The Meeting Of Congress To-Dny-A Hor.
nets Nest.

nets Nest.
Congress reassembles at Washington to-day.
There seems to be some question as to the
attendance of quorum in either house,
but as the presiding officers are pre-
SENT and as it is within their power to
them from day to day until majority Of
the Senators and Representatives appear in
their seats, there is little doubt of the resump-
ton of legislative business. It is stated that
the judgment OF the more prudent and SEN
sbe republicans favors an immediate re-
adjournment until October, so as to prevent
the reopening of agitating questions, while at
the same time providing against any sudden
coup dGtat on the part of Andrew johnson in
favor of the democratic candidates in the
approaching election. This idea of the neces
sity of watching the President indicates want
Of confidence in the result of the pending con-
test, which. If felt by the leaders of the repub-
lican party, is not shared in by the people.
The Tenure of Office law-an encroachment of
the legislative power on the constitutional
province Of the Executives of itself an un-
popular measure, and the country would
rejoice to see il abolished tomorrow, so that
the whole brood of official plunderers who
have been preying on the government for the
past two or three years might be turned adrift
and driven to honest labor for living. But
this is matter of little moment just at this
time In the present situation of affairs
nothing that President Johnson might do with
the federal patronage could aid the lost cause
of the democracy or prevent the election of
Grant; and, consequently, the odiceholders
and whskey rings are the only persons inter
ested in the determination of Congress to hold
monthly sessions in order to tie mp the hands
of the Executive and prevent him from making
use of the power of suspension during long
recess.
The important question for the republican
party is whether Congress can manage to ad-
Journ after reassembling without drawing a
hornets nest about its ears and creating grave
trouble for its friends. The Southern recon-
structed members who took their seats at the
close OF last session signalized their admission
by violent attempt TO galvanize the rotten
corpse OF impeachment, and evinced restless,
vindictive spirit during their few weeks Of Iegis-
lativc duty which, considering their peculiar
position, was both impolitic aud indecent. II
may be difficult matter now 10 restrain them
from rushing rabidly into legislation TO nullify

Mr. ROEBUoK AND Mr. REvERDY JOHNSON. -
Mr.. Roebuck is one of those men whom
most men have met He is brave and out
spoken, favorite with the masses, but one of
the last men to be trusted in circumstances of
any delicacy. On the occasion of the recent
Sheffield dinner Mr.. Roebnck, in the presence
of the American Minister, spoke Of the United
States, if not with bitterness at least with
criminal recklessness of statement Mr.
Johnson, who is gentleman, snubbed
''Tearem" in proper but digniied manner
on the following day. The London press, the
Times at their head, have properly rebuked
Mr.. Roebuck. Mr.. Roebuck has written to
the Times explaining his language and stating
that the American Minister and he are the
best of friends and thoroughly understand
each other. The Times has since acknow-
lodged the receipt of Mr.. Roebuck's letter.
The burden of the Times reply amounts to
this-that Mr.. Johnson is gentleman and that
Mr. Roebuck is not.

TRIAL or SuREATT.-To-day is the ap-
pointed occasion for the trial Of Surratt. In
this case the government is in an rncomfort-
able position. II desires to give up the charge
of murder against the prisoner, and II 1t thus
admits that the civil courts cannot convict
Surratt Of that crime il strengthens the notion
that Surratt's mother was unjustly deprived Of
life. And the counsel of prisoner seem 80
confident of the good result Of another trial on
the murder charge that they contend the gov
ernment can hold their client on no other. In
the capture of Surratt as in the capture of
JEFF Davis, the government went u great ways
and paid great deal of money TO secure en-
barrassmcnt; and the cause of justice would
have been better served in the escape of both
men, since their capture seems likely to illus
trate That there is under the law absolute i'm
] munity for certain great crimes.

PEACE PALAvER. Tomorrow the Euro
pean Peace Congress meets at Berne,
in Switzerland. 1t may therefore be re-
garded as tolerably certain that there
will soon be war in Europe. War always fol-
lows closely on the assemblages and chatter
ings of the long haired fellows whose philan-
thropy takes the direction of endeavor to
secure perpetual peace. The meetings Of these
fellows are sort of unconscious indication
that one phase of thought in Europe gives
of the sudden coming of war. Even the
little Garibaldian squirt against Rome that
ended at Montana was preceded by peace
palaver at Geneva, in which Garibaldi took
part and promised to keep the peace after all
the priests were out of Italy. That is the way
with the rest, too. There will be no more war
when everybody has everything just as he
wants it. Unfortunately, the peace meetings
cannot prevent war in that way, for they al
ways break up in row.

the foolish acts Of the Georgia Legislature and
probably to force military absolutism again
upon all the reconstructed States until after
the elections. Such course would needlessly
agitate the country and furnish new capital to
the now bankrupt and hopeless democracy.
The sensible men of Congress should resolutely
resist all attempts to proceed to legislative
business aud adjourn as speedily as possible.
lfleft to themselves the people will take care
ences, and with General Grant as President of
the United States, reconstruction, tenure of
Office laws, copperheads, rebels, radicals, car
pet-baggers and scalawags will all be swept
away ia body and become things of the past.
