Indications of Better Prices.

1t is now generally admitted that the cotton crop will fall short of the first estimates. It is asserted 5y some authorities that it will not go over 6,500,O0o bales. The market closed last week with a net advance of forty points, as compared with the quotations of the proceeding week, and the chances are there will be further advances this week
 It is admitted the upward move ment of last week was inspired by lighter receipts than had been ex- pected, and if the shortage in the crop is confirmed as now seems prob able, prices will undoubtedly go considerably higher. A great deal depends upon the report which will be made by the government on the goth inst. Tit should confirm the prevailing opinion that the crop will fall short of 100000 bales prices will advance rapidly within the next ten days. What the planters of the South need most is better prices, and we trust the indications will hold good. Little Rock Demo  erat,

HIGH CARNIVAL AT ST, LOUIS.

The Metropolis of the Mississippi Valley again presents @ program of fall festivities that for brl1aney and variety outshines the carnival cities of the world.
 Paris, the most magnificent city on either continent, has for ages held the proud title oi "the premier carnival city of the WOrld.' How ever, during the last ten or twelve years an American rival of no mean preteusions has con tested for that high honor, and to-day St. LOnis holds what Paris so reluctantly rellnquish ed. the title of "the carnival city of the two oont- uents.H
 Not content with the successful exhibitions of previous years, the Autumnal Festivities Asso- citation has arranged . program for 1883 that for brilliancy and variety will be difficult to improve upon. The first of the great attractions the St. Louis Exposition will throw its doors open to the public September 9th and continue until october 2lst. The world renowned sousa's Band has been engaged by the management, which in itself Is a sufficient innducement to crowd the magnificent building during every concert.
 Special attention has been paid to the street iluminatiOns, and on the evenings Of August l2th l7th 24th and 8lst September 7th, l4th, 2lst and 2sth, and october 3d, 9th, 18th and 10th, the most magnificent display yet attempted will greet the eve of the fortunate visitor, electricity playing a prominent part. The evening of De- tOber Sd the Yelled Prophet and his followers will parade through the principal thorough fares, and immediately after the great ball, which has received considerable prominence throughout the world, will be held.
 The 33d great St. Louis Fair and Geological Gardens, October 2d to 7th, will be the crowning week of the carnival season. This institution has no peer and is known in every land where the footprints of civilization exist The Mis- souri Pacific Railway and Iron Mountain Route being distinctly ot lsouis lines, and hay ing at ail times the interests Of the city in mind have made a remarkably low round trip rate from all points on the entire system Co St. Louis and return during the festivities.

The Adyancine Snnth.

It becomes piainer every day that in spite of laws or the lack of them, the South is now on the verge of an era of greater and more substantial prosperity and progress than she has ever known. In the first place, manufacturing is steadily increas ing. iron mills, foundries and ma chine works are becoming more in numbers and larger in output. The fact that, during the stringeney of the past year, when Northern fac tories were closing their doors, and Northern mills suspending, South ern manufacturing enterprises have continued to prosper, has not failed to have it's significance. It has con vinced capitalists of the advantages of Southern investment Municipal authorities, also,are gradually learn ing that it is not wise policy to bleed every corporation that comes to cities, and that it is more far-sight- ed and truly economical to aid and further the plans of investors.
 Besides this, we cannot hide the fact that reverses themselves have redowned to the advantage of the South. The failure of cotton to bring sufficient money has forced Southern planters to raise other products. These forced experiments will now become permanent, since necessity has proved the value of them. The stress of money and diff ficulty of credit has compelled the farmer to raise the meat and sup plies he has been accustomed to buy. The farmer, through the hard tutor ship of distress, has learned the glo- rious fact that his farm is self-sup- porting. and that cotton may be simply a surplus money getter after necessities are supplied. Best of all, the present crop is not made on Dor rowed money. It is not plastered with mortgages. The south, for the first time since the war, is again on a cash basis, and can maintain it for the future. The planter has learn ed that he is not primarily a mer- chant and incidentIy a farmer, and the whole section has discovered that borrowing can be dispensed with. Then even without consider ing the beneficial laws which are sure to come in little while, is it not plain that the days of sorrow in the south are oyerE All we need now is hope, courage and energy. What we need is to depend more up on strong arms and firm wills than upon any possible legislation, and stop talking and sighlng over hard times" which will no longer exist, and which have brought rich bless ings with them Memphis Com mercial.

