From Colt.

We have suppressed the desire of writing to you from this point for some tune, owing to the fact that we de- sired to give you correct information. Now, as things have assumed solid appearance, and a general transmogrifi- cation has taken place among us. We venture to sling the ink once more. will astOnish you by the very first an- nouncement: Colt wants to be in- corporal ted. A short time ago Will Hams < Lesca did the business of this place. To-day we have the following mercantile representation: Williams, Wolfe & Fisher on Main street, Ables. Temple X Carr on Meridian, while w.. A. Mchane cOntemplates erecting a handsome brick on the corner of Main and Meridian. Wm. Stone has pur- chased a lot and will erect d hand some residence, while L. F. Williams has lately built.
 Our hotel, under the management of k. Norton, IS doing a good business.
 Wm. Stone will before long erect a line sawmill here; in fact, the future or this town is hard to define Land that was worth SlO three months ago cannot be bought for S15.
 Profs. Gatten and Williams are teaching now, with large attendance.
 We are sorry to inform you that Dr. T. C. Strong is lying very ill at his home. It IS hardly expected he will ever recover.
 Winter, hoary winter. seems to be spreading her snow-clad robe around us, and the boys make the cotton tails" go further. Speaking of rab- bits, lot of us went out the other day captured l37 in ten hours. Can any one else beat that?

A. J Harrell is quite low with pneu- monia.
 Mrs Bradford is building a neat lit- tie cottage on Merriman street. R. A. Smith will occupy her present resi- dence.
 Mrs. Morris Block has purchased the residence lately occupied by Mrs. Lan- caster.
 J. R. P. Aldrich is in town, visiting his sister, Mrs Baxter.
 The church subject is being agitated again, but our people are divided in opinion whether to build a union church or each denomination build separately.
 We regret that Mrs. NJ. Block in- tends residing in Vanndale in the fu- ture. She will occupy the Deaderick residence.
 The mixed snow and sleet that fell yesterday has made the roads good for sleigh-riding, and, although accidents would happen, and here and there could be seen some trudging home on foot, still it has been enjoyed with a Zest.
 The new freight depot is quite a handsome building. The railroad offices will be moved there.
 The weather for the past few days has been something appalling. A regular blizzard struck us last Satur- day night, and very few were brave enough to venture out the next day.

James M. Stewart has St. Francis County Scrip for sale in sums to suit tax payers.
 Tho large store of Mesrss. V. $. Izard X Go. is filled from center to circumference with ss elegant a line of Dry Goods, Dress Goods, Ladies' and Misses Hats, Bonnets and Millinery, Gents ahd Boys
 Hats and Caps, Notions, Boots and Shoes, all sizes and kinds, Fresh Groceries - and, in fact, everything imaginable which IS kept in any first-class general merchandise establishment as any purchaser could desire 10 select from. Elegant new goods are ar irving almost daily, and they pur- pose 10 sell at prices that defy competition. The public generally is invited to call and examine their goods before purchasing.
 There is no one placed m a more responsible position than Drug gist. He must be competent to judge of the purity of Drugs and Chemicals, as the lives of his patrons greatly depend upon the prescriptions prepared or the Drugs sold by him. Knowing these facts, H. Evans X Co. select their line of Drugs with the great est of care, keeping in stock only those winch are pure and fresh. Their line of Toilet Articles, Soaps, Brushes, Sponges, etc, are only of the best. They carry all articles kept in a first-class Drug Store, which are sold at prices to defy competition. Call and examine their stock before purchasing else where.
 Mrs. K. Boyle has just Invoiced her large and beautiful stock of Dress Goods. Dress Trimmings, Hats, Bonnets, Trimmings and Ribbons, and finds sue has large surplus of Winter Goods. She does not propose to carry this surpiu. over, consequently, and in order 10 make a change in her business, she is now offering her entire stock positively at cost. She has many articles which wIll be sold for less than cost. Every lhlng must be sold, and at once. Ladies, and,Misses, Trimmed Hats at twenty. five cents and upwards. Mrs Boyle undoubtedly means what she says, and those desiring 10 purchase any article in her line, are now given an opportunity to buy at first cost. The ladies especially y are invited to call early.
 Tuesday, c. l.. EggIeston re ceived telegram 10 the effect that train No 3, west bound, tstruck a man at east end of L'Anguille station. and killed him. Esquire Geo. Pearson, summoned jury, had the remains brought to Forrest City, and held an inquest, the yer diet being to the effect that he came to his death by being struck by an engine, on the Memphis < Little Rock railway. There were no papers or letters upon him, except kind of diary. The name of Otto Plusse, Saxony. Germany, was found in two places in this. The man WAS seen here several days ago, and il is supposed he threw himself in front of the train in order to end life which had be- come burdensome to hIm. Without money or friends, and, perhaps, hungry, the poor tramp has gone to rest. May God pity him.

Silver King.

Banks and several other celeb rites have presented the Silver King to a Jackson audience but never to better advantage than Harry l.. Seymour, with his fine dramatic company, did last night at Robinson's opera house.
 The play IS too well known 10 our theatre goers to make de- scription necessary, hence we will only try in a measure 10 do the company justice in their excellent rendition of the interesting dra- matte gem. Harry Seymour, Tn the leading character, is as good If not better than we have ever seen before. His acting characterlzes him as a finished artist, and his interpretation of the Silver King was such AS to merit continued applause.
 Miss Warren, his leading lady, IS a clever actress and very winning, and we'll sustained her difficult role The whole support was exception ally good, we may say, and taken altogether the audience were unanl- nous m pronouncing the play last night one of the pret'iest and most interesting seen on the Jack son stage in some time.
 The Seymour company has made a hit in Jsckson.-Jackson Herald.

Their Eu.Iness Roominr.

Probably no one thing has caused
 such general revival of trade at C. F. IIinton's drug store as their giving away to their customers so many free trial bottles of Dr. Kings New Dis coyery for Consumption. Their trade is simply enormous in this very valu- able article from the fact that it always cures and never disappoints. Colds, coughs, asthma, bronchitis, croup and all throat and lung diseases quickly cured Y ou can test it before buying by getting trial bottle free; large size, Sl. Every bottle warranted.
