APPOINTMENT OF NORTHERN LINE
AGENT. - At q recent meeting of the
directors and officers of the Northern Line
Packet Company, in St. Louis, Mr.. VIM. y
Jarvis was appointed their agent for this
city. This appointment is good one and
well calculated to please our shippers, bust
ness men and the travelling public. Mr.
Jarvis is young man of good business
tact and ability, and thoroughly understands
the river business, having spent some ten
years in the office of Geo. W. D. Harris, the
retiring agent.
Mr. Harris hands the agency over to
good hands, and will give his entire time to
the implement and machinery business. He
has recently concluded arrangements to
take the agency for the sale of the machin.
cry and implements of the celebrated
Ottawa Works, which precludes the possi-
bility of his longer acting as agent for the
Northern Line, position he has held for
more than dozen years with credit to him
self and profit to the company.

BILE Importance to our manufacturers to buy

About sixty couples from this city, Daven-

OPENING OF NAVIGATION.
The Rock Island the First Boat of the Season.

The first boa. of the season is always
expected with interest, anxiously waited for,
and welcomed with enthusiasm by our citi
zens. Her officers become heroes for the
nonce, and are regarded with feeling of
veneration and awe. Even the deck hands
are regarded as something above the com
mon run OF deck-hands, and their every
movement is closely watched and comment
ed upon. The crowd in attendance is COM
posed of a number of the sober and stead.
les, intermingled with bloods and first and
second class loafers. To laborers, the ap-
pearance of the frst boat is the signal of
employment, and welcomed accordingly.
The above programme, slightly altered,
was observed upon the landing of the hrst
boat this season. About l O'Clock this
morning the good steamer Rock Island
steamed up the river and landed at the
point near the piow factory, where she IN
loaded some freight for the Glass Works
After unloading, she pushed up stream
again, and soon arrived in front OF Gecrgo
Harris warehouse, where she showed and
worked until 2 o'clock before she could
effect landing. She brought up quite q
good trip of passengers, the freight ives
rather hight, Kellerstrass & Vogele, Bene-
dict, Smyth Il Mcdonnell and Darts Sons,
we're the only ones receiving any. The
boat is looking as fine AID neat as when she
left US. Capt. Jas. W. Campbell is on the
roof, and the genial Charley Mather in the
office, assisted by E. F. Smith. Early this
morning she crossed to Davenport, where
she lay until about ten o'clock, taking on
an assorted cargo, Of about 1900 packages.
She returned to this city about IL, took on
about 200 packages of mixed freight, and
with good trip of passengers left for Keo-
kuk. Mr.. Mathers informs us that very
little ice was met on the up trip, that We
have more at this point than at any above
St. Louis.
The St. Johns, stern wheeler, which
left St. Louis with the Rock Island arrived
} at this point about two hours behind her
The St. Johns had light mp trip. She is
commanded by Capt. Nose Hall, and DicE
Roberts is the clerk.
The New Boston will be up tomorrow
She is run by Capt Melville.
