The Union party of Iowa met in Convention at 
l)es Moines on the 2Sth ult., and nominated the fol¬ 
lowing ticket for State Officers: For Governor — N. 
Baker, of Clinton. For Lieutenant Governor — Col¬ 
onel Dewey, of Henry Gounty. For Supreme Judge 
— Rufus Noble, of Clayton county. Mr. Baker was 
the last Democratic Governor of New Hampshire. 
He has been a resident of Iowa for several years, and 
is now Adjutant General of the State. The other 
two gentlemen on the ticket are Republicans. 
Thebe is a secret political society organized 
throughout, the South, called the Union League. 
There is, we understand, a lodge with about two 
hundred members in Montgomery, Alabama, who are 
sworn to stand by each other. This League is 
designed to counteract the designs of the Knights of 
the Golden Cross. It is especially formidable in 
North Carolina, and members were recently elected 
by it to the Federal Congress, many thousands of 
votes being cast. 
The politicians of Ohio united upon a ticket com¬ 
posed thus: Governor—David Tod, Democrat. Lieut. 
Governor—Benjamin Stanton. Republican. Superior 
Judge—Josiah Scott. Treasurer—G. V. Dorsey. Sec¬ 
retary of State—E. B. Cowan. Comptroller—Joseph 
H. Riley. Board of Public Works—John Torrence. 
There are three Republicans, three Democrats and 
one American. The ticket gives entire satisfaction. 
Naval Intelligence. 
The following United Stares men-of-war are now 
on their way home, or ordered home, to re-enforce

Africa. First rate ship. 
Corvette Portsmouth, 22 guns, from the coast of 
Africa. Good ship. 
Sloop-of-war Saratoga, 20 guns, from the coast of 
Africa. V very serviceable vessel. 
Sloop-of-war John Adams, 20 guns, from the East 
Indies. Not a valuable craft 
Storeship and transport Belief, from the coast of 
Africa. A strong and sound vessel. 
Steam corvette San Jacinto, 13 guns, from the 
coast of Africa. Efficient vessel. 
Steam gunboat Mohican, 6 guns, from the coast of 
Africa. A valuable craft for blockading Southern 
harbors. 
Steam gunboat Dacotah, 6 gnns, from the East 
Indies. A new ship. 
Steam gunboats Sumter and Mystic, 6 guns, from 
the coast of Africa. Both light draft vessels.

This will enable ns to '‘hermetically" seal every 
port which the President may wish to interdict. All 
the vessels named are in comparatively good repair, 
and need not lose any time after their arrival. 
The steamer Rescue left. Philadelphia on Sunday 
morning for service as a dispatch boat on the 
Potomac. 
Three gnnboats. now building in Philadelphia, are 
expected to be ready for launching in about two 
weeks. 
Orders have been received at the Brooklyn Navy 
Yard for the fitting out of the frigate Brandywine. 
This vessel is now laid up in ordinary in the Cob 
dock, and has been used at times for a practice ship, 
but during the winter season she has been stripped. 
It is said that the ship is very rotten, and will not 
pass inspection. This, however, is not tho case, for 
she is as sound as ever. She will be dug out of the 
mud ami put in order immediately. The Brandywine 
was built in Washington in 182i'>, and is of 1,726 tuns 
register, and rates fifty guns. In the navy she is 
known as “La Fayette's ship,” from the fact that her 
first duty was to convey that distinguished personage 
from the United States to his native shores.

The Rural, on Trial, at only Half Price! 
In response to late requests from Agents and 
others, we would state that, in order to accommodate 
those wishing to try the Rckal Nkw-Yorkek fora 
few months — and also as a means of introducing it 
more generally in many localities preparatory to the 
commencement of a now volume — we have conclu¬ 
ded to offer the paper from September 1st to January, 
or front October to January, at only Hai.f Pkiok. 
We will therefore send the Rural from September 1st 
to January ( l months, or 17 papers,) for S3 cents — or 
3 copies for $1, (> for $2, Ac. From October to Jan¬ 
uary (3 months — 13 papers.) at only 25 cts. per copy 
— or 4 copies for $1, « for $2, 12 for S3, &c. In each 
case wo will send to as many different post-offices as 
desired. Our Canada friends will of course add 
American postage (at the rate of 12J cts. for 12 
months,) to the above rates. 
?-ir- This is offering the Rural below war prices 
and at a rate affording us no profit. But we hope, By 
thus famishing the paper at or below cost, to intro¬ 
duce it to thousands who will become permanent

