is one Of the swcctcst-voiccd and most
cultured vocalist connected with her pro-

needless to add that the Athencum will be
filed, and that those who desire choice
seats should secure them in advance
The House Committee on Appropria-
tons in our General Assembly, have rec
commended the allowance of 1881 to the
city of Cairo TO reimburse her for moneys
expended in fencing the yellow fever ont Of
the city and out Of the State of Illinois
The city kept the enemy at bay, but not
without loss of good soldiers, Hence there
is not we take it, in the whole State oil
Illinois, n single iair-mnded man who will
say that Cairo's claim should not be
raid If there is, he is u small-soucd crca-
turc worthy ofno ones heed
% Captain Boyton arrived at Louisville
Sunday, got into the Suck Of the fails,
turned fourteen hundred somesaults before
reaching Portland, and was there picked up
and omnibusScd back to Louisville, where
he was ionized As lie is travelling ut
about the rate of six miles an hour he will
come floating into Cairo, before many days
pass by, and we won't, all Of US be on the
Levcc to see. We desire to say here, lest
we forget it, that any reports that may get
abroad to the effect that Justus Cunningham
has declined to make the reception speech,
will not be warranted
Some fellow having an uncomfortable
penchant for second hand hardware, en-
tered Mrs. Bribach's frame building, oppa-
site the court house, and removed the lock
from one of the front doors; then passing
up stairs he removed the locks from two
other doors and carried off all three of
them. 1t may be that he believes that
everybody else is what he knows himself
to be, and wants to but his property under
lock and key; or 1t may be that it was
simply desperate resort to supply himself
with whisky money. The occupant Of the
building is expecting him toreturn to carry
off the doors
There are not two dozen white Rcpub-
licans in Cairo who do not believe that
Judge Bird will be bought off, of Colonel
McKcaigs track, by the tender of an Office,
These Republicans understand Republican
nature better than we do, perhaps; but
when Judge Bird solcmnly and publicly de-
carod that there was no gift that
could buy him, we believed
him. 1t was charged in the meeting at the
court house, that Col. McKcaig had said
that all the negroes were purchasable. The
Colonel denied the charge; but Judge Bird
denounced it as Il SANDER upon his race,
If, in the face of all this, the Republican
nrodictinn that how'll he bouoht ont shall
be verified, who shall then say that the race

"Mrs. Hunter sobbed and consented.
After having white colored silk made
up and trimmed with real lace, it was
too bad not to figure as a bride after all.
She married bachelor Bunting and
was very happy.
1t was well, perhaps. that she had not
the fairy gift Of the invisible cap, and
did not put it on and follow Mr.. Buut-
ing to mysterious recess in the rear of
the theatre, whittier he took his way af-
ter parting from the widow on the night
of the engagement.
There he met little girl, small but
old looking, the same. indeed, who had
claimed the Professor as her lost papa,
and this is what he said to her:
"llere is the money l promised you.
my child, and you acted the thing ex-
cellently we'll. | knew that by the effect
you produced. She believes that he's
married man, and he can't prove the con-
trary. | knew you would be able to act
it out when saw you play the deserted
child in the tragedy"
Then one hundred dollars were count
ed out into the little brown hand, and
bachelor Bunting walked off triumphant.
To this day bis wife does not know
the truth, but alludes to poor, innocent
Professor La Fontaine as that wicked
Frenchman.

I Wish He Had Lived.

The other day when burly big driv-
or of cart backed his vehicle up to the
alley gate Of an old house in Detroit to
dump out a ton of coal, some children
came out of the side door. and the driver
beckoned them near and said:
Last time | was here one of the
wheels crushed bit of dog belonging
to one of you. | heard great crying
but | can't be stopping to look out for
dogs on the street."
The children made no reply, but as
they watched him unload the cart they
wondered if he had any little children of
his own, and if he ever spoke kindly to
them. He may have felt the burden Of
their thoughts, for suddenly he looked
up and said
"Well, own Tn a bit sorry and be-
ing as | knew was coming up, [
brought an orange to give to the child
who owned the dog. Which of you is
it 2"
''The dog belonged to little lame Billy
in the house there" answered girl
1T was all the dog be ever had, and
when you killed it ne cried himself al
most to death. He didn't never have
any plaything but that little dog"
And will you take this orange to
him
II can't sir, COS he's dead, and they
are coming to take him to the tgrave-
yard pretty soon.
The driver looked up and down seem
ed to ponder the matter. and then cross
ed to the other house. The little coffin
and its burden was in the front room.
and two or three old women we're wip-
ing away their tears and talking in low
tones. The driver put his hand on the
closed coffin and said
81 didn't know that it was bis dog
| didn't know that he was sick aud
lame. God forgive me if | made sor-
row for him !"
The vehicle sent to convey the body
to the cemetery drove up at that mo-
ment, and the burly big man continued
'1f he was alive I'd buy him any
thing he could ask. | can do nothing
now but carry him softly out"
He gently took up the coffin in his
stout arms and carried it out, bis eyes
moist and bis lips quivering, and when
he had placed it in the vehicle he looked
up at the driver in beseeching way
and whispered
"Drive slow; drive slow He was
poor little lame boy p
The driver wondered, but he moved
away slowly, and the coal cartman stood
in the centre of the street, and anxiously
watched till he was off the cobblestones
Then as he turned to his own vehicle he
said
Il didn't mean to, but wish he had
lived to forgive me p

Political,

In the National House of Representatives,
Wednesday, Alexander Stephens reported
bill for the interchange of subsidiary coin
for legal tender money in sums of $40 and
multples thereof, and making such coin legal
tender in all sums not exceeding $40: but
the morning hour expired before any action
was taken thereon.
Senator Beck has heard the news from
Ohio. But few weeks ago he was threaten
ing the President of the l. ited States with a
stoppage of his salary and all salaries unless
he should sign certain bills now Mr.. Beck
meekly says that he hopes the President will
not veto the bills, but if he should-why, the
party leaders will come together and talk the
matter over. No doubt they will, and a very
solemn little party it will be-

mitted the outrage are known and the facts
have been presented to Gov. Nichols but no
arrests have been made and no steps taken to
undo the work of the rioters. An early exo-
