itnessedthe dreadful accident.
Under the supervision of Mr. William

Exteiisive preparations arc already be
ing made for the coming presidential in
augural. Various military and civic or-
gBuizatiunn throughout the country have
been invited ami have signified their inten
tion to participate. It is reported that Irom
prtsent indication", the inaugural proces
sion will exceed in jif and magnificence
all its predecessors.
Several gentlemen who have signed
the petition for a street railroad, circulated
by Mr. Thos. Lewis, inform us that they
ignod it under a wrong impression and
propose to have their names stricken lrom
the list. Every person in the city is anx
ious that a street railroad should be built,
but, probably, they desire a man of mom
reliability than Mr. lowis at the head
of it.
The main objection most people have
to sending communications on postal cards
is that the writing is, of course, open to
general persnal. A good way of avoiding
this difficulty is to use sympathetic ink. A
solution of ten grains of hyposulphute of
soda in sixteen teaspuonfuls of water ia the
simplest fluid for the purpose. Cse n per
fectly clean pen, nnd after writing go over
the letter with 0 smooth paper-cutter to re
move all traces of the suit. Exposure, to
the heat of bright coal tiro turns the
writing black.
There is howling and gnuihiugol teeth
among the Charleston, Illiuois, saloon
kocpen. The temperance- people of that
city, however, are wearing on their lacea a
smile that is well nigh ungulic in Its
serenity. Tho contest between the friends
of tcmpetatico and the laloonists was a long
and bitter one, but the cold water fraternity
finally triumphed. Tho city council hit
rofused to renew any more liquor hcunsos
and tho saloons were all forced to close.
Other Illinois towns are expected to follow
the example of Charleston mid the w hisky
sellers are becoming hot.
We call attention to tho card of Lloyd
aud McKeau, bankers of Now York, in
another column, Both members of the firm
are favorably known from their long con
nection with the banking house of Fisk
and Hatch. Duriug the past year they have
been doing a prosperous business in gov
crumcut bonds and other investment secur
ities. They also do a stock brokerage bus!

No audience was ever bettor pleased
than was the one which last night greeted
the Gulick-Blaisdel combination at the
atheneutu. The audience was kept in an
almost constant ronr of laughter from be
ginning to end aud everything went off
smoothly. A constant smile was visiblo on
the most long faced in the audience and
not one regretted the timo nnd money
spent to sec them. The house will doubt
less be packed to overflowing to-night
"Birds of a feather will flock together."
The organ of the Eighth street supreme
court tells what one of its democratic
politicians said yesterday of The Bcli.etin
and its niananTinent. Wc noticed theRe
same democratic politicians, on election
day, working hard at the polls to defeat
the independent county tickets. The re
sult might have been foretold. Like the
work of the orgau, their work only tcrved
to iner.-ase the majority of the independent
tieket.
Bogus gold and silver coins ure be
coming remarkably and alarmingly plenti
ful these days. Among the latest is an
imitation silver dollar, which will generally
deceive tho intoxicated and unobserving,
for whom it is intended. It is ol good ap
pearance when new, but very light and de
void of the true riug. Five, ten and twenty
dollar gold pieces arc also getting largely
in circulation. In finished appearance and
weight they are said to exactly resemble
the genuine, but can be distinguished upon,
a careful comparison by a slight difference
in color and lack of ringing propensities.
A meeting of the corporators, stock
holders and directors of the Cairo and
Mound City railroad company was held at
the wharf master's office, No. 7.) Ohio
Levee, yesterday forenoon. Besides n trans
action of the routine business two new
director were appointed and twenty-five
thousand dollars additional stock
was subscribed making the total
stock now subscribed cighty
sevou thousand five hundred dol
lars. The former officers of the company
were retained, and it was agreed thnt the
building of the road should be commenced
at once.
The card of Dm. W, R. Smith & Son
appears in this morning's issue, to which we
call the attention of our readers. The sen
ior member of the firm is one of our oldest
and most respected nod competent physi
cians to whose reputation we could not add
one lota, and who enjoys a very extensive
practice. The junior member is also well
known to every citizen of Cairo. He was
born and raised in this community, stud
ied diligently in various medical institu
tions and graduated honorably. He is a
young man of much promise and some ex
perience who deserves the re.spoct and con
fidence which he enjoys.
In the county court, Judge Yocum
presiding, the case of Chas. Long, a black
man and Rosana Robinson, a white woman,
for living in adultery together, was dispos
ed of, both being sentenced to confinement
in the county jail for six'.y days. In the
case of Patier & Co., vs.
Betsy Harrington and I John Ilcaley,
judgement was rendered for
the prosecution, but an appeal was taken to
the ckeuit court. In the case of Hawking
T(Tsary Brown, brought before the court
on M appeal from Squire Comings, the
judgment was reversed in favor of de
fendant. The court has adjourned until
Tuesday, when objections to sidewalk as'
segments will be heard.
The high school scholars carriod out
anothor highly interesting progromme yes
terday nftcrnoon, their regular lime for in
dulging in a display ol their various
literary nnd clocutionnry talents. The at
tendance of parents of the pupils and other
of our prominent citizens was fair, nnd all
were, of couise, well pleased with what
they witnessed. At the appointed time
the exercises were begun with a piano
solo by Miss Rosa Ooldstine, nnd then the
programme was carried out in the order
following: Miss Evil bheppurd, with a
historical question, concerning Socrates:
Miss . Mamie Halliday, anoth
er historical query, concerning
Tlmckery; geogrnphicul exercises between
twelve scholars, six on cither aide, Lee

