OURSELVES.
Wo have in the lust few months
treated almost every subject of which
wo have knowledge, carefully refrain
ing front any mention of ourselves,
and wo hope that our readers will par
don us for mentioning self in this issue.
Tt 1* not our intention lo complain for
w e have nothing (0 complain of. Our
friends have helped us greatly iu our
enterprise, and to them we are thank
ful. We started out over a year and a
half ago with the determination to give
to the people of Prairie county a good
new spaper, and we think it no flattery
when we say wo have done it. The
benefit of the country, its advancement
and improvement have always been to
us objects of the greatest importance,
and ns an advocate of such measures as
had for their end the bettering of our
condition, the Cittern has always been
heard to speak. While we do not pro
pose to dictate to tiny one what the)
shall or shall not do, we can say we
think it the duty of every man to read
—read newspapers—and above all to
read home papers. No man ever yet
lost anything to hinptelf or family l»y
subscribing for a newspaper; it is a
benefit to iiis family, a valuable school
hook to his children, and a source of
pleasure and information to himself
As the season is now here when almost
every man can, without Inconvenience,
pay a reasonable price for a paper, we
modestly present the Citizen as a pa
llor—a good paper—and one in every
way worthy of his ptplroiiagc and w ell
worth the price for which it Is fur
nished. "We would not devote out at
tention entirely io soliciting subscrip
tion, but would throw in a word ortwo
for advertisers. The trade of the
White river valley is well worth con
tending for, and there is no mtf&ns of
securing trade, so sure ns advertising
in it well circulated newspaper. Our
paper, in this particular, claims superi
ority over all others published on
White river, os it circulates it, almost
ererv county iu the State, and from
11»U consideration is a valuable inrui
tint tlirongh which the business of its
patrons is made known to the people.
Our columns are already well filled
with advertisements, but we have
room for more and ask our friends to
consider our claims and judge if we
will not be mutually benefited by their
patronage.
Sterling Price is dead. The hero
of many battles sleeps his last deep
and his friends will sen las kind face
no more on earth. The multitude who
with him struggled so hard for the hi
tear at this sad intelligence, for they
all loved him in the time of trial ns a
child loves a father. lie died after a
protracted illness in the city of Saint
Louis. This is sad intelligence and wc
record it with pain for no man shared
the love of those who knew him more
than Sterling Price. An exchange com
menting on his death says;
“If, in a military point of view, he
were not great, lie was eminently a
good man; and ilie kindness of his na
ture shone conspicously through the
campaigns which he was called upon
«o partiepate. lie had obtained the
highest honors in his own State, and
had a hold upon the affect ions of the
people of Missouri, that time cannot
eradicate. He lmd long suffered from
a chronic complaint, which at last over
mastered the iron constitution which
it had assailed, and the Venerable pa
triot, whose largo heart was devoted to
his people, will throb no more. He
sleeps where the objurations and abuse
of political foes cannot disturb his rest,
and there Is a mausoleum in every true
heart to enshrine his memory.
The election for the purpose of
determining whether or not the people
of Arkansas will have a convention to
frame a Constitution, and reorganize
the State government, will be held on
the 5th day of next month.

The Coming User..—Temperance
prohibition is to bo the next issue of
the extreme Radicals. The Massachu
setts State Temperance Convention has
resolved that “as the great work ot
emancipation is perfected, we recog
nise the necessity of engrafting the
principle of prohibition upon all organ
ization* that shalicontinue to direct and
control Hie country.” Senator Wilson
made a speech, in w hich he expressed
his honor ivt the idea that any man
should be licensed to sell liquor, and j
Dr. Eddv declared that “no man who j
is not pledged to prohibition can oceu-,
py the gubernatorial chair in massachu
*etU.’’The preaching of temperance in
all things is commendable; hut expo-;
rlewn has demonstrated tout prohibi
tion by legislation is an incentive to
drunkenness ansi crime. But if it w ore
conducive to good morals, we have yet
to learn lhal Stale governments arc or
ganized as agencies for controlling the
social habits or political principle* of a
people.—[Memphis Bulletin.

