The appointment Of Senator Dodge has
been trumpeted in the locofoco papers, with
an amount of laudatlon, more especially in
the papers whose editors have received boz
nus in the shape of an Office or Government
advertising ct tho hands of General Dodge,
that is truly astonishing. We have seen a
good many notices of different kind, not
nearly so complimentary. The correspon-
dent of the New York Tribune says the ar-
pointment is received with silence; and the
correspondent of the Providence Journal re-
marks -
s'Men stand COMPOUNDED, like the profane
fellow when his load Of hay was overturned,
who did not swear because he could not do
justice to the subject"
ssThe New Bedford Mercury says Of Caesar:
s'He is the man for the place. He knows
not word of Spanish or French, and will
not get into quarrel for or by hasty speech
es. He faced three thousand clergy here at
home, and as Spain is understood to be a
priest-ridden country, he can be trusted to
defy that ecclesiastical influence supposed to
predominant in that Court. He has not, as
far as we can learn, single qualification fol
an Ambassador, and therefore is wisely Sc
lected according to the canons Of our diplo-
matte SERVICE"

cFA very shallow argument, As we con-
ceive, has been extensively used in this State
and elsewhere, against the temperance law.
And tina. il that governments have no right
to make restraining laws for the purpose of
coercing men into morality, that such matters
should be loft for the Church and moral sua-
sion. This argument, If good one, holds
with equal propristy, against many other
laws, which have been acquiesced in for a
great many years, without question in re-
gard to their propriety. But the fact is the
temperance law is not law to make men
moral whether they will or no. That is:
such is not the object of the law as we un-
derstand it. The law is for the protection
Of innocent parties. tits a law for the pro-
lection of women and children. 1t is law
for the prevention Of poverty, theft, and
murder-to prevent pauperism, and for the
relief of the tax payers of Iowa. And the
effect of it will be to clotn the drunkards wife
feed his children, and send them to school
instead Of the strest-to empty our jails, de-
populate our penitentiary, and cheat the glib
bstt of it, victims.

WASHINGTON, March |.
SENATR.-Sundry Committees from the
heads of Departments, in pursuance of previ-
Gus inquiry from the Senate were receiv ed.
when Mr.. Cass NOV ed to take UP the resolu-
tions, appeal to Mr.. Woodward's report
from the committee on Foreign relations
Objections were made but Or calling the yeas
and nays, the Senate decide to take them up
and they were passed without amendments
The civil and diplomatic bill Wa then taken
up.
Mr.. Broadhead. l am oppos to the in
corporation of the tariff in the Appropriation
Bill in view of coming events and the pecu-
liar character of the next House of Repre-
sentatives. Such measure will come back
to plague its inventors before half Year
from this time. The Senator from Virginia
says the plethora of the public treasury d..
mands this measure. A falling off from the
public lands of 100000, the Bounty land
bill just signed will soon reduce the plethora.
hope we will 60 on and pass the Appropri-
alton bill erasing that Incorporated interfer-
ence with the Industrial interests of the coun-
try.
Mr.. Badger offered an amendment to the
Tariff section to refund duties on Railroad
iron, which has been laid down for Is months
past, and which may be laid down for Is
months to come and providing the stuffs and
manufactured wool be admitted duty free.
MIR. Cooper-This tariff provision requires
great elaboration. IL this tariff incorpora-
ton prevails, shall move as an amendment
to the bill, the French Spoliation bill, and
somebody else will move to tack on the
river and harbor bill, and another to
incorporate Miss Dix's bill for the In
sane. If you establish this precedent, you
will find every magnitude measure tumbled
anonymously upon the Senate at the close
of the session, adding, if possible to the con-
fusion which generally prevails then. would
as willingly see all duties resclnded, as wit.
ness the enactment of such sections as those
relating to the tariff in this bill.
Messrs Pearce and Bayard thought it would
be better to defeat the appropriation bill than
to pass it in its present form.
MIR. Benjamin objected to the bill, alleging
that in making scale for the reduction, an
undue advantage had been given to manu-
facturers.
MIR. Hunter said that as the measure had
been carried in the House by votes from all
sections of the country. the tariff modification
was as good as could be desired.
Mr.. james remarked to Mr.. Hunter, that
many members in the House voted for the
bill with the understanding that it would be
amended by the Senate.
HousE.-An act was passed amending an
act carrying into effect the reciprocity trea-
ty. The House then went into Committee of
he whole on the Senates amendments to the
army appropriation bill.

of the Keokuk Wing have changed the name
Of their paper to that of 'sThe Gate City,

predecessor was, under the management of

Later From California.


