ing to be a candidate for Supreme
Judge, in which bo says: k
I shall not bo a condhfste ftf tho
following reasons
1st. do not want the office.
2d. If I wanted it I could not get
it, and I am unwilling that my friends
in the north shall expend thousands of
dollars, and much valuable time, in
making a journey in force to Dos
Moines, when defeat awaits them."
On this aultyael the
•ays
Oh many accounts we regret flits
decision. It would give us great
pleasure to support Mr. Noble for this
position, because he is amply qualified,
and has a good record. lie is a great
favorite in the northern counties of
this Stato, and the Union men of this
portion of the State desire some recog
nition of their claims to be well rep
resented on the State ticket. Never
theless we fully appreciato tho force
of his reasons, to wit that the war
Democrats demand the nomination of
Judge Cole, (who was appointed to
fill the vacancy,) and that Mr. Noblo
Jives too for north to be regarded fa
vorably by a Des Moines convention.
Between Mr. Noblo and Mr. Cole,
we have a decided preference, and
the repeated ignoring of the claims of
the strong Union counties of upper
Iowa is not calculated to produce a
very marked state of concord. There
are very many who, in the event of Mr.
Cole's •nomination, will mfc blank for that
offiee. We do not counsel such pro
ceedings we regard thom as disinte
grating and highly reprehensible but
the honorable gentlemen who attempt
to shape tho Stato ticket from year to
year, and leave the strong Union coun
ties of this portion of tho State, the
empty honor of marching in solid
phalanx to tho polls on every election
day, will sometime find that the UttWta
of forbearanco are reached."
Tho Dccorah Republic, alluding to
tho declination of Mr. Noble, uses the
following language:
"The southern Iowa politicians re
mind one of the Blaveholding politi
cians. For long years the slavcdrivers
ruled us with a rod of iron, using the
dough-faco north as howers of wood
and drawers of water but then a
day camo when the freemen revolted
from their task-masters, and wo have
not tho slightest doubt but that tho
day is near when southern Iowa poli
ticians will find themselves left to pad'
die their otrn canoe It is comc to be
understood that no man can have a
nomination on the State ticket unless
he is a member of tho Clique or a
toady to it. Stato Conventions arc
called, not to eonfer, deliberate and make
up by general consent a matured ver
dict, but conventions aro called to
ratify what the Clique have foreor
dained. Under a certain condition of
affairs such treatment may be endured
for a length of time but circumstan
ces are sure to alter cases, and those
changing circumstances may be near
at hand."
The Washington Republican, reputed
to speak tho views of tho Prosident,
says It is evident that the traitors

believe that their recent organization

run in Ohio for some time because of
tho pre occupation of tho Government
in more important affairs thau the
movements of a single rebel. It is
probable that Yallandighain will bo
arrested by the proper authorities, in
the course of time, and that this last
flanking movement of the rebels will
como to naught"

Hon. Wm. B. Allison has our thanks
for a volume of tho Report showing

in 18G0 compiled from tho returns
of the 8th Census. Also, for a volume
containing the Reports of the Commit
tee on the Conduct of the War in ref
erence to tho Furt Pillow Massacre,
and our returned prisoners at Annap
olis. This latter report is accompa
nied with several engravings copied
from photographs of the poor emacia
ted men (exchanged prisoners) after
several months imprisonment at Rich
mond. The Committee say:
Tho evidence proves, beyond all
manner of doubt, a determination on
the part of tbe rebel authorities, de
liberately and persistently practiced
for a long time past, to subject those
of our soldiers who have been so un
fortunate as to fall in their bands to a
system of treatment which has result
ed in reducing many of those who
have survived and been permitted to
return to us to a condition, both physi
cally and mentally, which no language
wo can use can adequately describe.
Though nearly all tbe patients now in
tho Naval Academy hospital at An
napolis, and in the West hospital, in
Baltimore, have been under the kind
est and most intelligent treatment for
about three weeks past, and many of
them for a greater length of time, still
they present literally the appearance
of living skeletons, many of them be
ing nothing but skin and bone some
of them aro maimed for life, having
been frozen while exposed to the in
clemency of tho winter season on
Belle Isle, being compollcd to lie on
the baro ground, without tents or
blankets, some of them without over
coats, or even coats, with but little
fire to mitigate the severity of the
winds and storms to which they were
exposed.
The testimony shows that the gen
eral practico of their captors was to
rob them, as soon as they were taken
prisoners, of all their money, valua
bles, blankets, and good clothing, for
which they received nothing in ex
change except, perhaps, some old worn
out robel clothing hardly better than
none at all. I'pon their arrival at
Richmond they havo been confined,
without blankets or other covering,
in buildings without fire, or upon Belle
Isle with, in many cases, uo shelter,
and iu others with nothing but old
discarded army tents, so injured by
rents and holes as to present but lit
tle barrier to the wind and storms
on several occasions, the witnesses
say, they havo arisen iu the morning
from their resting-places upon the
bare eaith, and found several of their
comrades frozen to death during the
night, and that many others would
have met the same fate had they not
walked rapidly back and forth, dur
ing the hours which should have been
devoted to sleep, for the purpose of re
tniuing sufficient warmth to preserve
life.
In respect to the food furnished to
our men by the rebel authorities, the
testimony proves that the ratiou of
cach man was totally insufficient in
quantity to preserve the health of a
child, even had it been of proper qual
ity, which it was not. It consisted
usually, at tho most, of two small
pieces of corn-bread, made in many
instances, as tho witnesses state, of
corn and cobs ground together, and
badly prepared and cookcd, of, at
times, about two ounces of meat, usu
ally of poor quality, aud unfit to be
eaten, and occasionally a few^ black
worm eaten beans, or somethiug of
that kind.
Tbe surgeon in charge of the Hos
pital at Baltimore, «ot# to tbe
Committee, says:
I am very sorry your commfttce
could not have seen these cases when
first received. No one, from these
pictures, can form a true estimate of
their condition then. Not one in ten
was able to stand alone somo of
them so eovered aud eaten by vermin
that they nearly resembled cases of
small-pox, aud so emaciated that they
were really living skeletons, aud hard
ly that, as the result shows, forty out
of one hundred aud four having died
up to this date. If there has been
auything so horrible, so fiendish, as
this wholesale starvation, in the his*
tory of this satanic rebellion, I have
failed to note it. Better the massa
cres at Lawrence, Fort Pillow, and
Plymouth than to be thus starved to
death by inches, through long aud
weary months. I wish 1 had posses
sed tho power to compel all the north
ern fiympathizers with this rebellion
to come iu and look upon tho work of
the cht itdrous sons of the hospitable and
suuny south when these skeletons were
first received hero.

