A Colonel, commanding one Of our
Iowa regiments at the South, writes
60 . private letter in which he says !:
I think the crisis demands at our
hands united effort. have no fear
~ to the result in Iowa, but | think it
essential to roll up the figures that the
world may see Iowa talks right, votes
right and acts right. Every effort
is being made to deceive our people.
! claim that we are the only real peace
party in the country aud that our only
hope Of speedy and permanent peace
10 to prosecute the war with vigor and
reflect Mr.. Lincoln. His reelection,
in my opinion, cuts of the last hope
of the rebels and virtually ends the
war. The end is beginning to appear
The situation Of the rebels is fast APP
preaching desperation, and now is the
time to hold them TO it. We want no
LIT UP policy at this critical juncture.
An armistice would be an insult and
outrage to the army.

The Elections.

In Pennsylvania the home vote is
very close. but the soldiers vote will
make the Union majority about 90, 900.
Ohio gives Us on the home vote
over 10000 majority, and we gain IL
or IL members Of Congress. ...
Indiana gives nearly 10000 Union
majority, and elects 8, possibly ., Un-
ion Congressman.
Maryland has undoubtedly adopted
her new free Constitution.
To beat the Democracy in Pennsyl-
vania, crush the Copperheads in India
M, annihilate the Peace party in Ohio,
and redeem Maryland from the yoke
OF slavery, also add more than twenty
members to our strength in Congress,
is pretty good work for the October
elections.
Among the most gratifying results
OF these elections is the defeat of the
pestilcnt Long. Cox and Pugh in Ohio,
and possibly Worries in Indiana.
These suspicious results were no
doubt powerfully aided by recent de-
velopments Of the formidable Copper
head conspiracy which pervades Indi.
ana and other western States, having
sympathy with the rebellion as its
impulse, and Northwestern Confed-
eracy, in alliance with the Southern
Confcderacy. whereof it is ultimately
to form = part. This traitorous in.
trigue has been signally rebuked in
the reelection of Gov. Morton Of In.
diana. and the magnificent Union tri-
umph whereof it is an item. If the
Copperheads do not by this time com.
prehend that the People will not allow
the Union to be subverted any how,
they must be impervious to demon
stration. n &fn@t.Ha a#

A WONDERFUL DREAM.

Major Jack Downing relates re-
markable dream he had to the "Iler-
nel," II thought was in grave
yard, and there was a great big grave
dug, large enough to hold four or five
coffins, and while l was standing there
wondering what on earth the grave
was for, / saw big black hearse
coming and Stanton was driving it. !
wondered what on airth could be in
the hcarse, for it seemed to be heavy
loaded Right behind the hcarsc
walkin along were you and Sumner,
and Greeley and Chase, and old Grand
father Welles. Pretty soon you oil
went to work taking out the coffin and
gcttin ready to put them in the grave
The first one tux out was marked
"habcas corpus" the second one ''tiial
by Jury" then the "Union," and then
''the Constitution" When they were
all out on tho ground some dispute
riz as 10 which should be buried first,
but Greeley cut IL short by sayin,
s'put the Constitution under, and oil
disc follows" So Greeley gothic rope
under one end of the coffin snd Sum
ner under the other and began to let
it down. Whileit was goin down you
looked kinder axious TO Chase, aud
sss you, "Chasc, think IL will stay
down." my God, Kernel, il must
stay down, or wo will go up" Greeley
was tickled almost to dcath and ses
no, 1--WE shall bury II now so that il
win nevcr be heard Of again." Old
Grandfather Wclles, however, seemed
haf frightened 70 death, and trem-
