Eminent Sir Charles W. Dunning, Grand
Junior Warden, is charactior Of eXcep-
tlonal interest, Classical history informs
us that Esculapius whether the offspring
OF the uniaithful Coronis or Crow, and it
matters not which, succeeded in establish
Ing line Of descent which in after ages
indicated its claims to the attention, if not
the welfare Of mankind A few moments
conversation with Or. Dunning will con.
vince the most stupid that he is never dis
posed to underestimate the importance of
the profession of which he is the Egyptian
exponent. He is a medical enthusiast, and
Past Grand Commander Barclay informs
us that he handles scalpel, pills and lotions
with an assurance, determination and aban-
don from which every thing animated re-
coils. In consequence Of this vigorous
practice, he is said to have numerous mon
uments Of his professional career IN and
about Cairo, both living and dead. 1t
seems providential that physicians Of such
energy are located where their services are
in so much requisition.
We know nothing OF his early history,
say for the past fifty years, nevertheless, it
is reasonable presumption that his pres
ent hatred Of rum has its origin in personal
experience too common to be of value il
tins record. He has taken an active in
terest in the temperance reform, as he does
in all propositions to elevate the ethical
character of his race.
Sir Dunning is representative Mason.
With the cares and responsibilities of an
extended practice, the exsctions of public
enterprises with which he is Immediately
identified, he finds time to bestow his at
tention upon the best interests of the Fra
ternity. He is born leader. Although
kind and courteous to all, he is emphatic
in his denunclation of vice, whether found
in high or low places For many years he
has been at the head of Cairo Commandry,
and it is not too much to say that its pres
ent prominence is largely due to his devo-
ton to its welfare

Friend Burnett
From another such winter as that from

exasperahng and diabolical characteristics
of "the winter from which we are emerg-

On the 10Th of November, 1880, the fair
face of our surrounding prairies, the dirty,
unkempt streets, the foul, pestiterous by

the white mantle remained intact during q
maddening interval of $50 days. Even
now, at the close Of the 1jSth day, ridges
and hillocks of snow are to be seen on

the longest, most relentless and merciless
winter this people ever knew.

not say, as hereinbefore observed, that the
temptation to "gush" is quite irrepressible.
But unparalleled as the winter has been,
alike IN severity and durability, the old
man OF 10 years who has not experienced at
least two winters that were longer, colder
snowyer, has not as yet been heard from.

you may choose to put up, that if you call

other year, when he kept the "Red Lion
Tavern" in Sparta, or was doing something
else somewhere else, when for 100 days,
straight along, the thermometer stood at 46
below zero! OF course he'll lie when he
says so; but the disposition of old men TO
place all the amazing things and extraor-
binary happenings of the world, without
the time and beyond the memory Of US
young men, seems to be utterly uncontrolla-

The South and the Carpet Baggers.
st. Louis Republican.

lnS A1lduGlp0l6 L6Lty6F says.
mo hen with one chicken ever made
more noise over it than the South has
done over the handful of Northern set
tiers who, most Of them, in good faith,
and most OF them with money in their
hands to invest in the land, went down
there on an honest errand. or rascals
who made their way South to join forces
with Southern and native 'scalawag'
statesmen, like Moses, in South Carolina,
and Wells, IN Louisiana, the count taken
has been Ike Aaron's rod-it has swal.
lowed up all the rest. Yet these were
elements that would have all the sooner
been detected and put to rout had fair
settlement of honest carpet -baggers been
Hospitality encouraged instead of re-
PEELED.
We do not believe that from 1866 TO
1881 there have been a dozen Northern
settlers who went South ''in good faith
with money in their hands, etc., and
were badly treated by the Southern
people. Such settlers were never re-
garded as carpet baggers, for they came
to stay and to contribute by capital and
labor to the prosperity of the South. 1t
was t'the rascals" whom the South did
not want at any price, and whom she
was forced to take and endure for twelve
long years. And not until the carpet
baggers proper found their occu-
patton gone and so departed, did South
ern prosperity begin. The Republican
party never detected and put them to
route" but encouraged and defended
them to the last Carpet -baggery would
be dominant in the South to-day if MIR.
HAYES had not, under stress of circum-.
stances, adopted the Democratic policy, i
and thereby relieved the Southern people
Of worse curse than war, pestilence
and famine.
