STIRRING NEWS FROM THE FRONT!
GRANTS NEW MOVEMENT IN sue.
CESSFUL PROGRESS!
A REBEL ATTACK BRILLIANTLY RE-
PULSED!
THE ENEMY DRIVEN NEARLY a MILE
WITH HEAVY LOSS!
REBEL PRISONERS CAPTURED.
SHERIDAN HEARD FROM!

Correspondence from the advance of the
Army of the Potomac, Hatcher's Run, dated
Thursday morning, showed the locality Of
our army under Grant at that time to be in
a line parallel with and east of the Boydton
Plank Road and west Of Hatcher's Run.
Grant had thus planted himself within five
miles Of the Southside Road, and though the
rebels would doubtless endeavor to resist his
occupation of that vital link to their Rich
mond connections, such resistance must be
futile.
These important positions had been gained
with but little resistance by the enemy.
The Fifth Corps had a sharp encounter with
the enemy on the "Quaker Road" on We'd
nesday, but lost in the affair less than three
hundred men, and drove the rebels nearly a
mile with serious loss to them, (the rebels),
and captured from them quite a number OF
prisoners.
While Grant is making this formidable ad-
vance movement all our old positions before
Petersburg and at City Point and on the north
side Of the James are adequately held, and are
so strongly fortified as to be able to resist any
attack, should Lee be desperate enough to
make the attempt.
Richmond papers of Wednesday report that
Sheridan passed through Dinwiddie Court
House on Wednesday morning, and they think
his destination is the South Side Road.
The Richmond papers say that nothing has
been heard from Johnston since the battle OF
Averysboro.
The negro canal boatman whose boat was
smashed up by Sheridan on his late raid, and
who was so lionized by the Richmond papers
as having joined the rebel colored recruits In
ferver OF indignation against the Yankees.
mas deserted to our lines, and brings with him
twenty new rebel uniforms.

pany with ayoung friend to visit tho grave
OF Julian Dubuque, the founder OF the Key

accomplishing our short but hilly or
"bluffy' journey, we pronounced it the

Tho pathway leading to the grave was
similar to Scottish shesp-walk in tho

! us formed a fine natural arbor to protect
us from the SUMS warm rays. Several Of

Capt. Geo. w. Clark, Chairman Committee:
Your letter Of the Goth inst, informing
me Of my nomination as candidate for
Lieutenant Governor by the Soldiers con-
vention, held at tes Moihes ON the 25d

kindness intended ins by the convention.
and regret exceedingly that cannot ac-
cept the nomination, coming from those
brave and patriotic men with whom have
been so intimately associated for the past
three years. Ifeel deeply. in comrion with
the soldiers Of Iowa, the insult that was
practieed upon us by the haste with which
the Republican convention was called. II
justice had been done We would at least
have been invited to send delegates. lam
opposed, too, to the proposition to strike
the.word "white" out OF the Constitution,
contained in the Republican Platform
But do not believe that il is u cariinal
principle Of the Republican party; and I
believe that we can better right those evils
by remaining in the Republican party
than we can by leaving it and joining hands
with these men who have opposed us in
this war. and done all In their power to
cripple our government. The hearts Of
the greater part Of the Republican party
are right, and hereafter. a, it has been In
the past, our only hope for the future well
fare Of our country is in the integrity and
patriotism OF the party who have stood by
the Government during the rebelliofl; and
it is our duty as soldiers to remain with
that party-see that it is not corrupted by
schetnihg politicians. I believe it, to be
our dnty, for the respect we, have for our
State and for our true comrade. to support
Col. Benton for Governor. But no such
necessity exists in reference to the oth0r
candidates on the Republican. ticket. .a
