A LOTTERY IMtlZE.
Chicago, 111., March l,-'75
Delos Champlin, a member of
the Chicago Board of Trade, holds j
10,075, the number which drew :
the second prize, $38,000, in the
Louisville lottery.
The other day, if we mistake :
| not, the Gazette claimed that a
! man by the name of Martin of:
| that place, held ticket 10,075 and
j had drawn the $38,000 prize. How
| many more men hold this ticket? |
—“Millet Seed.”—We have re
j ceived a very interesting commu
nication from this gentleman, but
owing to its late arrival, cannot
get it in our paper until next
week. Will always be glad to
i hear from you, “Millet Seed.” j
And. in this connection, we will
say, that in our first issue we iu
1 vited communications from all our
farmer friends on agricultural
! subjects, and if they do not avail
themselves of the use of our col
umns, it is not our fault.
—The railroad meeting Mon
day was attended by the principal
business men of this place and
Dover, and the greatest enthusi
asm and harmony prevailed. The
committees appointed to solicit
subscriptions and view the route
of the road from here to Harrison
were excellent selections. There
is no greater civilizing agency'
than railroads, and we heartily1
wish this new enterprise success.
The professional men of Rus
sell villi; are not very numerously i
represented in the advertising col
umns of the Dkmockat. The
cards of Col. Dan 15. Granger, one
of our best lawyers, and l’rof. llad
dock, the popular educator, are j
the only professional advertise- [
incuts that grace our columns, j
Doit t think, however, that they1
arc the only professional gentle- j
men we have, for we have many 1
I others—Doctors, Lawyers, Den-i
lists and Teachers—and as soon
as times get a little easier we ex
pect to show as fine an array of ;
professional talent in the adver- j
tisc'tnents of the Dkmockat as
any town in Arkansas can boast
of but hold! by grip, we came very
i near telling a small sized “fib,-’

—A Mean Law.—The LL S.
Postal Laws allow an editor to
stamp or print on newspaper
wrappers or the wrappers of other :
publications “specimen cop}', with i
compliments of the publishers,’’
but will not allow a publisher to j
write the same with pen and ink. i
All editors don’t happen to have a j
hand stamp handy at all times, and j
if for convenience and economy i
they prefer to write “specimen j
copy” on their publications, we
can’t see what difference it would
make to the government. We
think this is condescending to
verv small things—we think it is
niggardly and mean.
—We take pleasure in calling
the attention of the public to the
card of Messrs. Harrell & Foster.
Dr. Harrell is too well known to
require any word of commenda
tion from us. Mr. Foster is a
young man of most exemplary hab
its, has been a close student for a
long time and lias .fust returned
from medical college and cast his
lot among us. The new linn has
our best wishes.
What lias the citizens of Darda
nelle done to be persecuted so, on
railroads brother James?—f Inde
pendent.
Firstly, we did not know and j
had never before heard anybody
intimate that they’ had done any
thing; secondly, we have heard no
complaint of persecution from the
citizens of Dardanelle. What are
you driving at Dick?

We understand F. M. Brumley |

Our citizens will remember that
there are three of these despera
does, Bill, Alex and France, and
there is, undoubtly, no trio of
grander scoundrels out of jail
than they. We know of no one
here who had any dealings with
them who did not get badly bit.
For a continuation of this, we re

