CAMP GILBERT, NEAR FoRr SMELLING
October 2lst, 1862.
FRIEND HILDRETH AS you are al.
ways interested in the welfare Of Iowa
troops. ] thought would write you
few lines to inform you with respect
to the 27th Iowa Regiment. We left
Camp Franklin, Oct. llth, and arri-
we'd at ST. Paul the 18th, and after a
march Of seven miles we came to the
we'll known place, Fl Smelling, and
pitched our tent in the vicinity. The
next morning our Colonel told us that
he must report to Gen. Pope at ST,
Paul. After a few hours absence he
returned. telling us that Companies
A, B, G, E, F. and G., { Company G
includes our much esteemed Captain
Slocum's Company must be ready 10
march the following morning, but on
account Of teams no. being ready,
they were compelled to remain until
the next day. Accordingly, on FRI
day, Oct. 18th. the companies named
started for Melach. a place about one
hundred miles from Fit. Smelling. The
object, | am informed, is to attend a
payment that the Government is to
make to the Chippewa tribe of Indi-
ans. The other four companies are
to remain in camp until the six absent
ones return. which will probably be
fifteen days from the time they left
camp.
The camp rumor is that they will
have brush with the red skins, but,
as the boys say. let them have it. If
they do. assure you that they
will clean out one nest Of the red
scamns. They have two 6-pound field
pieces with them, which are to be
managed by the boys of the regiment.
They have chosen Lieutenant Reini-
ger, of Company G, for the Captain
Of the artillery Company. The choice
is undoubtedly good one. 1t is ex-
pected, however, that the artillery is
only TO act for the present trip.

Western New York is enormous. The
Rochester Adrsrtiser says that they
can now be had at fifty cents per

having an orchard of choice grated
fruit, offered his crop for twelve and a
half cents per bushel, the purchaser
to gather the fruit and take only such
as he wanted and could sell as mer-
charitable fruit. the offer was not

The vote of the soldiers of Iowa
disposes of the oft-repeated lie that a
majority of them arc Democrats. The
regiments vote three or four, to one,
Republican. No regiment has yet
given a Democratic majority or any

The Mahonyites are now awfully
down upon soldiers voting. Before
the election they had nothing to say.
They sent lying addresses to the sold
iers, and sent cart loads of tickets.
They wrote the most urgent appeals
to officers and men. Every Democrat
in the Legislature voted for the law
allowing the soldiers to vote. Now
that the soldiers have voted, and vo-
ted against the so called Democratic
party, we are told the law is uncon-
stitutional-that the soldiers have no
right to vote, and if their votes elect
any body the election will be contest
ed. Such is Iowa Mahony Democra-
cy. No citizen or soldier has any
rights which they are willing 10 re-
spect who does not vote their ticket.

ROBERT DALE OW EN.

We publish upon our first page II most
remarkable letter from Robert Dale owen,
written to President Lincoln on the subject
of Emancipation This letter cannot fail to
attract earnest attention from every patriot
i'm the North We commend il especially to
the bogus Democracy of the present day
We commend il especially to those who
are so eager to moot ut tho true Union men
of the country, and who are ever ready tc
stigmatizo the Jealous patriot as q a"howllng
Abolitionist" Il beats in unison with the
chords of every loyal heart II il the
voice of the patriot divcstod of every party
consideration. II is the voice of one who
values the life of his country at the sacri-
flee. if necessary, OF every other interest
either local or general in its nature. 1t If
the voice of ono who has for many years
stood pre.cminent in the Democratic party
of one who is still Il Dcmocrat--but who
is Democrat in the broadcast sense Of that
term. 1t is the voice of one who will mover
stoop TO the grade of Secession sympa

but u single right to accord to traitors -
Death. Robert Dale Owen has long been 4
statesman of high reputc, possessing mine
of highly gifted politico-philosophical pow
cr, and enlarged by discipline and learning
The tone of this letter exhibits an earnest
vitality of thought that produces an effect
of thrilling interest. What bearing it had
upon the issue of lincon's Proclamation, OF
course, we cannot say but five days after
the writing of this letter the Emancipation
Edict was borne with tclcgraphic swiltncss
throughout the Union, aud it has now he
come an historical fact in the annals of our
nation. The worslippors of aristocracy
and the lovers OF slavery may dcnouncc II
but they will find their puny efforts of little
avail, for the Emancipation Decree is the
God given lever which will hurl Oppression
from its throne and give fresh impetus ii
The cause of humanity.
