RAILROAD ACCIDENT. train from the
East Tuesday noon, when about three
miles from this city run into lot of cows
that were standing on the track, killing five
of the cows and injuring several others and
throwing the train from the track. The
place where the accident happened was an
embankment of about ten feet, down which
the engine plunged, into small creek, nearly
burying itself in the mud. The first car fol-
lowed the engine down the embankm ent, the
second and third stood square across the
track, the fourth rolled bottom side up on the
other side of the bank, the fifth going of on
the same side, and the sixth standing across
the track.
The baggage, passenger and two freight
cars remained on the track. The cars that
ran off, together with the engine, are badly
smashed up. The track is also torn up for
some distance. Fortunately no one was Sc
riously injured, the engineer and fireman sus-
tanning slight damages. The passengers
were brought to the city by train sent out
for the purpose. A force of hands were i'm
mediately taken out to repair the road and
clear away the wreck.

WHAT THE SoLptBRs THINK OF GEN. HOOKER.
We are permitted to make the following ex-
tract from private letter received from SOL
der in the Army Of the Potomac; one who
left pleasant home and lucrative employ
ment to battle for his country. He says:
"The army all like Hooker, as far as can
learn, and can say for myself that l have
implicit faith in him, and shall have as long as
he rules as loyalty and firmly as he now does.
We feel that we have at our head man who
is terribly in earnest who recognizes and re-
wards merit wherever found; who will
promptly punish treason and imbecility,
which has been too long q drawback to our
success. His active mind comprehends all
that is lacking to secure perfect discipline and
unanimity of purpose, and the want OF them
is especially noted, and all disloyal and incom-
petent officers are ANONYMOUSLY dismissed.
The laxity of discipline and accountability
which worked so much mischief under Nc
Clellan's rule is entirely done away with
Eyervman must be accounted for, and If pri-
Yates are absent without leave they are mark
ed as deserters, and If officers, contaminated,
and generally dismissed. So you see even
though our numbers be smaller we are o bet
ter army, all acting as unit in the hands Of
an energetic and loyal leader"
In speaking of Northern traitors the writer
says:
"There is no word in the English language
sufficiently strong to express my contempt OF
a Copperhcad. regard him my enemy as
much as an armed rebel in the field who is
manly enough to fight for his pet institu-
ton"

A CLUE TO THE CoPpERHEAD SUCCESS IN
THIS CIrY.-Early last summer it was known
that Muscatine county had furnished more
men for the war than any other county in the
State. At the time that preparations were
being made for draft in this State, the cow
ards, comprising for the most part, the anti-war,
peace sneak party, fearful that their precious
bodies might become food for rebel powder "a
waste of powder and lead, by the way) were
in great CONSERVATION. How to get out Of
the draft occupied their thoughts by day
and their dreams by night. Some left early
for Canada and other places "outside the
draft" but that game being blocked by the
timely order from the proper authorities re-
quiringa pass to travel, other places must be
sought, and means to enable them to escape
the horrible fate of becoming soldier and
fighting for the maintenance of the institu-
tons by which they are protected. Musca-
tine then became their "city of refuge" and
its population received large accession, of a
class however, the majority of whom were
undesirable as citizens. Here they were at
last safe. They could breathe easy and their
sleep was undisturbed by horrible visions of
transcription.
The conviction forces itself upon the mind
of every intelligent man that the astonishing
increase of copperheads in this city, as shown
by the triumph of the Funk ticket, is owing
to the fact that Muscatine county furnished
sos more than her quota under the last call
for troops, and is now regarded by those who
fear draft, as the safest locality in the State
in which to reside.

Mons CONTRIBUTIONS - The citizens OF
Brighton, Washington county, always alive to
the wants of the soldiers, have been exerting
themselves in response to the appeal lately
ISSUED for sanitary stores, the result of which
exertion was "a boxes and barrels Of stores.
The stores have already arrived here, con-
signed to the care of Col. Compton, accom-
panied by letter from Henry Boardman,
Esq, stating that "the citizens of Brighton
could always be depended on when our brave
soldiers are to be benefited" Brighton is
one Of the most patriotic towns in the patri-
otto county of Washington, and is an honor
to the State. As generosity is always coupled
with patriotism, we are not surprised at the
liberal donation.

The COUNTY REsPoND1NG.-One night last
week the citizens of Wilton had supper and
dance, the proceeds to be for the benefit Of
the sick soldiers. The supper was gotten up
by Dan Harker, at the Wilton House, and is
said to have been an excellent affair. The
proceeds netted over $500 in cash, which will
be forwarded to the proper committees.
At a grand Union Mass Meeting held at
Atalissa last Saturday, an appeal was made
for sanitary goods. 1t was nobly responded
to, as the following inventory will prove: 30
bushels of potatoes, 8 barrels of molasses, 100
doz. eggs, bbls. onions, besides an innu-
merable quantity of sour krout, butter and
delicacies. All honor to the patriotic citizens
of the towns above named. They have sent
their husbands, sons and brothers to fight in
good cause, and will always stand ready to
encourage and cheer them on in the glorious
work.
