"Ought not the President to be sustaine

"The President must be sustained. Oul

cratic party.'-Courier, Sept 2itA.
"Let the people, then, who desire to aid
the rebellion, be sure that they put their bal
lots where the President can receive the ben

REMEMBER,
That the Muscatine Courier, edited by the
Democratic candidate for Congress, said "that
the meeting of the Governors of the loyal
States was as reasonable an assem5lage as
the meeting of the rebel Congress, and that
if the President did his duty he would order
Gen. Halleck to dispense them with military
force.
REMEMBER,
That the Courier duplicates President
Lincoln with treason in the meeting of those
Governors.
REMEMBER,
That the Democratic party in Iowa is op.
posed to the Federal Tax-law, opposed to the
,onfiscation of rebel property, opposed to the
arrest of traitors in the North, opposed to the
of the writ of habeas corpus.
REMEMBER,
That the Democratic Platform was framed
~ such traitors and sympathize RS with trea-
ION as a. c. Dodge, Ge'. Gil!aspie, Jim e.
wood, Dennis Mahony, Doct Sales and Ne
Jus.
REMEMBER,
That every vote given for the Democratic
andidates is a vote against. the government,
md will give all and comfort to the rebels |
REMEMBER,
That E. II. Thayer ;says he heartily en-
lorses the Democratic Platform, that there.
ore be is hostile to every earnest measure of |
ne Government to suppress the rebellion.
REMEMBER,
That it was E. H. Thayer who said, after
he firing on Sumter, she was opposed to
aising troops to invade Southern SOIL"
REMEMBER,
That Thayer says ''the President is an alb. |
lition;st, and that an aboltionist is as bad |
s secessionist."
REMEMBER,
That every vote cast for VIM. Gordon ard |
v. b. Langridge is a vote for the support of
hat disloyal sheet, the Courier.
REMEMBER,
That with Gordon for Clerk, and Langridge
or Treasurer, the Courier receives the coun-
y patronage, and lives to oppose the Govern

Tar Iowa 7rn.-This noble regiment has
again covered itself with glory. 1t was in
the last battle where it lost one hundred and
twenty men. We doubt if the regiment
mustered more than four hundred in all when
it went into the fight. 1t has never, since the
battle of Belmont, where it gained its first
reputation by the sacrifice of almost half its
number, been able to muster more than five
hundred and it probably went into this en-
gagement with less than four hundred. Out
of this number over one-fourth have fallen.
The regiment should now be Withdrawn
| from active service and allowed to recruit its
decimated ranks. 1t has won glory enough
for one regiment. We notice among the
wounded Lieut.. Col. Parrot.

Mr.. EDITOR On learning of the nomina-
nation of Mr.. Gordon for the Office of Clerk
of the District Court in opposition to myself
congratulated myself that had for an OPP
ponent worthy, loyal mana man that es-
teemed highly, and one by whom l might be
beaten without being disgraced.
Last Saturday, in canvassing the northern
part of the county, several persons inquired of
me concerning my having taken an oath of al
legiance to the Southern Confederacy. l ex-
planned that such was not the fact-that was
paroled as all prisoners are paroled-that 1
am bound not to bear arms against them un-
til regularly discharged.
Thought nothing more Of the matter, think
ing that it arose from the persons making
the inquiry, not understanding the difference
between parole and an oath of allegiance.
Judge of my surprise when informed on
Tuesday by Mr.. Zephaniah Washburn, who
had spent several days in the northern part
of the county, that this report was being in
dustriously circulated, and that some Repub-
licans had been made to believe it and were
going to vote against me in consequence.
Finding it to be matter of more impor
lance than had thought it to be, went to
Wilton to inquire into the matter, and found,
as Mr.. Washburn had told me, that the story
was current, and that Mr.. Gordon had him
self told it, in some instances at least-Mr.
Pomeroy, a druggist of Wilton, being one of
the persons who had his information directly
from Mr.. Gordon and from Mr. Gordon's con-
versation had received the impression that he
| (Gordon) had conversed with me concerning
the matter, and that it must be true or would
have denied it in the paper.
| do not believe Mr.. Gordon made the story,
neither do I believe that he has so little brains
as to believe it himself.
have no objections to Mr.. Gordon protest
ing his loyalty and bringing facts to prove it
The peculiar platform on which he is running
and the known character of some of the can
didates running on the ticket with him, may
perhaps render that necessary, but do mos
decidedly object to his circulating report
duplicating my loyalty report that he does
not believe himself and that has originated
in the brain of some ignoramous to my in
ljury. am willing to be beaten by facts, bu
not by differences. JOHN w. JAYNE.

Mr. EDITOR Last week | received from
Cairo colored boy about thirteen years old
Adj't Cornelius Gable, who acted for the per
son who sent at the same time did, sad his
name was "Rafe Pillow, and he looks as
though he might be son of that distinguish,
ed warrior and Democrat, Gen. Gideon NJ.
Pillow. The boy not being what | wanted
and had sent for, and my friend Cornelius
Cadle, ST., the father of the Adjutant, wanting
him, handed RATE over to him, after lodging
him under my roof exactly one night.
At the same time that l was performing
this outrage upon social and Democratic de-
cency, Stephen L. Foss was receiving moth
er and daughter Compton, and Henry,
his son, each woman-Samuel Adams and
John A. Wilson each woman, and Suel Fos-
ter younger brother of Rafe-the whole
making six women and two boys. Now, if
Democratic human nature, on its way to Con-
gress, was not just what it is, one might be
little surprised that out of the above facts
the Courier editor should work himself into
so virulent an attack of negrophobia.
Now, Mr., Editor, l have no apology to make
to Mr. Thayer, or any body else, for my con-
duct in this matter. On the contrary, shall
continue to order my conduct and my house
hold according to my own judgment. If
wish to fill my house with colored servants,
no threats Of Mr.. Thayer, "E. 0. U" 81. P.
c )" or any body else, will in any degree affect
my conduct. Being perfectly satisfied myself
that no man raised slave can ever compete
successfully with any white man not essen
TALLY vagabond, am not at all disturbed at
any influx that may take place. But if this
is mistake, then I say let the black man
have his true position at once. The longest
pole ought always to knock the persimmons,
and if the introduction of blacks is to SUPER
cede the labors of the Thayers and the "E
0. US" as Democratic editors and candidates
for Congress, shall submit resignedly, be-
cause l believe that brains always ought to
beat blood. JACOB BUTLER

Condemn ed

Out of his own mouth. II Thayer pub
licly and privately denounces the Presidents
Proclamation for Emancipation. In speech
at the Court House, he denounced Mr.. Lin
coin a. DISHONEST kNAvE for putting firth
that Proclamation, and appeals to his Demo-
cratic friends to stand firm in their opposition
to that measure,
In the Courier of Sspt. 18th Mr.. Thayer
said" If you are sincere in your efforts to
sustain the President, support NO NAN for
Office who denounces the policy of the Admin
istration in regard to Emancipation and Con-
fiscation A5ous evsrything else, support no
man for office, at the ensuing election, unless
you know he will stand by the Presidents
views upon Emancipation and Confscat on. "
By his own words NJ Thayer is convicted
ofinslncerity and dishonesty toward the Gov.
eminent.
Voters, take Mr.. Thaycr at his word, and
