IowA-A GLoR1oUs RECoRD.-We
learn from Mrs. Secretary Harlan, who
has been so much engaged in benevolent
efforts 10 behalf of Union soldiers during
the war, that the State Of Iowa, through
her Sanitary Commission, from March
lst, 1864, to March 1st, 1865, paid into
the Northwestern branch of the United
States Sanitary Commission about sl2,-
600 cash more than Michigan, Illinois,
Wisconsin, a and Minncso.a together, du
nisbed larger number of packages oi
sanitary supplies than any:of the above
States except Illinois, and was ahead of
Illinois until Nov. 1864.
We also learn that the State of Iowa
furnished over 10000 more soldiers than
her quota under all Government levies.
The small draft there was owing to def
cient credits which were afterwards cor
rceted.
1t is also stated on good authority, that
of over 10000 men mustered into the
service of the United States from that
State during the rebellion, only one sol.
der has been dishonorably discharged.
Considering her wealth and population,
is she not in both military aud sanitary
labor the Banner State Of the Union p

Henry Winter Davis ON Negro Suffrage.

AACusy "luscS DdVAS On NckuO CuHTages
The telegraph has already informed
our readers that the Hon. H. W. Davis,
Of Maryland, took strong ground in favor
of negro suffrage, in his speech at the Gel.
ebration of the Fourth in Chicago. He
demanded the ballot for the negro as at
once the highest justice and the highest
expediency. The following is an extract
FROM his speech:
No State Government has ever been
reorganized which ostracised a msiority
or any great mass of the people. When
slavery existed, slaves were merged in
the use Of the master. But the right of
the State to ostrocise great mass of free
negroes has never been organized. They
were handful everywhere but in Mary
land-and thero they voted with the
whites on the adoption of the Coustitu-
tion Of tho United States. If this pre-
csdcot be set now, it is for the first time
to be set. When negroes become free
they become part Of the people of tho
nation; aud to ostracise them is to sane
ton . principle fatal to American free
Government.
In South Carolina there are twice as
many negroes as whites; in Mississippi
there are moro negroes than whites; in
Alabama, in Louisiana, and G eorgia they
are nearly equal. They are now in suf-
the re.uI. Of any election. "fhey wit
vote with their masters'-insideous gen
tlemen toll us-then at least let their
masters be under tho necessity of touch
ing their hats to them to get their votes.
Laughter aud applause. "They are
not intelligent enough to vote,' another
says. They know fellow. citizens a grey
uniform from a blue one. [Applanse
They know a Yankee from their masters.
[Applause.] They have fought we'll uu-
der Yankee leadership; may bs they can
vote as intelligcntly under Yankee lead
ership. [Contiuued applause They are
not spread in equal masses over the
Southern country, but they are congre-
gated in particular districts that border
the Atlantic, the Gulf, and the Missis-
sippi, and are in immense majorities in
fully one-tbird of the Congressional Dis
tricts Of the South. They can break the
the terrible unity Of the Southern vote
that plunged US into the rebellion. Men
who are not capable of understanding
considerations like these had better 60
and whine about negro votes. have
seen about as much of negroes as any of
you, have lived as near them, and sup
pose I have as much prejudice toward
them as any of you; but to talk of this
after We have had to call them to our aid
10 putting down this rebellion is either
driveling folly or Infinite meanness.-
Applause.

At all periods of his life DR.. johnson
used to talk contcmptuouSly of players.
Perhaps this was not without reason, al
though there is no doubt that much of
the great moralist's acrimony atthis class
of men came from human iniirmity. His
best friends admit that he was jealous of
bis pupil, Garrick, whose position he
though, too high when compared with
that of literary men, and there seems
good reason to believe that he even en-
We'd Sheridan. On one occasion, after
seeing Garrick perform, be declared that
the players had got kind of rant, with
which they run on without any regard to
accep. or emphasis. Garrlck resented
the sarcasm, aud johnson asked him to
repeat the Ninth Commandment, Thou
shalt not bear false witness against thy
neishbor," which he did, and failed, in
the estimation Of johnson and of DIR.
Taylor, who was present, who both in
sisted that the emphasis should be upon
not and false witaess. johnson is said
to have been in great glec at the actors
failure; bat it is difficult to see with
what Justice, for even Boswell insists
that the emphasis should be equally upon
shalt and not, as both concur to form the
negative injunction, and false scitness,
like the other acts prohibited in the dec
alogue, should not be marked by any pc
cuiar emphasis, but only be distinctly
enup ciated kcarncy, in commenting
on the story, says a moderate emphasis
should be placed on fuse. Sheridan, in
his Art of Reading, places the emphasis
wholly on Jalse. We incline to think
that the best readers in our day place the
emphasis on no one word, but distinctly
enunciate the whole, and this is probably
the wav that Garrick read the sentence.

