CooIic Labor mt the South.

The Legislature of Tennessee provided
for an Emigration Commission, and Rev.
Hermann Bokam is in our city in the ca
pacity of Commissioner. His views Ms
to the real need of the South are correct.
They do not accord with the movement
toward China for laborers. He saws that
the trouble with the South has been the
want of n solid middle class. There had
been until very lately the aristocracy of
planters and shareholders on the one
hand, and the slaves and ignorant poor
whites on the other. No middle class
had existed to carry forward progressive
ideas and insure social md political sta
bility. Hence the war and the great debt
that now oppresses the nation. Mr.. Bo-
kan properly regards the efforts now be-
ing made to obtain millions of coolies as
unfortunate, since they are calculated to
supply the place of the late slaves on the
plantations, and to prevent the building
up OF the much-needed middle class.
He says that the Germans of Tennessee
VIII array themselves against these new
attempts to virtually re-establish slavery.
and it is to be feared that the Chinese
question will become one of great mag
pitude and embarrassment throuchout
the whole country.
MIR. Bokam's labors ore in behalf of
the middle class in Tennessee. He de-
sired to strengthen it by inducing Ger
mans, Irish and Americans of solid cha
racter to emigrate to that State, and to
enjoy the advantages which the recon
struction of her social system and the
consequent development of her resources
will afford. He will extend his opera
tlons to Europe, for the purpose of in
ducing many to embark with Tennessee
for their destination. From 1850 to 1860
the average number of emigrants was
26O, 900 per annum, and for the past
three years it has been about 5000
1t is estimated that they bring with them
money and other effects to the average
value of S100 each, and the productive
capacity of every able-b' lied Immigrant
is worth at least 5000. If we receive
100, 600 able-bodied immigrants per year,
the increase of national wealth from this
source amounts to 500, 900, 600 per an
mum. The average value of the labor of
Massachusetts, by the census of 1860.
was 1920 pei, capita, including men, wo.
men and children. This would make
over 100000 immigrants, worth $66.-
600, 600 year. These immigrants would
give to the South q substantial middle
class, and we hope for Mr.. Bokam the
greatest success in his work.

be let in, and her Senators and Repre-.

emigrate to the old State are now on foot

TERRIFIC HURRICANE.
Trees wrsnchsd from the Ground and
Whtried In the Air, Houses blown
Down, Ae.

One OF the severest hurricanes that
ever visited Southern Illinois, swept
over Ullin, twenty miles above Cairo, on
the line Of the Illinois Central railroad,
on Tuesday evening last.
About four o'clock the residents were
apprised OF the coming OF the storm by a
heavy, dull roar In the distant forests,
and, apprehending a severe blow, Imme.
diately sought shelter. a few minutes
afterwards the wind broke in upon the
devoted village with tornado fury,
threatening, for the time, both loss Of life
and great destruction of property. Piles
Of boards and scantlings were lifted into
the air aud hurled hither and thither,
descending hundreds of yards distant:
trees were wrested up by the roots and
stripped Of their limbs, houses were I'M
rooted aud blown down, fences were
demolished, and for moment II was
believed that the passenger train, with
IFS human freight, would he lifted from
the track and dashed 10 atoms.
Our informan. took refuge under n
platform car, standing on switch, aud
upon this car great timbers were rained
that crushed their way through the floor
as fthey had taken a contract 20 bonn
bard Il until its garrison OF one capi,u.
lated. It
The extent Of the damage done could
not In the hurry aud CONSERVATION Of the
hour, be ascertained In the village, the
store house of Messrs. Hendricks & Cuhl
was blown into shapeless wreck, and
the stock therein quite destroyed The
drug store and Office OF DR.. Victor were
seriously damaged; the front OF J. Il.
Nick's store house was blown out, the
roof OF Mr.. Hicks residence was partly
blown off, besides demolition OF out
houses, fences, etc, forming an aggregate
damage ofthoussnds OF dollars.
The ravages Of the hurricane were not
confined to Cllin. The country for miles
on either hand was swept by It; but we
are not Informed In detail as to the dam
age. The residents all agree that II was
the most destructive and alarming
storm that ever visited the country.

We mentioned tho fact yesterday that
Mr.. Linegar had his pocket picked Of .
nne gold watch, while taking . nap on
the ears this side Of Anna. He discov-
cred his loss on his arrival 1t Anna, and
saw two men Jump from the train, whom
he had occasion to suspect ~ the pur-
loiners OF his timepiece. On his arrival
at Odin he advised day policeman Arnold,
OF this city, Of the facts In the case. Ar
mold repaird TO Anna, where he learned
that two suspicious individuals had been
arrested and searched by the marshal Of
Anna, and turned loose because OF the
absence Of any proof Of their guilt. Ar
mold, accompanied. by the marshal, at
once repaired to the spot where the ar
rest had been made, and searching the
premises closely, unearthed the watch AZ
the root of tree. Then getting upon
the trail OF the rasca!s, they scented them
to Vancil's landing, fifteen miles above
the Cape, where they came up with them
and took them under arrest.
One Of the men is Frank HuI. who
bears the reputation OF professional
pick-pocket. The other gives his name
as Bowman, not because that is his name,
probably, but because IL will answer as
well as any other They were brought
to Cairo yesterday afternoon and are now
In jail, where they will remain until the
Union county grand jury take cognlzance
OF their case.

Young Man Loses saoo.

A few evenings ago young gentleman
from Kentucky, ordinarily quiet,
peaceable and highly respectable young
man, visited our city, and absorbed a
quantity of "benzine." While under its
effects he expressed the belief that he
could beat any man In Cairo at a game
OF poker, ten dollars ante, and manifest
ed an undue eagerness 10 "haul down"
somebody's "pile." Presently he ran
against an individual who was singular
~ avorse to o game, "and tried to beg
OFF, but the young man was importu-
nate, and the game commenced, When
the young man sat down he had $500 In
his pocket. When he got up he didn't
have n cent!
The other side of the story runs thus /:
The Young man was spotted byNa we'll
known gambler In our midst, made
drunk, beguiled into game, and swim
Med out Of his last dollar. The gambler
believing the young man TO be a stranger
Ia the city, loaned him ten dollars, made
him still drunken, and placed him on q
sleeping car Of q train about to leave,
hoping thus to get rid Of him. The young
man was not to be disposed Of In that
manner it seems, and, turning up" the
next day, essayed, by legal measures, the
recovery of his money. We give both
stories as we heard them, vouching for
the correctness Of neither.
