and Cabinsnt have confidence that the policy Just
beginning 70 WORT wiii meet the approval OF the
psoplo They arc willing to giso time for its full
development But the other side desirs inmedi-
ate Judgment, and their organs show and will
continue to show very great disappointment. II
| Is mere than probable that tho postponemcnt from
Juno TO October will thwart most n not all Of
their plans for rebellion and agitation pretty

Tho business mon and farmers Of the country
will welcome this postponcmcnt as OF great ben

prosecute thor plans for tho revival and increase
Of business. Tho Changers will have time TO reap
their crops before any wise or foolish legislation
can Affect their value. These two classes Of citi-
rens being satisfied, there are only the politicians
to and hult, and they are not worth minding
where general public welfare Is to be Affected.
There 10 ono point, however, to which We beg
Mr. Bsrg's attention. II IL gross cruelty an ami.

cred It seems that II will be possible for thom to
l carry on tho Government TIL October without
submitting their policy to the Representatives Of
the people ifthsy simply leave tho army without
pay for two months. Neither,
1--we think, can DO prououpced very credItable
device, since It Is quito certain to infict good
deal Of trouble and distress upon q large body Of
Of public servants, who, after being made odious
and unpopular as tho instruments Of political
conspiracy, are now TO be LETT without their dues,
in order to suit tho political convenience Of the
| Executive.
From the New York Sun, t0ppositon:)
| Fearing to face the indignation Of one party
which he has cheated, asd the wrath Of another
which he has betrayed, tho de- Jaefo President
has decided TO postpone the extra session Of Con-
Rrcss until October. This 10 . bold and . dap
gcrous step upon which he has ventnred. The
| army appropriation will expire on tho soth Of
| MOTT month, and ansr that day not . dollar can
bs lawfully applied to tho support ofthe military
| establishnent II must either DO disbanded,
leaving oar Indisn frontiers exposed to saw
| ages exaspsratod by the numberless frauds and
I abuses Of Q corrupt Indian Bureau, or else It
| must DO supported for at Toast two months and
hall through means unauthorized by law and in
| violation OF tho Constitution. We shall SEQ in
time which horn OF the dilemma the de Jaeio Ad-
| ministration will accept.
