A CHICAGO LETTER.
CnIcAeo, his, April 9th, 1881.

CHICAGO, Ills April 9th, 1881.
Mr.. Editor:
If the readers Of THE BULLETIN in Cairo
who are sometimes careless in regard to its
support, and are slow to appreciate the
efforts OF the editors and publisher, in
giving them the current local news, could
be absent from CAIRO about six months and
be permitted to peruse The BULLETIN s
columns every day, as | have done, since
making our home in this wonderful city,
they would realize how important it is to
support their home paper. OF course in
Chicago there are big papers, little papers,
dailies, weeklies, monthlies, &C., almost
without number, but that which we prize
the highest and read with most interest, is
Observation-Disclosures We prize il be-
cause 1t gives us news from what appears to
us still as home, from our old friends, associ
ates and acquaintance. In fact it is like
letter daily, and do not see how people
who ever lived in Cairo for many months
or years, and have removed, can get along
without it. And now, while on this subject,
| will say that under the
new regime The BULLETIN has lost
none Of its vigor, and under the present
management seems to be improving all the
time sincerely hope that 1t is making
money for its publisher, and may continue
to flourish.
1t seems a long time since / have had
the privilege of enjoying little confab
with our Cairo friends, through Its col.
ums; but a winter, such as l never saw be-
fore, and as | hope never to 500 again, has
interviewed, and your humble servant has
put in much of his time in keeping out the
The daily Cairo bulletin. (Cairo, Ill.) 1878-1???, 1881-04-13
Old Times.

1t is really not very long since pros
porous business men were satisfied with
apartments which would hardly suit
well-to-do workingmen now. That,
however, says New York correspond
ent, was before we got into the area of
great milIionaires. There are lots of
folks still among us who remember very
well when the possession OF S200,00
made man nabob. Astor was the
only actual millionaire in the city.
Back in those times it was the custom
Of rich men TO live in apartments over
their places of business. That was
when the stores We're all below Canal
street, and Murray hill away out in the
country. The merchants and lawyers
who lived over their stores and offices
were quite as comfortable there rs the
richer men of to-day living in 100000
mansions up town, The elite of the
city could be found in the neighbour
hood of Bowling Green, and the Bat
terry had greater charms than Central
park has now. Between riches now
and riches then the difference is enor-
nous. One of our present millionaires,
with an extravaganza family, spends as
much money in II year as would have
made permanent family fund in the
old times. 1t is not an uncommon
thing for such man TO lay out $4,000
between New Years and the next
Christmas. In the times | speak of, a
man who could command $4,000 all
told was considered rich for life An
income of $500 or $1,000 a year was
thought enough for any family not Civ
en- to downright extravaganza. Five
or six times that will hardly suffice for
fashionable family now. The world
has changed indeed, and nowhere more
than in Gotham. But in those slow old
times, great corporations were I'M
known, and no man could put millions
in lis pocket by the simple process of
watering stock.
The last time George Washington
was in Wall street that way of getting
rich had not been discovered. 1t was
quiet enough Gown there then, and
neither bull nor bear was to be seen
anywhere about. The statue that is to
go up at the sub-treasury will look on o
scene good deal different from the
one the Father of his country beheld.
If it could get thinking and speaking
apparatus for while it might have
something to say that the bulls and
bears might not like. The making of
the statue is now only question of
time. The committee in charge of the
matter has issued call for subscrip-
tons, and they are confident that
enough M, ney will soon be raised. It
is to be hoped they won't run across any
old curmudgeon like the one who was
asked TO subscribe for the Washington
statue at Union Square. He owned
good deal of property in the neighbor-
hood, and he was told that the statue
would make it more attractive and val
liable. His answer was that he did not
care a d-n about George Washington,
and he wouldn't give blamed cent.

The STRAWBERRY I,usines..

Mr.. W. H. Pillow, the strawberry shipper of
Jacksonville, visited Tallahassee on Friday last,
at the invitation of the LEON County Farmers
Club, number OF the members of which met
according to The notice given last week, and,
without formal proceedings, held long and in
teresting conference with him concerning the
business OF strawberry culture, now in its infancy
here, but soon, 1t is hoped. To become one of our
most important aud profitable minor industries.
1t is impraclcabe, tor obvious reasons, to give
q detailed report of The conference, consisting, as
il did, chiefly of questions and answers and a
general conversation on the subject; and those
who failed through Indifference, negl CT, or for
any other reason-good or bad-io be present,
must be content with the general statement that
the conclusion was manifest that the business
could be made to pay, and pay handsomely.
Those present were greatly encouraged 10 go on,
and feel justified in urging all others who may
be prepared to do likewise, assured that although
nOtvery large quantities can be shipped the pres
ent season, by another year the business can be
made to increase largely and profilably.
MIR. Pillow is gentleman of pleasing address
and quiet manner, and thorough-going man of
business, and seems determined to do all in his
power To develop this great industry. He spent
i'orliOn of the day in forming The acquaintance
OF some of our best citizens, and in The afternoon
took pleasant drive in the suburbs, leaving on
the night train for Jacksonville
