The grand moonlight excursion on the

Mad Accident.
From a letter received at this ofllec
from Ullln, we learn that on Monday
morning, about two o'clock, as the north
bound pascnger train on the Cairo &
Viuecnnes railroad nearcd that station,
thellremauot the engine discovered a
man lying on the track. He wanted the
engineer, who, upon looking thought It
was a calf, but it prorcd to be the body
of a man named Joel Lackey, a man
about thirty years of age. The remains
were horribly mangled, and the largest
part ot them found was the head.
At Work.
A gang of workmen under Street Su
perintendent Gorman are nt present en
gaged In repairing Washington Avenue
in the neighborhood of the Court House,
and Centre street, between Washington
Avenue and Walnut street. The streets
mentioned have for a long time past been
lit almost an Impossible state, and their
improved condition will be greatly apprc'
elated not only by our citizens but by the
countrymen who arc compelled to pass
over that portion of V ashington Avenue
fronting the Court House.
Bitten by a Uof.
Little Katie Hyland, a daughter ol Mr.
John Hyland, was yesterday morning
bitten in the hand by u savage dog. The
wound is quite a painful one, although
not serious. Upon hearing of the fact,
Mayor Winter and Health Ofllccr Brown

neck a roic, to which was attached a good

Another Faint Alarm.
We yesterday stated upon reliable au
thority, that Hutchinson, the murderer
of Suttar. had been arrested at Fulton,
nnd that Deputy Sheriff John Cain had
gone after and was expected to return
with the prisoner yesterday morning.
Upon arriving nt Fulton, the officer
lottnd that the wrong man had been
caged again, and lie returned yesterday
alone. Hutchinson, though some say he
Is not "very bright," fccems to know hoiv
to keep out of reach of those who are al
ter him, if he don't know much of any
thing else.
Keturn of a Fortune Hunter.
Mr. Pete Sjmullens, whose home Is on
the Cumberland river eight miles from
the mouth, took passage on the James
Fisk yesterday, having Just returned
from an eighteen months' tramp in Cali
fornia. Mr. Smullens went out with a
party of forty fortune hunters, everyone
of whom would be back to-day, he says,
If they had the means. They arc all
working by the day on low wages nt
at what ever employment they can get
and are scarcely making a living. Nearly
all had money when they went, but have

A Bis Excursion.
By reference to advertisement else
where, It will be seen that an ttxeursion
will go over tho C. & V. road to Tunnel

the biggest affair of the klud that has
taken place this season. The various com
mittees for the perfecting of every arrange
ment are 601111)046(1 of gentlemen who arc
thoroughly versed in planning affairs
of tho kind, and wo feel assured that in
this instance no effort will be spared on
their part to make this excursion otto of
real enjoyment and pleasure to all who
participate. Tho fare for thu round trip
Is astonishingly low, and will no doubt
bo taken advautagc of by a large number
ofpeoplo along the Hue of the road to
pay a visit to Tunnel 11111, ami many
other places of Interest in that section of
our State.

Jackson Is one hundred and seven miles,
nnd as Jackson is one of the most beauti
ful and flourishing towns in the South,
persons vho have never visited the city

Uhltrainp and Nchimtcr.
The acJon of Mayor Winter, that ol
expelling from the police force of the
city, Me.rs. Whltcamp and Schuster, Is
again tie topic or conversation among
many of the citizens. The Mayor seems
detcrmlicil In his efforts to divest these
two gentlemen of their titles as police
officers, while Whltcamp and Schuster
are as fully determined in their purpose
to outwit His Honor, and remain on the
force, vhether the. Mayor wants-them
there ot not. Mayor Winter declares
that ids ilrst effort to expel Messrs.
Whltcamp and Sclnuter was not sustain
ed by the Council for the reason that he
did not tct fortlt what the Aldermen
considered charges sufficiently strong,
or rather charges that could not be sus
tained, while Messrs. iMiltcamp and
fcclnutcr aver that the charges were
false and uutounded. The Mayor now,
however, has become thoroughly worked
up by the refusal of the City Council to
sustain him in his actions, and for several
days has been engaged in taking the afil
invie of a number of citizens,
which, lie .t;rtJi cannot be set
aside as the first eharjro were. Mcesr.
n iiitcamp and Schuster say they arc en-
v..ij igiiorantot the nature of the affida
vits, but arc perfectly willing to meet
them, as they have not, ice their official
career, committed any a. tiat ,.amiot
withstand the storm when vu i,attle
takes place. The council will how us
next regular monthly meeting three
wccks irom last mgnt, wuen me flavor
will present his affidavits.
Police Court.
Police Court news yesterday was as
follows: Thomas Wilson, an offender
who would as soon be in jail as out, was
taken In charge lor getting drunk, and
fined two dollars and costs and sent to
jail for two days.
Bock Conllu was arrested by Officer
Gladney on complaint of a man named
Porter, who claimed that Kocky had rob
bed him of six dollars and twenty cents
while asleep on one ot the wharf-boats.
He was taken before Judge Bird, who,
after hearing the evidence in the case,
held him to ball in the sum or one hun
dred dollars to answer the charge at the
present term or the County Court. He
now languishes In the county jail.
Sarah Buchanan was arrested by
Sargent Wootcu on Monday night for
being drunk and disorderly. His Honor
assessed a fine of five dollars and costs
against her, but she was given a stay of
execution until twelve o'clock last night,
when she promised to "shake" tho town.
This self-samo Sarah was tip before
Judge llross on Moudiy, on a similar
charge, and was sentenced to serve a
term in the calaboose, but was given
a stay, provided '.she would leave.
She says that she was about to comply
with the provisions by which she was
set tree on Monday, but w hile on her way
to tho train on Monday night, she
got drunk and missed the train. She
was politely informed by the officer that
ifshowas caught In Cairo to-day, ho
would put her up for n hundred days.
