TIIETERRITORIAL CONVENTION
TLc Convention was called to order by
E. 13. Taylor, Chairman ef Territorial
Ccramittee. .
After the U3ual prMirninnries, D. II.
VTfceeler wz. elected permanent Chair-
mta and L. J. Abbott, of Douglas, Stc
retary. The resolutions adopted we give in an
other, column.
Tho various candidates, Messrs. Tip
ton, Luthbauh, Hitchcock, Paddock,
Marquette, Irish & TafTe, were all called
out to define their position. Hon. S. G.
Daily was also called out, but told them
plainly tbat he was not a candidate; that
if he tad been a candidate, he should
have worked to secure the nomination
Throughout the Convention the utmost
good feeling and harmony prevailed.
After the nomination all the candidates
present again addressed the Convention,
most heartily endorsing the nominee.
The Copperhead meeting, at Spring
field, III., on the 17th, was largely attend
d by citizens of that State, and promi
nent Copperheads from other sections, to
ouch so that its acts plainly indicate the
Copperhead-Dimoc ratio policy. Many
of them were armed, and net a fan at
tended in full Confederate uniform. They
came with white flags in their hands and
on their horses heads and fire-arns con
cealed in their wagons. Some of their
mottoes were : 'Blessed are the peace
mikec," ''State sovereignties national
union," "War is disunion, final, and in
evitable," "The Union as it was, lhe
Constitution as it is," "Abolition the
cause of the war," "Lincoln inaugurat
ed the reign of terror." On one large
banner waa the picture of a white man
with the Unittd States flag in one hand
and standing on the body of a prostrate
negro with one foot on his throat, on a
scroll at the right of the white man was
this rnottce: "The Constitution and
White Man's Rights." Wm. C. Corry,
cf Cincinnati, a violent Copperhead, was
cheered fcr the remark that "the South
was right a:.d we (the North) were
wrong." Christian Kntben, of St. Louis,
was "ia favcr of immediate ptace on any
terms."
Are our Territorial Ccpperhead-D?m
ccracy prepared to join hands with their
Illinois brethren f and w ill they step into
the ranks, bearing a white flair in their
hands and two revolvers and a rowie
knife under their coat tails, and march
to the tune of Dixie? Verily, depravity
is an index of humanity, and we expect
they will.
Ben. Wade, of Ohio, and H. Winter
Davis, of Md., have entered a protest
against the President's veto proclamation
ofJuly Sih. The effect may partially be
seep by the following resolution passed
by a large meeting of Wade'a constitu
ents, held in Ashtabula county, Ohio :
"Resolved, That we have seen with
deep regret the recent protest of Hon.
B. F. Wade and Henry Winter Davis
against the President's veto proclamation
of July 8th, and we sincerely deplore

McCOOK'S RAID.
Marietta Ga., Aug 4th, 1S64.
1Mb. Edito. Many and conflicting
are the rumors and conjectures in regard
to this raid. I will now proceed to give
you the general details as correct as I
can. For be it known that it is hard for
any two persons to give the same account
of the affair, unless one or both are con
nected with affairs at headquarters.
When we returned from Rousseacs'
Raid the supposition was that we would
get to rest a week or so. But we found
our fond hopes of a few nights repose
soon blasted. We had moved out on the
Chatahootchee River to picket the stream,
and were just getting fixed np to enjoy
our rest iwhen on the second day orders
came to join Genl Mc Cook's command.
After the junction the command consisted
of McCook's, the 1st Cavalry Division,
our Division (Rausseaus' old Alabama
Roidersccmmanded by Col. Harruonof
the' 8th Ind. Cavalry, and twp pieces of
Artillery, the whole force amounting to
near five thousend men, air under com-
manJ of Brig. Gen. McCook.
We crosed the Chatahoothee ten miles
below Campbellton on a pontoun bridge
a pontoon train accompamng us to the
river, one Regiment the 9th Ohio Caval
ry, was left there to escort the train back
to this place. Marched directly, to the
Atlanta and West Point R. R. cutting
it, by tearing up and burning the cross-
ties, and rails, for several miles, and bur
ning considerable Government store at
Palmetto, 25 miles south-west of Atlan
ta. We then marched direct to the Ma
con and Atlanta R. R. striking it at a
point 25 miles south of Atlanta, destroy
ing about five miles of it, being the main
supply route for the rebel army. Be
tween the two roads we captured part of
one Regiment, the 45th Alabama Caval
ry, they making no resistance, also, about
three hundred Army waggons, loaded
with rations, forage, oflicers traps &c.
which were burned, and the mules at
tached used to mount our boy's whose
horses were about played out. So far
so good.
