CoxlSe TO IowA.-We learn from various
sources that there is prospect Of large immi-
grafton to this State the coming year. The PEG.
pie of New England are beginning to learn Of
the superiority Of our virgin prairie soil, to the
rock strewn soil of New England. The low pri-
ces of lands at the present time, and the fair
crops that have been harvested for the past sew.
eral years in Iowa, are acting as strong incen-
tives to lead men to give up their cramped little
farms, and come out and settle upon our broad
prairies, whose soil is ine1haustible and capable
of feeding millions. Iowa is now showing herself
to be the young giant State of the West In
her material and military strength she is show
ing herself second to none Of her sister States in
proportion to her population.
Her climate is one OF the most healthful in the
world. Here is the home for the migrant Of
every State and nation. Come on We will vel.

John NJ. Vantassel, son of one of our sub.
scribers at Indianola, enlisted more than a
year since in the I'd Wisconsin Infantry. At
the time of his enlistment he was a resi-
dent of Wisconsin, although he had previous.
ly lived in Indianola, Some months since
while the army of the Potomac was in the
vicinity of Acquia Creek, John and another
volunteer left their quarters to hunt up some
hay to sleep on. They did not return. Their
bodies "were afterwards found in barn
suspended by the heels with log chains
and their threats cut from ear to earl" We
are indebted to the Indianola Visiter for an
account Of this case of rebel brutality.

The LAND FORCES OF McCLIRNAND AND THE
FLEE7~O1- ,PoRIER.-The feet OF boats which
carried the 9th and 99th Indiana regiments to
Columbus, Kentucky, returned on Monday
From officers of these boats the New Albany
Ledger gathers the following information with
reference to Gen. xcClernand's Mississippi river
expedition: The expedition is being organized
on q gigantic scale-Columbus being the point
Of rendezvous Major General McClernand is
now there, giving his personal superintendent
to the armament and equipment Of the forcer,
and taking all the necessary steps to ensure the
success of the expedition. His corps d. arn,ee
will consist entirely Of Western and Northwest.
ern regiments. l: will embrace ten regiments
from Indiana, twelve regiments from Illinois,
four regiments from Iowa, four regiments from
Wisconsin, two regiments from Minnesota, and
some ten thShsand troops, infantry, cavalry, and
artillery, from the army now in Kentucky, pro-
ably q portion of Gen. G. w. Morgan's command
and q portion of the late command of General
Granger. The'cavalry and artillery force will
be ample for any emergency. 80 " +" ss1
In addition to this force, the gunboat feet
under Com. Porter will CO. operate with the
expedition. The fleet of Com. Porter consists
Of the following vessels: Benton (hagshipA..
Capt. Gwinn, 16 gune; Eastport, Capt. Phelps,
Is guns; Csrondelet, Capt Wilkes, Is guns:
Cincinnati, Capt. Stemble, Is guns, Cairo, Capt.
Bryant, 10 guns; Mound City, Capt. Wilson, l3
guns; Louisville, Capt Meade, Is guns; Baron
DeKalb formerly st. Louis), Capt. Winslow,
IS guns; ESSEX, Capt Porter, guns; Lexine-
ton, Capt Shirk, guns; making total Of ten
gunboats and l21 guns e7
The first great obstacle for the expedition to
overcome will be the formidable Notifications at
Vicksburg. But when it is remembered that
Commodore Tarragut with his feet Of gunboats
and mortar-boats, is below these works, End can
easily cooperate With the feet from above it
will be seen what an overpowering force will be
brought to bear for the reduction of the rebel
stronghold at Vicksburg. - SO ~.
The attack upon Vicksburg last summer,
failed for want of cooperating land force on
our part McClernsnds expedition will obviate
this want in the future, and when Vicksburg is
again attacked it will be taken by storm by Nc
Clernands troops. Vicksburg captured, and the
way 10 comparatively clear to New Orleans
The expedition of Gen. McCleInaud will be
ready to move by the 10Th of December, at far
thest, perhaps earlier. It will be followed by
the gunboats Of Gen. Elicit, who will have
large force of infantry, cavalry, and artillery.
TO keep the river clear Of guerrillas and rebel
batteries. Gen. Ellett's command will be quar-
tered upon armed transports, so that it can be
moved rapidly to any point where it's presence
may be required; and it will have, in conjunc-
ton With the gunboats, complete surveillance
OF the lower Mississippi and ito navigable tribu-
taries, go that when the river is once opened. it
will remain open, and its navigation become en-
tirely safe to steamers.-[Louisville Journal,

GxryRAiD, the President Of Hayti, is known
for his clemency. But this clemency is not the
careless act of man with whom everything has
gone we'll. On the contrary, Jeffrard's heart
hae been wrung by the keenest woes that can
try man, all in direct connection with the ex.
ercise of his power. His only son, = youth Of
eighteen, died of exhaustion and fatigue, brought
on by his exertions in that blessed and we'll nigh
bloodless revolution which carried his father to
the Presidency. His eldest daughter died in
childbirth from anxiety for her father. His
youngest daughter became the victim Of one Of
the most dastardly murders recorded in history.
Yet nothing of all this has availed to sour OF
freeze the mans long suffering generosity. A
general officer in attendance upon him resolved
to murder him, and Geffrard knew of it. Taking
with him the would-be ASSASSIN, be went to the
cemetery, at the gate of which he left two
''guides" who had accompanied him, and pro-
ceeded to his sons grave. Having reached, it he
turned to his companion and said: II know
you carry pistols to sheet me on the e rst oppor.
tunity Do it here. Let me fall on the grave of
my son. Do you hesitates" he proceeded, after
a moment; "take my pistols il your own fail
your The spirit Of the assassin was disarmed;
he was forgiven, and retained his rank.
