Gov HAMILTON AND McDoUGALL.-The Wash
neton correspondent of the Virginia Tre,pass,
relates the following There is no doubt that
the Senate as well rs California, will be relieved
when the 4h of March comes. McDougall, or as
he is more commonly called here, - McToodles,
will leave Congressional life.
Let me tell you sharp colloquy and retort in
which lie was party:
About week since the Senator and Gov.
Hamilton of Texas. the leader of the Southern
lovalsts, were in Wizards Hotel. Hamilton was
formerly member of Congress ; he has been and
is a prominent man though the and subse-
oucnt exile have reduced his means and other
wise effected him. The following conversation
occurred
Senator Slightly inebriated) -" Well, Gov
nor, how do you get along?"
Hamilton Poorly, Senator, poorly; am
rather low down now"
Senator I'm id glad of it | wish you
were lower down yet.
Hamilton, who is n man of much natural dig
nity. looked the Senator full in the eyes and
slowly replied
"Well Senator cannot say that wish you
were any lower down than you are"
The shot told. McDougal felt it. He flushed
for a moment and then, with an effort at sobriety
said: "You've got me foul, Governor, good
evening. SIR" and with cavalier wave of the
hand he walked off.

VAsTNEss OF UNITED STATEs.-lIepworth
Dixon of the London AMeneum, for years one of
the most unfriendy Englshmen, has published
a book on his recent visit to the United States,
and it is evident from it that his opinion of our
country and its institutions have been somewhat
revolutionized, and his ideas of geography, too,
have been expanded, MS the following extract
shows 90 Yesl'' The Republic is a big country.
In England we have no lines of sufficient length,
no areas of sufficient width, to convey just idea
of its size. Our longest line is running from
Lands End to Berwick-a line some miles short
er than the distance from Washington to Lexing-
ton Our broadest valley is that of the Thames
the whole of which would lie hidden from
sight in the corner of the Sierra Madre. The
State of Oregon is bigger than England Cali
fornia is about the size of Spain; Texas would
be larger than France if France had won the
frontier of the German Rhine. If the United
States were parted into equal lots, they would
make So kingdoms large rs England, IA en-
pires as large as France. Even the grander figure
of Europe-the seat of our great powers, and as
many lesser powers-a continent which used
to call the world, and fight to maintain in delicate
balance of parts-flils us when we come to
measure in its lines such amplitudes rs those Of
the United States. To wit: from Easfport to
Brownsville is ia arther than from London to Tuat,
in the Grent Sahara from Washington to Astoria
is farther than from Brussels TO kars; from New
York to San Francisco is farther than from Paris
to Bagdad Such measures seem to carry us
away from the sphere Of fact into the realms OF
magic and romance.

THE Power OF CoNGREss.--The Louisville
Journal, johnson organ, in an article on
1.-THE Relations between the President and
Congress seems to be clear-headed as to the
sovereignty of Congress. The editor says =
"Not Il few persons have an impression that the
President may somehow constitutionally take
the remedy into his own hands. The impression
no doubt arises from the consideration that the
President is bound to execute the laws, taken in
connection, with the further consideration that
the Constitution, which is the Fundamental law,
the Congress; whence, as is inferred at the first
blush, the President is bound to enforce the
claim of the several States to representation
This inference, however, will disappear at a sec
ond gance, when it will be seen that the power
under which claim of representation is denied
belongs appropriately to the two Houses. which,
rs constituting independent branch of the
Government, are not responsible to a coordinate
branch for the or abuse of their appropriate
powers. Neither the Executive nor the Judici-
ary can lawfully call Congress 20 account nor
can the Executive and Judiciary combined. The
Executive may veto bill and the Judiciary may
nvalidate the law, but, within the limits of these
checks the Congress is uncontrolled This degree
of the irresponsibility springs from the principle
of the distribution of powers in our political
system, and unquestiOnably whatever temporary
and partial evils flow therefrom is richly COM
pensated by the general and permanent blessings
it assures. We have enjoyed its blessings
throughout our national life, and enjoy them to
day its more grievous evils now for the first
time suffer suffering them, however, with
clear prospect of speedy, thorough and lawful
relief if the people should prove true to them
selves"
