twice AS much as he had expected.
-Chas. Read and Ernest Chase are the
names given by the brace OF darkies who
were arrested Thursday, to answer charge
of miscellaneous larceny. A third darkey
named Alexander Byass turned States evil
dence, and made clean breast to Squire
Robinson, yesterday, fastening upon them
the theft Of Korsmeyer's tobacco and
Blacks boots. In the former case they
were held in bends of 5000; and in the lat
ter case 800. Both Of them were commit
ed to Jail.
The County Commissioners were en-
gagged, yesterday, IN the consideration OF
business that originated in or more directly
affects the country portion of the county
They will, most likely, conflne Themselves
chiefly, to this line of duty; as it comes d.
rectly under their supervision, whereas
Cairo business does not. As Mr.. Halliday
has usually looked after the Cairo branch
of the service the consideration of matters
connected Herewith that present any com
plicationS, will be postponed until that gen
tleman returns home.
A Mexican half dollar, the same size
of the American coin and milled the
same, is in circulation, and rs
frequently given out and received as
30 cents As its commercial value is only
40 cents, 1t behooyes printers and other
business men who handle large sums of
money, to keep lookout for it, Some
constituencies rascal passed one Of them
on the writer hereof, few days ago; and
what makes The matter exasperating is that
his efforts to "shove it" as half dollar,
have invariably resulted in humiliating
failure.

the city, succeeded, yesterday, in organizing

The De!ta City Se.eladers i The name
Of number Of Cairo co.ored boys, who pro
pose TO give minstrel entertainment soon,
with view, Is they say, Of bcneftiDg the
young mems literary association. The
troupe has issued Its programme in profe.
sional form, has rehearsed with much in
dustry, and, it is said by those who have
caught a glimpse Of the performances
that many OF the features were really good,
and that at least three OF the boys betray
unusual talent-we refer to Tanner, hrown
and Ross, II the boys really have literary
society, and honestly desire to put money in
It's treasury, they deserve encouragement.
II, however, the purpose is TO get pocket
money to waste in nocturnal dissipation, it
will be a kindness TO them to "stop their
show" and close their shebang.