an essay entitled "Socrates" by Miss Maude
Rittenhouse, conclude! the programme.
All the exercises were ere Jitablo to all who
took part in them. The readings und com
positions and declainatiocs and music all
proved that the scholars had eiven much
time and earnest study to their respective
parts and displayed considerable talent
while they interested and also instructed
the auditors.
Tim Lincoln Record says: "Spring
field dkpatchea to the Chicago papers inti
mates that Col. It. R. Latham, of this city,
is to succeed Hon. John II. Oberly in the
state ward of uilrovl and warehouse
commissioners." In reply to this the
Springfield Monitor says: "Since Gov.
Culloui hus declared thnt Hon. John II.
Olxtrly was th'. most efficient member on
the board, he will hardly conclude to
bounce him. Men of busineu, who tnein
business, don t do business in that wty,"
Th: Urrible small-pox is prevailing in
San Francisco to an alarming extent.
Many deaths have occurred, and the daily
mortality is constantly increasing. Some
of tho best hotels in tho city are sending
away their afflicted by the scora, and it is
teared by many of the most experienced
physicians that the disja.su will spread
much further before it can bo checked.
Strangely enough, the disease so tar, has
confined itself almost exclusively to the bet
ter class of people, very few cases having
occurred among the poorer and more neg
lected classes.
The other day we had occasion to visit
the county jail, and there, for the first time
since her incarceration, we met Mrs. Whit
camp, who our readers will rerucmbcr is
accused of murdering her husband. She.
was greatly pleased to receive a visit, and
after a word or two on different subjects,
enquired whether she was regarded as
guilty ot the crime by the people. Oiving
her no definite answer, she commenced
pleading herca.se with considerable energy
and eloquence enumerating a number of
reasons why she could not possibly bo
found guilty of the crime. Although a lit
moro pale than before she entered the jail,
shtf looked as well as ever, and was ap
parently enjoying the best of health. Her
sentence, notwithstanding that the msjority
ot our people belive her guilty ot the crime,
will probably be very light, and in it few
years she will again enjoy her. liberty.
Last night's attendance at the Reform
hall was very good in fact larger than it
has been during the past few meetings and
tho old interest prevailed from beginning
to end. A poem, entitled "Body and Soul,"
written by Mrs. Jacob Martin, was listen
ed to with the closest attention by the
audience and was well read by Mis Edith
Martin. Sir. Murphy,of Murphybboro.spoke
for about half an hour, telling princi
pally of the progress of the temperance
cause in bis town and the good
it waa accomplishing there. During the
business portion of the meeting, a commit
tee was appointed to solicit contributions
to the amount of five dollars for the tem
porary relief of the Soet family, who is still
in greot distress. The section of the con
stitution, whicli forbids the discussion of
sectarian or political questions, wus amend
ed as follows: "This article shall not bn
construed as prohibiting tho discussion of
measures looking to the suppression of in
temperance by law or otherwise." On tntf
turn the Young People's Temperance as
sociation was invited to occupy the hall
Friday after next.
r-At five o'clock p. m., day before yes
terday, a man arrived here from Cleveland,
Oiiio.aud sought our officers to assist him in a

left him some weeks ago and joined a two

and both went to the St. James hotel,
on the corner of Eight atreet
and Ohio levee, where it wai
learned that the woman was in her room.
They went to the door of her room and
rapped, and when uhe opened, her hus
band wai suddenly shoved into the room.
The officer waited outside awhile, but find
ing that all was quiet within departed.
Next raornioa Officer Schuckera
again visited the hotel to
see whether his &o price were required by
the unfortunate hubband, but found that
both had departed for their home it is sup
posed. Those of opt citizens who saw the
Circassiao(f) woman at the show on Eighth
street, will be sadly disappointed in the
change that has come over what they be
lieved to be a human curiosity.
Night before last a gontloman, who
shall be nameless, called at the police head
quarters and informed O fleers Schuckers
and Uogto, who weru found there, that a
young friend of his (who shall also be
nameless) intended to commit suicide dur
ing the night, and requested that the offi
cer! keep an eye on him.
They promised to do so, and being
told that tho would-be auicidc was last snen
walking down the levee, they immediately
went in search of him. After about a 1
quarter of an hour's search, they fonnd him
in a levoe saloon, a good deal under the in
fluence of liquor, and took him in charge.
He told the officers his intention ; said he
hail fully made up his mind to take his life
and nothing could prevent him accom
plishing the act. He had thought the mat-,
ter over for several days and had prepared
his aoul to meet his God by prayiog for
the lait two or three hours. Tho officerg
tried to reason with him, and finally per
suaded him to go home, promising that
they would not follow him. This be
agreed to, and started, but in
stead of going home, mado straight for
the railroad fctrip where a few minutes later
the officers found him on his knees, pray
ing with uplifted bands and a two ounce
bottle of laudnum by his side. Seeing that
if left alone in his crazed condition be
would probably accomplish his self destruc
tion tho officers pocketed the laudnum
and conveyed him to his home.
