Mount, Ills , March 19th 1877. To the Editors of the Rock Island Argus. In your Saturday eyening paper, refer ring to the question of postmaster here, you say the postmaster&nip has narrow ed down to two men each representing opposite factions, L. E. Hemenway and Win. Kerne, Aa the case now stands, the tatter has the inside track having the support of the '"ins," the anti Hawley men." Iu this you are not correctly in formed, so far as it relates to me. I am ut now uor have 1 been for nearly eight years an applicant for the office in ques tion, ror all of this time I have support ed the present postmaster, and uow when Mr. Weils proposes to retire 1 favor the appointment ot Mr. Hemenway to fill the place, and 1 believe, Mr. Editor, that you will say my choice is a wise one. As to the anii-liawley parly, there is no such thing here. Mr. Hawley has permanently retired from the business of making and unmaking postmasters, aud if his political epitaph shall ever be written I suggest that it may be said that here lieth a man who broke down from the efforts of an over-load of official patronage." lruly yours, Wm.

Tillioghast, Koator and Moore, and in ad vance of all others, the club announces a concert by Miss Emma Abbott, America's favorite Prima Donna, to be given on ed nesday evening, of this week, at the Con gregational church.
