gumxo or THE PIRATE CRUISE* ALASAIA.
By the arrival of the Arabia at New
York we have intelligence of the sink
ing of the rebel cruiser Alabama, off
Cherbourg, by the U. S. steam-sloop
Kearsarge. The Alabama lost, 25
men killed and wounded, and 68 cap
tured. Capt. Semmes, the Command
er of the Alabama, and 40 officers and
men, were picked up by the English
yacht Deerhonud and escaped.
Tho Navy Departamt has rec«»v
ed the following
OFFICIAL ACCOUNT.
U. S. 8SA»R KKARAAKUK, Jane 10,1M4.
To Tim. iuUoti Wells. Secretary of the Xtey
SIK
1 have the honor to inform tho
Navy Department that the day subse
quent to the arrival of the Kearsarge
at Ibis port, ou the 14th inst., 1 receiv
ed a note from Capt. Semines, begging
that the Kearsarge would not depart
as he intended to light her and would
not delay her but a day or two. Ac
cording to this notice tho Alabama
left the port of Cherbourg this morn
ing at about 0:30 o'clock. At 10:20
in the afternoon we discovered her
steaming towards us. Fearing the
question of jurisdiction might arise,
we steamed to sea until a distance of
six or seven miles was obtaiucd from
the Cherbourg breakwater, when we
rounded to and commenced steering
for the Alabama. As we approached
her within about 1,200 yards, she
opened fire, wo receiving two or three
broadsides before a shot was returned.
The action contiuued, the respective
steamers making a circle rouud and
round at a distance of about nine hun
dred yards from each other. At the
expiration of an hour, the Alabama
struck, going down in about twenty
minutes afterwards, aud carrying ma
ny persons with Iter. It affords me
great gratification to announce that
all did their duty, exhibiting much
that gave promise at the outset of
final victory.
1 have the honor to be, most resptct
fully, your obediant servant,
JOHN A. WINSI-OW,
Capt U.
S. steamer Kearsargp.
The New York Times' correspond
ent says: Notwithstanding reports
sometime since that the Alabama was
so worn out that she would have to
be abandoned, and would never go on
the ocean again, she made the trip
from the east to Cherbourg in such a
short time that she was thought to be
the Florida, and it was so telegraphed
on her arrival. Captain VVinslow,
with the Kearsarge, then in Holland,
was immediately seut for by Mr. Day
ton. He arrived in time.
By the protest of Mr. Davton, the
French authorities were obliged to
order the Alabama out of port.
Seuimes put the best face on the mat
ter, though it is evident he did not
l:ke to face a war ship. He seut word
to Commander Winslow that he in
tended to drive him off, aud Winslow
jeplied, Let him try it." The fight
wag so short and decisive that one
would have thought the Alabama had
changed places with one of her un
manned merchantmen victims. It is
not true that tho Alabama at any time
attempted to board the Kearsarge.
Whcu t'.ie Alabama was disabled iu
her machinery, the Kearsarge was
run up close to hor and poured a de
structive converging broadside, which
tore away a whole section of the Ala
bama's side at the water line, aud let
water through in cascades. The Ala
bama then turned tail and made for
the shore. Commander Wiuslow hoist
ed his flag of victory and pursued.
Finding that the Alabama was sink
ing, he lowered his boats to pick up
the crew.
No one was killsc) board ti»
i Kearsarge, and only three of the crew
were slightly wounded. The vessel
was very little injured.
Mr. Dayton informed Commander
Wiuslow that the prisoners could not
be paroled, but might be transferred
to the St. Louis when she arrived, and
conveyed to the United States.
Commander Winslow claims Capt.
Semines and others takeu to South
ampton, as his prisouers. lie had am
ple means to pick them up, but the
English yacbt actually stole tbe»#
luting a clear case of intervention.
A correspondent of the London
Times, under date of Southampton,
Monday, June 20th, Writes
The Alabama ltd Cherbourg har
bor about 10 o'clock on Sunday morn
ing, and the Kearsarge was then
several miles out to seaward, with her
steam up, ready for action. The
French plated ship-of-war Conronne
followed the Alabama out of harbor,
and stopped when the vessels wero a
league off the coast, her object being
to see that there was no violation of
the law of nations by any fight taking
placc within the legal distanco from
land. The combat took place about
nine miles from Cherbourg. Below is
and extract from the log kept on board
the Deerhound
Sunday, Junt W,
The London Daily New$ charges
that the Deerhound acted as a sort of
tender to the Alabama, and that Capt.
