The Dayenporters are still cIamorng for
q city market. Dubuque has a magnificent
city market, and no city the size of Rock Is
lond and Davenport, in the east, is without
this necessary institution. The Democrat
says Of it:
'Ifthis arrangement could be carried out, it
would be great convenience to all citzens and
a source Of considerable revenue to the city. The
farmers would know just where to bring their pro
duoe, and the purchaser would know just where to
look for every article he needs and besides, both
would give and receive fair prices 1t is a mat
ter that should be brought prominently forward,
and If the city should refuse to do anything in the
matter it could be made splendid private sPeou-
lation by any who are so inclined"

Mr. SAMUEL BowLEs informs US that he
witnessed the aerial fire works, from his
place, on Rock River. He says it was a
magnificent sight, though not equal to that
Of 1888, which he remembers very distinctly
Then the floating lights seemed to strike the
earth in some instances, and rebound; but
now they were dissipated long before they
arrived near the earth

JoLIuucAwoN ENrRAoRpISARY. - Last
evening, By invitation, we attended gooo
fellowship sorce at the house Of our OLD
and well known citizen Jacob ohIweiIer
This, as one may suppose, was attended by
many Of his numerous concourse oiiHcuds,
and they met with a reception which
might please an anchorite. 4 plodigious
supply Of the good things ofour animal ma.
ture were bountifuly set forth, and all were
oppressed with the sentiment Of hearty wei
come, and that they must enjoy themselves
to the "top Of their compass And they
did it. Rheush flowed like water aud the
happy couclayc bubbled over with harmo.
ny. Songs sentimental, couyiyial, and pa.
trotic, were sung, in English and German,
and the Rhine and Mississippi joined cur
rents and flowed riPplingly together in the
sea Of iorgetfulness and boundless enjoy
meut, 1t was an occasion which will leave
its imprint on the memory Of those present,
and the house of Jacob OhlweiIer will be u
luminous point in the arc Of ftheir remem'
brancc.

TuE Union, in its zeal to induce some.
body to build first class hotel here, "slops
over" oycr.does the thing, and is unjust to
our present hotclkeepers. 1t says, Every
few travellers stop here unless they must
preterring to 90 TO Davenport for meals and
lodging, even when their business isin Rock
Island This is wholly wrong, and wholly
untrue. Tho fact is that more travellers
stop here and do business over the river,
than who stop over there and do business
here. Whether it is because they like our
hotels or our landlords better, or whether
their bills are less here, we do not know
but the fact is as we state it. We have
pretty good hotels here, and they are crowd
ed all the time. But We haven't enough hotel
room, and not quito Of the modern style
What we want is one good sized new hotel,
the construction of which shall be under the
charge Of competent architect, and which
shall contain all the modern improvements
and accommodations of first class house.
If some citizen would build such house
not too large or expensive, but Of the best
style and kind,and have it kept as well as
any hotel in the land, it would be public
blessing.

ToURNAMENT.-The tournament at L s.,
Prince Georges county, Mary land, yesterday,
was very numerously attended, and was one OF
the most agreeable affairs Of the kind that ever
occurred in that county. Its estimated that
upwards of three thousand spectators witnessed
the fitting. The address was delivered by
Mr.. Fendall Marbury, and the Knights were
charged by Mr.. Mace Gardiner. Mr.. Lambert
Jarboe was the successful knight and crowned
the Queen of love and beauty; and the riding
of Messrs. Nelson Jsrboe, Sasser and Gwinn
entitled them to the privilege of naming the
maids Of honor.

- MARBLE. The last letter of our attentive
correspondent from Loudoun, dated the Goth
ult., contained an interesting account OF an APP
parently valuable deposit Of beautiful marble
on the land of Mr.. B. +. Garter, in the vicini-
ty Of Goose Greek, about eleven miles from
,Leesburg. The discovery attracts much atten-
ton. Mr. Carter is endeayoring to organize a
company to work the land around for the pur-
pose of more thoroughly developing its re-
sources, and there is every reason to believe a
rich and profitable undertaking is ready for
those willing to embark in the enterprise.
