The names of the dead are Allen, of Mis

aud Updegraff, of Ohio, to which has now
been added the name of Orth, of Indiana,

The Hew penal code of New York
which took effect on the 1st inst, prohibits

trade, manufacturers, or mechanical em
ployments; fourth, public traffic; and fifth,
the service of legal process. It has made
quite a revolution among tho Sunday sales

internal revenue office at Cairo, and if ho
becomes postmastor ho w'.ll leave a vacan

"Who will bo Gen. Pavey's chief deputy?"
Echo answers "Who." It seems to us that
echo whispers faintly "W. II. Eubanks, of

From a comparison of tho complete
ceusus reports as to manutacturos taken in
1880 with those of 1870, it appears tint the
number of establishments have increased
only seven per cent, number of hands cm
ployed, 33.3 per centjcapit.il, 31.7; wages
paid, 22.2; value of material, 30.4; value of
products, 20 0. Considering that our "in
fant" industries w;ro fed with a high tariff
spoon, and considering the increase in pop
ulation, this showing is not flittering to tho
country. A better showing might bo made
if the pocket books and bank and boud ac
counts of tho monopohs s woro compared
with what they wer j ten yeirs previously.

Aodrcss is also an illusionist and veutrillo
quist of remarkable power, and has drawn
and amazad large audiences wherever ho
has been. In connection with this wonderful
slight-of-haud perform mce he also gives an
exhibition with trained birds and other
animals which is very iuteresting, and gives
with each ticket of admission one or. two

Mr. B ickel, the expert appointed by
the court to receive from Keeley tho secret
of his invention, has ma4c au examination
of tho nature of tUonit;r. Bock el's ex

that the water in its natural statu "is capa
ble of being by vibra'ory action disintrega
ted so that its m dccular structure is broken
up and there is evolved therefrom a perma
nent expulsive gas, vapor or ether which
result is produced by mechanical action."
Bock'.d, who probably understands his own
explanation, expresses great confidence iu
tho outcome of the invention, and Keeley
promises that a new engine of five hun
dred horse power will soon be ready for
trial.
Thomas C. Graves is a high toned
colored gentlemen who has a step-father
who has a looking-glass. AU three lived to
gother in thi same houso and the looking
glass was hung up in Thaniss' room, until
yesterday, wheu the step-father, having
become offended nt something that Thomas
had said or done, resolved that his looking
glass should no longer adorn Thomas'
room, and ho went aud took it out, so he
did, aud hung it up in his own room. Now
th"ru is such a thing as holy anger, tho
bo k of b oks tells us so; and if there is
any thing which ou.jht to exoi'.e this pas
sion in a nun an 1 . causo him to raise the
devil generally, it is whoa a man's 6tep fath
er takes his own looking-glissout of a man's
room. Ot coursi Thomas' step-father's
very utistep-'atherly act riled Thomas and
ho 'Vt the teeth nnd stretched tho nostril
wide, held hard the breith and bent up
his spirit to in full height.'' He swore by
all the sons of II im that ho would have
his step f ithor's lookiug-glucs in his own
room. Like "a soldier, full of strong oaths
aud bearded like a pard, jealous in honor,
su lden and quick in quarrel, seeking the
bubble reputation even in the. crmnon's
mouth," Thonm laid siege to tho cruel
step-father's citule, captured it and cur
ried tho lookimi-glaes back in triumph to
his own stronghold, and fought back the
euomy who sought to recover his own.
Tho enemy, thoroughly beaten iu a contest
at arms, gave up tho looking glass but
thirsted for rovengo and got it by Ifaving
Thomas arrested and fined five dollars mid
costs by Magistrate Comings.
Mr. Ohcrly of tho Bloomington Bul
letin and chairman of tho Illinois state
Democratic central committee, in the "mod

