CONGRESS AND ITS DUTIES.

Congress has been iu session since
the first Of December last Itpossess-
ed a working majority devoted to the
support Of the Government 1t was
expected that it would con6ne itself to
its practical duties TWAS hoped es-
pecially by the dominant party that it
would keep its eye single to the immc-
date wants Of the country Mere
party politics are just now, compare
lively of little or no interest to The
people. Politicians need not define
their positions or spend time in per
sonal debates. Engineering with rcf-
ercnco to the next Presidency Was not
expected of them The main purpose
of Congress and the people is to put
down the rebellion Whatever tends
to accomplish that is acceptable.
Whatever hinders that Is 10 be deplor-
ed. There is enough demanding its
instant attention to grant Congress an
honorable release nom the war OF
words on is own floor The first
things to be looked aitcr are those
things which increase the numbers and
efficiency Of the army and show the
disposition of tho republic to care fol
its brave defenders as for is children
Among the loudly demanded reforms
are raising the pay Of the colored sol
diers up to that of white soldiers, and
new arrangements TO secure the
prompter payment Of the arrears and
pensions due to the families aud rela
tiyes Of those who have fallen Wm
is terribly hard necessity and Con
gress viii be certain to meet the wishe,
of its constituency in whatever it doei
to lessen it's weariness and the suffer
ings Of those engaged ia it,
1t may fairly bequestouod whethe
any permanent good win result 10y dc
batting the various theories of recon
struction, until the military streugtl
Of the rebellion is Totally routed
That end accomplished, then the bees
policy to be adopted may be settled
but not now. The agitation Of ih
question may tend 10 colnplicate ia
issues of the hour and SOW seeds d
dissension.
