Bribery i'm Iowa.

II will be seen by the following statements,
which we copy from the ST. Louis Republican,
lha, the Loco Foco politicians of Iowa are re-
sorting TO bribery to secure The election Of Uni
ted States Senators in that State:
"On the 10Th inst Immediately on the as
semblng of the House. MI. King, a Wing mem-
Der from Keokuk, a Loco-Foco County, in.
formed the House that Mr. Marshall, lawyer
from Lee county. had been negotiating with
him, from the second day of the session up to
that time, to vote for Gen odge-,hat his first
which was increased, as he held off for higher
wages, 10 the promise Of id fat Office and
as much money as he wished He stated,
also lha, Marshall told him ',here was six
thousand dollars there TO secure Dodge's cleo
ton, and that on Tuesday Marshall gave him
fifteen dollars to bind the bargain-which he
(King) by The advice of friends took. These
are leading facts. When King took his seat,
Clifton and Conlee, Loco Foco 'possums,' rose
aud stated that they TOO could a tale unfold
whenever in,errogated. The House a. once
raised committee TO investigate the facts, and
the Sergeanl-at-Arms took Marshall into Gus
.ody. During Kings speech, it is said thai
some of the royal family were present, and
that they looked black as ,hunder-cloud. Te
give Mr.. King an excuse for voting for Dodge
set of instructions were procured directing
him TO vote for Loco Foco Senators. Mr.. Kin.
made allusion TO these instructions in his speech
said that every man who signed them vo'et
agains, him > that he received his instruction
at the ballot box > that he was elected as
Whig,' and should vote with his party"

important coNouEsTs, by making appropriations Tor
Notifications of course; held fortlfl-
cations or other operations proper TO state oil war
not requiring such specific appropriatons-and
for defraying the expenses Of the civil government
which our officers have, by order OF the President
established in these Territories of the United
States" This recommendation by the Executive
is full recognition of what his officers have said
and done.
The President refers to the Law of Nations as
authorizing what he has done, and proposes to do
in California and New Mexico. Leaving him to
settle with Congress the question how far state
of war erects an Executive authority supreme over
both Congress and the Constitution, we will con-
tent ourselves with saying that in what the Presl-
dent asserts to be the right and duty OF the con-
oueror," he and his advisers have evidently sui
fered themselves to be misled by the antiquated
maxims of writers upon national law who flourish
ed at time when such thing as a written Con-
stitution was as unknown as the Magnetic Tele-
graph; at time when all power was deemed the
prerogatve of the ruler, and all rights of the peo
pie regarded as gracious concessions by him In
their favor These maxims, therefore, so far as
they concern the relations between our Executive
and his constituents or their representatives In
Congress, have, in many cases, no application at
all and certainly have none when they are re-
sorted to for the purpose of deriving from them tor
the President powers which are denied to him by
the Constitution The President has of himself
no lawful authority TO annex or acquire territory,
or to establish civil governments over territories
either within or without the United States. All
such acts are foreign to his office, and, in the alb
sence of any authority derived from Congress,
cannot but be regarded as usurpations of power.

Correspondence of the Daily Chronicle.


Washington, Jan. 4th
The Senate transacted no business of import
ance to-day. A message was received from the
President asking for an increase of field officers,
and the creation of general officer to take COM
mand of all the forces during the war with Mexico,
which was read and referred to the Committee on
Military Affairs.
House.--Mr. Thompson, of Pa, who was absent
on Saturday, said he would have voted for Mr..
Wentworth's resolution, declaring it inexpedient
to lay tax on tea and coffee.
Mr.. King, of Georgia, offered resolution to
furnish the President with thirty thousand dollars
for the purpose of sending peace mission to Mex
co, and two millions of dollars to effect the nego-
tiation--with the provision that slavery was to be
prohibited in the territory secured. The House
refused to suspend the rules, and the resolution
lies over one day.
Mr.. Bailey, of Virginia who was recently held
to bail in $4,000, in consequence of the difficulty
between him and Mr. Davis, which it was supposI
ed would lead to duel, made an explanation, and
said the correspondence with Mr.. Davis was with
drawn, and the quarrel settled
Mr.. Davis. of Kentucky, explained, and ex.
pressed himself as satisfied.
The Presidents message also asks for ten ad-
ditional regiments of troops, 10 be added to the
