The WASHINGTON ORGANS AND THE CONGRESS
PIINTTNG.-By many good natured people il is
supposed that the Washington Union is the
officially recognized central organ of the ad-
ministration. But this is a mistake. Mr.. Blu
chanan abandoned the idea of Washington
organ with the transfer of Mr.. Appleton to the
State Department. Since that day the Union
has simply been candidate, upon its own &C
count including the various parties interested,
for the printing of the next Congress. Hence
it's course. as between the national democracy
and the Southern ultras has been marked by
the greatest caution and circumspection. 1t does
not wish to lose the Northern democratic men,
bers of the new House, and it has mortal fear
of giving the slightest offence to the touchy and
irrascible Southern fire-eaters.
Of course, such journal as the organ Of the
administration amounts to nothing The sd-
ministration is under no necessity Of supporting
its claims for the Congress printing, and will
have nothing to do with it. 1t is evident, too,
from the presence Of another democratic organ
in Washington of the reform, rotation and
revolutionary school, that there will be tire
mendous fghti in both houses upon this Congress
printing among the numerous and hungry
contestants for these rich spoils. And
thus we entertain lively hope that
the solution Of this squabble for this enormous
haul of the public plunder will be the establish
ment Of a government printing Office, in the
form Of a public printing bureau, under the gene
raj supervision of the Department of the Inte-
rior. The profits Of the printing of Congress
have become too enormous to be allowed any
longer to any one man or firm, or company of
spoilsmen, and from the wranglng of the differ
ent claimants for a share, the only safe alterna-
tive will be to send them all adrift, and thus
save to the public treasury from half million
to q million year.
AS Mr.. Cobb will probably be pinched for
funds for his next years expenditures, we sub
NIT to his consideration the expediency of stop
ping this Congress printing leak of corruption,
and of saving the money thus wasted upon party
hacks, in order that it may be expended for gov
eminent uses

ANOTHER CRASH CoMse.-The Richmond
South, in the course of one of its characteristic
Jeremiads on Kansas, black republicanism, and
the decentralization of the national democracy,
says
But II the South shall be convinced that Walker has
transcribed his authority, and thereby given Kansas 10
the free soilersf II shall be convinced that a school,
calling itself the national" democracy has endeavored
close the mouths OF those who contend for practical
participation In the common Territoy-f shall believe
that national" parties nothing but inscriptions
combinations 10 get possession OF the government aud
that they settle nothing except the distribution Of the
spois fear will be impossible 70 prevent close and
deadly struggle which will test the strength Of our polt
cal structure be You'd any example II this contro
versy shall unhapp.y be rcOpcned by the c0unsels of
rcachcry timidy there can be neither peaccmakers
neutrais. Compromise and concession VIII be thrown
away no any end but STRIFE anarchy
and disunion.
The meaning Of all this is that the Southern
fre-eaters have resolved upon . desperate at
tempt to break down the administration in the
South upon the Kansas question. The game
will be actively commenced with the meeting of
Congre@-it may be protracted for several
months-but the end, we predict, will be the &c
cession, not of the Southern States from the
Union, but Of these Southern ultras from the
democratic party Of the administration, and
heir organization into little noisy sectional
faction by themselves but they will be as
mpotent for mischief as the South Carolina
nullifers of 1929, or as the Georgia and
Mississippi secessionisis of 1850. Let them
90 on.

THE LITTLE VILLAIN gang of stock gamblers
who broke down in Wall street last month, and
now are breaking down the sickly 7'me
newspaper, are casting about for ways and
means TO defeat Mr. Woods election for Mayor
next month, on the ground that there may be
riots next winter. This Is the best reason for
electing Wood, for he is the very man to manage
and control these dangerous classes without
danger 10 the city.

flush than usual. The amount of specie In the
vaults of the banks of this city last week was
$l2, OO0, 0O0-an increase over the preceding
week of $2OO0,OO0 Since then the Canada
arrived from England with million in specie
and the Star of the West from California with
million and half And all this time there
has been very little drain on the country
for specie We were never so rich in all repre-
sentatiyes of wealth us we now are. We can
export products to the amount of hundreds OF
millions of dollars and we need import COM
paratively nothing. What an anomalous posi-
ton when taken in connection with the panic |!
But the most striking feature of the times is
the economy everywhere exhibited. 1t has be-
come the order of the day, and is one of
the good effects of the pressure. 1t is fash
ionsble to wear old dresses and old bon
nets. All branches of business feel that econO-
my has displaced extravaganza. The tailors
say they never had such a food Of old clothes
to repair and such dearth in the demand for
new garments. The conductors of the city rail
road cars observe that hundreds Of their old Gus
toners have become impressed with the pleasures
of pedestrian exercise. The daguerreotypists
have experienced falling of in business of pro-
badly one-half; and even the BARRIERS find that
many Of their customers either shave themselves
or cultivate their beard, and get their wives to
cut and dress their hair.
These are some Of the minor, though by no
means unimportant consequences of the revul-
sion. We hope that when its more serious effects
are forgotten, the beneficial changes that it will
have effected in our social and business habits
will not be allowed to pass away.
