CONQUEST AND CONGRESS.

Mr. Polk is at the foot-lights Congress
is around him on the stage, sharing in Il play
of which the entire public is at this moment
the attentive audience. Commonly, this COM
pany Of great players enact the drama Of leg
slation TO a small auditory. Trusting to the
opposition to keep in check the party in power
the mass of the people quietly pursue their
callings, and care to know only the results OF
the conflicting politics, They know that, to
the sphere Of Congressional and official schcm-
ing, there is a central plane Of cxpedioncy
governed by public opinion, and While the
country is moral and enlightened, and its ru-
lors subjected to quick and easy removal, they
have no fear Of any very gross msmanage-
ment, by public servants, for lack Of close
Watching. The drawing up Of the curtain at
Washington, just now, however, disclose a
climax of striking events which interests alike
the political partlzan and the common observ-
er. In the background of the scene, the
movements of most gallant army are visible,
who, while the responsibility of the cause for
which they fight, rests on the official person
ages in front of the stage, are, at the same
time gratifying the secret tastes Of the vast
audience who watch them, and winning such
honor and respect for the country's yalor,
as will affect materially the future questions
of collision with foreign power. Policy and
right of the war out Of the question, the Ameri-
can army, at this moment, is the brilliant OBJ
iect of the worlds admiration. There has
been shown, by the collective force, a Spartan
band inyincibility; but, in every case where
there was a chance for individual distinction,
the ready hero has sprung to achieve it, and
it seems, more than any modern army eeer did,
a band of men, every one capable of daring
heroism if the opportunity will but serve.
What the people at home think of this par
ticular sort of the national g0-ahead-ism, is
seen plainly enough in the recent reception
OF Captain Walker in his northern trip. He
was beset with crowds whenever he put his
foot out of doors, The great guesser,Le Yer
rier,who has guessed world into our knowl-
edge, would have been less acuriosity. But
the army has scores and hundred Of such men,
and our bravery-loving people arc living up
for them all.
We repeat-Congress is playing its great
play, for this session, with con1uering army
for back ground, and a whole people for an
attentive audience; and we doubt whether
an other Congress is likely soon to be watch
ed with equal intensity Of interest. What
with the eloqucnce there, and the telegaphic

sleeps Macdonald Clark--the mad poet--he

and whose head, resting in the clouds, calmly
received the chaplet that death was weaving
with his immortality. And near by, the In

gathered at the base of her toni, which in the
language Of the poets, would seem the tears

The blight OF autumn had chafed the falling
leaves with FROST and the mantle of the trees
was gone. The harbinger of winter had been
there, and like the cold, brcathless occupants

Not the sound Of bird,or voice Of man broke
the monotony of the place-all was still
The commentary was a sad one and the
once admired shafts,and chisced emblems of
innocence, the torches in relieve, and the
thousand tinsel5 of pomp, were more revolt

HUMBLE LIFE. There is happiness in
humble life-who can doubt it? The man
who OWNS but a few acres of land and raises
an abundance to supply the necessary wants
OF his mily-can ask for no more. II he is
satisfied with his condition-and there are
thousands SO situated who are-no man is
more happy. No political movement disturbs
his repose-no speculation chascs the calm
serenity from his mind-no schisms in the
Church throw shadows beneath his golden sky.
His family is the world to him; his little lot
is all his care. Who sighs not for such life
of ca}mnoss and serenity? Amid the cares
and anXieties Of business, who would not ex-
change his prospects and his honors for the
reposc Of him who is contcntcd and happy on
his spot Of ground, far from the noise and bus

Something Strange

The suflcrings Of the unfortunate passengers
and crew Of that Inflated steamer during the
thirty-six hours preceding the final caias-
trophe, awakened universal sympathy, and
tears Of bitter regret have been shed over the
bodies of the lost. The Pulpit regarding the
event as full Of solemnity, has sought to de-
rive from it lessons of instruction and warn
ing for the living. Everybody sees and ac-
knowledges the propriety of these manifesto
tons of sorrow for the dead, and of condol-
cncc for those who have been called to mourn
the lose Of relatives or friends. No one duos-
tons the wisdom Of our religious teachers in
embracing the opportunity thus afforded to
their spiritual wants and necessities.
Now look at another picture Thousands
of our felow-men within the last six months
have been killed on the battle field; wives
have been made dependant widows and chill
dren hapless orphans, in a war waged for
the perpetuaton Of Slavery And yet
strange to say the mass of human suffering
thus occasioned, awakcns comparatively little
thought and calls forth little sympathy. We
shed the blood Of our fellow Creatures, calling
on God to aid us in the murderous work, and
shout exultingly over victories which carry
desolation and woe into thousands of families
Is it not strange that the same men who are
