The Work OF Con nSress.

Congress meets OH December Ist.
There isl strong probability that it will
do very little Of Importance tho coming
session beyond passing the necessary
appropriation bills. 1t will be practi-
cally two months session. Congress-
does so little work in December in ordi-
nary times that it is hardly worth while
to call that month part of the session.
This time there will be large exodus
for New Orleans about che 18th, special
trains having been provided and q FREQ
ride guaranteed to the opening cere-
monies Of the Worlds Fair. Those who
remain at their posts may whack away
at tho calendars, which are loaded to tho
muzzle with bills.
Tho calendars have just beon printed.
They consist altogether Of nearly one
hundred pages. There are about thir-
teen hundred bills now before the House
i'll various stages Of incompleteness. If
Congress met tomorrow and introduced
no new business it could not act on half
Of these measures. They are divided rs
follows: In Committee Of the Whole,
ITS; on the House Calendar, 155 Pri-
vate Calendar, 100; Senate Bills on Sec
ond or third reading, $50, and about for
ty others reported from the calendars
and untlisposcd Of, special orders, privi-
legged reports and business on the Speak
cr's table. With this formidable array
to start on, it will be readily seen that
new measures yet to be introduced will
stand very poor show Of fair consid-
Grafton. The bills that ure pending be-
fore the various Committees of tho
House arc half as many thousands as
these are hundreds.
Thore are two measures of tho three
upon the Speakers table which are party
measures, and will provoke debate.
These are the Mexican war pension bill
and the bill to forfeit certain land grants.
These land grant measures will bo
crowded by Mr.. Cobb and other Demo
Gratis. Another attempt will be made to
secure Legislation looking to REQ ction
Of the surplus in the Treasury. I'horc
are three election cases pending also,
one dead Congressman to mourn by
eulogy. The Mexican war and land
grant measures are special orders, and,
with the public building bills, have the
right Of way, not to interfere with ap-
preparation bills.-Phiiddelphia Times.

Mahonc's Legs,

Billy Malone is an irritable man, and
has the thinncst legs in tho world out
side Of an anatomical museum. One
cold, blustery morning in December,
1864, his tent was pitched on a bleak
Virginia hillside. He was indulging in
morning nap when Unclo Dayie, his
negro body servant, tiptocd in, stumbled
over something, knocked over the GEN
erals cot and spilled him on the ground.
Springing to his feet the irate General
grabbed sword and gave chase to the
flying Davio. The darkey Jumped y
fence, and fcoling safe, turned to tho
General, whose shirt was Tapping in the
breeze, and yelled Massa William, ye
amt trustin' you'seIfin dis wind on d.:
legs, is you ?'--Capitas.

UNQUALIFIEDLY FALSE.

This public assault under the covert
plea that it is based upon information
which regard for United States Sena-
tor does not permit him to present will,
to honorable minds, suggest the idea of
irresponsible ISLANDERS. 1t is thus de-
volved upon me to say that the allega-
ton that my ever having written such a
letter as is described is unqualificdly
false, and the assertion that l had any
purpose to wish to destroy the liberty
and equal rights Of any State, either
North or South, is reckless and shame
less falschood, especially because it was
generally known that for many years be-
fore, as well as during the war between
the States, [ was an earnest advocate of
the strict construction State rights thco-

MASS MEETING.

There has been some talk of
mass meeting for the purpose of
making things solid, and having
Madison present a solid front. 1t
is argued that q mass meeting
would result in uniting the friends
Of both candidates for Congress and
in concentrating the votes of the
democracy on one, thus sounding
the death knell to the hopes Of any
venturesOme republican who might
chance to make race for Congress.
It has been suggested that the
Parish Executive Committee call q
mass meeting for the purpose of
effecting this desirable result, and
it is claimed, that a mass meeting
will effect it.
This proposition, while praise
worthy in the result hoped for,
cannot accomplish it. While it is
unquestionable that King had q
majority of the white votes of this
parish whether he has now or not, }
it is also certain that the majority
is not very large one, and it can
hardly be expected that the friends
of Boatncr (and the friends Of King
who jisapprove OF his course at
the convention) will be willing to
yield up their right to vote fo-
whom they please, simply because
n majority decide that they prefer
King. That the majority shall
rule is sound doctrine enough, but
that the majority shall say you shall
vote for this or that democrat, is
getting it down a little too fine.
That Madison Parish which has
been divided against itself ever
since the democrats have had con-
troll of the Parish, should pose as
the model ofunity, for the district,
is too supremely ridiculous to pass
unnoticed, and the papers ofthe en-
tire district, would roll that sweet
morsel under their tongues, and
laugh to scorn the spectacle. No,
it is entirely out of the province of
any Parish, to assume to itself, to
say, who was regularly nominated
a. Monroe, much less Madison,

Nothing would satisfy him bet the

az the resources OF his splendid
intellect, an the persistence of his
