More Corruption.

The health Of the Secretary Of War does
not seem to be go bad as to prevent him from
feathering the nests Of his friends in the
most approved style. lie has recently CON-
tracted with Mr.. John Holiday and Col
Martin to furnish the army in Utah with
breadstufIs for a year at $2S 60 per 100
pounds. Other persons desired to do the
same thing at 81 SO per 100 pounds. The
latest news from the lucky contractors is,
that they commenced buying up all the -four
in Utah that is in the market. 1t is calou-
lated that they will make out Of the job about
100000, or one hundred thousand each for
the four persons thought to be silent or ac-
tive partners, viz: John Holiday. Maj. Mar
tin VIM. Russell, celebrated firm OF Rus
sell, Mapes 4 Haddell,) and Secretary Floyd.
We CLEAN these facts from . letter published
in the Missouri Democrat, which was written
at Camp Floyd on the % Of June.

We are pleased to note that the presen,
State campaign will be conducted, as was the
last, under the direction of John A. Kasson,
Esq., as Chairman of the Central Committee.
The Republicans of Iowa are under great OBJ
legations to Mr.. Kasson for his judcious and
efficient arrangements during the last cam
paign; and it is not too much to saw that to
him, more than to any other man, wo owe, if
not our success. at least the handsome Re-
publican majorities by which we carried the
State.
He has now become thoroughly acqusint-
ed with the political character of every sec
ton of the State, and of the influences ope-
rating in different localities. Under his man
agement the labors Of the campaign will be
completely syssema,ized, and with his clear
perception, sound Judgment, untiring indus
try and prompt and indefa.igable energy to
plan and execute, We entertain the fullest
confidence that the campaign will result in
victory for the Republican cause by major
isy hitherto unprecedented in the history Of
Iowa.

.TAe Cases are Identicni.o

80 1880 0Ec hQoutIChls'
The Philadelphia Ledger, like the Wash
ingson States, regards the case of the foreign
or and the negro as Identical. This organ
OF the Administration says:
The municipal Law Of every country is it's
sovereign right, and it is out of the power Of
any other country to interfere with it. We
have municipal laws in some of our own
States which abridge the liberty of free COL
ored citizens OF other States, but the United
States Government cannot interfere even with
these, except to ask an ameioration or re-
peal, as favor to it. This is all the Gov
eminent can do in regard to the municipal
laws OF European States, unless the restrict
i've character OF those laws should become SO
oppressive to American citizens that war
would be preferable to submitting to them.
1t will not do for the United States Gov
eminent to interpose to protect our natural
lied citizens against the exactions Of foreign
tyrants, argues the Ledger, lest it be requir-
ed to interpose like protection for the few
colored citizens of Massachusetts, against the
slavocratic tyranny OF South Carolina. And
30 our nation must be disgraced and her cit.
izens be oppressed and outraged in foreign
countries, in order that shareholders may ex
ercise like Tyranny over colored citizens
at home with the same impunity.

A Zouaye,s Account of the Battle Of
Mage nlA.

One of the officers of the Zouaves writes
from the field Of battle as follows
Unfortunately we were too early in the
action. The guard had to sustain for two
hours the whole shock Of the Austrian army,
before the other corps could arrive. In that
time we suffered fearfully. We went into ac-
ton ! 900 Zouaves, and OF the end Of the
battle we had but one hundred men on their
feet"
This officer says he had bayonet thrust
in the calf of his leg, which upset him, and
he was taken prisoner, but two of his corpo-
rails dragged him from the Austrians. They
fought in an extensive vineyard. When the
enemy at last retreated, fifteen OF his Zou-
ayes followed after six hundred retiring Aus
TRANS, and hayoneted a considerable number
Of them. The officer estimates the number
Of French in action ut $4,000, exclusive of
Sardinians. The guard suffered much-the
most in proportion.

The best thing that has taken place for a
long while, in Marion county affairs, was the
appointment of Henry P. Scholte, ESQ.,, a
vice-president, Of the Republican State Con-
vention.
We have known for many months, that
Mr.. Scholte had become greatly dissatisfe ed
with the conduct of the democracy-with the
untold outrages Of the administration, and
the base tergiversstions Of Douglas. We
have known, that, at heart, be was a sincere,
and conscientious republican, in principle,
and We did not suppose that be could long
continue to remain 10 the democratic organ
ization. We rejoice. with hundreds, that he
has hadthe courage and manhood to leave a
party which has deserted every time honored
principle OF it's founders, and become mere
machine in the bonds OF corrupt and cor
rupting oligarchy.
MIR. s. was appointed delegate to the
Democratic State Convention, but promptly
refused to serve in that capacity. His up
pearance in our convention The being APP
pointed by Mr.. lngersoll, to fill his place.
was greeted with hearty enthusiasm by the
Republicans Of all portions of the State
1t is complete crushcr to the Democracy,
and especially to the Democracy of this
county, who are already commencing to
abuse MIR. Scholte in unmeasured terms. As
u man of profound intelligence, and integri
ty, MIR. 5. 10 everywhere respected, and, es.
pecially among his own countrymen, he ex-
erts very extended influence. The court
house clique may shoulder their knapsacks
and be of. The reign of the present dynas-
ty is about to close.-l Knoxville Journal.

sippi, endorsing and applying the doctrine
of the bred Scott decision, that negroes have

yesterday, (the ed inst.,) small party OF

foray upon the village, which they burned,
and killed most of the tribe remaining there.
Runners were dispatched to the hunting
