I examined it to-day and have made arrangements to have it leveled down, so Messrs. County Commissioners, you need not further trouble yourselves. While the crossing was not :;ood it was not extremely bad, requiring only a little judicious driving to straddle the rut. If the writer will take his buggy and aiart where the Shelton depot and ferry road leaves the Columbia road and drive to the depot and then to the ferrv r.:: J return and is not shaken cut :.:5 sock?, something will be the mailer. Wo have an excellent Board of County Commissioners but they can not make everything right in a winters time. Betwccu now and the first of next November wc shall see the public roads in a good condition; so people cannot only go to Rock Creek Church, but will find no trouble in travelling to the county seat.

Wc had quite a lln>h of honored and noted visitors to our $::;te last week. President Harrison, on his tour to the South West, stopped over in Little Rock on the 17th and visited the c.ipitol and other public buildings, :di of J which were beautifully decora!ed in ] honor of his visit, afier which he do-1 < livered a short address to an immense throng of people who had gathered there to see him. In his address the President paid the people of Arkansas some very flattering compliment?, and expressed his high appreciation of the rova' reception tendered him by the citizens of Little itoeK in ::n elegant and impressive' mam-cr. Jay Gould with hi* two sons and senrai prominent raiiio^j officials were out last week looking aires* his railroads, of which he ii:ts a .-c:?:v in this part of the country.

I A good deal of the corn has been j worked out, and some have cotton i i ready for chopping. The corn crop j ' was very short here last year, and at 2 least three-fifths of the corn now being : used by the farmers in this section is ! < brought from Kansas and Missouri, j 1 and costs the consumer from 90c to j ] SI per bushel cash. This has caused a i j rustling among the dry bones and the j acreage in corn this year will be i< ore than doub'e what it was last. ] The fruit crop though slightly i;:- J iured bv late frosts, will be very irood, J especially the apple and berry crop, j, which promise to be abundant. Oar part of the country is now en-! ] joying a season of unusual good health, ] so much so that our doctors are com- 1 plaining of its being distressingly healthy. If any of Ihe Fairfield boys want to have a real good time sporting during . the dull summer season, come out here and you can have it.
