In tiie Senate of tho United States on
tlio !lth of May, 1808, debato ni-ose upon
a resolution submitted by Senator Slier,
man, directing the-Secretary of War to
communicate copies of all ollkial reports
relative to the battlo of Pittsburg Land
ing. Among llioso engaging lu the ills
eussion was Senator Harlan, of Iowa,
whoso remarks, presented below, aro
taken from the Congressional Cllotic,
(Second Session Thirty-seventh Con
giess, 1'ar .'I, pago-i 7, 0:l(!-:U):
Mr. llAin.AN Mr. President, so far
ns tho reniiirksoftbeSciintorfrom Ohio
may havu been intended to defend the
troops of that State from any unjust as
pension, I havo not a word to say.
i'licy were well timed, and It was pro
per supject for thu eonslder.it ion of the
Seti'ite, as their courage had been called
In question, as it seem , by a Senator
from another State. Hut that part of
his speech which may havu been in
tended to bolster up the reputation of
General Grant I think may linvu an in
jurious ciTect In the future, and beneo I
list! to repudiate every word ho ha
said that many havo that tendency.
1'rom all I can learn on tho subject, I do
not think General Grant Is (It to com
mand a great army In tho field. Iowa
hail eleven regiments In thu Hold at the
battle of Pittsburg Landing. Ho can
never make any of tho-o men bellove
that General Grant Is lit to command. I
havo seen many of them, havo con vers
ed with tho olllcers and privates, ami
they believu that two short extracts
fiom a letter written by 11 gentleman of
my Slate, who Is now the presiding
uilge of 0110 of tho district courts, and
who spent several days on the battle
Held Immediately alter Hie conclusion
of the battle. Husavs:
I tilt ing the whole timo 1 was with the
army 1 availed myself of every mums
to g.iin cornel Information its to the
ba'tle nnd all I lii ilelall-connected witli
It. No one cm get the truth by read
ing of the newsiiaiii'i- eol ivsiioiiileni-i' m
well as by eniiver-atlnn ullh the olll
cers ami soldier-, who weie in thu light.
There i-. no ti-e in trying to di-guNe or
covering the fact that our arniv mis
badly surprised 011 Sunday mornlm?.
I'p to thu time that General Grant as
sumed enniniand at Pltl-burg Landing,
General Sherman was lu eommand.and
kept I'lsplckelsof liil'antiy and cavalry
out in front of Ills lines for thrco or four
mile-, out after Grant arrived this was
entirely neglected, and, notwithstand
ing scouts, deserters from tho enemv.
mil citizens reported to General Grant,
through tho proper olllcers, that thu
main body of the enemy wc re approach
ing our lines, he indignantly si'orned
the iile.i of an attack, saying that Gene
rals .bihtison and licaui-ej rani were not
d fools enough to attach us hero.'"
On Saturday night before the battle the
reble army was moved up so close to
our front Hues that, as a rebel prisoner
informed me, they could hear the sol
diers talking in their camps. At day
light the enemy commenced thu attack
with not less than snventy-Ilvo thous
and men. They rushed into some of
our camps beforooursiildlers had tlmu
to bill into lino of battle, anil whllo
many of 0111 olllcers were asleep.
In the concluding part of the letter, ho
ays:
Although our victory on Monday was
complete, and thu roblcs utterly routed,
yet It wa too dearly purchased. Thu
criminal carelessness, or something
worse, on thu part of General Grant,
whereby so many bravu soldiers were
slaughtered, admits of no palliation or
excuse. Newspapereorrespondcnts may
wntu as they please, but tliu united
voice of every soldier In Grant's army
condemns uuu, and it is now time that
thu Government should do likewise.
From all I can learn from thu troops
trom lov.a who participated in this bat
tle, with whom I havu conversed, both
olllcers and men, thls.ls but an express-
ion of a conviction made on tlio minds
of all of them. The Iowa troops have
been in thu battlu lepeatidly under
command of General Grant; they havu
no conlldeuie lu his capacity and lltness
for the high position be now holds.
They legaul hlui as tho author of the
useless slaughter of many hundred of
their brave comrade in nrnis. It is not
necessary, nor is It right, to compel
them to .-l i ve under him. 'I ho speech

ticed, Induce those in authority t o con -

General Grant, havo never met hlui at
any lime, and could, therefore, havo no
personal grief to redress. Nor have I
any complaint to mako of tho manner
lu which hu or othur generals have
mentioned thu conduct of thu Iowa
troops In thu Upld. As far us 1 hnvo
noticed, Jusflcn has been dono them by
their commanding generals "d by tho

