ANOTHER "BRICK. One Daniel futile,
D. d., edits paper styled the Divinity Ply
stefan, in the State of Ohio. We don't
know whether he is any relation to General
Tuttle, nor what right he has TO "doctor" d.
vinity. But it is plain from what he writes
that he is a most excellent and pious man, &C.
cording to Butternut Interpretation. Here is
a specimen of the kind of talk in which he
INDUCES. He is drawing a parallel between
himself and the editor of the Cleveland
Leader, and says:
"He is under the dropping of the throne,
while l am an Independent freeman. He
seeks the crumbs of pap and power; l receive
my living fresh from the virgin earth. lie
fears the Gods, Jehovah" Lincoln, Lucifer,
Bee'zebub, and their "staff" don't care a
continental, or Bible "God damn" for any
of them, any further than am sensible they
benefit humanity. He edits the Leader, |
publish the Divinity Physician. He accuses
me of blasphemy accuse him Of being
guilty of Christianity and hypocrisy. He is
disunon Abelitionist; am Constitution
al Union Peace Democrat. He, l think, is
religiously, politically and morally diseased,
while l honestly believe myself to be sensi
bic, reasonable, friendly, and honest in what
believe, and believe nothing that am I'M
able to sustain"

How TO KNOW 2 ArRIoTs.-If any one is at
loss to know who are the patriots and who
are the enemies Of the country in these days
of peril, the following Democratic and charac-
teristic d ,Acription of patriot will enable
him to decide. 1t is from speech Of Steph-
en- A. Douglas made in May, 1916. 1t was
sound doctrine then. 1t is sound, practical
and wise still. 1t was made long before the
rebellion broke out, by man whom North
ern Democrats delighted to honor. How is
it, that so many Of those who call themselves
Democrats are now found acting as HE says
patriots cannot act? If he was right ought
they not re-examine the position they occu-
py?
patriotism emanates from the heart, fills
the soul, infuses itself into the whole man
and speaks and acts the same language. A
friend of his country in war will feel, speak
and act for his country; revere his country's
cause and hate his countrv's enemies. Amer
lea wants no friends, acknowledges the fidelity
Of no citizen, who, after war is declared, con-
demns the justice of her cause and sympa-
thizes with the enemy. All such are traitors
in their hearts. STEPHEN A. DOUGLAS"

81 DECLARE FOR PEACE, and as prepare
tory to peace | AM IN FAVOR OF A CESSATION
OF HoSTILITIEs. The WAR SHOULD CEASE BE-
CAUSE 1T SHOULD NEVER HAVE COMMENCED, IN
AsMUCH AS THERE is NO CoERClvE MILITARY
POWER IN THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT AGAINST
THE STATES; because there was no necessity
for it because it has been made war for
the abolition of slavery; because it is made
pretext for the most outrageous and dam
nable crimes because it is creating stupen-
dous public debt; BECAUSE NEITHER IN THE
MILITARY NOR IN THE CIVIL DEPARTMENTS OF
THE GOVERNMENT Is THERE ANY NAN CIR MEN OF
SUFFICIENT MENTAL POWER TO SUCCESSFULLY
PROSECUTE THE WAR AGAINST THE SUPERIOR
STATESMEN AND GENERALS OF THE
SOUTH because the commercial wealth of
the country is being destroyed, and lastly,
BECAUSE THE EVERYTHING POWER OF GoD IS
AGAINST U.s."
The author of the foregoing is no less a
parsonage than the Five Points Congressman,
Fernando Wood, whom the Democratic party
has imported into Iowa to defeat the Union
ticket headed by Col. Stone, and secure the
election of the Copperhead ticket headed by
Gen. Tuttle Those Democrats who in the
Spring of 1861 said, in this city, that they
were opposed to coercion, will of course be
very anxious to hear this Prophet Fernandy.
Those who thought wi Buchanan, including
Gen. Humphreys, Chairman of the late Coun-
ty Convention, and Major Sherfey, Democrat
ic candidate for Senator, that ''there is no
coercive military power in the Federal Gov
ernment," will desire to hear Fernando.
Those Democrats who think this war is
being waged for the sole purpose of abolish
ing slavery, will 60 somewhere to hear New
Yorks great villain, Phernandy Wud. All
those Democrats, and good many there are
in Muscatine, who think "that we have
neither statesmen nor generals of sufficient
mental power to prosecute this war against
the vastly superior statesmen and generals OF
the South" will hurrah for Fernando Wood,
and vote for Gen. futile. By the way, aside
from Lee, what great General has the South ?
Did not our Curtis, Heron and Sigel prove
their superiority at Pea Ridge? Has not
Blunt outgeneraled the rebs in Arkansas
Did not Grant exhibit some ''mental powers
superior to the great warriors, Johnston and
Pemberton? Did Butler exhibit any men,
tai power" in his capture Of New Orleans
Who opposed Gillmore's approaches to Fort
Pulaski? Who was out-generaled at Camp
Jackson, at Fort Donelson, at Port Royal
at Newbern, at Stone River, and hundred
other fields where brains and muscle gave
us the victory? Who has thus far out-gen
eraled Beauregard at Charleston Who is
preparing to throw his legions from thu
mountains of Tennessee upon the rebel horde'
under Bragg? But who is this foul mouthee
miscreant that has no laudations for anybody
except rebel Generals and statesmen Car
it be that he has been brought into Iowa t.
instruct and edify Union Democrats Fer
nando Wood in Iowa to help Gen. futile!

