The Union seeks to withdraw public at

making personal attacks upon one OF the
proprietors Of this paper. This course Will
probably deceive no one, or bring any credit
IN il. .n,hors. Sometime ago the UniOH
commanded the salutatory of one of the
Droprie,ors of this paper, and said ii would
"ssrve as common platform over which
both the Onion and TIE AReus can strike
hands" From that day to this TIE ARGUS
has never made one improper or unpro-
feSsionAl allusion to the editor OF the Union
How has be treated the author Ci what he
termed as those modest sentences ?" The
very reverse of that. The ARGUS viii have
no such controversy. l. seeks the good o.
Rock Island, aud will bring before the Pso'
PIE every subject affecting their interests
TIE ARGUS has said that, il the mian ave
nue. was being located to the detriment o.
this side of the river so effort ought to b'
made TO change that location. Il has asked
! the people to investigate for themselves AnC
/ look out for their interests Is there any
thing wrong in ,his? The Union has Ad
mitted that different location would
be disabled, and that Mr.. Hawley tried Il
get different location, but had not tn
requisite influence. Is not this eyidenc
that TINS ARGUS was right in ashiog ID
people to investigate the matter, and asser
their JUS; claims, even il Mr.. HAwley an,
the Union had abandoned them to thel
fate Is there any particular reason VII
Illinois people instead of Iowa psopl

VINO II TO BLAME?-CiroumstA are

man life, and the total unGtness Of some
medical practitioners. The following is an
instance ofthe kind A little boy eight
years old, named BERTHE Dophf, whose par
ents reside on the corner of Orleans and
Buffalo streets, ran away from home in
company with his brother, on the morning
Of the 10Th Of this month, aud both crossed
to Davenport, to attend Barnum's show.
While there, playing with some boys in the
street. he was taken with convulsions. He
was carried into house near by, and q

apply blistsrs 10 his back aud breast. In

piled has come of and his breaIt and bacl
