The Peace COngreSS

We have received from Mr.. EL1Hu
BURRITT, the celebrated learned black.
smith," copy of the address issued to
the different governments of Europe by
the worlds Peace Convention at Brussels,
of which Mr.. Burritt was Vice Presi-
dent. 1t is a very able document, pre-
senting the glories of peace and the hor-
rors of war in bold and startling contrast.
We look upon the labors of the friends
Of peace in both hemispheres with increas-
ing and hopeful interest, though we can
not help feeling that the good cause has
been greatly retarded and injured by
over-zealous and indiscreet advocates,
who have rushed upon the absurd dog
mas of non-resistance. Of this number,
however, Mr.. B. is not one. On the con-
trary, his advocacy has been of manly,
elevated and common-sense character
dictated by correct views of humanity.
We wish him God-speed, in his glorious
mission
We cannot understand why national
difficulties cannot be amicably settled by
arbitration or negotiation, as we'll as diff
ficulties between individuals. 1t is not
often, in this region at least, that indi-
viduals resort to personal combat to de-
eide upon their disputed rights. 1t is
left to mutual friends, or to the courts of
justice, to deliberate and decide upon
the points in question. And why may
not like means be resorted to by nations,
with like results? The triumph Of one
nation over another by the sword, decides
no principle of equity or justice. 1t
simply tells US that the mighty have ov-
ercome the weak, or that might has pre-
vailed against right. Aside from an ov-
e'uling Providence, the cruel, oppressive
and blood thirsty, are quite as likely to
succeed, as the upright and hnmane. A
congress of nations might and doubtless
would seek to establish justice, without a
resort to arms. One thing is evident, wars
are becoming more and moro unpopular
among the people of enlightened and
Christian nations: and there are many
indications of the slow and gradual ap-
proach Of the day predicted by the in
spired prophet, when "wars shall be no
MORE"

veto upon executive usurpation and
wrOng-doing, and elevated to the highest
Office in their gift man famous for the
strictness of his integrity in public and
private life. So Ear, this is well but the
reform must necessarily be incomplete,
unless it is carried into all departments
Of the government.
Mr.. 6MsTH, the honored Representa-
tive from this District, is model of what
Congressman ought to be. A more
fHithful, efficient and hard working man,
is not to be found in either branch Of the
National Legislature. His labors in the
committee room and on the floor have
been invaluable in perfecting and expe-
diting the business of Legislation. May
his successor who is soon to be chosen
prove equally worthy of so responsible
a station. We can hardly expect Con-
gress to be industrious and patriotic, if
we elect drones and scheming pettifog-
ers to do the business of the nation.

been called at New Milford on the 7th of

Congressional Reforms.

~SS~AAs~S
We have occasionally been asked of
late for "more Congressional news -
and it is certainly commendable on the
part of the people to desire to know
what their agents are doing at the seat
of government. 1t is well that they
should watch with a jealous eye the men
with whom they have entrusted the in
terests and prosperity Of the nation and
the representative should be made to
feel that the interests of his constituents
are too sacred to he trifled with. Con-
gress has been quite too long an arena of
demagoges-a ring for "dandy-jacks" to
ride their hobbies in. The Capitol needs
to be swept and garnished; and honored
be he who shall first successfully WELD
the Bosom of Reform within its walls!
Congress has now been together some
six weeks. and have accomplished abso-
lutely nothing. True, the usual number
of subjects have been taken up, and the
usual amount of gas let off in the shape
of wordy declamation-but no bill Of
any importance has been matured or f.
nally disposed. And in this simple fact
lies the reason why we have not chroni-
cled the doimgs of that august body.
The truth is, as we humbly conceive,
there never was q chap SO often or SO
egreglously swindled, as Uncle Sam.
1t would seem that every one who has
any dealings with him, feels specially
privileged to pick his pockets with per-
feet IMMUNITY. Not only sub-treasurers.
contractors, commissaries, and public
printers, rob him without stint-but
grave Representatives and Senators, not
content with their eight dollars per day,
d.liberately vote themselves each IL
brary at his expence, and then cheat in
travelling fees. Why will the people
permit all these evils to 60 unrebuked ?
The remedy is in their own hand. In the
ballot box lies the sovereign specific for
all the diseases that affiict the body pol
itic. Let it be well applied, and we shall
hear no more Of the idleness and rapacity
in our public servants.
Mr.. Greeley recently raised tremen
dous excitement in the House, occasion
ed mainly by an article in Tribune, ii
which Mr.. &. attempted to show by an
thentic documents that members OF boil
Houses have, at each successive session
opsrcharged in mileage several Thousand
dollars. Several members became
good deal excited on the subject, ant
called all sorts of hard names. We shall
not attempt to decide between the partie
upon tile matter Of fact; but we are Ger
tain that Mr.. Greeley is not the man to b
frightened or brow-bea In statistics
he has no superior in this country; as
reformer. he is untiring and energetic
probing corruption to.its centre. Their
are abuses enough in Congress whicl
need exposure and reform, and We hope

lyztive step towards edecting remedy

CHOLERA IN NEW ORLEANS.
Cincinnati Dec. 29-lOA. M.

| SGGCEWUWtt LEV. Az A. M1s
The accounts received here of the very
extensive ravages of the cholera in New
Orleans and on board of the boats bound
up are well calculated to create the ut
most CONSERVATION among Our citizens.
The steamer Pcytona, from New Or
leans, arrived here few minutes ago
The captain reports that the cholera wa
raging to an alarming extent in New Or
leans when he left on the 21st. Four.
teen deck passengers died with the chol.
era, on board the Peytona, while coming
up the Mississippi.
The captain Of Peytona further states
that the steamer St. Cloud was lying ut
Vicksburg, unable to proceed any further
on account Of the fearful ravages of the
cholera on board the boat, while on the
passage up. The captain, the mate, the
clerk, and one of the rilots of the St.
Cloud had all died with the cholera
The remainder of the crew deserted at
Vicksburg. .4 ....
The Peytona passed the steamer South
America coming up, full of sick passen-
gers, and only small crew on board,
scarcely enough to work the boat.
From the Charleston Courier, Dec. 9TH.
A private despatch received in this
city from New Orleans, dated 25th inst,
announces that $50 deaths of cholera had
taken place that day.
Louisville, KY, Dec 29-4P. n.
All the passengers on board the stea-
mer Bay State, bound down, left the boat
this morning. and returned to Cincinnati.
Reports from New Orleans have reached
here, stating that the boats there are un-
able to discharge their freight, as no one
will pay the charges and receive it.
