Now and then some wit rises to men tion the "billion, dollar Congress" in t: joking way. hut this is no finny niatter it is ii seiious thing,1 but is only one. mort kuile in the hands "of justice :" that will engage in the work of cutting off the oiliciil heads., of the men in b )th juditical parties w ho a!h)wed tie jippmpi iations to pass. A billion dollar Congress is a catch 'plirrtse which "may. be flippantly lUiJuthed, but how few of us lvali vluit it means. We lire now ap- ; ju-oaching the end of the nineteenth i:entury, et a billion dollars is more titan COO' for every- hour of. nineteen liiHidred year.
