On Monday night at o'clock am
Officer George Olmstcad arrested one John
Fancn for knocking down, beating aud
stamping Mrs. Moran, who keeps lunch
house at the Illinois Central railroad pas
senger depot. The assault was an aggra'
waited one, and Judge Bird, before whom
the case was tried, fined Farren fifteen
dollars and costs, which amount being I'M
able to liquidate he was sent to the city Jail
for eighteen days.
Mound City has Quarantined against
Cairo, not because she believes Cairo is
afflicted with scourge and famine, but be-
cause failure TO do so would place her out
side the fashion. Now let Mounds Junction
quarantine against Modnd City, Villa
| Ridge against Mounds Junction and all of
them against New Orleans, and the circle
will be complete. 1t will give to them the
airs of centers of population and the reputa-
lion of knowing thing or two.
Dispatches received at the Chicago,
st. Louis and New Orleans railroad Off
ces in this city last evening, gives the fol-
lowing reports of the progress Of the fever
in southern cities yesterday: There were
one hundred and twenty-five new cases at
New Orleans, and tfty.one deaths. At
Memphis there were one hundred and fiji
teen new cases and fifteen deaths. At
Grenada there were thirteen deaths. At
Canton six new cases were reported No
deaths.
Mr.. Hugh Barclay, the venerable father
of Messrs. p, W. ana James Barclay was
sinking rapidly At his home in Rus
seville Ky, yesterday afternoon, and ere
this has probably passed away Mr. P. W.
Barclay reached RuSseivillc in time to be
at his parents dying bedside. The old
gentleman was advanced in years, and
until recent paralytic stroke Frustrated
him, he was hale and hearty and bid fair to
live many years yet. The gentlemen and
their families have the sympathy of the
community in their attlction.
One of the sutferings entailed by the
free use of taras disinfectant is to be OBJ
served in the wrigglings of the poor pigs
who, as they emerge from their wallows,
find their tails curved and fastened to their
backs by the adhesiveness Of the tar. In the
use OF this particular kind Of a dis fleet
ant, we have another illustration Of ''e
heartlcssness of the ricn in dealing tn
the pigs Of the poor Copperas or carbolic
acid would have answered the purpose
quite as well if not better than tar, but the
authorities had to step out of their way to
inflct unnecessary cruelty upon his honors
pets. And still people wonder at the spread
of communism.
Mr.. Summerwell has done more to pro.
tcct the city from eyelj k'ld of sicl' ness,
by thorougbuess in drscharging his
duties, than the quarantine and board of
health combined. We say this in no spirit
of faut-fndng with the board, but because
we believe a clean city is a surer protection
against the ngress of disease than the issu.
ance OF proclamations or system of regula-
tons that discriminates against Democratic
candidates and federal oh.cehodcrs, and in
favor of strange women. When such things
come to pass, we may well doubt the eff
cheney of republican inst tutions and lose
faith in the judgment Of mankind Civliz-
alton is, indeed, failure, Gud the Caucasian
now pales his Intellectual fires before the
favoritcs of the might.
