Tho Closing Congress.


close the third session of the Forty-sec-
ond Congress. The session, and Con-
gress, to be exact, closes precisely at the
hour of twelve at noon on Tuesday, the
4th day of March, although the session
of today, in accordance with all preceu-
ents, accomplishes all legislation. Inc
nractice has been, and will, probably,
continue At this time to protract tins
evenings session until a late hour to-
morrow morning, dispose OF such busl-
mss as they can in hurry, and then
hold a formal session of a few minutes
ar an hour, Tuesday, in which to pre-
mare for the Inauguration, so that, prac-
tical1y. this will be the last day Of the
present Congress. This session, as well

publican party contrived to consume the
time of Congress in unayailing assaults
on General Grant, and to let public bus
mess pass over to the present session.

French arms and other investigations,
the Credit MObilicr scandal was started,
duplicating, among others, the Speaker
of educational House of Representatives,
lance G. Blaine, of Maine. Instead Of
diving with the campaign, at the opening