with having been principally instrumental
in bringing about the very flittering Dem
ocratic Kaiiu in this state at the lato elec
tion, by his wise and energetic manage
ment of tho orupnign, ho replies in his
paper, "Tho Bulletin feels in duty bound
to say, that to Mews. William J. Mizr, of
tho Sullivan Progress, secretary of tho Dem
ocratic state central committee, and to
George W. Weber, formerly of tho Spring-
Register, most of tho credit given to Mr.
Obcrly by the Herald-Advocate and others
is due, Mr. Mizo has a genius for tho do
tails of organization and an industry that
never becomes weary, while Mr. Weber, as
industrious as Mr. Mizo, is a walking Illi
nois political encyclopaedia. Without
these two-geutlemen, Mr. Oberly would
have been helpless would have been a
ship at sea without any rudder would
have drifted through the campain. Ho
owes the remarkablo organization of tho
party in the state, which was affected with
in three weeks before election day, to these
two gentlemen, and ho cau take credit to
himself for but one thing, and that is he had
the sense to appreciate tho good qualities of
these two gentlemen, and to act in tho
most perfect harmony with them during
all tho timo he and they worked together
at Chicago for Ibe success of the Demo
cratic party."
The celebration of tho twenty-fifth an
uiverary of the Presbyterian church last
night was participated in by a large num
ber of people irrespective of denomination
al sffoliations. Tho church was decorated
profusely. There were garlands of green
suspended from the ceiling and bung iu
graceful curves over tho pulpit aud against
tho wall. A wreath of green was suspen
ded over each window, and from each
wreath hung a banner of aehcato tint, in
scribed with a motto appropriate to the oc
casion. On tho roar wall was the inscrip
tion in letters ot green, "Pray fortho good
ot Jerusalem." An arch of red over the
eutranco to the lecture room was inscribed
in letiors of silver "Tno Lord hath been
mindful of us" and on tho pillars whs,
"1857" and 1883"' respectively. Tho church
whs nearly full ot people to listen to ad
dress., of Rev. George and of Rev. Olm
sted who was ono of tho founders of the
church. Mr. George's address wtiS a con
densed history of the church from its first
inception, a grateful acknowledgement of
the services of those who were active in
its establishment, and an eloquent appeal
to those who might take au active part in
making its history during tho coming
twenty-five years, to make such a record
as would give those who might celebrate
tho fiftieth anniversary as pleasant a retro
spect n9 was now enjoyed. Rev. Olmsted
made a tew congratulating remarks
aud was followed by Rev
George who read a letter written by
Rev. Olmsted in 1854, giving some very in
teresting tacts about Cairo as it then was.
Rev. Scarritt offered prayer after this, and
then the company repared to tho lecture
room of tho church, there to partake of a
feast provided by the ladies of tho church
A JUMBLE OF ERRORS.'
The St. Louis Post-Dispatch of tho 10th
inst. publishes the following item iu Hs
railroad column :
"Mr Charles Hamilton, superintendent
of the St. L. & C. narrow gauge goes to
Cairo this evening to bo present at the
hearing of thj case of the city of Cairo vj.
tho St. L. & C. railway, which has been
pending for a long time. Tho track of the
road was originally, in 1875, built on the
levee into the city and was washed away
by an overflow of tho river. The road then
secured a temporary right of way further
in from the river, and are still using that.
Another right of away along the levee has
been granted by tho legislature aud the
grade thrown up all th5 way excepting
across an alloyed street iu tho outskirts of
tho city, from crossing which tho city has
enjoined them-except by paying an exorbit
ant sum for tho rix'ht, whiijh the company
refuses to do, and hence the proceedings."
Very evidently tho information containod
in the above item, concerning tho legal
contest pending between tho city of Cairo
and the St. Louis & Cairo railroad com
pany, alias the Cairo & St. Louis railway
company, and tho causes which led thereto,
wasfurni hod by Col. Hamilton himself
au 1 it ought therefore to be reliable and
correct, but it is not not in a 6ingle im
portant particular. For tho gross errors
