Earnest Legnslatisn.

There is sometimes virtue In ina
king haste slowly" and the indioa-
Iions are that this extra session OF
Congress has made the discovery,
and adopted the principle, and
were bound to win renown if there
was any IN store for that kind of
fidelity. Last week Wednesday
the House adjourned over TO attend
the great races at Baltimore, as is
freely asserted and not denied.
But unfortunately the horse race
announced for Wednesday ad-
jOurned to Thursday, and the great
body of Southern members, OF whom
it may be truthfully said, would
sooner miss a morning prayer IN
the House than a horse race, were
in quandary. If they ran away
on Thursday, the day to which the
race was postponed, the wicked Re
publicans might take advantage
of their absence and vote in the
Colorado member. Such neglect
of duty-to the party, could not be
thought of, and as Tom Scott had
rendered 'the boys" free train to
Baltimore, his generosity was fur
ther strained by a request to hold
his train till the House could meet
Thursday noon and adjourn over
for that day also, which was done
of course, and as consequence the
race course at Baltimore was
adorned by orators and statesmen to
a most liberal degree. This may
not be deemed, the most proper
thing for the American Congress to
do, but south of Mason and Dixon's
line such an event is looked upon as
joyful return of the halcyon days of
Calhoun and Harry Clay, when a
noted horse race, or cattle show, or
circus would draw the Old-time
statesmen fifty leagues away from
the capital. The next Congress
ional gossip is,- that having ad-
journed to attend a horse race, it
was proposed, and according to
precedent, to adjourn over to Mon
day, because Friday and Saturday |
"Only Greatest Show on
Earth" was to exhibit at the capi-
tai city. Underlying all this,
which might, perhaps, be consid-
cred as badinage, is the undeniable
fact, that in the absence of the an
of the House Commit
tees by Speaker Randall, there real
y was no organized business in
'eadiness to be acted upon.
