Marked Thetiate of the Saloon Association's ball is Tuesday night, February 7th. Tho ladies of Carmi realized $31 1 over ftll expenses from a charity fair and festival given in that town last week, Thursday. The Hibernian ball at the engine house last night wa largely attended and greatly enjoyed by all. -Secure tickets for Undo Tom's Cabin Anthony Ellis have achieved wonderful success. Overflowing houses have every where greeted them.

The aongs, dances and banjo solos of Miss Kate Partington, in her great rolo of Topsv, nightly called forth the moat enthu siastic applause. Several young ladies have concluded togive a ball at tho old Rctorm hall, on Tenth street, noino timo during this week or next. The street or sidewalk committee ol the city council are cordially invited by re sidents on the south side of Tenth street west of Washington avenue, to take a pleas Uro promanade along tho Bidwalk on their street. N. B.

Wear rubber bootB overshoes will afford no protection. At the 1 ast meeting 'of the Cairo Chor al society held at tho residence of Mr. M. Lansden, upwards of thirty new mem bers joiuotl tho society. The question of so curing ft hall in which to hold tho regular meetings of the club hereafter was spokoti Of, snd it is thought that one will bo ne cured in time for tho next regular mooting, which will bo next Tuesday night.

n.i. -1 i i mi acKuowiouges mo re celpt of numbers one and two of Peter Musical Magazine, published in St. Louis It ii ft good work of its kind, each number containing cloven now and popular songs and treatises upon livo subjects concerning music. It is published monthly at tho small price of three dollars per annum. The Ohio river rose ono inch at this point during tho twenty-four hours ending at 1:11 o'clock yesterday afternoon.

It stood at 47.8. But at all points above it has continued to fall. At Cincinnati it fell two feet; at Louisville, six inches, and at Nashville, three feet nine inches. Tho Mississippi was stationary at St. Louis.

A man-holo at tho foot of Fourth street and Ohio levee is in a condition, which might causo a serious accident to horses traveling over it, unless it is soon repaired. The cap scorns to have been so much worn as to fit tho hole imperfectly. Speedy attention from tho street commissioner is uesirab'e. Because of a failure to nnko connections, Judge Qrecn and party having in charge the remains of Mrs. Green, did not arrive in the city yesterday as expected.

But it is thought that they will arrive here to-day, and services will be held at tho Church of the Redeemer this afternoon, about 2:30 o'clock. A committee appointed by the Choral society at its last meeting, to seo what could bo dono toward securing a meeting place for practice, are negotiating with the Temperance Reform Club for tho use of their hall and organ ono night each week, with a fair prospect of obtaining it. The matter will bo decided to-night at the meeting of tho club. Some criticisms are being indulged in concerning tho action of Bailiff Guy Morse in summoning candidates for the jury in tho case ot Mr. Hicuard itz- gerald, tor which there appears to bo no good ground whatever.

The fact that the court, after hearing all the facts ia the case, not only refused to sustain the motion of the prosecution for a change of bailiffs in his case, but also ordered the vanire for the second panel to be placed in his hands for service, appears to bo as strong a declaration that he performed his duties' conscienciously as can be made. The subject of much comment in tho city yesterday was tho failure of the jury in tho Richard Fitzgerald case to agree upon a verdict. The jury was out for nearly twenty hours without anything to eat, and from about nine o'clock Wednesday night, until eleven o'clock yesterday morning when it was discharged, it stood nine for acquittal to three for conviction, and it would have stood the same way until dooms day. Each party was satisfied that it was right, and that it could not conscienciously change its opinions upon tho questions involved. Some important additions and changes have been made in the Cairo Box and Basket factory within the last few weeks, among which may be mentioned a new boiler, a new and enlarged machinery, a new engine house, new road ways and an ingenious contrivance for carrying all offal from the saws to tho furnaces for consumption.

