 LUCIoUs RoBINsoN.-The De- mocracy of New York have nam- this gentleman as their candidate for Governor, and by so doing the Reform ticket of that State is ap- propriately and excellently com pleted. MT. Robinson has ren- dercd eminent services to his State, and his ability and purity is beyond dispute. A Democrat of the purest type, he has always been known as an implacable foe to fraud and corruption wherever and whenever committed. New York promises 10000 majority for Tilden, Hendricks, Robinson, Dorshiemer, Retrenchment and Reform.
 DEFALcATIoNs BY GRANT's AP- poINTEEs.-We have before us an official report gotten up by Sect'y Bristow, June 18th, 1876, in com pliance with q Senate Rs solution, showing that the Government has sustained loss by the incompe- tency, fraud and stealing of Grants appointees of 5,500O, ,595. This, too, it must be remembered does not include the amounts stolen by the whiskey ring and the officials with whom they con spired, which at a low estimate will aggregate $5O,0O0,00o. Yet MT. Hayes says this is an admin istration to be commended for its honorable work.
 Several gentlemen who have left Hot Springs and settled in this city, since the Morgan reign began, report that the receiver has about ruined the business and prosperity of that once happy valley. Rents are exorbitantly high, and there being no work for mechanics and laborers, they are compelled to seek employment in other cities. This, of itself, is a sad loss to the retail trade.-Ga- zette.
 We can regard the course pur- sued by the government in this Hot Springs matter as little short of an outrageous oppression of in nocent settlers on the reservation, and justlce and right cries aloud for a more equitable and honora. ble policy in this matter on the part of the next Congress of the United States.
 "WE are indebted to secretary of state Beavers for copy of the acts of the last general assembly. Doctor Beavers IS always attentive to the press"
 We notice most of our state ex changes which were Beaver men and advocated his cause prior to the State nominating convention have made similar acknowledg ments for copy of the acts. Ours was a Frolich paper and conse- quently we have not been the re- cipient of any such favor yet. We have no complaint to make, however, and have no claim to any such favor.

"A better government can be secured under proper economy, with all unnecessary and improp- CT leakages stopped, than under q system of extravaganza which tends to make all public officers indifferent and reckless. This is the true secret of administrative Reform. In New York we are running the Government for little more than half what it cost two years ago, and the work is at least as efficiently done." -Sam'l J. Tilden's conversation at Alba ny, Sept. 4.

Howe. Great Lodon show

Many who anticipated big time on
the occasion OF the exhibition OF Howe's
Great London show in this city, were
somewhat exercised on Friday night tor
the welfare OF that institution yesterday.
A heavy rain began falling about 10
o'clock, and continued to come down
at intervals throughout the night. At
daybreak, however, the clouds had all
disappeared, and the sun shone brightly,
and though the streets were muddy and
disagreeable, yet the prospects for an
immense attendance were flattering. At
the time designated for the arrival OF
the special trains which had been con.
tracted for by the managers and agents
OF the show company, large excursion
parties began to pour in from various
towns and villages along the
lines of railroads, and by the
hour set apart for the street parade, there
was perfect jam in all the streets and
on every corner.
The procession was formed at ten
O'Clock, and proceeded to parade the
principal streets. its charlots are Of a
novel and artistic design, superbly
carved and beautifully adorned with
mirrors, gilt and crimson. The cages
are all staunch. well painted and clean
and exhibit none of that filth and care
lessness 80 often to be seen in inferior
shows. The stock of horses, mules, and
ponies is very large. They are all In the
best possible condition, and unusually
spirited.
The procession as it passed through
the streets, threw a shadow of inferiority
over all others of like character evel
seen in this section of the country, and
was viewed by the immense numbers
with awe and delight. The richly ca
parisoned steeds, with their lady and gen
tlcmen riders, dressed in clean and hand
some customes together with the golden
chariots, flags, banners, etc., afforded {
sight magnificent and dazzling.
Now that we have witnessed tn,
greatest pageant we have ever been al
lowed to look upon, We betake our
selves to the tents of the Great London
and after gazing In establishment upor
! the city of canvass before us, and will
high expectations OF the wonders to b.
seen within.
| Nor is our opinion formed by wha
we have seen outside, lessened one jo
by what we witness inside. The Zoolog
ical collection is very fine, and unusall!
large while the great features of the en-
tertainment are the antics and tricks o
the five performing elephants. The.
display intelligence almost human, AM
are truly wonders to behold. The RIM
performance as a whole was excellent
and We speak the verdict Of all, by pro
nouncing it the greatest and the bes
show ever seen here.

The Late Mrs, john II, Rennie.

This estimable lady, who died in this
city last Wednesday evening, leaves be-
hind her large circle OF friends who es-
tcemed her for her many excellent quail
ties of head and heart. and will long
mourn her loss to our community. Her
maiden name was Margaret j. McFar-
rem. Born April 18th, 1927. She lived
through her girlhood at Pittsburg, Penn
sylvania, where she was married
to Mr.. John Il. Rennie on
the 18th of September, 1916.
A few years after marriage Mr.. aud Mrs.
Rennle removed to Carroll parish. Louisi-
ana, where they resided five years. They
then settled in Massac county, in this
State, where they lived until 1862, when
they came to Cairo. About three years
ago Mrs. Rennie's health began to fail.
Mr.. Rennie in the hope that she might
regain her health Travelled with
her to the lakes, and through
New York, Pennsylvania and
Indiana, and lately took her South as far
as Memphis. But neither change of eli.
mate nor medicine could save her lie and
after lingering illness, mOurned by hel
large family and regretted by this entire
community, she passed away from earth
from its cars, its SORROWS and its joys
toilet us hope-s iairer world wher,
death Is unknown and trouble does no
intrude upon the joy Of immortality.

their performances at the Atheneum on
Friday night with "Married Life"
There was very light audience in at

cluded there was no money in further
endeavors to awaken the people of this
city. The company, we are sorry to say,
has lost money at every performance
given here, except on the occasion of
Miss D'Este's benefit, when there was a

deserve, will follow her upon her depar-