Winslow would have secured the
whole of the officers and crew of the
Alabama had he not placed too much
coufideuce in the honor of the owner
of the yacht. That he considered
Capt. Semmes and others who escaped
as bound in honor to give themselves
up, and that he did not pursue aud
fire upon the Deerhound because he
did uot believe any one carrying the
flag of the Royal Yacht squadron
would act so dishonorably. The daily
News also publishes a letter from Mr.
Stoddard, Master of the Kearsarge,
complaiuing that the Deerhouud was
the consort of the Alabama. Mr.
Stoddard says that when he saw the
Deerhouud making off with part of the
Alabama's crew, bo reported the fact
to Capt. Winslow. The answer was—
impossible the yacht was simply
cruising around no commauder could
be guilty of such conduct, whcu ho
had been requested, and permitted in
the cause of humanity, to save the
lives of the men, to run off with them.
Capt. Semmes declined an invitation
to a public dinner at Southampton.
Ho is said to have gone to Paris to
report to the Confederate Commission
er there.
Three of tht Alabama's officers with
Bix of tho crew had arrived at Cher
bourg in a French pilot-boat. Several
men had also bees landed by the Brit*
ish ship Acteon.
A letter in the Paris Patrie states
that Capt. Semines has auuouuccd that
os the
16th
ffby a pre-arranged plan, thus const!-j embark on ft new Alabama, whfch
The English steam yacht Dcerhound,
belonging to Mr. John Lancaster of
llindley Hall, Wigan, Lancashire, ar
rived here last night and landed Capt.
Semmes (commander of the late Con
federate steamer Alabama), thirteen
officers and twenty-six men, whom she
rescued from drowning after the action
off Cherbourg yesterday which result
ed in the destruction of the world-re
nowned Alabama. The Deerhound is
a yacht of 190 tuus and 70-horsepow
er, and her owner is a member of the The
Hoynl Yacht Squadron at Cowes, and
the Royal Mersey CI nix By a some
what singular coincidence, she was
built bv Messrs. Laird & son of Birk
enhead, and proof of her ileetness is fur
nished by tho fact that she steamed
home from the scene of action yester
day at the rate of 13 nots an hour.
On arriving at Cherbourg, at 10
o'clock on Saturday night, by railway
from Caen, Mr. Lancaster was inform
ed by the captiin of his yacht, which
was lying in harbor awaiting his ar
rival, that it was reported that the
Alabama and Kearsarge were going
out to fight cach other iu the morn
ing. Mr. Lancaster, whose wife,
niece, and family were also on board
his yacht, at oncc determined to go
out in tho morning aud see the com
bat.
9 JLlL—Got up
steam and proceeded out of Cherbnrgf
harbor. 10:$0.—Observed tho Ala
batna steaming out of tlio harboi*
toward the Federal Steamer Kear
sarge. 11:10—The Alabama com
menced firing with her starboard bat
tery, the distance between the contend
ing vessels being about one mile. The
Kearsarge immediately replied with
her starboard guns a very sharp,
spirited firing was then kept up, shot
sometimes being varied by shells. Iu
maneuvering both vessels made spven
complete circles at a distance of from
a quarter to half a mile. At 12 a
slight intermission was observed in
the Alabama's firing, the Alabama
making head sail, and shafting her
course toward the land, distant about
nine miles. At 12:30 observed the
Alabama to bo disabled aud in a sink
ing state. We immediately made
toward her, and on passing the Kear
sarge were requested to assist in sav
ing tho Alabama's crcw. At \?:50,
when within a distance of 200 yards,
the Alabama sank. We then lowered
our two boats, and, with the assist
ance of the Alabama's whaleboat and
dingy, succecded iu saving ubout 40
men, including Capt. Semmes and 13
officers. At 1 P. M. WC steered for
Southampton.
The Southampton correspondent of
the London Daily Ncirs says that Mr.
Lancaster, of the English yacht, be
ing requested by the commander of
the Kearsarge to save from drowning
the Alabama's men in tho water, he
proceeded to do ao. Passing near one
of the men almost exhausted, ono of
tho men in the boat cricd out "That's
Semmes and the drowning man re
sponded, I am the Captain, save me,
I cannot keep np any longer." lie
was dragged in, when he said, "For
Clod's sake, don't put me on board (be
Kearsarge, but put me on board your
yacht." This was promised, and
Semmes was stowed away in the bot
tom of the boat and covcrcd with a
sail, to conceal him from those iu the
Kcarsarge's boats, who were evidently
anxiously searching for him. lie was
theu taken to the yacht and placed be
low. Mr. Lancaster soon after has
tened away, fearful that he would be
overhauled and his vessel searched.
