The Return or the Dove.

Tho Return OF the Dove.
Only waste of waters,
Only tideless sea.
Which is not life, which IS not oeatn'
But death in life to me.
Only the years on-coming
Rolling their silent waves
Over the bygone trouble, 80,
over Lies hidden graves. 4
Only drear out.looking
For hope that is long delayed,
And W. ariful prayer for patience.
And wish that may not be prayed.
Why am ever uatchingP
What can I ever see p
Only dove that is coming
Fro m far-of land 10 me.
Onl, q branch 1t is bringing,
Which tells Of q clearer day,
And bears me promise OF peace and life,
When the waters have pnseed away.

Ferry Privileges.

Jack Hodges and other citizens OF Al
exander county, obtained from the last
Illinois legislature, the ferry right oppo-
site Cape Girardeau, for = period Of five
years. The right embraces three miles
Of the lllinois shore.
One day last week Jack visited the
Cape 10 s'see about the matter" and
rather astonished the natives OF that
burg by the announcement that he con
trolled franchises upon which they were
infringing every hour of the day. The
"Argus," speaking Of the matter, ex-
presses the hope that the conflicting
rights Will not operate to the Injury OF
the city, and suggests the formation OF q
joint stock ferry company, as means OF
reconciliation.
II Is quite clear that Jack has got q
"good thing'' In these ferry franchises,
and intends To make something out OF 1t.
II the Cape ferry company can control a
considerable amount Of the "flthy lu-
cre,n the way out Of their embarrassment
Is open and easy, II they have not the
necessary amount OF the needful abont
their habiliments, they will probably see
Jack up that way before long with a
horse boat SCI wing the double purpose OF
q ferry boat and grist mill.

EXPLOSION OF A METEOR.
A Terrible Report.

About nine o'clock last night report,
not unlike that occasioned by the burst
ing Of steamboat boiler, excited no lit
tie inquiry In our city; and, number Of
citizens, apprehending q steamboat dis
aster, repaired 20 the river to ascertain,
IL possible, II there were any grounds for
their fears. BY the arrival OF steam
boat, o half hour or so afterwards, they
received the assurance that they would
have TO solve In some other manner, the
mystery ofthe report. ..,.,.,
Few persons were out doors at the mo-
ment Of the report. the night being dark,
and the gathering clouds betokening q
storm; but most OF those who where out,
observed that the noise was followed by
light that illumined the whole heavens.
One or two gentlemen Of the city, and q
number OF laborers alsng the line Of the
@. d v. railroad, observed, not only the
light, but observed the cause of IL, which
was nothing less than the bursting OF a
meteor, somewhere not far from the rail-
road crossing of Cache river. The course
of the eccentric body was observed to be
at an easy angle toward the earth; and
when near, or apparently near, the
tree tops, 1t exploded, giving out the re-
port heard and the light seen by so
many Of our citizens.
In . few days We shall probably hear
further Of this remarkable occurrence,
inviting, In the meantime, such facts in
connection thrrewith as may serve to
crafty the curiosity of our readers or
serve the ends Of science.

A sensible Com,nun ity.

Twenty-one business Arms In West
Point, Miss, subscribed for 500 copies OF
the West Point Herald recently, pay
ing 81, 900 for the same, and sent them
out among the people whose patronage
they were advertising for. Those West
Point people know how to support local
paper.
The people of West Point not only
know how to support their local paper
but how to add to the substantial pros
perity of their town. We commend
their example to the consideration Of the
citizens of Cairo, with no expectation
that II will be initiated, but to show them
how they may, ifthey will, make friends
for themselves, for the city. and at the
same time increase the usefulness of
their home paper.

The exhibition by the German Turner's
ut Flora Garden, last night, called out q
large crowd of spectators. A stage was
imp ovised on the platform in front Of
the house, that answered very good
purpose. The tableaux presented con.
sisted chiefly Of human pyramids formed
by the members Of the company, topped
eff alta dazzling hight by little boy.
The effect OF the red lights upon these
was very beautiful.
The German brass band and Wittig's
string band furnished music. The en-
tertainment was prolonged until after
ten o'clock, and, ~ far as We could learn,
was entirely satisfactory. ~

Great demand for "Barretts."
l.bor,ps M..'. Ci,y scrip

l.s5oring men TO whom city scrip Is
due on allowances made for labor are no
q little cxasperated that they cannot re.
ceive II because Of the pointless stub
bornuess Of the city clerk. The comb.
nation OF the city safe was again de-
manded of him this morning, but he per
emptorily refused to surrender 1t, defiant
~ telling the authorities TO Ego their
length" that he intended to retain 1t
until they expelled him from office.
He Is aware that the safe contains the
scrip book; and the scrip to which the
city's creditors are entitled cannot be
issued until the book Is obtained. He
knows that much Of the scrip " due TO
laboring men who need 1t in the pur-
chase Of the necessarIes Of life; yet he
stubbornly retains the com bination, sp-
parently reckless OF the consequences.
The authorities have been lenient and
patient with Mr.. Mockler. 1t now be-
hooves them to take such action as will
assure him that they are at least mas
tiers of their own affairs, and will not suf-
fer the purposeless stubbornness Of any
man to Illustrate their designs.
