There were sleighs, sleds and drags of every shapa and kind abroad on Sunday. Kverybudy who had a horse and set of har nes under his control, improvised some kindol sleigh, and was out with his liiiiuly Au tii.int' nnrluinlv a Ii iiinlt.,,1 f.im!lw.3 were abroad; but we heard of no accidents more serious than an occasional break down. A real summer bird, full and ''slopping over" of summer songs, makes its head quarters in tin; neighborhood of the Christian church, on Kighteenlli street. He U a most cheerful and persistent singer. and bceins so out of place in his surround ings of ice and snow, that we can't resist the impulse to make a local item out of him. -The scarcity and pour quality of Txik IjUM.ktih'8 original matter to-day, both local and editorial, arc due to the indispo sition of the editor. Conducting both de partments tit the paper hunting up the facts and writing from five to eight columns of matter daily, have over-taxed his capacity of endurance somewhat. Rut he'll soon get used to it. A lot of cattle were crossed from Mis souri, yesterday on the ice. Men on horse back and in buggies and wagons also passed without mishap. We don't know how thick the ice is; but before we'd use it as a bridge, we'd have to know that it was fro zen solid, to the bottom. Somebody, in his elfort to save ferriage, will make a fatal venturo before long. The necessity for caution can bo impressed upon some people in no other manner. Thero are two strange boys in the eitj, who are manifestly trying their fortunes abroad, and experiencing rather a rough time of it. They beg their food, are illy clad, und apparently very much down hearted. They came to Cairo from Vineeu nes, and express a purpose to go to Mem phis. They are the youngest brace of tramps we have yet seen upon the road; and it might prove an net of kindness to them to ship them buck to their starting point. The Ridfrcy children who were rentier "d homeless by tho tire of last Friday, huvo found a home in the family of Mr. Charley (i iver, who Ls in some manner related to Mr. Ralftvy. The fates have dealt harshly wiih Mr. I!., especially during the four iii':iths past. The epidemic niado a heavy reipii.iition upon hit family, and fire des troyed th.) roof that sheltered tho balance. May we not suggest that thofc fatalities cp.'ti the way to those who have enough and to spnre, to dispose of a portion of their plenty in a nioxt commend. ible manner. An up town family, consisting of threo or four females, hud and held their second bi'ini-wei k!y family scrimmage, Sunday night. They caused a terrific hubbuboo; but nt-id'i from some vigorous hair-pulling, vicious dress-tearing nnd unsisterly lace scratching, they iuilictcd but little damage upon one another. The family manage to live nt peace wi:h all the out.-iide world ; but there s.M'ined to be a geneml understanding that the truce should include m member of the family. There are iust enough of them to g"t up a well-balanced fight, and t ex- c-it even one ol them would dvrny the ' ';'.i-ii:ty ' ," i . i, etc i ;.r iiM w;.o oiaK, t bunks, in the mini' ,, ,. , i . ,..,.,, ..".., . , . . .i;s in s'.t myn Ii-.; 'it-. ), i lsi i eoiitrul 'i p.iSS'bsioit f ;,,( rjcp..6.( l.,.k. In ca , of family dis Keiitlons, tho noftussltl.l of tile bdjk is hill ly important, us the book in the ponessiou of Ilm jiarty in win we name the munt-y was deposited, is evidence of his rilit to draw scraiiibling upon a cake of ice, upon which he remained until he reached a (mint ipio .site Fillmoie, when a skitV was stut to his relief and brought him ashore. The man, after struggling a minute or Ho, went down and was seen no more, 'the till'air was witnessed by a number of pirsoin im the Kentucky shore, all of whom 'were un able to extend aid. The names of the par ties we could not ascertain. ! i Haekert, who was drowned jfrom the Cairo and Yineenncs wharf-boat a few days since, was a white man, and iot a col ored man, us stated the day following. He ami other laborers were cnirau'ed inoviii" a lot of keg beer, and either Ironi the beer that had oozed through the kegs and fWcn or from the bursting of a keg, the men ob tained a supply of beer ice. Of this it is said that Mr. Ilat k"it partook quite freely, growing merrier the while; but it was not thought that he was inluxieated. It was while engaged rolling this beer, however, that he fell