The Fort v-sixth Ooneress. myb the f w - New Yorr jun, will reassemble on Mod day, Deo. 1. There hare been fei changes In the com position of the House since the extra session adjourned. Cali fornia, which was not represented in the House during the extra session, will hare four Congressmen three Republicans and one Democrat. The Westchester, N T.. district, which was left without a rcDresentatire by the death of Alex. m Smith, Bap., on the ere of his election, will hereafter be represented by Waldo Hntchins. Democrat, who was elected last .Tuesday. Senator Chandler's deatb leares a racancy in the representation of Michigan In the Senate which will prob ably be filled by appointment of the Gereraer before Congress meets. Before the reoenUState elections were held a live ly session of Congress was anticipated. Sine the Democrats hare received such iceueral punishment, it is believed that their leaders will counsel a general policy of legislative Inaction, confining the wof"k of the majority to making needful appro priations, and abstaining from any at tempt to tinker the finances. An attempt will probably be made to secure a revision of the tariff. The Committee on Privileges and Eiec tioos of the Senate has under contidera tlon the contested case of Spcfford ..age. Kellogg, and charges of bribery against 8eoator Incalla. The House Committee on Elections has several contest j1 election eases before it. Anon the number are : Bitbee sgt. Hull of the Second District o Furida; Bradley agt. Slemmons of the 8 KJond District of Arkansas; oynton t. Loring of the Sixth District of Mass aa'-iuastts; Donnelly agt. Washburn of the Taird District of Minnesota; Holmen agt Sippot the Eight District of Iowa, Wil- a n agt. Carpenter of the Ninth District of Iowa; McCaba agt. Orth, Ninth Dis trict of Indiana; Herbert agt. Acklin, Third District of Louisiana; O'Hara agt Kitchin , Second District of North Caro lina; Crane agt. Henkle, Fifth District o Maryland. ' Congress has thus far directed but few pablic investigations. The Committee of Ways and Means has begun an inquiry late the sugar traffic, with a view of re adjusting the tariff on sugar. The Com mittee oa Banking and Currency has Been tnsirnocea to investigate toe man agement of the receivers of the Ocean National Bank of New York and the German National Bank of Chicago. The select committee, of which Hendrick B. Wright Is Chairman, will report at the axt session upon the causes which led to the recent depression of the labor market Seleot committees of the House have urn der consideration the causes of introduc tion aad best means to prevent the spread ef epidemic diseases in the United States; the state of the law respecting ascertain m tat and declaration of result of the Presidential elections; and the ventilation m mm - m. . mm ! ol the nail oi tn uousej The Uommit tee on Expenditures In the State Depart ment will continue the investigation of the case of Qeo. F. Seward, Minister to China, who is accused of all sorts of fraudulent dealing In his office. The Committee on Foreign Affairs may begin another investigation of the La Abra and Weil Mexican claim, io which Wm M. Evarts recently made such remarkable decisions. The Committee on Rules ot the Houses will report a new code of rules for the parliamentary guidance ot tsat body. 1 he Committee on Agricul ture will investigate the causes of pleuro pneumonia among cattle. Senator Davis expects to report the results of his iuvts- tigation into the reports, books, and ac counts of the Treasury Department at the next seuiou of Congress. The Com mit tee appointed to investigate the affairs of the Freedmen's Bank has been at work all Summer, and will be ready to report soon after Congress meets. The select com mittee of the Senate, of which Mr. Wallace is Chairman, has concluded its investiga tion of alleged frauds in the Congressional election of 1878. A report on the subject may be expected soon after Congress meets. The removal of the northern Cheyenne Indians, with the outrages attendant thereupon, has been investi gated by a select committee of the Senate this Summer, and a report will be made on the subject early next month. . There Wire 3,184 b Us and 120 joint resolutions la trod need at the last session of Congress. Of this n amber 2,407 bills were intro duced in the House, and 727 in the Sen ate. Of the House bills 952 were in relation to public business