CONGRESS- .SOLENNL,Y CONDEMNED

s CONGKE.SS SDlEM My CONI)EMNE).
A numerous meeting Of tho Merchants, Traders
and other citizens Of New Io,k, convened 1T the
Exchange Friday afternoon, To condemn Congress
for negcc,ng their most important business. The
meeting addressed by Hugh Maxwell and Hiram
Kechum gentlemen whose opinions adopted with
care and deliberations and expressed with moderation
and yet boldness.
We believe, with Mr. Kctchum, that our Repre-
scntativcs in Congress are discussing who shall be
the next President, and inaItentye 10 their du
ties and we concur fully with Mr.. Maxwell that the
voice Of the People should thunder in their ears that
they were sent to w Washington to make laws and not
to make Presidents
When, for instance did the People of New Jersey
authorize their Representatives to determine who
shall be their candidate for the next Presidency and
if they should learn that they assuming presum
ing to act in this respect for their constituents and
harness New Jersey to the of this asplrant that
would they not rebuke them sterny for their AFRO
gance, well as for their neglect of their unques
tIonable duties Far be it from to say that our
representatives thus guilty. We believe that some
of them deplore the faulty of Congress- We have sup
posed the case, merely to illus rate the great AFRO
gance, and gross departure from their proper sphere,
of which members of Congress guilty, when they
undertake 10 make Presidents instead if laws
And from numerous public and private sources of
information, we learn that Congress is at this time
almost wholly engrossed in the maneuvrins of fac
TONS with reference to the succession; and that il is
not admitted that the faith and credit of the Govern
ment must DE protected, and good currency estab-
lshed but that it is assumed by some that il is for
the interest of their faction that the Government
should continue to be embarrassed and its faith and
credit depressed, and the currency deranged lncrc-
dible it would seem desperately wicked as it GER
tainly is-some are actually egislating to produce
national evil and to aggregate, or--f the late Adm
nistraon left Eothing to be accomplished in that
wayto prolong the national caamitics in the hope
that they may throw the responsibility OF this upon
those on whose ruin they expect 10 rise And there
fore is, tat we already hear il alleged that the re-
Ponsibhiy docs not rest upon Congress but upon the
President Let not these schcmers imagine that the
people will be easily deceived.
The responsibility of some past dced4-of vetoing
two unwse bank bills-does rest upon the President
but the responsibility of he present neglect Of the
public interests, and nattenton to the national en-
barrassmcnts, rests on the Wing majority in Con-
gress, and they must acqu themselves of by faith
ful action or bear it, We say this with reluctance
and modification. We know that many will tell us
friendly eye could never see such faults"
We reply
"a fatterers would not, though they do appear"

1t is to be regretted that in the present state OF
things when the country is bleeding at every pore
that our members OF Congress cannot ste their par
ty feelings, lay aside their personal ambition and sell
fish schemes, and Danish all preudces and sectional
jeaousies, and unite in the spirit Of patriotism in de-
vsing and adopting measures Of relief 1t time now
for any to adhere with infexible tenacity to his
own opinion questions of expediency. If others
will not adopt the measures which he deems best let
him unite with them in deyising the best that can be
obtained. Much better do that than do nothing
He will then satisfy his conscience aud viii stand
acquitted before his constituents,
The Government is laborng under great enbar-
rassments, and every branch OF business and industry
is angusng under the fatal effects of the competl.
ton OF the pauper labor Of Europe and a derauged
currency, while Congress sits collaborating in cold
debates. The people have right TO expect that
their servants IN Congress will speedily take mea-
sures to restore 10 them sound national currency
They care not what the measure may be called, whe-
Their it be bank, fiscal agent eXchequer or by any
other name.-9bore all, should they expect Congress
to provide revenue to support the Government and
productions By these nicals and by other can e.
ensvc and permanent relief be obtained for the co.
TRY. So long as foreign nations are allowed to no
nopolile the business Of importing, and 10 Hood tlf
country with their productions postratng our manu-
factures destroying our home market and drlnrz
the country of specie and thus Gripping our banks
shall be sub ct to national disgrace and colonial
vassaage

To act on these subjects, but they will dr7tR

tire making besides, into their own hands
