for. The officials of the company here
deny that the company is any way, or to
any extent whatever, responsible for the
circulation Of the "something;" but admit
that Col. Hamilton, superintendent Of the
'very narrow guage" road, offered the poo-
pie living along the line Of his road, in this
county, from Beech Ridge north, free pass
es to st. Louis and the same freight rates
from st. Louis to their homes as has been
charged from Cairo. "But, "says the Cairo
official of the road, "this was not done out
of malice toward Coiro--it was not done in
order to injure Cairo and force her city
council to make concessions which il has
refused to make. II was done as an act of
humanity to the people Of Elco, Beech
Ridge, Hodges Park and other places whose
rail connection with Cairo is broken; who
have depended in the past upon Cairo and
the narrow guage road for their dry-goods,
their provisions and groceries and the feed
for their stock" For this act of kindness
land such it was if the official speaks truly
to the people of the country towns along
the line of his road, Col, Hamilton deserves
naught but praise. If what the publisher
of the Argus assumed to be the truth were
the truth, then THE BULLETIN would en-
dorse all he said, with the exception of the
statement that 'the company (meaning the
present company, of course) agreed to keep
the levee in repair and protect it," which is
not strictly true.

Manager T. w. Shields has concluded

Manager T. w. Shields has concluded
arrangements with Mr. W. M. Tcbin, agent
for the Emma Abbott Opera company, who
was in the city yesterday, by the terms of
which this very popular and famous troupe
will appear upon the opera house stage in
this city on the 18th inst, in the opera en-
titled martha" That the opera house
will be crowded upon this occasion, and
will number among its audience represen-
tative citizens from nearly all our neigh
boring towns, is foregone conclusion
The appearance of persons upon the stage
of the Cairo opera house, whose names and
talent are the subjects of favorable criticism
in all the great cities of the world, must,
of necessity, be great benefit to Cairo
cannot fail to attract the public eye and
command the good opinion Of the outside
world. The opera house will do its share
in the work of compelling the respect for
Cairo of the country at large, and it will be
assisted in this good work by 1.-THE Halli-
day" and the recently established new
manufactories-and other new institutions
which the near future has in store for us.

1t appea.c that an enterprlsiDg re-
frigerator man lives in Philadelphia. This
man proposes to embalm Guiteau's body,
after the execution, and then to exhibit 1t
in all the principal cities of this country,
afterwards taking it to Europe. 1t is said
that an answer to the SPECTATORS PROPOSE
ton has been received from Scoville, say
ing that the relatives of Guiteau are in
clined to think favorably of the enterprise.
1t should be stated, in this connection, that
the Philadelphia man does not intend to
embalm the body, in the ordinary sense OF
the word, but rather to preserve it by cold,
the plan being to carry the interesting sub
iect about in a special refrigerator car
The Philadelphia man has assured an in
terviewer that the cooling apparatus will
be concealed "by silk hangings," and that
the body will be so disposed as to "look as
natural as possible The form will be dress
cd just as in life, and the features will re-
tain the expression they bore immediately
after they become fixed in death. This
will result from the state OF perfect preser-
walton in which the entire corpse will be
retained by my refrigerating apparatus.
The exhibitor further states that he expects
to make nearly half million for himself
out of the speculation and as much more
for the Guiteau family, which he adds, twill
be some consolation to them after what
they have suffered" There really seems to
be some chance that the grotesque scheme
may be carried out, and the awful ofense
to their idea of the proprieties it would
give our stylish cousins, is enough to make
the average American indulge in wicked
wish that the Philadelphia man may sue.

The Argus is surprised now to learn
from the morning paper, that Mr.. Daniel
has done nothing so far in the prosecution
of the work Of building the Cairo water
works, but laying out the ground. And
THE BULLETIN is surprised" to learn that
any one who could read and understand the
English language, as we have some reason
to believe the editor of the Argus is able
to do, should understand any such foolish
thing from "the morning paper" If there
is any one thing, in which the editor OF the
Argus exhibits more talent than most or
binary mortals, it is in understanding"
either too much or not enough Of any GER
tain thing. His understanding partakes
largely of the qualities Of India rubber;
and he has the habit of stretching it or al
lowing it to contract, according to the
dictates Of his prejudices which are monu-
mental in proportions and deep rooted,
asserting themselves in matters OF large as
we'll as small importance, and consistently
ignoring every rule of fairness and any
truth, which may lie between them and
their purpose. If the editor had read "the
morning papers" item through, or if it did,
had by Herculean effort, Invested himself
for the the time being, of his leather specks
and his prejudice, he would have seen that
"the morning paper" said, not only that
Mr.. Daniel had "laid out the ground" but
that he had also Ito use the exact
language of the 'morning paperD "been
visiting various large iron moulding
establishments in the east, with view to
making contract for furnishing the nee.
essary machinery, piping, ETC., for the
water works. He has succeeded in making
contracts with several Of them for furnish
ing different portions of the iron to be
used in the construction Of the works, and
we are left to understand that these foun-
dries are even now at work preparing the
material for the Cairo water works." "Thus
endeth the second lesson" and The BULLE'
TIN hopes, though somewhat against hope,
that it will be better understood than was
the first.

COUNTY COURT.

