COuRress.

With the re assembling of this body of venera-
BILE sages and immaculate patriots, the discussion
Of the slavery subject has been again revived
with fresh vigor and spirit. Scarcely have the
alarm bells of the late Presidential election died
away, before the country is aroused from its short
nap uy a lusty roar of the Congressional tocsin,
enough to waken the dead. We had hoped that the
huge annual salary which these magnanimous
gentlemen voted themselves at the last session,
would have made them comfortable and content
ed But they are nothing without the "nigger
Give them champagne, burgundy, port and Ma
deira, they will atill clsmor for their blackberry
cordial The whole country is tired and disguised
with the African question 1t pants for repose and
peace but that is just what Congress is determined
Il shant have. 1t seems resolved to recognise no
other American interest than the interest of poll
ticians, which interest would utterly perish but
for the eternal hobby of abolitionism.
Well, let them 60 ahead They will abolish
something after awhile, we have no doubt; but,
judging from present appearances, they are more
likely to abolish the interests of the white race,
and Anglo Saxon liberty and civilization on this
continent, than African slavery. Would to hea-
ven that members Of Congress could be rational
and practical like other men; that they could even
have lucid interval Of q single month, In which
they could discover that the business Of twenty
three millions Of white men is of more consequence
than that of three millions of negroes. But that
10 not to be expected.
The daily dispatch. [volume] (Richmond [Va.]) 1850-1884, 1856-12-09

moreover very unequal In different sections Of tbs
Union. The Dispatch pays more in one week fer
the Geographic messages from Huntington, than
Cincinnati paper pays in several weeks for It's
news from all directions. Ia that city, papers pay
. certain sum per week, and there isno limit to the
essages. No matter how much news, and no
matter how long the messages. there 10 no differ-
ence Ia the weekly charge, which 10 very low
The Cincinnati papers have much longer messages
than the Richmond papers; not enc of those Gin.
cinnasi journals pays half ~ much per week AZ
either OF the Richmond papers.
Therefore, we want competition in telegrsphing
We want better and cheaper service; we want
rates that are fair and equal; not such a. grind
down the press Of this city, and favor Pittsburg
Chicago, Cleveland and Cincinnati. We would
not be deploring the want Of this competition if
Congress had denied to Morse . renewal of his
patent That body should have done this, unless
the reasons for extending II were of the most sat-
isfactory kind and in that case, they ought to
have paid him something and given the patent to
the world. The telegraph is an agent which, In
too comprehensive aud searching a manner In.

safety Of the nation and every individual In 1t, to
be eontded to the hands Of soulless monopoly
