does Mr.. Seward, and whenever he does
take occasion to speak, he will make it
plain that there is but one minister of for
eign affairs in this country.
In truth it may as we'll be understood,
first as last, that the Congress, and it's
members, have nothing to do with the real
government of the country, which is vest
ed and exercised by the cabinet, assisted
by the President. It might have been
otherwise, but the congressman, Or ma
jority of them, wasting their force in seek
ing offices and contracts for their local
friends and supporters, are not in condi-
ton to stand up in their places to oppose
anything which is seriously desired by the
cabinet ministers, of whom they are con-
stantly begging favors. Mr.. Sumner is in
this respect with the minority. He is not
an arraot ofice-beggar. But this will rem
der his humiliation all the more gratifying
to those who rule through patronage.
