The two old parties in Congress are
undoing the process of dissolution and
laxity of rule which invariably foreshadow
the burial of effete organizations and
the formation of new ones more suited
to the exigencies of the country. An in
telligent Washington correspondent of
the ST. Louis Republican gives the fol
lowing description of their condition. We
will add that the sooner these veteran
parties, which have outlived their use
fulness, and arelagging superfuous on the
stage, shuttle off the mortal coil, the
better it will be for the South. Between
the prescription are extravaganza of the
Radicals on the one hand big and the prom

ocracy ON the other hand-and the dis

the South has had hard time:
From the St. Louis Republican. tDem.)
The strict party caucus has become
disused. There is no back-lying unity
of sentiment and interest upon the lead
ing questions before this Congress to COM
press into harmony the minor differences
of opinion. The Republicans and Demo
Gratis, alike, war among themselves more
than upon each other Partyism, as a
court of last appeal to settle squabbles,
has become obsolete, and even when the
partisan issue was raised the other day in
the case of the contest of Gunter and VIII
shire, the non-elected Republican, slid
into his seat ON the bare casting vote OF
Speaker Blaine, opposed by the very best
Republicans in the house.
This breaking away and disintegration
has manifested itself with increasing plain
ness as the session advanced. 1t has not
been an occasional spasmodic rebellion In
the ranks of the majority, but gradual
process of dissolution in the bodies of both
majority and minority. The debates upon
the appropriation bills, upon the reduc,
ton of the army, upon the transportation
question, and above all, upon the finances
have shown that there are no longer any
parties in Congress except in name. In
! the senate even the Louisiana question
failed to draw the old lines anew, and il
! the house the presidents party failed Il
sustain the presidents pet ring, despite
the efforts of the speaker to whoop them
up to it.
Of course these things have been pa
tent to everybody who has read the dis
patches and the press reports of debates
But they have not been defined to thos'
who have simply read about them, a
alearly az they have to those who havi
heard them upon the door and in the gal
lery, and who have canvassed them in
conversation with the members them
