At a public meeting in Bainbridge recently it
was unanimously resolved that the senator from
that district and the representatives for Decatur
county in the legislature be requested to use every
effort to secure the early passage of an act to with

company, and also an act granting permission to
the county board to issue bonds to build a bridge
on the Flint river at Bainbridge, and a public

Bainbridge Democrat: Last week the cotton fac
tory at this place succumbed to the inevitable and
ceased operations, for the present at least. Judge
Black, the sujierintendent and manager, left the
day before for Alabama, telling some of the opera
tives that he would not be back before fall unless
he made arrangements to procure cotton to run the
mill prior to that time. Tlie operatives, not liavs
ing been paid in some time, attached what stock
there was on hand, and quit work. The reason of
this suspension was from the total lack of means
on the part of Judge Black to run the mill; and
from what we can leam the parties in New York
wdio own the concern and at whose solicitation he
came to Bainbridge, ‘went back on him,’ to use a
slang expression and allows his drafts to go to pro-
tsst.
Macon Telegraph: Mr. Charles Norton, who has
traveled over the country, it is charged, as Charles
A. Carl, alias J. N. Swartz, alias Isaac Newton,
alias E. D. Minor, was brought hWc a Jncigtv8i<4-
rnons on a writ of habeas corpus! This warrant
from the executive department was attacked by
Mr. W. B. Hill, counsel for the prisoner, and dis
missed by Judge Simmons on the grouud that the
warrant was for Carl alias Swartz. The man new
under arrest calls himself Norton. The code re
quires that when a man is charged with being a
fugitive, and changes his name in this State the
fact must l>e stated in the warrant. That was not
done, and the warrant was defective and was dis
missed. The prisoner was, however, remanded to
the barracks, and detained on suspicion, to give a
reasonable t ime for the authorities of Harrisburg
to act.
ARKANSAS.
Lonoke, July 2.—To-claj’ has been one of great
enjoyment to the denizens of our prairie city. At
an early hour this morning a train arrived to bear
to Hill’s lake quite a large crowd of people, where
they were to meet others from the ‘City of Roses’
and partake of the barbecue prepared by the far
mers of Galloway. TT’hen the lake was reached
strains of sweet music were heard, to which echoes
answered the footfall of many dancers, and it was
not long before the Lonokers were whirling in the
waltz as happy as the hippiest. Dancing, boat
riding and archery practice were the most interest-
ng features of the occasion, aud, ha assured, they
were indulged in with no little zest by our care-
begone assembly. Hill’s lake is just mid way be
tween this point and Little Rock, on the Memphis
and Little Rock road, and. perhaps, the most de
lightful resort for pleasure-seekers that Arkansas
possesses. The grounds are 'rgam’y airaug-i
and as sylvan as those about far famed Como.
The danciug-hall is an extensive affair, also she dif
ferent salons attached, as the proprietors have
spared no pains in making their grounds first class
in every particular. On this occasion our crowd is
not so large as wc have seen present on similar oc
casions, probably not exceeding four hundred
souls. The committee who had charge of the pit.-
had well barbecued enough nice meats to have fed
one thousand men, and about noon the sumptuous
repast was spread and pi rtaken of, after which
dancing commenced, which lasted uutil near night
fall, when the train gave us the signal for depart
ure. We arrived home ail safe, feeling that we
were better for having spent such a day of social
enjoyment with our neighbors of Gallowaj. The
excursionists of the Arkansas press left yesterday
for the northern lakes. They ire the representa
tives of over eighty papers, am 1 expect to be gone
two weeks or more. They go by the way of St.
Louis and Chicago. Perhap the farmers of our
State have never had reason to be more thankful
than they now have. A great inanv are laying by
their cotton, w hich is needing rain just a little, but
without which would yield bountifully. There has
been more com planted than usual, and the indi
cations are that the amoi lit to be garnered will be
great.
