Cauaa and Effect.

If Hof7s Malt Extract Health Beverage
proves its great value as dietetic, nourish-
ing, and healing remedy by its enormous
consumption throughout the world during
the past eighteen years if the scientific
bodies of all civilized countries have united
in its praise and bestowed upon its originator
many medals and diplomas if the most en-
inent physicians recommend it In their prae-
tice to their debilitated patients, and to those
suffering from diseases of the Throat, Chest,
and Lungs, or afflicted with Dyspepsia, Foul
Stomach, Loss of Appetite, etc.; If It's in
PRODUCTION into the principal hospitals of
Europe and America has done wonders, as
the official reports win testify, then we feel
that the American public are justified in
their appreciation of its great value, and in
their discrimination between Hoffs Malt Ex-
tract Health Beverage aud the innumerable
so-called remedies and tonics of the day,
which are short-lived by reason of the slight
foundation on which they build their reputa-
ton but HoHss Malt Extract Health Bev-
erage has been steadily increasing its con-
sumption for the past eighteen years, and is
more popular to day than ever, and wherever
introduced has met with well merited sue
cess.

of Mr.. Walter S. G.. Gates, SO long employed
by the firm of Devoe l. Crampton as sales
man and book keeper, win be pleased to
learn that he has concluded to try, his for
tunes as an independent voyager on our
commercial sea, aud to this end has pur-
chased the book and stationery store on III
inois street, lately owned and conducted by
Mr.. J. Norris. He will be glad to receive
his friends at any time, but will not be thor.
oughly established for ten days yet. He
proposes to improve his present store-room,
clean up thoroughly, and put in a new stock.
He has already ordered an extensive assert
ment of wall paper. Mr.. Gates is an ener-
getic and enterprising young man, and hav-
ing just set forth upon matrimonial and
business life, deserves the hearty encourage
ment of all.

The Rock ISLAND ExcITEMNT.-During
last week, the papers of Rock Island were
hiied with accounts of highway robberies,
attempted assassinations, burglaries, street
nights, etc. We heard the same thing from
gentlemen from that city, and hare been fur
ther uniformed that our city police hare gain
ed some clue to the guilty parties, with a view
of taking them should they attempt to oper.
ate on.this side of the river, as the new city
government of Rock Island has shown itself
ineffective to prevent the outrages, or appre
bend the villains. The people of that city
very sensibly came to the conclusion that a
mistake had been made at their last cleo.
ton, and talked of taking matters into their
own hands for selfprotection. Seeing this
turn OF affairs, whereby the republican off,
GERS were brought into disrepute, the Union
comes out this morning, and aciM authority

of the reported outrages-says they we're

Coon NEWS FOR TBAvELERs.-Passeng
for New York, Boston and New England
cities, viii be glad to learn that the Erie
Railway Company is issuing First Glass
Tickets to New York at 81 70 less than rival
lines. The present authorized rates of the
company are From Dunkirk to New York,
So 90; Buffalo to New York, ST 90; and
Salamanca to New York, 81 90. To secure
the benefits of these reduced rates, passeu-
gers should obtain tickets to Dunkirk, BUT.
fa1o or Salamanca, instead of purchasing
through coupon tickets to New York; and
when at Dunkirk, Buffalo or Salamanca,
procure ticket for the remainder Of their
journey, at the Erie Railway Companys Of
fees, which are always open on the arrival
of the trains of all Western and Southern
Lines. The comfort and pleasure to be de-
rived from trip in one of those luxurious
rolling palaces of the Erie Railway, aside
from the astonishing lew rates of fare, should
induce our merchants and others to take this
route when going to New York or New Eng
land, In preference to all others.

PoLIcE CAsEs.-The Official Organ says
"Dsniel Steward, a Moline democrat" was
arrested BY Marshal Mclaughlin, and fined
by Esq. Highly, $l3 10 for thrashing EXPO
lceman McConchie. If he had been Mo-
line radical, they would probably have paid
him premium for the performance.
Charles Croker, The Official Organ also
says was arrested and fined $40 10 by the
same parties, for loud talking in his own
house. Mr. Croker called on US, this morn.
ing, and wished US to say that Mclaughlin
was ''laboring under delusion of mind
when he arrested him, as were also the wit
nesses. Croker says che wouldn't have
sworn to what. they did for nothin' in the
world

sisting of plays, recitations, songs, music,
&C., &c. Many of the pieces are new and
the entertainment promises to be highly in
teresting. Arrangements have been made
for the ferry boat to run, after the exhibi-
ton, to accommodate people from the other
side of the river. Several well known musi-
clans from Davenport have also promised to
attend and take part in the exercises. Ad-
mission Is cents.
