The EXTRA SEssIoN.-It seems still uncer.
tain, at the present writing, whether an extra
session of Congress will be called or not
The President and Postmaster General, or
whom the responsibility for the proper admin
istration of the Department rests, are earnest
ly in favor of it, while the rest of the Cabinet
are as decidedly opposed to it. The opposition
arises from consideration of the damaging eff
feet it would have on the party-matters be-
ing SO situated, that what benefits the country
damages the party, and what benefits the par
ty damages the country and, where the coun-
try is in one scale, and party in the other, with
certain politicians, the country always has to
kick the beam.
The Washington correspondent of the New
York Times says:
"The Cabinet are still resisting the move
ment for an extra session, but their resistance
is all in vain. The Presidents mind was made
up on Saturday last, and his Proclamation
may be issued tomorrow. Attorney General
Black took the position that, as the Post OF.
fee Department would inevitably be dishonor-
ed in a few weeks, an extra session would
come too late to save the credit of the Govern
ment. He therefore prefers continuation of
protest to the evils of an extra session"
The Tribune correspondent speaks of the
matter as undecided on Friday evening, with
the President rather inclined to adhere to his
original intention of calling an extra session.
The Herald correspondent, on the other
hand, says:
"The question of an extra session of Con
gress is still undecided Every effort is being
made to avoid it if possible, and the chances
are decidedly against an extra session. Meas
ures have already been taken to ascertain
whether money can be raised on certificates of
service, without mourning much, if any dis
count. 1t is alleged by those opposing an extra
session, that sufficient means can be raised in
this way to carry on the service, which will
obviate the necessity of converting Congress,
and which, if persisted in, will give the organ
ization of the House to the Black Republicans"
Such was the state of the question on Fri
day evening, with the expectation that a meet
ing of the Cabinet would be held on Saturday
morning, when the matter would be settled.
But such probably was not the fact. The on
ly subsequent information we have, is contain
ed in despatch from Washington on Satur-
day evening, which says:
"There is much reserve in official quarters
as to the extra session question, and no salts
factory response has thus far been elected but
tonight there is reason to believe that it is
held in allegiance for the present, liable to be
taken up at future period. There is a sub
ject pending which probably induces the indie
cision, viz: whether the mail service can be
carried on by certificate instead of cash, until
Congress shall make the necessary appropria-
tons. 1t has been estimated that the service
which is absolutely necessary to be performed
will require about twice as much as the entire
receipts, to say nothing of the present indebt-
edness.

The letter of our Western correspondent
will be read with interest but we think his de-
scription better than his philosophy, as exem-
plified in the latter portion of his letter. All
human institutions are imperfect and life, it.
self, at best, is a constant conflict with the
evils with which it is attended. The sugges-
ton, therefore, that we should abandon the
Union to get rid of the evils attending it, in
stead of meeting them manfully, and oyercom-
ing them in due time, is somewhat like advis-
ing man to commit suicide, to escape the
evils necessarily attending his mortal state,
evils which it is his duty to meet and over
come, and for the overcoming of which he is
all the better than he would have been, if they
had not existed. 1t is our opinion that we
can do vastly more good in the Union than we
can out of IT,

CATTLE BREEDERS CoNvENTIoN.-A meet
ing of all parties interested in thoroughbred
cattle, in Connecticut and Massachusetts,, is
called at the City Hall, Hartford, on the 9th of
April, at 10 A. NJ The objects are to prevent
animals of impure blood from competing with
thoroughbreds at State and County fairs, and
to adopt more rigid system of pedigrees
All kinds of pure blood stock will be represent
ed, and we do not doubt that breeders will find
it for their advantage, in the language of the
call, to make personal acquaintance with each
other, and add to the common stock of their
knowledge and experience.

SINGULAR TRAGEDY in MICHIGAN.-The
Grand Rapids Eagle reports that a murder and
two suicides occurred under singular circum-
stances in the town of Ensley, Newaygo Co.,
on tie 18th inst. In the early part of the
week two men named Jacob Dopp and Enos
Merritt, called on Mr.. White and wished to
borrow money, but were told by Mr.. White
that he had none. On Friday, as Mr.. White
and his son were putting up well-sweep, Mer-
rift again appeared and asked the young man
to go with him to distant marsh and help
fetch in deer which he had shot. The young
man complied, and not long after the elder
White was startled by the crack of rifle, and
ball whizzed past his head, just grazing his
temple. He ran into the house and loaded his
rifle, and upon coming out saw Merritt step out
from behind a tree and raise his rifle, aiming it
directly at him. He cried 'murderp and
again retreated into the house, crying "mur-
der p at the top of his voice, until Merritt fled.
White and his neighbors then started to search
for the young man, but were unsuccessful.
The next day Dopp and Merritt were both
found in an old house-the former dead, shot
by his own hand the latter but just alive,
having taken strychnine. From Merritt, be-
fore his death, however, they learned enough
to enable them to find the body of young
White, behind a log in the marsh spoken of.
lie had, it appears, been shot by Dopp, who
met him and Merritt at the entrance to the
woods on the day previous, and pretended to
conduct the young man to the dead deer, while
Merritt turned back. Dopp and Merritt passed
that night at the house of John Osborne, and
were observed to be very uneasy. They left
early in the morning, and were afterwards
found as above stated. They were noted char
acters 1t is supposed they believed White
| had NANCY in bio and int 10
der the whole family to get it, and that the
young man was enticed into the woods with
the expectation that his disappearance would
be the occasion Of fixing suspicion upon him
when the murder of the family was dscov-
cred.
