AFFAIRS AT PIrrsBuRa LASD1HG.-Ths Pitts burg Landing correspondent of the Missouri Re-
 publien, under date of the 18th, says:

 General Halleck has been husily engaged, since

SOLDIERS AID SOCIETY On the eve of one or more great battles, the Sanitary Commission ap- peals again to the public, for contributions of money and materials, to further the object which it is laboring to promote-the comfort of sick and wounded soldiers. The fearful lists of the wounded at Pittsburg Landing and other recent battles, have drawn largely upon the supplies of the Sanitary Commission, and the stock must bc rsplenished without delay, to meet the prob able exigencies of Yorktown and Corinth. Let every one esteem it privilege to bear some part, however humble, in this life struggle of our country.
 Let every woman busy herself in the prepara- ton of lint and bandages if she can do nothing more: No time should be lost, as they are great ly needed. If each family would but contribute . tin cup, fan, hand basin, or towel, much good would be accomplished. The women of Connecticut have already shown a noble zeal in this cause. Let them not be weary in well-doing, nor fold their hands while single soldier re- mains in the field. Our sons, our husbands and our brothers are at this moment in mortal peril
 and while we pray for their success, let us pre- pare to stannch the blood which they are about

TaE SENAToRsHIP.--The contest for the ssna. torship-ifit can be called contest-seems to bs narrowing down to a point, and that point points to Senator DIXON as the coming man. If She friends of the Senator succeed in securing the holding of the caucus by the second week of the session, they will achieve his reelection be. yond . peradventure. Meanwhile the wires have been managed very adroitly, even the ques- tion of the speakership has been made to turn upon this important election, and unless unlock sd-for unanimity develops itself among the mem- bars elect of the Legislature. for Gov. Baldwin or Gov. Buckingham, the reelection of Senator Dixon will be carried by an overwhelming ma- jority. And we shall not be disappointed either way with the result.
 The friends of Gov. Baldwin urge with some fOrce that he is as justly entitled to the position as is the present incumbent, both on the score of ability, previous experience, and customary cour- tssy. Ihefa that it is better to retain men ofexperience iu the Senate at this time operates as favorably for one candidate as the other.- Both gentleman have served one term in the ssnateiWith general acceptance to their constit. usney, both are men of undoubted capability, snd Gey, Baldwin will certainly commend him. self favorably to all stif Republicans as man of backbone. ~E Hs5
 We do not know that Gov. Buckingham is prominent candidate for the position, if he were ws should be glad to have something to say up en his merits; and the fact that Senator Foste, is from the same town, we do not imagine would operate unfavoraby to his claims, since we dc not send Senators to represent our sowns, but our Gate. as5e. a..a..
 But Senator Dixon has decidedly the inside track, and we do not believe his position can be shaken, nor are we certain, upon the whole, tha, h,woule be desirable, if it could. We have nc doubt that he has strong personal regard fo, Senator Dixon, but we believe he will represen, the State of Connecticut for another term. ably iAithtally and satisfactorily to his constituency
