aarine.

When 1t became certain that Europe
must be involved in q great var-that
France and Prussia were irremediably
committed to 1t, and the probabilities
strong for the involvement Of other
Powers-Gen. Grant, who had been CIV
ing the matter attention before, and bad
previously called the attention of Con-
gress to the subject, again urged Con-
gress to consider the necessity for some
action to encourage the building mp OF
the American merchant service. In view
Of the resolution to adjourn on the 18th.
considering the momentous Importance
Of late events in Europe, the President
called upon Congress to delay the sd-
journment, to take action looking to the
restoration of the prestige and prosperity
Of the merchant service, which had been
broken down by the piracies nourished
by the British Government during the
late war.

to prosper, take advantage of fortuitous
opportunities as they present themselves

Belgium and Holland, with an eye on
the preparations of Russia fitting for an
inroad on Turkey, and with Ireland turn
ing q strong list toward France, England
would be able to see the justice of our
demands, and make restitution for de-
spelling our commerce, while the proper
encouragement from Congress would
have the effect to run mp the Stars and
Stripes over hundreds of ships Of foreign
build, and secure this Country the carry
ing trade Of the nations.
But Congress adjourned on time; and
though ever in the time left it could have
legislated to this purpose it did not; and
the Fall elections must now be looked to.