tier In which their neighbors (.poke of
them, I request tho Secretary to read
tliu following paragraph from a leading
journal published In the City of St
Louis:
Thu Secretary read, ni follows :
Tut; Gam.ant Iowans. Iowa is a
young State, but It is tho homo of thu
heroes. With tho present war sho lias
begun 11 war history that yields in
splendor nnd honor to that of no Stuto
In thu Union and no country on tho
globe. Her soil is tliu birth-place of n
now chlvairy,shc lias beconiotho moth
or of a now rnco of heroes. Her soldiers
boast little, and sho has no Industrious
pcnny-n-IIncr lo boast for them. Her
boldieis aro us modest ns they are brave.
They aro not flerco braggarts. They
are as gentle nnd tractable ns children.
lint when tho storm of blood begins
they aru tho guiding and thu govern
ing heroes of tho tempest. Where tho
harvest of death Is to be reaped, they
uro tlio foremost of tliu reapers. Whero
a perilous assault Is to bo made, some
how or oilier there Is always an Iowa
regiment, or tho wasted shadow of an
lowu regiment, to lead it. It was so at
Wllson'rt Creek ; It was no at llolmout :
It was so at Kort Donclton ; It was so at
Shlloh ; It will over bo ho throughout
the war. AH our Western troops havo
been heroes, but thu Iowa troops havo
been heroes among heroes. Tho Iowa
First, Iowa Second, Iowa fourth, nnd
Iowa Seventh aro bodies of men who
would havo given an additional lustre
oven to Thermopyhe, Jliuathon, Atis
terlltz, or Wagrani, nnd all Americans
may bo proud of Iowa. SI. J.outs Sews.
Tho President pro tempore The
Chair thinks it proper to remind the
Senator that debntu on tho resolution
is continued only by tliu unanimous,
consent of thu Senate, to tho exclusion
of tho special order; but tho debate
will bo allowed to continue until some
member shall call for tho special order
of the day. Tho Senator from Iowa
will proceod.
Mr. Harlan I shall detain tho Sena
tor for hut a moment longer. General
1 1 :il leek, in all official communlculh ns
addressed to tlio Adjutant-General of
tho Statu of Iowa, has mentioned the
Iowa troops nt the battlu before Kort
nnrml.sim ns "tliii lira vosr nf I liolirn v..." '
Nor do I know that General Grant or
any othergutierul, has ever withheld just
commendation. I therefore leneal that
I have no personal gtius'aucu lo redress
for myself or for tho troops of my Statu.
And I would havo remained silent on
tills subject in tho Senate, If the speech
of thu Senator from Ohio had not iintile
U necessary for mo to speak ; for I do
not deem tho Scnato Chamber tho prop
er placo for criticisms on tho conduct of
a general in tho field. I think it much
better to presont our personal con
victions' in relation to tho character of
our generals to thu Secretary of War
and to President. For myself, I uni
formly pursuo this course, aud regret
that it bus, in my Judgment, become
necccssary to depart from it in this case.
l!ut, sir, it is often as dangerous and ns
wicked to praisothe unworthy and In
competent as to detract from the meri
torious. If my convictions uru correct
ll would bo 11 crime for mo to remain
silent, and biill'er intluetices to oiiglunte
lu tho Seuutc Chamber which may re
sult in restoring a general to an actlvo
command whom I, nml thu people in
part leprcsent, deem unworthy of such
a trust. Iowa Inn scut to the Held about
twenty thousand troops. They havo
behaved 1 think, well on every battle
Held where they have appearid. As
far as 1 know, no Iowa regiment has
ever faltered in tho discharge of duty,
however perilous. Their numbers havu
been reduced by the causalities of thu
Held and camp nearly ono-fourlh. They
give their lives with firmness to aid in
restoring tho supremacy of tlio laws,
Hut, sir, they believe.und I believu that
u large per cent, of this lo-s was Useless,
ami is Justly attributable to tho can
lossncss, or inability of General Grant.
And hu shall not with my consent, bu
continued in command. There, Is
nothing in his antecedents to Justify a
further trial of his military skill. At
Hclliiotit hu committed an egregious
and military blunder, which resulted

