WESTERN ARMoRY.

Mr.. Benton has introduced bill into
Congress providing for the selection OF |"
site for q Western Armory by the Prea'-
dent Of the United States. This question
was broachcd few years siace, At which
time we indited a number q articles urg-
ing the claims Of Rcck Island for the selec-
ton, but as each member Of Congress wish
ed i, established in his own State nothing
could be effected. As the question j. again
brought before Congress- and in a more tan
cible form, there should be concert Of ac-
ton in the moro interested portions OF The
two States Of Illinois and Iowa 10 effect the
establishment Mt Of the Asmory at Rock Is
land. Tho bill as introduced by MIR. Ben
ton has been read twice and referred to the
Committee on Military Affairs, and in al
probability will pass.

How 1T woRKs.-A few weeks since
six families reached Rock Island Tor this
portion Of Iowa. They had in their pos
session nine thousand dollars in gold, with
which it was their intention to have pur-
chased farms. When they arrived at Rock
Island the ferryman refused TO convey them
across the river unless they assisted TO ex-
trcate his horse-bo from the ice and then
paid him double ferriage. This they hes
i.ated doing, advised by the citizens tina. !,
was eytorton TO which they ought not to
submit. While thus doubling they were
shown some desirable farm. in the vicinity
and at length induced TO purchase. In
this manner was lost to our county six
families Of good citizens and nine thousand
dollars!

NOTICES.

The American chronological Journal
and the Water Care Journal, both able
publications, and, go far as we know, the
Only ones Of the kind in the U. States, came
to us the last week much enlarged and 9th.
erwise improved. The horticultural de-
par,ment introduced into the former Jour-
nal, 10 Of itself worth the subscription price,
which is but One Dollar per annum. We
guarantee that one dollar invested in the
latter Journal, by the man Of family, will
before the expiration Of the year, if its
contents be needed, subtract two dollars
from the doctors bill.
Graham's Magazine Cor February is al
ready received. Among the engravings il
contains the mogni6cen, flow er piece, which,
as Graham remarks, has never been equal
led 10 Magazine. This number alone is
worth half-dollar.
The Chicago Journal comes to US this
week enlarged and improved. After sub
scribing for their own paper we would rec
ommend TO our citizens the Chicago Jour
nal, as containing 4 complete epitorne Of
the news Of the day.

THE WEATHER.

Our winter thus far has been remarkable
for its mild, dry temperature, and its gen.
eral heal,hiness. Since the 18th Of De-
ccmber the mercury has not teen down
lower than II degs. Fahrenheit and during
that time has averaged 81 degs. at daylight.
Yesterday tuesday was ono Of the
most remarkable days We ever have wit
messed and the most disssreeable Of the
season. AZ day dawned every branch.
twig and dried leaf were boar with frost,
and as the shades Of evening closed around
US the Same scene was presented. Old

An anonymous scribbler, taking advan-
tsge Of his disguise TO lie most prodigicusly
respecting the friends Of the Railroad in
this county, appears over the fictitious sig
nature Of .Mechanic Of LIS Clair" 10 the
last number Of the Iowa City Reporter.
We are less surprised a. this exhibition Of
venom, than we are at the editor Of the
Reporter, a protested friend Of the Rail
road, allowing such an article 10 smut bis
columns. II proves to US what we have
been fearful Of, that he cannot be trusted
upon this subject when it comes in contact
with the LccoG % party, or when by sacri-
6cing it be can advance the interests Of
that party. We thus admit him consis-
tent Locofoco. The article in question a.
mounts to little in the whole and is mainly
misrepresentation. When any one is fo6nd
10 father it we will consider i, worth re-
ply.

Wshavs.b been highly amused II latosssa
couple Of ludicroa, incidents. A iriond left
Iowa City immediately after tho defeat o.
the application 70 our Lords, praying the
privilege of allowing tho Cooperation ofthe
town II Dsvenpor. TO subscribe a certain
sum TO tho Rock Island aud I.asallc Rail-
road. With Heightened phiz he accasted
several Of our citizens and told them the
bad news Of which he was The hesrer.- :
They each greeted him with emile which
expanded into grin before he had flushed
his recital. A, length he met US and told
his dolorous tale At which we laughed.-
Our friend losing all patience inquired
how it was that Swhcn he expected to find
regret expressed upon every countenance
at the loss Of 30 important measure, he
found smiles. We told him il was mat
ter 81 Indifference 10 our citizens, that with
the exception Of about seven, they were
pleased 10 hear of its defeat!

The other incident was akin. A friend
from LIE Clsire called upon Us and in tho
course Of conversation rem,rkcd, that while
tho subiec, Of the rejection Of the SO, 200
loan from Scott county to the Rock Island
and Lasalie Railroad WAS the engrossing

feeling was manifested in relation to il,
here in Davenport, the ho.-bed Of the adso-

man who appeared to regard the subject.
Oar answer was a repetition OF that given
the other gentleman.
Oar legislature and the honorable gen.
tleman from this county have had their
trouble for nothing. The Railroad will go
on and their efforts TO Illustrate il will avail
them not. The above amount will yet

that the Railroad was built and that We

i, A SUDDEN DEATH.-On Tuesday even
ing Of last week little child Of Mr.. Adrian
Moore, while running about in the enjoy
mant OF health, sunk down aud before medi-
cal aid could be summoned, expired. We
attended post mortem examination made
BY DR.. White the following day. Upon
lifting the little valve that closes the wind
pipe, a crumb Of bread about half the size
Of pea was discovered. This was evil
IDENTIFY the cause of the death Of the child
and had doubtless been thrown into that
position while in the act Of coughing. Up
on what brittle thread is human life sus-
pended.
