Congressional Brutality.

The floor of the House of Repre-
sentatives, during the closing hours
of the session, last week, was made
the scene Of 4 most disgusting and
disgraceful exhibition of Congress
sional blackguardism and brutality,
the actors in which were the incv-
table Butler, Farnsworth, of Illi-
nois, and Beck, of Kentucky. Dur
ing the greater part of the session
of the day these adopts in scurrility
hurled at each other epithets, slang,
vituperation, and personalities of
various sorts, not only without re-
buke from the floor or the Speaker,
but, on the contrary, with shouts of
uprearious laughter and applause
as a particularly vindictivc thrust
or damaging allusion fell from the
lips of the honorable blackguards
in the gladiatorial arena. AS usual,
this bcar-garden performance was
introduced under the cloak of a per-
sonal explanation. In view of the
fact that this Legislative "priyilegc"
is often made to serve as the oppor-
tunity for such scandalous scenes as
this, it is well to inquire whether
some modification or restriction Of
the same is not demanded, in the
interest Of public morals and the
good reputation Of our representa-
tive government. There is one he
roic remedy which we doubt not
that decent people of all parts void
see applied with the utmost compla-
cency, and that is the summary ex-
pulsion Of the member or members
who thus, not always disgrace them
selves for that is generally impossi-
Bile, but bring reproach upon their
constituents, and outrage the deem
cy of the body of which they are a
part. If the voters of the Essex
district in Massachusetts, the sec
ond district in Illinois and the
seventh in Kentucky are willing to
be represented by men having the
manners Of DULLES rather than those
of gentlemen, the House should
have enough regard for its own
dignity, to embrace the first oppor-
tunity to rid itself of the disreputa-
BILE element.

TIE Dubuque Times charges d.
\. Mahony with an attempt to in
duce the Board of Supervisors of
Dubuque county to allow him $4,000
for services as joint trustee to re-
ccivc and keep certain bonds be-
longing to the county. lnasmuch
as the arduous duties of Mahony's
trusteeship consisted in signing his
name to the joint receipt and de-
posting the bonds in the bank,
where they were kept without risk
to him, the Times regards his claim
as rather cool. "Dinnis" acknowl-
edges the soft impeachment by
making no rerly,or attempt to de-
fend himself. Doubtless if defeated
in the scheme it will add another to
his chapter of evidences that the
country is going to the dogs.

Acknowledges the Corn.

One of the Chicago papers thus
gracefully comedies the scepter of
Corn to Iowa.
4 gold mine i'll Iowa! Thank
God it is ccgetd5le gold and vulgarly
called corn mine. Thank God
because it is a true proverbs: "a
gold mine will make you poor, a
silver mine comfortable, and Il coal
rich" But a corn mine is worth
them all. We ought to annex San
Domingo, because it gave Indian
corn to Columbus, and through him
to the world. All the world south
of Alaska now raises corn. How
then is corn pre-eminently the gold
mine of Iowa? Illinois and Missouri
each raises more than she of that
golden grain.
Yet Iowa raises more propor-
tionately than either ofthese States,
or than any other The bushels
last year were: In Illinois, 12l,-
500, 900; in Missouri, S0,500,ooo; in
Iowa, $500, 900. But Illinois was
then the fourth, and Missouri the
fifth state in population, while Iowa
stood twelfth. Hence the number
of bushels to each inhabitant were:
In Illinois, AZ; in Missouri, AS; in
Iowa, SIS. AS these three States
yield two tifths of the corn product
of the Union, Iowa is clearly the
banner State for hominy.-This fact
is the secret Of her growth. Her
percentage Of increase during the
last decade was 1916, that oflllinols
was 4s.4, and that of Missouri 45.1.
The reason is that corn means
cheap food for man and beast. 1t
means that cattle and hogs can be
raised to greater advantage than IS
possible in any non-corngrowlng
region except in Western Nebraska,
where call flesh is grass" and where
they need neither grain, hay, salt,
nor shelter. Every bushel OF I'M
,.i,,shhea corn 10 ali iowa stock deal
er means five pounds of beef and as
many of pork. No wonder, then,
that, during the last week of 1870,
the cars bringing Iowa stock into
Chicago on a single line-thc Chica-
go, Burlington and Quincy-amoun-
ted to ISL more than in the cores
ponding week Of the year previous.
Every State has its superiorities;
but, regarding the great trinity Of
hominy, herds and hogs, her sisters
must yield the palm to Iowa: Cali
fornia is at her wits end where to
get bags for holding her wheat.
Iowa will never lack corn sacks so
long as she has hog skin and OK
hide. Rebel as we may against the
inevitable, we must at length sac
knowledge the corn"

