The Glorious News.

We are unable to give expression to the
great joy we feel atthe announcementoft the
GREAT VICTORY achieved by General Grant
over the rebel armies under Pemberton
and Johnston, resulting in the capture OF
vicksburg and all its Notifications, in the
taking of an immense number of cannon
and other munitions of war, and in the
destruction of the Rebel Power on the Mis-
sissippi. It is the heaviest blow which the
rebels have yet received, and will fill the
breasts of loyal people with joy and hope.
1t cuts the Confederacy in two, opens the
Mississippi river and restores Louisiana,
Mississippi and Tennessee to the Union.
All honor to General Grant and the Off
GERS who command the Army of the Mis-
sissippi. All honor to the brave Western
boys whose indomitable courage has given
us this glorious victory-honor to the liv-
ing, and may the memory of. the dead re-

W,sd,sesday. May -.


We call attention to the account of the
Butternut mob which assembled in Indian
apolis on the Doth inst, as given by the
correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette
The conduct of that assemblage, the speech
.es made and the resolutions adopted, are
sure index of the reasonable purposes OF
the miserable villains who are seeking to
lead the people into conduct which can on
ly result in their own rain, or their coun-
try,s absolute and eternal shame and dis
honor. That great number of the men
who were there, processing to represent the
Democracy, were villainous traitors in in
tent. was sufficiently evidenced by theil
conduct. Why, if they were honest men,
do they attend Conventions bearing arms
Why, if they are patriots, do they fire pis.
tolls into the hospitals and camps of woun.
ded soldiers of the Union? Why, if they
intend to obey the laws Of the land, do they
discharge firearms into the windows OF
Quiet and unoffending citizens? Do not
their acts prove conclusively the reckless
desperation, as well as the conscious turpi
tude, of these scoundrels? Is there any
apology for such conduct? Does it not
demonstrate that the leaders who are thus
encouraging it, have already been permit
ted to play the part ofpolitical incendiarie'
much too long?

IT SHIP CANAL CONFERENCE.-The Con-
vention meets at Chicago on the second day
of June. All who choose to attend, whether
expressly delegated or not, are understood
to be invited. All the Railroads leading to
that point, including, of course, the Chica-
go, Burlington and Quincy, have agreed
to convey those who attend the Convention
and who have paid full fair to that place,
on their return without any.charge, on fur
nishing evidence to the Permanent Secreta-
s-y of these facts. The return ticket will
be held good until July first. Persons at
tending will be required, also, to register
their names and residences Immediately
on their arrival. The circular of the Rail
road Committee, from which we gather
this information, designates J. w. FOSTER,
as Permanent Secretary, and we presume
it is with him that names and residence are
to be registered.

R-The rebel pretense for a Congress, ad-
journed on the LIST instant. The resolutions
offered by Foote, rendering ''peace" to the
North West, on terms which the fine fell
low appears to f1atter himself must be ac-
ceptable to the patriotic Copperheads ofthis
section, did not pass. bill providing for
the election of members of Congress by
general ticket also failed. The tax bill was
adopted, and the impressment bill, author
izing the seizure of produce and material
for the use of the rebel army, was enacted.
An attempt was made to make it a penal
offense to buy, sell or circulate United
State bonds and Treasury notes, but the
proposition was defeated in the Senate
We presume the shrewder members Of that
: body began to see the handwriting on the
wall. They understand that twill not be
long before they will need Treasury notes
to aid them in escaping the penalty of trea-
son. So they left the gate open. The
Confederate Congress we think is about
played out. We shall be disagreeably dis
appointed if it ever meets again.

There are twenty-five regiments of
infantry and one of cavalry, from the State
of Indiana, now under Gen. Grant, at
Vicksburg. We do not know how many
Iowa regiments are there, but we suppose
as large, if not larger number. Indeed
there can scarcely be person in our State
who has not either near relatives or init
mate friends among the gallant patriots
who have just signalized their valor at and
about that point. Alas! for how many Of
them shall we be called to mourn!

gs- 1t is reported that an order has been
made by the Surgeon General for the es-

for this selection is stated to be the fact that

altogether by river, thus avoiding frequent
changes.

z The 21sT AND ODD IowA.-In reading the
account of the battle at Black river bridge,
in another column, our readers will not
fail to notice that the writer gives the 21st
and 23d Iowa regiments the credit of lead
ing in the desperate charge which at once
gave to Grant the victory and all its fruits.
Two more regiments have earned fame for
themselves and their State. The number
who laid down their lives attest the nature
of the contest-the devoted heroism of our
soldiers, and the stern resolution existing
among all our volunteers to maintain the
high position they have acquired among
the soldiers of the Union. We do not
doubt that any other of our regiments
would have acquitted themselves with
equal honor. All they want is the oppor-
tunity. AS one after another has occasion,
| it is singular how uniformly and trium-
phantly they bear away the laurels.

