, already made in the Senate. Although MT. Berry has held many important offices, in the gift of the people, he has uniformly filled them with credit and entirely satisfactorily to his constituency Another remarkable and commenda- ble fact i>. his public career and pri- vate life is without spot or blemish. Senator Berry justly holds a first place in the affections of the whole people of Arkansas.

the better enabled to ward off the
danger and postpone the moment
when surrender becomes inevitable.
In many instances the Inherent
strength of the body sufiices TO en-
able it to oppose the tendency to-
ward death. Many however have
lost these forces to such an extent
that there is little or no help. In
other cases little aid to the weak
ened Lungs will make all the differ
encc between sudden death and
many years If useful life. Upon
the first symptom of a Cough, Cold
or any trouble of the Throat or

A reporter for the DEMOCRAT in
going the rounds of the town look
ing up local happenings for this
week issue, was particularly struck
with the handsome residence of Su-
pervising Architect Holmes, situa-
ted on the corner of Lawrence and
Congress streets, which is a beauti-
ful specimen of modern architecture.
1t has recently undergone some re-
pairs, most notably, new dress of
paint at the hands of Mr.. William
A. Davis, and the taste and work
manship displayed will compare ia
vorably with residences in cities Of
more pretensiOus magnitude. Upon
inquiry of Mr.. Davis, we were in
formed that he used the LOngman
& MARTINEZ prepared paints, which
are fast gaining favor, many OF our
home mechanics prelerring them in
place OF lead and oil. These
paints are winning world wide
reputation for their beauty OF finish
and stability, besides being great
saving to consumers, every gallon
Of which is sold under positive
guarantee. Mr.. Seibert, the polite
and efficient clerk of Messrs. Cooke
Il Washington, tells us that he has
already sold this season several hun
dred gallons, and buyers are more
than pleased with the results at
tanned from their use. We say to all
who are thinking of identifying and
adjoining their homes to visit the
hardware emporium of Messrs. Cooke
& Washington and get quotations
on paints, where you will also find
one of the largest stocks Of shelf and
hardware cutlery to select from this
side of New York City.

KearneysyiIle Letter.

Il
Our little village calmly sleeps
its midsummer slumber and there is
little to disturb the InonotOny of its
dreams save the loud shrill whistle
of the locomotive as it constantly
rushes past, or the busy sound OF
the creamery in operation, as the
golden butter is made and shipped
to distant consumers. The harvest
is long since ended and the reapers
are busy bringing home the
sheaves." The yield seems heavy
and abundant throughout this en-
tire section.
During the untimely warm days
we paid visit to the cool and re-
freshing banks of the "Wee Potomac
ever smiling" Col. VIM. A. Nor
gan and Capt. Lee Fl. Moler with
their families and party offriends
are at their annual camp on the river
and enjoying the fine bass fishing
that it's waters abound i'll. The
tents are arranged in uniform order
and the campery amuse themselves
by boating and fishing, swinging In
hammocks or RECALLING themselves in
the bath of the clear cool waters OF
the river.
On July 9Th Senator John Z. Ken
ma, of w. Va, and Congressman
McMilin, of Tennessee. were our
distinguished guests to a dinner In
camp. The table was a marvel in
itself, being adorned by two beautl
full bouquets that were presented to
the Senator the evening before, after
his address to the Democrats of
Shepherdstown. The opportunity
was afforded us to see sunset up
on the Potomac and indeed nothing
could be more picturesque. The
blue mountains and cliffs, together
with the mad rush and roar of the
river ever hurrying onward, LENT
enchantment."
We halted beside the spot where
the unfortunate Corn Exchange Reg
iment was driven over the bluffs,
and where many lost their lives,
even to this late day are found
wedged between rocks and boulders,
sleeping their last long sleep. And
here close by is Boteler's or Black
ford's ford, where Lees army, tired,
worn and jaded, crossed the river
after the famous and bloody battle of
Antietam. Here where the waters
are clear, are found bullets and
shells where the waves have rolled
for more than twenty years. When
the silent stars were shining and we
lay to rest beneath the canvass avn
ing, naught is heard save the low
tapping Of the waves rs they glide
in to kiss the rocky shore.

No sound save the rush of the river"

THE JupGEsHIP.

Without disparagement to either
of the gentlemen named for the con-
sideration of the primary electors on
Saturday, the 22nd inst, for Judge
of this Judicial district, there is a
lawyer, who has never sought office,
because he believes in the true doc
trine-that the office should seek the
man, and that man is Jos. TRAPNELL.
As to Mr.. TRAPNELL's ability as a
profound jurist, there can be no ques-
ton. His long practice, and his
laborious application to legal re-
search, has peculiarly fitted him for
Judge, and, above all, his dispatch
in the business of the Courts, will.
tell in the saving of taxes to the
people of the district. JURAT.
