DES ARC COTTON MARKET.
Friday, January 11.
The Cotton market during the past week has
been one of the busiest of the season, and every
thing indicates a continuance of the good feeling.
The accounts received frojn all the principal cot
ton marts in the Union are highly favorable, and
it is thought the market must go up still more.
The rise at Memphis is fully jc. Our merchants
are anxious to buy, and are paying at least
more than last week.

Sam. IIale—Caj t. C. W. Coles—arrives at Des
Arc on Fridays, ft mi Napoleon, and touches here
for her downward mails on Mondays, from Jack
son port.
J Kanawha Valley—"apt. D. P. Pric —irrivti
at Res Arc from Memphis on Thursdays, and
touches here again on Saturdays for her down ward
mails, from Jacksonport.
The fine New Orleans and White River packet
Iatan, Capt. II. S Eaton in command, passed up
on Sunday last. The Iatan is the largest boat on
the river, and the only one going to the Crescent
City. On her last trip she carried over dOOO bales
of cotton down.
The Golden State, with Captain King on deck,
ami Mr. Russell in the office, arrived at our land
ing yesterday, on her way up. The Golden State
is fast becoming a favorite with our people, an 1
deservedly, too, for, with her accommodations
for freight and passengers, atxl the genial good
humor of her clerk, Mr. Russell, few boats can
compete with the Golden State.
The favorite freight and passenger packet Gen.
I’ike, Riley Jones in command, and Fleming
clerk, passed up Monday evening, and down cariy
Wednesday morning. The Pike is now a regu
lar Monday packet, leaving Memphis every Sat
urday evening. The Pike is an old favorite with
our people, and Riley Jones is everywhere, so to
say anything in praise of her is unnecessary.
The splendid freight and passenger packet Ad
ndral, Capt. Thomasson in command, arrived
yesterday on her way up, loaded as usual with a
goodly lot of freight and passengers. The Ad
miral is now a regular Thursday boat, leaving
Memphis on Tuesday evening. Between her and
the Golden State a fierce rivalry has sprung up.
They both leave Memphis the st»ne time, and race
all the way up. They are both crack boats. She
will be at our landing to-day on her wray down.
Shippers and passengers would do well to remem
ber the Admiral.
The United States mail packet Sam. Hale, Capt.
C. A\ . Coles in command, and Briscoe in the office,
came in on Friday morning last, on her way up,
and down the Monday following. She will be
here again this morning.
The U, S. mail boat Kanawha Valley, Price in
command, Butler Coles in the office, will be at our
wharf Saturday morning, on her way to Memphis.
A change has been made in the running of this
Wt, she making through trips to Memphis once
a week, instead of running only from Napoleon
to Jacksonport, and under this new arrangement
she leaves Memphis Tuesdays, upward, and Jack
eenport Fridays, on her way down.

a horrible afl dr in Harbin county, Texas.
'J'lierc wore two fjmiiys by tiie uames of
Mooney and Wilburn. rsepectively, in Na
cogdoches county, between which there was a
most bitter feud. A short time since the
Mooneys moved to < - I. Hardin county.
A few days ago "NVilimt with his three sons,
heavily armed, wen down to Concord.
Finduig Mooney in a store, they shot him,
wounding him badly.
Mooney then fled to his house. The Wil
burns followed him, and found him lying on
the floor, weltering in his blood, his head
sup.; ortc.1 by his little daughter. Here they
again shot him several times, and beat his
lifeless body with their pistols and bubs, and
the poor wife pleading for mercy at he assas
sin’s hands, was stricken down and most
shamefully abused. The citizens, being by
this time aroused, surrounded the A\ flburns,
and after a conflict, in which parties c;i both
sides were wounded, they took them prisoners
| and placed them under a strong guard for the
nigrht. in the morning the four were found
hanging each on a separate tree, .some distance
■ from town.