Thus was Semmes saved from the gal
lows by a contemptible trick played
by a friendly Englishman.
uf August, he will again
will, on that date, be completed. The
seamen of the old Alabama will con
tinue to receive pay, and form part of
tho crew of the new cruiser. Rumor
points to the steamer Rappahannock,
the cx-British war vessel, which stole
away from Sherrness to Calais.
The Paris correspondent of the
Commercial says that Capt. Winslow
still claims Semmes as his prisoner,
and will write to him to deliver him
self up, making it a personal question
between officer and officer. Winslow
will send the other ofiicers home.
men are released on parole to
nevsr fight against the United States.
Semmes was astonished to find his
ship used up so soon, and cursed not
a little at the worthlessness of English
guns and English ships.
The thunders of the Kearsargc's
guns will startle new echoes in Eu
rope, and open a new chapter iu our
foreign relations which will require
firmness and prudence, and it will be
prudent this time to be firm. The act
of the Deerhound's yachting party in
securing Semmes will be promptly
brought into diplomacy, and our Brit
ish cousins must disavow it. The
only pity is that a well directed shot
from the Kearsarge did not sink the
Deerhound and all tho hands on her,
British as well as rebel, including
Semmes. The arrangement was made
at Cherbourg with the Captain of the
yacht Deerhound to go out and wit
ness the fight, and rescue Semmes if
he were defeated.
The Navy Department is in ecstacy
over the news of the destruction of
the Alabama. They have hung out
their big flag, made Captain Winslow
a Commodore, held a half holiday, and
been in a general state of exultation.
The value of the Alabama is said to
be half a million of dollars. This
amount, according to custom in such
cases, will be given to the officers and
crew of the conquering vessel.
Invasion of Maryland.
A formidable rebel raid has been made into
Maryland, prodncing picat excitement among
the inhabitants, and lively times Among the
military and Government officials. The relel
force has been variously estimated at from
10,000 to o0,000. There was a battle between
z rebel force and a small force of L'nion caval
ry and artillery, near Frederick City, Md., re
sulting in dislodging and driving the enemy,
l'nion reinforcements are rapidly arriving, aud
it is probable that thf rebels will be kept out
of Ptnusvlvauia, at all events. Gen. Lew.
Wallace, commanding that department, has
his headquarters at Frederick City, and feels
confident of his ability to bold that place.
The raid into Maryland seems to be clothcd
with mystery. Washington dispatches say
they have uo authentic information there of
the presence of a large rebel force in Mary
land. The indications are, however, that Lee
has dispatched a large portion of his army
northward, for the purpose of compelling
Grant to retreat arid protect Pennsylvania.
But it will not be MKvoroful- A rebel brigade
is reported to have token Ilagerstown, Md.
The rebels in Harper's Kerry Lave destroyed
all the railroad property there. Tho telegraph
and ticket offices were also burned, and a large
quantity of furugc.
The railroad is still unobstructed as far as
Sandy Ilook, opposite Harper's Ferry. It is
believed there was only a small rebel force on
the Virginia shore, opposite the Point of Rocks.
The rebels can be seeu towards Sharpsburg,
driving off cattle and horses, and plundering
the fanners iu the valley.
Sigel has occupied Maryland Heights. Hun
ter's forces are reported to have joined those
of Sigel, and a vigorous campaign against the
raiders is about commencing.
A dispatch dated Frederick, Md., July 8th,
says The rebels retreated four miles from
their position of yestenlay, on the rood to
Bootiesboro and Hagerstown. Gen. Wallace
and stuff aro actively engaged. Everything
look* well. Frederick is iu no danger.
A disjiatch from Harper's Ferry, July 8th,
announces the evacuation of that plate by the
rebels, and says our troops again hold It. The
old flag Huats once more over the towa.
ih. War in Virginia.
A corresjtondeiit, writing from Petcrsbug,
•ays The indications are that an active
movement on a large scale will not be at
tempted for a week or two at least. The fiatl
of Petersburg is a question of time. Thai
time must elapoe before it can be takeu.
Grant is conducting a siege, such a siege aa
culminated so gloriously at Vicksburg. But
that job wits far moie serious than this. What
he has made up his mind to d, he will do,
and will not be hastened into it precipitately,
and chamtt a failure siege. Guns enough to
sweep Petersburg from the face of the earth,
have already been mounted still Grant may
strike like lightning, and with fatal etfect
somewhere else. His ways are devious and
past finding out."
