Tlio Judgesaid Hint Ini'briety that departed
from the path of quiot ami InpfTenslvo
stupidity was exciucuble in a verv ycung
man or editor, but could not bo excused
In men of advanced years. Ho truthfully
remarked, that tlio conduct of tho party
In question had compelled tlio Thalias to
build a ticket ofllce, so that tlio treasurer
might bo protected from buch attrcks, and
that therefore the party were, in dutr
bound to pay for tho cost of the ofllce. "If
I stood In your boots, gentlonion " said
tho judge sharply, "should do so without
a momont's hesitation." And wo boliovo
him. And if we stood in tho boots of tho
men leclurod by the judge, ho would

The Paducah paper says : "A Cairo
pnpersays that Miss nannah Virtue, a
spinster of correct deportment, residing in
that place, has rccclvod and declined no
less thnn thlrty-three offers of marriage."
This is n falsehood. Hannah has never ro

what's tho mattor with Hannah. Our
girls nre not of tho foolish kind who go
back on an offor of marriage, except when
made by a Paducah man.

RELIGIOUS.
Mr. Friend, tho late pastor of tho
Christian church in this citv, is now nt
Lcnvonworth, Kansas.
Every roliglous business man in tho
city, as well as every sinner, will adrer-
tlso In our elty directory. Refusal to do
so will bo regarded as concluslvo proof of
tho truth of the doctrino of total de
pravity. The Rev. D. B. Tumey, tho eccentric
Methodist preacher, continues to sling
about him poetry and prose In n mannor
which is fearful to bohold. His poetry is
worso than Tupper's and his prose would
do no credit to tho column' of tho
Jonesboro Adtertiitr.
Tho most religious person in tho city
is The Bulletin. We beg that tho Sun
will not retort that The Bulletin Is not
n person but n "thing." A cruel rcmnrk
or this kind would wound our sensitive
spirit beyond the nbllty of even Timo to
heal It, nnd wo doubt if Elder, with all his
ehoc-mendlng ability, could heel It.
It is very important thatevcry person
who attends church should do so promptly
fct tho nppointcd hour, so that fellow-wor.
hlpers may cot be disturbed at their do
votions. Any ono who is the owner of
one of Buder Brothers' watches, warranted
to keep correct time, will, havo tho means
of informing himself to a cortaintv ccn
corning tho hour of tho day, and can havo
no excuse for being "behind time" at any
placo or on any occasion.
We wcro instructed to inform tlio
public that Rev. 31r. Mulkoy would preach
in the Christian church Sunday beforo
last, and he did not; that ho would assured
ly preach there last Sunday, morning
nnd evoninjr, and ho did not. Wo deiiro
to jo very precise In the roligious informa
tion wo give to tlio public, so that our
reputation as n religiousjournal mar bo
maintained, but wo fear that mistakes of
this kind will lead tho public to bclievo
wo aro not to bo believed. This would
bo sad. But tlio Mulkoy information was
drawn from n Christian source, and wo
must not bo held responsible for its in
correctness. On Sunday night tho friends of Mr.
Friend held prayer meeting at tho Chris
tian church, tho anti-Friend portion
of the congregation remaining
nbscnt. They hold their prayer meet
ing on Wednesday niirht. If thcro is any
efficacy in prayer, a joint prayer meet
ing, held after tho manner of joint meet-
lugs of tho city council, might do n "power
of good." The burden of tho prayers of
each cf theso belllgoront parties should
bo: "Lord, enable us, miserable sinners,
to forgive as wo would bo forgiven and
to forget m wo should bo forgotten by
Theo.If wo don't quit using our littlo hands
to tear out each others eyes."
Rev. II. B. Thayer preached twlco
on Sunday In the Presbyterian church, a.m.
and p.m. After tho p.m. discourse, which
was able but not up to the ability of tho a.m.
sermon, tho reverond gentleman retired
and the question whs put: "Shall Mr.
Thayer bo called ? " Eighty-eight of tho
congregation voted "aye," nnd two voted
"no. 1 wo other persons, ono a Baptist,
who had no right to vote cither way. and
n sinner voted "no,"nlso. But tho vote
was substantially unanimous. So, wo pre
sume, mis settles tlio mattor. W al.nll
now havoMr.Thayer as ono of our retrular
clorgy, called in tho regular manner to the
ministrations in our midst of tho duties of
tho Christian shephord. Ho will find here
a community which is not bound up in tho
strnight-Jackct of puritanical belief and
practlco, but somowhat givon to tho habit
of courting tho bright side of life with its
smiles and laughter and jovialities ; a little
loose, maybo, in Its religious practices; too
busy to bo very devout, but orderly, sober,
(now let Paducah bowl), nnd liberal with
tlioir means as nny people on tho face of
tho earth. Ho will nlso find in hh own
.congregation some of tho bost men nnd
women of Cairo, and out of it how many
wandering sheep I but nil good fellows
There in ono sheep this is molaphoricnl
of courso which or who has wandered
many miles from the Presbyterian fold
and which or who is making a terriblo ado
In tho religious pastures hereabouts. Tbo
expostulations of this journal, powerful
though thoy have bucn, havo had no effect
upon him. Uo is wnywnrd in his por

