CONGRESS.
The same dispatch says it is probable that
Congress will adjourn from Wednesday un-
til Monday next, partly in consequence Of
the National Thanksgiving which inter
venes, but chiefly to give the Speaker time
to make up the committees, which requires,
this term, unusual deiberatiOn.

vices say that the South Carolina re-sssem-
bled on Tuesday last, and proceeded to
count the votes for Governor, which stood
9, ,92s for / L. Orr, and 9,I86 for Wade
Hampton. There was no opposition TO the
election of W. S. Porter for Lieutenant Gov
ernor There is some question respecting
the re-assembling of the State Convention
to perfect certain work for which the Legis-
lature is incompetent General Sickles is
said to be in communication with Governor
| Perry on the subject, but the latter is in
favor of deferring it until after the Inaugu-
sation of the Governor elect 1t is under
stood that the business of the session viii be
principally local, unless Congress admits
South Carolina delegation to their seats.
The prospect of their exclusion creates
much feeling and some bitterness.

Mr.. Willis, in the Home Journal was at
the reception to General Grant in New
York. He writes thus of him: q But, in
the brief period of the Generals personal
inaction, seated in that arm chair before
he was addressed by the Master Of Cere-
monies for the beginning Of the Intro
ductions, / found my study Of him ma
terially altered. His inf1lova5Leness Is
a0OndeTfHl. There is no betrayal of a
nerve. His eye is as calm as a new moon.
and, when he crosses a leg, it is-for some
time. But his eyelids never stir, and.
when you fully meet his look, YOU feel
yOurself-understood. His beard is coarse
and wiry-luxuriant and unrefned-and
it mats together under his Jaw, with a
straight line of repOse which is simply an
expression of strength and silence. His
nose is not well shaped, and his profile
consequently is not good; but 1 never in
my life saw a. face which had in both front
and side views, such a soLidity of nlagaG,s-
unity and honesty. For head, human
yet without weakness, his will be, some
day, venture to predict the seulptor's
ideal.

comparatively free from temptations, vices and
those almost numberless things that withdraw

The report expresses the opinion that
the time will soon come when the increas-
ing prosperity of the country, and the
consequent increased business of the de-

reduction be carried out as fast as possible
without reducing the postal revenue be-
low the postal expenses.

Enlargement of the New York Times.

Enlargement OF the new AOEA EAA"es
On Monday morning last the New York
Times made its appearance in an enlarged
form. 1t has added a column to each page
and increased the length of the pages, SO
that the total enlargement is equivalent to
about twelve columns. 1t is now the
largest paper in the United States, and the
largest in the world with the exception OF
the London Times, which is of the same
size with its New York namesake. We re-
ioiee at this evidence that the Times is
prospering. 1t is in many respects the
ablest and best paper in the country, and,
despite the pretensions of the New York
Herald, the representative American
newspaper.