and the others were of a private nature. In the Senate, 314 public and 413 prirji vate bills were introduced. Nine bills re-j lating to the finances were introduced in the Senate. The most. -important; of these were bills .providing .j For' free coin age; authorizing the payment of custom duties in legal -tender notes; authorizing John Sherman to issue 810,000,000 i of J four per cents for the payment of arrear ages of pensions; to T2o'n trade j dollars dollars; for Inter- silver coins and into standard silver change of subsidiary United States notes.and to authorize taxa tion of United States legalntender note. Seventy-four bills relating to the coinage and currency were introduced in theHonse Some of them contain propositions of the most alarming character . Mr De La Matyr, the Indiana Greenbacker. proposes to fund municipal ' Indebtedness with United Stntes money. ! He alsoj proposed toUfc' 1,000.000.000 in greenbacks to carry ot. internal improvements, .thereby relieve distress among; the working peo ple. Bills have been introduced for the . t t i following purposes: Requiring national i u ir-w,rs nn hanr) rn er cen t. of amount of notes issued tbem by I the Treasury in coin; ta abolish national banks; to repeal national tax on deposits in noinna KardrB t.r (V)in silver dollars and., fractions thereof upon the fcietnc system; to convert gold now in the Treas ury, or which may hereafter be receiyed by it, into silver, and j to authorize the issue of certificates therefor; to prohibit the fuuding of bonds payable in Treasury notes into coin bonds; to substitute legal tenders for national bank notes; authoriz ing the issue of 8600,000,000 of U yv cotton is expee'ed to yield $20,000,000 States notes, with which coin shall I be "ffa thau Ust year. TfW tobacco crop is THE MAN ON HORSEBACK And so, the man- on horseback is to ride rough-shod over the Jiberties of the people of this country . The third term is no myth; it is to become a sthkiDg reality if malice and malignity can make it iuch. And a third term may mean a fourth, or a fifth, or a life-time of poer and authority andunbridledjlicentiousnesg for King Grant. - This is surely foreshadowed, if may believe the many correspondents at Washington City. It is plainly charged, and that with a unanimity which gives' much force toj the assertion, tha Grant is certainly in understanding with leading Stalwarts and that at the j proper time he will place himself in the hands of the Convention. We do net believe, how ever, that be can be elected, provided the Democracy of ihe count ro are united and true to themselves. It is for the Demo cratic leaders to make up the issue. jLt them see that good and true men are placed on tbo ticket, such men as Bayard and Hendricks aud Hancock and Thur man, and with a firm front they will win in the next figh as they did in the last. We want no traitors in the camp, how ever Sueh men as Toombs and Tilden and Stephens and Kelly must be put out bayond the picket-line to work' eut their own1 machinations. They have wrought evil enough in our ranks. Let them ! powerless amoig us hereafter. "' m -i The Chicago Times estimates the increase Iq the (cotton crop south at 500,000 more bales than any preceding year. The increase purchased to redeem coin bonds; to pro vide for uuli mited anjd free coinage of sil ver; directing tbo Secretary; of the! Treas ury' make all bonds hereafter sold pay able, principal and interest! in gold, sil ver, or legal-tender -.note's; directing the Secretary otthe Treasury to pajr out sil ver without discrimihation ; directing the issue of $000,000,000 in greenbacks, to be paid out as Congresi shall hereafter direct; to issue $50,000,000 'm fractional currency; to make the trade dollar a legal tender; to issue silver coin certificates; to prevent the reduction of natiou'al cur rency by fraudulently withdrawing legal tender notes from circulation directing the coinage of 4 000 000 silver doliara per month, instead of 2,000,000; requiring national bank reserves to be kept in gold and silver coin; prohibiting hoarding of money in the Treasury, and to prohibit the increase of the national debt; to make subsidiary coins a legal tender in sums not exceeding 820; to ' authorize a new metric gold coin for international use known as the'stella and to authorize (the coinage of a goloid metric dollar. f Among the Sena'.e bi '.s a:e twe'.e pro posing to bu.ld public