in tho item there is no excuse whatever,
especially as they were made upon authori
ty of Col. Hamilton, who ought to, and
probably does, know all the facts in the
C1M
The facts are briefly these: In 1875 tho
nilroad company had a right of way over
ono of the best leveo embankments in
the country, and it hal been grunted
that right of way upojj condition that
it maintain the embankment aoiinst
any and all escu0achment8 of the mis
b1jippi kiveb. But in total disregard of
this important condition of tho contract by
which the company held its right of way,
it permitted the river, which was not at
flood tide, to gradually wash tho levoeaway,
paying but little attontion to tho urgent de
mands of the city authorities and others, to
make at least an iffort to save tho levoo,
which rulj have been accomplished by
tho expenditure of a hundred dollars or less
if the company had acted promptly. But
tho company did absolutely uotbing, and
by its hypocritical promises to do some,
thing immediately, only prevented tho city
from acting uutil alter the lovee was entire
ly cut through and tho building of over ft
wile of new kveo was made uccessary.
Then the railroad company politely inform
ed tho city authorities that it did not intend
to replace fho levee and the latter proceed
ed at ouce to build a uew leveo at a cost of
upwards of twenty-five thousand dollars.
Whether the city had claims upon others
for the cost of this lovee, is neither here nor
there. Tho fact that tho railroad company
treaolieously violated tho most Important
terms of tho agreement by which it held its
right of way into 4he oity, and by bucq" vio-
PROCLAMATION.
KRIS KRINGLE LAND, NOV. 12TII, 1882.
I do hereby appoint Phil. H. San p my agent for tho re
ceiving ol' orders for me, and advise parents to he careful of
poison in Candies that are usually sold for less than price of
good A Sugar. Phil is manufacturing every day and in
vites the public to call and see for themselves how well he is
acting Santa Clans instruction.
We call the attention to an article in the Patterson,
New Jersey paper to a Coroner's Inquest:
"We, the Jury, sworn to investigate tho cause of tho
death of May and Willie Brooks, arc of the opinion that
death ensued from Poisonous Candies that they had eaten on
the night of their death."
Come Everybody and see Candies made. All orders
dropped through mail tilled on shortest notice.
atiou forfeit"d that rig'it of way, is all that
concerns us hero.
The company now obtained a temporary
righ-of-way further inland, but maintained
it track ou that portion of tho levee
which, the river h.d left. But
this temporary right-of-way was on
low giound, was being constantly
a4ied into the r've.r and was overflowed
wheu the river was up. As the river
abraded the Ur.d the tracks of the company
were moved further inland, and when the
river was up over the tracks, operations ou
the r"ad wero stopped. In the nicautimo
the city finished its twenty-five thousand
dollar levee, and tho railroad company
formed a scheme by which it sought to in
veigle the city authorities into t'iving it'
perpetual protection from the Mississippi
river at the sole expense of the j.eople of
tho city. By a trade in which very little,
if any, money was expended, the company
gained possession, not "i'rom the legila
tare," as the post-Dispatch s-.y s, (the legis
lature of Illinois is not iu lite habit of
ijrantiug rights-of-way over the streets of
cities to railro ids or any other corpora
tions), but, from the Cairo Tiust company,
of a strip id' Ind along the iiiri"i b ise of
the city's new leveo. In order to reach
this new right of way the company would
have to cross tho upper end of the princi
pal public avenue in the uty, which has
nearly always served mid dues now serve
as tho principal highway leading into the
city from the county above, and it had also
to cross over (bo city's cross levee. But
without knowing whether the city council
would permit it to cross this highway and
this leveo without any conditions whatever,
the company proceeded at once to form its
embankment along this uew right-jf-way,
bh inside anil outsido of the cross levee.
It seemed very much as though the com
pany expected t'iinirch l ight over the street
and the levee into the protecting arms of
the. city, without the ceremony
