Lotze, stating that it was not the Furnace of his
manufacture that set fire to the Third Presbyterian
Church on Seventh street, below Linn, recently,
but the one manufactured by Mr.. NJ, in justice to
Mr.. Martin, we would s:atO that the fire did not
originate from any defect of his Furnace but from
other causes. Two years since we removed one of
Mr.Lotzes Furnaces and put one of Mr.. Martins in
the place of it, which has been in constant use and
gives entire satisfaction. We can cheerfully rec

EDITOR OF THE Rock ISLAND ARGUS
Dear SRI wish for fair play in all things.
Messrs. John F. Hall l. Co., have, at great
cost and labor, started the lumber business
in Cordova, to the joy of the great mass of
the farmers in this region. They are doing
a fair and extensive business. Before they
started in business, clear stnff was held at
500 thousand-there was no regular price
all was shave and speculation among a
fewlittle competitors, and would be so again
if this company could be induced, by these
little competitors, to change their lumber
business to some other place.
Let US sustain a fair, honorable business.
lfthe present company should depart from
the honorable course they have hitherto pur-
sued, viii be one of the first to turn against
them. | am for fair play in business and

The receipts of the Illinois aud Michigan
canal during the last season were S4,30s
less than the receipts last year The sole
occasion of the falling off was the unusually
low stage of water, during the greater par
of the season, in the Illinois river. The loss
thus occasioned to the canal itself is al
amount sufficient to pay moderate interest
on what it would cost TO improve the navi
cation of the Illinois river, to say nothing of
the vastly greater loss occosioned to the pro
ducers of the Illinois valley.

Men out of Work in Connecticut.
From the New Haven Register.

More men are out of employment to-day
in New Haven, than at any previous time
in the last ten years. Our manufacturers
are reducing or have reduced their forces
and it is difficult matter for a mechanic or
working man to obtain employment of any
kind. In this city no less than fifteen hun
dred laboring men are unemployed, many of
them depending upon their wages to support
their families. Recently one half of the OPP
eratives employed in the car factory of Geo.
t. Newhall, were discharged on account of
dull times. On the other hand the negroes
of the south are supported by the Freed
mems Bureau, and the poor white men of
the north are taxed for their support. This
is the natural result of radical legislation.

and first presided over by Albert G. Eber-
hart. The society numbered about fifty
members, and connected with it was Sun,
day school, still in operation. In 1854, the
Methodist denomination, consisting Of forty
members, erected frame church, and held
services under the pastoral care Of Rev. Mt.
Burr. The Presbyterians now number IF
ty members, under Rev. T. R. Johnson, the
Baptists, one hundred and fifty, under Rev
Mr.. Post, and the Methodists, ninety "iem-
bers. We were unable to learn Tie name OF
the minister of the latter named church.
We were informed that 40 vacant seats can
be fonnd in these churches during service
days.
The ueeulation Of the township is now es-
tahl;.aed at eleven hundred, of which num-
psr three hundred and 6fty-eight attend the
public schools. These are six in number.
With one exception, the buildings are capa-
cious, well planned, and in good order. A
new one is being built to supplant the defec.
tive one. The schools are conducted respec-
lively by Peter Griffths, Walter Ayers
Foster, Milton Titterington, R. B. Olmsted,
and Charles Cleland. -'-A
A Good Templars' Lodge was organized
last January, and now numbers forty mem
bers.
I. The Masons also have an efficient organ
ization-the Keeny Lodge, No. 223, which

The installation win take place on the ev-

and dance.
AS we have before said, the land of this
| township lies high end dry The only piece
unimproved, which we have mentioned, can
not be purchased for thirty-fve dollars an
acre. Corn is the best crop raised, general
ly averaging fifty bushels to the acre. Pork
is extensively bred. At Walkers Scales,
in the village, about four thousand head oil
hogs have been weighed during the past
year. The principal buyers are Richard
| Hubbard, one of the citizens, A. Owens o!
| Camden; and Thomas Plummer of Rock
| Island As is the case near Andulusia, five
| miles distant, a great deal of attention has
lately been excited in regard to grape cul-
| ture, and many farmers in this vicinity de-
sign to plant vines next season.

The "Big Injun" Didn't Come to Time.

The Rochester, N. Y. Democrat, of last
week, contains the following:
Colonel Ely T. Parker, who, during the war,
was one of Gen. Grants staff, has made up his
mind to forsake forever the dusky bellies of Indian
sooisty and unite himself to pale-faced maiden.
He will be married on Thursday Of next week to
Miss Minnie o. Sackett, daughter of Colonel
Sackett, who was killed while in command of a
New encouragement during the rebellion. Colo
pei Parker is the Chief Of the Seneca tribe of In
dams, and, in that capacity, stands at the head
of the old confederacy of the Six Nations. He
is well known to many persons in this city, and
his tastes and feelings have always led him to
mingle more with the white people than with the
uneducated and uneivilized savages Of his own
nation"
In the ARGUS of yesterday was telegram
from Washington, stating that the "Big
Injun7 failed to put in an appearance, and
the friends of the parties were mucl, mysti-
fed thereat: ~-'s'ss''s-. ~ V ~a-@ sA=ss-4- .
In the columns of the Times, of the same
day, we find the following:
fashionable circles have been excited here to-
day, over a wedding fiasco. The contracting
parties were Col. Parker, the Indian abide
| camp on Gen. Grants staff, and a we'll known
belle of this city. Gen. Grant was present in
Respondent uniform, to give the bride away; but
| the bridegroom could not be found, and has not
| since been heard of. The wedding party posted
a note of postponement on the church door. Scam
dalous stories prevail to the of the fail
| ure of the bridegroom to appear.
telegram to another paper says:
'Gen. Parker, Military Secretary of General
| Grant, was to have married young lady from
/ Virginia, at the Church of the Epiphany, where
| Gen. Grant, in full uniform, was to have given
away the bride. Everything was ready and in
waiting at the given hour, but no bridegroom
did appear, and after the lapse of few hours,
| they quietly dispersed. No reason or explana-
] ton was given for Parker's non-appearance. He
| was at Gen. Grants last Saturday evening, but
/ has not been seen since, and there is a rumor
| that he was yesterday married to young lady
| in Buffalo. Gen. Parker is heir apparent to the
! throne of the Seneca Indians in New York, and
| is a grandson of Red Jacket, and has achieved
some reputation from his connection with General
| Grant. The lady is very young and accom-
| plished. Her mother is a widow.
P. S.-By reference to our Geographic
dispatches from Washington, of the 20th, il
will be seen that the descendant of the Sen
ecas either got on "big drunk" or was
drugged-most likely the former. ts
