The Last Congress.


Here is an able, candid, truthful article from
Mckenzie Of tho Lima DeRoerat. Read it;
Beyond the admission of MinReso.
ia and Oregon, and the settlement of
the Kansas matter, it has done moth.
ing worthy of remembrance. With
nomiualT "a Democratic majority,
there wero men calling themselves
Democrats, lacking every essential
element of Democratic principle, and
whose mission seemed to be to en-
barrass, together with the Opposition
a Democratic Administration Of the
Government.
The usual appropriation bills were
passed, excepting that for the Post
Office Department, which was defeat
ed by means Of a stupid question of
privilege raised by Mr.. Grow, Repub,
lican, against the Senate, for AMEND
ING, not ORIGINATING, the bill. An
issue of $50, 100000 Treasury Notes
was authorized, but 10 chunge made
in the Tariff, many believing that with
reviving trade and business matters
the present Tariff would amply sus-
tain economical government. Wheth.
er this is correct or not, time must de-
terminc.
All parties conccde retrenchment
in public expenses to be necessary;
but, the Republicans contented them
selves with grumbling at expenses,
yet taking no practical means to less.
en- them, III indeed fares a due ad.
miniStration Of public affairs, when
the practical effort and all tho effort OF
a party is but to clog the wheels Of
government, for merely factions and
partizan purposes. And this is the
highest elimination of Republican
craftsmanship which this Congress has
developed. 1t must be plain to every
one that this new party bears not on
its shoulders the mantle of the giant
Wing party. Full Of benevolent pre-.
tence, it is barren OF results; eager for
economic governmont-if WORDS
would assure such consummation 1t
helps and aids plunderiug schemes
only. Its craftsmanship is circum,
scribed to piddling, and to small de-
tails. 1t aspires to no adequate for.
eign policy, and its home measures
amount to no more than sheer opposi-
ton for the spoils. God help the
country entrusted to such meu's care
and government,
The measures relative to Cuba,
Central America, and Mexico, have
all been postponed until another sos-
sion, owing to the Opposition who
aim to compel a timid and inefficient
foreign policy upon the government
80 that in 1860, what they have caused
may be charged to the default Of the
Democratic Administration.
Mr. Buchanan, under all the diff
culties Of his position, has shown that
the expectations formed fron his past
craftsmanship, in home and foreign
matters, have not been disappointed /;
that he las been worthy OF his high
position as President; and, ifhe had
been adequately seconded, he would
have achieved results, fittingto our
growing national greatness; and eff,
ftctuated policy worthy Of Ameri.
