The Fortieih Congress-

To this body the people of the
United States are now looking with
steaoy gaze, for relief from the finan
cial evils that now surround us; from
its hands the people earnestly expect
a remedy for all our evils, a balm for
all our woes. In this, no doubt,
many require more than it were pos
sitle for any body Of men on earth
to give. There is, however, one dis
tinctive feature of the present Con-
gress which promises more for the
healing Of our national disease than
any yet provided, and that is rigid
economy and retrenchment wherever
possible. The cutting off of all un-
necessary appropriations and need
less expenditures, the removal of un
worthy officers from place, it seems
to US, will Of itself do much toward
bringing the country back to \
healthy circulating medium, and OBJ
viate many of the difficulties attend
ing q sudden transition from one
policy to another.

The Senatorship in Maine has excited
not a little interest in other parts of the
country, from the fact that ex>Vice Presi-
dent Hamla is a candidate. The failure
to renominate him with Mr. Lincoln in
1864, and his resignation of the Boston
Colleciorship after Mr.. Johnson's deiec>
ton in 1866, have led To the hope that be
would be returned to the Senate, as at least
a partial compensation. The vote in eau
Gus was very close between Mr. Hamlin
and Mr. Morrill,, the former receiving sew

four. One blank vote was cast. There

Editing In the FAR West" seems to be
q process of knitting as well as scissor>
ing" The editor of the Owykee Avd-
idache informs his readers that ''the other
day, while quietly seated in our sanctum,
two villains, one armed with Q Ratchet,
and the other with Bowie knife, Inade q
violent attack upon our person. Nothing
appalled,, we seized knife about two feet
long, used for cutting paper, and bled our
assailants freely. They sued for mercy"
One naturally inquiries for the reason of SO

us that 1t took place merely because we

Lence, after the debt had been retrieved

As it Is folly to pull down, without sug-
costing anything better to take its place,
he will then venture TO speak Of the requi>

and which were outlined in the Gazette
communication. AT present he is permit,
ted TO express his belief that all the dis
cuss;on, fuss and confusion periodically
raised on the subject of finance arises from
the connection between the Government
and the banking business. That connec,
ton has always existed, either with the
State or Federal Government. and been
the most fruitful source of political com
