The burthenof all the ligeshition asked
for by the states lately in rebellion is, :for ,
the erection of public buildings, 'river and
harbor improvements, and for payment of
southern . claims. The ' draft upon the
treasury from these sources is tremendous:

There is no longer any doubt that the
newly elected Legislature in Oregon will
be controlled by the Republicans. •It is true
that they will not have an' overwhelming
majority. At the most they will not have.
more than : or twelve votes_ to spare,'
but for most practical purrKise's any kind
of a majority answers the purpose. The
Oregon Republicans have strength enough
to elect a Republican to succeed Mr. Gro

that Were. the utmost extent of • their

A week of hot weatheihns had the effect
of causing Congress to think of consideling
the question of ‘,
FINAL ADJOURNMENT
The Ways and Means Committee have
agreed to report a resolution to - adjourn
nut later than the ith of July. The Senate
thinks it undignified to agree to the_ day
fixed by the lower House, and, as usual,
will amend any resolution the House may
puss, fixing a different day.. If the House
shall say the 7th, the Senate will' bo liltely
to say the 10th, and probably that will
the time. -
With the exception of the 11Insge" of bills
of a private nature, which cannot poSiiblY
be considered during the present session;
the important public legislation demanded
can all be disposed of, before July Ist, if
both bodies will work industriously. A
larger number of bills, and reports themon
by committees, are shown by the records
to have been introduced and reported !upon
during the present „session than in 'fury
previous session Of Congress. Consequently
the journal and documents will be proport
tionately,, more voluminous.. , The House
journal for the present session will probnbly
exceed two thousand pages, and the re•
ports of committees, each, one being a disl
tinet document, will reach two thousand
or more. While Congress is charged with
being lazy; the above statement will convey
some idaaof how the time is employed.
Tag LEGISLATIVE, EXECUTIVE AND JUDICIAL
APPROPRIATION BILL,.
which Was reported in the House on
last,, provides for the following
additions to thc, clerical force in the several
executive departments : Pension office;
817; Surgeon ,General'i office, 166; Adju
tant General's office, 167; Secretary of
War's office, 12; Second Comptroller's
office, 8; Second Auditor's office, 20; :Third
Auditor's 0ffici.,26 7. -total additional clerks,
1,210. Two-thuds of the increase of
dtri
cal force asked for, it will be seen, is in the

past number of undetermined pending ap
plications for pensions, ,numbering several
hundred thousand. •

We-embraced the opportunity to interview
a .numiser of the Republican country
editors relative to the political situation in
their re:: et ii,tl=ljas,_.azaffected b the
exception, deep regret was expressed that
the disagreement existed, with a hope that
some measure might be. adopted that would
restore harmony 'and bring party success.
Itlwas.a common remark that " Don Cam

.no conception of the feeling his
course has created, and if he persists, it
can only result :in defeating Republican

ascendency in the state." As to the effect

the conflict should n' t extend to • these

THE NEXT CONGRESS
The Senate, it - is' conceded by the Demo . -
crats, will be • Republican by at least four
majority. The terms of. fourteen Demo
crats and one Independent, and of.eleven_
Republicans eVire on
.the 4th pf I March
next.' The' Republicans gain one .in
one in Oregon, and will probably
gain one; in place of David Davis, Independ
ent, in Illinois, - and mu.; in phice of -
NePherion, in New Jersey. They lose one
in Louisiana in place of Kellogg. The re
sult, it is conceded, will glve the republi
cans a majority Of four, and they May have
six. The complexion of the House cannot .
be so easily calculated. It is expected that
the Repulicaus 'may lose three in Peririsyl
, vania, 'four in New York, two. in Indiana,
'arid perhaps &o in Ohio, and the same in
Illinc;is, making a loss of thirteen. 'They
expect to gain one in Maine, threO in Kan
sas, one in Califoru)g, one in Massachusetts,
three in _Virginia, one in. West Virginia,
and enough in. the other states 'smith to