For LIEUT.. GovERNoI.-Ilon. G.
G. Bennett of Washington, is au-
thoritatively announced us candi-
date before the Republican State
Convention for Lieutenant Cover
nor. His qualifications for the
place are well known personally to
the members Of the Twelfth and
Thirteenth General Assemblies, he
having been during that time a
Senator from Washington county,
and President of the Senate pro tenn.
1t is enough here to say that he has
every requisite qualification for the
position, including ample experien-
&c and fine personal appearance.
As a citizen, soldier and a Repub-
lican, his standing is also Of the
highest character. II the Republi-
can Convention should select Col.
Bennett for the second place on it's

all respects one of the very best
that could be made. We speak thus
cordially of him because We know

CHICAGO. April "a, 1871.

CHICAGO, April "a, 1871.
EDITOR BULLET1N:-Your Journal
being laid upon the table of the IL
linois Humane Society, suggests to
the friends engaged in that work
that perhaps your columns may be
a medium through which portion
Of the public mind in the great
West may be reached, upon the
question which is slowly but surely
becoming one of earncstinquiry and
deep interest in many parts Of our
country.
The question is: What shall we
do for the speechless creatures
which, having no Peers in the
councils of men to represent them,
have been sadly neglected, for, as
was said by one who during the lat
ter years of his life did much for
the cause we represent: "While
there is no provision for the afflicted
ed of our own species, how little has
yet been done for the patient, speech
less servants whose lives are de-
voted to u.s.
The profit and the pleasure which
mankind derives from inferior crea-
lures is willingly accepted, and with
the humane a just and kindly return
is given them, in the mercitul treat
ment they receive, but there are too
many among us who thoughtlessly,
and some heartlessly, abuse the
dumb animals that faithfully serve
them.
We have, during the past few
months, had two or three cases re-
ported at this office, of horses which,
having become useless to their
masters, were turned out to starve
and die. A society should be form
ed in every town to prevent the ter
rible cruelties which transpire on ev-
cry side of US. Wherever these So
cictics have been formed and means
furnished to carry on the work, a
very perceptible change is soon dis
covered in the more considerate
treatment of the beasts of burden,
and other creatures under mans
care.
What the society here is endeav-
oring to do is in 4 somewhat con
densed form, shown in the leaflet
enclosed, but the people here are
not yet awakened as we hope they
will come to be. We want an in
crease of members, we need our cof-
ters replenished, and thus strength
cned we hope in faith and patience
to labor for the accomplishment OF
great and good work, not only to
better the condition of the brute
creation but that 4 blessing through
this medium may come to some Of
our fellow creatures, those who
have not yet learned that "The mer-
ciful man is merciful to his beast"

The McGrcgor Post Office.

