March will in great measure b, due 70 their

March will in great msasare be due TO their
labors.
The procession, made up Of the best-drilled
military organizations in the United States
and tho most celebrated political clubs, will
be very grand display. The greatest desire
to sec the West Point and Annapolis cadets,
as well as the crack companies from New
York and elsewhere, Is generally expressed,
and we feel sure that the high expectations
that have been raised regarding their appear
ancC as soldiers will not be disappointed when
the day arrives. II Is admitted on all sides
that the ball will totally eclipse In grandeur
and numbers any previous effort Of the kind.
Certainly, the preparations for the affair arC
most complete and 1t now rests with thoso
who purpose to attend II to increase the bril-
lIancy which Is sure to reign. Several Of the
State associations, Ito which, by the way,
great credit Is due for the interest they have
manifested and the systematic manner In
which they have afforded cooperative aid J
propose to give grand balls on the evening Of
the 4th.
From present appearances wo arc inclined
to regard inauguration day as mlsnomer.
II should be inauguration week, forit seems
that, with balls, parties, military displays
and social receptions the attractions will
cover oil Of the coming week. On the even.
ing Of the 5th the proposed masquerade will
come of in the ball building, and as great an
attendance as that which will favor Its more
exclusive companion Is generally bcspoken
for It, Then, during the week comes long
line Of such Affairs under various auspices,
many Of which arc only now taking shape.
The week will be one Of the greatest gaicty-a
fitting close to our unprecedented season Of
fashion and most suitable Inauguration Of
an Administration which, by It's past policy,
gives tho best assurance Of Its coming success.

OUR READERS should be very careful In
forming an opinion of the governmental mud
die in Louisiana by the dispatches from that
State which arc printed Just now. We do
not wish TO be understood as impugning the
journalistic characters Of the press agents In
that section, but Just at this time the greatest
endeavors are being made by the agents Of
the Warmoth faction to favorably impress
Congress. First comes dispatch saying that
everything Is chaos, business Is suspended,
&c; then comes another announcing that the
Mardi Gras Notwithstanding this state Of
affairs) was never so celebrated; then still an
other giving the alarming news that Gov
WarmOth's McEnery is about to organize
militia force to drive out the Kellogg govern
mcut, and fight the United States unless Con-
gress yields to his demands. To make use
Of slang phrase, the last Is entirely too
thin"

THE DANGER OF AN EXTRA SESSION.

The assertions made by General Butler aud
Mr. Sargent In the House last night were not
intended merely to frightcn the House into
more rapid disposition Of the credit mobillcr
business, but was prompted by firm belief
In view Of the fact that three days have al
ready been Lost In the House and that more
may be lost, that necessity for an extra scs-
sion already exists. Senator Thurman and
other leading Democrats, who take an unim-
FASHIONED II not an bipartisan view OF the
case, arc of the same opinion. It is now pro-
posed that II this necessity becomes more ap-
parent on Monday, law shall be passed un-
der a suspension of the rules convonlng the
Forty-third Congress within two or three
weeks aftei the Inauguration. This will re-
liovc the President Of all responsibility and
insure the assembling Of the new Congress
without delay, all the members to 1t having
been elected except those from the States Of
New Hampshire and Connecticut.

THE FARRAGUT STATUE,

A few days ago We printed an article In re-
gard TO the models for the Farragut statue
now on exhibition In the Capitol, In which
We said that, with the exception Of pos
slbly one, (Which Is not Winnie Rcam's,) no
one Of them was worthy Of the subject or Of
to be accepted. We had not OF the time seen
the model OF Professor Stone, which Is at the
navy yard, nor have we had the opportunity
since, but II tho opinion Of gentlemen who
are fully competent TO form an opinion on
the subject be worth anything, his Is iu-
nnitcly superior to anything on exhibition,
which is not saying much, but II Is In every
sense truly great work. During the last
few days we have received numerous COM
the dead admiral and revere his memory all
of them bcstowing the most unqualified
praise upon Mr.. stones work. We have
room for only one, which will be found In
another column.
While upon the subject we desire to say O
few words personal to Mr.. Stone. lie was