A Word or two About tho Mute
School.
Dear Citizen It is a fact not gen
erally kuowu to the people of Arkan
sas, that the citizen* of Little llock
appropriate one hundred dollars per
month for the support of a Mute
School, which was established at this
place last July, which appropriation is
intended to continue until such time
as the State shall step In to patronize
it. Two deaf and dumb young ladies,
resident in this city, were glad to avail
themselves of the advantages offered
I by the school by entering its wails on
the Dili July, and have continued to at
■ tend ever since. Their progress is
; wonderful, quite; as witness the fol
lowing hits of composition :
“It rains. It rained. Ahoy Is sick.
A hoy was sick. A girl drinks hot
milk. A girl drank hot milk. A hoy
is sick, lie cannot go to school. A
boy was sick. lie could not go to
school. A hoy has no money. lie
wishes to have some money to buy an
apple. Ilis father gives him some
money. Ho buys an apple and eats it.
A boy had no money. He wished to
have some money to buy an apple. His
father gave him some money. He
bought an apple and ate it.”
A boy has bought a hoof!; and will
1 give it to a girl, who will read it. A
i hoy had bought a hook, and would
; give it to a girl, who would read it.”
^It is raining. It was raining. It
has rained. It had rained. Tt w ill
rain. It would raiti. It may rain. It
might rain. It will not rain to-day I
think. AVc expected it would rain yes
terday, but it did not. AA'c wish it
would rain to-day; it has not rained
for so long a time.”
One of the pupils lias hv this time
acquired the ability to write an easy
letter. The following is her last :—

Little Rock, Ark., Sept. 25th, 18(>7.
Akef.st or Gaeibaliu.—On Tuesday
24th September, General Garibaldi was
: arrested near a small town named Og
I cl yaga, by order of Victor Emanuel.
His intentions and designs were made
know 11 to Ins adherents, and conse
juticntly to the Kings Government, by
1 the clrdulntion amongst the rcvolntton
ists of inflammatory addresses issued
\ Iron Orogo on the 22d. The issue of
I these placed Victor Emanuel in a dif
I ferent position. By a recent convcn
i tion with Prance, under which the
i Prench troops evacuated Rome, he is
| bound to maintain the Papal territory
from filibustering expiditious coining
from Italy.
The King replied to Garabaldi's ad
dress by royal proclamation, which
w-as circulated on Suuday, in which lie
'■ denounced the Garibaldian movement,
and cautioned his subjects against aid
ing or taking part in it, and declared
his resolve to arrest and rigorously
! punish any of his puople who disobey
ed. as well as others arrested on the
soil of Italy engaged in crime against
the laws of nations. By virtue of this
proclamation has Garibaldi been arres
■ ted. The Italian Cabinet, under the
premiership of Rattazzi, is determined
' to prevent the invasion of their territo
ry by Garibaidians or any party of ac
tive mon, and also to preserve from
violation the Articles of Convention of
| September loth, with Prance, and other
I treaties guaranteeing the integrity of
| the Papal domain.
Geneual Garibaldi, in pursuance of
his plans against Rome, was on Mon
day at Sinigallga, sixteen miles north
Wfikl I t .OUnx.ll n-n.
summoned by Italian authority nud
under virtue oftheKings proclamation,
in the name of the law, to retrace his
steps. Garibaldi at once refused and
was immediately arrested by officers of
the crown, and was couvej ed after a
short delay to the Fortress of Alesen
dra. The arms and war munitions in
tended for the use of Garibaldi wore
sei/.ed on the frontier. The Italian
volunteers whoformed the Garibaldian
ranks were also made prisoners bv ttic
agents of the’Klng. The city of Rome
was greatly excited. The Pnpal troops,
including the Pontiff s legion, were on
the alert every « here.
Chase akd Confiscation.—Cliiei
Justice Chase lias gone to Ohio to assist
his party by his presence and counsels, as
is supposed, in the coming contest. In
reforeuoc to the political aspirations of the
Chief Justice, the Washington correspon
dent of the Boston Poet, September 18th,
says:
11 Chief Justice Chase seems determin
ed to bo President, lie made a high bid
to-day for the Radical vote. la alluding
to the powers of congress over the ques
tion of reconstruction, he said congress
possc-sed the cntiif power, including that
of confiscation, and that should there be a i
slip up ou the prescut reconstruction acts, J
he had no doubt a law confiscating south
ern property would be pasted. This is
certainly a step forward of the position j
occupied by the Chief Justice while hoi-'
ding his Crcuit Court in the State of
North Carolina. Then lie recognised the
rights of the Southern Htates under the
fAiastitul-on lie now seems to be stealing '
.Vr. Sunaua thunder, and talks outside of
lira Constitution about confiscation with
out trial and conviction. Mr. Chase has'
evidently lb* ic-ido trick, inf he is deter- 1
mine-.' t»' hMd it.