RussellviIle-Her Business and Her
 Future.


 Written by Prof. J. c. Smyth in Russellyille Graded School Catalogue :
 Russellyille is one of the largest towns in the great Arkansas Valley between Fort Smith and Little Rock. It is sur rounded by the finest of farming lands all of which are underlaid with abund- ant semi-anthracite coal almost if not, equal in quality to the best Pennsylyan- ia coal, the demand for which is already greater than the supply. This interest Is already sufficiently developed as to give positive assurance of the fact that the town has a bright future. The farm products of these fine lands are all ready being changed from cheap cotton to more paying vegetables and fruit crops, because here is permanent and ever increasing market.
 In point of health, no town command ing such rich resources is so favorably located on dry, well drained ground as Russellville. It's altitude is near three hundred feet above the Arkansas River, three and one half miles distant With such an altitude and natural drainage together with an atmosphere entirely free from swamp-taint and miasma and with water, good and abundant, it's healthfulness is fully assured and attest ed by the experience of her citizens.
 Situated on the Fort Smith and Little Rock Railroad, about midway between, and at the probable crossing oI the projected North and Souri Railroad and with such quantities of coal it requires little business sagacity to read the bright future, just dawning upon this town as 8 manufacturing center. Yet, that the growth of this town may be gradual and healthy, property is held at reasonable prices commensurate with the solid fu- ture of the place. With this persistent course stagnation or reaction in prices is immposs1ble, thus giving assurances of safety for all investments,
 Then her high standard of social and moral advantages bids fair to make Rus sell an educational center. Here is a Graded School the peer of any in the State, besides the M E. Church, South. has already decided to locate ill this town Training School of High Grade for the Arkansas Conference. Thus the educational interests are assured and the business of the town is in the hands of such men of enterprise and push as may be found in the following pages.

 again placed me here. l mean in charge ofthe DEMOCRAT In 1886 | left the place I now resume, Iknew then l had parted. with a place of great responsibility. l know now that I have formed company with just that sort of a place Hunting an easy, agreeable position, I should never hunted in this quarter, and yet it is not without It's pleasures, one of which is the appreciation of good men when you have done the best you can. It is natural for a sense of misgiying to mingle with a man s experience in assuming re- lation like this. That is the case with me now.
 Public interests have been grave ever since my boyhood, but their gravity is larger now than ever be- fore, or so they seem. Perhaps it is the larger stroke of accommodating time which gathers force according to the square of the distance meas ured. and delivers it's blows with ae- celerated velocity However, this may be. for myself l can say l have felt the force of these blows suffici- ent to make me willing to stand with the common people of our country in trying to turn the drift so as to catch in the common interests of the common people and shape them into to the public policy of our country. I want to put my voiceinto the cho- rus and help swell it loud enough tomake it heard in the capital of the nation, and needed when heard. Ifyou understand from this a friend of silver is in charge of the DEMO GRAF, and also an advocate for the repeal of the ten per cent tax on state banks, the repeal of the fed eral election laws, and friend of tar if reduction, you understand right. On these questions the DEMOCRAT shall lose none of it's prestige ex- eept what is lost on the score of the weakness of it editor. Having talk ed to the people of this county for five years in this relation before, they will pretty well understand what to expect when they learn that once more I am in charge of the DEMOCRAT. An earnest, honest eff fort will be made not to depreciate it's high standard of morals, neither to mar the escutcheon of it's democ- racy, nor yet to lower the degree ot its dignity in any respect. No eff fort shall be spared to hold it ill nearness to the hearts of the people.
 To the press l would say l left your ranks five years ago with a high sense of your calling. l come back with a ready heart and hand, and with that sense not in the least abated. I feel it an honor to strike hands with you once again in the bonds of an editorial association. Let the remark about the latch string be remembered when you pass this way.
 This is enough to say.
