DHsMolNEs, March B.
FRIEND JOURNAL For the past two or
three days, our Legislature machine has
worked admirably. Business, therefore,
dragging its slow length upon our hands, has
been despatched with pleasure to the fathers
of the various measures, and to al concern
led, or quietly placed beyord tho power Of res
direction. You may judge of the work on
hand, when inform you that in the House
have been introduced about $50 bills, and in
the Senate 40. About one-third Of the entire
number perhaps will pass. Every man mus.
|immortalize himself among his constituents.
Some adopt one method, some another. One
man will introduce bill containing from 10
to 25 sections, which, upon examination, is
ound to be identical with chapter of the
code, emitting one ''and," two "or's," one
"but," from the old and inserting in the new
law two lands" one ''or" and two "but's."
Another introduces long bill and obtains
leave to have I printed, when upon exam
ination it il found that the only difference
,etween it and the existing law is-one pro-
vides penalty Of $50; the other, 5000 /; and
50 on to the end of the chapter.
Another method of immortalizing, is the
call of the yeas and nays, upon striking out
ne worn Ut, ulbcISui6 Au0 WVsu VIZ"
&c., occupying ten minutes for each call, and
costing the State in the end round sum for
printing.
Ihs prospects now are that We shall ad-
iourn about the 7th Of April. Thus far. we
nave assumed the collection of the Federal
|tsx, and levied two mills therefore; made U.
| 5. Treasury Notes, Iowa Bond Notes, ard
Auditors Warrants on the War and Defence
Fund, receivable in payment Of taxes; re-
vived the old Code Law relating to Dover,
nearly perfected County Court system, with
many other important measures, which DO
not now recur to my mind.
Last Saturday morning, the Lieut.. Gov.
having gone home, the Senate elected Mr..
Woolson. of Henry Co., President pro tenn !;
md by the way, he makes most excellent
presiding officer, having had, should Judge,
some experience in parliamentary proceed
| ings. The friends of MIR. Woodward, who, by
the way are legion, presented his name for
the position. He was, however, compelled to
decline, from . severe cold, making 1t diff
cult for him to speak.
must say for MIR. Woodward, that he is
model Legislator. He never consumes
time upon un:mportant matters and even upon
he most important be is noted for his brew.
l ity md conciseness. A more laborOus man,
have never seen. His reports are models; in-
cessantly at work he natures every measure
we'll. His report cor corning the most vexed
question Of the Desmoines river lands and
resumption of the Railroad lands is looked
10. with much interest.

The N. Y. Tribune calls attention to the
fact that the Rel ublicans were the only par
ty that did not at the last Presidential cleo

ported for President John Bell, now rank

Some Of the men who supported secession,

masters, are now reading lectures to the men
who supported loyalists. They are especial
ly affecting when they speak of the Oonstitu'
ton, and its guarantees, and all that But
there are thousands who thank God that the
candidates of these men were not chosen, who
eschew the doctrines of the parties which
misled them, and who will hereafter act with
the Republicans only.

Several years ago, Col. Benton warned
the country to beware of Jeff. Davis, in
the following language: 'He is a martinez
pulled up with West Point science, dogmat
ical and pragmatical, within his circle; but
that circle is narrow one, and he moves un-
controlled within it. He is an avowed seces.
sionist."
s@ The prisoners at Camp Douglas, Chi
cago, are to be set at work to drain the camp
grounds, and thus free the enclosure of the
puddlcs of water and making the grounds
more pleasant and healthy. 1t is a good idea,
and the prisoners won't object, they being
anxious for the proposed improvement.

VIsrT TO THE SEcEsH PRIsoNERs.-Last
Saturday, while in Chicago, having fortunately
met Mr.. G. S. Bartlett, at present paymastcr' $
clerk, by whose influence we obtained pass,
we had the privilege of seeing the five thou
sand specimens of the "butternut tribe" now
confined in Camp Douglas. The accounts a.
ready published of the appearance and dis
position Of these prisoners were corroborated
by our observations. They are, with but
few exceptions, the lowest and most ignorant
class of Southerners, who have been fighting,
as they say, to prevent "the abolitionists from
coming down thar to set the niggers free. "
Some of them declare they have no objections
to see the negroes free provided they are
taken away, but don't want them left among
them as equals.
The order Just issued to exclude visitors
hereafter from the camp is a good one. We
found the prisoners had been tempered with
too much by visitors-some Of whom freely
sympathize with them in the secession cause,
and others, better disposed, who treat them
with too much consideration, as heroes. The
result is the prisoners are much more defa:.t
and bitter towards the North than they were
few weeks since.
The change Of climate has given nearly
every one Of them bad colds, and upwards Of
forty have already died of pneumonia. Their
quarters, however, are as comfortable as
could be expected and excepting the sloppy
condition of the ground could not be i'm
proved.

WATER. The people Of Chicago are just
now having splendid time with the water
that is furnished Thorn by the Water Works
of that city The Journal in speaking of the
matter says:
1.-THE water nuisance is becoming stillmor
unbearable. Dead fish, as large a. the pipes
will pass, come out in quantities that would
delight Cape Cod fisherman. Larger ones
remain rotting IN the mains, together with
lizards, turtles, nevis and olood suckers, or
come away in pieces. For three days we
havn't tasted water, tea nor coffee-and vari-
