CoSaREss.-The session Of Congress is at
lns, brought to close. Its last hours pro-
duccd nothing to redeem the character which
il lost OF its very commencement, and on
each successive day of its existence. 1t
came to a close, leaving much important bu-
siness unfinished. Much business which
had been brought to maturity in one house,
became useless from not being acted on in
the other, aud some important measures
among which are the bill for preventing frauds
on the revenue, and that for extending the
charters Of the banks Of the District, were
los, after having received the sanction of
both Houses 10 their principal provisions, for
want OF concurrence in the details. We
fear that the country will suffer for want o
better provision, in many departments Of the
government.
Many ofihc members arrived yesterday in
the steamboat trains from New York. They
are hnppy we doubt not, to be released from
their long and arduous term of duty. We d,

has been proracted to so late period Of tn,

1t is scarcely worth while to occupy
much space in giving the details of the
Louisiana Election. The entire results
with the exception Of two parishes, are
given in the New Orleans papers of the
l8th,-and are indeed most gratifying
not only to the Wings of Louisiana, /,
but to the Wings of the whole Union.
Being the first blow which is to pros
trate the present administration, it may
be regarded as aeproud triumph Of the
cause Of constitutional reform"
The Wing candidate in the first dis
trict is elected by majority of 2042-
q gain Of 4 1876 since the election in 1888,
and do. of 2027 since 1896.
Tho election in the second district
has resulted in the choice Of the Loco
candidate by majority of I3. THIS
result is great gain to the Wings com
pared with former elections, where a
fair test Of the strength Of parties was
presented.
The Wing candidate in the third dis
trict was 285 ahead, and two parishes
to be heard from, which il is believed
would not materially reduce his ma
jority.
The Legislature consists of Wings,
Q Locos in the Senate, and 81 Wings
and % Locos in the Housc--majority
in joint ballot 3-'enough for all prac-
tical purposes"
There were but about fifteen thou
sand votes polled in the State, Of which
the Wings received over two thousand
majority. "This (says the New York
Commercial Advertiser, is by far the
most decided majority ever given in the
State to any party, and will insure the
electoral vote to HARRISON in the
fall, without a struggle"
The Boston Atlas of yesterday, says
that Moore is elected in the third dis
trict by 300 majority-all the towns
having been heard from.

A certain knight Of the gallipot en-
quires in the (yesterdsy's) Republican
whether Commodore Perry or Genera
Harrison gained the victory on Lake
Erie' That gentleman's intellect seems
to be SO completely obfuscated, that he
cannot see how the friends of Perry
should accord to Harrison the same
praise that Perry did himself without
plucking the laurels from the Commo-
dore's brow. The assistance rendered
by General Harrison was duly appreci-
atcd and gratefully acknowledged by
Commodore Perry. whose testimony
alone outweighs the thousand ISLANDERS
that are daily concocted by the trem-
bling slaves Of Martin Van Buren,
We have no doubt that in the opinion
of the querist, the honor Of the victory
OH Lake Erie belongs to neither Porry
nor Harrison, but to Jesse ID. Elliott
the jack ass and figure head hero, and
pensioned favorite Of our present chief.