of formal permission from the city council,
and certainly without submitting to any
conditions whatever. - In view of this fact
tho council enjoined the company from
laying its track over the street and cross
levee aforesaid, and caught a Conference
with the officers, of the company, for the
purpose of agreeing upon some reasonable
terms upon which entrance into the city
should bo granted some slight compensa
tion to be paid the city by tho railroad
company for tho important priviledgo of
appropriating the perpetual protection
against the river afforded by the city's now
levee. But tho officers of the company
were angry an 1 probably had uo timo to
confer they were brnily engaged in re
organizing tho company under a new
name reorganizing the city of Cairo out of
several hundred thousand dollars cf Btcck
and getting rid of hundreds of other small
er creditors, among llieiu miny widows
and orphans and labors, aud thereby
seeming nearly half a million dollars to
the Holland stuck holdei'3 of tho concern.
After a scries of conferences finally se
cured, iu which the city council gave tho
company to understand t int a fair division,
between tho ci'y aud the company, of tho
expense of securing the company's truck
against all danger from tho river by furth
er strengthening the new levee, was all the
council wanted, a proposition was made by
President Yhitehouo himself, lo the
effect that tho company would do its
share of the work proposed, provided tho
Wabash company would do tho other share.
Tho Wabash didn't respond "within a
brief spice of time'' to this proposition;
but the city agreed to tako the Wabash
company's placo, whic h proffer w us a
haugtily rejected by President Whitehouse,
In other words the city sought to tuku tho
company up on tho company's own propo
sition and the company treated tho otler
with contempt, and now givus out that the
city counsel ''enjoined it Irom entering tho
city except by paying an exborbitaut Bum
fur tho right." Tho silliness of this state
ment will appear in all its force when it is
stated that tho company's own proposition
probably involved a greater expense than
that made by the c ity council.
But seeing that it could not enter tho
city through tho council chamber, the com
pany sought to como in through tho court
home, by setting up tho claim that the
street which it intends to cross, which has
boon and, is still, at times, the only moans
of ingress and egress f.om the city to tho
country above ami vice versa, is not a street
at all and uvtr was; and that the company,
under its new organization, is not affected
by auy legal obstructions with which the
property and franc'iUes t which it suc
ceeded were at the time encumbered. Well,
we shall see what such an apparently ridi
culous claim amounts to; but if the com
pany does succeed iu its dcsigu the coun
cil will have tho satisfaction of having
made a brave tight for the city's rights and
iuterests, against what has probably been
oue of the worst nnnuged, most unscrupul
ous, mot giaspiug and mo-t s'upidly un
reasonable railroad corporations in the
emu try.
We regret the u.'C. ssity which c mipclls
usto lepeit again thee l'arsh truths; wo
feel kindly toward tho little narro-.v-g .ugc,
we are "plum gonu" on if, an 1 we would
look with charity, a sort of forgetting and
forgiving charity, upon all the fillings of
the little road, we would see it grow to
Btroug, liouotahle prp irtion.o, a bleing to
its oivuors and all with whom it cuue in
cout jet. Hut the little roa I is obstn pruus,
or lather its officers are. Just when wo
have enfolded it gently in our futhurly
embrace, danced it on our knee an 1 fe I it
most skilfully aud liberally with with
Lpiragoric and "pip" and all that when
we are about to flatter ourself that we have
succeeded in taming the stubborn little
creature, and are in the act of folding it
lovingly to our bosom, the thing s'uldenly
becomes "rambunksh," strikes the npoon
from our hand, kicks m in the ttomich,
and sets everything to humming au I -us
to saying unkind things. Puii-nce is said
to be one ol the pillars of human peace.
We have been pitieu:;but to much patience
is the viitue of an ass, an 1 we feel Inclined
to exercise our good right bower upon the
bulge of the naughty little ingratc's anato
my and let it squeal a while and
