CREpITARlg.-Our brother editor, over
the way. wants us to tell him ''what is credit
able" We will gladly aid him in his search
after knowledge. 1t is creditable to extend
the same charity to others that you claim Tor
Yourself 1t is creditable to treat other peo-
pie exactly as you wish to be treated your
SELF 1t is creditable to sustain the constitu-
ton of your country and oppose those who
would violate it. 1t is creditable to denounce
every humbug, biackguard and squack who
charges your city officers with robbing him
for their own personal benefit. tits credita.
BILE to suppose your city officers are acting
according to law, and that it is their duty to
enforce the laws, and respect their oath of
Office. 1t is creditable to suppose that all
the money they collect for the people is
placed in the peoples treasury, properly en-
tered on the peoples books, and used for the
peoples benefit. 1t is creditable to sustain
your city, its people and their officers, in
stead OF the blackguard and quack. 1t is
creditable to be democrat and oppose the
peoples rights and oppose the ferry swindle
and all other attempts to cheat the people of
thoir rights. 1t is creditable to love, cherish
honor, protect and defend all virtuous women;
take, and pay in advance for, the ARGUS !;
advertise in the ARGUS, and get your job
printing done at the ARGUS Office. But the
'most creditablest' thing is to do just what
Mr.. Wilson Smith, the excellent steward of
the magnificent steamer Hawkeye State did,
yesterday-send a very large, beautifully or
namented and rich fruit cake to the editor of
the ARGUS.
By the way, the Hawkeye is the flag
ship of the Northern Line Squadron
She is one of the most perfect steamers on
the river, and has set of officers who are a
credit to the boat, viz: Captain, J. Worden !;
Clerks, Havln and Everhart; Mate Joseph
Summers; Pilots, Thomas J. Brown and
Albert Wenton; Steward, Wilson Smith :;
Cook, Johnney Collins; Pastry Cook, VIII
Hawthorn. Several of these gentlemen are
residents of Rock Island, winch is creditable
both to them and the city. None of them
ever do discreditable acts, but always treat
everybody creditably whether on the boat or
off. 1t is creditable to be connected with
the Northern Line. It is creditable to be
the Hawkeye State. 1t is creditable to be
an officer on the Hawkeye State. 1t is cred
liable to work on or for the Hawk
eye State. 1t is ereditabie to take
passage on the Hawkeye State, or
send or receive your freight by that excel
lent and safe boat. 1t is creditable to re-
ceive such magnificent fruit cake as the
steward of the Hawkese- sent u.s. and if our
neighbor of the Union will just step over to
our sanctum and help US eat that cake and
wash it down with little of Alderman Peter
Fries's best old brown sherry, it will be cred
liable to him and to us. Eh2 What dye

Messrs. Thomas Allcock d Co-Please send,

Pastors Our daily experience confirms their
very superior excellence At this moment of
writing man applies for one, who, by entangle-
ment in the shaft of machinery, had both his legs
broken, spine severely injured, and was for nearly
a year entirely helpless. This man found relief
very soon by the application of a plaster to his
spine. He was soon enabled to work, and now
he labors well ever. He would cheerfuliy
pay S. for a single plaster if they could not be
had at q lower rate. am surprised that sur
geons do not make of these perforated plasters
to the exclusion of all others, their fexibiitv
and adhesiveness greatly in advance of all
other plasters with which am acquainted while
the perforations peculiar to them rendered them
greatly superior all others for ordinary surgical
uses. Knowing the plasters to he so useful l
have no scruples that my sentiments should be
known; J. w. JOHNSON, M. ID.

FAST DAY.-The Union says "most of our
merchants closed their DOORS on that day.
But they didn't lock them or close their. shut
tiers, nor refuse to sell their goods, wares and
merchandise, if they had an opportunity
We could perceive no difference between
that day and any other day. The recon-
mendation of Gov. Oglesby to change the
ancient and customary day in order to make
little cheap political capital, was a small

spected by radicals than by democrats

A GRAND EPOCH IN MEDICINE.

DR.. Maggiel is the founder of new medical
system. The quantitarians whose vast internal
doses enfeeble the stomach..and paralyze the bow
els and with whose external remedies the uleerat
ed and eruptive surfaces of the skin are deluged
in vain must give place to the man who restores
his health and appetite with from one to three
harmless pills, and cures the most viruent and
scrofulous disorders with from one to three bexes
of his matchless salve.
DIR. MaggiePs Pills and Salve have ushered in
a new medical era. No more nauseating avalan-
ches of drastic drugs need be poured down sick
peoples threats. One of MaggiePs Pills rectifes
the disordered condition of the stomach and liver,
cleanses the head and restores the nerves in
space of time short enough to be almost classed
as marvellous.
In fact Maggiel's Bilious. Dyspeptic and Diarr-
hea Pills where all others fail. While for
Burns, Scalds, Chilblains, Cuts and all abrassions
of the skin, Maggefs Salye is infallible.

A YOUNG LADY

Returning to her country home, after a sojourn
of a few months in the city, was hardly recog
nized by her friends. In place Of a coarse, rus
tic, flushed face, she had a soft ruby complexion
of almost marble smoothness, and instead of
f 1r,~ she really appeared but eighteen.
upon inquiry as 10 - -Aaor-,
she plainly told them that she used the CHS.
CASSlAN BALM, and considered it an inyal-
liable acquisition to any lady's toilet By its use
any lady or gentleman can improve their personal
appearance an hundred fold. 1t is simple in its
combination, as nature herself is simple, yet I'M
surpassed in its efficacy in drawing impurities
from, also healing, cleansing and identifying the
skin and complexion. BY its direct action on
the cuticie it draws from it all its impurities
kindly healing the same, and leaving the surface
as nature intended it should be- clear, SOFT smooth
and beautiful. Price 81, sent by mail or express

Rich SCENE.-About o'clock this at.
ternoon, (the l7th) while Job Ross with his
stentorian voice, was selling lot of goods
at auction, and about the time he had got
the crowd in good humor so that they bid
enthusiastically, some itinerant, patent hum
bug opened out with a ringing voice for
another auction, at Jobs stand. He seem
ed to have lot of galvanized brass or gold
colored pens for sale, which were especially
designed for the benefit of mankind general
" and particularly for the use of merchants,
bankers, lawyers, and business men general
". Itinerant drew the crowd from Ross for
a few minutes, but the latter finally succeed
ed in inducing portion of it to fall back to
its original position, SO that the auction and
the galvanized pen humbug progressed at
the same time. Both crowds were amused,
and when the auction closed all persons
seemed satisfied with their investments, but
whether Job or 'tother fellow made the most
money we could not ascertain.
