Eatract of letter from gentleman Of high stan
ding in Philadelphia, to the Editor, dated Ja-
ly %, 1882.
DEAR S1R-Our great meeting is just over,
GREAT whether we consider the unexampled mum,
Der of persons present, their high responsibility of
character or the spirit which animated them.
The number present is variously estimated.
Some go as far as 2O,oOOi others as low as 10000;
truth NAV be between One of the orators, Mr..
Ingersoll, observed that this meeting exceeded IN
size the largest he had seen before, even that
which took place in the same place Immediately
preceding the war. / enclose you slip from the
press, where you may an outline OF the pro-
ceedings. A more full account will doubtless be
published In the mean time you may be ass'l-
red that nothing could exceed the enthusiasm OF
the immense concourse in the cause of jackson
and the people All ar old and tried friends-the
bone and sinew of the paEe, were there. There
we're no absentees, no skukers. The orators
were frequently interrupted by the SHOUTS and
cheers of the entire assemhlage. Dallas, you
will perceive, Was among the speakers; he was

For the Wing and lntelligencer.

MEssRs. EDITORS: Oar state elections are over
whether are satisfied with the result or not, we
must SUBMIT is too late to complain. But it
is now necessary that awe the People'' should
be looking to our interest in another quarter, and
be watchfu to elect men to higher offices yet re.
naming to be filled, who, in public life, have
served their country and not themselves. Such
has been the case with RICHARD NJ JOHNSON, of
Kentucky, the faithful public servant, and the
poor mans friend; and as such we will support
him for the Vice Presidency.
That large majority of the people of the
jackson party, in the west, are in favor of r. NJ
johnson, is plain; and ii is equally plain that a
majority of the politicians professed of the Jack
son party, are in favor of Martin Van Buren,.
But who are to be served, the people or the poll
ltician!-the laboring people, or men who depend
upon offices for living-men who assume to
think and act for us, while are are compelled to
toll and drudge, and bow our noses to the grind
stone to pay their salaries? Are our votes as
freemen, to be controlled by foreign caucus
nominations; and must we suffer ourselves to be
led quietly up to the support Of Martin Van Bu>
rem rig or wrong merely because he happens to
be acceptable to few men in power, who may
have purposes to serve different from those thew
pretend to have, and which they vainly attempt
to conceal from our view? Are we to bow theknee
and worship the idol of few designing men in of
flee who meet in convention and attempt to force
upon the peope the man 9th cir choice and say for
him you shall vote, and for no other9 May we
Judge for ourselves of the character and qualifi-
cations of Candidates for our sufrages, or must
we get Others to judge for us? If we are to sub
NIT dissection to other men in this particular,
why not let hem vote for US also, and save US the
trouble of soing to the polls, if we go to confirm
heir choics and not our own
In our new, the power and the right to exer-
ciss it is with us, rather than with ofice-holders,
oiIc e-hutters, and designing politicians. Who
mai j supports the multiplied operations of GO e
ernmen? who pays the expense Of Keeping its
complicated machinery in motion? Evidently
the farmer, the mechanic, and The Iaboring man.
As sub, we pay for all, support all, and conse,
quenty ought to put such men in Office as will dol
us j,stice.
Gentlemen, if you print what a few plain men
sen you this time, perhaps we will send you more
heeafter. The PEOPLE.

FROM the LIMOS tatfl0t.
To Brigadier General Atkinson,
SIR:-Part ofthe Sd Brigade, together with
the squadron under the command of Gen. Dodge
moved from its encampment at the pass of the
-Four Lakes, on the 2lst inst. at quick time
Having passed this defile, the Brigade entered
an open country thinly covered with oyercup
oak on the right Bank of one of the Four Lakes.
About 10 O'clock A. M, party of scouts dis.
covered and killed the first Sac warrior; pro-
ceeding on the trail of the enemy few miles
further in advance at the head of our Line, three
other hostile Sacs were discovered, two of whom
we're killed, the other made his escape. These
circumstances raised the hopes of the Brigade
to tn. belief that the willy Hawk and his despe-
rate followers could and would be overtaken; its
movements consequently were greatly accelcra~
ted. In the mean while chilling rain began to
fall and continued until night, which rendered the
time exceedingly unfavorable for the anticipated
fight.
Passing rapidly from this point, the enemy be
gan to show itself from the heights on the right
and left. The enemy threw back party of
mounted warriors to occupy position on the left
this movement occasioned temporary halt, and
formation Of the line of battle. 1t was however,
soon discovered to be characteristic stratagem
of the Sac leader, ard the Brigade moved for>

PENNsYLvANIA.-It has been frequently represented
by the opposition prints, that Pennsylvania in conse-
quence of the refusal of The President to sign the bill
re-chartering the Bank would withdraw her support
from the present administration, and give the vote of
that state to Henry Clay How far these representa-
tons will be verified may be learned part from the pro-
ceedingsof very large and respectable meeting recently
held in Philadelphia, which publish to-day. The
call was made for the purpose of correcting
neous impressions that had been circulated abroad cal
culated to influence the votes of other states and
commencing the conduct of the President in this act of
gratitude towards the people of the Union. There
doubt that the subject of re-charterng the Bank
was brought forward for the express purpose of with
drawing the support of Pennsy from Gen. Jack
son. 1t framed in the Senate in such manner as
to make its rejection certain if the President adhered
to opinions already expressed in his messages. The
people plainly see it is party maneuvre, and are
determined not to be managed by it. They too
mindful of their best interests to be ruled by such paty
stratagcms and with feeling Of indignation toward
those who sought to put them down. resolved to
pei Indifferent ARIsrocRAcY before it gets beyond
their control.

! July 18th, 1892
SIR: In an affair on the 2lsf instant between
Gems. Deg and Henry and the hostile Indians
near the Blue Mounds, the latter were defeated
with loss of about 80 men and driven across
the Ousconsin l am fastening via Dixon's
ferry and Galena to Prairie du Chen with three
staff officers, to join Brigadier General Atkinson
Col. Eustis, and all the we'll men will follow
nearly in my route in three or four days. The
Cholera had, on my leaving Chicago this morn
Ing, nearly subsidized; and no doubt will be en-
trely over in day or two. Col. Eusis had
orders not to suffer rangers and volunteers TO
approach him whilst the troops may reasonably
be suspected of Cholera
What supplies of subsistence &C. may find at
Galena Or Prarie dn Chen, know not; but the
troops from Chlcogo will arrive on the Mississip.
pi with rations remaining for ten days rely
on the subsistence department at ST. Louis to
calculate and make arrangements 70 meet our
wants.
wish all the <. rangers which have been
ordered to report to me, to follow my route; lets
tiers have been written accordingly to captain
Ford, Charleston, Ia; capt. Beckes, Vincennes,
la.; capt, James d Henry, Springfield, ILL.,, and
capt jesse B. Brown. DanviIe, Iii. Sabres
and pistols without holsters have been sent to
Danville for the second and fourth captains, and
to Dixon's ferry for the other two. The arms for
The Missouri and Atkinson's companies have been
sent, it is presumed, to some point on the Missis-
sippi; we only brought 10 Chicago the four sets
of sabres and pistols. l wish this information ia
be disseminated, as my means of correspondence
is limited.
The term for which the Illinois mounted men
volunteered being nearly out, | expect to dis
charge them as soon as l shall come I'D with
General Atkinson. The regular infantry and
U. >. rangers will, it is presumed, be sufficien,
for pursuit and the termination of the war,
l remain, with respect,
