The Hawkeye broadly asserts that a
IS'borgain was effected in Iowa City" at the
recent democratic convention, by which
the opposition of those opposed to the nom-
Iination Of Gen. Dodge awas sold and bar
tered away for the promises Of Offices to
their leaders, a more unfounded and
funblushing falsehood was never uttered
never conceived. There does not exist the
slightest groundwork for even such sup
.position among sensible men. The fact
that some whose names had been men,
toned in connexion with the Delegacy, to-
'gether with those who favored their pre-
tensions, cordially united in sustaining
the nomination Of Gen. Dodge, after it be-
come apparent such nomination was de-
.creed BY very large majority Of the peo-
pie, may seem unaccountable to those who
cannot comprehend how disinterested
and patriotic act may be performed, but it
will be mystery to such only. Demo-,
Gratis know how to account for these
things, if wings do not. As the conven-
;tion was constituted there was no necessity
for bargaining, for five sixths Of the mem-
,bers came prepared to support Gen.


Dodge; but had it been otherwise-had the
nomination fallen upon any other gentle


man-our opponents would have found our


party just - united and harmonious as it Is


now, and they would have been just as


sure Of suffering defeat and discontinue.
