ExrRAyAGANCE.-The Union this morn.
inc endeavors to draw attention from the
present extravaganza of the Court House
Ring, by harpjng on Democratic extravs,
gsnce in this county many years ago. 1t
calls the a;d rendered the Warsaw & Rock
ford railroad, "a debt of democratic con.
traction and makes feeble attempt to
cast odium upon it, besides trying to repre-
sent it at SIS, 600 The real amount for
which bonds were issued foots up Only
100000 But what is this compared with
the debt of tho various townships on behalf
Of the Rockford, Rock Island and St. Louis
road, a pet institution with our neighbor ?
Rock Island has voted it $4,000; Moline
| $50. 900; Black Hawk $4,000; Andalusis
10000; and Drury township held an cleo.
ton yesterday to decide on the policy Of
giving $4,000. Putting the probable fig.
ures together, we have $4,000. Com.
pare the amounts, now. We haye-Demo
cratic extravaeauce, 100000; present pru.
dence and economy, s2lO,OOO We rather
like the feeble attempts the radical organ
makes at defending the corruption Of its
party. They give us such fine chance for
ventilsting the Court House Ring.

DISASTROUS C0NFLAGRATIoN.-We learn
that about half of the town of Port Louisa
was destroyed by fire on the night OF the
18th. The conAagration broke out in hay
loft, from tho work, it is supposed, of nn in
cendiary. A saw mill q new warehouse
and hog house were destroyed. A strong
wind prevailed at the time. The loss is es
,imated at about $4,000, falling principally
on c. W. Cllcy & Bro young mon of en-
terprise and popularity.
The evening Argus. [volume] (Rock Island, Ill.) 1861-1871, 1869-10-01

WHAT TnEN.-The radical organ ex-
plains away our enormous jail taxes on the
score that they have been applied for other
purposes than that for which they were de-
signed. In this acting in bad faith toward
the people, the radical Board of Superyi'
sors LAYS itself liable to the charge of lie.
gally appropriatiug public moneys. Plead
ing ilegality to avoid the exposure of cor.
ruption, is mighty poor policy.

SrRucK THE BRIDGE.- This morning,
llst) a log raft belonging to Renwiek, of
Davenport, struck the first main pier OF the
railroad bridge, on the Iowa side, at about
eight o'clock. An attempt was made to
land above the bridge, but by some means
the snubbing line was lost overheard, and
the raft drifted down upon the bridge, one
side striking the first pier, tearing out
great many logs. The ferry boat was cross.
ing to this side at the time, but upon being
sgualled to, put about and made for the
scene of the accident The raft WAS pushed
into shore just below the ferry dock. No
lives we're lost The snubbing line, and
most Of the logs we're recovered The loss
was therefore not very extensive. The raft
came down from LeClaire this morning
Since writing the above, we learn that
the raft struck the boom Of Renwi3k's mill,
instead Of the pier.

MYSTERIOUS DrsAPPEARANCE.-We regret
to state that Mr.. John Stibolt, for some
years past connected with the dry goods
store Of Wadsworth u Co., has very mystic.
riously disappeared and is supposed to have
had sum of money in his possession. He
has heretofore borne very exemplary char
ecter, and the strange inunnor In ~hich he
has made his exit hos excited the liyeliest
spprehensious of his friends-especially of
the masculine portion of them. When last
seen he was driving handsome rig on the
ferry boat, had on an "all fired" lot of good
clothes, and had maj rage license sticking
out of his coat tail pocket, He seemed to
be making for Davenport, his oountensnoe
as radiant as q basket OF champagne. Any
information will be gladly received by his
surviving relatives.
p. S.--The Young man has been heard
from, and for full information see an official
notice elsewhere.

A SAD STORY.
a Bride and a Widow.

The Muscatiue Journal tells cad story,
as follows
Among the many brave soldiers oil the
late war was young man named mos
Morris, Of EdgiEgton, Rock Island county,
who wen. out in an Illinois regiment, ana
who, like many others, contracted thS'
dread disease, consumption, by exposure III
the service. About the lst OF July !a'',
finding that the malady vas growing upon
him, be went to Sal, Lake City, hoping that
q change Of climate aud the eGhilera,ing
air of that locality might restore him to
health. Before starting, however, he had
pIighted his troth to Miss Mary Laquatt, OIL
ostimable young lady, whose father, Jeremi
all Laqua,t, resides not far from EdgIngton
After short stay in Salt Lake, Morris found
himself gradually sinking, instead OF i'm
proving Learning this, his sfianced, with
womsn's true Devotion followed him about
three weeks ago, and on the same day she
reached her destination the twain were made
one. A week after the couple started to re
turn TO Edgington, having given up all hope
Of the invalid being benefited by remain
ing in Utah. At Woodbine, thirty INLET
this side Of Council Bluffs, they stopped {
few days to visit sore friends and give the
Young husband an opportunity to recruittit
strength which seemed to be failing rapidly
Resuming their journey they reached Crane
Junction, few miles west of DesMoines, a
| / o'clock on the afternoon Of the 18th 49,
Here Mr.. Morris seemed almost exhausted
aud expressed desire not to proceed fur
Their, but as the place was small and N
suitable quarters could be obtained it wa
decided to 20 on to Des Moiueg. But, alas
| the sufferer was not destined TO see that city
While being removed from ono car to an
other he brea,hed his last, go calmly an
quietly that the sad truth could at frs
scarcely be realized. A coffin WAS obtaine'
by kind strangers and the grei.strickei
bride and widow proceeded homeward Of
the next train, reaching Muscatine with tn
body on the following morning. On the al
rival of the train, friends Of Mrs Morris Oh
her late husband were notified Of the Gil
cumstance, and at once hGl the remain
taken to ElgingIon.
Deceased was about twenty.eight years
age, and, besides his wife, leaves larg
circle of relatives and friends, who esteeme
him highly.
