From Senator Conkling stand point there
certainly was not any great necessity for the

that Congress has assembled, We are OF the
opinion that all the interests Of the country
would be benefited if it were to continue In

completed What the country wants now, next
to money is rest from political excitement, SO
that the pacific policy Of the President may have
an opportunity to exert its bene6cant effect, and
that can never BE- while the democrats and the
radicals are engaged 10 active hostilities in the

the business be transacted this winter it will be
