EXTRA SESSION OF CoNGREss.-T
Union states that the President will
avoid, if possible, an extra session of
Congress, and that he will only determine
upon such a measure under the compul-
sion of absolute necessity. TIE Union
also says ut is thought by many, we
might safely say by nine-tenths of the
Democratic members of the next Con-
grcss, who were members Of the last,
that the service of the Postohice Depart
mcnt may be carried on by means of GER
tiGcatcs which would be available in the
money markets for cash in the hands of
contractors and officers engaged in the
service. 1t is not unusual for certificates
to be issued in the absence of appropria-
tons, which, without binding the Gov
eminent as by contract, merely set forth
the fact of service rendered, and the
compensation due under existing law, or
usual in such eases. "

pie Of the county; and the lot has been
since enclosed and improved at further
outlay of some three or four thousand
dollars. To avail of these improvements,
so desirable to the people of the county
and the dignity of the place as court
of justice, and of public resort, it is of the
utmost importance that the same should
be kept in good repair and preserved
safe from decay and destruction; thus
avoiding repetition cf theAkurthoa Of
taxation so recently incurred Rr the pub
lie benefit.
The Grand Jury respectfully address
you as the body clothed with the collec-
ton and disbursement of the finances Of
the county, and the care and prescrva-
ton of the public property, and repre-
sent that the bench and bar arc in di-
lapidated condition, needing repair or
renewal the jury boxes and Grand Ju-
ny room are destitute Of furniture neces-
sary to the comfort of the jury, and con-
sequcntly the proper discharge OF the
business Of the people of the county. -

Henry Giles On Comparative
Lying.

The following passage from the lecture
delivered by Henry Giles. on Wednesday
evening, has an Erinian ardor combined
with terseness, which cannot fail to strike
the reader. even if he be not prepared to
admit the application to any one herea
bouts. Mr.. Giles said:
"But then the Irish tells such lies, es-
pecially the needy Irish, and above all the
servant girls! What sinners they must
be in the midst of surrounding truth!
How guilty they must be with such bril-
liant examples always and everywhere be-
fore them of simplicity, veracity truth
and integrity! What severe conscienti-
business in our party and our leaders!
How scrupulous our Press! How full of
probity our statesmen! How rigorous
verify rules our oratorsl How genuine
is all mercantile commodity, and how alb
horrent of falsehood is seller unto buyer!
Of what unbending rectitude are all our
monied corporations, how honorable and
how like Caesars wife are all their
agents. And none of them ever run
away with all the capital in their pocket.
The man servants and the maid servants
that could be capable of a lie in such an
age of truth are surely the most hardened
of transgressors Yet, occasionally I'M
truth is noticeable in some of their betters
at least, what simple people might consid-
er untruth. Joseph Surface Goliathan,
ESQ.,, had no respect for the sanctities of
his own home; he has no respect for the
sanctites of other mems homes; but he
burns with sense of indignant virtue on
finding out that Biddy went to meet
her lover, when she said she went to see
her aunt. Pet Joseph Surface Goliaihan,
Esq, thinks lies, breathes lies, eats lies,
drinks lies, sleeps lies, buys lies. dream
lies, and sells lies. pays lies, and has lies
paid to him: is himself .conglomerated
lie-will die in falsehood-and his ashes
after death will be consecrated by a lying
epitaph. For much and many, Joseph
Surface Goliathan, Esq. is representa-
tive
