Paul Bonyton did not start ON his trip
from Cincinnati to New Orleans, on the 2lst

The Union county State guards, here
on Tuesday, were brought to Cairo and
returned home by the Illinois Central rail
road for the extremely moderate price of
scventy-fiye cents per head The reduction
was most liberal and commcndablc. But

and il was further arranged with the man
who gave the supper that while everybody
else should pay 80 cents for supper, the
Union county visitors should DC fed for p
cents. The Knight, who became appriscd
of the misunderstanding at too late an hour
TO correct it. are especially DESTROYS that
