DOinsS in Congress.

1 The Congress OF the United States, ad :
iourned on Tuesday, of last week, after a
session of lew days over one month
Legislation was pushed through with such
rapidity and so little consideration, that ii
will take some liule time TO ascertain what
they did do and what they did not do
That numerous blunde.s were committed in
the great scramble and rush, is already ap-
parent; among them it may be stated tlgo
bills authorizing the calling out of volun-
teers were passed, TINS giving the Pres
ident the power to call out million of men,
instead of SOC, 900, as was intended. The
following are the bills of importance dis
posed of during the past week.
The tariff bill has passed both branches,
almost the same as il came from the COM
mittee, with the sugar, tea and coffee tax
clause in it. as published by Us few weeks
since The Direct Tax bill, the most i'm
poriant of the Session, was also passed.
This bill proposes to raises $40 600, ,OOn,
I annually by direct taxation. This tax is TO
fyied on all real estates, houses, chat
slaves and all incomes, over $780,
gold watches tax OF one dollar is laid,
on silver watches fifty cents. Carria-
are TO be taxed from one. 10 fifty del ars
80, in accordance with their value
Soifituous liquors are TO be taxed fiye cents
pergaIlon, and fermented liquors two cents
! rsr gallon, or sixty cents per barrel, when
ne latter contains over thirty gallons, the
AK to be paid by the distiller, who is re
quired 10 keep sworn record of the mum
Der Of gallons manufactured. A drawback
is allowed in cases where such taxed IL
quors may subsequently be exported.
The bill confscaling the property of reb-
els found in arms against the government
including slaves found engaged in the mill
iary and naval service of the rebels, also
passed. A bill increasing the pay of pria
Yates and non commissioned officers, two
dollars per month, and bill legaiiz ng the
acts of the President so far as his military
proclamations are concerned, were also
adopted.

McDOWelI'S Report.

In looking over the report, made by Gen.
eral Mcdowell, OF The late Bull Run battle,
We discover that the General makes out
the Federal loss only about 400 killed,
wounded and missing. The Confederates s
report their entire loss at 600 killed and
2700 wounded. These reports have been
slow about coming before the public, and we
doubt much whether al official rel O.: can
be taken as truly correct one. So far as
relates to the loss of life we do not see why
it should not, but there are so many other
things to give an account of that it would be
almost an impossibility TO come near a
true account. The loss or arms, ammuni-
ton, provisions, horses, wagons, &C., must
have been great in this battle. We rec-
ollect of there being quite an amount OF
grain lost, which fell into the rebel hands,
bat the number of bushels we are not able
at present 10 give. The rebels no doubt
captured enough 10 feed their bony stock
for few weeks. Their horses are said 10
be in bad condition compared with ours.

For OF Against.

There can be no two parties now say the
Republicans, 1--WE must either be Tor OF
against the government The Democratic
party has always been for the government
and if there is 10 be but one party we
would suggest that between the two or
more parties we should choose the safest
one. This would of course be the Demo
cratic party, for that has made the country ;
while others in few months have nearly
destroyed it. ''For or against the govern
mentn or in other words, a Republican or
traitor, SC Now let us look over the
past and see whether this four months
growth of patriotism is real or false. Have
the Republicans for the last four or five
years been for or against the government
as administered Ifthey have not endorsed
Buchanan's, Pierce's, ,Tyler's, Folks, and 9TH
er democratic administrations then accord
ing to their Interpretation of traitors every
man of them has for many years been
traitor. Suppose their Interpretation of
iraitorism be true, why should they hang
democrats for being four months, what they
have been for forty years. The great trouble
with these men is that they do not seem TO
know enough to distinguish between an ad-
minislration according to the Chicago Plat
form, and the government according 10 the
Constitution. All Democrats are in favor
of the government, but they are not in favor
OF :ha, administration of the government,
which, instead of preserving the country
and holding it to the ancient landmarks of
peace, prosperity and nationality, have run
it into sectionalism, dissolution and civil
war. We will all sustain the Government,
but we think the very first step necessary TO
that end is 10 re establish the principles that
have given us government TO sustain

WHAT THEY INTESD.-The other day a
Republican remarked to a friend OF Peace,
that 'faey had got hold Of this gorernmeat al
last, and they meant noiC TO KEEP HOLD OF lT.'
This remark, though coming from a single
individual, is certainly very strongly cor
federated by all that is occurring. Under
the plea of necessity" Mr.. Lincoln has
Sc, aside the Constitution, and if they sue
ceed in keeping the country in civil wal for
the whole lime of his office, why may he
not, under the same plea of necessity -
suspend or postpone the Presidential
election of 1864? Or, if we GO through the
forms of an election with freedom OF speech
suppressed by mob, il would be a mere
farce.

A MARROW EscAPE.-The Rev. ]. A. Kelly,
pastor of the Baptist Church in Jersey Shore,
in crossing bridge over ravine about
half a mile below town in his buggy had his
horse buggy and child preciPilaled over the
side of the bridge, distance OF ten feet. The
horse in throwing his head back to catch a
fly became en:angIed in the harness and
commenced to back on the bridge, which
is without railing. Mr. K. jumped out 10
catch him but could not hold him and he
backed the buggy clear off. Mrs. X. barely
escaped by jumping, without being able 10
save the child. The child fell out and the
buggy over him, and the horse on the bug
gy. Strange TO say no serious injury befell
any Of them, though the child and horse are
both scratched and bruis ed some.-WH-

Another Name.

The Republican Office seekers have come
again 10 the necessity for change of name.
After running the country into ruin they
know it would be uttet folly TO think of run
ming as Republicans, and so they think by
a change of name the people will take
them for something or somebody else than

have caught al the name of ''Union party,

have destroyed the Union. The Democracy,
however, will contest the title and show up

to change name is positive evidence that
they consider their past name disgraced and
rendered odious by their principles ard pol

United DEMocRAcY.-We have been much

approach the nominating convention

each has his respective friends, but all are
willing TO abide by the decision OF the con-

when nominated shall be elected The de-
mocracy are getting fully aroused 10 the
TACT that their principles are and always
have been right. and they are bound that
beginning with county elections they will
restore The principles of The democratic
party throughout The country. The people
are anxious for another opportunity TO ex-
press their feelings through the ballot box,
aud when that opportunity comes they will
repudiate everything that is republican from
