evil of The untricd future, we are compelled 70
think that the sage of Wheatland, with all his sa-
gacty, prudence, and experience, can ut best but
procrastinate an issue imperiously demanded, ana
make sick the heart with "hope deferred"
His administration however, will be an expert
mentum crhcis-a decisive test-of the possibility
of controlling the fanatcal spirit which anlmates
the scandinavian canalle Of the North, and OF pu-
rifying the corruption which contaminates her
political leaders.
We await the issue with the firm belief TINT the
diagnosis of the case is too complicated for hu-
man skill to treat it successfully.
The pageant of Inauguration will doubtless be
4 sight worth seeing The wealth and beauty
congregated at Washington, will add q splendour
and ecat to the occasion, which will for a moment
perhaps, cheat the lockers on into the belief that
no earthquake slumbers beneath the placid sur
face. The notorious infamy and disgrace of four
representatives, and the imputation cast upon
thirty others, will for moment be forgotten and
anticipation on tiptoe, will gaze wstfully into the
Future and strive to read the annals of American
greatness. The Future 1T is darkness But let
US hope against reason, that our political horizon
will clear up again brightly and beautifully, and
that the present splendid pageant at Washington
is but fore. shadowing of the glory and lustre Of
coming ares.

CONGREGATIONAL News,

WASHINGTON, Feb. 81.
Ssnate.-The Senate was in session until half
past one last night, and passed Mr.. Hunters SUBJ
stitute for the House tariff bill, reducing the pres
ent tariff to twenty per cent. The amendment
also was adopted placing duty on raw wool of
twenty three per cent an,l all wool valued Mt
twenty three cents less per pound to be free
The bill thus amended passed.
In the Senate to day they passed twenty five
private bills. The Post-ofhce appropriation bill
was discussed, and the Senate holds an evening
session.
House-Mr Gilbert, in his speech of defence,
denied the truth of the charges against him, and
denounced the attempt of the Hous" to fix q
stigma on his character as unprecedented. He
charged the House : it'll gross injustice towards
him, and concluded by stating that he had resign
ed his seat which he did, and Immediately left.
The House was taken by surprise. Resolutions
IN his case were tabled by 1876 against 6S. A let
ter was submitted from Mr.. Matteson setting forth
that as no trial was allowed to Mr.. Gilbert, he
(NIr. NJ. } had no right to expect large measure
of Justice, and had resigned his sent. The first
resolution was adopted by 145 against II; the
second adopted, and the third tabled.
The committee reported in the case of MIR o. B.
Matteson, as follows:
/. Resolved That 0rsamus B. Matteson, q
member of this House from the State OF New
York, did incic parties deeply interested in the
passage of a joint resolution for constructing the
Des Moines grant, to have here and use a large
sum of money and other valuable considerations,
corruptly, for the purpose of procuring the passage
of said joint resolution through this House.
9 Resolved, That 0rsamus B. AIatteson, in de-
claring that large number of members of this
House has associated themselves together, and
pledged themselves each to the other not to vote
for any law or resolution granting money or lands
unless they were paid for it, has falsely and will
fully assailed and DETAINED the character Of this
House, and has proved himself unworthy to be q
member thereof.
8. Resolved, That Orsamus B. Matteson, q
member of this House from the State of New
York, be and he is hereby expelled therefrom.
The first resolution was adopted by the House
ayes 145, noes II. The second was also adop-
ted The third was laid on the table.
Mr. Davis called up Mr.. Welch's case.
The House adjourned till p. m.

r,,C NExr GOVERNOR.

We notice that several nominations have alrea-
dy been made, to fill the Gubernatorial Chair Mt
the next election. Among others, our sownsman,
the Hon. DANIEL WALLACE, is again spoken of to
fill that post. 1t is time that South Carolina
should do honor to one of her nOblest SONS. A
self. made man-sor brief period lie served her
faithfully in Congress, and he was beyond doubt
the most prominent ami stalwart champion Of the
Palmetto State. Since 1852 he has been in re-
tirement and the State deprived of the lessons OF
his experience and matured political Judgment
This should not be so the State has claim on
him, and we know there is no one more ready to
respond to her call, nor more able to serve her
efficiently in any emergency. He is just the man
to fill the Gubcrnatorial Chair with dignity, wis
dom, frmness and courtesy. We hope his claims
will be duly considered and that at the next elec'
ton he will not be slog-rolled' out.

FOREIGN NEWS.

The intelligence last received from Europe is
neither startling nor interesting. The eSpendi-
ture of the English government over its income
for the last year was el6, ,959,000.
The Paris Presses says: "We state with regret
that the news relative to the affair of Neufchate
is decidedly not so good as we had right to ex-
pect. Letters from Berlin, as well as Berne,
show that all difficulties are not yet surmounted.'
The Porte was preparing to take possession Of the
Danubian Delta. The affairs of Greece are about
adjusted. The Persian war still continues, though
there are some hopes of an amicabe arrangement.
New details show that the damage sustained by
the foreign merchants in the late affair at Canton
we're exaggerated.

THE FOURTH OF MARCH.

The administration Of Franklin Pierce has
drawn to q close 1t is natural for US, at this
turning point, to pause and review the past, and,
however vainly, attempt to cast the horoscope OF
the future. The administration which has just
closed, was characterized by hrmness. patriotism
and honesty Without brilliancy of intellect or
great political fnesse, Mr.. Pierce has moral
power, energy of purpose and clear practical
Judgment, which has carried him through stormy
executive term with honor to himself and adTan-
tageously to the country. lie did all that human
ability could effect, to guide the destinies Of n
great nation by the landmarks erected by the
sapes Of the past II he has failed to remould the
disorganized elements of parties and factions, and
to impress upon the government of the United
States the stamp Of conservatism and permanent
cy it was because one of those crises, when cir
stances, counteracted the efficiency of his en-
deavors. Boldly vetoing what he deemed uncon-
stitutonal measures and self-aggrandizing appro-
priations, no wonder that he has been assailed
| with ylrulence Dy tlOse SIHIhS WIN tuionS tne
lobbies, or pollute the name of Congressman, and
make speculation of the rights and Interests Of q
whole nation. No wonder that such Catalinarian
audacity should launch invectives against pat