Tm: Medical nnd Surgleid lteportcr,
speaking of thu alleged vases of snakes
mid other reptiles living lu thustomnch
of human beings, mys:
Such stories nre thu consummation of
folly, and he; must be tit i Ill-educated
doctor (If educated ut all) who could
send forth such a farrago of nonsense.
That it very small reptile may crawl In
to a child's mouth may bo true; but
that any animal nut brod In tlu human
stomach, could 11 vo thero nny length of
time, Is so utterly nt variance with ull
tho laws of physiology nnd digestion,
that none but Ignoramuses over credit
them. Wo havu somu pious frauds to
glvo on'this subject but not now.
Physicians know that thero aru cur
tain ento.a that exists in tlio human
organism, and often cause distressing
symptoms and continued Ill-health.
Hut that a "snake," or u toad, or other
reptile could maintain an existence in
the stomach for two hours, much less
two years, is a fiction that our profes
sion should loso no opportunity tocom
bat. Cases wero reptiles aru supposed
to exist In tho stomach nre most likely
of n historical character, and tho con
tortions of tho reptile, Its "gnawing,"
nnd Its violent cirorts to escape from Its
prison houso nro ull imaginary.
Wo onco had n patient, a very respec-
tabio lady, who fancied that sho had a
snnko in her throat that was trying to
escape. Sho could feel It with her fin
ger! Would open her mouth and won
der that wo could not seo it and pluck
It out. Sho forwnrncd us that It wns
of no uso to try to convlnco her that
thero wns nothing there, for sho knew
better. Hnd turned away soveral phy
sicians because they would not bcliovo
her. There wns nothing left but a pre
scribe something. Wo succeeded in
course of time, In relieving her partial
ly, ut least, of tho irritation of tlio
throat, Imt sho insisted that our reme
dies wero bringing tliu reptile nwny
piecemeal !
We have heard of a case lu which tho
patient insisted that she hnd it toad in
her stomach. Her physician at last
admitted tho statement, und prepared
to relieve her inlnd.of thu toatl In this
way : Giving her an emetic, hu await
ed its operation; In his ofikiousness,
in supporting her head while sbu vom
Ited, lie managed to cover her eyes
whllo he adroitly threw u live toad in
to the vessel. It was enough, the pa
tient, with n "I told you so," wns cured
from that hour.
Such u "pious fraud" was perhaps
xeusable under thu circumstances ; but
It is always better, and much more In a
spirit ot our calling, if vu can euro tho
hall ucliuition by removing tliu ill-heal th
that causes it.

The Now York Observer tells of a
clergyman whoso horso died of botts.
Somu of tho worms wero put Into spir
its of turpentlno and other fluids com
monly iatiil to vermin, but they wero
not at all etl'ected. They wero then put
into tlio Jttlcu of common potatoes, and
died instantly. Another horso in tho
neighborhood was suH'erlng severely
from botts, when n quart of potato juice
was poured down ids throat, which
so, m relieved him of his pain, and it
continuance of tho treatment ell'ected u
permanent cure.

HOW TO MaKI! liAllOU Pl.KASANT.
-Whatever is wortli doing is worth do
ing well. No work can bo dono very
well without n cheerful spirit, and It Is
tho manifest duty of both employer and
employed to cultivate thu largest
amount of cheerfulness, and mako it
apparent In their business, It Is some
times, perhaps, difficult to avoid sullen-
ness, hut us Its presence damages tho
workshop nnd tho counting room, tho
store and tho factory, nutl as It Is conse
quently a dead loss to those who par
take of It, the best plan Is for a limn to
resolve what he wilt do, and then direct
ids energies towards Its necompllsli
meiit without regard to thu position of
.Smith, Jones, or lloblusou or nuy com
politer, Lot us take our prldu In our

wu hhould do or not. Opportunities for
placing ourselves In our proper position
will emtio soon enough without fretting

