Or where thy stram, Arkansas, rolls

Of whom old Pluto might be jealous;

With bowling throats, and hearts Of gall

Worse than fierce wolves and panthers dread,
Beyond the Alleghenies bred,

PURE INFLUENCES.

Oh if no faces were beheld on earth,
But toilng manhood, aud repining age,
No welcome eyes of innocence and mirlh
To look upon us kindly, who would wage
The gloomy battle for himself alone ,
Look wstfully for light? Who would not gioan
Beueath his daily task, and weep aloud
But little children take us by the hand,
And gaze with trustful cheer into our eyes
Patience and fortitude beside us stand,
In woman's shape, and wats to heaV'n our

The qniltless child holds back the arm of guilt
Upraised to strike, and woman may atone
With siuless tears for sins Of man, ana melt

Gen. Hunters Explanation.

Our readers will remember that on the 9th
ult. the House of Representatives adopted
resolution introduced by Mr.. Wickliffe, of
Kentucky, inquiring of the Secretary of War
as.to whether any instructions in regard to
the organization of black regiments in the de-
partment commanded by Gen. David Hunter,
had been given, and if so what was the nature
of those instructions. Mr.. Stanton replied
that "Gen. Hunter was not authorized by the
Department to organize or muster into service
fugitive or captive slaves" A copy of the
Wickliffe resolution was forwarded to Gen.
Hunter, asking by whatauthority a regiment
of blacks now in service at Port Royal were
detained. Gen. Hunter replies at some
length, and in the course of his remarks
rather gets his grave interlocutors on the hip
He says that no regiment Of fugitive slaves
has been employed in the service of the gov
ernment, but that he has very fine regimen
of persons whose late masters were fugitiv
rebels,'' "all working with remarkable indus
try to place themselves in a position to go il
full and effective pursuit of their fugaciou
and traitorous proprietors." In regard to hi
authority for organizing this regiment he r.
fers his interrogators to the instructions give
his predecessor, Gen. Sherman, and says
-"These instructions do distinctly authori'
me to employ all loyal persons offering the
services in defense of the Union and for Il

1t Should be Stopped.

| We have but little love or respect for those
men, ,who in this hour of peril, will systemati-
cally abuse and villify the Administrations
Do the Democratic leaders and editors not
know that every attempt on their part to
create want of faith in the Government is a
serious detriment to the Nations cause? They
cannot fail to see it, and seeing it they must
appreciate it. Instead of ceasing their brain
know nothing, they seem to re double their
efforts to make the people believe that the
President is a fool and incapable of managing
the affairs of the nation. Is this the part of
true patriots? Will one who loves his coun-
try, when he sees that country struggling for
its own existence, find fault with those who
are using every exertion to maintain it This
scheme got up by politicians to ride into p over
at the cost of thousands Of lives and millions
of money, should meet with the unqualified
disapprobation of every one. The exigencies
Of our cause demand that three hundred thou
sand more soldiers should be enrolled. Now
what do these Iowa Democratic wire workers
do? Instead of giving the Gov ernment their
hearty support, they abuse it roundly and de-
clare that the way things are now managed
there is no hope. The effect of this is ap-
parent The people lose confidence in the
President and his Cabinet They regard the
war as grand swindle to enrich Federal
office-holders, and refuse assistance. Without
this assistance our brave soldiers must be left
to struggle against overpowering forces and
the country goes to perdition. The only sat
isfaction to be obtained is that the contempd-
office-seekers will be absorbed in the general
ruin, and that all will be involved in one COM
mon destruction.
There is but one way, perhaps, to stop
these proceedings, and that is for every true
minded man who is alive to the real state of
affairs to withdraw his support from papers
of this class. Let every Republican and
every lover of his country refuse to counte-
nance any attacks on the Government, and
these semi traitors will soon awake to the
painful consciousness that their villainly is
understood.

Will Iowa ReSDOul .

