There comes considerable newspaper
growl about the postal notes. They afford
no security, may easily be lost or stolen,
are a general nuisance, and so on. The
trouble seems to be that people who use
them expect the security Of the postal or
der, which is not paid for or given. The
note is practically as risky to send as a
bank note, but persons who have occasion
to send small amounts of money not in
even dollars yet find them great conven.

Strangers who visit our city now ex-
press surprise at the number of substantial
improvements recently made and being
made. 1t is nothing surprising. The true
Cairoite sometimes gets the blues and looks
down his nose for day or two when some
temporary misfortune threatens, but you
can't down him. If the river rises, the.
levees go one better, and as soon as posi-

terested in the particulars. The interest
ing feature Of the case was the splendid
defense of Mr.. Rogers by Rev. Benz. Y.
George, formerly Of this city. Relating to
this matter brother preacher writes
"Brother George made the best presenta.
ton of the Rogers case that could be made.

tered the case with all the zeal and ear.
ncstness of his nature-am sure he could
not have done better if the case had been
his own. His speech was mastery, indeed
clear diction, fair, full argument, and
sometimes flights of eloquence that were
fine. II was elegant. If Brother George
was at the bar of any of our courts he
would make his mark high up-couldn't
help it."
