LETTER FROM GAINESVILLE.

Correspondence OF the Cedar r.lls Gazette.
~ CLAEKsvILLx, Oct 3is., 1854.
MEssRs. EDlroRs: Last Tuesday evening A
political meeting was held at the stone school
house in GAINESVILLE, at which speeches were
made by. lawyer Burke, of Wsverly, L. D.
lngcrsol, Esq, of Washington, and Judge
Fairfield, Of Charles City. These gentlemen
all made good speeches, showing the necessi.
ty Of supporting the administration by re.
electing Lincoln, and thus to thrash the reb.
els, destroy slavery and restore the Union on
basis that will be permanent. "a
Judge Fletcher has returned from his visit
in Pennsylvania, and he has also left the
Copperhead party and come out squarely for
Lincoln and the Union. The Judge has long
been considered as the leader Of that party
here, and consequently they feel very sore
over his conversion. His acquisition to the
Republican Union party will soon be felt, as
ho has consented to address the people in
this place on some evening Of this week,
when he will give his views and the reasons
which led him to the important step he has
taken. $50"
One Of the drafted men from this town has
procured q substitute by paying SCoo Some
Of the others are also trying to get substitutes
and thus to get home. LII

soLDlssRS, ORPHAN ASYLUM.

Mr.. EDlroR We ask the attention Of the
people to the appointment of Rev. p. p. In.
gals, at Cedar Falls, Nov. 9th, in behalf Of
the home of Orphans, made such by our
campaigns and battle fields. His success in
the army, where he raised thousands of dol.
lars, and tic great interest for this cause
which is being awakened among the people
by his meetings, exceeds the highest expect
atoms of its friends. The people every
where take hold Of this work with remark
able unaniinity and warmth of heart. The
Iowa Valley Baptist Association, and the
Upper Iowa Conference, passed resolutions
highly commencing this sacred and iinpor-
tant work The Grand Lodge (Masonic)
appropriated one hundred dollars annually,
for the period Of five years: this but indi-
Gates the general feeling on this subject.
Mr.. Ingalls, has been identified with The
army and knows we'll the opinion and feel
ing of the soldiers with regard to the Or
phans' Home. He will describe scenes in.
the camps and the liberalty Of the army
He delights to speak highly -four brave men
in their moral merit as well as their valerous
deeds. The great alienation and comfort
afforded the sick and wounded by the Aid
Societies has como largely under his obser-
walton, and he takes pleasure in giving credit
to these societies for their great and good
work. ... .....s ..a' .a PCS
The high esteem in which Mr.. ingalls, is
held by the army, appears in the following

BEWARE of Coppcrheld stories!

SoMn Tennessee copperhcads, who are
anxious to get the vote of rebel soldiers to
aid them in carrying the State for Mcclellan,
sent the President protest against Governor
Johnson's Proclamation touching the election
in that State. The President returned them
= straightforward answer, declining to inter
fcrc in the matter. as he believed IL to be out
Of his line Of duty, and having perfect con
fdence in Gov. Johnson that he will isstly
and wisely discharge his official duties. He
improves the opportunity to give them a lit
tie good advice, which they would be wiser
men If they would accept and act upon.