The Elkader Journal of last week
contains an article upon the late
change of Postmasters at McGregor,
which, whatever may be the merits
of the case at issue, is so grossly
unjust in it's insinuations against
Messrs. Allison and Donnan, as to
indicate plainly that it was written
without deliberation or the exercise
of good judgment. 1t charges MIR.
Donnan with having been guilty of
a coup d'etat in recommending the
removal of Tompkins, and proceeds
in the following strain:
believing that he could make himself
popular by the removal Of Mr.. Tompkins
from the Post Office at MeGrcgor, and
thereby enhance Col Allison's prospect
for the Senate, he strikes at the man who
has helped him, helped Allison and help
ed the cause of Republicanism as much
as any man in Northern Iowa. We look
upon it as an unkind, ungratcful act, and
instead of benetitting either Mr.. Allison
or Mr.. Donnan, it will react upon them.
Let it be known that the fight against
Tompkins two years ago was not against
him but Allison, and it is Allison they are
after now, and through his friend Don
nan, he has caught at the bait and-got
caught"
Let us first dispose Of Mr.. ALI
sons alleged connection with this
matter. Fortunately we are able to
do so summarily. We have it from
Mr.. Allison's lips that the only man.
ner in which he, remotely or other
wise, sought to influence the dis
posal of the McGrcgor post Office
was the insertion of q few lines in
letter to Mr.. Donnan, written in
regard to other matters, advising
him not to make a change in the
McGrcgor post office. Now if, as
alleged by the Journal, the point to
be gained by the removal of Mr..
Tompkins was the enhancement of
Mr.. Allison's prospects for the
Senate, why did that gentleman add
wise against it, and why was it per-
sisted in contrary to such advice?
Perhaps the Journal can tell us.
As for Mr.. Domains part in the
transaction, the Journals insinua-
tons of selfish or unworthy motives
are wholly gratuitous. Mr.. Don
nan will undoubtedly be willing to
assume nearly if not quite all of the
responsibility for the removal Of
Tompkins outside of that resting
upon the Republicans of McGregor,
and we apprehend will not find it
difficult to show ample warrant for
his action.
1t is not our province 10 express
an opinion whether such removal
was wise or unwise; neither to we
take exception to our friend Ell
boeck's rather gushing eulogy upon
Mr.. Tompkins, but we do protest
against such vague, reckless and
Incorporate attacks upon motives
as that in his paper last week. To
jump at conclusions in this way and
to impute improper designs and mo-
tiycs to actions which do not coin
eide with our desires is not only
unjust but excessively foolish. The
Journal, usually fair and candid,
has, in this matter, suffered its feel
ings to becloud its Judgment, and
misled its readers with insinuations
which it will find it impossible to
resolve into facts.

Locality Again.

The Muscatinc Journal, published
in town which has candidate for
;Gosernor, and in section of the
State which is not popularity sup
posed to have been cruelty neglect
ed heretofore in the dispensation of
State offices, gets con its ear" as
the boys say, over the locality ques-
sion. The immediate provocation
of the Jouuaps Indignation is an
article in some northern paper, in
which mention is made Of a report
ed arrangement between Col. Car
. penter and Col. Scott by virtue Of
which the Sixth District is to be a
unit in the State Convention on 4
candidate for Governor. At this
the Journal flares up and inquiries:
"Whcn did the Sixth District ac-
quire the exclusive right and priv
ilege to present to the State Con
vcntion candidate for Governor"
and adds:
ut will be good thing for mediocre
ty when cmoluments go by locality and
not by merit If single Congressional
District must have its turn at gubcrna-
tOrial honors, SO must a county, a town.
ship, q family and an Individual. What
. glorious privilege is this! Why, the
xercst bumbkin in the land, or the mean
est rogue out of the penitentiary, if he
lives long enough, will one day be Gov
crnor, under this bcnefcent rule!"
AS a specimen of anti-locality
logic the above is not inferior to
the best efforts of that Nestor of
cosmopolitan journals, the Davenport
Gazette. The argument is not nov
el or candid, but it would have
probably served its purpose as a
plausible argument against the can
didate of the Sixth District had not
the Journal gone to work in the
next paragraph and knocked it all
to flinders by very cordially and
unrescrvcdly according to Messrs.
Carpenter and Scott the possession
of the Jeffcrsonian qualifications of
honesty, capability, and merit.
Having acknowledged this, what
relevancy has the Jornaps diatribe
oyer the locality issue? Does it mean
70 intimate that it is weakness
in these honest, capable, and mer-
itorious candidates that they come
from a section Of the State which
has not heretofore absorbed nearly
all the Offices? We can see no other
point than this in it's article, and
thus it is itself convicted of en-
,,loying the most fragrant and impu-
dent phase of the locality argument.
1t accords to the candidates of the
Sixth District the very highest
qualifications and yet demurs to the
presentation of their claims to the
State Convention. 1t is true that it
qualities it's protest by the words
exclusive right" but as the Sixth
District does not claim the exclu-
sivc right to namo a candidate for
Governor the distinction is without
nOint. ts7s afa

NEW ORLEANS is threatened with
an inundation. The waters of the
Mississippi have broken through
the levecs at several points, above
and below the city, and are pouring
their irresistible floods all over the
interior country. The largest ere
vase is at Bonnet Care, some
distance above the city. Here the
great river rushcs through an open
ing 700 feet wide and SO feet deep,
blowing Il channel far into the va
cant lands dcfying all efforts to stop
it. AT last accounts the smaller
crevasscs were stopped and the
river falling.
