The shrill whistle Of the locomotive is again
heard. Supplies Of all kinds are now being
TRANSPORTED over the railroad TO this point, The
telegraph is being repaired, aud large gangs Of
workmen have commenced removing the rub

The boats for the Dontoon bridge have al,
rcadyarrived They will immediately be placed
in position. Immense numbers otso'dsors have
forded the Potomac, there being no means q
conveyance across the river at present.
One long continuous train d supply ana

TnE NmIRALlEg OF fRANcE,-7lt has been
pretty freely minated, both in late French and
English papers, especially the latter, that
France was Just ready to interfere IN our Ma

accompanied THESE statements,and much anxiety
mas been shown to ace what alluslou the Emperor
would make e. Americas affairs IN ms epeeeh at

Juro brings the following, which will doubtless
nave quleting effect upon our apprehonsiono
Napoleon opened the French Chamber on the

greatly compromised our commercial interests.

We doubt whether our English enemies can

is nAuu from the language that Napoleon does
not Yet see any just cause for interference, and

THE VOTE IN THIS CONGRESSIONAL
DISTRICT.

Returns sufficient have been received by
us to indicate that Judge Hubbard is elected
to Congress from this District by about $500
majority We give Hubbard's Majorities as
far as heard from: as-. ... ......
Black Hawk, 42a; Grundy, us; Rntler,
1872 Hardin, 9S9; Franklin, 1856; Humboldt,
IS; Kossuth, "a; Story, 100; Woodbury.,
90; Marshall, $50; Crawford 80. The above
is the civilian vote, and foots up 1903. Add
the following majorities from the soldiers: -
32nd regiment, 372; 10th, IL; Goth, IA {;
seth, 10; 2lst, 8; 9th, 10, 10th, II; 3lst.
1O4, which foots up GOT. This added to the
civilian vote makes his majority 2,slo. Web
stcr County gives Duncombe 3s majority {;
Boone, l47, and Sioux 8, making his total
majorities, 100. Deduct this from Hubbard's
majorities, and it leaves the latter 2, 90 ahead
The other Counties If the District, and the
soldiers not yet heard from, will increase his
majority by several hundred. ...
That Judge Hubbard is very popular where
best known is proven by the fact that in his
own town he received 35 majority, town
which heretofore has always been Democrat
ic by large majority.

FROM THE FIRST IOWA BATTERY

HELENA, ARK, Oct. sth. 1862.
Mr. EpIroR Having few spare moments
thought would employ them in writing
you few lines. The Presidents Emancipa
ton Proclamation has been differently receiv-
ed by the menbers of this Battery; but the
majority think it is the quickest, and surest
way of putting down this rebellion. We
have been in the South long enough to see
that slavery is the mainstay Of the rebel army.
They can press their whole white population
int the field and have an army Of between
three and four millions of slaves at home to
raise the produce necessary to support them.
Although We are anxious TO have this war
brought to close, we say with Edward Ev-
erett, "Never recognize the Southern Con.
federacy,"-nothing but the Union Is it was
will satisfy US.
Mhere is prospect that We will stay here
for some time to come. There is no rebel
force around here except some two or three
hundred Guerrillas.
In your edition of Friday, Oct. 10th, saw
letter from the Sd Iswa Infantry, inquiring
for Fletchers Battery, we arc now known as
the First Iowa, or Griffeth's Battery.
Those who have friends in this Battery can
address letters to the First Iowa Battery,
