CHRISTMAS.
Jtx Oh b.ervnnrein Cc,ro.

We scarcely think that tho Christmas
vance in Cairo or anywhere else. We had
here the usual aggregate Of dtunks, the
usual free lunches the usual number Of
balls and festivals but these being distr-
buted through three days--Saturday, Sun
day and Monday--created less than the
usual sensation.
THE STORES AND SHOPS
Of the city, during period Of weeks, in
dicated tho approach OF tho holidays, by
the attractive "lay-out of appropriate
goods, and few, if any, Of the proprietors
sniscalculated shs character of our market.
No less than So 5OOo were invested in hol-
iday goods. Think of the little hearts and
big hearts that Investment made happy
full of thanks, glal thought. and gratitude
Why, all over the city the'o were bright
faces, laughing ey,s, smiles and gladness.
And the churches-they were not forget
ful Of thef
SUNDAY SCHOOLS.
In the Luthern church u large Christ
mas tree was robbed Of its treasures, and Il
half hundred or more little boys ad girls
were made inexpressibly happy. The
Presbytcrians also provided a Chrisunas
tree, from the green foliage OF which hunl-
reds of presents were gathered for as many
little ones who had assembled TO receive
them. In Che VI. i. Church like provis.
ion was made for "thc lambs, and
Il happier flock than gathered there
yesterday afternoon, has not been seen in
our city in many n day. The Sabbath
school festival Of the Episcopal church
will DO held tomorrow evening, where 1
couple of hundred other littlo boys and
girls will be made Jus. us happy .as they
can be-
THE TURNER FESTIVAL
in Scheel's hall, Sunday night, was very
pleasant reunion, and lasted far in thu
night tho interest Of tho occasion being
kept up till the last.
THE BALL AT THE ST. CHARLES
called out scores Of young folks, and the
unanimous testimony Of the participants
s,.that IL was the ball of the season.

Last week was characterized by wintery
weather OF an unusu,l character. Several
snow storms prevaild, and the cold was
moro intense than it ias bcen for years.
From every part Of he land the tele-
graph brings the news that the cold snap
is not confined to any secion, but is prev
alcnt throughout the whoh country. Tho
weather has not yet had aneifect upon our
market, but there can be n, doubt that 1t
will greatly increase busne within a
few days. The Mississippi, above us, Is
closed-sealed with icc--and.sL Louis cam

fuse all risks. The Nc,r orleans
boats and 6ayges 4ro~ = make Caro-
their pot Il departure, and rates
by rail 20 that point are still so high as %
practically lead TO a withdrawal Of South

The CgmDaign i'm IT. Helena.

A grand Republican mass meeting was
held ut Greensburg last Saturday. A large
number of citizens of all shades OF political
opinions assembled. The Old Line Wings
were out in force. General Sypher, accom-
panied by a personal friend and kelly's
brass band, arrived from Amite about twelve
o'clock. The band was a great attraction
and enlivened the quiet village with in
spring music, to the great delight of the
assembled inhabitants.
At two o'clock Judge J. w. George called
the meeting to order. and introduced Mr. \.
Lewis, who addressed the immense audience
in vigorous and practical manner, for half
an hour after which General Svpher was
presented, amid the cheers of the assembled
multitude, and he riveted the attention of
the people for two hours, by one of his hap
DIV and forcible efforts. The General enun-
ciated and enforced the principles of the
Republican party in manner never heard
before in st. Helena parish. He was list
ened to most attentively and respectfully
throughout, and it was evident that his re-
marks made ii deep impression upon the
honest people who had assembled to hear
the truth.
The old line Wings, of whom the General
is one. were especially delighted, which de
light they exhibited in cordial greetings and
nd-shaking when the speaker descended
from the stand.
1t must be said to the credit Of Green's
burg that there never was a more respect
full and orderly meeting held in any eolnmu-
nifty, which is mainly attributable to the fact
that no liquor is sold in the place. Demo
Gratis do not thrive in such localities. Let
Greensburg be an example to other towns
in our State and they will be blessed with
schools and churches, and the inhabitants
will be prosperous and happy. Great good
will result from this meeting, and we pre-
diet large majority for the Republican
ticket ON the seventh of November.
