The citizens are requested to assemble at the Le Claire House this morning, at 10 o’clock to take measures for the relief of our soldiers wounded at Fort Donelson, and especially those of our own town. We are informed Muscatine has already forwarded a delegation to the scene of the action, and it is suggested that Davenport should do the same. Let there be prompt action, whatever is done.
