POLITICAL LOCAL NOTES.
The Grant and Wilson colored club
will parailo In a few day in full uniform.
-"When tho weather moderatoi Its in
tenso heat considerably wo must liavo a
rousing Grcoloy meeting in this city.
Tho Liboralsof Cairo have established
their headquarters in Winter's block.
They havo nn airy, commodious room, and
proposo to go in for Old Horace with n
vim.
Tho Radical politicians of Cairo wero
on a visit to Anna tho town of Anna
yesterday. Thoy woro anxious to havo
tho Radical convention at that placo run
smoothly, and took with them a good deal
of grease.
If tho Democrats call a county nomi
nating convention will not the Liberals be
asked to participate? If they do partici
pate In the act of nominations, won't they
want a nominee on the ticket? If so,
which offlco will they dotermino to take?
Tho outcomo of tho Democratic and
Liberal conventions held in this city last
Tuesday discouraged our Democratic peo
ple somewhat, but that feeling has already
been dissipated, and the belief is becoming
prevalent that Wall will slido in.
Tho 'Gazette' favors no nomination
by tho Democrats of this county this Fall
wants a scrub raco between Harman,
Irvin and Webb, and whoovcr may bo
trotted out. A nomination by tho Demo
cracy would not weakon thaso candidates,
but if thoy wish a frco fight ao are in
clined to let thum have it. They are tho
doctors.
Wo havo not boon informed whether
tho Elder has accopted tho challenge.
Hg is a fearless man in tho right, but Is so
thoroughly devoted to his church and tho
causo of His Heavenly Mastor, and llko
wise education, that he cannot give much
attention to politics; -hut next to his
church ho loves his country, and wo be
lieve that for tho nonce, ho will put on hi
patriotic armor and advance to battle
against tho mighty man of Grant and
crush him. Wo hope so.

"Corno down Sal,," Is the rofraln of
our favorite hymn ; but tho heat of tho
sun has induced us to cbango it into,
"Como down, Sol." Wo presume the
old boy will not heed us. Ho will prob
ably continuo to sond his scorching rays
to remind us that ho is still thore.
It is so hot that tho men who havo
been stealing tho city sidewalk lumbor and
selling it right undor tho noso of tho city
authorities without protest, havo gone out
of tho business temporarily; and tho peo
ple will make it decidedly hot for his
honor and the council if thoy don't stir
their lazy bones and stop this robbery.
This is the hottest weather of tho
year. Good Lord but it is o Tho sun

Lord but it is hot I Even tho Saratoga

as it catches a glimpse of the sun. Such

A strangor coming to (Cairo, nnd
walking through tho business streets of
Cairo, would naturally bo lod to inquire,
whoro is tho ruat of your city? Cairo be
ing built on u Hat situ, does not show
from tho lovco. But, if tho inquirer
would follow tho directions ho would bo
likely to rocoive, hu would follow iilong
Washington avenue, until hu catno to tho

tho Messrs. II all id ays, Morrison, etc., and

and going along In a north-west direction,
towards tho Mississippi levee, ho would
ceofino brick dwelling houses, surrounded
by llowor and vegetable gardens, fruit or
chards, etc., surpassing his most sanguine
expectations. Proceeding along und strik
ing Walnut street, about Fifteenth, ho
would seo noat now houses, occupied by
tho owners. Going south, on Walnut
streot ho would discover more signs of
wealth and prosperity. He would bo
obliged to como to tho conclusion that
tharo aro in Cairo, far-seeing, energetic
men, possessing pntlenco and moans, who
havo studied the situation thoroughly,
havo stuck to Cairo throughout hor dark
est days, but who uro now beginning to
reap tho roward of their wiso patience

riety of oxprosslon, pleasantness of touch,
oasoof operation, and ull the qualifications
which contribute to tho perfection of a
dcsirublo instrument of tills kind, we havo
full confidence thnt thoy aro unsurpassed
by any manufacture in the coutry.

wherefore thoy are particularly adapted to
accompany tho volco In singing. Theso
organs uro supplied with "Scribnor's pat
ent" qualifying tubes. Through this in
vention an organ having only two sets of
reeds, is as powerful as any other which
has six or eight sets of reeds." 7-13-lw.
