Minerva Hurley, one OF Cairo dis.
tnguished colored daughters, got on a
! terrible bender on Monday night and, it
Is said, threatened to annihllate the entire
lower end of town, but she didn't.
Minerva, however, created considerable
excitement by MASKING a darkey on the
head ANA letting quart or two of blood
out Of him, Minerva Is very bad medicine
when she gets her temple rufled.
A bright and beautiful child shows
in its very expression that its babyhood
was not associated with opium, cordals,
etc, for the continued use OF opium is
antagonistc to health. That valuable
and highly recommended remedy for the
disorders OF babyhood, DR., Bulls baby
syrup, is, absolutely free from morphia
and all other dangerous agents, aud can
be safely employed at oil times. Only
% cents per bottle.
We see by the published report OF
the proceedings OF the NJ. Il. Conference
which closed on Monday last that the
Rev. j. d. Gillian who has been in this
city for two years past is booked for
Cairo and Litchlield both. Private adj
vices however say that Mr.. Gillian goes
to Lltchleld and that Rev. A. i. Morn
son who was stationed at Alton last year
has been sent TO Cairo. We understand
that Mr.. Morrison is an able man and
good minister. The members of the
church here are waiting anXiously %
learn the truth Of the matter.

A very pleasant little affair took

ward, corner Of Walnut and Tenth streets
last evening. 1t was farewell party
given III honor Of Miss Tennie, youngest
daughter Of Mr.. and Mrs. Woodward,
who leaves Cairo on Friday or Saturday
for Ohio, where she will attend school.
There was quite number OF the young
friends OF Miss Tennie, ladies and gentle
men present. \ string band was there
and dancing was the feature OF the even-
ing. Miss Tennie is very pleasing and
popular young lady, and will be missed
greatly during her absence from the city

The correspondent of the st, Louis
Journal, who wrote up Cairo for his pa
per, INDUCED in one OF DR.. Arter's vapor
baths, While he was in the city, and this
is what he has to say about 1t; I'D. L.
AFTER, NJ, ID. Feeling the need of a bath
one day, was directed to the office OF
the above named gentleman. He has
made a specially of this part of hydro
pathy, and consequently enjoyed the
result OF his observation and experience.
1t is one OF those singular, unaccountable
things, that in this climate 50 little atten-
ton should be given to this subject. Its
fact that hundreds die annually whose
lives might have been saved had they
bathed. The imperative law ofhealth is,
"keep open the pores of the skin" Yet
how few there are who obey it. So call
ed Interpretations Of Providence would
be less frequent did people remember and
put in force John Wesley's famous 'in>
junction. "Cleanlmess is next to Godli~
ness" A bath is the first principle OF
health as well as morality, and this is
thoroughly inculcated at his office"
1t will be remembered by the readers
OF the BULLETIN, that some months ago
we made mention of the intention of our
fellow citizen, Mr.. Louis Herbert, to start
club room in Cairo, where those of our
people, who so desired, could go and
spend pleasant evening at a game of
cards or billiards, without being subject
to any inconvenience or displeasure, but
as yet, Mr.. Herbert has not carried out
this intention. lie has not however, Civ
en- up the idea. He is still strong in the
belief that such an institution would be
well supported, aud we are told is think
ing seriously of putting up building tor
the express purpose of starting the club
room. His plan is to furnish it hand
somely, and make it a place that will at
tract everybody. He will then form
regular club, admitting all who may wish
to become members, upon payment of
the initiation fee, ten dollars. lie will
by this means procure as members OF the
club a class of citizens, such us will in.
sure its responsibility. We have no
doubt that such L resort would prove
very acceptable to the people of Cairo,
and profitable to its proprietor.
