Wo learn that J. A. Lynvllle, ahand-
omo young lawyer of Joncsboro, de
camped, a few days ago, with About four
hundred dollars of tnonoy belonging to
his client. He never did nmount to much
as a lawyor, and now. If it should turn out
that ho has fled tho country merely to sink
$400 of other pcoplo's money, ho Is not
likely to distinguish himself even as a
rascal.

Tho "Memphis .Mackerels" confined
in tho calabooso made an attempt night
before last,to break out. They had succeed
ed in cutting a bar off tho iron window
grates, and would havo been at liberty in
hour or two, had not McIIalo heard
them nt work, and whispered in their cors
that they had better stop It. Tho young
scoundrels bad provided themselves with a
bludgeon to knock tho jailer in the head
In tho event of his interference; but that
peculiar individual "came down upon
thorn " so unexpectedly that thev didn't
have time to carry out their programme.
The four Memphis mackerels who
triod to effect their oscapo from tho cala-
liooso Thursday night, succeeded in reach
ing tho now addition to tho building, tho
outor dtor of which ii not yet provided
with a lock. Here they wero met bv tho
jailer, who, pistol in hand, halted them.
One of them mado an attack unon tho
ailcr, but feeling tho cold barrel of a re
volver rammed against his teeth, thought
it healthy to desist. Thev arc desperate
evils, thoso "mackerels," and rnako their
boast that, having escaped from the iron
lined Jails of Memphis and Vlcksburg, it
will bo only child's play to get out of tho
Cairo calaboose. 'Ihat they may be found

Citizens and strangers who havo tested
tho " good cheer " of lho St. Charles, speak
In the highest praise of the landlord, Mr.
F. D. Hex ford, alike as a caterer to tho

courteous and obliging gentleman. He
Is maintaining n first class reputation for
tho St. Charles, feeding his guests bounti
fully upon the very best that U to be had,
and bestowing upon them the thousand
namolcss attentions which onlya man who
really " knows how to keep a hotel can
bestow." Indeed, accepting tho evidence
of thoso who stop with Mr. Rcxford, wo
we do not hesitate to pronounce the St
Charles ono of tho best kept hotels in tho

Qcnoral Raum was In tho city yester

Cairo ond Vincenncs railroad project,
Tho hopo is entertained that something
may bo done to counteract the adverse
action of our County Court, and sectiro
an early resumption of tho work. Our
citizens aro deeply in earnest in their de
sire for tho building of the road, and will
do anything in tho world that men may
do, to bring that much-wUhod-for result
about. "Wo hopo to be able, in a few diiyr,
to announco that, despito tho hostility of
our County Court, and its reckloss disre
gard of public sontlmcnt tho Cairo and
Vincenncs railroad will bo built T Of tho
plan now being matured, it is scarcely

who attend. A small cliargo for

that is creditable to our city, and, slnco it
is kept up without imposing nny burden
on tho public, ovory citizen who CAn spare
