WINGS AND FREE soILERs.

Our opinion has been asked upon an i'm
por,ant question now pending 10 our State
the union, or coalition Of the Wing and
Free Soil parties in Iowa. We have ob-
served several articles upon the subject in
our State exchanges, hu, gave them slight
attention as we considered the matter i'm,
practicable. Our opinion will be as briefly
as decidedly expressed. 1.-THE Free Sellers
Of Iowa can place themselves upon the
Wing platform and act with tha. party in
opposing Locoioco supremacy-the mos.
potent advocate Of slayery-we welcome
them 10 our ranks. Bat rather than '.bate
iot or title" Of iha sentiments held 10 com
mon with the great Wing party, we would
suffer ourse!f to be in the minority for all
time TO come.

WHAT OTHERS THINK OF IT.

We are indebte{io Hon. JAS. GRANT 70
the use Of lo:l< p prominent Ensi
neer, who visited fms portion OF the Yves
= ,hor, time since. The writer dis
courses thus iu;eliigeni.y Of Western Rail
roads, and Of the prospect of the Rock IS
land and Lasallc Road forming a lnk 10
the great chain that must belt our CONT
neni:-
uThe Miiwauhieans claim tina, theirs is TIE
road, So much does self-interest blind the ms or-
iiy OF mankind; It's true that as far as relates 10
the interior OF Wisconsin their Railroad will do a
large business, but to imagine that the great lines
now the favorite obiec, OF The times, is TO follow
The shore Of Lake Michigan to Milwaukee thence
through Madison 10 Potosi and through the
Northern part Of iowa, is 100 absurd TO think Of
and VET hear il talked of with the utmost grav
i.y. bv men who one would suppose had too
much intelligence TO believe it. Many Of the
people in Chicago also know no better than TO
suppose tina, the Galena Road is the foundation
on which Mr.. Whitney is TO erect the superstruc-
ture. Tne population of Davenport and Rock
Island are no doubt as fond of their own interests
as other people, but fortunately for them they
have only TO open their eyes 10 the iruth--a
glance at the map with general knowledge Of
the country carries confidence and conviction to
the mind. The arguments in favor Of your en-
terprise, and tha. il will form eventually the
main avenue from the Mississippi 10 the Lake,
when confirmed by survey would be irresistible;
but you are rendering the result still more GER
tain by the active and energetic measures you
are now taking.''

We learn from the last number Of the Liberia
Advocate. that Mr.. BENJAMIN G. STANTON, OF
Marine, in this county, who departed this life on
the 9th of December last, left the bulk Of his es-
tate to the American Colonization Society. The
deceased was member ofthe Society of Friends
and well-known in this vicinity as a successful
breeder and introducer of blooded stock in this
State and Missour.-.4lon Telegraph.
What! "Uncle Ben PIT must be. Fare
thee well, then, "long Ben," we know not
that thou hadst gone to thy home. Few
depart ihither with brighter prospects Of q
happy future than thou didst. Opposed te
slavery during life, without wife or little
ones, consis,en, in death, thou hast left thy
wealth where alone il would benefit the en-
shaved.

BRANCH RAILROADS.

Tho completion of the Rock Island and
La,allc Railroad will enhance the value o.
every acre Of land in Scott county. 10 'hls
way the farming community will DO bene-
fite,I. Il will furnish market tor every
article Of produce that they raise upon Their
farms. Wheat, corn, oats. potatoes, cab
bace, turnps, all viii find cash market at
their doors. And thus will our farmers be
benefited, and not only those Of this coun-
~ alone, but of al the adjacent counties
Three years will not elapse from the com
ple,ion Of the above work before Raiiroad
will be constructed from LIE Claire to THU
place, connecting us Immediately with the
northern portion Of our county. We rea
son from that which has transpired wherev
or Railroads have been constructed.
A Railroad now in operation in indiana
from Madison TO indianapolis, about eighty
miles 10 length, has branches running Y
different small towns, in the aggregate
nearly two hundred miles longer than the
main Road. One or two Of these branches
sre almost as long as the trunk, while 9th
ers are quite short. How long then do you
suppose i, would be aaer the completion Of
the LasalIe Road, before branch would
connect us with To Claire? Not over two
or three years at furihest. If the citizens
Of LIE Claire wonld Immediately benefit,
themselves and build up their town, they
should contribute all in their power to fur
Their tbs work SO molly begun By the ciii-
gems Of this portion Of Scott county.

MaKE.A NoTE or 1.-THE universally recogni-
zed Wing doctrine now is that s.to the rictors be-
long the spoi,s.'' Anything to the contrary is
eresy.-Dubuque Express.
1t is ,rorthy of note to see Locolocos for.
sake their principles one after another, de.
ny that they ever protested them and en-
deavor to father them upon the Wing par
~! Didn't John G. Calhoun say long ago,
that the Locofoco party was kept together
"by the cohesive power Of public plunder?''
Certainly, and no one better than himself
unless it be John Wentworth, knows tina,
10 the victor belongs the spoils.

ANOTHER RAILROAD CosvENTIoS.--We notice
in the l0wa Republican. call for Convention
to assemble at Iowa City, on the Goth Of Feb.
Next for the purpose Of soliciting the aid Of the
Gen. Government, in constructing rail road
from Davenport TO Council Bluffs OH the Mssoa-
ri river.
We rather think this would be running the
thing into The ground, and the effect will be
rather to fail in securing what, we have already
asked for, without the remotest probability OF
securing that for which this convention assem-
bles. II would be infinitely better to secure one
thing first, and not appear too greedy in our de-
mands on the Government. We fear that these
bills will kill each other. But can the friends Of
this contemplated road think so! Perhaps they
do.-Dabuque Telegraph.
The above is the coolest piece of inpu-
dence or tho grossest bit of ignorance we
have seen for many day. The editor is

The Davenport gazette. [volume] (Davenport, Scott Co., Iowa) 1841-185?, 1850-02-14

ave confess we cannot exactly understand the SEN
tence above. We unwilling to think that the cit
zens of Cedar county would tenn Delegates unauthor
ised who were appointed by a large meeting of the
ctisens Of Davenport. The author OF the above
luton has unquesonaby got these Delegates and the
Delegate who visited Cedar COMPOUNDED. Those Del
egates were authorised by the cisens and their ex-
penses were betrayed by an appropriation made by
the town corporation. They visited Muscatne for
the purpose of ascertaining the sentiments Of its cti-
sens in respect to the Railroads projected and
west US, and they accomplished their object SO far
as they concerned, satisfactorily to ctisens.
