THE PRINTING OF CoNGREss. 1t appears
from report made TO the House of Represen-
tatives, from the committee appointed to inves-
dgate the cost of printing public documents,
that, upon six jobs of work ordered to be done,
the public printers realized popfit of S9l,-
DAT IA! We are not surprised that editors who
are thus profusely compensated for political
services, insist upon continuing party contests
One victory makes them princely fOrtune.-
But this is an abuse which should not be tOle-
rated, nor would it be, were the printing to be
given to practical printers by contract. We
should be sorry to see any man connected with
the printing business deprived of a fair, or even
very liberal reward for his labors; but it is de-
cidedly wrong thus to squander the public mo-
ney for partizan purposes. The committee
propose to change the mode of having the pub
lie printing done, so as to allow certain per
centage upon the actual cost; by which mode
the printer would receive fair compensation,
proportioned to the amount of work done. We
have long been convinced, that the public
printing should be separated from the newspa-
per press and the exposition of the committee
more fully satisfies us of the correctness of our
opinion. At present the office of public printer
is the most valuable in the gift of the govern
ment, four years being sufficient to realize a
splendid fortune.

son, By The City Council Of the Monumental city,

Whereas The peace OF the civilized world has
been broken by the military authorities Of Mexico,
and the soil OF The United States has been invaded
by portion of her army; and whereas, these acts
OF defiance and outrage upon the United States,
have been preceded by systematic and long
continued course of faiihlessness, talsehood and
insoience, upon The part OF The government OF
Mexico towards this country; and whereas, il IS
the duly Of The General Government 10 extend lis

employed in cabinet making Of different kind.
Yesterdays Itmes
The last arrivals confirm the account OF The
los, sustained by Capt. WIS command in their
fight with large body of MeIieans, though he
had only "a men, instead OF 49, as was stated in
one narrative. We are glad TO hear that but sir
OF his men were killed, The remainder making
their way into Point Isabel.
The Times may not be lar out Of its reckoning,
in regard 10 the probable political honors OF the
gallant captain. A New Orleans paper already
designaies him as the futlre Governor OF Tam.n-
iiyas. Such services deserve ample reward-and
We are pleased 10 learn that Richmond was once

per 10 remark that the country from Richmond

rigedividins ittom Failing creek, and then down
Falling creek 10 Danvile, II il IS believed that the
location would be as favorable as hatoi any road
OF The same length above Tide waller.
The distance from Rchm nd 10 Danvi!le, as
taken from Boyel'S smaller map oil Virginia, and
fllowius as much as practicable, the turns oi the
road is about l40 miles, bnl as there would ne
cessarily be various curves in he road, it is fair
10 estimate il al 80 miles. The country heins
very favorable and abounding in fine timber,