Our courst was then changed to a
south-west direction, to recross the river
at a point about 30 miles north of West
Point. Lett the rail road in the evening
marched all night through dismal swauips
and iy rcads.arrived at Newman about 9
next morning and as our advance enter
ed the town the whistle of the Locomo
tive could be heard, bringing ia a train
of cars loaded with troops to cut off our
retreat lo the river, skirmishing com
menced, and we lost several killed and
wounded, the main column was ordered
to go around the town, while one brigade
was left in front of the town to skirmish
while the column was going around, and
then bring up the rear. Here is where
the fatal mistake was made by the com
roander, while we were going around the
town 15 miles, the rebel infantry march
ed across 3 miles and. got ia our front
and between us and the river. Knowing
the exact road we wonld Tiara to march
I to get to th river, and their cavalry fol
lowing up ia cur rear. It is the gener
al epinicn of officers and men that-Tiad
the commander ordered a charge as soon
as we entered Newmaa "and showed
the rebels that we were determinsd to
go through in spite cf then, they would
cot have been so anxious. to cut us off
from escape, and we would havo got
through with one fourth, the loss that we
did. '
Whea we found that they were in our
front, rear and each flank it was evident
we would have -to fight. . Ski rmishing
was going on in the rear, the SihTnd.
and 4ihTen.. were deployed as skir
mishers, and held th.e rebels in check
six companies of the 5th Iowa prepared
for a charge through an open 'cornfield,
the charge was ordered and the boys
went in von their nerve" and routed the
rebel cavalry, compelling them to fall
back rather hastily. During this time
the 2d Ky., and a detachment of the 5th
Iowa who were on the advance passed
through before the rebels closed in on
our front, and moved on, crossed the
river and we supposed them captured,
but found them here when we arrived.
After they passed through," the rebels
closed in and, the fight commenced ia
good earnest, charge after charge was
made by cur troops and they were each
time compelled to fall back to the crest
of a hill where our artillery was posted,
with more or less loss at every charge
by being flanked by the, rebels, several
Regiments were dismounted and sent out
as skirmishers while our artillery shelled
the woods beyond, the fight continued in
this way for some time, the rebels almost
ceased firing and it was supposed that
they had fell back or were preparing to
flank us. By some mismanagement our
skirmishers had been withdrawn leaving
our Artillery entirely exposed to a charge
from the enemy. Silence reip;ned for a
few minutes and all supposed that the
fight was over. But not so. In front of
the Artillery jvas an open field of about
one hundred yards in width, beyond this
was small timber with a thick growth of
underbrush, from this the rebel infantry
poured fourth with their peculiar "yell,"
on a charge to capture our Artillery:
On they came and had got within
about fifty yards of the gun3 before our
boys could dismount to meet the charge
and save the guns. The rebels were re
pulsed with heavy loss without gaining
their point. The gunners worked their
pieces with a will distributing canister
and shell through the ranks of the enemy
which caused them to,, fall back to the
cover of the woods io a hurry. Our
skirmishers moved on through the woods
driving the rebels before them, after aj
short time the firing again slacked. On
the right of the hill, where the guns
wgre posted, was an open field down the
side of the hill, and up the opposite shore
extended another field filled with corn
about six feet high, in the first mention
ed field on the hill side was posted the
horses of the skirmishers, held by every
fourth man. A heavy force of the reb
els soon made their appearance in tfce
corn field mentioned to flank us and
cause a stampede amcng the ltade horses
and try to gain possession of the guns,
from that quarter. They ope'ned the
fire on the Artillery,' the leade horses,
and our skirmisher.', on the right flank-
very strong. The men with the Ieao
horses'f ell back to a better position behind
a hill in the rear with the loss of several
horses shot and two men wounded, one
from cur Co. J. C. Wilson of Iowa in knee.