Most of our farmers are ready
and will commence .planting corn
the soonest moment the ground is
in good condition to work.—[Des
Arc Citizen.
At least $'2000 have been sent
from Augusta for investment in
the Louisville lottery. Three or
four of our citizens are confident
of drawing the $100,000 prize to
day.—[Augusta Bulletin.
Every day we sec some new
comer to our vicinity and county
from the north and west. We no
ticed two car loads of fine stock,
poulry, etc., yesterday, belonging
to a gentleman who has purchas
ed a large body of land south of
this place. Now that matters
have been settled, we expect a
large immigration.—[White Riv
er Journal.
We learn from all parts of the
county of tobacco barns going up.
Those well posted, say Benton
county will raise a hundred thou
sand dollars worth of tobacco this
year. In tiiis connection we
would mention the result of Mr.
Mallory’s experience in tobacco
last year. He had quite a large
number of acres rented to tobacco
raisers, and realized on on aver
age of TWENTY FIVE DOLLARS AN'
acre rent for his land.—[Weekly
Advance.
An election will be held in Izard
county on the loth day of March
next, to locate the county scat.
Considerable excitement prevails
in regard to the matter. We hope
that La-Crosse, which, in our
opinion, is the most enterprising
place in the county, will secure
the location.—[Batesville., limes.
Old Uncle Jhnmie Kirkland,
well known to our old citizens,
was found dead on Wednesday
last in an old house on the moun
tain, in the eastern suburbs of
town. He has been missed some
eight or ten days, and it is sup
posed he had been dead several
days when discovered. A bottle
of iaudanaum was found by his
side, and the supposition is that
the old man was sick, lay down
there, and chilled to death.—Fay
etteville Democrat.
LEGAL PUBLICATIONS.
Below wc give the act regula
ting the publication of legal ad
vertisements in newspapers.
It will be seen that it is a great
improvement on the old law, as
it allows the clerks and sheriffs of
the counties to select the news
paper in which they will insert
their legal advertisements. They
can now publish in any paper
having a bona fide circulation in
their counties; provided that if
there is any paper published in
the county, it shall have the print
ing. We would here remind all
partiee concerned that the Demo
crat has a good and rapidly in
creasing circulation in Pope, Con
way, Searcy, Newton and Van
Buren counties, and as there is
no paper published in either of
these counties, we respectfully so
cicit the legal printing of those
counties. The law reads us fol
lows :
An Act to regulate the publication
of Legal Advertisements in News
papers.
Be it Enacted, etc.:
Section 1. That when any le

county, haring a bona fide eireu
lation therein, which shall have
been regularly published in said
county for the period of one month
next before the date of the publi
cation of said advertisement.
Sec. 2. If there be more than
one such newspaper published in
a county, then the officer, litigant
or individual, (or the attorney of
record or agent of such person,)
whose duty it is to cause or direct
such publication, may select any
newspaper authorized by the pro
viso to section one hereof, as the
medium of publication of such
advertisement.
Sec. ii. If there bo no such
new spaperr printed in a county,
and there be occasion for publish
ing any such legal advertisement,
then the person whose duty it is
to cause such publication to be
made, as aforesaid, may select any
newspaper printed in the state,
having a circulation therein,
which is duly authorized to pub
lish the same.
Wee. 4. The|affidavit of any ed
itor, publisher or proprietor, or the
principal accountant ot any news
paper authorized by this act to
publish legal advertisements, to
the etteet that a legal advertise
ment has been published in iiis
paper for the length of tin e and
number of insertions it lias been
so published, with a printed copy
of such advertisement appended
thereto, subscribed before any offi
cer of this state authorized to ed
minister oaths, shall be evidence
of the publication thereof, as
therein set forth: Provided That
no editor, publisher, proprietor
or principal accountant of a news
paper shall be required to make
such affidavit or deliver such
proof of publication to the person
ordering the said advertisement
published, until tite cost of said
affidavit and the legal printer’s fee
therefor shall have been first paid.
The printer’s receipt for the cost
of proof and fee for printing shall
lie attached to such proof of publi -
cation, and the amount thereof
shall ho taxed and collected as
other costs of the case.
Sec. ft. Any officer who levies
on goods or chattels, lands or ten
ements, or is charged with the
duty of selling the same by virtue
of any writ of execution, may re
fuse to publish a notice of sale
thereof by advertisement in a
newspaper, until the party for
whose benefit such execution is
issued, his agent or attorney, shall
advance to such officer so much
money as shall he sufficient to dis
charge the legal fees of the prin
ter for publishing such notice.
Sec. 7. The act approved May
30th. 1874 entitled “An net in
regulate the publication of legal
notices, etc., and section 4031,
4032, 4033. 4034 and 4035 of
