Mr. ROUSSEA U. No, sir; I cannot be interrupted now. I wish to say that when a memor can so far depart from what everybody believes he ought to know, and does know is the truth, it is a degradation, not to his State, for he cannot dearade her, but to himself. Iowa is not to be degraded by anyone or even by all of her members on this floor. She is a gal lant State, and I know what her people are. Mr. Speaker, this Congress must soon adj ourn, and when it does we will submit the question which this Congress has failed to set teto the people of the U.S. I have no doubt oft e result of that submission. I do not believe that the Union men of this nation will either see this Government go to pieces or see a reunion obstructed or procrastinated. I think they believe that peace means something; that it does not mean war at the ballot box, war in the churches, war in social life, but that they believe that peace will be promoted by the restoration of the Union. I believe the soldiers of this nation will take care of the Government they have saved, and, for one, I will join in an up eal to them to come forward and maintain that Government and take care of it now, as they did in the days of the rebellion. The soldiers of this country will not turn a deaf ear to those who desire to save the Government from every enemy. We will up cal to them as we did in time of dangeran of death, and the will res and as they did then, when they ought with 1 but one purpose on earth, and that was to save the Government. And you may husband all your powers of denunciation, all your sources of irritation; you may appeal to all the bad feelings and passions, because they have stood you in good stead heretofore. If ever you yield for, one moment, if you will only allow it, the lately bel ligerent sections will embrace and be friends. It Congress will but stand aside, the contending factions will come together and restore the Union. All has been done but one, thing, namely, the admission of representatives from the States lately in rebellion; and Congress will not do that, but upon a hearing the people will direct this to be one, and then this war will not have beemfought in vain.
