General Dodge.

We observe, by the Iowa papers,
that this distinguished gentleman is
prominently before the public as q
Democratic candidate for Governor.
We had the pleasure of making the
acquaintance of Mr.. Dodge, on the &C.
casion of a recent visit to his relative,
Col. Dement,, Of this city, and can as
sure our Iowa friends that, should he
be elected, their gubernatorial chair
will be filed by gentleman, a states
man and scholar.
We copy the following from Du-
buque paper, in regard to his abilities
As a diplomatist
"A distinguished traveller, in con-
versation with Lord Howdon, the
British Minister at Madrid, who, by
the by, is known as one of the most
astute diplomats in Europe, asked him
how he classed the various representa-
tives from abroad at Madrid. Lord
Howdon replied that, in point of fin
ished education, experience and diplo-
matte tact, Turgot, the French Minister,
excelled; but if he were to make choice
of the man possessing the soundest
judgment, the greatest decision of
character and honesty Of purpose, he
should select General Dodge, the Min
lister from the United States.
General Escalante, late Minister to
the United States from Spain, on his
arrival at Washington, expressed the
opinion that Gen. ID. was the most
popular and highly esteemed Minister
thea at Madrid, and this opinion was
fully corroborated last winter, at a d.
plomatic dinner given by President
Pierce, at the Presidential mansion,
where General Escalante stated that he
had just received letter from his
predecessor, General Qneto, writing
from Madrid, in which General Dodge
was denominated the most able and
deservedly esteemed Minister ever &C
credited to that Court Dixon Id
vertiser.

In his late speech at keokuk, Mr..
Rusch stated that he claimed the sup
port Of the German voters Of Iowa, on
the ground that he is their country
man. To this, Col. Schade, in his able
speech, objected, on the following very
strong grounds
Because it places his claims to
election upon nationality and not upon
principle. This was the very essence
OF Know Nothingism revived by lis old
supporters in a new form. If the Ger.
mans are called! upon to support Mr..
Rusch because he is German, Ameri-
cans may be called upon to vote for Mr..
Babbitt because heis an American, and
whore, then, would Mr.. Rusch be ?
Where would any German or other
foreigner stand who may ever be nomi-
mated in opposition to an American, if
men are to vote upon their mere
national afiinities without regard to
principle Z"
Suppose this same argument we're
advanced BY every candidate for Office
IN the United States would it not de.
bar every foreigner from offices We
think that in taking such q view of the
matter Mr.. Rusch virtually asks to be
beaten. He asks for the Germans to
vote for him because he is native Of
Germany +; on precisely the same prin-
e'pls' if he be honest, he would have
every American citizen vote for Bah.
Dit, because he is an American. h;t

Nothiags Mr.. Ru,ch has b.com. ON.

ARMsTRoNG's LONG RANGE.-A few
days ago we saw the range and accura-
cy Of the new Armstrong gun tested in
a way which demands note. Cool
ing ourselves on the Essex coast, near
the artillery ground, we were asked to
see the firing, and while this goes slow
ly and solemnly on, one of them spies
fight Of geese for out at sea. "There,
they light on yon sand bank" Up 90
dozen glasses. Yes, there they flick
err in the sun, grey and white, mere
specks in the blue sea air. Load the
gun-load the breach-poise-touch
bang! Boat off there to the sands .
A signal tells the tale. The shot has
struck the swarm-a life is taken from
the highland this at six miles seven
furlongs from the mouth of the gun
A shot well aimed from Primrose Hill
should hit the ball on Greenwich OBJ
scrvatory or, if fired from Richmond
Park, should bring down a rider in
Rotton Row. Here is fact worth the
attention of those Austrian engineers
who have just come to London to study
our new artillery and learn how to de-
fend Verona against the Frank.-Lon-
don Athen0um.