1t is rumored that the calling out of three
hundred thousand more troops by the Presi
dent is not so much for the purpose of at
tending to the rebels as to take care of our
national enemies across the water. The seven
days fighting before Richmond will, ofcourse,
be magnified into a tremendous Confederate
victory by the rebel emissaries in Europe and
may possibly serve as an excuse for interfer-
ence In such an event that three hundred
thousand will be a very handy thing to have
in the family. No one knows the action of
England and France for day in advance and
it is eminently proper that every precaution
should be taken that we may be prepared for
any emergency.
The question now is, will Iowa furnish her
proportion of this new levy? We think she
will Although designing politicians have
used every endeavor to create want of faith
in the government, the war spirit of our peo-
pie burns as intensely as ever. Notwithstand-
ing the vile attacks made on the Administra-
ton by the doughface press, our word for it
Iowa's quota will be raised, and that too with
out any resort to measures Of conscription.
Men of the Hawkeye State, already has
the Governor issued his call for five
new regiments, which must be filed up i'm
mediately You are to fill them. The people
of the Eastern States are rushing almost as
one man to enlist The cry "to arms" re-
sounds from all sides. The mountains of New
England echo back the war Cry of her thou
sands as they hasten to offer their lives upon
the sacred altar of their country. The mer
of New York and Pennsylvania are organizing
and filling up regiment after regiment with
unexampled rapidity. Will you stand back
and do nothing while your sister States art
doing so much? Shall the bright fame o
Iowa be tarnished? Will our brave soldiers
in the field have to stand the taunt of tn
Eastern soldier, who, as he passes, scornfully
remarks, "Iowa, the State that had to resor
10 CONSUMPTION to save their country?" W.
cannot believe our fellow citizens will fail t
respond to this, thelast call of the govern
ment.
Arouse then, lend yourselves to the work
and let it be said that Iowa was among tn
first to furnish her quota to aid in putin
down the rebellion.

The Congressional Convention.

This body will meet soon, probably at De-
witt. 1t has one of the most important du-
ties to perform that has fallen to the lot of
any political convention since Iowa has been

this district candidate for what is to be
Congress which was ever convened at the
National Capital. The next Congress is
either to witness the death or the salvation of
this Government. 1t behooves the Amcri-

its children, now is the hour and the moment

have this day received from the Secreta

mand that this requisition be promptly met
Our harvest is upon us and we have feared q
lack of force to secure it. But we must i'm
itate our brave Iowa boys in the field, meet
new emergencies with new exertions. Our
old men and our boys, unfit for war, if need
be our women, must help to gather harvests,
while those able to bear arms 90 forth to aid
our brave brethren in the field. The necessi-
ty is urgent. Our national existence is at
stake. The more promptly the President is
furnished the needed troops the more speedily
will this unholy rebellion be crushed, and the
blessings of peace again visit our land Un-
til then we must expect the hardsips and pri-
vatiOns of war.
The time has come when men must make,
as many have already made, sacrifices of ease,
comfort and business for the cause of the
country.
The enemy, by sweeping conscription,
have forced into their ranks all men capable
of bearing arms. Our government has as yet
relied upon the volunteer action of our citi-
zens But if need be, the same energies must
be exerted to preserve the government that
traitors are using to destroy it. TO simplify

The Employment of Negroes.

If the late news from Washington can be
relied upon, the policy of employing negroes
in the suppression of the rebellion will soon
become fixed fact. That such measure
would be right, expedient and just, no think
ing man will deny. This rebellion is an out
rage upon every principle Of humanity and
must be put down. This world cam OF af-
ford to have the Republic blotted from exist
ence merely to crafty the friends of the in
stitution Of slavery. 1t is not the citizens of
the United States alonShat have an interest
in the matter. The down-trodden and op-
pressed millions of the old world look across
the ever surging waters of the broad Atlantic,
and behold in this great and free Govern
ment living monument of mans ability to
govern himself The victim of despotism
reads Of America and loves it as the land
where a man is man, no matter how low
his birth or how humble his prospects,
Untold generations yet to come have a claim
upon us that cannot be denied, and as the
only safety of our country lies in the preser-
vation of the Union, we violate the trust be-
queathed to us by our forefathers if we allow
it to be dissolved.
There are in the Southern States thousands
of men who would hail the privilege of stri-
king blow for the Union as the bondmen of
old hailed the year of Jubilee. Why, then,
should we deprive them of that privilege
If any good through them can attach itself to
our cause it is criminal folly to allow it to pass
by unheeded when it can be had for the
asking The preservation of the Union and
the suppression of the rebellion is the result
to which every thought and every act should
be given. Let us employ every means
placed at our disposal by nature and nature.
God. What boots it that slavery must perish
if the negro is employed in the service o
the country? Does this Government ow'
any love or gratitude to slavery that i
should emperil its own existence in providing
for its safety? Are the people of the Nortl
bound by any obligations to respect tn
property of rebels?
4 1t has been already demonstrated that tn
negro can be employed to good advantage
We can use him to perform the work tina
fills our hospitals and wears out our soldiers
God Almighty made the negro to work unde
the hot rays of a tropical sun. If the neg,