DISASTER ON TIE MICHIGAN CENTRAL-FIvE
PERSONS KILLED AND TWENTY-FIVE WOUNDED.
An appalling disaster occurred to special
passenger train coming west, from the Mich-
gan State Fair at Kalamazoo, on the Michigan
Central Railroad, last Friday night. A
coupling pin was removed and the bell-rope
cut by some drunken wretches on board the
train, separating the hind cars from the rest.
1t being dark, and the engineer not discover
ing the state of things, the train stopped at
the first station, and the disconnected cars
came dashing down into the standing train
causing a horrible calamity. Five persons
were killed and twenty-five injured. Some Of
the injured are so mangled in body or limb
that it will be impossible for them to survive.
The killed and injured were mostly from
Decatur and Paw Paw, in Van Buren, county,
Michigan.

DA Him Honor.

No loyal citizen will hesitate to express his
opinion that under the administration Of Maj.
Gen. Curtis, Missouri was being disen-
thralled and redeemed from the Tyranny and
terrorism of rebellion, and her soil rapidly
became free. Whatever may have been the
cause of his removal from that department.,
Gen. Curtis has more friends among the I'M
daunted Unionists of that State than at the
date of his removal. The correctness Of his
policy is being demonstrated with every sue
ceeding day. Let the people of Iowa and
Illinois, who pray that Missouri may yet be
free, and who believe that Gen. Curtis was
quietly, peacefully and legally aiding eman-
cipation there, come and welcome the hero
on the 10th of October. Let us give him
such reception as his services in behalf Of
Union and Liberty richly deserve.

Opposition to the administrator

Opposition to the Administrations.
That there may be such thing as loyal
and pa r;otic opposition to the Administration
in time OF war we do not doubt. But it is
equally evident that the present opposition
party, from which the rebels draw so much
encouragement and consolation, is neither
loyal nor patriotic. Mr.. Ev.rett, in his let
ter to the Illinois Convention, drew the lines
correctly between the two positions when he
said:
"In time Of war every blow struck at the
measures of the Government, though designed
only to effect change Of Administration,
really affords aid and comfort to the nemy."
Gov. Bramlette. of Kentucky, further illus
trates the same idea in his lnaugura! when he
said:
"Beause we furnish the means, we do not
commit ourselves in favor of the modes of
applying them. 1t is our duty to supply the
means; the duty of others to apply them.-
Those charged with the application are re-
sponsible for any misdrection or abuse OF the
means. We will not saction acts violative
of constitutional right, but we will not there
fore neglect the use Of every necessary means
to protect and defend the Constitution against
rebel efforts to destroy it, merely because
somebody does not understand or regard its
provisions IS we do"
That disloyal opposition does afford aid
and comfort to the enemy, they themselves
confess. The traitor Maury in his recent let
ter to the London Times, pointing out the
means still relied upon by the rebels for sue
cess makes this important statement:
"Other agents have to be called into play.
What are they Let us inquire. They are
divisions liz the camp of the enemy-dissen-
sions among the pt ople of the North There
is already a peace party there. All the EN-
barrassments with which that party can sur,
round Mr. Lincoln, and ALL THE DIFFICULTIES
THAT IT CAN THROW IN THE WAY OF THE WAR
PARTY OF THE NORTH, OPERATES AS 80 MUCH
AID AND COMFORT TO THE SOUTH"
Had there Teen no Copperhead party in the
North, that is to say, had the North kept its
unbroken front. the rebellion would have
been Frustrated long since. Had the rebel
lion, on the Otner nanu, not eaiueu us W'aIa
ry successes, the Copperhead party would
have never had its existence. Each lived
ard thrived in the success Of the other.
Reader, are you found with those upon
whom the rebels build their hopes Of over
throwing the government, or do you give
your sympathies and support to the admins
tration in its efforts to put 'wn the rebel
lion9