order be given to him. But In the meantime
active and energetic lobbyists, who have mis-.
taken their vocation as artists, stepped In
and had another resolution passed throwing
tho work open to competition. Hence the
mass Of rubbish In the Capitol at the present
time. Mr.. Stone has from the very begin.
ming declined to enter into contest or to re.
sort to the petty and unprofesslonal tricks oi
those who have constituted themselves his
rivals. He has not used any political in.
aucncc or taken pains to advertise his work
through the columns of the newspaper press
lie has from first to last acted the part OF q
true artist and gentleman. We say this for
him without any solicitation on his part OF
the part Of any one of his friends, but solely
because we know that the facts arc what We
have stated them to be.

TILE EINArGrnATInN

UnquestlOnably the approaching inaugu-
ration Of General Grant will exceed, both In
the grandeur Of It's display and the number Of
It's visitors, any Of Its predecessors, while in
political significance Ii will fall below none
that have taken place since that one which
placed the Father Of his Country in its chair
of state. Then our Government was an ex-
pertinent, made by u few oppressed colonists
who weak but hopeful, poor but full Of faith,
had come out Of long and dreadful struggle
with proud and powerful kingdom, wres'-
ing from 1t tho great independence which
millions low enjoy. But I've. the people, 4"
were under the guidance Of great and good
men In those dark days; men whom the ur-
gent necessities Of the times produced as
quickly as they were required. To the wis
dom of Washington, the statecraft of Jcder-
son, the brllliancy of Alexander Hamilton,
and the philosophy Of the Pennsylvania
printer much OF our present great prosperity
Is directly attributable. The first days Of the
republic were fraught with peril, for a pOlt-
ical mistake, however slight 1t at arst appeared
TO be, might before many years prove very
disastrous to the young Government. There
was but one legacy which gave us trouble,
but that trouble-that unpleasautuess we
should nov call twas overcome by the
great loadsr, who for another term Is hon
orod by the party, the wishes Of which both
on the battle and on the political field, he has
served 50 faithfully.
At another and more appropriate time we
may speak Of the political importance Qt-
taching to the coming Inauguration, for we
have now 10 do with the preparations that
have SO extensively been made under the dl-
rection Of the general committee. Some of
tho gentlemen composing the committee
have been working most cnergctIcally, for,
AS Is always tho case, the hard drudgery of
has not been equally divided.
Those who assumed the responsibility, to the
yreat relief Of the figure heads with high
oundlng names aud titles, are men OF en-
rgy and skill and whatever success In the

The Crime of senator Pomeroy's As.ull.
lBy the Hon. Caleb cushing.I

Now, there are some crimes which gentleman
may commit, such as treason, or even OCCASION
ally assasslnatons OF vendetta or Of honor; other
crimes belong TO natures so mean as 70 be be-
meath anger, such as common theft; but there is
another class Of crimes Of vulgar, low, british
order such as forgery, cheating and rape,
which disgust and repe. Such Is the crime
20 commit by the hand Of YOrke, a crime
one degree baseT than that OF which Rohra-
bacher was convicted; for burglary has an
element Of physical courage In II which
does not appertaln TO this conspiracy to swlndle

spratOrs are friends Of education, fOrsOOth /;

Mosr OF oUR READERS will remember that
the venemous warfare upon Senator Pomeroy
was begun by the publication in a disreputa-
bic journal Of fac simile Of letter pur-
ported to have been written by Mr.. Pomeroy
to Mr.. Ross, Of Kansas. We have been
shown documentary evidence Of the best
character which proves that the letter In
question was never written by Mr.. Pomeroy,
and Is nothing more or less than forgery.

THE LOGIC Of the Times on tho credit mo-
bilicr is terscly stated by itself as follows;
"In order to save few Republic ans, is 1t
worth while to run the risk Of running the
Republican party7" If the Republican party
can be ruined by dealing out equal and exact
justice to all men, the sooner 1t is ruined the
better. The policy tho Times would have
tho party pursue only demonstrates Its utter
inability to lead the party. Evidently, 1t is
policy, not principle, with the journal that
assumes to hold the place Of the old Tribune
