None OF the prominent politicians of New
York are members of the society
Officers Hogan and Sheeban yesterday
arrested on Commercial avenue, two ne.
groes who had sold cattle to various par
ties here in town, and whose actions
aroused the officers suspicious. After the
arrest they acknowledged that they had
stolen cattle in Pulaski county and
sold them here, A COW which they had in
their possession is beng held by the Off

Miss Mary Dixon, the elecutioniSt, ar
rived in the city day before yesterday and
will, after few days recreation, give our
people an opportunity of witnessing her re-
markable power. She is from Phlladel-
phia,and was here some time ago,it will per.
haps be remembered, and having travelled
extensively since then has gained an envia-
bic reputation all over the country. The
date of the entertainment will be announced
in due time.
Yesterday morning the st. Charles
hotel was closed and turned over to the
owners. Under Mr.. Robertsons manage
ment it maintained its reputation as a first
class house in every respect and was pat
ronlzed as literally while under his man
agement, as it had ever been in the past.
We regret that so elegant building should
be closed and we join in the hope of his
many friends that Mr.. Robertson may re-
main with us and connect himself with
some other Of our numerous good hotels.
The stOrehouse Of Mr.. John Clancy at
the corner of Twelfth and Commercial has
for some time been gradually moved from
its foundation by the pressure of the earth
walk which the building supports on one
side. City Clerk Foley says that he mott
fed Mr.. Clancy Of the effect the pressure
Of the walk was having on the building
while it was yet time to remedy the matter,
but that his advice was disregarded. 1t
was yesterday found necessary to dig up
the cinder walk in order to keep the build
ing from being showed off its pins.
Mr.. George Woods, thelIshpoe plas-
tcrer who now languishes in our city Jail,
has sent us two very lengthy poems for
publication. He is very good, and we APP
preciate his attempt to assist us in making
these columns interesting, but he must not
ask us to publish these productions OF his |
fertile brain. We will pay his fle, which |
is tfty-one dollars and costs, if he asks it, |
but We must refuse to paralyze the indus
tries Of the world by the publication OF his
poems.
The smokers of Cairo are all, from
youth to the ''sear and yellow leaf" good |
judges of cigars, and they have a greater |
variety and better assortment to choose
from than usually falls TO the lot of 81
dents in small cities. Among all the variety
Of good cigars offered to the public, the
one that seems TO take the lead I'd clay |
over all competitors, is pure Havana
filler, bright wrapper, called the"Faultless,"
retailed at five cents and sold, wholesale
and retail, by F. Korsmeyer Ohio Levee,
corner Sixth street
The trial of Mr.. Henry Floyd for
forgery came up before Squire Comings
yesterday afternoon. A change Of venue
was taken to Robinson aud the case pro-
ceeded. Mr. Floyd was present with his
with his wife and child, the former sitting
beside him and the latter on his lap He
exhibited GOODNESS, bordering on inditfer-
ence during the entire trial, yet he
must have felt deep interest
Messrs. Black and Leck appeared for the
defense aud Attorney Mulkey for the prose-
2ution, The charge was 'uttcring pub
fishing and passing forged orders After
hearing the evidence in the case the Squire
decided in favor of the prosecution, and
held the prisoner to bail in the sum Of two
hundred dollars to appear at the next term
IF the circuit court which meets in July.
A dispatch sent from tins city to the
Chicago Tribune concerning tne Republican
primaries held in this county says that mo
Instructions were given, but it is believed
hat Of the twenty-five delegates selected a
majority favor Blaine for president" We
rive the above as sample
II order to illustrate the reliability of the
dispatches sent to the various large jour
lals. Everybody here knows that the del

hat Blaine wouldn't stand a ghost of a
how for the nonlination if the Alexander
,ounty delegates had the SAY SO" about 1t,
But the matter is easily explained. The
