A. will be seen from telegraphie dis.
pstches copied into smother column, the
House Of Representatives at Washington
has organized BY the election Of a Re-
publican Speaker. Mr.. PENSiNuros,
the present Speaker, is . reliable Repub-
lican. lie voted Tor Mr.. Sherman FROM
first to last. The evening after bis cleo
ton he was sersuaded BY . large crowd
to whom he made . speech, ia which he
strongly opposed the extension Of slave.
~. The Southern Ere eaters have hush
ed up their cry Of . dissolution Of the
Union iu case q Republican was elected
Speaker The Governor Of Maryland, .
slave State, sent bis Secretary to Wash
ingtou to congratulate Speaker Penning-
ton on his election. We expect that
after Republican shall have been elect
cd President next fall. that the South
will subside as readily Is now, and he
will be importuucd for Office BY South
erners much more than BY Northerners.
Mr.. Foruey, who is elected Clerk, is
one Of the bitterest enemies Of the Ma.
tional Democracy in the United States,
and we expect henceforth he will be
found acting with the Republicans

1t may be too lato for any thing that
We may say, to have any influence in de-
terminiug the time and place Of holding
the Iext Republican State Convention,
still we propose to say few words on
the subject. As to the time, We think
that it should be Immediately after the
National Convention at Chicago, so that
it may be made, not merely convention
to nominate State officers, but also q
grand rally Of the Republicans Of Iowa
to ratify the doings Of the National Con.
ventian and to give an impetus to the
cause that will render it perfectly ire
sistable. BY the word Gimme diately,"
As used above, We do not mean the next
day, and perhaps it would not be best to
have it the same week, but We mean so
soou thereafter that We can secure the
presence of few of the eminent men that
will be in attendance upon that Conven-
ton. We could give many reasons why
We think such o Convention at such
time would do much good, and we pre-
sumo the same reasons will suggest
themselves to others. If it is determin-
ed to have the Convention soon after the
National Convention as above suggested,
we think that it should be held on the
inc Of some Railroad, So that it may be
easy of access from the more populous
portions Of the State. If, as We under.
stand is to be the case, the NJ. <. NJ. r.
Il. is to be finished to Ma:cngo prior to
that time, it might be best to hold it
there. We think it would be better to
hold it at Cedar Rapids, Iowa City,
Washington, or even ut Ottumwa, than
at Dcs Moines. We throw out these
suggestions, and hope that, if they are
worthy of consideration, our editorial
brethren will take hold of the matter and
enlarge upon it.

Herald Correspondence.-The Senate
printing investigation committee met
this morning. Mr.. Wendell underwent
an examination of upwards Of three
hours. 1t appeared tina. some seven or
eight parties we're interested in the pub

McLane, Walker, Rice, Seaverns and
Bowman. He stated that he had paid out
during the past three years over Sloo
900 for party support to newspapers
and in aid of the election expenses, in
Pennsylvania principally, but extending
over New Jersey, New York, Maryland,
Ohio, &c. Considerable had been paid
By official authority, and some ofhis own
free will. He also stated that by the
action of the Senate in electing Bowman,
who had given the work to Blair & l.iv-
cs, he had been left penniess with the
largest establishment in the Union ly-
ing idle. Bowman's conduct towards
Wendell was shown in very bad hight
Bowman, it appeals, has given part of
the work to Jewett, editor of the Fill,

A. d. Banks and Jos. Scvcrns were
also examined, but they did not seem to
know much, except that they had re.
ceived some aid from Wendell
Wendell testified that out of the Post

At time like the present, when SO
many are pctitiouing our Legislature for
relief laws, SO called, there is great dan
ger Of hasty and unwise legislation. OF
this character, it seems to US was the
action Of both branches of our Legisla.
ture on Tuesday of last week, on the
subject of reducing the rate of interest
on delinquent taxes. la the Senate o
bill was passed providing that the inter
est on all delinquent State and County
taxes that should be paid prior to the
4th day Of July next should be reduced
to ten per cent. 1t was urged by those
opposed to the bill, that il would be
equivalent to the abolition of all laws for
the collection of taxes, and that it would
benefit, mainly, SPECTATORS that were
already shaving our working population
to the quick. As sample of the rea-
soning of some who favored the bill, we
give the remarks Of Mr. Angle, Senator
from Linn county, as We find them in the
State Register:
"Mr. Angle would vote for the bill, as
amended because many Of his constitu-
ents were old birds who had anticipated
this measure, and had been lending their
money that they should have paid their
taxes with, at > per cent a month. know
ing that the penalty would be reduced.
lie thought it was just to them that he
should legislate for their interests -
Ninety nine hundredths of his con.titu-
ents who workfo living had paid their
taxes, and needed no such measure of
relief Tie bill was a miserable abor.
ion
lie also stated that it was, in his opir.
ION, no injustice to those who had paid
their taxes just as though they would
not have to be taxed CHER in the future
to make up for the deficiencies occasion.
ed by this reduction.
We find in the Register, tho following.
Mr.. Hastings said that O., he v,.
interested IN the passag" of this bill, h,
presumed he would not have the privi.
le:e OF voting upon it. The principle of
this Bill was wrong. although it might
put few dollars in his pocket Tn,
class who would be relieved by this bill
was class Of men who were not the
hard working and industrious. In hi.
district, those who were engaged in pro-
ductivc industry had made provision for
the payment Of their taxes. 1t had been
said that the reduction Of the rate of in.
terest would facilitate the payment Of
taxes. 1t is true it would facilitate the
payment of IL per cent. Of it at least
and the whole tax could be easily dispo,.
ed OF in the same way. lie was in favor

cd. When the Republicsss are to have
q regular broad side, the same editorial
il; struck in the middle, and parts first
and third arc mingled At the close. The
management Of this standing editorial
brings 10 mind On anccdote which We
will relate. A farmer was troubled BY ;
long vissgcd, slabsided, pcndulous cared
specimen Of the "gate-opener' breed Of
Of hogs. After several fruitless efforts
to find breach in the fence, the farmer
found that the depredator entered the
field through . crooked hollow log that
laid in the run. "A bright idea struck
him, he placed the log under the
fence corner so that both ends were on
the outside Of the fence, and secreted
hin self to see the result The hog soon
came and went through the log but
seemed astonished to find herself on the
same side she had started from she tried
q second time in the opposite direction,
then third, but finding she made no
progress, she stood perp'excd for short
time, when being frightened BY the cir.
cumstance, she picked up her ears as
we'll as she could, gave a peculiar erunt
and fed as fast As possible. The edito-
rial l have referred to is gone through
in the same way-the difference between
the two is, that when the old sew found
she was gaining nothing she was sharp
enough to take the hint. F. T.
