one change from Mobile to Louisville.
For the special accommodation of the
Southern people, the Bee Line will run
la direct connection with MOT BY way
Of Indianapolis and Cleveland, and by
way of Cincinnati and Cleveland, through
via Cleveland, Buffalo and Albany THAT
cool and pleasant Lake Shore routel, ar
irving in New York at 8 o'clock pm.
Though their leader be In hockelty,
Johnny Rsagan's band-st least such of
them as are not with Johnny, have not
been idle of late. The OOETieT-JoaGrRGl,
Of a late date, gives the particulars Of a
cracking operation performed on Monday
night by four of them-Billy Tressler,
Billy Rily, Dave Cummings and George
Mullen, on the safe of a gentleman named
Speyer, who kept 4 house with s sign of
three golden balls, and who is said to be
an "uncle" of the local editor of the COH-
r~ier-Jour1GI. The value of the stolen
property, which consisted of diamonds
and watches, IL about six thousand dol
lars. The robbers are now all in "quOd."
The st. Louis Democrat of Mon
day says: The Illinois Central,
now running through trains to Cairo
from st. Louis, will shortly have arrange
ments for transfer at Cairo to the Ohio
and Mobile, and this complete route,
level, easy and speedy, will be practically
under one management from st. Louis to
the Gulf. On the other hand, the Iron
Mountain will make connection with
other Southern roads, and will be eventu-
ally pushed forward to Memphis. The
road from st. Louis to Cairo, if urged
forward snergeticallY, may soon become
an important competitor with both the
Illinois Central and the Iron Mountain.
But, best of all, perhaps, when COM
plsted, the st. Louis and Paducah viii
give US a very short, direct, and easily
managed route to New Orleans, and the
St. Louis and New Albany, connecting
with roads running south from Louis
vile, will form a fifth and very important
Southern connection.
Commemorative copied the remarks
Of the editor of the avalanche touching
DR.. Sehon's prayer Sabbath before last.
and credited it 70 the APPEAL, at which
il takes Offense. Ii was an oversight, a
We regret it. We did not "sneer" at DR..
S. or M~ethodism, or any one else, but
only smiled at the delicateness of the
criticism-"a nice essay in the vOeative."
Ii is the prevalent fault Of the modern
pulpit. The APPEAL thinks We ought to
have taken more notice Of the Method1
Conference sitting in this city. We left
the CITY before the Conference met, and
we're absent until our paper of last week
was going TO press. Willnot the APPEAL
excuse rs? We are confident the Metho-
dist Conference will. We now assure our
neighbor that we had o the slightest
thought of ill-win toward tour remark
was a cOmpliment-have never sought to
injure it-sincerely congratulate it on its
success, and the ability with which it is
conducted, and trust that kindly rels-
tions will ever be maintained between
us.-Baptist.
The explanation of DR.. Graves should
certainly be amply satisfactory to all;
and We think we have rather done him a
service than an injury in calling stten-
ton to it, even though a little tartly. We
take pleasure in adding that we reciprO-
cate the friendly sentiments of the distin-
guIshed editor of the Baptist.
