GLEANINGS FROM THE NEIGHBOR.
HOOD.

A party OF men burgariled the railroad
depot at Marion, ILL.,. last week and took
theretrom a quantity OF bottled beer; they
then entered the school house, where they
drank the beer, scattered the empty bottles
and mutiated the school books and furnl-
ture. No clue was found to their identy.
The following account of the Carbonate
fire is from the Observer Of that city and
will be of some interest: "About one o'clock
Wednesday night the usual hour, a fire was
discovered in the old IIord building on the
east side of the square. The first story was
occupied by John Tolcr as grocery store,
and the second story by Mrs. Watson as a
residence. Both were insured and lost
everything, Toler had $1,000 insurance
and Mrs Watson $3.50 on her furniture,
On the north side, across the alley, were
two small buildings belonging to jeremiah
Hughes, on leased ground owned by Lewis
Bristol These were occupied, one as a
meat shop, the other as coffin shop. They
were also burned to the ground There
was no insurance on either of the buildings,
and the entire loss by the fire is put at
$4,000. This fire cleans out the last Of the
old wooden rookeries on the east side Of
the square from Main to North street.

THE WHITCAMP CASE.


Court opened yesterday morning
pursuant to adjournment, at nine o'clock
and all went well until the prosecution
sought to place George Kohl on the wit
ness stand to testify in behalf of the people
when the defense objected, chiefly upon the
ground that his religious belief was not
such as would make an oath binding upon
him. Witnesses were brought to testify
that he had said that "if man dies he
dies like dog" as much as to say that
there was no existence beyond this and,
therefore, no retribution for crimes or sins
committed in this life But the prosecu.
ton took the ground that he (KohD belev-
ed in supreme beng and in retributon
in this life for sins committed in this
life and that, therefore, he
would be punished here if he swore
falsely Counter testimony was also offered
by the prosecution impeaching that of
the defense and was sustained. In this
way and in lengthy arguments by different
lawyers on both sides the entire day was
taken up and it was not until about 6
o'clock that the court decided in favor OF
the prosecution, so that the first thing in or
der at the opening of court to morrow
morning will probably be the taking of
George Kohl's testimony. It's likely that
when this case has been disposed of, which,
it is believed, will be about Wednesday, the
court will adjourn, as Judge Browning was
to open court in another circuit tomorrow
already

COVERED WITH WATER.

Special dispatch to the Globe Democrat
CAIRO, H., Feb. 1s,-A heavy rain has
been pelting all day and half
of last night, and the fiat
lands are covered with water. Bust
ness is almost at standstill on account OF
continued wet weather. The prospects are
for big rise in the river, although it IS
now 40 feet above Ow.water mark.
The above appeared in yesterdays issue
of the st. Louis Globe. Democrat. The
person that was guilty of sending that des-
patch to that paper is one who is either
ignorant Of the true state of affairs, or he is
a malicious and an Infamous falOifyer, in
either case he is burthen TO this com
munity, which it can not afford TO bear and
which it should get rid of at the
earliest possible moment The
truth is that there is no water
in Cairo with the exception of what little
has run together in the low places from
the late rains, and that certainly would not
bear mention, much less justify the
sending of dispatch to st,
Louis such as the above. Again, the
business of the city is and has been all tins
winter better than at any previous time,
Our merchants are all well pleased with
this winters business and our wharves and
railroads have had more than they could
handle every day this year. The author of
the above gross Misrepresentation should
be hunted down and made to suffer for this
act.