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE.
President Lincoln.
President Lincoln left Washington
on Monday, 20th inst., to visit (en
eral Grant on James river. One of
the President's old, personal and inti
mate friends, who had a conversation
with him recently, says Mr. Lincoln
is extremely anxious in regard to Gen.
Grant's operations—that tho Presi
dent baa the greatest confidence in the
General's military capacity, and givea
him his utmoat aid and co-operation,
entrusting all the military plans and
movements to him, and that the
most perfect accord exists between
the Executive and the Lieut. General,
who are in daily correspondence. The
President is firmly of the opiuion that
Gen. Grant will havo possession of
Richmond by tho 4th of July, although
ho would not bo disappointed if the
event would be delayed a few days la
ter. He thinks the robellion will ba
perfectly subdued before his Presiden
tial term expires—that ia, if the loyal
peoplo sustain tbe Government and
keep up the army aa faithfully aud
promptly as they have thus far.
The President, in the conversation
referred to, spoko feelingly ami with
deep emotion of the patriotic fidelity
aud generous liberality of tho North
ern people, as exhibited iu their con
tributions of men and money for the
maintenance of the nation's honor and
power. Such a people," remarked
Mr. Lincoln, can never fail, and they
deserve and will receive the proudest
place in the history of nations." lie
also very feeliugly alluded to tho confi
dence that tho loyal people manifest
in him. I do my best to deserve
this," he rmarked, but I tremble at
the responsibility that devolves upon
me, a weak, mortal man, to serve
such a great and generous people, in
such a place as 1 hold, in such au aw
ful crisis as this is—it is a terrible re
ponsibility, but it has,been imposed
upon me without my seeking, and 1
trust Providence has a wise purpose
for mo to fulfill by appointiug uie to
this charge, which is almost too mach
for a weak mortal to hold."
General Graut has several times,
since the opening of the present cam
paign, urged the President to visit
him at his hoadquarters iu the field,
but he has not uutil now had time to
do so. llo will, probably, ba absent
from Washington for over a week.—

Under the management of these able

Tha Government has decreed the
doom of Slavery, bccause Slavery
conspired tho downfall of the Govern

has attacked the evil at its roots. The

of the House, whereby tho Pugitive

is the last, or crowning act of their

or the notes of National Hauls, adding tlftv per ceut. for

Exempt from MtuiU-tpal or State Taxation,
their value Is increased from one to three per cent, per
annum, according to the rate of Ux levies to various
parts of the country.
At thu prcM'tii rate of premium on pold they pay

It is believed that no Korerttles offer RO great Induce
mentt to lendorH as the various descriptions of V. S.
Hoods. In all other forms of indebtedness, the faith or
ability of private |artli« or stock companies or separate
cemmunities only is pledged for payment, while for the
d"bts of the I'nited Ptatns the whole pro|ierty of tho
country Is holdcn to secure tho payment of butli princi
pal and interest in coin.
These Bonds may bo subscribed for In sums from $50
up to any magnitude, ou tlio same terms, and are thus
mad» equally available to the smalloM Under and the
largest capitalist. They can be converted into money at
any moment, and the bolder will have the benefit of the
interest.
It may be useful to state In this connection that the
'Uil Fumlud Ivbtof the I'nited States on which interest
is payable in gold, on the 3d day of March, 1XM. was
»TRS ,«05,»n0. The interest on this debt for the coming
fiscal year will be M5,«37,1'26, while the customs revc
nue In gold for the current fiscal year, cndlnp June 300,,
1864, has been HO far at the rate of over $100,000,000
per annum.
It will lie seen that even the present gold revenues of
the Government are largely In excess of tbe wants of the
Treasury for the |«yment of gold interest, while the re
cent increase ofthe tariff will doubtless raise the annual
receipts from customs on tho Bame amount ol importa
tions, to $150,000,000 per annum.
