nothing inviting about it, nor is it noted for

As near as can learn there must be about
twenty Iowa regiments here.
There are thousands of contrabands here,

BATTLE IN ARK
BATTLE FIELD NEAR FAYErTvILLE, ARK

Gen. Herron's forces en- route to reinforce
Gen. Blunt, met the enemy yesterday on
Crawiord's Creek, ten miles south of Fay
etteville, Ark, and won decisive victory
over the enemy, twenty -four thousand strong,
divided under four Generals, viz: Marina
duke, Parsons, Frost and Rains, all under
Gen. Hindman, which embraced the flower
of the army of the Mississippi. They were
supported with Is pieces of al ullery. The
enemy fankcd Blunt's position at Cane Hill
and made u sudden dash on Heron. to pre-
vent him uniting with Blunt. Gen. Herron's
force consisted of The Oath III, 10th and
Goth Iowa, 26th Indiana, Goth Wis, and a
battalion or two Of cavalry; in all about g.
500 or 100 men and "a pieces Of artillery.
The battle ragged from ten O'clock until
dark and was desperately fought. Our ar
tilery drove the enemy from two strong po-
sitions and kept their overwhelming numbers
at bay. The Goth Wis, captured 4 rebel
battery of four heavy guns, but were forced
to abandon them under murderous fire.
The 10Th Iowa also captured the same bat
terry, and fought most desperately, but were
also obliged to yield it. Almost every reg-
mcnt distinguished itself.
About four o'clock Gen. Blunt arrived
Il ON Cane Hill with fiv. thousand men and
a strong force of artillery and attacked the
enemy in the rear. They made desperate
efforts to capture his batteries but were re-
pulsed with terrible slaughter. We held the
whole field at dark and before 8 o'clock that
| night the entire rebel army We're in full re-
| treat over the Boston Mountains.
| Our loss in killed and wounded is about
six hundred and that of the enemy fifteen
hundred, by their own admission. Several
of the enemy's field officers were killed.
Among them is Col Stein, commanding brig
AIDE, formerly Brgadier of Missouri State
Guards.
Only few prisoners were taken We cap
tured four cass.ons filled with ammunition.

JUDGE HUBBARD,S MAJORITY.

1t appears that Judge Huhhard's majority
for Congressman from this District is about
1900 instead Of 1881 as heretofore publish
ed. The following from the Fit. Dodge Re-
publican explains how the mistake occurred ::
We notice that the Des Moines Register Of
a recent date, gives Judge Hubbard's MAORI
ty as 1851, and calls it gain of 23l over
the vote of Mr.. Lincoln, two years ago. We
thought eye Locals" knowledge of arith-
metic was better than this. BY the table of
official returns published in that paper, Hub
bard's majority is really 1851, although, by
an error in subtraction, carried out in the
column of majorties as 100 less Besides
this, the counties of Franklin, Emmett,
Winncbago Worth and Ida, from which no
returns were received. all gave Hubbard ma
jorities. How much his aggregate majority
in these counties is we have no means of tell
ing accurately, but estimate it at 500-Frank,
lin alone is reported to have given 143. This
makes Judge Hubbard real majority over
1890 instead of 1881; and his gain over
Lincoln, more than GOO, instead Of 23l.

OARk0TGRE OF GEN. BANKS EXPE
DlTUON. ..--a+.rg------g
lrrom the New York Times. Dec. 81

The military expedition which has been
fitting out at this port for several weeks pas,
under the command of Maj. Gen. N. p
Banks, set sail yesterday, and is now fairly
under way for its final destination. What
that destination is has been the subject OF
much speculation on the part Of the loyal
public and of anxiety on sl1e part Of the reb-
els, but thus far it has been a wcll-kept Sc
crct. Time will soon disclose the mystery,
however, and loyal men, we are sure, can az
ford to wait, and as for the rebels, they will
have to wait, whether they can afford it or
not. The probabilities are that the first an
nouncement of its destination was correct,
and that in due time the expedition will find
its way to the shores Of Texas. For the
present, therefore, and until further advised,
il will be safe to label it with the cid initials,
&c. +. T." The magnitude Of the expo
dition is also subject about which it is not
proper TO 60 into details, for, though not so
much secret as its destination, it is a spe
cies Of contraband news Of which the rebels
already get more than their share, and des
srvc no addition from loyal sources. Suffice
it to say that it is the largest, best equipped
and most formidable expedition that has vet
been sent out by the Government, and on
whatever part Of the Southern coast it may
land, it is safe to predict that results will fol
low corresponding with its magnitude, and
justifying the most sangulne expectations of
the Government and the people Of the North.

FRENCH INTERVENTION.

A dispatch from Washington states that
private letters from France represent that
the Emperor is still bent on intervention
He wants an armistice of six months during
which time the rebels can sell him their cot
ton and supply themselves for a renewal Of
the war. Our Government, of course, can
not listen to any such ridiculous proposition,
and Napoleon must content himself with di-
plomatic notes, unless he is ready to employ
military and naval power to enforce his wish
es. But in that event he would obtain no
cotton; he world get war of larger proper
tons and longer duration than has entered
INTO his calculations. An interference in the
American family quarrel on the part Of
France, would hasten the termination Of the
rebellion, sweep French commerce from the
seas and end in kicking his red legged Zou-
ayes cut Of Mexico.-Ch Chicago Tribune.

