ITS EAllLV IIISTOKV.
Thirty years ntro an effort was tot on
fool to build a city nt the mouth of tho
Ohio. Knglish capital to tho amount of a
million and a quarter of dollars was en
listed and somu headway made with the
project. Foundries, saw mills, machino
shops, a dry dock, hotel and other business
and manufacturing establishments wcro
erected, nnd some of them placed in oper
ation. Protective, embankments wero
thrown up, and a city markel out that
comported with the Utopian ideas of tho
projectors. Many hundred acres of land
contiguous wcro bought at extravagant
prices, and made tho basis of a credit for
the company. During a period of two or
threo years that inspired an unduo confi
dence in tho future of tho city, and the
company, believing that tho excitement
had not yet reached its zenith, perempto
rily refused to sell or lease n foot cf tho
land to either individuals or corporations,
for any purpose whatever. In this way
the very element that builds up 'Western
cities was :ut oil'. In time tho Company's
means wero exhausted ; the English house
through which it had negotiated
loans luiicu, ana soon thereafter tho
abandonment of the Co.nDanv'a
works and projects beenmu unovalda
blc. Dunne a succeeding period of four
teen yeart, tho place maintained a stale of
torpidity, interested parties wero urging
the passage through Congress of the Illi
nois Central land grant, whilo others were
engaged in tho work of relieving the city
site of the incumbrances to which it had
boon subjected. Tho passago of the bill
referred to through Congress was tho sig
nal for more vigorous measures. The
property was conveyed to two trustees,
who romoved every shadow from tho titlo
and in tho year 1852 commenced laying
off tho city. By an arrangement with tho
Illinois Central railroad, tho present
levees were, in part, constructed the trus
tees completing them tho whole at ft cost
of nearly half a million of dollars. In
tho summer of 1 B. 1 tho first lot was sold,
and what tho city is to-dfty U the growth
of the intervening period, something moro
than fourteen years. Every vestige of the
original eflbrt to build a city hero lias been
wiped out, Cairo as it stands being the cre
ation of tho time stated.
For tho above facts wo nro indebted to
tho Cairn Bulletin, n widf-awako daily
and weekly, published by John H.Oberly,
Esq.

at least, settled down to a steady prosper
ity, batsed upon a wiso development of
her resources, ti system of judicious city
improvements, nnd upon tho well directed
efforts of a class of reliable business men
to build up n prosperous commercial and
manufacturing center.

To givo somo Idea of tho extent of tho
city Improvements wo givo the following
items from a late report of tho Trustees of
the "Cairo City Proporty Co." There
havo been oxponded by tho Trustees over
$900,000, in cloanlng tho ground and
draining it, in building lovees for its pro
tection, wharves for tho accommodation fl
its commerce and mlscollanoous irr.provcf
inetits. Tho corporate authorities hnvo
oxpended about $500,000 in general Im
provements, and the Illinois Contral Kail
road Company, not loss than $200,000
moro, making tho wholo expenditure for
tho improvement of about 1,300 acres, not
loss than $1,000,000. "While tho matorlal

The facilities which a locality possess for
nanuiing any ol the great stapio produc
tions of tho country, constlluto ono of the
most important factors In its growth nnd
uovoiopnient. Jioro than threo hundred
million pounds of tobacco nro annually
raised in tho United States, and, ns for
well known reasons, ow lork und .Now
Orleans aro fast loosing tho importance
they onco had as tobacco markets, it is not
strange that wido awako towns nil through
tho Interior, aro cacerlvirranpine for nriv-
ilageof handling, nt least, a eharo of this
tremendous production. Individual enter
prise nside, plainly thoso places will best
succeed In tho ruco of competition, that
aro most eligibly situntcd with reference,
to shipments, in tho tobacco growing reg
ions. In this regard Cairo simply claims
a first place and this from no spirit of
arrogancebut only because. Nnturo com
pels her to that pre-eminence. Tho waters
of tho Ohio, Missouri, upper Mississippi
and their tributaries or moro than
twenty thousand miles of navigable rivers
now past ho wharrs. hilo these rivers
penetruto n larco number of tho thirtv-ono
States in which tobacco is being, at pres
ent, raised, making it possible, for them
nil, to be, in ono sonso tributary to hor
makot, thoso rcclons In which tobneco is
n leading stapio of production, are immcd-
iiuuiy aujaccni to vairo.
fctitutlcs from tho Bureau of Agricul
ture, show that tho States of Kentucky.
and Tennessee, Indiana and Illinois, Mis
louri and Arkansas, grow annually
over 130,000,000 pounds of tobacco, or
nearly onc-hnlf the product of tho cntiro
country. A market which is so nearly n
geographical center or this region, and
which offers to tho plantor such cheap fa
cilities for transportation, posscssos natu
ral advantages too obvious, to nood moro
than a mcro mention. Another fact im
portant to buyers is this. Baing a sort of
half-way house, for both tho Ohio and
Mississippi Illver Packets, where they all
stop, theroissuuh competition for tho car
rying trade, that freights, both to Xow
Orleans ana nevr l orK. aro now, ana win
continuo to bo clicapor from thi, than
rrom any othor point on tno rivers.
Such much for the natural advantages
of Cairo fur building up a large distribu
ting market. But thesa without individu
al enterprise nro nothing. To this fact
sho is beginning to wake up. I). Ilurd &
Son, tho energetic proprietors of tho Bal
lard "Warehouse, nro rapidly demonstra
ting that this placo ought to havo nnd can
havo Its proper position ntuong tho great
tobacco markets of tho country. Besides
sending the right kind of men among the
planters, to represent their mutual inter
ests, they issuo n weekly circular, which
gives a, full and intelligent rcstimo of the
market, quotations of sales for the
week, together with such informa
tion nnd advico ns the grower may
need. They also havo in contemplation a
fair, to bo h'eld sometime in June, at which
at least SI 200 in gold will bo distributed
as premiums. "Wu nro glad to bo ablo to
roport that unexpected succes is attending
their cntorprising efforts. Tho opening
sale of this warehouse was on tho Tth of
February last, and up to tho present timo,
Mav Cth". tho receipts have been 425G hbds,
and the actual sales for this year will not'
fall short of seven thousand hlids. Thoro