The Situation in Kentucky.

LEXINGTON, May a, 1881 have Just
returned from an extended tour to several
outposts on the Cumberland. The reports
of large rebel forces in East Tennessee have
been much exaggerated, and mostly deriv-
ed from rebel sources. Their principal
numbers are collected in Wayne county,
KY, under Morgan and Wheeler. The
report Of reinforcement to Buckner from
Virginia is not reliable. Capt Fuller with
u detachment of the 44th Ohio, who cross
ed Cumberland Ford on u reconnaissance to
the Gap, has returned. He advanced to
the Gap, and captured all their pickets and
inaugurated panic among the rebels, who
fled in confusion. Not having sufficient
force to venture taking the Qualifications,
he fell back, whereupon the rebels pur-
sued and attacked him: facing about he
again routed them, and safely recrossed
the river. 1t was brilliant and successful
dash.

@Y~ By our latest dispatches it will be
seen that the announcement of the capture

to be no drawback upon the series OF
brilliant victories achieved by our army
except in the matter of carrying the fortifi-
cations. Haines' Bluff and the fortifica-
tons on the Yazoo have been carried
Pemberton has been terribly whipped and
has fallen back within his entertainments
at vicksburg, losing his artillery and q
great many men. The fall of the place is

~ It may not be arniss for us to bear
in mind the fact that it was at vicksburg,
on the 18th day of January, 1851, while
Buchanan was yet President and DEM
ocratic Administration was yet in power,
that the first attempt was made to in
terrupt the navigation of the Mississippi
by the rebels. On the 9th of January,
Mississippi formally seeded. Four days
subsequently, on the 18th, mob OF crazy
brutes, styling themselves the Quitman
Battery, planted their field pieces on the
bluffs above Vicksburg, and brought 10
the steamer A. o. Tyler, which identical
vessel has since been transformed into
gunboat, and in that character has since
done important service against the rebels.
The imbecile or traitor who was then
President did nothing and attempted
nothing to punish this obstruction 10 the
use of our national highway. If he was
not party to it, he became such by neg
lecting to punish it. This was four months
before the fall of Sumter, and nearly two
before Lincoln became President. Yet
there are still fools in the world who say
Lincoln caused the war, and that the war is
itself an abolition crusade. May God en-
dow the idiots with some modicum OF
brains

m-The people of indianapolis were re-

successes, and, at once fired one hundred
cannons in their honor. 1t is reported that
even the Copperheads went round the
streets rubbing their hands with counter
feited glee," and talking of the great vic
tory aye had won! They achieved their tri-
umphs, we suppose, by advising none to
enlist in the army, and those already there
to desert! That is their mode of gaining
victories and "conquering a peace!' 1t is
likely to prove successful one, isn't it?

however, some honorable references to in

wounded, already published. This order

The Fall Of interchangeable effect
KS - i'm Burlington.

The announcement of Grants splendid
victories, crowned by the fall of Vicksburg
and the destruction of the Rebel army pro-
duced the most intense excitement and en-
thusiasm yesterday. The flagswereb brought
out, the bells rung, the cannon fired, the
brass and military bands brought into re-
QUESTION, and the whole population, includ-
ing the juveniles, for the schools were dis
missed, came out to give vent to their feel
ings in the way best suited to their several
tastes. There were professions, speeches,
songs, &C., &c.
At two o'clock large impromtu process
sion formed on third street headed by the
Brass Band, and marched through the
principal streets. Late in the afternoon
it returned to the vicinity of the Hawk-Eye
office where number ofgenltemen made
short and appropriate speeches, including
Mr.. Starr, Prof. Allen, Mr.. w. F. Johnson,
Mr.. Lowry and Judge Rorer.
Of what was done last night we can
give no account, except to say that there
were bon-fres, fire-crackers and salvos
of artillery, martial music and confusion
enough for Fourth of July and two or
three cattle shows thrown in. We are glad
to say that we have heard Of no fight OF
accident.
