A NEpY D0LEFUL ASPECT. lhe
New Orleans Crescent of Monday
last says:
Congress meets to-day--probs-
bly, the last national Congress that
will ever assemble at Washington
City. The session terminates by
law on the 4th Of March, but it
would not greatly surprise us If il
terminated much earlier than that
time, 80 far At least as respects the
Southern States and their Repre-
sentatives. Unless we greatly mis-
take the signs Of the times unless
we interpret incorrectly the steady
development of the plan Of seces-
sion, requiring time only for its
consummation, several of the South
ern States will be cut Of the Union
before the session has half expired;
aud, of course, no Representative
in either branch Of Congress will
remain there after his State shall
have formally closed her connec-
tion with the Federal Government
Some of the South Carolina mem
bers, in anticipation of the future,
have already declined to go to
Washington at all and have re-
signed their commissions as repre-
seutatives of the people.
The same newspaper says =
great deal more, but the above par
sgraph will suit our present pur-
pose, and the balance may go. In
the rubbish Of our front Office we
do not keep files of newspapers,
partly for the reason that the ven
dors of butter and cheese and
crackers by the small, pay two bits
the hundred for them, and partly
for the reason that they serve an
admirable purpose IN starting tho
fire. II we could find any number Of
the Crescent OF six months ago. il
would serve our purpose to show
that that paper then predicted with
remarkable foresight the result Of
tho Presidential contest, and la
bored TO show that the people Of the
Union would he somewhat indobt-
ed TO the great Democratic par
~ of the South for the result.
There is no doubt the Ctes-
cent displayed prophetic vision
then, and she was right TO say that
liberty stands indebted to that par
ty for everything but tile dissolu-
tion Of the Union. Indeed some Of
tho press of the Crescent's school
of politics, went 80 far, al to init
mate. that Mr.. Lincoln would pro-
badly make IA good President
for the nation, as some of the other
candidates, scarcely less sectional.
The Crescent has changed; tho press
and the politicians have changed I;
the times and the weather have
changed. Whether the people have
changed OF not, remains TO be seen.
when the great question is to be
submitted to them. If they are in
favor of breaking the Union, Of
course il will be done. We have
yet TO awaken TO the reality, and
contemplate. where we are TO be
lead to-whether n military des-
potism at home or into some for
eigu yoke. A much worse condi-
ton than that in which we shall

Amoug the instructions sent by
Charles ", TO Lord Ellinghsm, ap.
pointed Governor Of Virginia in
1882, the King explicitly com
mands him TO suffer no person with
in the Colony TO make use of a
printing press on any occasion or
pretence whatever. Aud when An
dros was appointed Governor OF
New England in 1856, he was in
structcd to allow no printing press.
This injunction appears not to
have been observed.
Sir William Berkely. a Royal
Governor Of Virginia, in letter
descriptive Of the state of the Pro-
vince, said, "l thank God there are
no free schools nor printing aud |
hope we shall not have these hun.

heresy, and disobedience, and seots
into the world; and printing divul-
gos them, and commits libels
against the government God keep
us from both"
Sir William, is represented as
an iudif1erently honest man, and
when he thanked God, that Virgin
ia was not cursed in his day, with
schools and printing presses, he
gave expression 10 the honest sen
timent of the learned people of his
government. What has two cen

will be seen that the people here have a
reputation for their interest in the great

to stir themselves that their reputation
shall not suffer. A committee will call on
our citizens ere long to ascertain who can
accommodate those who may attend the

places where the association has held its
