Advertisements, orders for tee verse by mat end otherwixe, news, or any information or business fan be rent day oF night, free of chance. ‘The leaders and managersof both the republican {and democratic parties appear to be looking ‘ground just now for Issues upon which to fight the coming congressional campaign. The vexatious questions growing out of the rebellion are, hap- pily, well nich settled, and the country, as a ‘Whole, 13 In the enjoyment of peace and pros perity. Politics has become a minor consideration With the people, and the party manogers are Shrewd enough to comprehend that tt will be no easy task to arouse the masses this year. Quiet Dut serious conferences have been held by the Yeaders of both parte; in Congress, of lite, at ‘Which the perplexing subject of how to shape and @irect the congressional canvass was discusa-d; but Relther party has yet deciiled upon a plan of Battle. There was probably never, in the history @f the country, a greater lack of political issues than exists at present. The tariff 1s regarded as Father dangerous, by both parties, because of the ‘Wide difference of opinion concerning ft inthe Fanksof each. The looseness of party ties makes the political bosses uneasy, for they cannot fore- See what divisions and dissenstons may arise from Joeal issues. In fact, {t 1s not improbable that the political comp! of the next House may be de- termined by questions of state or local Interest en- Grely. In the absence of national issues to hold Parties to their lines, it 1s natural for minor or Wocal questions to be pushed to the front. In North Carolina, for example, the Iquor question Promises to cause divisions in the Conzresstonal ight, while in Georgia there will, from present In- ications, be a number of Independent democratic candidates. Upon the whole it looks asif this might be a year of uncertsinty in polities. ~~ or It is understood that Mr. Neal, chairman or the District committee, will call up the bill for the Improvement of the Potomac flvts in the House on Monday. Every consideration connected with the interests of the pubile demands thet this measure ghould recetve early attention and favorable action at the honds of Congress. The plain as Proposed embodies the best thought of the ablest and most reliable enzincering talent In the service of the government. The work 1s to be done by government or under government supervision, and the results will be for the benefit of the whole People. T fs no job In it, either for specu lators, contractors, or for claimants to the land to De reclaimed or made by the improvement. Members of Congress are moreover as deeply in- terested in the proposed work as the people of Washington can be. The leading object In view fs tq improve the sanitiry condition of the Bational capital, the accomplisiment of which @esideratum will bring with 1t, Incidentally, better navigation of the river, and additional at- tractions in anesthetic point of view. When to these advantages !s added the fact that the land Feclatmed or made by the prop improvenent ‘Will be Worth more in the m«rket than the cost of Making It, tt fs not easy to sce how any one can honestly oppose the bill. But, whatever Congress Proposes to do should be dene at once. It would be littie less than criminal to let another season go by without beginn!ng the much needed work. Notbing 1s now ty be gained and much may be lost by delay. —____—__<¢e—____ It tssatd that the House committee on commerce are getting ready to report a river and harbor bill the proportions of whieh greatly overshadow past Measures of this character. It will require, ac- cording to the report of those who profess to have made inquiries about this forthcoming bill, about $15,000,000 to meet the demands of members for ‘thetr share of river and harbor appropriations this Year.