Our Co. which was skirmishing on tne
right flank, and had to withstand the fire
of the rebels in our front and on the right
flank, and the 4th Tenn. cavalry who
were posted up by the guns, and many
of whom were pcuring a murderous fixe
into our rear, supposing us to be the reb
els, in spite of our endeavors to convince
them we were friends by every means in
our power. Had our boys not been posted
behind the fence our loss would have
undoubtedly been very heavy. As it was
we had one man, John Knot of Iowa,
mortally wounded, ball entering the
right breast. Another David S. Carbin
of Nebraska City badly wounded, ball
entering below the right cheek boue and
coming out under the ear on the same
side, Surgeon pronounced the wound not
dangerous, sevtral others were slightly
wouuded.
After the Artillery had shelled the
cornfield and woods beyond, and ' our
skirmishers had kept up an unceasing fire
upon them, they fell out of range.
When they pushed forward a short dis
tance, they would have captured our en
tire company. But after being under
such heavy fire, from every side, and
running such narrow risks of being cap
tured,! think we got ofF.very fortunate
ly.' What I have mentioned is all the
loss our Co. sustained during the fight.
The firing soon ceased altogether, and
the' fight was over.
" During the fight Col. Brownlow with
two Regiments forced his way through
the rebel lines somewhere on the left,
and, we heard no more of him until we
arrived here. We heard that he came in
a day or so before us with fifteen men
almost naked, the rest of his command
being scattered ia the woods oa this side
of the river.
After the fight preperations were made
for getting out of there, for it was evi
dent that the rebels were closing in all
r.---7- a M
around us. The Artillery was spiked,
canons and gun carriages deraraolished,
so as to raaka them caservicabls to the
enemv. The tack mules, and their
f
packs, about two hundred ia number, tea
ambulaaces filled with sick and wounded.
all" cur dead and wounded, we had in the
fight, several surgeons and nurses; be
sides 12 hundred rebel prisoners we had
captured during the trip, had to all be
left, to fall into the bands of the enemy.
The command then moved out through
a cornfield in the rear, and entered a
main road leading to the river. The
fifstTegiment passed into the road with
out any molestation, but when our regi
ment entered the road the enemy opeoed
a heavy fire on us from the right, where
they were concealed behind trees, and
were evidently trying to cut us ofT from
escaptrin that direction, I heard after
ward that some of the regiment behind
us had to charge the rebels, in order to
get into the road, the . enemy appearing
determined lo cut off and capture part
of our command, but by the loss of one
or two men and several horses all that
escaped the fight, got through. Then
commenced almost a general stampede,
there only being two or three regi
ments, that appeared t$ have any organ
ization Theyfwere the 8th Ind., and the
5th Iowa, the rest were marching along
promisciously like a drove of cattle. No
great excitement seemed to prevade the
crowd, only a general tendancy to puih
onward, frequently the word would come
up from the rear. "Forward," because
of the presure of the rebels upon that
quarter. We marched at a fast pace all
evening and part of the night, and ar
rived at the river nbout 2 o'clock in the
morning. Baricades of rails were built
to prevent a charge by the enemy. And
the work of crossing the river immedi
ately commenced. A sunken fiat boat
was raised and with this the work of
crossing the command commenced. By
S o'clock the 8th Ind., had all their hor
ses and men across, besides many others
who by the aid of rafts-and two skiffs
ferried over their arms and saddles, and
swam their horses and mules. About
one half of the horses and about the same
number of men were over when the reb
els opened on our rear. When it became
evident that the men wuld, havo to be
ferried over and the horses left, which
was immediately 'done, their saddles
were thrown in the river, as the last boat
lead reached this shore the rebels char
ged down the bank and fired on our men,
killing and wounding several.
The march then commenced toward our
lines with about one thousand men moun
ted and about the same number cn foot, I
after we had marched about 15 miles, a
great many 'of the foot men began to
gire out, and orders were given for all
of them &d take to the woods and make
their way through the best they could,
after three days marching after we left
the river, those mounted reached this
post, where we hope to enjoy a little rest
before we start on another rail.
OUR LOSS.
