That MEET1NG.-From several portions Of
our county we learn that the Union loving
citizens are preparing to turn out on nsasse,
on Saturday next, and pledge their unfalter-
ing support to the Government. We trust
that every loyal man in the county will de-
vote that day to the service of his country /;
for believe US, you can render good service
BY IN imposing, enthusiastic demonstration,
which, while it pledges to the Administration
our fealty and devotion, carries terror and
dismay to the hearts Of the disloyal. Wash
ington, Aahaska, Wapello, Linn and Old
Cedar have spoken, let us respond.
Every arrangement conducive to your COM
fort will be made. Let Democrats come with
Republicans, forgetting party names and ties,
and speak out for the Union. Speaking will
commence atnoon, At as many stands As there
may be crowded audiences. It is hoped that
arrangements will be effected for running q
special train through the western tier of town
ships, for the accommodation of their loyal
populations.
Come up brethren, and show the copper
heads that there Is something besides Celts
in this county. Let the Saxon and the leu
ton lovers Of liberty and haters Of oppression
come IN. Come one and 81.

FROM VIcKsBuRG. DR.. Hershe returned
Monday from trip of about twenty days
to our army before Vicksburg. He reports
the health Of the army very bad - ship fever
and diarrhea being the prevailing diseases.
Out of a force of 10000 at Vicksburg, 49,
600 are sick. and 80 to 40 are dying daily.
The country is destitute of forage, and our
men are compelled to live on salt provisions.
They are greatly in need of potatoes, onions,
cabbage, canned fruits and other anti-scor-
butte food. Cannot supply be sent to them
at once?
McArthur's division comprising the 18th
and 18th Iowa. has gone to Lake Providence,
about rs miles above vicksburg, where a
canal is to be cut to open communication
with the river below Vicksburg. Another
force is opening like communication by way
Of Yazoo Pass, opposite Helena. Thus
vicksburg is to be cut off from communica-
ton on both sides.
DR.. Hershe reports great deal of suffering
from want of attention in the post hospitals.
He thinks the sick should be kept in the reg
mental hospitals, among their comrades. The
post hospital is terror to every soldier.
The feeling in the army is al right. The
soldiers are ready and eager to do anything
to put stop to the war by overthrowing the
rebellion. The privates, as general thing
are more cordial in their support Of thu
Administration than the officers.

fact, that at J. A. Bishops grocery store you
can get better article of goods for the same
money, than you can any place else in the
city, but he also delivers in any part Of the
city -four and heavy goods without charge
for drayage. He purchased large stock of
goods previous to the recent advance, and is
selling them very low to suit the times. We

Feb. 9Th, we learn that "the weather is grow

the health of the troops stationed there is
in consequence improving fast. Snew had
