CLINTON, Iowa, Sept. 6, 1858.
EDS. DEMOCRAT Gentlemen A friend has
forwarded to me the Davenport Weekly Gu
zehe of Sept. I'd, which contains the follow
ing article:
Oh HIS REPUBLICAN MISSION Ex-Govern-
or Baker one of the counsel of the Clinton
Railroad company, and the gentleman who
Is supposed to be at this time the real owner
OF the Ciintonidn, and the importer of the
editor of that paper, was in this city cou-
pie of days ago, and it is understood on a
mission connected with the great Kepubli-
can mission of beating Mr. Dillon with Mr..
Bennett. Gov. Baker is Democrat, but
he seems this time to be perfectly willing to
sacrifice his political preferences to carry
out his railroad objects, which appear to be
intimately connected with the success of his
preferred candidate, Mr.. Bennett. We pre-
sumo this gentleman was the Democrats
authority for the remarkable statements it
made yesterday in reference to the late Re-
publican convention in Clinton, euerg one of
which charges were as false as the charge
that Mr. Dillon wrote the resolutions passed
and every man In it voted for the resolu-
tions denouncing the Cltntonian, excepting
one man, and that man was Mr.. Bailey, the
partner of ex-Gov. Baker, of New lamp
shire.
Allow me to state through your columds:

We have rscssved By Telegraph the
following dispatch, dated New York
September seventh.
"Deaths from yellow fever for the
thirty hours ending yesterday, one
hundred. Deaths last week, four hum
dred and fifty"
From this it would appear that, that
dreadful scourge, the yellow fever, has
begun to rage with fearful violence in
the great commercial metropolis Of the
country. One hundred deaths in one
day, at the commencement of the dis
ease is a terrible foreshadowing of its
mighty inroads when it shall reach its
height. The mere suggestion of the
fact brings back to the mind fearful
rememberences Of the time when the
same great destroyer decimated the
population Of the great city. We can
only hope, If the dispatch be reliable,
for the early appearance Of cold wealth
er to cut short the work of death which
has begun SO fcarfully.
The dispatch may not, however, be
worthy of credence and We most sin
cerely trust that the result will prove
it so. We may be justified in doubt
ing ITS authenticity, until further ad-
vices, from the fact, that We have here
tofore received no accounts Of the pre-
valence of the fever in the vicinity OF
New York except at the Quarantine
and mistake may have occurreain

that of New Orleans by the telegraphic
