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 . __the best interests df the nation, and judg: . rary oe ings of that hody.

" a 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 . Géiieral Sheridan has been instr ucted-te} 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.

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.
