STATE DEMOCRAT.

How Cairo got her Bad Reputation.
The editor of the Cairo Times and
Delta, who is trying to write that place
up, thus accounts for her terrible repu-
tation:
Yeas ago, when We first became a
Cairoite the reputation of the place
was decidedly hard. Strangers stop
ping in the place for change Of boats
considered the safety Of their baggage
by no means certain, and their chances
Of escape without bullet hole in their
CARCASS about four to FIVE. Citizens
observing the foolish terpidation Of
such persons would carelessIy gather
about them perhaps lounge on their
baggage; display (accidentIy Of course)
the handle of ten pound cleaver a
ten-inch butcher knife, or the pole of a
Ratchet, partly concealed about their
persons, and commence, with perfect
sang froid, conversation, perhaps in
the following strain:
i say, Bob, were you at the ball last
nightl
Yea. Real nice time, Tom-four
men killed. Help bury 'em this morn
ing. Put 'em all in queens ware crate
and sunk 'em in the Ohio. Sunk
some.'
4 saw the fght-most beautiful
Efe Larkin dropped his 'innards' the
first rake he received from Dad Noel's
tooth-pick. He fickered out laughing
at the pretty lick. All, it was beauti-
full But that internal butcher, whose
wizzen you clipped, hacked, and stab
bed Marks carcass so awkwardly that
| took it to be his first set to- Mark,
poor fellow, did his best, but of course
he couldn't fight in close quarters with
q fence rail-
In this style conversation will be
kept up few minutes, when the party
recollecting that it had been ten minu-
tes since they had 'lickered,' under
pretext Of getting drink would dis
perse. The travellers, perhaps, would
scarcely recover from the horror thus
occasioned, before citizen rolling an
empty barrel by them, would be &C.
costed by another citizen:
Hank, what are you goingto do with
that!'
Coffin, Bill-boy dead!'
oh, get box-be human-here's
one-the very feller.'
Hank measures it-looks puzzled a
minute, then shouldering it, very cool
" rejoins: "Too short . foot, but I'll
bury him decent. You see that can
just saw his legs off," And with the
same indifference that one would ex-
pect to observe where such brutality
is common, the parties would separate
or perhaps take drink, the distressed
father "a with his sons coffin on his
back! Such proceedings, Of course,
would make the very flesh of the OBJ
serving stranger crawl with perfect
horror. They would confirm him in
the belief Of every hard story he had
ever heard Of Cairo; and, of course,
find their way into the papers as facts
for everybody's perusal.
In this manner, Cairo has obtained
much Of her bad reputation.

4 "FINE OLD RUIN" IN VIRGINIA.
A correspondent communicates the
following, under the title of "a Sad
Scene," to the Southern Churchman"
of last week:
"a solitary traveller lately stopped
his horse by the roadside, near the
source Of the Potomac Creek, in Stat
ford County, Va, and fastening his
horse to tree prodeeded to force his
way through thicket Of bushes and
brambles which surrounded the mass
i've walls Of "old Potomac Church"
rising in solemn majesty amid some
giant forest trees, which the good sense
and piety of some honest farmer left as
a beacon to the taste of generation
that IS no more. 1t was a sad scene.
There within a short distance of sever
al small frame houses, for worship,
stood this magnificent old ruin, in sol
itary grandeur, a memcnto of the past.
Washington, Madison and Monroe, no
doubt often trod its courts, for it was
on the direct route from their homes
in youth, and the capitol. Some mas
ter genius had planned and built it, for
even in its ruins, it far surpassed all
other old country churches that we
have seen in Virginia, or indeed in any
State. And it may yet be filled with
eager worshippers, if some pious hand
could be found to reroof its massive
walls. Two thousand peoplee could
find ample standing room within its
spacious courts, whose magnificent
arches are exposed to the combined
efforts Of the weather, the frost and the
outward pressure of a disseeted roof"

LOLA MoNrEz IN LANcAsrER.-A
letter was shown to our reporter, says
an exchange on Saturday, written by
an attachee Of Michael's Hotel, in Lam
caster, to friend in this city. He
states that some time since, the lady
came to Lancaster to deliver her lee
lures. She stopped at Michael's Hotel
took supper and was then shown to her
room by the writer ofthe letter above
referred to. The person opened the
door Of the room and placing q lamp
upon the table, made salaam to the
lady previous to leaving her Alone
Madame Montez stood . moment sur
veying the furniture, and then asked
with contemptuous elevation Of her
pretty nose. "Haven't you any better
room than this I" mo, madame" was
the reply, this room has often been oc-
cupied by Mr.. Buchanan, and he was
always pleased with it" "Pleased with
it, was he? Well, am not. / would
not cut my throat in such a place as
this" With this delicate remark, the
lady founced into a chair with the air
of a person who could buy all Lancas-
ter
