R Many Of the Copperhead papers
are down on the hundred day call. Il is
all wrong in their view, it ought to have
been for longer time. or for the whole
country, or it ought to have been draft,
or it ought not to have been made till fall,
or it ought to have been made last fall.
Any way, but the way it is, would have
suited, them better, but the way it is
promises to be injurious to their "South-
ern brethren and is open to thousand
objections. If they can possibly prevent
the people of the Northwe from render
ing aid and comfort to our gallant SOL
diers in the field they will do it, and If
they can induce them to aid and comfort
the rebels they will do that too. They
are doing it with a will now, in throwing
cold water "a the patriotic enthusiasm
of the people, and holding them back
from the field SO as to give the rebel SOL
diers better chance against our gallant
troops already in service.
But so these Copp perhead sheets have
operated from the beginning to discoar-
age enlistments; they denounced every
call for troops by the Government and
found fault every time. Coercion was
unconstitutional; the President has NO
right to require troops to leave their own
State to fight it wasn't fair to call for
volunteers--there ought TO be draft and
fually the draft was unconstitational,
and it was an Abolition war in which DO
Democrat ought to be required to tight.
This is but glance at the objections
which have in turn been urged agains. ev-
cry effort to recruit our force in. the field.
They have prophecied from time to time
that ''the last army of the Republic has
been raised, and they have labored
strenuously to secure the ful6llment Of
their own predictions. Thus fer, their
efforts have proved Intellectual, and We
trust that they will have no better sue-
cess in time to come.

BENroNspoRr, April 80, 1864.
Mr.. Editor: The loyal State Of Iowa
is second to no other State in agriculture
as far as cultivated, and this year I find
there is dete animation on The part Of the
farmers of the State that she shall ca ual
if not exceed any former year in that line.
There must and will be extra exertioris on
their part, as that kind of labor has been
greatly diminished since the war COM
menced, more SO than in any other de-
partment. sslss
And now comes an address from Gov.
Stone, asking for ten thousand more mes
to fill his promise to the President, which
must be raised; consequently, thsrs muss
necessarily be another draft from the
tillers of the ground. Now. Mr.. Editor,
please allow me to make one suggestion,
not thinking, however. ofimproving much
on the communication from lady ssB 2
We have thousands Of soldiers Iayinc
round the hospitals in different places Who
are not able to do duty, are an expense
to the Government, aud yet are able e
travel about the streets, and il they were ,sa,
at home would be able to do some work
bemuch better Of, and gain their health
much faster. Let them have furlouct
Of one hundred days to 30 home and a,
what they can to gil the place of thos,
who are now turning out To- answer III
request of the Governor, and help ,vha
they can in 50 shot . time to put dow dS.

THE POST OFFICE RoBBERY.-Yesterday,
Justice Thompson held an examination of the
case of Edward &. Smith, charged with fraud
ulently obtaining letter from the post Office
containing money, addressed to Ephraim L.
Smith, which resulted in his final commit
ment for court. 1t appeared from the evidence
that Ephraim Smith is the father of the
cused, and had left some money in the hands
of a MIR. Cooper, of Glendale, Camden county,
n. j., which fact comm to the knowledge of
the prisoner, he addressed a letter In the
fathers name for a remittance and received
it. A second call was made in a few days,
which excited suspicion, and Mr.. Cooper in
formed the father, who took measures to ferret
out the matter, little dreaming that his own
son was the cuiprit. A decoy letter was then
placed in the office, when his son called and
obtained it, and was arrested.
