THE PUBLIC SCHOOL LIBRARY.

We have been questioned much OF late
concerning the condition Of the public school
library fund and society. E.tceming the
subject one Of at least local concern we reply,
publicly, that the organization of the society
is maintained, and that the delay in establish
ngthe library II not unavoidablc,is justiRablc.
1t is chargeablo 10 two causes the want of u
suitable room, and sufficient amount OF
money TO insure n respectable commence
mer'. These wants are now so nearly sup
piled that more than II few months further
delay will scarcely be cxcusable.
The money derived from the exhibitions
of 1867 has been nj interest, and has thus ad-
ded nearly fifty dollars to the fund. The
amount realized from the four exhibitions
viii exceed seven hundred dollars. This
sum may be- considered rs Immediately avail
able The individual subscriptions exceed
two hundred dollars, and will, when collected
swell the fund To about $3.50.
a catalogue of books has, for some time
bedh in course of preparation and is now quite
complete. The order will be forwarded, we
understand, rs soon as advisable
4 fine room on the third Aoor of the new
school-building will be fitted up for the ac-
commodaton Of the iibFary--the STYLE char
actor and capacity of the eases and fixtures
being now under consideration, This being
the state of affairs, it will not be long before
our school children, and our people generally,
! If they so elect, will be in the enjoyment Of "a
public school library alike creditablo and
| profitable.

THE CAIRO AND ST. LOUIS RAILROAD.

An increased interest in this grand project
has recently been awakened by the close of
the upper Mississippi and the confusion TO
trade occasioncd thereby. a report, wherein
"tRe wish was no doubt father to the thought, -
gained extensive circulation, that the Chicago,
Alton n st. Louis railroad company, deeply
interested in the success Of the enterprise, had
actually undertaken the construction of the
road, and were already engaged in the work
Of preliminary surveys. That the two roads
will have an identity of interest is undenia-
bloi but the reported active operations are
not authorized by anything that has yet trans
pired.
We can say, however, that the Cairo & st.
Louis railroad is a fxcd fact, and will be put
under control before the close of summer. OF
this We are assured, and rs t l. work of no
very great magnitude, it is hazarding very
little of our reputation a, prophet to pre-
dict that through trains will be passing over
i; before the close of the year 1870. II only
remains for the people of Cairo to wait, to be
Of glad chccr--for those good times and
,hings long hoped for, are even now dcscria-

The weather was clear and spring-iise on
Sunday and although the sky has been sone-
what overcast with clouds to-day, the tempe
rature has been very pleasant. The wind
was from they ess during the forenoon, and
therefore We had no fears of rain.
The western sky, old sailors say,
has not been Wet for many day.
The proyerb does not imply that rain never
comes from that quarter, but that it is Of rare
occurrence.
But eastern winds and cloudy skies
Make I'll the creeks and rivers rise"
The Mississippi is rising slowly at St. Louis,
and rise Of several feet is expected from that
quarter,
The Ohio is rising rapidly its whole length,
with twelve feet in the channel at Rittsburg
and ample water for all classes of steamers
from that point to Cairo. 1t is presumed
that the recent rains have melted the SHOWS
on the Allegheny mountains, and if so we may
look for big yuer, but cold weather will GER
tainly intervene to prevent food. When
the Allegheny SHOWS come down early we
may safely count on no disastrous food in the
Ohio during the spring.
The Cumberland is almost out Of its banks,
and the Tennessee will no doubt pour out q
considerable volume of water. We may
therefore look for rise Of considerable mag
nitude at Cairo, but we have no apprehen-

SHOCKING ACCIDENT.
A MAN HORRIBLY MUTILATED.

On new wears eve mr.. II. ii. Spencer $
mill, two miles from Pulaski station, was the
scene Of an accident that shocked the entire
neighborhood. The particulars, as detailed
to us, are as follows Mr.. William Hartman,
one of the employees, desired to put the mill
in motion, and with that view proceeded to
adjust the band on the 1y-wheel when the
tail of his coat was caught up by the tumbling
shaft, which, Mt the moment, was making fully
four hundred revolutions per minute. In the
twinkling of an eye mr.. Hartman was brought
upon tho shaft and whirled beneath IL where
he lodged in box over which the shaft was
revolving. Every stitch of his strong winter
clothing was torn from his body his foot was
horribly mangled and finally twisted from his
ankle his thigh bone was broken; n ghastly
incsion made in his arm, and his whole body
badly cut and bruised When taken out he
was unconscious, but by the use Of stimulants
was soon revived. With the exception OF his
boots he was rs naked IA when he came into
the world.
DR.. Gordon, of this city, was sent for, and
amputated his leg, below the knee, set the
broken bones of the thigh, and did all he could
TO alleviate the unfortunate mans sufFerings.
He dispaired of saving the mans life, however,
feeling assured of irAernal and other injuries
that had not fully developed themselves. His
progncsis of the case proved a true one, for
last night mr.. Hartman was relieved by death
from his suferings.
He was an industrious man, well thought
of, and leaves wife but no children.

PROGRESS or THE THROUGH GRAIN TRADE.

A train Of cars, loaded with grain in bulk,
has just arrived in this city from Cedar Falls,
Iowa, without changed Cedar Falls is one
hundred and fifty miles west of the Missis-
sippi river and furnished us this contribution
through the Dubuque and Sioux City railroad
t. the Mississippi river and thence by Illinois
railway. The success that has attended this
experiment, will insure us further and fire.

Another item of great moment in this con-
nec,ion, is the receipt of an order from New
Orleans, by one Of our leading houses, for one
hundred thousand bushels of grain at Chicago

movement upon which much of our future
prosperity depends, and we accept it as

be realized, if We will only work with will