Enforcing tlic Donlisruiioii Act. 
The Proclamation of the President, issued on 
the HSth of August, giving notice of the intended 
confiscation, according to the act, of property owned 
in rebel States, was carried into operation on the 
1st iust., in New York. The fifteen days that, by 
the terms of the proclamation, were to elapse before 
* * - - . .i, 1 o . . - 
Saturday night. It. F. Andrews, tho Surveyor of 
the Port, gave notice to the revenue officers in com¬ 
mand at. the BargC-Office to have in readiness fifty 
officers, to await the onler of the Surveyor at 8 
o’clock Sunday morning. Punctually at that hour 
the Surveyor proceeded to the Barge-Office with 
Inspector Thomas J. Brown, and employing the 
revenue cutter G. Birkheck, with the fifty officers 
referred to, proceeded to take possession of all the 
ships in port belonging, in whole or in part, to citi¬ 
zens of States in insurrection, and placed revenue 
officers on board of each, to hold the same until the 
necessary proceedings can he instituted for their 
confiscation under the act aforesaid, and their con¬ 
sequent forfeiture to the United States. There were 
twenty-five vessels seized in all, and of these about 
an equal proportion of ships, barks, brigs and 
schooners. Some of the vessels and cargoes are 
very valuable, and altogether it is estimated that 
several million dollars will probably accrue to the 
Government. The vessels, however, will turn out 
to be owned in major part by Northern citizens, and 
the cargoes entirely so, and these interests will be 
released. On the 2d inst. eight more vessels were 
seized by the squadron, including the steamer Mariou 
and ship Trumbull. The latter was loaded and ready 
to sail for Antwerp. 
On the 4th inst the Cincinnati U. S. Marshal 
seized the interest of citizens of the rebel States in 
merchandize for sale on commission in that city, 
amounting to $50,000. 
On the 2d Inst, the U. S. Marshal in Philadelphia 
seized the bark Benjamin Haliett, and schooners G, 
H. Hyson, 5f. A. Shindler, Burrows, C. Arietes, 
Emma, Amelia, and Eagle. Other seizures are an¬ 
ticipated. Some action will be taken by the Col¬ 
lector to insure those Northern loyalists who own 
shares in the seized vessels their part of the concern. 
The steamers Champion, Hannibal and Meteor, 
property of rebel citizens, were seized at the St. 
Louis wharf on the (ith inst., and confiscated under 
the recent act of Congress.

of thrir paper* changed from one Post-Office to another, must, 
specify the old address as well as tho new to secure compliance 
with their requests. 
HdZ” No Tiuvklino Agents are employed by us, as we wish 
to give the whole Held to local agents and those who form clubs. 
And beside, wc wish it distinctly understood that all persons 
traveling through the country, professing to hold certificates 
from US, ARE IMPOSTORS. 
J jP-’fo Clergymen.—I n answer to inquiries wo would state 
that the Rural b sent to Clergymen at the lowest club rate ($1,- 
25 per year.) The Clergy arc among the warmest friends of the 
paper. Many are kindly using their influence In its behalf, and 
very snccrs-iful in their efforts to increase it* circulation. 
t.'&“ The Rural Is published strictly upou thouASu system 
—C opie* are never mailed to individual subscribers until paid 
for, aud always discontinued when tho subscription expires. 
Hence, we force the paper upon none, and keep no credit books, 
experience having demonstrated that tho Cash System is alto¬ 
gether the best for both Subscriber and Publisher. 
tir Western and Southern Money.—I n the present de¬ 
ranged state of the currency, we are unable to use Western and 
Southern money, a* our bankers will not purchase it at any 
rate of discouut Agents aud Subscribers who cannot obtain 
New York. New England, Pennsylvania, or Canada Money, will

to any nncurrent bank bill*.

V’lr Look Shauf, Friends’—I f those ordering the Rural 
would write all names of persons, pnst-jffices, Ac., correctly 
and plainly, wt; should receive less scolding about other people's 
errors. Our clerks are not Infallible, but most of the errors 
about which agents complain are not attributable to any one in 
the Rural Office. People who forget to date their letters at 
any place, or to sign their names, or to give tho name or 
address for copies ordered, will pleaso Like things calmly and 
not charge ui with thetr sins of omission, etc.
