his best Mound City friends may not be
aware of the fact, exerts greater influence
on the Democratic party of the West and
South than any other man in Egypt. He
is always going, always talking, always
writing, and is personally acquainted with
most Of the Democratic editors in the Mis-
sissiPpi valley. He was one of the first
Democrats to throw up his hat for Greeley
and Brown, and is now boiling over with
enthusiasm. He will contribute his share
towards making the Greeley Club Of
Mound City boom.
Our correspondent desired to compi-
ment the "scarred veterans of Mound
City, and the printer made him speak of
the scared veterans" This reminds US
that our friend Mr.. l.. q. Harris once met
with a similar experience in attempting
TO compliment soldier friend in Wiscon-
sin. He wrote: "The battle Scared
"hero," and was shocked to read, 90 the
battle scared hero" Harris is not easily
discouraged, and he returned to the charge.
He wrote q communication correcting the
error and animadverting upon the blunder-
ing typo. The letter was published and
imagine his establishment to read this SEN
tence in his communication = "The prin-
ter has made mo do great injustice to my
gallant friend. He is brave man, and
the printer makes me call him battle
scared heror My language was bottle
scarredr' When we say, that Harris
friend was somewhat given to the flowing
bowl, it will be seen that his attempted
correction of the printers blunder did not
mend the matter.

is only between five and six years since
these gentlemen took hold of the business

dealing, and their custom is still on the in.
cres se. Can any business house in tho
same line, in any city double
the size of Cairo, presents similar ex-
hibitP Is rot such showing stronger
than thousand theoretical arguments of
the commercial importance of Cairo, as
center of commerce, of tho facility afforded
by open navigation the year around. We
presume when We gather up other facts of
like nature, and they become known,
they will as.onish hundreds of capitalists
who have given the go-by TO Cairo, to To-
cate in places where they are doing, prob
ably, not half the business they would have
done in this city.
Further, does not the exhibit intimate a
want-does it not strike every thinking
man that another industry would
find a profitable encouragement here ?
Does it not indicate that Il crockery ware
mandatory is badly needed here. The
material for porcelain ware is all around
us. Within few miles Kaoline, white
clay, and all the accessories are at
hand. The sales would be immediate
and immense, and the profits would be
commensurate herewith. Next week we
shall endeavor to press this and other
kindred matters, and show how contina-
ously and strenuously THE BULLETIN
has ever excrted its influence to make
the capabilities of Cairo known abroad,
and has stuck through thick and thin,
through evil report and through good
report, pertinaciously to the advocacy Of
the best interests of Cairo and her people.

CAsToRIA-a substitute for Caster OIL
family physic which is pleasant to take
and does not distress or grippe, but is sure
to operate when all other remedies have
failed. 1t is a purely vegetable prepara-
ton, containing neither Minerals, Nor
phine nor Alcohol, the result of fifteen
years experimenting ty Doctor Samuel
Pitcher. 1t is perfectly harmless and far
more effective than Pills, Narcotic Sy-
rups or Castor Oil. By soothing the
system it produces natural sleep, and is
particularly adapted to crying or teethng
children. 1t kills Worms, cures Stomach
Ache, Constipation, Flatulency and De-
rangement of the Liver. No family can
afford to BIO without this article. 1t costs
but 30 cents-ask your druggist to get it
for you, and he will always keep it.

OGLESBY'S DANGER.

Ex-Governor Oglesby, the Republican
candidate for Governor Of Illinois, attend
cd public meeting at indianapolis, and
exhibited himself to the people in shame
full condition of inebriety. This is to be
regretted. The habit of drunkenness is
becoming alarmingly prevalent among
our public men, especially those of the
Republican party. We have all seen,
with regret, the fall Of Senator Yates, and
we now contemplate with fearful solicit
tude the downward course Of the Senator
from Michigan, the prominent Senator
from Indiana, Gov. Oglesby and Others
There can be little doubt if Oglesby
should be elected Governor and then step
out Of the gubernatorial chair into the
Senate, that he will be ruined by strong
drink, and go after Yates toward drunk
ards grave and into life Of debauchery.
He is one of the kind Of men who cannot
resist such temptation-a kind hearted,
rough, vulgsr.minded man. We tremble
with solicitude, and appeal to the many
Christian readers Of THE BULLETIN to
come to Mr.. Oglesby's rescue, to help keep
him out of position in which the devil Of
temptation turks, eager to grasp his VIC
tim. Come up, friends Of the good cause,
to this high plain of reform. Sink the
political partisan in the soul-saver, and let
US by q united effort elect Koerner and
thus snatch Oglesby asa fire brand from
the burning.
