We transfer to our columns portion of it
CEDAR FALLS, May 8, 1868.
Mr.. EDIroR THE Herald of Tuesday last
honored the citizens of Cedar Falls, and par.
ticularly myself, with column and half OF
abuse, and far be It from me to desire the
good opinion Of the Herald aud Of those who
support it in its vileness and treason. Praise
from such a source is censure, and ssr con.
ira censure Is praise. 1t is a paper which is
looked upon by all loyal people with detcsta-
ton and abhorrence--a paper supported BY
traitors and their dupcs, and only scanned BY
loyal men that they may prepare themselves
against copperhead treason-and whose ad-
veftisements are 4 black list, under no cir
cumstances to be patronizcd by consistent
loyalty in these times of our country's peril.
One Of its editors has been released from
prison against the sentiments Of the entire
loyal community and the fact that they are
at large, and permitted to disseminate their
treason, is evidence Of mistaken lcnity,
amounting to weakness, on the part Of the
Federal Executive.
The occurrences which served as texts for
the article alluded to, were personal chas.
tisernent administered to Hutchins, and
moro recent Punishment of Hodnett from
this place BY its citizens. The circumstan.
ces Connected with the Hutchins affair were
published at the time, and every honorable
man here or elsewhere, knowing the circum-
stances, would give me full Justification.
Here comes in the particulars of the Hod-
nett affair, which being in substance the
same as published in our columns week be.

our county has furnished about two hundred
and fifty men, more than our quota for the
putting down Of the rebellion. But we do
think that it is our duty, while our SONS,

cy from this time forward, and they can gov.
ern themselves accordingly.
Hutchins' pretense that he pursuaded his
friends not to modest me when in Dubuque
the other day, is absurd. and believed by
none who has any knowledge of him. The

I.ExINt TON, KY, August s.-Scott's gang OF
rebel raiders has been finally broken up by
Woliord, with the loss of five pieces of artil-
Try, horses, &c, &c, and the scattered mem
t2rs of the force are endeavoring to escape sin-
ely.
The news from East Tennessee is that the
Confederate authorities, driven to desperation
by their waning fortunes, are practising I'M
h. ard of cruelties upon the people TO the end
of forcing them into the rebel ranks Jeff Davis
has made req nisiion on the rebel .s(iovernor''
Harris for 5000 men of the class between the
ages CT forty-dve and fifty.fye. Any demur
10 the CONSUMPTION is seized as an excuse by the
rebel soldiery to seize property, hang, kill and
vent the most Internal passions with impunity.
The Rebel Government has assumed the
ownership Of the abundant wheat crop in East
Tennessee, and is collecting and moving it AS
rapidly possible.
1t IL expected they will do the same with
the corn crop.
News of Rebel forces vary but little from
previous dispatches. Governor Robin son has
received information, however of Bragg's en-
try into East Tennessee, iO,UO0 strong.
Time will no doubt develop new campaisn
on the part OF rebeldom whose base will no in
Tennessee.

FROM LEES ARMY.

Accounts from Lees army represent it in
very demoralized condition. The North
Ceroiina, Mississippi and Tennessee troops
are said to be very much dissatisfied, and
aimostin state of open mutiny. Troops from
he Southwestern States generally share this
feeling; and since the fall Of Eicksburg and
Port Hudson they consider their c.luse hope
tess, and are clam orous TO 60 home and give
up the contest. as they consider it OF no use to
continue TING war any longer. The greatest
apathy pre- wills among both officers and men
Al Lees army, and it is believed he will be un .
willing TO risk another battle with Meade, and
indeed it appears it is as much as he can ac-
complish to keep his army from falling to
pieces. Thee reports are obtained through
various channels, refugees and hers who
have Arrived here within a few days past, and
are considered reliable
Stirring events may be expected within the
next two or three weeks as the affairs OF the
bogus "Confederacy' are in such a critical
condition that collision may occur ri any
moment and the bubble burst.
Lees army is low only kept together by
threats and promises, and its disintegration
may take place any day when once a begin
ming is made by the withdrawal of the troons
OF one or more of the Sta'es mentioned.
