The KIND OF Mon Coming.

Fernando Wood is advertised to speak
in this State this week. This Prince of
Copperheads is coming here in the inter-
ests of the Mahony and Byington fac
tion-the peace men of Iowa-the
party who boldly confess that they have
no interest in the fight between Iowa
soldiers and the southern rebels for the
restoration of The Union, except TO see the
former slaughtered and everpowered.-
Such result they think would aid their
party in the coming election. They are
leaders of faction calling itself "Democ-
racy," which cannot withstand the sue
cess of Union armies, and breads to hear
that the Old Flag has been borne in tri-
umpt througha conflict with armed trai.
tors combined for the destruction of the
Government which that flag represents.
On the sontnry, their Democracy re-
quires that the Stars and Stripes shall be
traled in the dust before a victorious fee,
or 5disgractfully surrendered TO bis
hands. They have no laurels for the
brows of brave Iowa soldiers, but rather
Tor those of rebel troops. The prefer the
funeral dirge rather than the song Of tri-
uinph for the brave volunteers WHO have
gone forth to fight our battles.
Fernando comes here ss an aly in the
intofes, and action Of Davis, Lee, Bragg
and their followers, and upon their sue
cess in dupiog the voters of the North
they confess their success in the rebellion
chiefly rests. There is no man in tie
vide world who is as much interested 10
the election of the democratic ticket
throughout the NertI as Jei. Davis. He
is lighting with hsliei around his neck.
and the Democratic speakers of the North
are tFa' ersing the country trying TO in
duce the PEOPLE to compel the Govern
ment to let this ereat criminal 60 uu-
punished.