Is hard to asertain at present. We
lost on the other side of the river, in the
fight and all subsequent skirmishes, about
two hundred killed and wounded, (I say
'about" for we have do definite means
of assertaining .there being no official re
port out yet.) acd abcut twelve hundred
taken prisoners. After ' we left the rail
road and started toward the river the en
emy cutoff and captured, from the rear
oe Regiment the 4th ltd. which I for
got to mention in its proper place in
this article. Besides this while in the
fiht, at every advance of our forces the
enemy fell back directly in the front of
the advancing pariy, threw out flankers
and by this means succeeded-in capturing
some of every party that advanced on
them. They evidently had an able com
mander. The mode which I have men
tioned, appeard to be "hh way" of fight
ing, and it was a good way, for every
move we made to advance on them they
were gradually weakening "us. What
their loss or how much of a force they
had engaged, we had no means of asser
tiining. They were evidently vastly su
periorto us in numbers. Our regiment lost
en the other side of the river about fifty
men in killed wounded and missing, and
left two hundred oathis side in the woods,
not one of whom has come in, yet. Our
Co. left on the other side of the river
the three men I have mentioned wounded
and one man, Win. McFarland of Fall
City.volunteered to remain and take care
ef them, and twenty-two in the woods
on this side, I will give the names of
those from Nemahi Co. who are in the
brush Serg.t. Simpson W. Hill, and Capt.
J W.Hichardson, the rest of the Nemaha
boys are all well, and safe excepting the
fatigue of the hard march. It is hard to
tell whether any that were left en this side
will come in, the chances are against
'.hem. Among our loss in the fight was
Col. Harrison, commander of our division
who is either killed, wounded or a priso
ner, his loss is lamented by all his com
mand; he was a brave, and good com
mander, and had his advice been taken
by the General we would have got off
with much less loss. Col. Br'ownlows com
mand are all scattered through the coun
try. Near all of the Sth Iowa, and 4th
Tennesset are missing. Our regiment
came through with about 100 men out of
300, the 8th Ind. is the only Regt. that
came through with but littla loss. Whea
the facts are all ascertained I think our
loss will not fall short cf two thousand
out of fire. . We also lost two pjeces cf
artillery, all lha arms cf tho msn who
were captured tea ambulances, and about
as many horses andmule3 as there are
mea missing ia 11.
... THE riCHT.
t' It fwas ad independent fight, thoso
of the Brigade and Regimental comman
ders who wanted to fight "pitched in"
with their commands, and others whose
inclination was the other way fell back
to the rear. Many cf th3 men went
in" on their own responsibility, here
true 'courage and sneaking cowardice
was well displayed. Many were the
"shoulder-straps" who skulked to the
rear, many of them stood up nobly to the
work among them was CoL Harrison, Lt.
Col. Jones of the 8th Ind. and all the offi
cers of his regt., Maj. Baird, 5ih Iowa,
and all the officers and men of his regi
ment. Among them was Lt.W. T.Wil
hite, commanding Co. 'C" who led his
Co. into the thickest of the fight, without
orders and did not come out till it was
over. Maj. Stevens of the 4th Tennes
see and many others I did not know were
in the thickest of the fight.
Ges. McCook.
May do to couimaud infantry, but he
has not the energy and decision required
for a raider During the engagement
he hardly gave an oruer. He pays very
little attention to the welfare cf his men
and horses, never letting us know where
he was going to stop a while to feed,
therefore many of the horses went day's
without feed. It'is reported that he was
going to surrender the whole command
but thai the regimental ccmmindcrs re
fused and said they were going through,
many were the wishes uttered for Gen.
Rousseau or some other able commander,
to lead us.
While on the expedition we got no
regular slet-p, excepting the last night
or two, before we entered our lines.
When the column would hah the boys
would dismount, lie down and be asleep
in an instant, to be waked up and move
again in a few moments and finish their
nap in the saddle, which we got, so we
could do very well, only occasional some
one would tumble oil". Many of the
boys had to have their boots cut off their
feet, which were badly swollen from con
tinuous riding. It was an expedition of
niu'h Mifferiiig.
Hoping tbat all of our brave boys who
are in the brush may get through safe,
and that we may not have another raid
soon, but a little rest. I will close,
Yours &c.