The case of Messrs. Louis G. and Frank
Herbert was again the order Of business
at the opening of county court yesterday
morning. Eight jurors had been obtained
the day before and @by noon yesterday the
other four were obtained. The names OF
the twelve are; G.. G.. Wickert, Chas.
Hodges, Samuel Burger, Il. p Sturgis,
Chas. d, Young, VIM. Kendall, VIM. Wag-
goner, A. Arnout Frank Koehler, George
Ray, Julius Serbian, John Riley. Court
adjourned about twelve o'clock until 2:3O
IN the afternoon, in order to give those con-
nected with the trial, who might wish to
attend the funeral of Mrs. W. II. Green, an
opportunity to do so.
When court again convened the exami-
nation of witnesses was begun. Mr.. G. N.
Alden was the first witness examined, and
he was kept on the standfor over two hours.
After him DR.. Petrie was placed upon the
stand, and pending the examination Of this
witness, court adjourned until eight o'clock
this morning
There was some wrangling in the evening
over the question of holding night ses-
sion. The court had determined to do 80
in order to insure completion Of the case
on trial by tonight. But the attorneys on
the defense objected, because two of them
had engagements which were imperative
and would prevent them from attending.
But upon promise that they would do all
they could, without compromising the in
lerests of their clients, toward concluding
the case to-day, the court changed his mind
and adjourned over until this morning at
eight o'clock.

MRS. LOUISE GREEN.

The kilograms, which arrived few days
ago, announcing the sad news Of the death
of Mrs. Green, were received with unfeigned
sorrow by the many friends of Judge Green
and his gentle wife. That the sorrow was
genuine, was fully shown by the large at
tendance of relatives and friends, at the
Church of the Redeemer 1t was the last
request of Mrs. Green, ERE she passed away,
in the southern city, afar from home, where
her devoted husband had taken her, hoping
to arrest the fatal disorder that her funeral
services should take place in the Church of
the Redeemer, and be conducted by Rector
Davenport. Attended by her bereaved
husband and two sons, Dr. and Mrs. Green
of Mt. Vernon, and the judges sister, Mrs.
Haney and son, of Bloomington, and Miss
Creary her devoted neice and attendant,
with number Of the most intimate friends
of the family, her remains, in handsome
casket, covered with the most beautiful
floral emblems, were taken from the resi-
dence to the church They were met at the
door by Rector Davenport, who preceded
them to the chancel, reciting the opening
sentences of the impressive services for the
burial of the dead, 81 am the Resurrection
and the Life" The exquisite hymn, "Rock
of Ages" followed, sung by Mrs. w. P.
Halliday and Miss Pitcher, who also sang
with deep feeling, assisted by Mr..
Hacker and Mr.. Beyea during the services,
the hymn, "Lead Kindly Light" and 81
Heard Voice from Heaven" The whole
service was beautifully rendered and well
calculated to impress most deeply the large
and reverent congregation. The Christmas
greens hung in graceful festoons above the
quiet, firm and peaceful face that looked as
if alseep. The flowers, which she loved so
dearly in life, we're about her with their
fragrance and loneliness. The casket resi-
ed upon bier, draped with black pail,
bearing white cross with the initials,

crown of white zapronicas, surmounted by
cross of English violets, was placed on
the head of the casket below it was q
wreath of exquisite tea roses in wax; then
beautiful cross and anchor, in natural
flowers, and on the foot rested another
cross with pure Gala lily for its centre.
The casket was wreathed with the wax like
leaves and tiny blossoms of smilax, and at
the foot of the bier was handsome cross
of immortclles with the name, "Louise
Green" upon 1t, embroidered in white silk
upon black velvet. The cross upon the
altar and the altar ITSELF were draped in
black, which scftencd the Brightness of the
Christmas decorations and accorded with
the solemn and sweet strains of the organ,
and the fearful faces Of those who mourned
for one, "cut down like flower" AT the
conclusionsof the services, the large con-
gregation followed the remains to Ohio
levee, where the steamer was taken, which
conveyed them on their way to Morgan.

Green, where she had expressed wish to

The warmest sympathy Of the whole
community is extended to Judge Green and
his family in their bereavement. "Blessed
are the dead who die in the Lord; for they
rest from their labors." @.

after and the little fellow will be alright

An Elco correspondent of Thursdays
Argus says: Something of the nature of
protest, or obligation is being circulated
and very extensively signed by the men do
my business on this end of the narrow
guage railroad, pledging themselves to
trade no more with the city of Cairo so long
as said railroad is not allowed the privilege
of building its track on good ground, and
above high water, through the city limits
The late injunction, stopping the company
from making permanent and safe track,
has been the source Of great inconvenience
and damage to the people living on the
line of this road. 1t also damages Cairo,
by cutting off supply, to some extent, of
what little produce the people have to spare.
Its earnestly hoped that by another winter
some arrangements may be made to rem

was being circulated at the instence of the
officers OF the Cairo and st. Louis railroad
company, then there would be some ground
for despising the company because of en-
ploying such silly tao tics to force the city
to change its policy toward the company
But it appears that this is not tie case. The
correspondent does not say, nor even insin-
uate, that the railroad company is either
directly or indirectly responsible for the
circulation of "the something;" on the con.
trary he leaves the reader of the item un-
der the impression that ''the something" is
being circulated by some merchant who,
with a number Of other merchants, and
farmers, is dissatisfied because their rail-
road communication with Cairo is cut off.