The facilities for work are thus, of course, con siderably increased, and it is probable that this increase of capacity will be convenient when tho fruit trade of next spring begins, if not before. It appears from subsequent develop ments that the negro Stephenson, who was shot by the white man, Willis, near Mr. Thomas Porter's farm, about ono mile abovo the city, Wednesday eveuing, was not quite so severely injured as was first sup posed, lie is not dangerously hurt at all. Tho shot was fired from a gun, and one shot passed through his throat from side to sido and another struck his right temple and glanced off without causing more than a slight skin wound. It is likely that be will bo laid up for a while, of course, but there is no doubt of his entire recovery.

lie remained in the house of Mr. Thomas Porter during Wednesday night, and was taken to his own homo yesterday. Willis, tho would-be murderer, has not yet been captured. Immediately after leaving Mr. Lum.

Styer's house, he made for the Singer sewing machine company's grounds and to the box factory's lumber yard, where he hid until after midnight, and then left the city. His whereabouts had not been heard of up to yesterday evening. Gen. Lewis B. Parsons was surrounded by a St.

Louis Republican reporter the other day and was compelled to surrender considerable information, which will bo of interest especially to our farmer readers, FTM. 1 1 i ne general uvps on a largo iarm near Flora; and, in spito of the almost total lailuro of crops in Southern Illinois last year, made considerable money. Over 1,800 acres of his farm being in grass, was more productive than in ordinary years. Ho got over 800 tons of bay from about 800 acres of meadow land, and sold the hay in St. Louis and further south for from $17 to $22 a ton.

Ho also sold 1,582 bush els of grass seed of tho red top variety, tho product ot ISOacres. Ho is feeding about 500 sheep and 100 head of cattle, notwith standing the corn failure, which was conv pleto. Tho general doubts whether it is generally known how comploto was tho do struction ot tho gram crops in Southern Illinois. Out of 1,000 acres of corn he did not get' over 1C0 nubbins, and from 300 'bushels of wheat sown, ho received only about four bushols to the acre. Oats was however, a fair crop.

The general said that the present prospect for wheat was never better, and that' generally, though they are short of hay and corn, the farmers of Southern Illinois are hopeful of the future. A more than ordinarly interesting meeting was hold in the rooms of tho Woman's Club and Library Association on Wednesday afternoon. Considering the very dis-agroeablo weather the attendance was very flattering to those ladios who, it was known, would present original readings upon the occasion. Ono very interesting paper upon parliamentary rules was read and afterwards made tho subject of a quito learned and spirited discussion, in which a number of members took part. But one of tho principal features of tho literary exercises was tho paper read by Mrs.

II. II. Candee, entitled "Down the St. Lawrence and Through tho White Mountains." It was an interesting word-picture of a journey through a beautiful country by a close observer, who can discover and appreciate the grand beauties of nature; it was well written and well read by the authoress, and well received by the cultured little audience. Besides the literary exercises, some routine business in connection with the library was transacted, and then the meeting was adjourned.

Perhaps tho pleasantest private social gatherings held in this city for some time past, was that held at tho residence of Mr. and Mrs. C. Pink, at tho corner of Ninth street and Washington avenue, last night The night was a beautiful one "overhead" so that it was almost? pleasure to bo out in spite of mud. People from nearly all parts of tho city were present and as a result, the elegant parlors and sitting rooms and halls and dining rooms of Mr.

Pink's residence thronged with an elegantly dressod and a very happy crowd of people, both grown and young. That pleasure reigned supreme it is needless to say, for it will be accepted as a matter of course. Music, song, health-giving laughter and conversa tion, together with an elegant repasti in which ice cream and cake figured con- spiciously, each contributed a full share to the general enjoyment which pervaded the entire party. The young ladies of the Lpis-copal church, under whqse auspices the sociable was given, and Mr. and Mrs.