buildings in various parts ot the country.1 There are thirty- one bills concerning the construction of railroads, the projectors! of which are beg' ging for Government aid to construct their roads. Thirteen bills rela'iug to ocean steamship- service have been presented, among them being two or threis p'roposi- t tions to subsidize Roach's steamship line to Brazil ; eleven bills concerning the prac tice of Uuited States Courts ; filteen bills in relation to the public larids ; eight (bills concerning the Indians ; ouo bill proposing to transfer the Indian bureau from the In terior to the War Department ; three bill8 12,000,000 lbs over last year, and the sugar 200,000 bbda greater. This surplus is val ued at $40,000 over the product of last year. On the other hand, the West is thought to have 20,000,000 bushels of wheat and from 80,000,000 to 100,000,000 bushels of corn more thau ever before, and the hay product is also larger, this year than for mauy years past. Cattle wall probably go over previous years' production, the price of grain is large, aud meat productions realize fair value. WASHI3UT0N LETTER. to revive the Court of Commissions of Alabama Claims, and a proposition to re strict Chinese immigration, are among the measures referred to the! Committee on Ju diciary and Foreign Relations Mr. Bujn side has introduced a ponderous bill for the reorganization of th'e army.

The Boston Courier says his a sneezy thing to take snuff, i Wa hikgton, D.p. Nov. 14, 1879. . NumberlesB Democratic journals are certify mg that certain prominent can didates favored by them, and no can didates favored by others, can be elected President in 1880. This! is unfairly ! attempting to forestall the action of the Demooostio convention of next , year. By and by if such regular warfare is kept np inside tha party, Demooratio voters, will be asking if any prominent man is a ne cessity in the next campaign. We elected Tilden three years ago. Ha was a man then not known in any politics bat those of Hew York. The Republicans eleoted Grant for two terms, not because he was politician, bat because he was not. So of Lincoln, who was unknown outside of his own State when nominated. Mr Baohanan had long been identified with tha poli tics of tho country at large, bat for th four years previous to his nomi nation had been abroad. Pierce when nominated was not known to the country's politics, nor was Taylor or Polk. The rule of late years has been to elect the man who is not a politi cian. Now, withoutjobjecting to any of the prominent gentlemen named for the Demooratio nomination, it seems, in the light of these f cts, proper to urge that aspiring gentlemen, and their friends should desist from catting each others' throats inside the party. If this evil disposition shall htve its way the people whose fight this is may drop all the noted men who are aspirants and seleot a new man. Let us have peace in the party. There will be a renewal at the meet ing of Congress next month, of the attempt to plaoe the Indians under control of the War Department, the principal argument beitg that tha present system of dividing the retpoL sibility for their care between two departments prevents an official ad ministration of their affurs. Besides,' there is a growing belief that Secrr retary Scburz, whatever bo may know of Gerroun, aud piano music, has little if any business bility, aud the Indian Bureau, as of the Bare.u of the Inttrior Department, are either col ducted by either irresponsible subor dinate'9, or are being muddled up the erratic and impracticable ideas of Mr. Schuiz 1 Another argument for transfer ia found in the fact that ev n If Mr. Schmz were a competent business man, the Interior Department has out grown its intended dimensions and got beyond the capaoity of any single bead. Of its Bareaus, comparatively insignificant when te Department was organized, those of the Land, Patent, and Pensions have grown to enormoi g dimensions. Ex Governor Uendriokt. gave hia whole attention to one of the e Bureaus, now it lB'really run by a elerk, with suo i hapbazrdaud iu coherent superviaion as an unpracti cal man like Scbutz can give it. The Central Pacific Railroad, under the Thurman law, has first made a quarter million payment into the TJ. b. Treasury. But for; the able and persistent fight j made by the Ohio Senator neither this nor any other pay ment would have been made, and when the