NEAR BRIDGEPORT, Miss, Sept. IS, 1868.
MR.. EDITOR-iSir Il address YOU tor the
purpose of letting you know how soldier
feels towards a copperhead. / am for
using them as they deserve to be used.
They will get no sympathy in the Western
than the traitors we are fighting in the
South. have visited many regiments in
this army. and they denounce the copper
heads to man. They will not gain any
thing by placing Gen. futile at the head of
their list. Although futile was very well
thought of in the army, he has forfeited
the confidence of the soldiers since he ac-
cepted the copperhead nomination for Gov
ernOr. l see in most of the Northern pa
pers that the copperhead party are termed
the Democratic party. think they should
go by their proper term, and not disgrace
the war Democrats by calling them Demo-
Gratis. / think the war would have been
closed at the present time if it had not been
for traitors at home. If few of the old
soldiers were at home they would have to
keep themselves strait and keep their But
ternut breaspins out of sight, or we might
make sad havoc among them. am glad
to say that the health of this army is i'm
proving fast. The rebels have found out
that we can stand more in their climate
than they can themselves. / should have
said something about our raid on the Cen
trail Mississippi Railroad. We captured
eighty locomotives and four hundred pas
senger and freight cars on our route
through. We could buy as much for one
dollar in greenbacks as with ten dollars in
Confederate money. Too high praise
could not be given Col. Winslow for the
way he conducted the expedition. Il
If this is worth placing in our paper, you
have the privilege. No more at this time

A WORKING MANS WARNING TO THE
ENGLISH ARIsToCRACY.-H. G. Moffat, a
working man, thus speaks to the aristo-
cratic sympathizers with the South in Eng
land, through the columns Of the Daily
Neps: a. ..sarr.--
sit may be very fashionable with the
upper ten thousand to sympathize with
the slave breeding aristocrats of the South,
but we of humber birth have deeper ties
that bind US to America, both political and
social. When we see the great number
leaving our shores for that great country,
and as fonr out of six are relations of US
common fellows, what will be our feelings7
What of mine, having sisters and all that
is very dear to me, if we see our men-of-
war bombarding New York City, knowing
morally we have been the cause? If we
are not allowed to vote and make the gov
eminent here, we will not quietly allow
the peoples government to be destroyed
there Working men are seldom heard in
print upon this question; but let not our
gentry suppose there is no.sympathy for
the North here. They will make an awful
mistake if they go to war with America.
1t may be popular with the rich, the snobs
and city swells, but not with the working
men. Let them remember the Lancashire
men starving first sooner than lift up q
finger against true liberty"

From the Sixth Iowa.

CAMP SHERMAN, MISS, Sept. 1885,
Editor HdaOk-Eye: ] wish to say, through
the columns Of your paper, a few words in
reference to the approaching election for
Governor of Iowa. 1t is not the prompt
ings of a scheming politician hatimpresses
me to write, but the honest conviction of a
soldiers duty; one who has worn his cart
ridge box and supported his musket on
long and toilsome marches, and upon the
tented field.
That which wish to say is this, that the
Sixth Iowa, as American citizens, believe
it to be their duty to vote against General
futile in the coming election. Though his
country, and the columns of your paper
filled with eulogies upon his valorous deeds,
we cannot and will not support him. Had
he have been the chosen candidate by the
loyal masses of our beloved State, their
wishes would not have been opposed by
US. But we do not find such to be the case.
Even from his own ''so-called'' letter of ac-
ceptance we find none but the dissatisfied
spirit. And that Southern-sympathiz
Convention that met at Des Moines July
Sth, called him into the field, and from
such only can he expect support. If Gen.
Iuttle expects to blind the eyes OF the SOL
diers by his letter of acceptance, and hide
the fat that his hopes rest upon the success
OF that anti-war party, whose leaders met
ken, for we know with the defeat of that
party his hopes must perish. We do not
wish to abuse Gen. futile, but wish him
and his friends to know that we understand
the modus operandi by which they propose
to make him Governor. We, like General
futile, entered the field from duty, and
that duty we owe to our country will com
pei us to vote for VIM. II. Stone. do not
give this as the feelings or opinion of one
man. but of the whole regiment. I have
heard them express themselves freely on
the subject, and have heard but one man
say he would vote for Tuttle The Des
Moines Convention, in their preamble, tell
US they have right to have their policy
passed upon by the people. Tell them to
wait till the second Tuesday in October,
and that shall be done. But enough of
this - - .
The health of the Regiments improving,
after resting from their toilsome marches
and successful campaign. At present we
are camped on Black River, sixteen miles
from Vicksburg. Our position is the 4th
Division, Commanded by General J. M.
Corse,) 18th Army Corps, commanded by
General Sherman. MOSES.

How English Rulers Hate us.

The attitude assumed by the leading
English Press towards Canada, is sugges-
tive. They hint pretty distinctly that in
case of war between Great Britain and the
United States, the Canadas are not to rely
to much on the MotherC Country for defence,
but are expected to depend upon their own
resources and means to maintain their ter
ritorial integrity. England talks with q
great deal of indifference about the matter.
and gives the Colonies to understand that
she extends her protection not because
they are necessary or advantageous, but
simply out of good will and ancient ASSOC
citation. The object of this sort of talk is
two-fold. They desire to be able to avail
themselves Of tin case Of future necessity.
and to ascertain the real feeling Of the peo-
pie of Canada towards the Crown. If the
Colonies really intend to stand by England
at all hazards they will manifest that pur-
pose by preparing to ward off invasion in
case war should occur. If they do not they
will shrink such from preparations. In
order to induce them to cling to England,
the Times tells them they could not main
tain their independence if they should de-
sire to separate from England, but would
inevitably be swallowed up in the Union,
But how the Times reconciles this idea with
its constant prophecies of the destruction of
Union we do not know. 1t is evident
enough that the English politicians do not
entertain the highest faith in the love ofthe
people on this side of the Atlantic, and are
extremely anxious for some sign of attach
ment and loyalty which may be deemed
unmistakable. The Canadians on the other
hand do not see the advantages of being
made the battlefield to be contested be-
tween two great powers. They are between
two fires and don't know what to do exact
ily. The fact that England is suspicious.
that the Canadians don't prepare with
much alacrity for contingencies, that there is
an: undercurrent discussion of Canadian in
de, 2endence as one of the future possibilities
and the professed Indifference of England,
are worth noting as signs which indicate
what may happen if England at last con.
cludes on war with us-cr committ;no ~
permit ing acts which will produce war
IL is PROBABLE that we are indebted 4, Cav
ada for the lack of English open ac-
knowledge uent of the "Contederacy.u But
whether we are or not, the fact that she de.
clares indifference to the Colonial bond.
one Of the chief supports of English com.
merce, is only one more proof of the in
tensity Of the hate Of English Rulers to
this Republic.
