dssccted his vicious soul, the bones Will
be picked clean.
Only one case of drunkenness was tried
in the police courts of the city Yesterday.
What better evidence than this do we want
of the truth of what Upper says about
"gaod in things evil" The weather is bad,
but its good effect upon chronic law break
ers cannot be doubted.
Mr.. Bernard, the saw mill man, has
erected mill outside of the Mississippi
leyee, opposite the oil works and will soon
furnish ii with all necessary machinery and
put it in operation. This will be the only
saw mill in Cairo, but the woods round
about US are full of 'em.
"A citizen of Paducah, who was in
Cairo yesterday, stated that his residence
in Paducah stands in water twenty-three
inches above the first floor. He has been
compelled to live for some days past in
the second story, and he says that a great
many families in Paducah have been COM
PEELED to do the same.
There is something rather suggestive
in the cablegram which brings intelligence
that there are 200 destitute Russian jews
in Hamburg, awaiting assistance to bring
them to America. Every exile from any OF
the old countries naturally turns his eye
toward America. There is no refuge for
the oppressed in the kingdoms of the old
world
From notice elsewhere published in
this issue of THE BULLETIN it will be seen
that Messrs. o. Haythorn and w. A. Sloo
have formed partnership and will TO-
gether conduct the dry goods business
heretofore run by Mr.. Haythorn alone. The
firm is a strong one and merits large share
of the trade in the city, which it will
doubtless receive. Success to it.
| Argus: ''The southern portion of the
C. st. L. & N. o. is badly submerged and
scores of Others are in a similar condition"
The BULLETIN is authorized to contradict
| the above so far as the road Eamed is con-
cerned, and to say that the employees OF the
company here are not conscious that any
portion of the Chicago, St. Louis and New
Orleans road is under water to any extent
whatever. Trains on that road are running
regularly and making BETTER time than ever
before.
The attachment sale of the goods of
Ayinger & Tharp took place at the restau-
rant on Ohio levee yesterday. The stock
consisted mostly of liquors. The whole
amount of the stock levied upon would have
brought about twelve hundred dollars, but
Messrs. Avlnger & Tharp claimed eight hun
dred dollars worth under the exemption law,
and the amount of stock sold therefore
amounted to about four hundred dollars
There were large number of bidders and
the goods we're divided between fifteen
purchasers.
The Anchor Line Company having
hon6red our city by naming their last and
: finest steamer, "The City of Cairo" entire
| ly without solicitation, il behooves our cit
! liens TO bestir themselves and attempt such
recognition of the compliment as the &C.
casion demands and deserves. 1t has been
suggested that Mayor Thistlewood lake the
matter in hand, and that the council take
action and order correspondence with Capt.
Scudder conveying the hearty appreciation
ofour people, and ascertain the probable
date when the grand steamer may be well
coined at our lcvee.
High water has finally also cut of the
Iron Mountain railroad from direct com
munication with New Orleans. Passengers
coming from the south by the Iron Noun
tain and Mobile & Ohio routes must be
taken from Columbus, KY, by the Dun
can, and brought to Birds Point, from
whence they continue on their way over the
Iron Mountain by way OF Charleston, Mo.
Passengers, for the south on the Iron Noun
tain road, come to Birds Point by way of
Charleston, and are taken from there by the
Duncan to Columbus, from whence they
| so further south.
The orchesta which furnished the music
atthe performance of my Partner" at the
opera house Wednesday night, was compos-
ed tirely of home talent and the music was
much superior to that brought here from
, st. Louis the last time. 1t was very good
indeed, which amply proves the correctness
Of The BULLETINS statement Of few
days ago, that Cairo has excellent musical
talent and needs only permanent organi
zation in order that it may be at all times