Movements are now under way which will
largely re-enforce Grant's army by veteran
troops from points of less note and importance
than Richmond. It is thought that General
Canby's troops from New Orleans will soon
make their appearance on the James river in
stead of stopping at Mobile and it is under*
stood that nothing that the lebcls can do
by way of the Hhanandoah valley will induce
Grant to send any poitiou of bis army to the
defence of Washington.
In a recent artillery dual, after two boors
cannonading, the rebel batteries were com
pletely silenced and tho rebels driven from
their place. At three p. the enemy open
ed again aud soon the enemy's works were
enveloped in one continuous red cloud of dust
by our shells. The rebel gunnera could be
seen running to the rear for places of safety.
After two hours Oghting every rebel battery
was silenced. Our batteries have been placed
with great skill aud care, so that at any mo
ment they can be concentrated ou any point.
Petersburg is now covered by over 100 of our
guns, and when Grant gives orders its destruc
tion will be but the work of a taw hours.
A heavy thunder-storm passed over
this part of Iowa on Wednesday eve
ning of last week, accompanied by a
strong wind which some of the time
amounted almost to a tornado. Its
course was from north-west to south
east. Fences were blown down in
many places, aud in some instances
buildings were unroofed or over
thrown. Corn aud other cropq were
prostrated, but none is believed to be
seripusly injured.

Battle in Arkansas.
We learn from Memphis papers of
the 2d inst. that as soon as Gen. Steele
heard of Shelby's movement near the
mouth of White river, he sent forward
the 138tli Illinois, the 3d Missouri, 9th
Iowa and 3d Regular cavalry, under
command of Gen. Carr. This force
confronted the enemy on the 27th ult.
between Sheadon and St. Charles, and
a fight ensued, resulting in the capture
of 200 prisoners and the guns of the
recently captured gunboat Queen City
and four mountain howitzers. Our loss
in killed and wounded was less than
200, while the rebel loss was full 500
including 200 prisoners. Mamiaduke
and Shelby are said to be retreating.
The White river is now open to boats
running under a convoy. The 9th Iowa
cavalry contains a Company recruited
in this vieinitv.
During the thunder-storm on Wednes
day evening of last week, two little
children, twin sons of Mr. Galbraith of
Floyd, who were less than three years
old, were discovered to be absent from
the house. Search was instituted, but
the little ones were not found until the
next morning. They had strayed off
upon the prairie about six miles, and
when discovered were lying upon a
gopher mound, clasped in each other's
arms and fast asleep. No harm had
befallen them, but the anxious mother
was nearly distracted until they were
restored to her.
Calls have been issued for 5,000

INCIDENT AT CLEVELAND.
When the platform was under con
sideration in the Convention, the RPT.
Henry T. Cheever (brother of the Rev.
Dr. Cheever of New York) moved to
amend the first resolution by inserting
tho words, with God's blessing," so
that it should read as follows Be
solved, That, icith Cud's blessing, the
Federal Union must aud shall be pre-j
served." The correspondent of The
llerald tells us what was the fate of
this motion
Mr. Checver's motion caused quito
a sensation among the Germans, many
of whom wero inlidels bnt Mr. Coch-j
rane promptly put the question, as
follows All those in favor of amend-1
ing the resolution by the insertion of
'God's blessing' will say 'aye,' all
oppoecd no.'
1
God's blessing' is lost"
said Cochrane. The suddenness with
which it was put, and several circum
stances connected, caused quite a sen
sation. The moment that quiet was
restored the Germaus could be heard
whispering to cach other, Dash ish de
man,' Dash ish de man.' Vat's dat
he shays 'boat God's blessiug Dish
ish de man.' From that moment it
was impossible to get tho Germans to
think ot' any other person for Vice
President but Gen. Cochrane, and
when his name was proposed they
rushed it through with a will, all ow
ing to that one little circumstance,
which only shows how a little thing
decidcs a man's fata it political cam
paigns."
GIN. HOOKER ALIVE AND NOT WOUND
tn.—The report sent "from Nash
ville, that Gen. Hooker was wounded
in the repulse at Kcnesaw Mountain,
and the report of his death subsequent
ly published in the Nashville Union
prove to have been iucorrect. The
Nashvilie Union of July 1st announ
ces by authority that Gen. Hooker
was not even wounded, nnd is all
right." It was Brig. Gen. Harkcr
who was wouudad aud aftervards
died.

