Editor Upton Advertiser:-At the re-
quest of prominent and influential Dem
ocrats of this vicinity | am seated to
write an account of the largest, most re-
spectacle and enthusiastic Democratic
meeting ever held in this section Of coun.
try.
According to previous notice and gen
eral invita'outhe people of this neigh
borhood and vicinity assembled with one
accord in the large and commodious
school house, last evening, to listen to an
address by Mr.. ingalls,, of Duran.. Meet.
ing called to order by Mr.. Wilhelm, of
Inland, Cedar county, who nominated
Mr.. j. r. Ferguson, a staunch and llte
long Democrat, for President. -Four or
five voted aye-noes uncalled for. Mr..
Ferguson asked pitifully, "Be | elect

whercupon the chairman elect arose and
shall say stated the nature and object
of tho meeting, and spoke in touching
and eloquent terms of our dearly loved
native land, our bleeding country, con.
vulsed to its hearts core by an intestine
war, waged with demons mallgnity
by thrice accurscd traitors, against the
best government the sun ever saw 10 all
his course? No! not bit of that; for
it was a Democratic meeting. He mere

that he had been invited to address a
Union (?) Democratic Meeting, and he
therefore supposed the present assem-,
blage to be such meeting. tie had
been lost on the prairie and wandered
about for two hours, and he believed that
if anything "would or could corrupt a
mans morals it was wandering around
on the prairie" He is out of danger.
The speaker informed the meeting that

The Chicago Times notices big hog

was a mistake, that "it should have been
called Gen Butler as he is the biggest
beast in the American army And so
wherever you find man who has done
his duty, these men viii denounce him.
These men may be loyal, but it is unfor.
tuuate for them that they agree with
traitors so well. By so doing they are
infusipg ten fold vigor into the rebel
ranks

A Gar Time In Abingdon.

On Saturday week last, "Scene" oc-
Cured at Abingdon, that will not soon
be forgotten. As the matter was rela-
ted to us, it is about as follows: The
Union men of that village had held a
meeting in the United Brethren Church
on the Thursday evening previous, and
on Saturday morning the Union ladies,
armed with brooms. were proceeding to
the church to clean it out, when their
movement was observed by a number of
ladies of the butternut persuasion"
who determined that the Abolitionists,
as they termed them, should not cleanse
the sanctuary, but that they would do it
themselves. Accordingly they took
q short cut" and when the Union ladies
arrived at the church, they found it
guarded by superior number of their
butternut sisters. The Union ladies en-
deavored to explain, but they we're told
it was mo use talking" they couldn't
enter the church without they were the
stronger party A war of words then
commenced between the women, which
became very warm. The leader of the
Butternut women was very much excited.
She cracked her fists in the most APPROX
ed style, and "swore like trooper
Shewears false upper teeth that :" ct her

toe much" and the rapidity with which
she used her tongue, unfastened them in
front, and for some minutes they went
through the movement, up and down,
with the regularity of a pendulum, as
they were touched by her tongue. One
of the Union ladies, who belonged to the
same church that the excited woman did,
was shocked at her profanity, and re-
marked, "Sister -, am surprised
at you'll thought you was Christian"
Christian be id" replied the excited
feminine, Christianity's about played
out in Abingdon
The Union ladies finding remonstrance
in vain, started for home, when the But
ternut ladies opened a volley of brick
bats, clubs and other missiles, which
caused the Union women to retreat in
! disorder-one woman who had been
struck on the ankle with brickb:t, 60
ing with chop, step and a jump"
The young man that was drummed out
of the camp of the 57th regiment, in this
city, was present, directing the move
ments of the attacking party, and Hot-
Tered Justify when the Union women re-
treated
Tranquility once more reigns in Alb
ington-the Union women yielding the
right to their Butternut sisters to keep
the church in order-remoye the guilds
and cleanse the floor of tobacco juice.
1t was great sacrifice, but they made it
for the sake of peace.-RichmOnd Iete-

General Smith to look after the rebels

The HeOsiers Among the Rebels.

The telegraph this morning brings US
fuller particulars of the brilliant dash of
Gen. Joe Reynolds, into the lines of the
rebels at McMinnviHe.
This looks Ike business, and is an ex-
ample that we would gladly see followed
up by other divisions of our great ar
mics.
McMinnville is a little south of east
from Murfreesboro, about so miles dis
tant, on a branch railroad, running from
the Nashville & Chattanooga R. R., at
Hillsboro to Sparta, and is fairly within
the rebel lines.
To what extent the railroad has been
damaged, our dispatches do not state,
but the destruction of trains, and OF vast
quantities of supplies, is a most serious
loss to the rebels. So also is the destruc-
ton of the mills engaged in grinding for
the rebels, and the large factory engaged
in manufacturing clothing for their ar
my.
The feasibility of this expedition was
explained to us a week ago by Col. Bob
Stewart, on still more extensive one,
end We know of no man, who if given
the command of 1000 well appointed
cavalry, with a few pieces of flying ar
tillery, would take greater pleasure
in making such an expedition, or who
would do it more successfully than Col
Stewart, and we heartily endorse the re-
concentration of the indianapolis Journal,
that Col. Stewart be awarded the star of
Brigadier General, to which his gal
liant services in thirty-three holly con-
tested battles, and his sufferings, while a
prisoner of war, entitle him, and that he
be assigned 10 just this duty.
He possesses tie dash, the fervor and
the personal incentive of wrongs tc
avenge, that would render him more ter
rible to the rebels than jackson, Stuart
and Morgan combined, ever supposed
themselves to the Federals.
The destruction of rebel supplies, and thu
rolling stock on their railroads would bt
the most disastl Gus warfare that coulC
be waged upon them.
Col Carriers expedition to East Ten
--
McMinnville, clearly prove the prac
tieability of such movements, and an ex
changed prisoner informs us that the cut
ting of the Tennessee and Virginia Raj
road, produced more terror in the mind
of the rebels than their signal defeat a
Stone River
Let such brilliant feats, SO creditabl
to our arms, and so replete with iniur
and grief to our enemies be multiple,
an hundred fold.