into the water. The current being strong mid the ice miming heavily he speedily passed beyond the reach of help and was drowned. The itinerant old street brawler, who seems impressed with the idea that he if specially commissioned to convert tht world to a new faith, became mi intolerable, on Sunday lust, that the chief of police fell constrained to "take him in." He had taken up a position on the street, and, im agining thut fiends, and enemies of his faith were tearing the fic-sh from his bonen, and maltreating him oiln rw .sc, he anath ematized them with a strength of voice and ferocity of gesture that rendered him en tirely too conspicuous, to hay nothing of the effect upon the peace and quiet of tie neighborhood. The man is inanifisfly crack-brained; anil should be added to the marshal's herd of olephantrt. In no other way is the city likely to rid itself of bis presence. Rarclay Urn's. Washington avenue drug store was entered by a burglar Sunday night, or before daylight yesterday morning. The clnuige left in the till, and a few porta ble articles of value were appropriated by the rascal, and a quantity of cigars were placed in position lor removal. At this juncture, it is supposed, something occurred that frightened the fellow away. Tlm val ue of the property taken has not b.;en made known; but that is immaterial. The gist of the offence lies in the breaking into the building, The police have the cass in hand, and it is to be hoped they will work it to a successful issue. The capture of this culprit, following ho closely od the nabbing of the Furnhaker burglar, would have a good effect. It would serve to warn other burglariously inclined rascals that Cairo is not a safe place in which to ply their vocation. We find the MSS. of the following para graph, discriptive of a sleigh ride to Mound City, in our copy box, and, in the hopj that it will please the parties interested, give it place : A trio of our Cairo folks, composed of one male and two females, took a sleigh rKIc to Mound City, on Sunday last, thinking to have some pleasure and a great deal of fun, and so it "panned out." Arriving ill Mound City they drew up in front of a riiIdoii, got out, went in, and while they wert citing oysters and drinking wine, etc., some of the Mound City gentry loosened und drew some bolts nearly out of the sleigh, just leaving them so that thev knew the sleigh would not travel far nor over any sidling ground without there being u beautiful laysiut. This done, they placed themselves at u afe distance to watch lor coining events. In due time our trio emerged from the sahon, mounted their sleigh and started for Cairo, but when they had gone about a square, there was a sudden descent, a rotting in the snow, etc. The parties picked themselves up, went and procured soine new bolts, fix ed their sleigh, and returned home to Cairo after dark, freely confessing that they were the victims ot a cruel joke. XXX. The funeral procession that followed Mr. Stoekflcth'B remains to tho cars, yester day afternoon, wus one of the largest ever seen on a similar occasion, in the city. It embraced the Odd Fellows, Rough and Ready fire company, tho Casino society, of which organizations deceased had been a member, and a large number of citizens, both ladies and gentlemen. Headed by n brass band dis coursing a funeral march, the procession moved to the cars a solemn and impressive sight to all who beheld it. The crowd at the grave, to witness the Odd Fellows' buri al rit.es, was also large. Indeed, from the time he was taken sick, until the last sad riles of sepulture were conipletid) the re spect and attention given to him showed that he occupied a conspicuous place in the hem ts of our people. He was a man who could be seen daily in ivery part of the 'ty; and always jjvial anil good nutiired, tlie people will miss him, as they would mins few othir.s in the city. His. death, 'though for days anticipated, was( a shock to his friends; and so intimately wus he connected with a largo portion of the com munity by t internal u well us fn.'