money due tha government, be came payable under the conatnwtion of the old law. Government would have had a worn-:ut road as security for many millions it won d then have paid out. Senator Thurman deserve the thanks of every farmer. laborer, busi ness man or other tax payer in r the country for his successful right against the monoply. Gcbdgk His c llano ous. THE SUN FOE 1880. Tai Sea will deal with theeveats c f the year 1880 in its ova fashion, now pretty well understood by everybody. From Jaacary 1 until December 31 it will be conducted as a newspaper, written in the English language, and prinUd for thepeople. j ' As a newspaper. Tan 8c believes in get ting all the news of the world promptly, and presenting It in the moat Intelligible shape the shape that wili enable its readers to keep well abreast of the age with the leat unpro ductive expenditure of time. Ihe greatest interest to the greatest number that is, the law controlling its daily make-up. It now has a circulation rerv much larger than that of any other American newspaper, and er joys an income which it is at all times tre parad to spend liberally for the aeaeitoits reader. People of all conditions of life and all ways of thinking buy and read Tbk 8ur; and they all derive satisfaction of a me tort from its -cilttmnjfor thej. keep on bujieg and readrag it, m . In it comments on men and aBairs, ihk Pvk be teres that the only guide of policr snould be common seme, inspired by genu Ine American principles and b eked by hon est r of par noap. JFor this .reason it ia, atd will continue to be, absolutelv independent of party, claw, clique, organisation, or in tereat.). It is for all, but -of none. It will continue to praise what is good and repro bate what is evil, taking ea e that its lan guage ia t the point and plain, beyond the pogtibtlitj of being misunderstood It U un infuenced by motives fatdo not appear on the. surface; it has no op nions . to sell,' aave those which may be had by ay purchaser with two-cents.' It hates injustice and ras oality even more than it hates unoeeeeaary words. It abhors frauds, pities foola, and de plores nincompoop! of every speciea. It will continue throughout the year 1880 to cbMctbe tne first cltea, instruct the second, and dis countenance the third. All honf it men with honest conv ctions, whether sound or mis taken, are its friends. And Tua Hew mikes no bones of tellinjc the truth to its fri nda and about its friends when- ver occasi- n arise- for plain speaking. I The e are the principles upon which Thi Sun will be conducted during the year to eome. - " ! . "I he year 1880 will be one in which no pat riotic American can afford to c'oae hia' ey es to public aftairs. It ia impoaaib'e to Exag gerate the importance of the poHt-cal events which it has in store,' or the naceaaity of reso lute vigilance on the part of every citizen who desires to preserve the Government that the founders gave us. The debates and acs of Congress, the utterancis of the press, the eiciting contests of the Republican and Dem ocratic parties, now nearly equal in strength throughout the country, the varying drift ot public aentimeBt, will all bear dirt ctly and effectively upon the twenty -fourth Presiden tial election, to be held in November. Tour years, ago next November the will of the nation as expressed at the polls, was thwart ed by an abominable conspiracy, the promo ters and beneficiariea of which still hold th offices they stole. Will tt e crime of 1876 be repeated in 1830 ? .The past decade of years opened with-a corrupt, extravagant, and in solent Administration intrenched at Wash ington. Tun SrV did something toward dis lodging the gang and breaking ita power. The same men are now intriguing to restore their leader and themselves to p aces from which they were driven by the indignation of the people, ill they succeed ? ? The cominsr year will bring the answers to the?e momentous queationa. Tbk &vh will be on hand to chronicle the facts as they are devel oped, and to exhibit them elearly and fear lessly ia their relations to expediency atd right. j Thus with a habit of philosophical eood humor in looking at the minor affairs of life, and in great things a steadfast purpose to maintain the rights of the people ard the princip'es of the t.'cnatitutiun ag&inst all aggressors, Ths tvn is prepared to write a truthful, instructive, and at the same Mine entertaining history of 18P0.