of the largest burdeu may find refuge
from storms, is formed by the world
famous break-water, constructed at a
cost of $14,000,000, aad noarljr 10
years in building.
Goo. Harkcr, of Sherman'* com
mand, who was recently mortally
wounded, was born iu New Jersey, in
1837, and graduated at West Point iu
1858. He was an able aud brave offi
cer, and his death was the result of
his fearless daring in rushing up to
charge tho rebel wurka at the bead of
bis command.
The conscription bill, as passed by
both houses of Congress on Saturday,

The crops throughout the State

Help thQ Country,
From all parts of the State we have
most checring reports of tho growing
crops. Everywhere there is abund
ant promise of well flilled granaries
and overflowing bins, when the har
vest home is heralded o'er prairie
and grove of our own richly blcsted
Iowa. Despite tho largo ami really
exhaustive drain of much needed la
bor from our State, tho seed soon to
yield waving acres of golden grain
haa been sown over an area even more
extensivo than in previous seasons.
The mothers and daughters have lit
erally taken hold of the plow and
have scorned to look backward. Few
of our readers who reside in towns
and cities have any conception of the
extant of this more than Spartan devo
tion to tho cause of our imperilled Un
ion, by which hundreds of noblo Iowa
women have been prompted to the
eager performance of duties before
deemed impossible lo cultivated and
refined females. All over our State
tho fields huvo bccu plowed, harrow
ed, sowed and planted by women who
never befoia dreamed that they could
perform such tasks. All this, too, and
more, willingly—gladly—because of
the interest in the great cause in behalf
of which the absent husband, father,
sou or brother is earnestly battling.
It is well to chronicle those facts and
rejoice over them as hope-inspiring
evidences of tho real patriotism of the
people. But they teach other lessons
still more worth the heeding. If labor
be thus scarce in seed-time, what will
it be in harvest? And how shall the
rich fruit of the cro long blossoming
wheat fields be gathered in if the la
borers bo thus few The answer
must be given from the cities and
towns of Iowa. During the harvest
season let all work, not absolutely es
sential to be performed, be suspended
in all these and let mechanics aud la
borers, students and clerks, hasten to
tho harvest fields and there" bind
among tho sheaves." Time was in
the early history of our now large
towns, as wo well remember, when
the harvest month saw books and
counters, shop and forge, deserted for
the sickle and wheat field. That time
should return now without fail. The
country has helped the nation and is
still helping. The city must now
help the country. Send forth the
laborer* into the harvest.*—^Davenport
Gazette.
Closing of the Land Offices.
The recent action of the Depart
ment at Washington in withdrawing
all the public land iu this State from
market, will be a severe blow to the
prosperity of the Northwestern part
of the State. At no time within tie
last seven years has there been half
the immigration into Northwestern
Iowa, that has been crowding in for
the two months past. Hundreds ot
the best class of settlers are flocking
to the I.and Office nnd searching the
prairies for homesteads, aud thousands
more are preparing lo comc after har
vest. It is but just becoming gener
ally known that there arc hundreds
of thousands of acres of as good land
as there is on this continent still sub
ject to be taken as Homesteads iu this
aud the Sioux City Laud District. As
the fact has become known, great
preparations are being made at the
East to securo these valuablo lands
under the liberal provisions of the
Homestead Act. Money boiug plenty,
thousands are enabled to come West
that have not heretofore had tho means.
There would undoubtedly have been
added from five to eight thousand to
tlio population of this Congressional
District within the preseut year. But
the order comys from Washington
shutting up all of these lands for an
indefinite time, nullifying the Home
stead Law, and driving thousands of
the best class of sottles who desire to
make their homes in Iowa, to the dis
tant Territories of away up North in
to the wilds of Minnesota. Cannot
our Members of Congress see that this
order, so detrimental to the prosperi
ty of ouf State is revoked, so fur as it
applies to the even sections of land,
about which there is no dispute?—Fort
Dodge. Republican,

A species of grubs and bugs—new
in this region—have lately been ob
served in several potato patches in
this vicinity, aud are proving very de
structive wherever they tarry. The
bugs are striped and somewhat resem
ble the species which uttack vines,
only they ure several times larger.
The grubs grow to about half an inch
in length and are of a reddish c-Jor.
They are voracious feeders and grow
to be very fat and plump. They use
up potato vines wherever they appear.
The bug is supposed to be the illustri
ous projenitor of the grub. We have
heard of no remedy except that of
brushing them off, and killing them.
Several parts of Illinois are also in
fested with them.—Hamilton Freeman.
