INCIDENTS OF THE ASSAULT.
THE CENTER AND LEFT

Confined their operations during the day
entirely to making a demonstration to at
tract attention from the attempt on theright
wing. The rebels, doubtless, understood
the matter, confident as they were that we
would not have the audacity to assault their
in front, and replied to it with shells and
round shot only. The troops did not come
into close quarters on this part of the line;
consequently the losses were nothing more
than the trivial wear and tear of the skir-
mish line, such as every day brings with it.

DEs MoINEs.--The contested cleo.
ton case between Leas (Republican)
and Morris (Copperhead) for the Office
of Mayor of the city of Des Moines,
has at length been decided in favor
Of Leas. who is nos the duly installed
Mayor of that city. The Copperheads
had, or claimed to have, q majority OF
the votes, but many of them being
fraudulent, the Court has wisely and
justly given the Office to the honestly
elected candidate. Mayor Leas is
an estimable man-a lover OF good or

and believed that he will at once in
augurate some of the many reforms
needed in that wicked and tumble.
