them unprovided for and our efforts must
be in proportion to the demand upon us.
This battle will be followed by vast
amount of sickness, owingto the hardships
attending the battle. and the exposure con

consecutive days since its occurrence. An
other battle is imminent; fthe Confederates
do not attack our forces, an advance will

The public anxiety in relation to the fac
OF our esteemed fellow citizen, Capt. j. M.
HedIick. has been somewhat relieved during
the past week, by intelligence cleaned from
numerous soldiers returned from the battle
field, to the effect that he was known to
have been wounded twice in one Of his legs
but not, as it is supposed, seriously !; that he
was urged to retire to the rear that he and
another officer. also wounded were sitting
together on the field, when the order came
to fall back, and that almost instantly an
avalnnch Of rebels came upon them, cutting
on all chance Of escape. From these facts
snd the additional one that careful search
was made for him after the battle, withou,
finding any trace Of him, II is inferred that
he was taken prisoner, and is now at Corinth
What the probabilities may be, of hear n /.
from him very soon If prisoner, we canno.
say. Probably not very aattering.
In tie mean. we seem to be justified in
the belief that his wounds arc not dangerous,
and that &ough in the hands of the rebels,

The Recent Elections.

our ncighbors were last week over the Chi
cago election. We thought we had sect.
people tolerably well pleased before; for in
stance, good share Of the people about here,
when the news Of the battles at Donclson,
Pea Ridge, &C., first came to | and, mani
tested certain degree OF qualification; but
we must confess that all our ideas OF human
ecstacy derived from those occasions were
decidedly formal, cold. and uninteresting.
In fact our ncighbor pleasantly says that this
piece Of news, the election of Democratic
Mayor in a Republican city by some 1000
majority. is the great event Of the times, SC
much so that It may lie regarded as death
blow to the rebellion.
Now we would not il we could, interfere
In the slightest degree with the happy frame
Of mind of our neighbor, for We shall al
ways he glad to see him enjoying himself
although what is meat for him may not al
ways be the same for Us; but we desire
merely to say while the subject is up, that
our neighbor's victory in Chicago was no
Democratic victory at ALL twas not so for
many reasons. No democratic issue was
involved, Sherman running upon the strong
est kind ola Union, war, AMI the support
Of the administration ticket; and majority
Of the votes cast were not in any sense dem.
ocratic. The fight, in the election, was be-
tween the Wentworth and anti W entworth
men, the former. to great extent, voting
for Sherman, to beat Holden. This in ad
dition to the fact that good many Repub
licans had cried no party s" loud and long
that they thought their no-partyism could
only be established by voting for a party
democratic ticket, and the other fact that oil
shades Of democrats, Union and Secession
war and anti-war men, united by a common
and characteristic desire for public plumber
accounts fully for this great Democratic
Victory in Chicago"
Dubuque, we think, is small favors thank
fully received. 4 city where they have
some 1900 democratic majority when the
Republicans are all at home, elects demo.
cratic ticket by hundred or 50, amid shouts
for jeff Davis, the Merrimac, &c. The Wer-
enry may see ground for rejoicing over
fits victory and its accompanying saturnalis
and treason, but we can't see the 'nub' os it.
In fact this talk about party triumphs at
this time is sheer nonsense. There is now
practically no political difference among the
people Of the north. The war is the only
issue. All the politics now cxtant is found
among old political bell weathers of the de-
funct democracy, who expect to be candi-
dates for Office, and will then want votes.-
The country has no time and no taste at
present for anything of the sort When the
rebellion is crushed, when the people are re-
licved from the anxiety and excitement now
weighing upon and intensely occupying the
public mind, political issues will be made
up. What those issues will be, it is impos-
sible to say. We are certain, however, OF
one thing, and that is, that no party will
make up it's creed from the files Of the Dem.
ocratic Mercury.