COMPLEMENTARY TO COL. TlsUM-


Lieut. Col. Trumbull, of the Third Iowa,
recently resigned his commission on account
of i'll health. At meeting of the regiment
held at La Grange, OH the 2lst ut., the fol-
lowing resolutions was unanimously adopt
ed:
| Reso1red That while in command Of this
Regiment Col. M. NJ. Trumbull has given
universal satisfaction to the officers and men
under him.
Resoloed, That by the resignation of Colo
mel Trumbull our Regiment has lost a popu-
lar and efficient officer, his brother officers a
sociab(e and generous companion, and the
Government one of its coolest and bravest
soldiers.
Resolcea, That we deeply regret the cir.
cunstance that has forced him to resign. and
our sincere wishes for the speedy recovery
of his health accompany him in his retire
ment.
Resolred, That Col. Trumbull by his cool
ness and bravery at the battles Of Blue Mills,
Shiloh and the Hatchic, has made record
that is eaualled by few and surpassed by none
and should last while GOODNESS is approved
and bravery commended.
Resolred, That these resolutions express
the sentiment of the entire regiment, both
officers and men, to the best Of our knowl-
edge.
The Colonel responded impronptu, in sub
stance as follows:
Major Kea5les, and Gentlemen II am
overpowered by the generous expressions of
confidence, friendship and sympathy con-
tanned in the resolutions just read to me- 1t
is impossible for me adequately to express
my emotions of regret at the circumstances
which compel me to retire from the service
am thankful to you for these kindly express
sions, but am still more thankful for the
ready obedience and the warm personal re-
gard you have given me during the time |
have been IN the command of the Sd Iowa
Infantry. 1t has been my singular good for
tune, that whilst have always insisted on
the observance of the st,icteSt discipline,
have never heared a murnur nor an unkind
remark from any officer under my command
And the noble and patriotic devotion with
which you have followed the to battle COM
pels my life long gratitude.
will consider it personal favor if you
will convey the sentiments expressed towards
yourselves, to the noble fellows under your
communicative rank and file of the regiment,
the unnamed heroes of this war. They have
chung to me with the afectonate devotion Of
children to parent-assure those that re-
ciprocate their feelings At the bloody brid &c
on the Hatchie, they shouted that they wo'd
follow me anywhere that would lead them,
and they did,
Into the jaws Of dcati, into the mouth of hell"
! And now, gentlemen, wishing you all safe
ty, honor and happiness, and that our glori
Gus cause may soon be crowned with com
plete success, bid you farewell.

THE END OF THE REBELLION -Gen. Banks
was presented with horse by the citizens of
New York last week, just before sailing with
his expedition South, and made speech on
the occasion of the presentation. esaid he
was confident that the Union armies would
severely cripple, if not virtually destroy the
rebellion during the coming winter. Upon
such results the action of foreign govern
ments wsuld no doubt depend. The pos
ition of England was referred to briefly as
one Of uncertainty; but the General believed
that the only way to prevent the interference
Of France was to demonstrate the power of
the Government to put down the rebellion.
Little confidence could be felt in Napoleon.
The French people, however, would no: en-
ter cordially enter into war which must
have the effect Of establishing a slaveholding
eonfedcracy. . ..

NORTH WESTERN ARKANsAs.-Advices from
the Southwest say that the rebels under
Generals Hindman and Marmaduke, % 900
strong, attempted to force General Blunt's po-
sition at Cane Hill, Ark, on the 7th inst, but
were driven back. This morning they drove
Blunt's pckets three miles, bat on the arr-
val Of reinforcements were again repulscd.
Blunt's opinion is that the demonstration
was made to cover their retreat, as they We're
telling timber all night, probably to obstruct
the road and prevent pursuit. Blunt held
the enemy in check four days. General
Heron will reinforce him tomorrow.

GEN. CHANTS ARMY.

The sdviccs from Gen. Grants army of
the Mississippi are interesting. The expc-
dition under Gen. Hovey, which left Helena
by transports few days since, its destina-
ton involved in mystery, landed at Friar's
Point, in Mississippi, just below Helena, and
by rapid marches quietly walked into, and
now hold possession Of Grenada, Miss, the
rebels manifcstmg their usual valor by leav-
ing in time to prevent their capture In the
meantime Gen. Grants army is pushing to-
wards the same point, his advance being in
close proximity to the tmid heels of the fly
ing rebels. When last heard from the adj
vance was beyond Oxford, which is within
forty miles of Grenada. 1t will be seen by
reference to a map of the locality that the
rebels who are trying to get out Of Grants
way will have to make considerable diver
sion from their present heading, or he ground
to powder between the two millstones of
lIovey's and Grants armies. We hope to
hear that they are crushed or captured. with
in few days. Having possession Of Gren-
ada, Vicksburg must fall by its own weight
while jackson and Columbus will almost Ger
tainly rush to our embrace. The rebellion
in the Mississippi Valley, we think is in its
last moon.