White on our way to church on Sun
day night, a sudden impulso solzed us.
Wo would hero remark that such Impulses
oftec seizo us. The ono that enptured us
on Sunday evening took us up into Phil-
harmonic hall and held us thcro miser
able sinner that we aro until we had wit
nessed tho Thalias play tho "roaring farce"
entitled "English." A largo company of
other sinnors wcro also prosent, and seemed
to enjoy tho noting ns much as wo would
havo onjsycd it if wo bad understood n
word that tho actors said. The hall Is
cozy, tho stago not very commodious but
well arranged, tho music of tho orchestra
most excellent, nnd tho acting, n good
Judgo hns assurod us, is fully up tho stan
dard of most of the regulnr theatrical com
panics of tho larger cilic. Wo know that
Jacckel, who did the Jow, acted his part
cxcellontly; that Captain Decker dished
up tho coffin splendid style; that Prof.
Baueman wns n fino young Eng'lsh gen
tleman in pursuit of ngcod-lookiog young
German widow, who wns personaied to
the life by Mrs. Mohner; that Mr. IVetus
was "iiifnu host" to tho life, and .Mrs
Prucss all that cou'd bo dcslrod ns tho
Jew's wife. A good-looking young lady,
whose namo wo do not know, penonnted
the widow's rnnid finely, and, in fact, every
one in tho casto was up in Ids or her part,
nnd had the words of tho play trippingly
on tho tongue. Wo aro betting high on
tho Timlin!.

Tho Rov. M.. Jackson, of tho African
Methodist church, ltt,t Sudy
prenched n very Imprcssivo ser
mon on tho "Evils of Stealing
Bacon." Tho oloquont discourse wnscnlled
out by tho publication in The Bulletin
of tho fact that Henry Bovd. 11 memlinr nf
Jackson's godly flock, had nttcmptcd to
sicni irom 1110 steamer -Jaspor n ennoo full
of bacon. Tho olooucnt dlvlno tnnk r...
bis text " Thou shall not steal.'' He said
this was the command of tho Lord, nnd
should bo obeyed. If an ordinary human
being had said "thou shall steal," ,ho was
of the opinion il would not bo out of order
in a member of his church to lay his hand
on another man's proporty, but no good
Methodist would steal after being told by
tho Lord to let things be. If a mombcrof
tho church should got into nn oflico bo
might stcnl, becauso it wus a question in
serious dispute whothcr it wns bettor to bo
n Christian or n republican, nnd slnco n
porson could not bo tho lntlcr without go
ing for things while In officcj robbing,
whon discreetly done nnd cnrefully con
ceded, might bo tolerated In nn ofllcc-hold-ing
church membor. But, ho added, there
can be no excuso for n hungry nigger who
steals bacon and is caught in tho act. Ho
ought to suffer the consequences and should
not bo allowed to remain In good standing
in tlio church. "Do tho nngels steal 7"
queried tho minister. " No. They nro too
smart. Do tho sornphlm nnd chorublm
nnd sornphs and other celestial human be
ings do thoy steal 7 No. And if they
did, do you think, beloved hearers, they
would steal bnconl Ah, no; they would
go for something else, something liner and
worth more something not mado with
hands eternally in tho heavens." And then
ho prayed that, if Boyd was guilty of tak
ing the bacon, tho lnw should deal with him
relentlessly; but, be added, " blessed Fa
ther, if Hen. Boyd nln't guilty if, good
Mnstcr, Henry didn't take that bacon the
Lord bo with him, and get him out of jail
as He did Peter of old, as UogotDanielout
of tho den of lions and tho three children
out of the fiory furnace. Hire him a law
yer, oh, kind Father, and let me add, that
nil tho black men say Llnegar Is as good n
ono ns can be employed to keep a nigger
out of tho penitentiary. If, howevir, You
havo heard anything egainst Dave tako
Munn. Ono of tho two is necessary to
Henry's good, and both are well posted on
bacon, and Thlno be tho glory, and we
shall wear a golden crown and walk on tho
golden pavchicnt of tho New Jerusalem,
where peoplo or angels don't cat and there
is no bacon to steal, and no jails and no
penitentiaries, and glory hallelujah.
Amen."

Every person in Cairo knows John Cor

Mississippi. He, win born in this city, and Is

vnarn njo, lio atnrtml out Into the world in
search of n fortune and settled at Friar's
Point, whoro ho soon Ingratiated him
self with tho negro population and becamo
a prominent and very activo radical politi
cian. He became an office-seeker, and at
the radical convention held in Coabomn
county, just previous to tho late election
in Mississippi, ho nnd n Mnjor Thomas
Meanoy were both candidates for tho office
of sheriff. Both gcntlemon ran well, and
it was found necessary to tako up a third
man, Mr. Fred. Alcorn, who recoiled the
nomination. Mr. Corcoran then offered
his name for the legislature, nnd, receiv
ing tho nomination, was elected to that
body. This action engendered ill feeling
between Corcoran nnd Major Mennoy, the
latter asserting that n coinpromiso had
beon effected between Corcoran and Alcorn
by which thu former had been elected.
Saturday night, 18th inst,, the two gen
tlemen, Corcoran and Meanoy, met at
Friar's Point, und in n fight which ensued
Mr. Corcoran, tho Memphis Avalanche
says, was severely whipped. Tlio next
morning Major Mcaney hunted up Mr.
Cuicoran fur tho nvowed purpose of again
whipping him. This.timo Mr. Corcoran
was prepared, nnd upon tlio Mnjor mak
ing u bcllgerent demonstration ho drew a
navy-slx and fired three times, ovcry ball
striking tho Major. After boing shot tho
Major walked n short distnnco when ho
foil to tho ground. Ho wai carriol to a
neighboring point and surgeons sum
moned. Tho wounds proved mortul, as he
diedtho following morning. Mr. Corcoran
immediately nfter tlio shooting wont beforo
