@The Burlington Gazette in an
article on the proprie'y Of appointing route
agents, on the mail Packets between keo.
kuk and this point, says:
at has been 10 Us . matter Of surprise
that route agents have not long since been
put upon the lline Of steamers plying be-
tween Keokuk and Rock Island. There is
not mail route on the whole Mississippi, Of
the same distance, which 50 imPeratively
demands the attention Of regularly author
ized mail agents. and yet. strange to say.
this is the only portion Of the river, from
st. Paul to New Orleans, which is left un-
cared for, in this regard, by the Post Office
Department The amount of mail matter
thus transported. and thus left to the reck.
lees charge OF steamboat ports-s. II very
large, and what 10 more, It 10 of the most
valuable character-valuable in itself, and
Of great importance to the public along the
route. We sincerely trust that the matter
will at once command the attention of the
department, and that competent and respon-
sible agents will be Immediately provided
for. The service demands such an arrange
ment-the credit of the Post Office Depart
ment requires it-snd decent respect for
the wants Of the people along the line ought
to ensure it,"

GARLIC SERIEs.-MeSsrs. Editors
After a heightened period Of solemn medi
tation. IRE have conceived an idea, which
struggles for expression. We are deter
mined that the way is open for our literary
fame We are modest, and for time, be.
lieved that our complaint was disease oi
the diaphragm. which our physician informs
US, is located midway in the abdominal and
thoracic regions.as a partition of separation,
kind Of Missouri Compromise line between
the freedom Of frespiration and the servitude
Of the intestinal organ. But we have nc
faith in doctors, for on taking dose of gar.
lie We saw light descending upon US as a
dove, and all at once, We became inspired
as it were, to obtrude our faith and expe.
rience upon the world. Garlic is antidote.
and all the Medical faculties cannot pur.
suade US, that garlic is not the inspiring
divinity of rare literary thoughts.
The first idea which garlic suggested, was
that Of our protesting against proceeding
which we are informed is on foot in this
city, having for its object the removal of
the Hospital Buildings, "to some mere fa-
voring locality" The reason is scarcely
limited at, but is prot ably well known
Some malicious persons, are desirous Of
opening a street through the Hospital
grounds, and to call it Pumpkin Avenue.
This will destroy the beauty of the grounds
and will essentially increase the malignancy
of the diseases Of the patients who 60 to
that benevolent institution, because the
phvsicians .s,v,G, Jnat the mind of o sick
person has much to do with their disaasa
and care That with a beautiful landscape,
waving foliage. and the music of birds in
the tree tops, the patients will be beguiled
of their maladies, become cheerful and thus
easily restord to health.
"What think you Of this, ye Davenport
ers?" Shall this institution. the nucleus of
an overshadowing glory to your State and
city, crown some pretending but more ap-
preciative and liberal locality? Must We
have this institution removed from our
midst,so that yellow fever, small pox, x,cholera
and other epedimics shall have no home for
development" and all this from "a mean
spirit of avarice" Awake! We freemen of
Davenport! Let your united voice be
raised against this greet profanation.-
Procure an in injunction against the opening
Pumpkin Of Avenue.l Must the farmer with
his load of barley, 60 through these grounds
with his "mule team" and thus render the
quiet of the inmates of this institution pre-
crious? Will not this "mule team" be likely
to set up braying as they pass this Philan-
throphic Grove, which should be sacred
from such intrusion
"1he pillars of the State are strong and
massive!" The Eagle is perched upon the
glorious ensign waving in the breeze Of
Heaven! Let US therefore weave around
these sacred grounds. wire fence for pro-
lection! Awake arise !! put on your ar
NOR of defense, and defend the Hospital
grounds from the "remorseless spirit of
that would open Pumpkin
Avenue.
