BOARD or TRADE.--The Rim says that
the Board Of Trade met last evening, and
adjourned. 1t did no such thing. A public
body cannot be considered as assembled TN.
til quorum of its members are present.
The Board of Trade collapsed some weeks
ago, and although painful and pertinacious
efforts have been made to resuscitate it since
then, they have all been Of no use. The
president, one of his vice presidents, the
secretary, and the ARGUS reporter have al
ways been on hand ready to do any
thing to advance their individual i'm.
portancc and influence, us well as the pros,
perity ofthe beloved city in which they live.
They have been determined to make this
organization "a power in the land them.

tons has solemnly pealed along the lovely
yallics of the Mississippi, and even been
heard adown the classic Risles Of the no.
tional capitol at Washington. Sages and
senators have paused in their nominations
upon vast political problems, to hear and
heed the voice ofthe Rock Island Board of
Trade. Even wealthy corporations, which
roll in millions, have felt the same potent
influence. Railroad kings have trembled
for the success of their far reaching schemes,
and coal monopolies, like the sun at josh.
"a command, have stood stone still at the
beck Of this combination Of genius and self.
abnegation, But for long time there has
been an extraordinary lack Of common

Our reporter had always been on hand with
pencil and materials, to catch the weighty
drops of wisdom as they fell, and preserve
them for the admiration Of posterity. When
any member has become so oyerpowered

OF some unhappy member Of our community

FESTIVAL AT MoLINE.-A short time ago
an Episcopal church was organized at Mo
line which will soon pass under the charge
Of Rev. II. N. Powers, A festival was held
at Chamberlain's Hall on Tuesday evening,
at that place, for the purpose Of assisting in
raising funds for the building of an edifce
for the new society. About three hundred
tickets were sold in Moline, and one hun.
dred in this city. Ten or twelve couple from
this city were also in attendance, The ev

being crowded, and the greatest uuanimity
prevailing, Every description of refresh.

resentation Of Rebeccs at the well attracted
much attention, the curb stone being Of solid
rock, and the contents within consisting Of
first class lemonade, retailed at ten cents @
glass by the fairest of hands. Al twelve
o'clock the meeting dispersed,

DoUBTFUL.--A letter from Muscstine dat
ed June 9th, and published in the DaVeu.
port Gazette Of the 3Otb, filled with all sort,
Of gossip aud scandal, says:
"A sporting gen" named Ben Langley, for
merly Of Rock Island, but latterly honoring u,
with his residence, was arrested hero to-day, by
tho Sheriff Of Louisa county, and a detective
from Chicago, charged with being an socomplCC
in the great Louisa county safe, robbery last
spring. lie has no visible means Of support, eX'
cept woman, and is "on the gamble" | did
not learn what grounds Of suspicion there are
against him, but would not DO surprizOd if the
right bird was Gagged, He ought to work out q
term in the penitenAary at any rate, on general
principles.
We presume that the person alluded to is
Benjamin! F. Langell. Ben is a Sport
but we don't believe any one thinks him a
theft or a robber The fact that IA Chicago
detective had finger in the pie is pretty
good evidence that the whole thing is
"boah." We wait for further developments
before pronouncing Ben guilty.

cruel barbarism to compel so delicate child