Pink, the generous host and hostess, have reason to congratulate themselves upon tho complete success of their undertaking and deserve praise for their perfect management of the affair. -Following Uncle Tom's Opera House Co. will next week present the grand est attraction ot the Beason, in the company with Mr. and Mrs. Chanfrau at the head.

Critics all say "Mrs. Chanfrau is unquestionably the queen of tho society drama. There is naturalness in all she says and does. There is no straining at effect, and her acting is(singularly free from the accustomed mannerisms of tho stago. In tho lighter parts ono almost feels that the pleasant animated scene before him is one of which ho is himself a part.

In attention to the minor parts of tho play she is not like most 6tage people careless, reserving her power and strength for the scenes of intense emotion and mission. She is always at case, always graceil and natural. Her repre sentation of grief and intense Buffering is divested of all ranting, and is what we seo in everyday life. To this we may add she is one of the most beautiful women on the stage; ono of those women, who like women, and whom all women who ever do fall in love with other women fall in love with. Mrs.

Chanfrau liven at Lima Branch, aud thither when spring grows greener with the promise of summer she flies like a bird to its nest, and there rests until winter and work in her profession calls her away from home. She is an ar tiste in many ways and among other things designs all hor own dresses. Mr. Chanfrau, like his lovely wife, stands at the head of his profession as our people will readily understand when they seo him in "Kit." A balky horse, hitched to an empty dray attracted considerable attention on Twelfth street yesterday afternoon. Tho animal would not move in any direction, for no other reason than that given by some of tho fair bcx and some jurors for not believing or for believing in a certain way about certain things.

The horse didn't move simply because ho wouldn't move, and no amount of coaxing or whipping would make him chango his mind. Sensible men, who have had experience in dealing with mules and horses and pardon the connection some of tho fuir sex, know that it is a useless waste of timo, muscle, cloquenco and sweetness to attempt to change in either of these an opinion onco formed thereforo Tub Bulletin believes that to whip that liorso almost continually for three quarters of an hour was a sheer waste of whip-cord and muscle, as it only served in the end to prove that tho whipper had much less perseverance, and showed less tact in the management of his Bido of the argument, than tho whipped. In this connection it is not out of place to quoto from a writer upon tho subject of the management of domestic animals in China, who speaks from personal observa tion. IIo says: "They," meaning tho Cltinese, "never punish, honca a mule hat in the hands ot a loreignor would not only bo useless but dangerous to ovcryono about it, becomes, in tho hands of a Chinaman, as gentle as a lamb, and as tractablo as a dog We never behold a runaway, a jibing or vicious tnulo or pony in a Chinaman's em ployment; but found tho same rattling, cneonui paco mainiainou over neavy or light roads, by means of tur-r or cluk-k, tho boast turning to tho right or left, and stopping with but a hint on tho reigns, This treatment is extended to all the animals they press Into their service Often have I admired tho tact exhibited in getting a largo drove of sheep through narrow crowded streets and alleys, by merely having a boy to lead one of tho quietest of tho flock in front, the others Bteadily followed, without the aid cither from a yelping1 cur or a cruel goad. Cattle, pigs and birds aro equally cared for." Mr.Travers Daniel, the gentleman who is ono of tho incorporators of tho "Cairo Water Works company," has not been hoard from within the last few weeks by the city authorities.

His last communication to Mayor N. B. Thistlewood stated that ho had made an agreement with one Mr. Gamble, a capitalist of New York, who would furnish tho funds necessary to completo the work according to his (Mr. Daniel's) agreement with the city council.

Since that time Mr. Gamble has gone on a short tour to Europe, and Mr. Daniel has been visiting various large iron moulding establishments in tho east, with a view to making a contract for furnishing tho necessary machinery, piping, for the water works. He has succeeded in making coutracts with soveral of them for furnishing different portions of the iron to be used in tho construction of tho works, and we are left to understand that these foundries are even now at work preparing the material for tho Cairo water works. It can not, of course, be reasonably expected, that tho preparations for the water works here shall be vigorously pushed before spring; the weather is a completo barrier to that.

