The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1880-08-19

heat, earthquakes, destructive cyclones, ter.
rife thunder-storms and rain.
We have no reply to make to the fol-
lowing from the GAINESVILLE Times concern
ing Mr. Chas. A. Saup, and are firm in the
belief that with his influence cast for Han
cock and English, Ohio may be set down
for the Democracy beyond doubt, in spite
OF the fact that negroes are being daily i'm

Charles A. Saup, OF Cairo, Illinois, is visit.
ing in the city. He was ordered to Ohio
by the National Democratic Executive COM
mittee to stump the state. He will open
the campaign at Hamptown in few days
Mr.. Dick Hurd, who is we'll known in
this city and who is at present on his farm
up IN the county some distance, was in the
city in buggy yesterday evening. He
stated that few days ago, while attempt
ing to break young horse, the animal be-
came unmanagable and, throwing him out
of the buggy to which he had hitched it,
began to treat him rather roughly. In his
attemptto hold it he in some way became
entangled with the horses feet and was
considerably injured, though not serious
ly.
Only a few days have elapsed since
Hon. VIM. Hartzell accepted the nomina-
ton for congress, but already the people of
the district are wild with enthusiasm over
his nomination and voters of all political
opinions are ftocking to his support We
are in receipt of news from all over the
district, from reliable sources, which is
very fattering and encouraging, indeed,
and which points to certain victory in No
vember We have, for the best of reasons,
always entertained the belief that victory
would certainly crown the efforts of the
Democracy this year, but at no time were
we more certain OF this than now. The
news we have received from Pope, Massac
| and Union counties during the past few
days convinces US that Hartzell will be
elected by a majority of not less than tif-
teen hundred.
Being short of news we will be ex-
| cused for mentioning the fact that day
before yesterday woman at Paducah un-
dertook to refrain from speaking for forty
| days A special dispatch to THE BULLE-
TIN, received last night, runs as follows:
'She began at nine in the morning, and at
half past ten her pulse was so feeble from
exhaustion that the physicians feared she
would die by noon. At eleven her heart
beat but twenty-si minute, and her res
pirations were hardly noticeable. Her
friends here urged her to discontinue her
terrible task and told her some gossip
about nelghbor. On hearing it she i'm
mediatey rushed from the house, and, 90
ing across the street, met a lady friend and
talked to half-past six last night, and Is
now fully restored"
The Greenback meeting in the court
house last night was far from being fail
ure. Owing to the extreme heat the at
tendance was not 80 great as il might have
been, but yet there was an audience of
about one hundred and fifty. As in yester-
|
days issue we said he would, Hon. Henry
Winter delivered the address, which is said
to have been an effort Of considerable mer
1t. Mr. Winter is forcble speaker who
knows how to get at the bottom of any
subject, and presents his facts in plain Ian
guage. His words we're well received and
elected appropriate applause. The meet
ing will be repeated down town at the
Tenth street stand this evening, when the
Greenback presidential elector Of this dis
trct, Mr. Steele, will address the audience.
The Democrats Of Cairo should not
forget the free barbecue at Mound City to-
day. People are expected to be there from
every portion of the district and our people
who are within such easy reach Of the
place. should be well represented. Ex-
pensive and extensive preparations have

thought will be furnished by our next
congressman, Hon. VIM. Hartzell, Hon, D.
7. Linegar, Hon. NJ. C.. Crawford and
others 1t would speak well for the Cairo
Democracy if all our clubs, and Demo-
