| VefSafy alter once ne IS QOWn Nothing, unless it be a further attack from the same source, will induce Us to say more upon this theme. We hope nothing may occur in the future to ruffle the kind feelings which we have so generally entertained toward Mr. Spradling. We wish him the fairest fortune in whatever pur- suit he may hereafter engage"
 "Mr Ben Tate, one of the men who left this county last spring, for the West, in the train with pr. Rudd, has written to his wife, (who did not accompany him) that, owing to disagreements be- tween it's members, the train has divided. Dr. Rudd, and we can not learn what other persons, kept on for Arizona; the Usreys, and perhaps others, turned to- ward Texas, while MT. Tate, the Messrs. Jackson, and probably others, are on their way back to this county. We shall give our readers fuller particulars regard ing this case as further infor- nation is received at this office.'
 "From the Leader, we see that on Monday evening of last week a number of the prominent citizens of Springfield met to provide means for improving roads lead- ing south from that city into northern Arkansas. They agreed that the wilderness route, that to Mountain Home and the one to Melville need working. A com- mittee of Springfield gentlemen has been appointed to survey the roads and estimate the cost of placing them in good condition. Remarks were made at the meet ing mentioned, which show how fully the live men of Springfield appreciate the patronage of Northern Arkansas. Our read CTS shall be informed of any new developments"
 A correspondent sends "A batch of news from Boone" from which we extract:
 "Stiffler Springs are about dry for want of cleaning out.'
 "Soren eyes are remarkably fashionable now a days"
 "Watermelons, apples, peaches and sweet potatoes are plenty"
 "Pleas. Speers, storekeeper for Hopper's still, passed through this place on Wednesday, going thither.''
 "Dr. Kirby, the U. s. examining surgeon, is now prepared to ex- anime all pensioners, at his office in this place. <"
 ''John Abey was sent to the penitentiary for one year, by the Marion county circuit court, for stealing a pistol. His was the only felony case tried"
 "About ten o'clock on Wednes- day night, the prisoners made an unsuccessful attempt to burn out. They burned a small hole near the grate on the east side. All safe yet"
 "Garrett Deshazo and w. F. Caldwell, of our town, paid a fly ing visit, the early part of this week, to Big Creek, Newton county. They report everything lovely there. The cotton crop is the finest ever raised in that To- cality, and is estimated by them as reaching three hundred bales. The mast on the mountain is very heavy, and what hogs the cholera left are in splendid condition. The sporting community amuse themselves by having shooting matches for beef, and seem to enjoy the sport. The prospects for a good crop of ginseng and | seneca Snake fOOG are very udt- tering. The health is much bet ter than it was some weeks ago. Garrett says he is now satisfied that Texas ponies of the clay bank persuasion are not fine race stock. .'