New ORLEANS, Feb. %.
The steamer Daniel Webster, from San
Juan, arrived at this port to-day. She brings
dates from California to 9th inst. She con-
nected with the steamship Cortez which sailed
from San Francisco on the 9th, and brings
$500, 900 in freight.
The Legislature of California had made
another attempt to elect U. S. Senator, be-
ing the 44th ballot, which resulted in no
choice.
The mining interest continues to suffer
greatly for want Of water, recent rains having
furnished very limited supply.
In the interior markets, better feeling
was exhibited for some classes of merchandise,
especially in provisions. For the inferior
grades the demand was light and no sales
were reported.
the isthmus is reported healthy. The rev.
olution in Central America was progressing,
and Chpmiro achieved important advantages
over OKstill.
The Cortez brought 1926, 900 in gold, con-
signed to Page, Bacon & Co., in St Louis,
from their house in San Francisco.

Frozen TO pKArH.-We learn that three
out of family of five persons, living in
johnson Co., Mo-, were frozen to death on
the Doth ult. They were living in very
open cabin in the prairie; the snow drifted
through the cracks of the cabin to such an
extent that they determined to 60 to neigh

lost their way, and wandering about until
the woman an thre children became exhaus-
ted and laid dow; the man finally succeed
cd in getting to the house and got help and
returned for the others; when they came to
them the children were already dead and the
woman so badly frozen that il she gets well

AN EDITOR IN A NICE POSITION.

Some three or four weeks since, the Burling-
ton Gazette, in accordance with its we'll estab-
lishsd character, and its acknowledged abil-
ity in little things, published ia its columns
what purpsrted to be part of private con-
versation had at the Office of Hall & Thomp-
son, in tie presence of certain gentlemen
named, in which it was pretended that Mr..
RUFUs L. 3. CLARK, had made certain admis-
sions touching tho election of JAMS HARLAN
to the Senate. This conversation between
individuals supposed to be gentlemen, was
picked up, distorted into very different thing,
and published in the Gazette, for the benefit
Of party which may we'll be said to be on
its last legs. The publication was so absurd
in its statements, and withal so entirely un-
important and s'little" that we never noticed
it in any manner, thinking it best to leave
the editor, in undisputad possession Of all the
fame, and the party to possess all the capital
likely to grow out Of it.
After the appointment of DR.. Harvey to
thc.ofiice of Surveyor Of tho port Of Burling-
ton, thus placing him on the pension list for
Eve hundred year, the name of the proprie-
torship was changed to 'sWM. THOMPSON &
Co." And in one of the first, if not the very
first issue after the change, disclaimer was
published very CURLY denying on the part Of
Col. 7. that he had anything to do with Gre
failing Conversations which occurred at
Judge Halls Office, &C., &C., and casting the
odium on DR.. Harvey, his s'latc partner"!
This IL the uukindest cut of all!
We are very glad Of this disclaimer on the
part of Gel. Thompson, and augur from it a
more creditable course for the Gazette in fu-
ture. That he should wish to clear his skirts
of the business is not strange.
If he is now, as is insinuated sole editor OF
the Gazette, and wishes to establish char
acter for his paper, thing which it has long
needed, there is but one thing to DO done in
this matter. Aud tina. is to publish the dis
claimer Of Mr.. Clark which lately appeared
in tho Mt. Pleasant Observer. Common JUS
tice requires 1t at the hands of Col. Thomp-
son.
