Au Arkansas Traveler. Last Spring ono of the first emigrants front this County was an old colored man, named Adam <_> ny ton, from the Brushy Creek Township of tho County, who is about fifty-live years of uge, und ho bas come back thoroughly disgusted with Arkausas. Ho went out in thc party with Joe Lee, Moso Leo, Jehu Thomas und others, and settled about ono hundred miles from Little Rock. All of tho party settled as farm luborers except Jobu Thomas, who organized tho party, and be Bays taught school until tho sickly season, and then left them. The country is ? low swamp, in which the health ia said to bo healthy until Summer, when dulls and fevers rage with destroying violence. Tho water, ho s. s, is foul and bad tasted. They aro paid seventy-five cents per day for wages when they do day work, but aro required to board them selves, and buy from the man they work with. The most of them, however, are paid u part of tho crop. Ile says they aro charged 18 couta a pound for bacon, wbon the stores sell it for ll cents : $1.25 for meal, which sells at 75 cents, and other articles in proportion. Ho says hands are called to work by a boll, and that they are pushed by an overseer on horseback all day long.* Ho states that banda here do not know what work is, and says be hos come back to H tay in thia country. He says of the party of thirty mon and women who went out with him, about half aro dead, and that nearly all of the children lu the party have died. He ad vises all who think 6~? going to Arkansas to live to abandon it at once. He gives torrible accounts of tho want, privation and utter destitution of the poor, doludod negroes who go out there. All who con - templato going should BCO and talk with him. He is now living in BruBhy Creel: Township in this County. The Market.
