DEs MoisEs, Jan. %, 1864.

We had n very animated discussion in
the House, on Tuesday afternoon, which
neglected to mention. 1t grew out Ola
resolution introduced by ME. Richards,
Of Dubuque, requesting the Governor to
inform the House what counties he re-
fertfed to in his inaugural address, as re-
fusing to provide for soldiers families
The Dubuque delegation spread them
selves y in vindicati6n+ Of the honor Of
their county, From the vigorous and
earnest manner in which they" went int"
stranger would have thought that an
the patriotism Of Iowa had been concen-
trated in. Dubuque county. They, sefi1!'
ed to take the Governors remarks alto
themselves, and made several big Efforts
to clear themselves OF such charge, and
in the course of their remarks took &C
casion to call in question the INTEGRITY
of the Sanitary Commission. " This
brought the q gentleman from Pottawat-
tamie" to his feet quick iiii K as thought. He
considered the Sanitary Commission the
purest and nob1est association ever or;
ganizcd, and no man would be permit
tcdto speak 'lisrespectrully Of i, in his
hearing, and 60 unrebukcd. The bene
fit conferred by it upon our sick and
wounded soldiers, in the field and in the
E
hospital, and the good accomplished by
it, was beyond the power Of man to cal
culate. There was not a true man in
the land who did not feel his blood boil
with Indignation and contempt toward.

principles ef truth, patriotism and man
hood a8 10 speak in terms of distespeet
of that. institution, the name of which is
revcred and worShipnd by our heroic de-
Tenders in the field, and embalmed in
the heart of every patriot in the. State
One of the Democratic members arose
to point Of order said the gentleman
from Pottawaitamie was personal in his
remarks. Mr. Bell replied, - the pres

party upon this floor renders i. .impossi-
