The Next Meeting of Congress.


when the next session, and the last, of the First
Congress will commence. Some suppose Con-
gress will meet in December some in January
The Constitution of the Confederate States
provides Art. |, Sec. ~:
"The Congress shall assemble at least once
in every year; and such meeting shall be on
the first Monday in December, unless they
shall, by law, appoint different day."
The Congress have no: by any law of gem
era application, appointed different day for
their annual assemblagcs. They met on an
other day last winter, but it was under a law
limited to the special occasion. On their last
adjournment they specified no day for their
next meeting. The Constitution, therefore,
determines the time and it is the first Monday
in December.
On the 9TH Of December, therefore, Con-
gress will meet in Richmond.
LINCOLN President FOR LIFE.-The New
York Sunday Mercury, of the goth nit, pub
fishes letter from Washington correspondent,
who says that it has been determined to post
pone the next Presidential election until after
tion ofthe Union. The reason he assigns for
this bold movement is, that the Constitution
requires all the States, to vote, and that in the
present condition of the country it is impossi>
bic to comply with the requirement.

An occasional correspondent of the London
Ne'0s, writing from Constantinople, says there
are 100000 Circassians and the surrounding
tribes, with an equal number of Tarars and
Georgians, ready to take the field against Rus
sia with any power that chooses to direct their
operations. The Russians know this and ex-
pect every day rising of the hostile tribes by
which they arc surrounded.
1t was excellent advice which President Da-
Wis gave to the citizens of Klnston, in North
Carolina, when he told them to take care of
their Confederate Money, that it would be Of
full value after while. Many persons are

several years ago, on the subject of fighting.
True as preaching, isn't it?
"ln the matter OF fighting there is one thing

Jackson of the same way of thinking, and that
is, depend less on folks who say they are ready
to shed the last dlop of their blood, than on
folks that are ready to shed the first drop.

speeches in Congress, with the right of free
