With the pressure Of long-ncglcctcd busi-
ness crowding the work Of hours into every
minute up 10 the stroke of twelve the Forty
fifth Congress yesterday came to its end.
Tho spectacle of the past forty-eight hours
occurs once in two years, and the country
has ceased to regard it with establishment.
The late Congress came in with HAYES
md Fraud. Going out it leaves HAYES in
the Office to which Fraud is his title. The
fact that It has failed b. exercise its cunsti-
tutional power to undo the work which Nc
Lis has confessed, and for which MADISON
WELLS and n hundred other conspirators
have been rewarded, stands g. the rcproach
and the disgrace Of the Forty-lfth Congress.
The people have been accustomed 10 OK
pect that the first Congress OF a Presidential
term will do honest and hard work, leaving
t. its successor the elcctioneering that pre-
codes n national election. Unfortunately,
the Forty-nfth Congress hus sought 10 an
tlcipate the functions Of the Forty-sixth.
and, consequently, the pages of it, recorda are
Cncumbered with mere stun, while the
greater part Of the real business has been
pushed into the last hours Of the session,
when haste is pcrlluus.
This Congress has done some things
which should be set down 10 its credit It
defeated JAW GoULp's attempt to cheat the
Government out Of millions due the Treas
ury from the Pacific railroad corporations.
IT has shown, SO far as the House Is con-
celned, a very steady and praiseworthy hos
tihty To private jobs Tho most impudent
Of these jobs, that pushed by JoHN Roach
the most impudent of jobbcrs, passed the
Senate, but was killed in the House 10y n
majority as crcditable rs it was unexpected.
This Congress has also saved the people
some hundreds Of thousands Of dollars by
consolidating the three so-called Govern
ment surveys Of Western mountains and
deserts, and by refusing to vote further sup
Illo5 TO the ridiculous Washington Mouu-
ment enterprise
1t must be remembered that it was tho
Forty-iifth Congress, during its second se7-
sion, that passed the House resolution di-
rccting the POTTER Committee to unearth
and exhibit the details Of the electoral
crime Of 1876, a work that has been fully
patiently, and satisfactorily done.
On the other hand, the same House that
passed the POTTER resolution stultihcd it.

1t is the opinion of Mr.. CHARLES FOSTER
Of Fostoria that the people would hail propo-
sition to abolish Congress entirely. Mr.. FOSTER
is mistaken. Tho people are very tired OF tho
self-secking the partisan rccklessness. the ex-
travagancc. the culpnblc negligence. and the
time-wastlng buncombo OF Congressman; but
that Is different thing from Willingness to
abolish Congress.

A good deal Of attention has been recently
directed to the buffalo. from the fact that he is
being rapidly cXtsrminnted. Yearly thousands
are slain merely for the sake OF their hides
and tongues. and Il is feared that this valuable
animal will soon disappear from tho Western
plains. Col. EZRA MILLER Of Mahwah. New
Jersey. has recently been making experiments
with buffaioes that seem to prove that these ami
mails are even more valuable than has been sup
posed. He has found that common COW can
bc crossed with buffalo bull. there being no
physical obstacle to her bearing n buffalo calf
rs has hitherto been claimed. He has also
proved that the thoroughbred buffalo Is easily
domcsticatcd and easily kept; that the cows
yield milk that will compare fuvoraby with that
Of the best Aderneys. both in quantity and
quality aud that buffalo futtcncd upon such
food as we give our cattle makes excellent beef
All these facts he has demonstrated at his farm
in Mahwah. In his opinion there is profitable
business to be done by establishing buffalo
ranches the plains whore calves can be col
looted. domesticated. and shipped to the East.
