DIsGRACEFUL drunkenness mark
ed the last hours of the present SEES
sion of Congress. 1t is difficult to
avoid these scenes. We have fire.
quently reflected upon the subject to
divinesome means to obviate the hur-
ny, confusion and all night sessions OF
legislative bodies, and we have found
it next to impossible to find any plan
that will will effect the object. There
is one thing that superlfuman efforts
ought to be put forth to accomplish,
at all events, and that is to STOP
drunkenness. We favor the strin-
gent enforcement of a rule that would
expel a member of any Legislative
body in case Of drunkenness. They
ought to be ,expelled with the same
unfinching severity that a minister
should be expelled for like 0ffense.

WE publish elsewhere another of
the State Registers scandalous attacks
upon us. We do this that our readers
may have the length and breadth of
that papers scurrility and wanton-
ness. Our readers will call to mind
if they can, the Jesuitical stabs and
threats the COURIER has made upon
our fellow-citizen, Mr.. Stiles. Please
to look up this matter and see if the
Register has not made this all out of
whole cloth, without a shadow of
foundation for it. Such charges may
do very well for the Registers readers
who have not seen a line from the
COURIER in that papers columns, but
SO far as the readers of the COURIER
are concerned, who have both sides to
read, the Register man only writes
himself down wanton falsifier.
The Register says Mr.. Stiles did not
inspire its villainous attacks. Who
said he did? We agree with the Beg
lister that the food of billingsgate
poured upon us by that institution
had its inspiration within the four
walls of that concern. The Register
says they got no information from
Mr.. Stiles direct. Who said they did?
There is an impersonal editor or two
about Des Moines, of the Register con-
Germ, and if that paper don't square
ly and plumply falsify, it does it by
suppressing the honest part of state
ment, and SO it says 1--WE get nothing
from Mr.. Stiles, &C." Says the Reg-
lister:
ut was the spectacle of so good and
strong man as Mr.. Stiles being con
tinuaily and most meanIy misrepre
scented by the COURIER, that lead us t.
speak out in meeting as we did"
In the discussion held between us
the Register said we "frOze out Mr.
Stiles by our silence" This was tn
entire charge contained i'm the Registe,
articles when it "spoke out in meet
ing" So it was by our silence We
misrepresented Mr.. Stiles. We will
again offer the Register $50 if it will
find in the COURIER any misrepre-
rentation of Mr.. Stiles, a single line
Or word, that could have induced the
Register ito speak out in meeting"
We do this at the risk of again being
deaominated jockey and gambler
by that paper. In addition to trying
to run the Sixth Congressional dis
trict the Register demands that it shall
run the COURIER, and say when,
where and how it shall peddle out its
fulsome adulations, according to the

THE President cannot fail to per-
ceive that the republicans of Iowa take
issue with him in his policy views,
strongly and pointedly. They say in
unmistakable language that his idea
that the rebellion was only a strug-
gle between Greeks" with simply Il
preponderance in number on the I'M
ion side; that it was no particular
credit to one side or discredit to the
other that "the war turned out as it
did"-is all wrong, vitality wrong, and
indeed, an insult to the good sense of
good patriots and good people. The
republicans of Iowa further say that
any man who takes such a view will
be overwhelmed with disaster. There
cannot be the least doubt of it. To
surrender the truism, that the defend
ers of the Union were right, is to sur
render point so vital, that the Union
becomes rope of sand upon its prac-
teal adoption; it is to surrender the
grand fact that it is duty to be a pa
triot. ..
| Should another revolution ever oc.
cur and the idea of the President OBJ.

credit or discredit which side the citi

dead, and the nation left to drift, rud
derless i'm the midst of the storm.
