HALF WAY.-Congress has adjourned,
(says the Baltimore Sun, and TIE extra
session Of the Senate is about to close.
With these events Mr.. Buchanan reaches
the middle of his term of office, and in
two years more, if he lives, will inaugu-
rate his successor And who is it to be :?
We must pass through nearly two years
of severe political agitation before we
are able to answer that question; and
from the standpoint Of to-day we look
forward to the result with no very plea
SAINT emotions. The integrity of our in
stitutious-the unity, SO to speak, of our
nationality is assailed by the most UNI
principled body of politicians that ever
attained influence and importance il our
country, and but for an unfiiuching re-
lance upon the popular intelligence we
should entertain much doubt about the
result, In the meantime it dcyolves up
on all who love their country, who would
preserve its institutions and lis unity I'M
impaired, to stand CALAMITY by the great
first principles Of our common Union
To adhere to the constitution, and to
honor its broad, tolerant, and compre-
honsivo spirit. and to eschew the prcten-
sions and eophistry of the demagoguc,
whatever may be his profession and zeal.
We owe to posterity, as well as to our
selves, faithful and resolutc defence Of
every interest Of whatever section of our
country that may be assailed By fanati-
cism, faction or ambition.

E4~ The Washington Union, in an
editorial on the defeat of the bill making
appropriation to conduct the mail service
of the government, says it places it out
Of the power of the executive to main
tain the existing mail service, and then
adds The department, at most, can
use the accruing receipts ap to the close
Of the fiscal year, the a0th of June. -
Nearly all moneys appropriated at the
last session have been exhausted, so that
the accruing income is all that is availa-
Bile, and even this income will not be
available after the LIST July next. OF
course it is the duty of the adminiit ira
ton at once to adjust the service to the
means in its hands. This will require a
prompt suspension of great many
routes, and a general reduction Of all
others. Within few weeks the country
will be able to determine the wisdom of
the policy which controlled its represent
atives in thus striking down the most i'm
portant and necessary branch Of its pub
lie business.
