The Iowa Democratic State Conven-
ton.

CHICAGO, June 81.
The democratic State convention, OF
Iowa, met ut DesMoines on the Gath inst,
and nominated Charles Mason for Cover
nor. Resolutions were adopted declaring
the irrepressible conflict the cause OF the
war; censuring the South for resorting to
arms to redress grievances; opposing Sc
cession as political heresy also, censur-
ing the President for assuming and exer-
cising arbitrary power; but pledging the
support of the democrats of Iowa to sup
port the government in the exercise of its
legitimate functions in constitutional
manner; also, favoring national convon-
ton TO settle pending difficulties,

The PRESIDENTS MEssAGE.-The fol-
lowing is tho concluding paragraph of the
State Journals comments on President
Lincoln's late message:
"While we might have wished little
moro detail in his recommendations, and
while we could have dispensed with his
proposition in reference to State Sover-
eighty, which are of tho old Federal
stripe, and which will never be entertain
ed by the people of this country, as a
whole we have no objections to make to
the message. If his Congress and his
administration will carry ont honestly and
faithfully his recommendations, they will
be sanctioned in them by the whole poo
pie, and if this rebellion can be thus bro
ken down the country can DO saved
And when ballots can have an opportuni-
ty of reversing the decision of last No
vember, we think the people will be sat
isfied not to try the experiment Of Sec
tional party again. If Mr.. Lincoln had
recommended the abandonment of the re-
publican party organization, he would
have suggested n measure as potent, il
carried out, as any that could be suggest
ed to bring this war TO close, and if its
members arc truly patriotic, they would
perform so small an act of patriotism
most cheerfuly TO save the country"

WHAT LIE!-Tbe New York Herald reports
that Maj Anderson, while.at Harrisburg Pa, told
Gov. Curtin that John. G. Breckenridge was to
command regiment in his Apdersons) Lincoln

must be with the Herald. Badly as Anderson
has acted and badsas has been the character of his
late associates, we think he has not yet 80 yield

lost all sense of shame The Herald never had
any. .----~- = -ss- - -.

statement about Mr. Breckinridge, it is DOW nm
derstood that Col. Anderson derived his informa-

it to Gov, Curtin as gratifying report, and did
not give it as fact. r-- a
The idea of Mr. Brecknridge's joining the Lin
