jQrThere is always much encouragement
due enterprise and industry ; and particularly
now, when we stand so much in need of all
that tends to the advancetnent of our interest,
wo should encourage the endeavors of thoso
who are disposed to administer to our wants
and necessities, We on yesterday paid a visit
to the shop of Martin Shelter, and were some
what surprised at the completeness of his es
tablishment. In addition to his Wagon and
blacksmith shop lie has a first class Grist
Mill, which turns out as good corn meal as we
have ever Been, We were also shown a turn
ing lathe and saw in complete operation, by
Hie assistance of which, Mr. S. is enabled to
■do work in his line on the shortest, notice.
Surely such attempts to meet tho demands of
the times deserve encouragement, and we re
commend all who wish such work done as can
he dime by Mr. Shetter to give him a call,
feeling fully assured that they will be entirely
satisfied.

No Mom Cotton.—A correspondent, under
the signature of “Agricola, writes thus to the
Augusta Federal Union :
Permit me to say a word or two in your
columns on the subject of the present cotton
crop. Judging from the apparent uneasiness
mauifested in the newspaper press about the
growing crop, I should be led to conclude that
the Southern people believed that their salva
i *ion, politically and pccnniarly, depended on
the number of pounds of cotton they made
i this year. Permit me to say, sirs, that it is the
opinion, if there is not one pound of cotton
i raised this year in the eleven States excluded
f trmn the Union, itwouldbe the most, fortunate
thing that could possible happen for us. We
sre not going to starve if we make no cotton,
unless we are all fools. We ought to make
corn, wheat, rye, barley, peas, potatoes, tur
; nips, syrup, and dried fruits, of all kinds—
including wines from grapes, blackberries,
i muscadines, etc., etc., and we ought to raise
uattle,hogs, sheep, goats cbiekeus, turkeys,
ducks, etc., etc., lu short we ought, to be in
dependent of cotton. We can be if we choose.
If (rod Almighty was to send a blight upon the
Southern eottjitry and kill every cotton plant
below Masons and Dickson’s line, so that not
0Qe pound of eotton would be raised the present,
Jear, it. would be righteous judgment on the
Northera fanatics 'As long as we make
uotton to keep the cotton factories of New
I-ngland busy, just so long will they send such
men as Sumner apd Stevens to Congress. W e
u*n whip them Into tet ms by makiug no cotton.
"* will be their slavis until we do it, I.ot the
Paloaophic statesmen ponder and inwardly
d'lMt these thoughts
From the Chatanooga American Union,
we take the following, making some changes
to suit our locality.
The best thing business men and pro
perty holders can do to attract capital and
enterprise, and build up the city, is to ad
vertise liberally in the columns of their
local paper. What good will it do abroad
for us to gas and blow about superior ad
vantages, immense mineral resources, illim
itable coal fields, inexhaustible beds of iron
ore, tremendous water powers, broad tracts
of available timber, towering mountains,
beautiful landscapes, beetling crags, purl
ing streams, and blooming valleys—what
good will it do to descant upon these, if
our advertising columns fail to show that
we have an enterprising, wide-awake, thrif
ty population ? An advertisement is some
thing tangible—something that business
men and the capitalists can understand—
has an air of substance and reality which
higli-falutin, wishy-washy, simmy-dishy
editorials never possess. When a real keen,
wide-awake business man, who is in search
of investment for his skill and capital,
picks up a newspaper, his eyes naturally
turns, not to the editorial, but to the ad
vertising columns, and by glancing over
this he at once determines what sort of a
place it is published at, or whether it will
be worth while for him to loeomote in that
direction.
We throw out these suggestions for the
benefit of such as may be disposed to avail
themselves thereof, with the remark that
there is not a business house in Des Arc
which could not double its trade and pro
fits in three months by a liberal aud judi
cious system of advertising in the Des
Arc Citizen.

Tuesday, June 19, 1866. f
Cottox.—The market yesterday opened dull,
with no inquiries and very little offering.
Holders have withdrawn from the market, and
several determined to hold firm at Saturday’s
prices. The steamer’s news and German
difficulties have had a tendency to depress the
American markets. Transactions during the
day were few. In fact, we were unable to
learn of any legitimate sates suinoieiit to uasr
a market on. There were a few' sales made of
re-packed and low grades at irregular prices ;
but outside of this there was nothing doing.
Liverpool dates of the 8th give sales of Cotton
for the week at 7,000 bales; Cotton declined
from | to Id. Sales on Friday 1500 bales, the
market closing buoyant, with an advance of
to id. caused by advices from Java. Dis
patches from the New York market at noon
reported Cotton dull and nominal at 38 to 41c;
at 1 p. m. Cotton unchanged. The New York
market was excited and unsettled. We give

ARKANSAS ALMANAC.
WE PROPOSE TO PUBLISH ANNUALLY
a work entitled as above, similar to and
suggested by the "Texas Almanac,” a publi
cation well-known to many citizens of our
Slat,ft The first number will bo published
soon after the result of the August election,
so that the names of the officers elected may
be included.
It will contain the time, and other astrono
mical tables usitaly found in almanacs; but
the leading object, of the publication, is to
make it a repository of the largest possible
amount of useful information in regard to t he
State of Arkansas, embracing federal statistics
relating to, and annual statistics from all De
partments of the State, and also from all the
counties in the State; showing our progress
in population, wealth, and all the elements of
prosperity. Beyond this, it will be pur aim
to obtain all the scientific information io be
nnwllaman nnl.’n i<wl flpif'D
tific attainments, in relation to the geological
structure, mineral resources, soil, climate, rind
the agricultural and commercial advantages,
of each county in the State.
We shall also give sketches of the lives of
the nten who have figured prominently in the
past history of Arkansas. Another import
ant object will be, to place on record such
facts arid incidents in the history of the State,
as may be furnished from time to time by
living witnesses, or may be found iu public or
private documents, or in original correspond
ence of former days, that lie scattered in va
rious parts of the country. We hope our Al
manac will be the means of rescuing from ob
livion some of the most valuable materials for
a future history of Arkclrtsas.
It shall have nothing of a partisan charac
ter, and is open for contributions from all
quarters. It will be useful to all men, of all
professions, and may aid, materially, in at
tracting immigration to the State. A large
edition will be printed, and it Will be offered
at a price barely sufficient to pay expenses of
publication.
Newspapers in the State friendly fo the
publication, are requested to notice