Hence, the laying out of the ground, which has been done, will probably be the extent of the preparation to bo made here until Bpring. But if it should be found, that Mr. Daniel has not pushed "with reasonable diligence" the work of preparing for building the water wbrKs, by letting contracts to reliable establishments for furnishing the necessary materials by the time they may be needed, then the agreement existing between Mr. Daniel and the city is self-annulled. That Mr.

Daniel has, bo far, been negligent in the performance of his duty under his agreement with the city does not yet appear. All his communications to the city council so far have been made in good faith, and have been truthful for aught that is known to the contrary, therefore there is as yet no reason for doubting Mr. Daniel's determination and ability (with tho assistance of Mr. Gamble) to build tho Cairo water works as agreed upon. There can be no doubt that if Cairo's water works aro built under, and in accordance with, tho existing agreement, she will have what may be called "a very good thing," for not only are tho works to bo constructed in every as good as any in the country, but the city's interests and the interests of the people of Cairo, are well guarded.

Butjshould there be such a change in the aspect of tho case as will warrant the belief that Mr. Daniel's company will not build the Cairo water works within the time specified, then the city should and will turn its attention to tho several other gentlemen, who have offered to construct waterworks hero in caso Mr. Daniel fails. Mayor Thistlewood has but recently received letters from two different parties, making inquiries concerning the present status of the Cairo water works scheme, and assing permission to mane an oiler in caso Mr. Daniel does not come to timo.

Of these offers the city can avail itself when ever it may appear that Mr. 1 Daniel has been unfaithful to his agreement. PliRSONALS. On Wednesday Mr. and Mrs.

Alexander II. Irvin left for Blue Island, near Chicago, to attend the funeral of Mr. Massy. Mrs. Irvin's father, whoso 'death occurred a few days ago.

Rev. Knnppc, formerly pastor of the Gor man Lutheran church in this city, but now having charge of tho Lutheran church in Paducah, was in the city on a visit yesterday. Mr. Hamilton, general manager of the Cairo St. Louis railroad, was in Cairo Wednesday on business connected with the roud.

Mrs. J. A. Scarrctt will probably go to St. Louis next week on a short visit to friends and relatives.

Messrs. Noxon Ilalley and Toomey having completed thiir contract on' the new opera houso scenery, which has been so much admired, will return to St. Louis to-day. Whilo here, they made a number of very firm friends, who regret very much to looso 'them, and only hopo they will soon pay Cairo another visit. They have received a commission from Mr.

Sadler, of Centralia, to stock his now opera house, which will bo dedicated tho fore part of April. COUNTY COURT. As statod clsowhcro, the jury in tho caso of Mr. Richard Fitzgerald disagreed and thus this case is, for tho time being at least, disposed oi. At too opening ot conrt yesterday morning a motion was made by the prosecution for tho appointment by tho court of a new bailiff to summon jurors in the caso of Messrs.

Louis C. and Frank Herbert. Ono of tho reasons alleged for tho motion was, that tho acting bailiff was favor ing tho dufenso in the summoning of per sons for tho jury. Sevoral hours were takon up in the argument of this motion, at tho end of which time tho court docldod that thoro was not sufficient ground for a change ofhailiffs. The caso referred to was then takon up, tho work of impannolling a jury being the next stop.

This occupied tho balance of tho day, and as only eight had been obtain-cd when court adjourned last evening, this feature of the caso will bo resumed this morning after the opening of court. Much interest is manifested in tho trials by the general public, tho auditory being well fill-cd with peoplo the greater part of the day IMPORTANT TO PILOTS. CUANOB IN HL'IJtS. Washington1 Feb. 1.

