Lost their Candidate Again.

GSy- The fellows who have been run
ming the Democratic machine in this
State, have had very serious trouble, for
some years back, in procuring some one
willing to enter the political ring, and
submit TO the inevitable punishment that
lie knows must be accorded him in The
contest with his Republican adversary.
We believe that in 1861, they selected
some three or four of their noted politi-
cal pugilsts before one could be induced
10 champion them. He Jared so badly
that it was not to be expected that such
a ,imid old gentleman as FISHER would
run the risk OF getting his "head into
chaneery :" and Notwithstanding MAHo-
NY's Establishments, HUrcH,Ns's denun-
citation, and general chorus Of threats
AMI promises from the whole Copperhead
fraternity, calculated 10 scare and to
coax the old gentlemen to consent, he
steadily refuses, and the Copperheads
are without champion. The same bed
lam, the same pandemonium OF noise
and strife, and pickering, must be again
invoked, out of which to bring man
who has the nerve 10 become the stan
dard bearer Of such an Infamous set OF
political characters as the Copperheads
Of Iowa.
The Dubuque Herald is, of course,
very wrothy. II thinks FISHER has been
tempered with by the friends Of FUTILE,
and declares its undying hostility to any
man protesting Democracy, who has
consented to serve ABRAHAM LINCOLN in
the army in the work Of whipping the
South. 1t almost threatens to support
she Union candidate in preference to
FUTILE, thinking COL STONE a good
deal more honest than Gen. FUTILE.
That would be serious misfortune, of
course, for Col. STONE, but we think
MAHoNY Will be forced to forego any

such Intention. We think he will 90 10
work to floor the TuTrLEITEs, and will
succeed, and will yet present to his fel,
low Copperheads a straight-out, unadul
terated, treason sympathizing ticket
Not that it can make The shadow of a
difference whether TUrrLE heads the
ticket or not. The people of Iowa can
have no confidence in any man who will
lend himself to such graceless Copper
heads rs those who took part in the late
Democratic State Convention, even tho
he should be fresh from the army. The
friends Of Gen. FUTILE have been
equally obnoxious to loyal sentiment as
are the MAnoHys, and HUTcHINs, and
BYiNeToNs. The people know that the
scheme to put FUTILE in nomination, is
but dishonest one. They know that

Gen. Heron will take back some four or five
thousand bales of cotton, a large number of
mules, horses and wagons, and some $50 pris-
oners. The energy and success of this expedi-
ton evinces how we'll Gen. Heron has his mr.
my in hand.
1t is composed-both its Generals and the
men-of the heroes of Wilson's Greek, Pea
Ridge, and Prairie Grove. Having never been
whipped the army undoubtedly believes that
with Gen. Heron at its head they can whip
five times their number of the troops of the
chivalrlc south. They know they have always
had about that odds against them, and they
were equal TO all emergencies. Brig. Gems.
| Nandcver and Orme are among tho best in the
service, and are not behind Gen. Heron in en-
! ergy and activity. The machinery of the Ar

allegiance to the u S. Upon inquiry, howev-
er, they are generally found not to be slave

We have some 1000 bales ALREADY, and shall
have some 1000 or 5000 bales when fully

crate government-eXcept what belong to in
dividual rebels. The crop of cotton and Mig
gers on the levee must astonish the Oldest in

shall soon have contrabands and cotton enough

are probably living now better than their mas

And just to put you on your guard,
I'll give you, short and brief,
4 small hotel experience
Which filled my heart with grief:
Last GUNNER, at the Pavilion atotC
stopped week or more,
And marked two " boot-ees" every morn
8efore my neighbours door;
Two hoots with patent leather tips,
Two boots which seemed to say,
8 An angel trots around in u.s."
They stole my heart away,
And often in my nightly dreams
they swept before my face,
A lady growing out of then
AS flowers grow from a vase.
But an! one morn saw a sight
Which struck rae like a stone,
Some other name was on the book
Those boots were not alone!
A great tall pair of other boot
Was standing by their side,
And off they walked one afternoon
And with them walked-a bride.

al PARTICULARS OF the raid to Van }ureD have been
received. Our army was ten miles this side of
Van Buren, yesterday, and would biv0uac on the
mountain top last night, and expected to reach
Prairie Grove again to-day. Gen. SehOfeld
joined them few miles beyond the foot of the
mountain.
The steamers, Violet Rose, Douglas, Freder-
lex, Northerbe, Are, No. q, and Van Buren,,
with their cargoes Of grain and provisions for
the rebel army were burned also large
amount of army stores. The rebels burned
their arsenal and ferry boats at Fort Smith to
prevent them from falling into our hands also
"a large quantity of provisions on tAe opposite
bluks Of the river. A general conaagration
was in progress when our forces left.
MANY deserters come into our lines, who re-
port that two regiments OF Missourans stacked
their arms. few days ago, crossed the river
and went home. Another regiment Of Nilsson
rians left a short time after, taking their arms
with them. Two regiments OF Texans also
stacked their arms and started for home A
regiment of cavalry was sent in pursuit, bat in
stead of arresting them, they joined the runa-
ways. Everything goes to show that the rebel
army of trans Mississippi is completely dsor-
gained.
Our troops are in splendid spirits, having &C
complished q most daring and successful raid
