ASSEMBLING OF CONGRESS- last session of
the thirty ninth Congress will assemble at the Fed
eral Capitol on Monday next, and will, doubtless,
continue its sitting until it expires by limitation on
the 4th of March next. Since their adjournment
last summer grave questions involving the policy
of the government have been submitted to the peo-
pie for their decision at the ballot box. The popu-
lar will, as thus expressed, has sustained the posi-
ton taken by the present Congress at its first ses
sion, and that body will now re-assemble with the
firm determination TO abate not jot or title of
the conditions imposed by the policy thus sanction
ed by the people. This condition of things at the
Capitol of the nation, is creative of much interest
IN the public mind, to the probable action of the
Executive branch of the Government, and a stormy
and exciting session is anticipated by many. 1t is
stated that the Executive message has been prepar
ed and is raedy for delivery on the assembling of
Congress, and that looks though there was no
intention to depart from the usual routine and Gus
tom in that respect. What the recommendations
OF that message may be, or how they may agree or
disagree with the policy marked out by Congress,
and sanctioned by the people at their late elections
Is not, of course now known to the public. And it
is this uncertainty, aud the general understanding
that the President is firm and determined in ad-
herring TO his policy, Congress is in adhering to
the policy they have adopted, that has given rise to
the teversh and unsettled feeling existing in the
public mind. Another week will probably disclose
sufficient to form an opinion whether the co-ordi-
nate branches of the Government are to remain
divided or whether they will cooperate in the adop
ton of measures for the pachcation and onward
progress of the nation 1t is tolerably evident that
there will be no compromise. 1t is not probable
that the future partisan spouers will hereafter say
OF the present Congress. or of the next Congress,
that after demanding the adoption of radical
policy, they signed a sneaking compromise" as
some have falsely said of President Jackson, in
relation to the notification of South Carolina. We
venture the opinion however. that there will be no
Impeachment of the President, no resort to war
but steady pressing forward in the course indica-
ted, backed by the silent bat powerful will of the
people TO victory as thorough that pressed
forward to by Sheridan at Appomatox Court House.
There is good and sufficient cause for inaugural
ing another civil war. and ii is believed those in
authority will use all due moderation in admins
terng the government, and if so. the close of an
other November, will find us as a nation, ENJOYING
another Thanksgiving, as that of last Thursday was
enjoyed. ...- ,.,--.,

be sent to Jail. Dabney Is poor man, and
probably never had $54 at one time, and of
course could not pay the scoundrels the
sum demanded. They then took his horse
and wagon to satisfy their demand, The
leader Of the part" told Dabney that as
soon as he paid the SOL he could have his
property, and that in the meantime they
would take the horse and-wagon to their
headquarters. Since then-nOthiDg has been
heard of the horse and wagon, aud the old
man is left without any means to make his

He recognized one Of the party as niah

are on the track of the Loyal Leaguers,