The national board of supervising inspectors of steam vessels took tho most important action yet had during its present session to-day. It struck out of the national pilot rules that clause of tho paragraph referring to right of way which gave to vessels "head to head an option as to whether they would go to starboard or to port. Tho section of the navigation law applicable to the matter says that in all cases they must go to starboard. Tho pilot rule and not the law has been observed on the western rivers. It has obtained, too, to a considerable extent on tho lakes and on eastern waters.

Some vessel skippers and owners, however, knowing tho law as well as the rule objected to abiding by tho latter rather than the former. Largo steamers in New York and Boston harbor did not want to moye at the dictate of tug boats, and others wanted all uncertainty in tho law removed. District Attorney Woodford was requested by, some of thcgentlemcn residents of New York last year to prosecute other vessol-owners and captains who had been obeying the rule for violating the law. Instead of doing so District Attorney Woodford laid the facts before the secretary ot the treasury suggesting the abolition of tho rule. When the board of supervising inspectors met in January, Secretary Folger laid this correspondence bctore it, and its action to-day was the result of its consideration of the suggestions therein contained.

Supervising Inspector-Gen- Dumont suggested the change made to day three years ago, but for some unknown reason his suggestion was not acted on. THE "JJ0G." Some day ago Mr. C. O. Patier of this city received a postal card from St.

Louis notifying him that, as he was one of the "300" who stood true to General U. 8. Grant as the noiu'uK'e for president of the United States Tby the Republican National convention at Chicago in 1880, ho would receive a bronze medal commemorative of the event. The medals are being manufactured by Mr. J.

M. Kershaw, an engraver of the St. Louis. There is to be one made for each of the 306 ami a few extra ones for special friends of the general, or friends of his particular champions on that occasion. The medals are of bronze, of an inch in diameter, and about a quarter of an inch thick.

On the centre of tho face is a profile head of Gen. Grant, which is a perfect likeness. Underneath and extending partially around the head is a wreath of laurel and oak. Around this is a slightly raised circle, outside of which is tho record of the Grant ballots arranged in a complete circle, the number of each ballot and the vote cast ht ing set down in a separate space. The record begins at the exact centre of the bottom when the medal is held in its proper position and reads as 1st (ballot), 304 (votes); 2nd, 305; 3d, 305 4th, 305 5th, 305 0th, 305 7th, 305; 8th, 306; 0th, 30i; 10th, 305; 11th, 305; 12th, 304; 13th, 305; 14th, 305; 15th, 300; 10th, 300; 17th.

303: lath. 305: 19tb. 305: 20th, 800; 21st, 305; 22d, 305; 23d, 304; 24th, 304; 25th, 3D2; 20th, 303; 27th, 306; 28th, 307; 29th. 305: 30th. 307: 31st 308: 33d, 300; 34th, 312; 35th, 313; 30th, 300.

Between the first and thirtr-sixth ballots. twhich meet at the bottom of the ring, a star is engraved. After the sevi-ntnnnth. which reaches the point diametrically op posite the star, tho nuiiihers reverse. So hat tho figures can all bo read without turning tho medal around.

Outside the record find along the rim a wreath of flour de-lis is handsomely worked, comolatlnff 1 3 the face. Tho reverse sido is tasteful and chasto. Inscribed in tho centor circle are these words: "Commemorative of tho thirty-six ballots of tho old guard for Ulysses S. Grant for President. Republican National Convention.

Chicago, Juno, 1880." All tho lines aro straight, save the first and last, which curve gracefully in parallel with tho edge. Under tho last tho naruo of a member of "The Old Guard" is inscribed. Surrounding tho lettering is a simple yet handsome border, completing the reverse side. At tho center of tho top is a hole in which to placo aribbou. It is understood that only 330 of them will bo mado.

Chauncey I. Fillcy, J. D. Cameron and Roscoo Conkling are tho gentlemen who have engaged tho work to be danc. Among tho prominent gentlemen whoso breasts will bo graced by tho modal, as shown by tho records of the convention, are: President Chester A.
