From our own Correspondent.

I am glad to see that the Republican nomi-
nees for the county Offices have appointed
meetings at which to meet and address the
people. The candidates are all so well known
that it would seem hardly necessary for them
to canvass the county, and the question of the
day is presumed to be well understood by ALL
Yet the custom has become so thoroughly fix
ed, that the candidates will be expected to visit
different parts of tie county; and there may
be some of the newer citizens who do not
know all of them. l hope, therefore, that the
appointments will be filled and that the peo-
pie will turn out to meet the candidates
There does not seem to be any question of
real debate, but yet speeches ON the subject
of the war, its origin, its tendency, &C., may
do much good, both in throwing light upon it
in the minds of many and in stirring up the
patriotism of the people.
am sorry to learn that Mr.. Campbell will
probably not be able to attend the meetings,
at present, at least. He was obliged to un-
dcrgo an operation Saturday, on his wound,
which was pretty severe. The wound was
cut and probcd in order to find and extract
the ball, but the operation was without favor
able result, the ball still remaining in his leg,
and he is ordered by his surgeon to remain
quiet I hope none will forget Mr.. Campbell
because he does not appear among them, but
let them remember that he is still suffering in
the cause Of his country from a wound re-
ceived at the battle of Wilson's Creek. This
fact should speak louder for him than any
speech he might make. G.

WE CAN TAKE CARE OF OURSELVES. -The
Chicago Tribune expresses great fears that
because the Republicans of Iowa did not for
swear their party organization, they will re-
ceive trouble at the hands of certain partizans
whose affection for whatever is labeled ''Dem-
ocratic,' though it leads to treason and dis
grace, will lead them to support Mason Our
respectable contemporary may dismiss his
fears. The Republicans of Iowa are abun-
dainty able to take care of themselves. The
reasonable Democracy of Iowa amounts to a
small moiety Of the party. The great major
ity of Democrats in this State are true and
loyal, and will not support Mason. With
these the Republicans have no quarrel. They
recognize none as enemies except the enemies
OF their country. We have no doubt that
the Democratic candidate for Governor will
receive many votes from those who will not
believe his disloyality, but the intelligent and
patriotic portion of his party will refuse to
give him any encouragement whatever.

Our Ticket.

The Republicans of Muscatine County
have every encouragement and incentive to
work for their ticket. Their platform is pure
and patriotic, and their candidates men of
merit and ability. Our opponents have placed
ticket in the field, which, while it is not
the strongest they could have chosen, they
will use their utmost endeavors to elect.
They have adopted local platform well
enough itself, but are at the same time by
their county organ giving their sympathy
and aid to q REASONABLE movement in the
State. 1t becomes every Republican, there
fore, to work for his ticket, and see that no
man is elected to office in this county unless
he is decidedly and unreservedly for the
Union. The Republican candidates are men
of this stripe. Vote for them.

HE PRESIDENT INSTRUCTIONS TO GENERAL
FREAoNT.-The President has undoubtedly
committed blunder in narrowing down Gen.
Fremont's proclamation to the liberation of
slaves that have borne arms against the gov
eminent, or have been employed upon some
naval or military work against the authority
of the United States. The rebels have no
right to claim exemption Of any kind by vir-
tue Of any law of Congress or provision Of
the Constitution, both of which they reject
and despise. Their slaves should be confis-
Gated as soon as their money or their stock.
We are sorry that Gen. Fremont could not
have been left unrestrained in the line of poll
oy he had marked out.

HuGn j. CAMPBELL, Eso.-This gentleman,
the Republican and Uuion candidate for Treas
urer and Recorder, is still confined to his
room by the painful nature of the wound re-
ceived by him at the battle of Wilson's Creek.
He is thus rendered unable to attend the
meetings being held by the candidates in va
rious parts of the county, but hopes to be able
to attend those set for next week. We trust
that the friends of Mr. Campbell will see that
his interests do not suffer On account of his
inability to attend to them himself. An ex-
emplary young man, public spirited citizen
and brave soldier, as he is, he should, and
doubtless will, receive an enthusiastic support
at the polls.

