NORTHERN LINE OFFICE.-We have sew
zeal times spoken of the changes transpir
ing in the Office of Mr.. Jarvis, the agent OF
the packet companies, and now it is finished
A partition, counting room, separating it
into an Office and waiting room for psssen
gers. The partition in itselfis q work of
art, the upper portion of it being of glass,
and reflects credit upon the carpenter who
performed the work. The face OF it has
been handsomely grained by Mr.. Young,
and presents an attractive appearance. The
partition has also been compelled to duty as
business desk, which it is a very handy
one. The office, in the rear of the partition
is commodioas and neat, and the passenger
room likewise. Although we can say tina,
Mr.. Jarvis has the incest steamboat Office
on the Mississippi. Onr citizens should call
and see it.

PErER RopINsoN has left the police force.

PETER ROBINSON has left the police force,
Fred E. Wright, of the Third ward, is his
successor.-U Union 25th.
Why did Robinson leave the police force
For this reason: Entering the force at the
earnest solicitation of his friends, and with.
out the slightest experience in the business,
he was put under charge of Curtis, and re-
ceived instructions to follow Curtis lead in
all things, as he (Curtis) had served on the
force before. Accepting the order as it was
given, he endeavored to follow Curtis lead,
and do as he did, until, finding that he
could not obey orders, and serve the inter-
ests of the city, he resigned.
Curtis notion of the duties off policeman
appear to have been rather original. He was
boss of the First Ward and watched it in his
own peculiar manner The first thing after
his installation was to secure lookout,
comfortable, cosy place in which he could
snooze undisturbed. This he found in the
Glass Works. Having 8 lookout, he estab-
tablished post of observation at the corner
opposite the Msrshal's residence. From this
post he established system of espionage
nightly upon his superior officer. As soon
as the Marshal had retired for the night, he
would leave the beat in charge of Robinson
and HE him to bis lookout, for a comforts
BILE snooze, or he would go to some saloon.
and being q naturally modest man, would
step into some private rear room and enjoy
few drinks of 4O-rod. Finding that his
lookout vas becoming known to the public,
he established another one, this being out
of his beat, it would of course be beyond
reach of his prosecutors in the First Ward.
The gas works he found to be fully as com
Portable as his late retreat, and here he was
found sound asleep one night this week by
Robinson.
The mighty Curtis liked this not. To be
caught mapping, and out of his beat, at
that, offended the model reformer. He had
brother-inlaw, by name Wright; follow
ing the example of the great Galena tan
ner, he thought it his duty to furnish en-
ployment to his relatives. Behold the re-
suit. The reformer saw the mar.
shall 1t was highly necessary
/ that so incompetent and unreliable
a man as the Argus claimed Robinson was,
should be instantly removed from the model
police force. The marshal saw it. To pre-,
vent his discharged, Robinson resigned
Wright was appointed. The brothers-in
law have their own way. If one sleeps, the
other has eyes, but sees it not. Tho noble
Curtis is avenged upon the low born. Swsde
who dared to find him asleep out of hi,
beat. Everything Is lovely, and the goos'
ID suspended at an unusual altitude.

MrssfNG.--As the westward bound pass
enger train pulled up in front of the hotel
last evening, the engineer discovered that he
had but one car attached, whereas he should
have had FIVE. If the knowledge that the
missing cars with their loads Of precious
freight had all gone to the bottom of the
Mississippi had suddenly come upon him,
his face could not have expressed more con-
Germ. The back track was taken, and there,
upon the bridge, were the missing cars.
The train had had to wait on the bridge for
a boat to pass through the draw, and when
i. started up the jerk broke the coupling pin,
and thus is the disconneetion accounted
