following prophecy: "In one year, with
ordinary ferbearance and less of the poll
tics of faction and more of the larger
practices of patriotism, the American
people will be rich, united and independ.
ent of all the world" This is a consuln-
nation most devoutly to be wished, and
one easily attainable if all put their
shoulders to the wheel and earnestly

Mr.. HAYES seems disposed to keep his
own counsel. He yesterday astonished
all the wiseacres about Washington, in
cludipg all the correspondents of all the
great journals, who pride themselves on
knowing all that is going on inside as
well as outside of Cabinet circles, by
announcing that Congress would be con-
vened on the 18th of October. This news
was telegraphed yesterday TO the GA
zErTE and appeared in our third edition,
while the Philadelphia Telegraph delu-
ded its readers by announcing that Con-
gress would be called to meet "on the
4th of june" and that "the President
never contemplated later date" though
he "mlght have thought an earlier one
would be better" We doubt whether
this correspondent knew anything about
the opinion of the President. The fact j,
there has been NO 'postponement" as til,
papers have it, because the 18th of Octo
Der is the only day that has heen official
lyannounced

grown finely and the grass is so forward
that many Of our dairy farmers have
turned their cows out to pasture. The

THE EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
POSTPONED UNTIL OCTOBER;


WASHINGTON, May 4 As was stated
in a telegram to the DAILY GAZETTE
yesterday, it was decided at the cabinet
meeting yesterday that the extra session
of Congress, rendered desirable by the
failure of last Congress to pass the army
appropriation bill, is not 10 he called to
meet In June xext, but on October To-,
This change of the original programme
was made upon a careful consideration
of the general interests of the country
with the almost unanimous desire of the
business community as well as of the
members of Congress themselves, as far
as they could be consulted, that there
should be no session Of Congress this
summer, and, upon mature inquiry into
all the circumstances of the case. IL was
ascertained that without any immediate
appropriation of money the army could
be- clothed and supplied with all its ne
cessities, and that until the 10Th OF
October only one regular pay day has TO
be passed. II was also considered that II
Congress meets il. October it may remain
in continual session and finish its busi-
ness before next summer, so as to avoid
the Inconvenience of the hot season next
year as well as this. A proclamation cal
ling the extra session ON October 10 is to
issued without delay.
A member of the cabinet says this af-
noon, with reference TO the postpone>
ment of the extra session of Congress,
that to-day's change IN the date for its
comm encement WIS determined upon
solely for the reasons above stated, and
was not in any degree caused by appre-
hension on the part of the administers
ton as to the consequences of an early
congressional discussion of the Presi-
dents Southern policy.
