It will take place on the night of the seventh of January, and Is to be, we are told, the greatest event of the kind that has ever been held in Cairo. Preparations for It have already been begun, and no labor or expense will be spared to accomplish thu success of thu great undertaking. The most promi nent Odd Fellows in the State of Illinois will be present, nmong whom will be Pat Grand Master Ellis, and Gen. E. B. Sherman, both of Chicago, also at one time Grand Master of theSt-Ue. Dr.Smlth's lecture on Tuesday night, for the benefit of the Library Associa tion, when he will take for his subject "Pre-HUtoric Man," promises to be one of tlie finest lectures yet delivered during the course. Dr. Smith Is endowed witli great ability as a writer and speaker, and has for several weeks been making preparations lor this ad dress. Hu has gathered many relics and curiosities, as well as parts of skeletons of the people who lived lu this country before our time, with which hu will glyu the most Interesting and Instructive Illus trations. The lecture will take place in thu Presbyterian church, nnd should not be missed by any of our people. Thu sociable given by the members ot the Encampment of Odd Fellows, in Odd Fellows' hall, on Friday night, proved a mo't pleasant aflalr. Tho hall was crowded with tho members of the camp and their families, who all seemed In the best of moods, and axlousto make their friends feel easy and comfortable hout halt-pat 10 o'clock, a sumptuous upper, made up of tho most desirable delicacies, prepared by tho good wives and daughters of thu members, was spread in the rear hall, of which all pres ent portook unsparingly. Dancing was begun early lu thu evening, and carried on by the younger part of thu assembly, while thu older and more scdato persons present chatted very pleasantly together, without Intermission until supper time. Alter supper, the danco was once more begun, anil continued until 1 o'clock, when thu sociable was broken up, and all went to their homes well pleased with the pleasure they had been allowed to en joy. Tho Taylor Literary Society and Cairo Boating Association, assisted by Mrs. Winter, .Mrs. Wright, Mrs. Dr. Smith, Mrs. Dr. Wardnersind Miss Mary Wardncr, presented for thu Second time the play of "Led Astray," at tho Athe- neuin. Owing to other events that were taking place, there was not so large an nudiunco present as there should have been, but, notwithstanding this, tho ladies and gentlemen played their parts with greater ability, we dare say, than on the previous evening, and several of our prominent cltl.ens. feeling that tho enter tainment had not neon patrouizeii as it should havu been, requested the perform crs to present thu piay again last, input, assuring them that a goon house would irrcet them, as there were many who had been kept from attending who desired to sco them. Accordingly, thn pleeo wns put upon tho boards last night for tho third time, and was witnessed by a good audience. Adrian II. iluller, Auctioneer. OAUtO CITY I'HOrURTV STOCK AT AUCTION. Adrian II.

Kniroii Bullktin Th.nik?KlvlnJ' day liru come aud gone, and thinking per haps a description of how Mich a day Is passed lu a ''mad-house,1' I shall under take to tell your readers what was done hero to-day. The leading feature of the occasion vraj, of course, the usual "Thanksgiving dinner," In which the time-honored turkey took the prominent part, supported by a species of the bird which is said to have done an important service on a certain occasion lor tho citi zens of ancient Home, also duck nnd other fowl, vegetaKles, fruits, etc., with out limit ; aud to say that the unforlunate insane "KAT AND WEUK WELL FILLED," would scarcely do the subject Justice. Of course all work was suspended for the day, and at 3 o'clock the Inmates, all decked In their best attire, were uhcred into the new chapel (Just llulshcd aud dedicated last Sunday), where the evening's enter tainment was commenced with the grand march, followed by cotilllonsand the usual round dances, In which PATIENTS AND EMPLOYES, Indiscriminately mixed up, lalrly "threw themselves away." This kind or amuse incut appears the only one In which In sane persons generally seem to take an Interest. Alter the dance Ihe audience were fa vored with some very line vocal and In strumental music by the members of the choir ol one ol the Joncsboro churches, followed by some very fine piano and organ music by employes und others. THE suri-Eit IIOU1I having arrived, tho patients returned to their various halls where more luxuries were partaken of, and at 7 o'clock again went to the chapel, where dancing and music wa eiuraged in until 0 o'clock, when thu festivities of tho day were brought to n close, and the INMATES UEIIIIED for thu night, apparently with feelings of gratitude to Dr. lhirucs, the superintend ent, and his able assistant, Dr. Mercer, tor the treat provided for them. When it Is known that nearly ONE HUNDIIED INSANE VKUSONS were engaged In these amusements, and that not a single unpleasant Incident oc curred to mar thu pleasurers of the day, it will no doubt ho a matter ol MiiprKo to thoso of your readers wno have lormed their ideas ol a "mad house" after rending such descriptions of them as arc to be found In such novels as 'Hard Cash," and publications of a like character, I venture to assert that It would bo scarcely possibly to collect to gether n miscellaneous crowd of sane persons In any commuulty that would behave themselves lu a more decorous manner than did this crowd ot almost a bundled crazy people. The days ol chains aud straight-Jackets and padded rooms has passed by ; and ktndnoss and gentle treatment Is now thu means resorted' to to cure theso victims of the most fearful disease to which man Is subject. Although this asylum is comparatively a new one, and many dllllcultics had to be overcome to get it Into good running shape, that end has been attained, and your corres pondent can safely say that a better managed institution would be dllllcult to tlnd,aud thu unfortunate insane of South ern Illinois may congratulate themselves that they have fallen Into thu hands of men so considerate of their comtort aud welfare, as are Drs. llarnes and Mer- cjr.
