. TANGIBLE FORM.
The Arkansas Southern Railway Making Progress in North
 Arkansas.

1t looks now like we have some thing tangible in the way of rail road news. NJ. ". Clay, president of the Arkansas and Southern Com pany, proposes to build belt road
 through the northern counties of Arkansas provided Boone county will give him 10,00 acres of deeded land and 5000 acres of mineral land. He asks of Newton county p, GOO acres of mineral land and in sures us road on these terms. Boone county has very near raised the required amount; Newton can
 certainly come up to her require ments. The matter of railroad is getting to be one of much interest and it looks now to be q certainty.
