 The Prescott public school has closed. Examinations of it's differ. ent grades took up the whole of last week and was witnessed by quite a number of visitors. The pupils did credit to themselves and their teach CTS, and those who attended the en- tire week expressed great satisfac. tion at the result of the eight-month session.
 Rev. Mir. Vernon, State agent of the American Bible Society, failed to put in an appearance Sunday. The annual meeting of society here was ably presided over by President w. A. Hatley, and interesting pro- ceedings had. New officers for en- suing year elected-Mr Alex Vaughn as President Much good is being done in this good cause.
 Our Clayton scribe tells of re- markable set of resolutions the man of great wisdom, conceit and bigot- " tried to railroad through the sub Alliance there. It seems to us a des- perate scheme of last resort to defeat Democracy in this county-an effort to get the Alliance to endorse and help elect at least part of the U. l., ticket, in compromise or scheming way. But it didn't work. Read the deep laid resolutions of the Sol omon }.
 We see from the Morrilton papers that Rev. W. T. Box has entered actively upon his duties as pastor of the Baptist church at that place. Mir. Box was pastor of the Baptist church here for about four years, and great ly endeared himself to our people by his jealous Christian work and tidel- ity to principle. He never entered the quagmire of politics, bat when questioned was always outspoken for Democracy. His many friends here wish him success and happiness in his new home.

Bras we'll and wife; at Galveston, stopped at Beach Hotel, one of finest houses in the South-enioyed rare sport fishing; travelled over some fine country, going via the T. & P. and Gulf Colorado and Sante Fe Rys.-- both are finely equipped and well managed; corn and cotton doing we'll in Texas, though too much ram saw corn nearly waist high.
 In last weeks Dispatch appeared an article two-thirdS of a column in length, signed "Wheeler,' attacking us about a little squib ridiculing peti- tion circulated here some weeks since, asking Congress to pass bill to encourage and make it easy for land owners to mortgage their all for small loan. The slurs and islanders of Wheeler" against us bear the mule-cared marks of one 0. $. Jones, he great CD who thinks he knows everything. In his own estimation no statesman stands knee high Cleveland, Carlisle, Weaver, McRae and the like being but babes in wis don in comparison to him. We pass hy with coatempt his dirty filings. Thc farmers of this county know us as their true aad tried friend, and islanders coming from such a source are puerile. Such bigOts as Jones deserve nothing but digniIled, silent contempt, and such we have tried and will continue to accord him. Ia ! ta! MT. Solomon, you may rave on unnoticed.
