Democratic County Conventions.


These meetings of the democracy are
being held all over the State at this
time. So far as we are able to learn,
the action ts, without an exception, en-.
ergetic and perfectly hal monious. The
firm determination to make a bold
stand aud brave fight in this cam
paign, pervades the entire organization.
For party that has been pronounced
dead by abolition doctors, there is a
wonderful degree Of life and activity.
The coming State Convention will IN.
doubtedIy be the best attended of any
that has ever, been held in the State.
Every organized county in the State
will have delegation there. and if we
observe matters correctly, there will be
most unanimous decision to give the
opposing party such trial as it las
never before experience in Iowa. And
80 may it be. s@4.

too soon. $50.
When Gen. Mcclellan left the vicin'
;.v Of Washington, and took bis division
down to Fortress Monroe, for the pur
pose of appearing in force before the
rebel army at Yorktown, he had made
bis plans for falling upon the enemy
With an overwhelming force. His plant
we're of the most elaborate and detailed
character. He had counted up hi
strength, and had 20 thoroughly instrnc
ted bis army that he seemed to know
exactly what be could accomplish with I
given number of men-those men whose
education in the matter and use Of srm'
he had 90 satisfactorily achieved. Ht
had taken time for all this, as every
competent General will when work Of
such vast magnitude is before him.
Gen. Mcclellan left for yorktown.
But what Of bis plans Were they
carried into effectp No; the powers
at the Capital interfercd. The officers
Of the Cabinet, considering themselves
bettor posted in military affairs than
Gen. Mcclellan, withheld q portion
one-third Of his army, and kept it back
to do nothing. Instead of bsggiDg the
rebel army on the Peninsula-at York
town, as was calculated upon, an evscu'
ation,-one of those mastery strategi-
cal moves of rebellion-took place.
There was no power in the hands OF
the General to prevent it. His plans
had been interfered with, and the men
he wanted to tie up the mouth Of the
bag were still held back by the Admin.
istra,ion Generals, and in his dispatches
to the War Department, he tells the
Secretary that he is compelled to make
another change in his manner of con.
Quoting the campaign.
Since that time and until quite recent
~ no re-infOrcements were sent him.
The rebels wero concentrating at Rich
moud,-they gave every evidence that
they intended to make the death strug
gle there; still weeks elapsed before it
could be seen at Washington that the
Kitchen Colonels Of the Cabinet had re
ally made mistake, and that after 1.-the
force that had been withheld was actual
ly needed in the vicinity of Richmond.
Tue troops arc going there now; Nc
Clellan is being amply reinforced we
trust. Time has INDICATED his plans,
and shown how absurd it is for depart
mental poiltlclans to NEEDLE with the
matters o! so ponderous campaign. The
lesson should not be forgotten by them
1t is now probable that within twenty
days will be fought ono Of the bloodiss'
battles ever known in civilized warfare
Two armies OF dimension closely approx
imsting to too hundred thousand me,
each are now near Richmond. The wari
OF Europe furnish no parcllel as to mum
bers, and it may be that none were as
bloody. A short time will decide. The
result is Of deepest importance. The
country may be gladdened-may be
shocked as they hear it. Wait patiently.

FLOYD AND PnLow.-It appears from the
later accounts that Floyd and Pillow man.
aged to escape BY way of the river the night
before Fort Donelson was surrendered. 1t
seemed pity, at first, that such first class
traitor as Floyd should have the good luck
to keep his thievish carcase out Of the hands
OF the Union troops. We must console our
selves with remembering that be who is born
to be hung will never fail in battle. We
should much prefer to have Floyd caught by
L. 5. Marshal than taken by capitulation.
Pillow has learned something in castr4meta
ton since be built his famous fort with the
ditch on The inside. lie has learned that
the safest place for him, when the national
forces are after him. one where he can take
to his heels with his enemy behind him.

The nation was happy MOndaY-at least
as far as the telegraph could carry the news
OF the surrender Of Fort Donelson-and with
reason; for it is the greatest event of the
war
Let US compare its results for moment,
with those of the greatest rebel victory
of the war Bull Run left in Gen.
Bsauregard's hands, as he states in his
tardy report, about l, 900 of our troops, in
GLIDING none of higher rank than Colonel,
and but two or three Of those this victory
gives US about ten times as many prisoners,
with two Generals, and Colonies plenty.
We lost eighteen field pieces at Bull Run.
We have taken at Fort d onelson, forfv-eght
field pieces and seuenteen siege cannon. The
muskets taken By Beauregard at Bull Run,
numbered about 500, at his own figures
The small arms taken by Gen Grant. are
t,peay thousand stand, or forty ames as
many.
That fight left the victors too severely
tered to follow up their success foi L e
is-gue. This fight has hardly ended core
our forces are pushing en- to new victories on
tHs line of the Cumberland. The Union
reverse but nerved the North to more vigor-
oos effort. This rebel defeat sends fear and
trembling throughout Secesia, and horrors

The charge at Roapoke Island, like tn dsyo-

EscAPE OF THE NASHVILLE.

The most interesting item Of the news by
the Edinburgh, which arrived at New York
Tuesday, was the escape Of the Nashville
from Southampton, the Tuscarora being pre-
vented from following her by British frig-
ate under orders from the Government. The
Sumter was reported at Gibraltar. without
Goals or money to buy any.
The Nashville left Southampton on the
81 and passed the Tuscarora of Cowes,
where she was anchored. She steamed up.
but the irigatc Shannon was alongside 10
prevent her departure for 2l hours.
The Nashville was last seen outside the
Needles, steaming down the chanael at iull
speed.

lst, has arrived at Liverpool with cargo Of
cotton.
The English journals generally applau d
Earl Russel's letter to the Admiralty rela-
tive to the use Of British ports by pellise
rents.
Tic Posi- thinks the letter must give uni
versal satisfaction, and eflctually check
such irregular proceedings as those OF the
TIsclrora and Nashville
Il saws the immediate effect Of the publ
cation Of the circular viii be the departure
ofb1th the Nashville and TuscarJra from
Southampton, and it charges the captain
of the latter with all sorts Of irregularities

Later intelligence from Fort Donelson an
u5uuces that the Cen Johnston, taken
prisoner, is not Gen. Albert Sydney john

This is a large discount. The former Is a

Of no great note.