.nlly and social ties, that the changes of years will only dim, not obliterate, the memory of him. 1 J.i n Miiiiu has been, during the ten days paM, the lion of the Chicago bar. Ib is one of the uttnrnejM for ihedeli nee in the notorious St, IVtru-Clark murder case; and put into his defence lt the patlnw, tact and tongueineis in- couhl master. His closing speech, n seven hours' effort, was the "ten Mike" of Dan's legal life. While he is manifestly not a favorite with Chicago newspaper men, they felt constrained to coi'fess that his speech w us remarkable for its pathos. Throwing all the soul he pos sessed into his deep, sonorous, nusul toned voice, he brought tears to the eyes, even of the jurors, who were selected in a measure, because of their supposed ability to resiht the effects of that kind of oratory, During the progress of the trial, the prosecution sent all the way to Dupage county for the murdered man's heart, ribs ami sternum. The sternum had not been taken out entire, but enough of it was secured, it was thought, t' disprove Muiin's theory that the man had been nlmt in the breast. Here was a triumph for' the prosecution. The testimony closed, the s-peeches were commenced. To the surprise of everybody and the consternation of the prosecution, Menu ".sailed into'' the attorneys prosecut, ing, and the physician who txhiiined the body, as a gang of mm who had entered into a dark and damnable eonshir.icv against the lives of his clients. They had brought into court that portion of the sternum that w as perfect, purposely leaving the pel (orated portion in the festering body of the murdered man ! It was useless for the prosecution to insist that they had done no such thing; the case wus closed, and they could get no testimony to support their denial before the jury. Jlut above all these protestations arose Mnnn's demand to know why the whole and not a part, only, of the dead man's sternum was not in court,' The prosecution was completely "floored," Munn stock rose accordingly, and he cleared his clients. A number of Cairo young folks re turned from Missouri, yesterday, the hap pist set, even from the memory of their ex perience, we have seen during the holidays. On Friday evening last, the eleg..ntly fur nished parlors of Stephen liird's spacious and well appointed home, were filled by a group ol young folks, who, under the l-ml of Mr. und Mrs. 15ird. were bent upon a season of rational eiiioyment. Atnoii!r oth"is present were the following: Mi-s Annie Dunn, Mks Mamie Taylor, Mis MoiiieOlark, Miss IJedl'ord. Miss Rirdie Al mond, Miss Cockrell, Mi-s Pup -nia Moshay. Miss Annie Hunter, sister of Mrs. Stephen Rird, Miss Annie Hunter, sister of Mrs. A. .1. Rird, Mr. and Mrs. A. J. Rird, Mr. and Mrs. Thompson Rird, Miss Alice I.sue, Mis.s Rodney. Mrs. Win. Stratton. Mr. Robert Danforth, Mr. Louis ('. Sehuekers, Mr. Kd ward Deihl, Mr. J S. Russell, Mr. William Hunter, Messrs. Wiil and Ld l'ink, Mr. Kugene Kllis, Waller Jack.-oii, Mr. Rodney and .Mr. Hisey. About T, o'clock a most eleg:intlv spread. bniinlil'iil and toothsome supper was immui'iccil, and the iminnir in which it was lii-ci'ssr-il g;u,. c i'miicing proof of a keen reli-h. l"r in this time forth, uniil twelve o'clock, the programme was to lay aside the .-tiff restraints of metropolitan so ciety, and ( nter, heart and soul, into the en joyment of the quadrille, the Virginia reel, and round dunces. At midnight another repast was spread, not a whit less tempting or abundant than that of the early evening, and appetites quite as keen, were invited to the work of demolition. How, from that time forth until early morning, the dance was kept up; how the party amused itself until after the next day's mid-day meal; how all of tin-in then sought the "balmy restorer," only to awake to a pressing invi tation to join in a dance that evening at the home of Mr. Thompson Rird how all this happeded, must be passed over with a mere mention. Until the clock tolled ol!' the hour of 12, the dance at Mr. Thompson Rird's went on, and mer riment was unrestrained. The praise of the cordiality, of the real, southern hospi tality, and unstudied courtesy and kindness of Mr. and Mrs. Stephen and Mr, and Mrs. Thompson Rird, is on the lips of every one of the participants. They are, one and all of them, delighted with their experience, and declare, with an enthusiasm no to be mistaken, that the interval between jFriday noon and Monday morning, wia thehappi est ot their lives; and listening to tlfe rluip- nodical declamation of , one or twd of the party whom wo noppeneu to meeti we are not inclined to question their sincerity, Lihk is but short, nnd wo should do all we can to prolong it.
