. ‘Tae Meetina oy Concress.--The Thir‘" ty-Ninth Congress r>assembles in WashIt is hardly probeDblethatany attempt will be made by the
President to interfere with the proceedtion will be resumed and conducted with
Ys much firmness and quietness’ as at the
dast session. It is true that this body has
been denouriced bf the President as an
“unconstitutional assemblage,” and that
he ‘hasexerted his utmost power and corruptly used the patronage of the Government to degrade Congress in the eyes of
“the people. Had hesucceeded in carrying
the; recent elections, some outrage upon
Congress might have been looked for.—
. When Congress adjourned in July, the
_ ‘wo rival plans for reconstracting the
country had never been sabmitted the
people and the President affirmed that the
people were with him. Since then the
‘yerdict has been given and the judgment
. recorded. Congress has the assurance
that the people will sustain the representatives of the country in the reconstraction of the Government upon the basis of
_#qual rights and permanent peace, in defiance of any threats or acts of the perfidious traitor to’ principle and trath,who
now occupies thé’ Presidential chair.—
These facts. will inspire the members of
‘Congress with confidence, The President,
if he is wise, will “accept the situation,”
and allow Congress to work without interruption, at. least he will not conduct
himself in the disgraceful manner which
marked his opposition last session. Many
et Mike bers elect of the Fortieth Contwenty tons of machinery have been
gress, and some of the present one, have,
declared that the President deserves im5 bedithiliant ‘and ih taney be: end axtiles reasonably hope that ere the lapse of many
will be presented in the House during the
coming session: The matter has been setiously discussed by leading members.
» The financial condition of the country
Will aleo demand the attention of the presont Congress. The debt is being 60 rapidly cancelled that an effort will no doubt
be made’ to decrease the heavy rates of
taxation. The Secretary of ‘the Treasury
will no doubt urge the early resumption
‘of hard currency as a circulating medium
‘and there will in all probabifity be a lively
‘eontest‘npon the question: ‘The Secretary
has been gradually’ withdrawing grecn‘backs from circulation and has at many
times indicated ‘his preference for gold
‘nd silver. There are also many of the
ablest advocates of paper money in Congress, men who managed in a great meas‘ure the finances of the war, and the questions of finance will be fully and ably disThe condition of affairs in the doiain
of Brigham Young will also demand the
attention of Congress, ‘The lived and
property of citizens are taken with impu_ ‘nity by Mormons, and it is impossible to
bring the perpetrators to justice. A social. system. which isa disgrace to the
country, has been allowed to exist there,
which under any other form than the
guise of religion would have been swept
from the land long since. There will be
no protection, of life or property until
the system existing among the Mormons
is destroyed, aud we hope shat Congres»
‘will attend to this important question,
” The Constitutional Amendments’ have
‘been rejected by many of the rebel States,
and it will be necessary ‘to devise some
"plan for the government of these territories
until they are ready to assume their char-Rotet ag States. They are tejecting every
offer of habits, tat the hope that
Johnsoit may aid them in gaining, to some
extént, at least a victory over loyalty, and
jection by the. governmental power until
_The coming session of Congress will be
bn of the most importaitt ever convened
in ‘this country. The communications
ment, and its deliber tions will be closely
watched by‘ the people of the entire counle try. 7" We hope the momentous questions .

Tue Sacramento Union of yesterday
tally Seward exhibited a draft ofp
dispatch he had sent to Minister Bigelow
commenting upon Napoleon's breach of the
agreement to withdraw the French army,
from Mexico by the close of the year.
It is said the other members of the Cab
net insisted that the dispatch should be
more strongly. worded. The improvement
was made and the reported. effect is the
decision of the Emperor to withdraw the
army by the appointed time but as ‘a whole
and not by divisions. In the meantime

disavow. the crossing to Matamoras of
‘American troops, if any. suehcrossing: took
‘place, and to Court-martial the officer who
led the movement. . The effect of the reported arrangement is to give Napoleon
additional time during which he can maintain the entire army in Mexico, and hope
for something to turn op. He was previously bound to withdraw one-third of the
force in November. Where is the gain

the great pugilists; hive become friends,
and Morrissey offers to” bet $20,000 that
Heenan can whip any man in the world.
It is probable that Heenan will give him
achance to do so. Morrissey has sure
information that Heenan was drugged in
his last fight in England by his seconds,
who were bribed against him.
