Re-Spenins of the City Hotel

We announce to-day the re opening
OF this old and popular house. Meyer
in its history has its doors been closed
until the past summer, when during
the epidemic its employees exceeded
the number of its guests in the proper
ton of one to nothing. The reader will
doubtless say it was time to close. and
if the reader don't say so, the proprie-
tors did, and the City Hotel went into
the hands of the plasterer. the painter,
the architect, the decorator, and the
boss carpenter. 1t has been complete
| ", but not roughly handled and on
Monday next it's proprietors propose to
show that the treatment has been not
only beneficial to the hotel, but in every
way CONDUCIVE to the comfort and hap
piness of those who may inhabit it in
the future.
The City Hotel is an institution in
which every man from Texas, Arkansas,
Mississippi, Alabama and the Cherokee
nation, not excepted, takes an interest.
We are proud of it ourselves, not on
account OF its architectural beauties,
fer they are of the past. but we like it
for its genuine comforts and hospitals
ties, and as long as it continues in the
hands Of it's present proprietors, Messrs
Mumford & Watson, it will be the re-
sort of those who know how to appre-
ciate good living and Christian happi-
ness.
Reader, the City Hotel is now open.
Countrymen, friends. and fellow-citi,
zens, prepare to meet us there. -Ne,c

The New York Sun has discovered
an outrage that did not occur in the
South. 1t says for months Darke
county, Ohio, has been te1orized by 6
gang of rufians calling themselves reg
ulators. At least two citizens have
been shot dead in their houses; another
q colorod man, has been kidnapped
and nearly dozen others, including q
colored lawyer, have been ordered tc
leave the county under pain of death.
Several of these have done so, so great
is the fear which these lawless desper-
ADDE'S have inspired. Seven of the
gang have at last been arrested and
locked up to await trial; better late
than never. But the rest are still at
large to commit fresh murders.
A. r.. Stewards Grave Robbed.
On the morning of the 7th inst, the
vault OF A. T. Stewart, in st Marks
church yard, New York, was broken
into and the remains of the millionaire
stolen therefrom. No clue to the rob-
berry has been discovered. Mrs. Stew
art has offered reward of S25, 900 for
the return of the body and information
that will convict the parties engaged
in the outrage; or liberal reward will
be paid for information that will lead
to either of the above named results.
The object of the ghouls was money
Depraved must be the wretch that
would rob a grave to obtain gain.

attendant. The patient complains Of