President Lincoln and Gen'l Grant on
Negro Suffrage at the South.

Negro SuuT0Sc III tue oOutns
President Lincoln was in favor Of the
extension Of tho right of suffrage to the
blacks, ss the following letter to Governor
Hahn, of Louisiana, shows:
exec. MANSION. Washington, March 49, GA.
"HoN Mr.. HAHN-My Dear Scr
I congratulate you in having fixed your
name in history as the first Free State
Governor of Louisiana. So now you are
about to have q convention, which, among
other things, will define the elective
franchise. l barely suggest for your pri.
vate consideration, whether some of the
colored people may not be let in, as, for
instance, tho very intelligent; especially
those who have fought gallantly in our
ranks. They would probably help in some
trying time to come to keep the jewel Of
liberty in the family Of freedom. But
this is only suggestion, not to the pub
lie, but to you alone.
'Yours truly, A. LINCOLN"
IN this connection We give the follow.
ing from the Chicago Tribune:
"Gen. Grant, in conversation with his
friends, says that it is too soon to declare
that the loyal blacks in the South shall
not be allowed to vote. Aside from the
abstract legal right and the legal problem
of what authority can confer or withhold
the fran chise-whether it be in Congress
or tho States-the question may assume
the shape of political necessity. The
government and people may have to
choose between keeping standing army
of 100, 900 men ut an expense Of $780,
O00,00 year to tho tax payers, to sup.

MRS, SuRRATr.-There appears to be
STUDIED attempt to make political, if
not religious, capital out Of the execution
Of Mrs Surratt, With the known feel
ings Of all Americans toward women it is
not strange that the execution of female
should be revolving. Yet, if there ever
was, or can be, warrant for hanging
q woman, surely it may be found in the
case aparticipan. in the most stupcn-
dous crime of the age.
Il was proved on her trial that Mrs.
Surratt was in constant intercourse with
the copspirators-that she prepared the
way for the fight ofthe assassins, after
they should commit the deed--conveyed
the carbines with which they were to
defend themselves from their pursuers,
and left them with the injunction to
"have the shoo,ing-irons ready" on call
denied ever having seen the ruflian
who attempted Secretary Stewards life,
when he came with pick axe on his shoul.
der to hsr house, though he had been an
inmate thereof, and perfectly well known
to her. If any Of the oonspirators were
guilty, We regard Mrs. Surratt as. most So
1t was her counsel that doubtless led
these cpnspirators on and nerved them
to the commission of the deed. The in
fuence that bad woman can exert for
such apurpose may scarcely be measured.
1t is such as she that gave life and tone
to the rebellion, and led thousands Of
young men to early graves. The rebel
women Of the South have caused the
shedding of more innocent blood than all
the Generals in the field; and such being
the case, wcrcsard sympathy as mis-
placed when the more guilty are brought
to punishment. - Chicayo JouAnal.

THE "SEA BIRD.n--Captain W1LLIAH
MARKHAM has arrived with his snug little
steam craft purchased by him at the late
Government sale of steamers at Mound
3 City. The "Sea Bird" (the name he has
given his boat }, is really a beautiful model,
and has had several useful improvements
made to her which render her very tidy
and comfortable throughout. Her length
is 80 feet; breadth of beam, 90 feet; di
+. ameter of cylinder, Is inches; length of
stroke, 8 feet, inches; and tonnage,
rs tons. .......s ...- E
We took ramble through this prim
and attractive little vessel yesterday and
must confess, that we were highly pleased
with all Of her arrangements. She has q
superior engine, with polished wrought
iron shafts, besides an excellent boiler,
drum and other outfits equal to first
class steamer. She was formerly the AL
exandria, and was used by Admiral Porter
as tender TO his Mississippi feet. Her
hull is perfectly sound, and so are all her
wood works.
Should Capt. MARKHAM succeed in OBJ.
tanning the ferry contract with our city
and West Baton Rouge, it is his intention
to make such other alterations in his ves-
sci as will adapt her more completely for
the purposes Of ferry boat.
With such commodious and convenient
little steamer at hand, we think that the
authorities having the power to extend
ferry privileges in this vicinity, will be
standing in their own light should they
not seize upon the present opportunity for
securing the services Of Capt. MARKHAN's
"Sea Bird" as q ferry boat.
