The great Union League State Conven.

day, to FIX up things preparat ry to the
action Of the abolition State convention on

report themselves to Marshal Hoxie, Who

open his office on that account to-day.-
Probably less than dozen delegates were
in attendance, and those We mainly from
here and the immediate vicinity un.
derstand that those who met adjourned
the convention until tha 10Th inst, the
day before the meeting Of the regular
abolition State convention, when they
expect to be able TO drum up respect

of the people of the North in regard to
the arrest Of MIR. Vallandigham and the
attempted suppression OF the Chicag'
Times, are evidently having their ef
feet
The Supreme Court is getting along
with its business slowly but smoothly
No decisions Of very general impor ance
have yet been announced. Judge Jones
has not yet arrived.
In view Of recent depredations com
lifted on the property Of citizens here
and the &, neral state Of alarm which cx
lists, Mayor Leas has appointed a spec'a
night police for the city, as precaution

The Des Moines special Of the Chicago
Times telegraphs to that paper the fol
loving bit Of interesting information
Des Moines was in a great state Of
eommotion lat night. The city was
victimized through the Union lesguers,
and made the subject Of most terrible
scare, as we'll as ridicule. Soon after
dark last night, it was reported that th'r-
ty or forty armed guerrillas, supposed to
be from Missouri, had been seen in the
woods across Coon river, short distance
from this place. Word was circulated,
and Immediately men with arms began
to gather in squads. About midnight the
Mayor convened the Common Council in
special session, aud night pat, OILS were ap-
pointed. A company of mounted men
were sent in the direction 0, the reported
rendezvous OF the guerrillas, while a
special citizens police did duty as guards
in and around the city. Our streets were
resonant with military and police orders
and operations until dawn this morning,
when apprehension ceased to exist. |
have no doubt that armed men were seen
in the locality indicated but the evi-
dence rs that they were members OF the
Union League, who have recently receiv.
ed their arms and met there for drill
This is the unshaken conviction of those
who have the best means for knowing,
outside of the Union Lcaguers themselves
The idea that band Of guerrillas from
Missouri is inirsti"g this ne,ghborhood is
regarded as ridiculous The affair, how
ever, has afforded the Union Leagucrs an
opportunity to ask for more arm, which
the May or, ! understand. in,ima'ed, had
the purpose last night to give. This may
have been part Of the programme. The
excitement here last night was most in
tense.
The State Convention of Union
Leagues meets here to-morI ow, to pre-
pare work, suppose, for the Republican
State Convention next week. But few
delegates have yet arrived. The fight
between F,,z Henry Warren AID Elijah
Sells for the nomin At on for Governor in
the republican convention grows Inter
esting. Senator Grimes tor Sells, and
Gov kirkw ood for Warren, with their
friends, take sides in the contest, they,
Grimes and Kiikwood, being rival c4ndi
dates for U. s. Senator. Sells is here,
with a far delegation of friends, and. |
think, so far has the inside track. His
friends at least are confident. Leaving
the question of honesty out Of question,
he has much less sbili y than Fllz Henry
Warren and kirkwood, having control OF
the secret corruption fund, may yet be
able TO throw the nomination to Warren.
Although the best OF the two, do not
think he is the strongest man with his
party.