INJURY TO TIE Crops OF THE SouTH.- Sc.
rious fears aye entertained for the crops of
the South. The rains of August are repor-
ted as the heaviest and the most general ever
known in the South and have been very dis
astrous. The Savannah Republican claims
fair rice crop, but admits the continued
rains have damaged it somewhat. The Bat
on Rouge ADVOCATE says the cotton crops in
that vicinity are literally covered with the
army worm, and that the fate of tho crop
will be sealed in few days, for the rain and
heavy atmosphere is favorable to the worm.

A HORSE PANIC-TERaIBLE STAMPEDE OF
OVER THREE HUNDRED HoRsEs.-The st. Lou
is Democrat gives the particulars of terrific
horse stampede in that city at three o'clock
on Saturday morning last, by WHICH, such
was the blind fury Of the horses, many were
knocked down and trampled to death, and
one man killed. The horses Gao in number)
had been confined in rather crowded quarters
in an old lumber yard fog several days, and
broke loose by pressing down light fence.
The Democrat says:
The occurrence happening at so early an
hour was not attended with such fearful con-
sequences as would have resulted had the
stampede taken place at q later hour. As it
was the streets were open and almost desert
ed, and but few disastrous occurrences re-
suited, but those must have been fearful, be-
yond description. Five large government,
wagons encountered one division not far from
the spot where the stampede began The
wagons were short distance apart, and all
the drivers except the first escaped. The
horses attached to the first wagon were knock
I'd down and crushed to death. Two or three
of those coming in sudden contact with the
wagon were crushed and trampled to death
by those behind them. Some springing with
their full weight upon the wagon, 6rolg ht it
to the ground, crushing the driver in man
ner such as to occasion his death in a few
hours afterward. The second wagon was al
SO literally smashed to peices, dead horse
being found beside the wreck. Eight or ten
horses were found dead at various short dis
tances from the lumber yard where they start
ed, and two inside the yard. The fact that
the stampede was kept up for great distance
is proven by the fact Of dead horses being
found at distances of two, three and four
miles away from the yard. Nearly all of the
horses have been recovered and taken back to
the lumber yard. Yesterday they were being
brought in during the day from every direc-
tion-some from ten miles above the city and
some from below the arsenal.

soldering in Musca4nc with the Light and
Governors Guards, for they have not all got
their uniforms YETI There are great many
cavalry and artillery companies here, the num-
Der of which we have not ascertained. Buers
flying artillery is here. The Illinois 9TH Is
stationed on the right, and the bloody Iowa
7th on the left wing, which places us in very
prominent position.
We have received since we have been in
service, blanket, pair of shoes, shirt, 2
pair of socks. While we were at jackson we
had our uniform sent to us and distributed to
each company. When the boys came to look
at them they refused to take them. 1t con-
sisted of blue roundabout and pants, colored.
The Colenel ordered them to be boxed up and
sent back. Our Adjutant started to StLouis
a few days ago to get our unif rms; he will be
back tomorrow and then l expect we will be
all dressed up. There is one thing, the boys
have all made up their minds not to take it
unless it is No. l, which it will undoubtedly
be. The boys of Co. A are all we'll except
Purham, Dodder, Pearson, Lamare and Ser
geant Armstrong. There is none Of them
considered dangerous.
The Conestoga (gun-boaD had an engage
ment with battery seven miles below u.s.
They silenced their battery and could see
them carrying people out of it, which led them
to suspect that they had killed or wounded
some Of them. The gunboat Yankee, in try
ing to assist, got her wheel-house knocked off.
No damage was done to the Conestoga. She
has temporary guns on her.
Last night about dark the long roll was
beat which made the boys get out in double
quick time, all anxious for brush, but it
proved to be a fash in the pan. Everything
remains quiet at present.
They are throwing up heavy entrench-
nents at this point. and no boats are allowed
