As your paper clrcu1atcs very extensively
al over our State, permit me: to correct 4
statement appearing In the Especial cores
fondcncc OF tho Chlcaso Evening .ourual,n
published on tho 9th inst. It Ia q surprising,
yet evident fact That the gentlemen who had
ming the machine" for tho state Of Iown, an
ticiPate tue passage Of the law providing for
the creation Of IN additional Judge Of tho
Supreme Court, even before tue Legislature
convened, and had found man upon whom
to cost tho sermtns,"
Although this WINS cndcavoring 70 produce
IN effect before the existence Of tl.c caihe;
to display result before the essential snuas
had begun to operate; to produce birth be-
foresconeeption (which to soy the lunst of ~
very unhealthy yet I am inclined to the
opinion (indcel mn confirmed in tho belief,
by reading the letter refer toy that such nrc
the facts. And now, Mr.. Editor, permit me-
upon this occasion to say, that Judge WI
iiams, Of Clayton county, has ;, ,niany, many
and had at the time the letter referred to wis
written. Thero Is no Inan In the northern
part Of tic Suite who stands higher IN the
estimation Of tho meMbers Of the General
Assembly who represent that people, than
does Judge: Williams. His abilities and
qualifications for the Supreme bench are
sccpHd. 10 Qp m0nB IN LIE otALe, Anu arr
recognized and appreciated In the section Of
the 6tate where be, resides a.:
This correspondent has also seen ut to cast
q foul imputatlon upon the name OF one of
the most ardent, able and loyul supporters Of
the Administration living In the State Of
Iowa. He says that Reuben Noble, Of Clay
ton county,:''is not regarded as sound sup,
porter Of the :Admfnistration.,!, This state.
ment IL! !unwarrautable, unjust md untrue:
If It is necessary, In the accomplishment of
ncfarious schemes, hatchcd and bred In Dcs
Moines, to. cast unwarrautable: imputations
upon men who ire loved and respected ut
home, for Gods sake, let your schemes go;
they are consummated 1t too dear cost.

rB The joint resolution amending the
joint resolution explanatory of the Conilsca-
tion oct Of 1862, is as follows: =
R<eolted, de-, That the Last clause Of a "5oInt
reaolution explanatory of an act to suppress in
sns7econ, to punish treason ard rebellion to seize
and confscate the property of rebels, and for other
purposes approved July II, 1862, be aud the
same hereby Ia 80 amended as to read: Nor shall
sny punishEeut or proceeding under said act be so
construed as to work forfeiture of the cst.te Of
the offender contrary to the Constitution OF the
United States.''
The resolution Is fairly through tho House
in It's present shape, explicitly within the
Constitution, and we trust Hill be passed by
the, Senate, and approved by the President.
Its acrms completely dispose Of the cavils of
tie, Copperhead press, that an unconstitu-
uonal confscation Of al rebel property Is
proposed by Congress.

admitted that the river, as they traced it,

1t also ran through it, having its real source
in the mountains Of the Moon, TO the east~
ward Of the lake, where, contrary to the gen
esal supposition, they lie in a northedy and
eouthcrly direction. In conclusion, DR.. Beke
announced that so dissatisfied was he with
the results Of the last two expeditions, and
60 certain was he Of the truth Of his own
theory, that he intended to undertake an e1-
1edition In person which should set the ques-
ton at rest forever, and public subscription
