ceeded in maturing. The second was not
as abundant as the first crop nor were the
berries SO large and well developed; but as
to the fact of the second crop, there is no
room for caviling. We gathered few of
the berries only yesterday.
Mr.. f. Davidson came down from
oakwcod yesterday, via the Cairo and
Vincennes railroad. He got off the train
ut Tenth street, and was at once seized by
p violent hemorrhage of the lungs, He
gained point in front Of lannon's ma
chine store, where his wife overlook him
and took him in charge, and where he was
compelled to remain for two or three hours,
least an attempt to proceed should bring
on the hemorrhage again. It was specta-
Gle that excited the heartiest SYM
pathies of those who saw it.
"A. X. and NJ. W, Vickers have estab.
lished a new weekly paper in Vienna, that
certainly commends itself to the patronage
of the people Of Johnson county. 1t is
called The Vienna Times is an eight col,
umn journal, and is particularly devoted to
the enterprises and undertakings, the pub
lie aims and objects of the locality in which
il is published. 1t will be Democratic in
politics, but will subordinate politics to
the great purpose of serving the people Of
Vienna and Johnson county. Such paper,
assuredly, ought to be cheerfully and libcr-
ally supported,
The so-called SUNDAY whisky cases"
have not been Of character, Of late, 10 in
spire that wholesome dread that is essential
to a close observance OF tic law. Com
plant was entered against Ronekcr, before
Squire Robinson several days ago, A change
of venue was secured to ConliNgs, and for
some reason (and of course Il sufficiently
the defendant was discharged without trial.
A former prosecution OF another man, was
unsuccessful, and two or three cases remain
to be tired. But it cannot be denied that
many saloons are closed that were formerly
kept open. Whether or not less liquor is
drank on Sunday, is another matter
The Argus of yesterday evening says:
About one o'clock p. m. yesterday, the
dead body of large white boy was found
by colored man, lying in the pit of a
cattle guard, at crossing on the Illinois
Central r. r. near Beech Grove cemetery.
1t was terribly mangled, one foot being cut
off, the head cut in two pieces and the
limbs and body generally badly cut up.
To all appearances the boy had been run
over by a train OF cars and forced down
into the cattle guard as he lay. Perhaps
he fen from q train, dropping between the
cars. At the time our reporter left the
locality, the remains had not been removed.
Word was sent to Coroner Drake that an
inquest might be held. The body had not
been identified"
The accommodation train on the Cairo
and Ninccnnes yesterday morning brought
in about one hundred and twenty-five
passengers. Ever since this train was put
upon the road its effect upon the business
of Cairo has been noticeable. Many Of the
passengers brought IN, came merely TO see
the city; but much the larger number came
in to buy supplies. An hour after the
arrival of the train, boxes and bundles
marked for, Vienna, Harrisburg, Burnside
and other points along the line, may be
seen piled at different store doors awaiting
transfer to the depot In detail or singly,
these purchases are not large; but IN the
aggregate they amount to hundreds Of
dollars-cnough certainly to torn very
considerable item in the business of the
city.
We tax the columns Of the Argus
Journal for the following: "IIambletoas
Ways have been crowded with business
this week. Hills wrecking boat was here
the fore part Of the week, at work on the
railway tracks extending out-lnto the river.
The river is getting unusually low, making
it necessary to run tlc cradles further out
to take boat, therefore it was necessary
to clear of the mud and other distractions
from the lower examinations of the tracks.
Hill got through and dropped down to
Cairo with his boat Thursday. The same
day the 0uchta Belle was pulled out.
After she gets off the Ways, Halliday and
Phillips whaT-boat No /, from Cairo, Is
to be taken ont. Work is being pushed
vigorously on the transfer boat st. Louis,
also on several barges at the ways"
