ANOTHER REpuDIATIox.-Whe the unskiu-
ed manipulators of the Copperhead coalition
scheme would get up manifestoea against
Union officers they should be careful to forge
in the signatures thereunto. only the names

particularly unfortunate in the not at all for
midable s'raid'' they made upon Col. Hills.
Here is a voice from another gallant soldier,
whose name appeared appended to the article
referred to:
KEoKuK, Iowa. Aug. l6. 1865.
Editor Gate city: | see that my name is
attached among others, to a letter published
in the Constitution, bearing date the 18th
inst, making an attack ON Colonel Hills. of
the 18th regiment Iowa infantry Now
wish to say to the public that was musician
in that regiment. and, of course, am well
acquainted with Col. Hills, and know him to
be KIDD and courageous gentleman and offit
Ger: and am satisfied that the charges and
inuerdoes, against him are false, and my
name was appended thereto without nv
kno,rledge or consent. So far as the charge
goes, that Colonel Hills attempted to break
up the so-called Soldiers Convention, at
Charleston, also know that is false for
was there, and went for the purpose Of par
ticipating with that meeting. But when
got there and saw the kind of men, who were
running the machine" l respectfully de-
clined and, afterwards, in connection with
Colonel Hills and others, took part in the
soldiers convention Of which Colonel Parrot
was chairman.
Yours, respectfully,

Why Soldiers SIlOnld Not Vote
Fer SlOne.
lst He has been accused by one of the
prominent abolition journals Of Iowa of of.
iering to take an oath, when in prison &c
Richmond, never to fight against the Con
federacy again if released. and he tried to
persuade his comrades to do SO. This charge
he does not deny.
End. At meeting Of Federal officers in
prison, Stone, DR.. Gregg, and one whose
name we have not learned, were appointed a
committee to wait upon tho President and
request general exchange, and they pledg-
ed their sacred words Of honor that they
would not accept special exchange, but
would return to prison ifa general exchange
was not effected. Stone accepted special
exchange, while the other two returned to
priso, We have this from officers oe the
l4th Iowa Infantry N7
3rd As an officer. ae was overbear ng,
and dis,.ked by his Subordinate officers. and
his men.
4th. He i in .taror Of Negro Sg6ragey
9th. Every soldier who has seen the ey.
cry day life Of the negroes, scorns the asser
ton that black is his equal, and knows
that they are too ignorant to know how to
vote.
9th. Ifthey are allowed the right Of suf-
frage, their votes will be controlled by the
men who employ them at the South, their
old masters will get into power, and all your
tolls and battles will be fruitless.
7th. II Iowa gives the negro the right Of
suffrage, Missouri will be emptied Of its lazy
myriads, and we will have them to support.
9th. The recent b. utal .outrages in Ken
tucky and Indiana, by negroes, teach us
that their degraded impulses m1st be held
in subsection.