To-day has sen one OF the most eventful
and glorious outpourings Of genuine Union
ism we have ever witnessed, and prouder
day, revealing the integrity and wisdom Of
old Louisa, may not be on record. As non
residents, and thus impartial spectators, we
frankly say that Louisa county has to-day
aided new laurels to her loyal fame-has
again pledged herself to sustain, defend, and
carry out at home the result of the splendid
achievements her patriotic sons have won in
the field, and to stand shoulder to shoulder
in giving the d, a,h knell to treacherous
home foe, lurking in ambush under that
time -honored name, Democracy. The intel
ligent sons of Louisa do no longer yield to q
wicked gang of conspirators, such as Bying-
ton & Co.
The township delegations were very large,
bearing many ingenious devices OF banners,
&c.
DR.. Bell, "a former Democrat, and who,
says our informant, has furnished the BRAIN
for the Democracy in this county in times
past,) President of the day, opened the meet
ing by an elaborate argument, giving the rea-
sons why he left and renounced the policy OF
his late political associates.
Next, Gen. Baker spoke. The General
showed by reference to history, that true
Democracy had always supported war meas
ures when the safety and integrity OF the
country required it--,hat he still adhered to
the war measures passed in '6l by aid of the
Democrats, but that great many of the lat
ter gentlemen had left that pledge and indi-
rectly aided the rebels A man could only
be properly judged by his acts-not by mere
profession.
Next the gallant Co.. Stone arose. The
Colonel regretted the apparent inactivity of
tine Administration in the first nine months
Of the war, but welcomed the rapid change
Government had been making in carrying on
the war on a wa like basis. He believed in
hurting the rebels in the most vital parts,
where the result would prove most benetic-
ial to us.
Hon. j. F. Wilson, Member of Congress,
then arose and spoke at length, dealing terri
bic blows to the rebels aud their Northern
sympathizers
In the evening Major O'Connor, of your
city, spoke to large concourse of people in
the Court House. The Major seemed to be
at home with his subject His mastery
style in comparing notes with the rebels was
at once interesting and instructive.
On the whole it proved a disastrous day for
the rybels and their CO workers in The fair
State of Iowa. The unity and spirit which
prevailed throughout, give unmistakable evi
dence of the earnestncss and determination oil
the assembled thousands, while considering
some of the graye,t and most Important Of
pol ii al issues.
So far as we can learn, you may look for a
large delegation from This county at the com.
ing Union Mass Meeting at your city.

will address the Mass Meeting, on the 10th.
Two KINDS OF DEMocRATs-The following
is an extract from a speech of Ex-Governor
Wright, of Indiana. 1t clearly shows the
difference between true Democrats and cop.
perheads:
The assertion has been made that none but
the Democratic party could save the country.
But what class of Democrats do you mean
are to save the country? Thomas Jefferson
was genuine Democrat. [Applause.] He
had a Vice President Of the name of Aaron
Burr. Mr. Burr was inside of the Democrat
ic organization. Laughter. Were they not
both Democrats Coming from Jefferson to
jackson, we find that Andrew Jackson had a
Vice President by the name of John G. Cal
houn. Was not Calhoun inside OF the DEM
ocratic organization as much as Gen. jackson
himself? Coming from Jackson we find
Stephen A. Douglas, and was he not repre-
sentative of the old jefferson Jackson De-
mocracy? At the time the country had a
Vice President in the person of John c.
Breckenridge, who was D mocrat too
Then we have Jefferson and Burr, Jackson
and Calhoun, and Douglas and Breckenridge,
all inside of the Democratic ring. Laugh
ter. Do you follow Jeff rson, jackson and
Douglas, or Burr, Cali oun and Breckenridge?
Do YOU follow these last? cries of mo,
nn."] When you hear man saying that the
only party that can save the country IS the
Democratic party, be sure and ascertain what
he means by the Democracy, whether it is
genuine or gus. There can be no such
thing as a true Democrat who does not stand
up for the war. loud applause.

Election hay, Tuesday, Oct. 18th.
Let no Union man in this county for mo-
ment forget it. Talk with your neighbor of
it, and of the great and vital importance of
every lover of the Government and its free
institutions voting the Union t;cket-State,
county and township aom nations. See to it
that every Union candidate is elected. You
Can do it if you will. If all do not work, and
work increasingly, defeat may come. Let
there be no stragglers in our ranks from this
day forward. Every man has work to do ;
let him do that work, and the traitor sympa.
thizers in Muscatine county will be totally
routed on the 18th of October.

But few weeks since public notice was
given Of the demise of very praiseworthy
organization in this city called the Ladies'
Benevolent Society" That it contributed
much to the relief of the poor in this commu-
nifty we have always believed, but Of this we
shall not speak. Among the members Of this
Society was the wife of an active working
Democrat, whose name occupies prominent
Place among the getters-up of the barbecues
just now in vogue in this county. Among
the applicants for relief from this society was
the wife Of German soldier, left with three
small children dependent upon the labor of
her hands. Her supplcation was heard, and
the Society sent her SO pounds -four, gallon
molasses, and some other Of the necessaries
of life, for which she was grateful. Very
soon after, the above mentioned lady member
of the Society called the soldiers wife in to
'c,ean house, Having searched for many
weeks in vain for work, the German woman
was again made glad at the promise of work
and the hope of wages. Three days she
spent in cleaning house for the Democratic
lady, and having cosed her labors, waited for
that that should minister to the wants of her
self and children. Imagine her surprise
when the generous hearted wife of leading
Barbecue Democrat informed her that ''she
might let it go toward what she had received
from the Society" In her simplicity, the
soldiers wife gave the Society credit for three
days hard labor for a patriotic % Democrat.
We have no comments to make, except that
t he woman referred to is good washer and
ironer and is anxious to work. Her three
days house cleaning has not disheartened
