Congressional.

But little of interest has transpired at Wash
ington, since our last issue. Senator Seward
delivered on able and interesting Speech in the
Senate on Wednesday, and we hasten to lay it
before our readers 1t is a master effort, and
will be read with much pleasure.
An election of Printer, Mr.. Ford, Republic
con, was made, and after being sworn, his cleo
ton was declared null, on account of neglect
to receive vote. On Thursday, Mr.. Ford was
again elected by four majority. Mr.. Sherman
has introduced some important measures which
show the sagacity of the man, and the ability
he possesses while yet less than thirty-fve years
of age One is a substitute bill providing that
the members of Congress shall receive as mile
age 20 cents per mile in lieu of the 40 cents
now allowed, and that the distance shall be
computed geographically instead of construc-
lively. In other words an 6 air line route is
to be substituted for the " round-a bout course
by which mileage is now calculated. The pas
sage of this bill will save the government 5000,
OUU pcr dnuum'
The other is a bill touching the matter of
Post Office reform. 1t looks to the abolition Of
the ranking privilege and to the re-organiza-
tion of the Post Office Department. The great
feature of this reorganization is the proposed
application of the principle of contract service,
now applied to the transmission of the mails,
to the distribution and delivery of the mail
matter. In other words, to have the Office of
Postmaster given out to the lowest responsible
bidder; the other features of the system re-
naming substantially as they are now. Thus,
when Postmaster is wanted, proposals issue as
now for carrying the mails. The man who
will perform the service at the lowest rate, Civ
ing proper bonds for the discharge of his duty,
takes the Office.

Since another article upon this subject was
written, we have received lengthy communi-
cation from an esteemed correspondent and
patron, suggesting that our remarks two
weeks since, in favor of the reelection of Mr..
Fairbanks, are not precisely in keeping with
the Free Democratic doctrins under which the
Freeman has been for the past Eve years SO ably
and successfully conducted" We have a great
regard for our correspondents foresight and
ability, and thank him for his suggestions.
With him our first choice for Governor is Law
renee Brainerd, but we have good reasons for
knowing that Mr.. Brainerd does not desire the
Office, but with many other leading Anti.Slave.
ry men, prefers the election of Mr.. Fairbanks,
and with the decision Of such men the Freeman
naturally acquiesces. We also agree with our
correspondent that it is the right of the dis
tinctive Anti Slavery portion of the party to
claim that the selection be made from their
ranks, and shall, with him, very much
regret such packing of the delegates to

TRUE PRAYER.

Would you see true prayer-would YOU
know what PRAYER really is. Step into the
Egyptian palace where Benjamin stands
bound-his amazed and trembling brothers
grouped around the lad. Iadah advances.
He bows himself before Joseph. His head
i full. His lip tremblss. The tear glis-
tens in his manly eye and now, with ten
derness thrilling every tore, he ponrs forth
his plea Of surprising pathos. Oh, my
Lord, let thy servant, pray thee, speak
word in my Lords ears, and let not thy an
ger burn against thy servants. MY Lord
asked bis servants, saying have ye father
or brother! Aud we said unto nv Lord
we have father, an old man, and child of
his old age, little one and ne alone OF his
mother, and his father loved him." Thus
on he goes; and every sentence goes like a
knife into Joseph's heart. And then he clio.
ses and crowns his appeal with this most
brave and generous proposal, Now, there
fore, pray hee, let thy servant abide in
stead Of the lad as bondsnan TO nv Lord
for how shall 90 TO my father and the lad
not with me; les; | see the evil that shall
come upon my father loseph's heart,
which was then swelling with emotion, is
now ready to burst. He can stand it no
longer nor any wonder. That is prsyer.
Two women stand before king solomon.
In the darkness OF the night, .ene has crept,
with s.nOiseless step, 70 her neighbor's bed,
and while the mother slept, and the babe
slept on her bosom, softly, cautiously, she
steals the living child, and leaves her own
cold, dead infsn, in its place. They carry
the dispute to SOlomoa-eaeh claiming the
living. and each repgdiating the dead. With
skill that earned his worldwide tame, the
wise monarch summons nature - 1 witness.
Horrible to hear, be orders the living child
= be divided, and each mother gets auiy-
eriBg half--and another moment, and inter-
ference comes too late. One stands ftm,
collected, looking on With cruel eye. With
a bound that carries her to his feet, and a
shrek that rings wild and high over all the
place. the other, the true mother-elasps her
lands 10 agony, and cries, Oh. ny Lord,
