1t is not certain that the country will
not receive more benefit by congressional
neglect than by all it actually accomplished
during the last session. We shall at least,
have some reason to hope in this way, if
the government sees fit to try to keep the
post Office machinery in motion without
calling an extra session OF Congress. The
appropriation for the use of this deuart.
ment, it will be recollected, failed through
the perverseness of Mr.. Toombs, during the
closing hours Of the session. piece of
folly which bis friends regret more than
his enemies. There now appears to be
but two alternatives to call an extra
session Of Congress, or introduce into the
department little of its primitive econo.
my, II the latter could be thoroughly
pursued the country would have good
reason thank the tbirty-6fth Congress for
what it neglected to do. But this is an
ungrateful effort for tbs democracy, as the
millions unnecessarily spent in this way
all goes into the pockets of government
favorites. and is chiefly spent OIL needless
routes in the South and South Wost. It
cannot be doubted that by judic ious, econ.
omical management the department can
be made self-sustaining, but economy and
modern democracy do not dwell in the
same house, except by compulsion. But
the next House will be largely opposed to
tho administration, and especially if called
soon--before the southern elections, and
this would inevitably give the organization
to the OPPOSITION, There in reason to think
that the remainder of this administration
will be even moro grievously bsset with
difficulties than the former part.

READING YoR TIE DouaLAs DEMocRATs
In the great debate in the United States
Senate on Wednesday last, Mr.. Brown Of
Mississippi said
a. He gave the Senate warning that if
the Legislature Of Kansas undertook to
abolish slavery, the people of his State,
and large portion of the South. would
come to Congress demanding protection.
They demanded justice and equal right.
This, be repeated. WAS an element which
must enter into the ne1 Presidential
contest, and it was right that they should
know where they STOOD"
Mr.. Mason of Virginia said +;
al He claimed to know this, and he
feared no dissentisnt voice south of the
Potomac, that if this Kansas-N ebraska
act was to be interpreted to remit the
rights of the South in the Territories from
both Congress and the Supreme Court to
the inhabits of the Territories for the
time being, The Southern States toould
recreant 10 their honor if they give any
candidate standing upon such platform
a solitary vote. And if it was TO be the
signal for dissolution of the party, let it
be dissolved and the sooner the better.
Tney would find no one builder or blank
for the reconstruction Of the platform on
such basis in the whole Southern States"
Mr.. Gwin Of California said
I" II no had understood the Kansas Ne,
braska bill as il was now interpreted by
the Senator from Tllinsis, he nevor would
have voted for IT, He called upon others
who voted for it to state if they had 50

body was cheated

The Territorial Legislature had no

that power only by The right Of repoin.

was too little understood and appreciated.
The pictures drawn OF several distin-
guished country seats were fine, especially
those of the late Judge Meach Of our own
State and Of Daniel Webster at Marsh
field. HIS panegyric upon shade trees
showed a true appreciation Of the asthetics
of his theme and his laudatioD Of fruit

The Elm was not forgotten. " 1t stands
like globe of vegetable ether through
whose skylights the lingering rays Of day
steal down upon and kiss you into an
ecstasy Of bliss" The instance Of the
aged clergyman planting an elm in our
village was alluded to in beautiful aud
touching manner So also that pattern
deed Of the graduating class Of 1853, in
eliciting a tree, chosen tree, from plebiap
soil and with classic hands, bidding it grow
on classic soil and throw timely shadows
on classic Halls, was portrayed with an
elegance of style as impressive as it was
refreshing, The ideas of tho lecture were
clothed in parts with most lovely imagery.
Mr.. RS style is what is termed poetic
prose, and at times assumes phases Of sub.
Unity and true eloquence. The lecture
ought to be repeated in score of YER
mont villages and towns ere the time of
tree planting arrives.

MERCHANT LINE OF LIVERPOOL AND
kosToN PACKETS. We take pleasure in
referring our readers to the advertisement
Of PAGE, RICHARDSON & Co.. who have
established another line Of Boston and
Liverpool Packets, This line was estab-
l'shed about year ago, and has thus far
met with complete success. The proprie-
tors are men of ability and high standing,
and there is no doubt but they will faith
fully perform every thing they propose.
We are glad to see the rates Of passage
reduced on par with New York rates,
This will. in great measure, prevent
passengers coming into Massachusetts, via
New York, as heretofore. Whilst there
was but oneline of packets between Liver.
pool and Boston, thousands came to New
York. and thence by railroad to Boston,
rather than pay the difference in the rates
Of passage direct to Boston. which was
usually twenty or thirty shillings more
than to New York. Thanks TO the pro-
prietors Of the Merchants Line, this state
of things exists no longer. They have re.
duced the rates from e21 to SIT. Let
those who wish to see this state of things
continue. see to it that the Merchants
Line is well patronised. Competition
is the life Of trade
