CHATTANOOGA, Sept. 18th, 1868.
DEAR DEMOCRAT We still hold the
key to the Gulf States the Copperhead's S
wishes TO the contrary Notwithstanding -
The gallant little Army of the Cumber-
land is not anuihilated although it has
borne the brunt of the whole Southern
Confederacy in the late sanguinary bat
ties before Chattanooga. We fell back to
the town OF, the ED and now are waiting
for an attack in our hastily constructed
trenches and earthworks. In falling back
We gave up our hospitals and the field OF
battle, but the rebel hordes from Virginia
we're so sceefely punished and cut up that
they have dread Of the Western boys and
have not nolested US since. Sharpshoot-
ing, caDnouading, at long range, digging
trenches, fortifying and speculating on
the thousand camp rumors seem the order
of the day. Long continued excitement
and anxiety has given way to lassitude
and an Indifference to the flying shot and
she'll with which we are occasionally COM
plimented by the Conthieveocracy over
the way. At first when the booming Of
cannon followed by curl of white smoke
away of in front, would startl: US, the
troops 7ould jump nimbly on the breast
works anu look for the effect OF the shot,
but now, a canroa shot hardly excites re-
mark and the sleeper sleeps on down in
the trenches unminaful Of anything but
"dinner' and ''fail in" For the past few
nights the camps have been aroused by
occasional volleys of musketry at the pick
ct line and front row Of breastworks, but,
beyond few casualties and the taking of
few dirty, hatless rebels, prisoners, it
amounted to nothing.
A flag Of truce came in yesterday re-
auesting US to send for our wounded and
to bury our dead They could not care
for our wounded who have been lying
about the fields and in farm houses for one
week. Hundreds have died in conse-
quenee. Our brave boys body's have lain
in the sun unburied tor days, no doubt
stripped of their clothing and all else use
full, by the chivalry The sight of our
men and the appearance Of the field must
be horrible in the extreme, A long train
Of a,nbulances bave gone out, the rebels
furnishing drivers;
Chattanooga, which for long time has
been the goal Of our ambition, seems hard
ly worth taking, considered as town,
but the position, is its importance to U.s.
The place reminds one of large railway
way station with its two large depots, ma

Col. Miller, on his appearance before our
citizens on Thursday evening, at the Court
House, was greeted by the presence of one
of the largest political assemblages we
haye ever seen in Winona. His address,
which occupied About one hour in the de-
livery, was characterized by degree Of
marked good sense and tervent patriotism
which produced a very favorable influence
Upon his audience, and creased the re-
gard for him which the public has very
generally entertained. Without making
any pretentions to oratory, Col: Miller ex-
presses his thodghts in q very fluent man
ner, usually expressed in: language which
cannot be misunderstood. His remarks
upon the occasion in question were mainly
directed to drawing contrast between the
positions OF the two parties in this State,
as exhibited in their respective platforms.
The lifeless non-commitalism of the Cop
perhead platform, amounting to manifest
hostility to the Government and the war.
was clearly portrayed; while the sophis-
tries Of MI. Welles, the Democratic nom
inee for Governor, contained in his speech
delivered at Minneapolis, were set forth in
their true light.
Col. Miller read to his audience the pa
triotic Robertson resolution, which the cop
perhead Convention rejected. Its uncon-
ditional fealty to the Government and flag
Of the United States was too strong for
the weak stomachs Of the Peace Democra-
cy. The speaker endorsed it's every SEN
timent, expressing the belief that every
patriot in the State, regardless of party
ties, did the same.
The Colonel closed with a glowing eulo-
GUM on the bravery of the Minnesota
First regiment, with which he had so long
been connected on the "tented feld.' -
He also spoke feelingly, and in a manner
which did credit alike to his head and
heart, Of his separation from the Seventh
regiment, just departed for the seat of war
at the South. .
During the delivery Of his remarks he
was frequently applauded. The audience
broke up we'll satisfied, and the feeling was
general among all who had listened to him
that in Colonel Miller the State Of Mime
sofa will havea good Governor Wnona

A seeming stranger, among a stranger people
The world will colder seem to you

When 'mong your youthful fiiends you lived

Will seem more formal too, more strangely

Than when, like young dove, resting among
The friends of youth, your soul Vas free,
And pure as that transparent river. which
In majesty flowed near the threshold
OF your own wild western home!

Thy happy smile. We'll miss you then,
Fen as you'll miss US, when in the mixed gay

In His unerring judgement e'er decree,
