SLOWLY RECKDINO.
Cairo. III., March 14 The Ohio river
fell slightly last night and is still falling
here slowly. The late rains in this sec
tion are supposed .to have run out by
this lime and the rise coming from above
will not materially check the fall here.
T.ds rise on the Mis-issippi, unless v ry
dgh. will not aff ct the stage of water.
The Ohio, being so high, will cause a
iiack water in tin; Mississippi, and this
wit.-r will all run out through the low
la ids of Missouri. Trains from the
noith are all running and al-o from the
-"ith. The wreck on the Illinois Cen
tial betwe. n Cobdi u and Makanda hs
delayed trains some on that road, but
th y expict to have everything going by
oon. The weatln r is cloudy and cold.
The ivi.lth of th" Mississippi river at
the mouth of the Ohio is now about
fi t en mil-s. but this vast body f wattr
is slo vly receding.

they were defeated iu the precinct, we

The sca'es were a success and made
some of the boys wince when tin y found
they had to pay extra for a supper ticket
on account of the wtightof their best
girl being above the standard.
The supper was a fcumptuous affair
and g ive ample evidence that some of (ticl
"wives of veterans" hs;d been looking
after tlie cuisine in a most succ: f.sful
manner. The tallies were pet ilorg the
center of the hall, Mr. Showaltcr kindly
giving the use of his office for prn:lra
tory purposes, or sort of coffee making
room.
The heaviest lady was Mrs. Lydia
New-land, her weight b::ing given out a.s
158 pounds, she took supper with II. Cr
McMik'-n; the lightest lady was Misi
Florence Cooper, her weight being given
as 100 pounds, we believe Ed. Vunatta
had the pleasure of a free supper with
