FREEpoRT, ILL.,, Feb. 5.-The Farmers
meeting at this point to-day, in spite ofgthe
misrepresentation of leading local paper.
which. through nislnformation or malevo-
Ience, advertised postponement and in
the face of the fact that the speakers ad-
vertised were delayed until noon by be-
lated train, was well attended and elicitesl
great interest. The meeting was addressed
by the Hon. d. j. Pinckney, of Ogle county:
Prest w. c. Flagg, of Madison county S.
NJ. Smith, Secretary of the Illinois State
Farmers Association; and j A. Patterson,
OF W Whiteside County The Court House
was well filed in the afternoon, and the au-
dience listened with deep interest to Prof.
Pinckney and Mr. Flagg At the evening
session there was large attendance, the
audience being addressed by Mr. Smith
and Mr.. Patterson.
The meeting, Notwithstanding the draw
backs, was decided success, and one that
will tell for the movement in the good time
coming.
Polo, ILL.,, Feb 5.-The farmers meet
ing held at this place to-day is the third
one in the county this week. Prof Pinck-
ney presided S. NJ. Smith addressed the
meeting in the afternoon in a speech of
nearly two hours. The speech was mostly
devoted to the political phase Of the move
ment, urging the farmers to forget that
they had belonged to either of the old par
ties, and vote independently in the future.
He advised them, in selecting men to rep
resent them in the various offices. to con-
slider only their competency and honesty land
to nominate no man for any Office who ask
ed for it.
The meeting came together again at 7
clock, and was first addressed by Mr.
Smith on the advantages of cooperative
buying and selling. He was followed by
j. A. Patterson in logical speech on rail
road legislation, showing how utterly it had
failed in efecting reforms in the cost OF
transportation. Altogether the three
meetings have been a decided success
reaching. as they have, so large a portion
of the farmers Of the county, and arousint
them to the Importance and necessity O
perseverance, if they would emancipat,
themselves from monopolies, and reform
our Government.

Reasons why they Only
should be Used!

THEIR REPUTATION IS ESTABLISHED.
Thousands of testimonials have been received,
showing that these POWDERS have performed
miracles in curing of long standing, many of
them considered hopeless.
THERE Is NO RISK IN TAKING THEM.
They contain nothing injurious and, therefore
cause none of the lingering diseases often the
result of the many nostrums of the day Physicians
recommended them as superior to Quinine or any
other known remedy, for they leave the system in
healthy state, and the patient beyond the probabi-
ity of relapse.
BEWARE OF COUNTERFEITS.
The genuine are put up in square tin boxes, with
THOMPSON'S FEVER AND AGUE POWDERS
stamped on the lid and the signature of THOMPSON
& CRAWFORD the wrapper. No others can pos
sibly be genuine.
The daily Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1873-1877, 1874-02-09

There are no diseases so debiltating in their ef
fects upon the constitution the above, and none
more difficult by the usual modes of practice.
The FEVER AND AGUE POWDERS will effect o
cure in cases of the longest standing well as
prove preventive in the forming stages of the dis
ease. Being purely Vegetable, they act with GER
tanty on the disease, totally eradicatng it from the
system, and prevent return at any future period.
Why waste your money and health in trying every
medicine you hear Of when THoMPSON'S FEVER
AND AGUE POWDERS have never failed to cure
the CHILLS in any cases

Tonic is, however, but poorly exemplifed
by this figure of speech for prairie fire
runs only in one direction, whereas the
reputation of the Bitters spreads toward
all points of the compass. There is not

United States where this meritorious
preparation is not appreciated. If any

we advise him to go to the Prairie States,

the Southern rivers, to New England, in
fact anywhere within the limits of ''Uncle

By so doing he can raise heartier and

Persons who have been cured can't help
laughing at other people who tell them
that the medicine which saved their lives
is failure.

DONE.
have always thought Leauder was a good
deal of fraud, and the dellespont not so
much of stream after all. A scene wit
messed at Piney Point q few days ago satisfied
me more than ever that 1 was right. Among
the gentlemen of color at that famous old
resort is one with the very unpoetical name Of
James Parker. James is good-looking, has a
weakness for writing poetry, and will put
him against any of Welcker's or Wormley's
walters for politeness and attention. James,
when in the city, resides in the First ward,
where be has a lady love-Hattie johnson by
name The johnson family (colored) is
among the most aristocratic of that aristo-
cratic locality. Hattie write James letters that
are gushing over with love and brim-full Of
poetry. ! have seen some specimens of that
poetry, and can assure the reader, without the
slightest breach of confidence, that It is quite
equal to some have read from the pen Of our
distinguished poet, George Alfred Townsend.
OF course those letters are much priced by
James, who stands on the wharf when a steamer
from the city approaches, and looks for them
Just as regularly as the sun rises. James SAYS
the Georgiana never comes down the river
without a letter from his dear Hattie.
A day or two ago that steamer arrived.
"Jim, der's mar a letter fur you dis time"
said the man who had usually acted the part
of messenger. This was sad news to James,
whose face became shaded with melancholy.
He was about to turn away and brood over his
disappointment. The boat had cast of, her
wheels were revolving sharply, and she was
moving ahead, when the scamp who had thus
preyed on James feelings held the letter up
provokingly. In attempting to throw it ashore
the wind caught it and carried it into the angry
sea. The tide was setting upward, q fresh
breeze was blowing, and away on the tops Of
the rollers the delicate little missive speeded
towards Lighthouse Point; and in the ardent
lover plunged, and after it he swan. But the
wind and the tide and the waves were too
much for him. He swams mile or more, then
gave It up and came ashore, where he stood
looking despairingly in the direction the letter
was speeding. It would not do to give it up
so. He must have that letter or1perish. Up
he came to the Point, and in he plunged again,
encouraged by the cheers of those who were
anxiously watching his movements from the
wharf. This time he was successful. After
swimming nearly mile he overlook the much
coveted missive, put 1t carefully in bis bosom,
and swan back to shore. James came to me
holding up the wet, dripping letter. "Boss, that
letters got heap of poetry in il. Ny sweet
heart, Hattie johnson, wrote that letter. There
amt no better lady in all Washington" said
James, who, when he had dried the letter,
read me some of the poetry, which, / can as
sure the reader, was gushing-in style, at
least. Who will say after this that there is
nothing heroic in the colored racel
