1t is quite miraculous that one or more
OF the daredevil little urchlns who mount
the moving passenger trains of the l. c. and
c. & V. roads, are not torn to pieces, every
twenty-four hours. From the time the l.
c. trains pass the round house until they
reach the passenger depot there is almost a
continuous line OF boys jumping on and of
the cars. Some of these boys are not more
than or years of age. The trains of the
c. & V. are beseiged in like manner; the
only difference being that less number of
boys imperil their lives.
We desire to ask our friend Bouton if
he is willing to risk his reputation for po-
ltical sagacty on the affirmation that the
deputy wardens of our penitentiaries are
appointed by the Governor and confirmed
by the Senatcl If not, why does he insist

Board of Warehouse commissioners, is,
probably, undeniable; but that Cairo is in
deb.ed to the Democratic party for the ap-
pointment OF Mr. Irwin, is not true.

We had the veritable "lightning-rod
man" in the city, yesterday, equipped in
strict accordance with tradition. With
team and rods and all the appliances 10 put
the roads in place and gift
of CAB Of course, that enables
him to convince man against
bis will, judgment and inclination that any
and every house is doomed to inevitable
destruction unless il is made to bristle with
1.-THE doubly corrugated, spiral copper
strip rods" Of which he is the sole agent,
patentee and proprietor The individual
who turns courteous ear to the lightning
rod man might as well Invest at once, for it
will come to that at last.
Our police were Informed, yesterday
morning, of burglary that had been com
mitted in the neighboring town Of Charles
ton, the night before. Sol Rosenstein's
clothing store had been burglariously en-
tered and link trunk, containing four or
five pairs OF pants, several luster coats and
white shirts, was stolen and carried off the
premises. Besides this trunk the burglars
carried away lot Of striped stocks, a sup

Giles, the loss Of which had not yet been
detected. The police were admonished to
look out for the rascal or rascals; but il is
scarcely probable they came in this dircc.

travel between the two points would render
their arrest almost inevitable.
Yesterday morning about 2 O'Clock
