this city, copy Of which will be found
below. The writer bad probably seen in
the Chicago Times one Of J. c. Turk
veraeioas telegraphic messages from
this city announcing the election Of a
Copperhead Mayor, and the superstition
was that any functiohary Of that faith
would be safe depository for Copper
head confidence and congratulation.
But through the blessings Of Divine
Providence we haye loyal man for our
Municipal ruler, and in his answer he
gave a faithful representation of the
status Of Des Moines, politically, which
win be undoubtedly an eye-opener to his
Indiana correspondent Here are copies
of both letters:

THE NOMINATIONS.

The People, through their representatives in
Baltimore have presented ABRAHAM LINCOLN
for reelection as President of the United States.
This nomination is the result of long settled and
deliberate choice after trial of Mr. LINCOLN four
years as the chief officer Of the nation. He is
found to be capable, faithful and honest; devoted
to his country good. IF the usual indications of
Of preference 60 for any thing, majority of the
people Of this country demand the reelection Of
ABRAHAM LINCOLN. He has been surrounded
with difficulties such as no President, or all the
Presidents put together, have had to encounter.
The events that he has had to deal with are new to
the history of this country nor is parallel found
for them in the history of any other country. He
has constantly been called to act in the most Sc
rious and weighty affairs, without the light of pre-
cedent Never have such great and difficult and
various relations been dealt with by one man.
And now the judgement, of the men who placed
him at the head of aass, after the seyerest ordeal
that ever public man passed through, is that he
deserves well of his country He has not been
false to the interests of great nation. He has
not been tied down to the tenets or dogmas of any
party He has given himself up to the whole
country and if patriotism rules, the whole country
win unite in securing his reelection.
ANDREW JOHNSON, of Tennessee is the candid
ate for vice President He is the choice of the
people of Pennsylvania for this office. lie viii
add greatly to the strength Of the ticket in this
State Mr. JOHNSON has been from the outset a
thorough going Union man. thwarting..the schemes
of the Secessionists in Tennessee headed by Gov
Harris He has been faithful among the faith
less.
Thus the political campaign opens under tried
and trusted leaders The issue and the only rea
issue of this campaign is, our whole country.
Let the Union men of Bedford county arouse
themselves. Our county should be redeemed
And it viii be if the work is at once entered upon
with energy and activity.