cannot be otherwise than cli3sely balanced.
If theparty, dissensions 'in i*ew York.and

be no doubt about .the -next House being

POLITICAL -POIkTS,

Senator Cameron was rather more. sue
ci3ssful than Senator Mitchell in manipulat
ingthe late Republican convention of Penu 7
sylvania; so . Mitchell kicks, and sayi it is
tune the Cameron retired and let him
"boss things" for awhile. And that's • all
there is of it.—Warerfy Advocate. .
• Says the Press: Ex-Sehator McDonald,
of Indiana, points to the Western. strikes
and says "Ha! Ha!" Inthem.he sees the
fallacy of protection. - Does the ex-Senator
seriously think that under , . a Democratic
syetem of free trade those then wouldower
have been able to lay up enough money to
build a strike ota
. .
Boss Mitchell says there will be no truce
unless Beaver, and the rest of the Harris
bnrg ticket is withdrawn. This shows the
spirit which pervades the bolters. They
are opposed . to "bossism" unless they do
the bossing.. *hen they bois it is an up
rising of the "dear people."---litooni:Oarg
Republicipt..
The Williamsport Gazette . and Bulletin
is - inclined to the idea that inasmuch - "as
General Hancock has been sacrificed on
the Democratic altar 'once, - it is not likely
that he will allow himself to be led to cer
tain defeat again, as there is no Democrat
in Pennsylvania ho could be
,selected over
General Beaver."
"If the object o Senator Mitchell and
his associates is to assist the Democracy,"
the Brookville R Moan thinks "the only
honorable course they can pursue is to
come out boldly and assert their purpoie,
. .
and not act the part of cowards by en
deavoringsto deceive by so flimsy a disguise
as the Independent scheme affords."
Senator Ben Harrison, of Indiana, is
looming up as a Presidential candidate. A
knowing Washington. politician recently
said of him: "He has taken a prominent
part herefor a new man and is rapidly
coming to the front. He lives in n .pivotal
locality; he has a military name a nd heroic
. traditions(he is 'of good family, and the
Morning light of Presidential ambition is

nent: Independent Republican supports

ifs", ho sail "Thorp aro Oarada of

in Penusylvania, , but that does not make .
Democratic supremacy desirable." Mr.
Everhart helped to send Mr. • Mitchellto

Says the North. .imerican: Senator
Cameron, according to special telegrams
piiiilished yesterday, denies hiving made
the foolish remark attributed to him, by
those who fancied their hearing was accur
ote, in the Matter of the alleged threat
about the, tariff. It is well that he should
htive lione so; and his word should not
questioned. - Rash, domineering, autocratic
and iMpolitic as he. is, denial of this
charsii should be acceptet• by „trend and
foe.
Hen. James G. Blaine hits written , a let
ter declining to be a candidate for Con
gressman-at-Large in Maine. ..Ire hopes
that the campaign Will result in theelection
.
of a Legislature which will return Senator
Frye to the C. S. Senate, and says: "For
twenty-three years I was continuously in
the publlo.service, and I left in consequence
of a tragedy which has involved deep
changes in the policy of . the Government.
Since then I have been- at4iniing to long
neglected private affairs, from which I can
not nt this dine turn aside except with in
justice to those who. have oven a stronger
claim upon me dna the great constituency
which in all these years has honored me
with an earnest support and with unwaver
ing confidence."
When John t. Mitchell announces that he
is ready to intnd the State of , Pennsylvania
over to the Democrats because of his hatred
to the Cansomns, he should remember that
his own election to the place he now i wishei
to disgrace, showed
.that the Camerons
could be held in cheek and; they were not
whole : Republican party by any 'means.
True enough they had influence enough
td defeat Grow, aided by the traitor Wolfe, -
who was the Judas of the movement, but
they - were not able to elect any ono of their
choice. Other persons have betrayed the
State into Democratic hands, but what has
it profited them.. Where is Curtin, Mc-
Clure and others who might have, been
honored and respected had they stayed in