Truo Dignity.
Lorrv ends glvo dignity to tlio low
est officer. It Is, for Instance, nn hon
est, but you would cull It an honorable
occupation to pull an oar; yet If that
oar dips In n yeasty sen to Impel Hie
lifo-boat over mountain waves nnd
through roaring breakers, lie has strip
ped for the venture, nnd, hrcaklngnwny
from weeping wife nnd praying moth
er, nml clinging children, iias bravely
thrown himself into tha boat to pull
for yonder wreck, and pluck' his drown
ing brother from thu Jaws of death,
presents, ns from time to tlrno we catch
n glimpse of bint on tho crest of tho
foaming billow, n spectacle of grandeur
which would withdraw our eyes from
tlio presenco even of a queen, surround
ed with all thu blazo and glittering
pomp of royalty.
Tako another illustration, drawn
from yet humbler life. Some years ago
on a winter morning, two children
weru found frozou to death. They wero
sisters. Tho elder child bail tho youn
ger seated lu her lap, closely folded
within her lifeless nrins. Sho had strip
ped her own thinly clad form to protect
Its feeble life, nnd to warm tho Icy lin
gers, had tenderly placed Its littlo hands
In her own bosom ; nnd pitying men
nnd weeping women did stand nnd
gazo on tho two dead creatures, ns with
glassy eyes and stllfencd forms, they
reclined upon tho snow wreath thu
days of their wandering nnd mourning
ended, nnd heaven's own puro snow no
purer than that truo sister's love. They
wero orphans ; houseless, homeless beg
gars. Jiut not on that account bnu J
been there to gazo on that touching
group, would I have shed ono tear the
less, or felt tlio less deeply that It wns a
display of truo lovo and of human na
ture In Its least fallen nspect, which de
served to bo embalmed In poetry, and
sculptured in costly marble.
Yes, nnd however humble the Chris
tian's walk, or mean his occupation, It
matters not. Ho who lives for tho glo
ry of God has an end In view which
lends dignity to thu man and to his life.
Live, then, "looking unto Jesus," live
for nothing less nnd nothing lower thnn
God's glory ; nnd thesu ends will lend
grandeur to your life, and shed a holy,
heavenly lustru on your station, how
ever humblo it may be. Dr. Guthrie.
CiueilMLOCirrioN. At Cincinnati, it
few years since, nn unsophisticated dar
key wnlted upon ncertnin military gen
tleinnu with a bill of $19.50 for washing,
dono at the camp hospital, which, nfter
undergoing a rigorous scrutiny by tliu
officer, was returned with the following
explanation, which thu astonished son
of Ktliiopln listened to with nn equal
amount of wonder and perplexity :
"This bill," said tho military gentle
man, "will first havo to bo sont to tlio
Quartermaster Goncrnl'sat Washington,
nnd hu will report to the Adjt-Generai,
and ho will lay it before tlio Sec'y of
War for ids approval. Tho Adjutant
being satisfied, it will be sent to the
Auditor of Slate, who will npprovo of
it nnd send it to thu Secretary of the
Treasury, who will send it to tho U. S.
Treasurer, who will at onco dispatch an
order to thu Colli ctorof this port to pay
tliu bill."
Tho darkey relieved himself of long
drawn sigh. "Then, massa," hu re
marked, "dat last gcmblam you spoke
of, pays for tlio washing, does ho?"
"No," continued tlio officer, "ho will
hand it to thu quartermaster ; but as
thero Is no such officer hero nt present,
somu proper person must bo appointed
by the Secretary of Wnr, under tho di
rection of tlio President, and Ins his ap
pointment must bo upproved by tho
Sonate, Congress not being In session
now, tho commission ennnot bo issued
until nfter It meets. When this com
mission is received, tlio quartermaster
will show it to the collector; ho will pay
it, you giving your receipt."
Tho unfortunate negro first scratched
his head, then shook it, and finally
said :
"1 guess I'll hab to let ills washing
slide, but it am do hist job I does for
Uncle Sam, shuro!"
A Don Sronv. A gentleman posse.-,-id
of a noblo Newfoundland dog had
trained him to go to market with a
basketund a plecoof money to purcha-u
the morning steak. The money, with
a towol.was deposited in tho basket and
Howser with much dignity ami thought
fulness, would trot oil' to tho butcher's
st 11, mid tho man of beef, understand
ing tho arrangement, would take tho
money, deposit tho steak, and tho dog
would trot homo; Turning n corner ouo
morning on ids way from market, ho
caino upon two dogs fighting. Wltli
tho sumo feeling that will make tho
crowd of human dogs throng nbout a
prize-ring to see two other dogs pound
each other, Howser paused, and for a
stcoiid looked on ; then, excited by tho
contest, he dropped his basket and
" wont In." Ho whipped both, but
while so engaged a hungry hound fatolo
ills steak.
Howser picked up his basket ; tho loss
of weight told tho story. Ho stopped
and Investigated. Tho steak was gone,
nud tho poor d&g's worry was comical.
Ho looked In every direction for tho
lost meat, ull tho whllo half growling
and whining ns If talking to himself.
Somo men who saw tho affair and knew
thu dog, watched to soo what solution
Howser would mnko of the difficulty.
Tho poor fellow wns for a moment In
doubt, uml then, us If tin Idea hadstriick
hlui, ho set oil' for tho market ngnln.
Tlio littlo crowd followed him, They
saw him approach tho butcher's stall,
but instead of marching boldly up, he
stopped and looked wistfully at tho
meat. At lat when tho butcher's back
was turned for n second, ho seized the
largest steak on tho block, aud ran
homo with It us If tho dovll was after
him,
Tim open boost of tho Radicals that
they Intend to uso tho money of tho
Government to corrupt tho voters, is
not an idle ouo ; It is nothing moro or
less than what they havo always done
when In power.
