The NEXT CoNGREss.-We hope
the following predictions of the Gin
cinnati Enquirer may prove correct /;
but doubt it:
"A gain of twenty-five members of
Congress will make a majority in the
next House against the Jacobins.
They will be secured, Two wild be
gained in Connecticut, seven or eight
in New York, one in New Jersey, six
in Pennsylvania, two or three in Mary
land, Ohio will increase her repre-
scntation nine or ten.at least, and In
diana will add three or four to the
list. In Kentucy, we shall gain two
perhaps three. Illinois is booked
for four or five, v isconsin for two and
Michigan for two. In Missouri, there
will be a gain of five or six. This
makes forty-fvc, or twenty more than
is required. The House, under this
computation, would stand: Present
anti-Jacobins, As; to elect as gains,
As; Southern excluded members, SO.
Total l40.
"This would leave the Jacobins l0l
members, who would be in a glorious
minority of 80. A majority against
them in the next House, according to
the present aspect of affairs, is'a cer-
tainty."

Pittsburg Radical Convention,

PITTsBURG, So, tembcr 27.-The
proceedings of the Convention yester-
day were attended with several anus
ing speeches ridiculing the President,
which was listened TO with favor.
Resolutions were proposed pertinentto
the President. General Butler made
a characteristic speech, and General
Wells denounced the Cleveland Con-
vontion as made up from stragglers
of the army. 4. A.despatch was reoeiv-
ed from General Fremont which met
with three cheers for him. Butler
was the lion of the Convention.
Among the resolutions offered by Col.
Sleight was ono asking Congress to
direct the Pesident to remove from
the late rebel States all arms and mu-
nitions Of war not needed for the
present use there, was adopted, with
one votein the negative, being the
first vote cast of this nature in the
Convention it created quite a sensa-
ton. Resolutions also endorsing the
Constitutional amendment and a Sc
rics of tho widest terms ever granted
to subdued, people. That the Prcsi-
dent has nc right to policy as
against the legislative department. of
the government. ,.s4 ,jyvg
General Butler in his remarks, said
as soon as the committees have shown
o desire to be received back in an
humble way for the clcmency held out
to them, because it was for men who
have erred to be humble when they
acknowledge their mistake be receiv-
ed, but not until then. Mr.. Davis is
bS no means the worst man in the
Southern Gonfcderacy, but he chose
to have the place of.a representative
man, he played for an empire and
staked his life on tho result, and let
him pay the forfeit. (Applause.) Let
it be known for all time that no man
shall plot against the Union in the
halls of Congress of the United States.
(Applause.) General Lee left the
army of the United States and went
to Virginia and was at the head of
the rebel forces of Virginia before his
State seeded, and, carried her out at
point of the bayonet.
Now, gentlemen, we had an Arnold,
and he escaped punishment,s but he
did not hemain here. We have, as it
seems to mo an equally guilty traitor.
The Question to be decided in this in-
stance is, whether his surrender as
a prisoner of, war when he was captur-
ed shall avail him against the folds
of his flag, to take service on the side
of the enemies of his country. (Cries
of mo, no.) aii Eek 81 a'4,' =
l therefore again say, Iwould make
an example of this man,so that no solder
hereafter should eyer ,befopnd against
the flag of his country. (Goods and
cheers.) Now, then, fellow soldiers,
what shall be done with the soldier
who deserts his flag, and takes with
him the scorns of his commanderl
(Cries Of hang him shooting is too
good for him.) Who deserts fol
the purpose of taking command, or
bribed by a higher command, in the
army of the enemies of his cotintry.''

THE human body falls asleep by de-
grees, according to M. Cabins, a French
psychologist. The muscles of the legs
and arms lose their power before those
that support the head, and these last,
sooner than those that support the back;
and he illustrates this by the cases Of
persons who fall asleep on horseback,
or while sitting or walking. He con-
ceives that the sense of light sleeps first,
then the sense of taste, next smell, and
lastly that of touch.
