Il" Fusion " at Des MOineS.

A private letter from Dcs Moines of
the 9Th inst, makes the following ref
erence to the Fusion movement:
1t seems that the people Of Floyd
County don't suck Fusion any better
than than they do here. A few Office
seekers of this city issued call for a
grand Union Convention, and made a
big blow" about sustaining the I'M
ion, &c, &c. Well, the appointed day
for holding the convention arrived,
but the people" did not arrivc--nei-
Their were any delegates present ex-
cept two or three from this city. A
few got together and adjourned the
thing" to the 2Sth of August, and
circulars have been printed and sent
to those persons in the different parts
OF the State who were supposed to be
sound on the Fusion question, urging
them to endcavor to have their rcspcc-
tive counties represented in the Con-
vention. j. b. Bansman, editor Of
the Commonwealth, a ilk-and-water
newspaper published in this city, is
chairman of the corresponding COM
mittee, and is very jealous; while
such Democrats as Judge Phillips,
G. G. Cole, and others, warmly grasp
the hand of milk-and-water Republi-
cans, and tell them to ego in and get
squeezed :" and they mai get squeez-
cd These Democrats think land in
this they are sound) that if they can
draw enough Republicans into their
Fusion movement to divide the party,
they (the Denis can rely on the sue
cess of their ticket. The only ground
on which the Republican party can
win is to sustain the nominations--go
the Simon-pure Republican ticket
and let Fusion 60 to the ID, where
it belongs.

GEN. Pillows CHAIN CABLE.-Pre-
vious to Gen. Pillow being suppressed
ed by Bishop Polk, he went to New
Orleans and procured huge chain
cable, costing him $4,000, and
brought it to Memphis to blockade
the river, by stretching it over and
resting it upon buoys ! The cable,
carriage and work cost about $50 900.
The first big tide that came, bring
ing down the usual amount of trees,
logs, and driftwood, swept away his
cable and its supporters, as any fiat
boat captain would have informed the
Confederate authorities would certain
ly be the case. This is no idle tale,
but sober reality, and we shall send
the account of this affair on to the
Confederate forces, to be tried on the
Potomac, on James River and in the
Chesapeake Bay !-Knorrilic ( 7sna. }

Who arc John Wright and d. H.
Shannon? Andy Felt writes to the
New Hampton Courier that they are
Floyd County boys, lis that SO p who
enlisted in Capt. Gardeners Company,
and on arriving at Burlington refused
to take the oath, as did also Thomas
Biggar and John Laird, of Bradford.
He adds:
"These fellows were followed to the
camp gates by hundreds of indignant
soldiers, amid the boots and groans
of the crowd, and roll of the drums.
If these boys are not tender in the
"rear" they can stand stronger appli-
cations of boot leather than most men.
A squad of the boys followed the rem
egades to Burlington, found them, and
made them give up the uniform shirts
furnished by the patriotic friends at
home. When Chickasaw county in
guires about the "ten dollars paid
these men, just charge it to +" account
OF JAN ana square the BOOKS. The
poor devils were left shivering in
shame on the bank of the river and
if they ever disgrace the Cedar val
ley by their presence, let them he
treated as they deserve"
Since the above was put in type VIC
learn that John Wright was enlisted
and fitted out at New Hampton, in
Chickasaw county and that d. II
Shannon was living in Bradford
Chickasaw county, at the time he en-
listed, and, moreover, that his clothes
were not taken from him, and he il
still with the Lincoln Guards and 6
member Of the company. So mucl
for the veracity Of our Andy"

NORTHWESTERN TRooPs.-It is begin.

field near Manassas, where so many
regiments of the federal army did

the ones who bore the brunt of the

poisoning occurred in the family of
Mr.. Plank, last week, who resides
about a mile west of town. A solu-
ton of cobalt had been placed on
table for destroying flies, and little
boy about three years old, child-like,
took notion to taste of it. The
poison took such effect that no medi-
cal could counterfeit it, and the child
died in a short time Waukom Jour.

ER.-Nevcr leave things lying
about--a shawl here, a pair of slip
pers there, and a bonnet somewhere
else-trusting to servant to set
things to rights. No matter how
many servants You have, it is a mis-
cradle habit, and if its source is not
in the intellectual and moral charac-
ter, it will inevitably terminate there.
If you have used the dipper, towel,
tumblcr, etc, put them back in their
places, and you will know where to
find them when you want them again.
Or if you set an example of careless
ness, do not blame your servants for
following it. Children should be taught
to put things back in their placed as
soon as they are old enough to use
them and if each member of the
family were to observe this simple
rule, the house would never get much
out of order, and large amount of
vexation and useless labor would be
avoided.

lar occasions everything passed of quietly
| The amplest civil and military preparation
were made by the municipal authorities and
General Scott, to provide for any emergency
that might arise. The various bodies ofU. s.
troops now here were stationed in different
parts of the city, the sappers and miners alone
being in the procession.
! Lieut.. Gen. Scott, it is said, was near the
Capitol with Capt. Barry's comp1ny Of light
artillery, and Maj. Haskins command, acting as
infantry.
During the day the military patrols were on
duty al over the city, and the greatest vigilance
was enjoined upon and observed by the regulars.
The display Of sodiery in the procession was
very fine, but not equal to that Of the 22d oil
February. The companies were quite numsr-
Gus, but Of small size, as rule. The Republi-
can association was placed in the order Of march
Immediately after the ex- Presidents. This Jr-
ganizat'on had with them sort of trIumphal
car, drawn by four white horses, each with a
white cloth cover on, with the word "Union"
in large letters The word Constitution" was
on the side. The car was decorated with min
ature flags with red, white and blue drapery,
and contained thirtyfour little girls, represent
ing so many States, and two young ladies res
pectively representing the North and South.

we're in the procession, marching four abreast,
and wearing badges with the word New York"
on them. Several other large deleg .tions also
joined in the line.
The scene presented from each front was
very fine. The avenue in front OF the portieo
was throDged.
The crowd extended to great distance on
either side, and reached into the Capitol grounds
and every available spot was black with human
beings, clngng to the rails, mounted on fences,
and climbing trees, On the outer edge, a con-
course of volunteer soldiery were halted and
stood at rest.

Some weeks ago, we were kindly apprised
from q source rery influential about the City
Hall that THE TRIBUNE, with other City jour
mails which are its more immediate rivals, was
about to be placed by the present Common
COUNCIL on the list of newspapers employed to
publish generally the proceedings of the COun-
cils and other matters, whereby some $40, 900
70 $l5,000 per annum is realized by each daily
paper so employed at the cost of our taxpayers
A few dos a.terward, two or three "big things"
were brought to light in those Councils, which
were decidedly though temperately opposed by
The TRIBUNE, but which were allowed 70 pass
in silence by The Times aud by Tie World.
We now perceive-entirely without surprise
that TEE TRIBUNE has not been placed on the
lit of Corporation papers, while The Times and
The Horid hare been. Curious coincidence,
