HON. j. G. EFT,

We learn from the proceedings Of the

Magnolia on the - inst, that Hon. J. G.
HAzELETr, of Monona county. was nomi-
mated as the Union candidate for Repre-
sentative in the District composed of Mo
mona, Harrison, Crawford and Shelby
counties. Resolutions decidedly loyal and
Union were adopted.
This convention has discharged its duty
nobly. There is not a better man IN West.
ern Iowa for Representative than Judge
HAzELETr. Competent, upright, loyal
and popular, his election ascertain. With,
Judge HazELsrr in the House, our friends
of the Monona district will have Repre-.
sentative Of whom they may justly be
proud. No man is more devoted to the
Interests of this section Of the State, and
few possess so folly the elements of sue.
cessful and popular Legislator.
We trust that the people Of that district
will roll up a round majority for the Judge
He deserves it.

BATTLE IN WESTERN VIRGINIA.

Clarksburg, Va, Sept. IA battle
took place about i clock Tuesday after
noon, near Summeryille
Geu. RosencraHz, after making recon
noisance, found Floyd army 5000 strong,
with 10 field pieces, entreuced in power
iul position on the top OF a mountain at
Carn.x Ferry, Oh The west side OF Ganley
river.
The rear aud extreme Of both tanks
was inaccessible, aud the front was masked
oy heavy forest aud close Jungle.
Coz. LvttIe 10Th Ohio, of Benham's
brigade, was in the advance aud drove a
strong detachment OF the enemy out of
the camp this side of the position, the
Site OF which was unknown. Shortly II.
forwards his scouts consisting of four, COM
panles, suddenly discovered themselves in
the lace OF parapet battery, and Il long
Iine OF palisades for rihemen, when the.
battle opened tiercey.
The remainder OF the 10th and l3,h
Ohio were brought into action success ft,lly
by Gen Benham; and the 18th Ohis ai.s
forwards by Capt. Harziif, whose obee,
was an armed Reconnaissance.
The enemy played on our forces tcrrif-
caiiy with muskeiry, rass, canister and
shell causing some casualties.
Sioux City register. [volume] (Sioux City, Iowa) 1858-1871, 1861-09-21

Col. Lyttle lead several companies of
his Irish to charge the battery, when he
was brought down by shot in the leg. j
Col. Smiths 18th Ohio engaged the en-
envy on the left, and Col Lowe 9Th Ohio
directly in front. Col. Lowe fell dead at
the head of his regiment early in the hot
test fire, by ball in the forehead.
McMullin's howitzer battery and Sny-
ders two field pieces in the meantime were
got into the best position possible under
the circumstances, and soon silenced two
of the rebel guns. The fire slackened at
intervals, but grew more furious as mig hit
approached, when the German brigade
was led gallantly into action by Col Nc
Cook, under the direction Of Adutant
General Hartsutf, but after furious fight
of three hours, night compelled the recall
Of the troops, and the men lay on their
arms within a short distance of the enemy,
each ready to resume the contest on the
next morning.
Floyd fled during the night, and sunk
the boats in the river and destroyed the
temporary bridge which he had made
when he first occupied the position. The
turbulence Of the river and the exhaustion
of the troops. made it impossible to follow
him. He left his camp equippage, wagons,
horses, a large quantity Of ammunition,
and fifty head Of cattle
Our loss is Is killed and about 70 wound
ed, generally flesh wounds.
The rebel loss is not ascertainea, as they
carried their dead and wounded with them
but it Wa certainly serious.
