The Opposition I'm the Next Congs ess-
The Hope or the Country.

The tabular statement which we published
yesterday Of the returns of the elections Of
members to the House Of Representatives in
gress, which assemblies in the first week Of
December, there will be o majority of six
against the administration and its radical
policy, the members already elected being
eighty-one republican and eighty-seven opposi-
ton. There are still fourteen members to be
elected, from California, Delaware, Maryland
Vermont and West Virginia; but the most the
administration can calculate upon is half Of
these, which is more than they will get. As
for the election Of three members in Eastern
Virginia-a State in rebellion, and in which
the election was carried on under martial
law-ths members thus elected may not be ad-
mittsd 10 seats In the House; so that there will
be still at least . majority Of six against the
administration. But the majority will be
greater than this; for it is probable that Mary
land and West Virginia, like Kentucky, will
send to Congress solid delegations pledged
against the satanic policy Of Chase, Stanton u
Co., which Of late has ruled the admins
tration. When it was predicted year
| ago that the next House OF Repre-
sentatives would be in opposition we
were told that the elections in the border States
would prevent that contamination; that Ken
lucky, for example, was safe for the admins
tration. But what are now the facts. Ken
lucky sends her whole nine members to
Congress against the administrations and while
Missouri sends three for, she sends six against
it, Maryland, Delaware and West Virginia
will follow suit. The States most bitter in
| their opposition to the rebellion are the border
States. With us the war is o sentiment We
have experienced none Of Its horrors But how
different Kentucky and other border States.
| They hate the rebellion with an intensity which
cannot be realized In the Eastern and Middle
States But, next TO the rebellion and
the rebel chiefs, they oppose the administration
Of Mr. Lincoln, because they believe that
Its policy prolongs the war and pro.
tracts their suffsrings and because that policy
does not discriminate between the loyal
men and non-combatants Of the South on one
side and rebels openly In arms on the other
The fercest denunciation of the administration
in Congress may therefore be expected from
the members hailing from the border States.
IL Is worth while to observe how the vote
stands iuethe following great States:--

Our HARpoR DEFENcEs. is one point
in Governor Seymour's first letter which we
hope President Lincoln has not wholly over
looked. That point is General Wool's account
Of the miserable condition of our harbor
defences. The veteran General says that a
thousand men might have captured oil the
forts in our harbor, and that any rebel privateer
might have sailed past our defences and
bombarded the city with impunity. This is a
most disgraceful record The condition of our
harbor dsfences is better now than it was when
General Wool wrote; but there is still very
great room for Improvement. VIII the Presi
dent wake ap Secretary Stanton and inform him
of these ixcts? Where would the administration
and the government be if the rebels held New
York! That would be even worse for all par
ties than the martial law which the radicals are
SO anxious to enforce.

JHE RADICALS AND THE Com No STATE ELEC
TIoNS-The radicals, in issuing Aeir call for q
State Convention on the Sd Of September, an
nounced themselves as being the Union party,
when every person knows that their doctrines
lead to revolution and disunion It however
makes but little difference what they call
themselves; their resolutions will show plainly
enough the grade Of niggerheadsm that they
have reached. 1t is rumored that Thurlow
Weed has rolled up his sleeves and is at work,
determined to lay the radicals out in their own
convention. 1t is not, therefore, at all impro-
bable that, with the assistance of Secretary
Seward, he may accomplish his object at SYRIA
cuse, and thus secure the denunciations of the
radical theory relative to the return of the
Southern States by the republican party in
convention assembled. The public may look
for some rich developments If Weed goes to
work in earnest as it is rumored he has,
Whilst this peculiar state of affairs exists in
the republican party, the under current among
the opposition factions does not indicate happy
family in that quarter. The radicals on that
side of the house, better known as copperbeads,
are pushing their dangerous iniquities and
hellish doctrines with as great pertnacity as
the niggerhead radicals are theirs. The
Democratic State Convention, which assemblies
at Albany on the 9th Of September, promises
to be fully as tragic as that of the republicans
at Syracuse. 1t is not at all improbable that it
will break up into fragments, after the fashion
of the Charleston Convention. The idea of the
representatives Of Tammany Hall meeting with
the copperheads and extreme men of Mozart
Hall and some OF the outside clubs is somewhat
prcposterous. We should not be surprised il
Tammany Hall, in order to save its Union SEN
timents and national principles, was forced to
place before the people an independent ticket,
on platform like that which was recently en-
dorsed by the people of Kentucky.

MAKING THE MosT OF THNGs.-The London
Times draws great comfort from the New York
riots. In an article copied elsewhere il ex-
presses the hope "that this pleasant state Of
things will be duly reported in Ireland, in
order that every Irishman may know that upon
setting foot upon the quay OF New York he is
liable to be marched off to some hill, pass or
earthwork, or swamp, where he will be passed
at once to the front, and have an even chance
Of being shot down or manned for lifs.r The
Times has long been laboring to impress this
belief on the Irish mind. How has 1t sue
ceeded? The enormous increase which has
taken place in Irish emigration within the last
two years presents the answer. The Irish fear
neither the recruiting sergeant nor the draft.
On the contrary, the nearer English cupi-
dity and insolence. bring us to o rupture with
their old enemy, the greater seems to be the
incentive to emigration. Ia war with Great
Britain were to be declared tomorrow there Is
not an abls-boded Irishman in the United
States that would not take up arms to avenge
the expressions that he and his forefathers have
sustained at her hands. The strongest induce
ment, therefore, that the Times can hold out to
the Irish TO smigrate Is to continue to utter
such provocations to the American people as
are likely to put term to1khe patience with
which they have endured the insults of the
English press.

Life Insurance.


Every investment that will make a
certain provision for mans family,
or for his own declining years is wor-
thy of careful consideration. The
caprice of fortune is proverbial, many
who are rich one day are poor the
next, and loss of health, and even
of life, ends a train of misfortunes
which deprives family of its resour-
ces and protector; and adds to the
misery of poverty, the despair which
a great grief and a sense of help
lessness only can create. Wepropose
in a series of articles, to explain
an investment which will provide
against these results, and we feel that
this will be of interest to all classes
of society-to the wealthy rs well as
the poor; to the professional man as
well as to merchants and mechanics;
to the old as well as to the young; to
citizen Of the town or city, as well
as to the farmer; and in view of this
fact, we ask the attention of all.
The highest economy is to eypend
means judiciously, and if way is
provided by which man who makes
but $50 a year, can provide a com
Portable legacy for his family, he will
be apt to make it. Or if father, by
