SPIRIT OF THE MOKXIXV Pit ESS. I The Union, noticing the of the session, that though the time occupied by the National Legislature bM been souiewbat less than usual.

it is beliered that the two branches hare been moro employed than at any corresponding since the organir.atiou of the tJovernment. A review of the prominent events of the session, concludes with a rejoicing that the adjournment is marked by a condition of I -public opinion throughout the country which promises far less sectional strife than we have been accustomed to witness during the last four year." The Union also notices rumors alike false and foolish, proclaiming disagreement in the Cabinet, and an alienation between the Secre- I tariea of War and the Treasury. It says the good feeling exists between all the members of the Cabinet; and if any two of them are on terms more cordial than the rest, they happen to be the very gentlemen whom this latest I and freshest rumor announces to be at dagger's I draw The Union is sevore upon Mr. F. P.

Blair. I and insists that ho was hoaxing the House in using the lettor of the Secretary of State to Lord Napier, to justify the recent British outrages in the Gulf. The Union says the British Government accept Mr I Blair's justification and appeal to him for author- I Ity. what a compliment it will be to patriot- I ism; if they reject it, what a commentary it will be upon his sagacity as a politician The Union likewise congratulates its readers upon the decisive vote by which the Senate confirmed the election to that body of lions. I Jesse D.

Bright and Graham X. Fitch, saying I The Republican press has been accustomed, I for some time, to sneer at these gentlemen as I usurpers of to which they were not entitled, I and this has been especially the case whenever their votes have had a controlling influence in I deciding impoitant questions. At such times, I the Senate has bt-en urged to a prompt determin- I ation of the contested seats, as if the determina- tioa was sure to result In the defeat of the sitting 1 ninnhers. These members, however, have await- the result with dignity, calmness, and pa- I ticnce. Conscious of the justice of their position, I were contented to await the triumph which I they knew would not fall to come.

This triumph I has'uow been achieved, and by a most gratifying I vote the have decided that they are the I legally elected Senators from Indiana Mr. Bright remains, therefore, in the distinguished which he has already become eminent. I and Mr. Fitch, who is associated with him, will I falsify the promise of his career in the House if I be does" not occupy a most important position in I The ia without editorial to-day. I WASHINGTON NEWS AND (JOSS I P.

The Statk op thk City point to tho inaugural address and subsequont message of the new Mayor of Washington, delivered yesterday, for conclusive confirmation of tho pro- I priety of the Star's appeals for months past, I for a different state of things here so tar as pro- I taction to property and life is concerned, liis I appeals to the Councils mentioned above are worthy of the great interests the safety of which I he is supposed to bold in tho hollow of his hand; I though whether he is to be justly for the tuture peace and good government of the Federal Metropolis, will depend much, indeed, I on the fact whether the Councils do or do not listen to his suggestions, and accord to him the means he declares to be necessary, in his judg- I meat, to consummate the ends all good citizens I of all parties sincerely desire to see accomplished. Beyond all question, for six months past, lawlessness has tuled herewith a higher and more vindictive, merciless, dangerous and destructive hand than ever before. Aa late as Sunday last, a gang attacked the residence of Mr. Magruder, on the outskirts of the city, wounded him on his own premises I with a pistol shot, insulted his wife and family. I and marched off without let or hindrance I lhat night another gang, teu bullies in number.

I broke by violence into the closed of I one of the leading hotels of Washington, I thcm-elves to what they fancied, and after put- I ting the house in an uproar, also made their I without arrest. Similar parties have played tho same game daily around the city for months; yet, as far as we can learn, hardly a tingle arrest of those participating iu such outrages has been made. I The truth seems to us to be, that the of the police disposed to do their duty are afraid I to their lives in its performance, while another portion are friends and associates of at least the leaders of these villainous gangs. I bile we can hear of no arrests, common rumor I names 1 iceman alter poliveman as being no- Baltimore or Washington bullies and I "shoulder hitters." Nay, it has bocotus i-ot I uncommon to see Washington police I riding in their uniform uround the city.screech- I ing mad uLder the iniluence of liquor. 1'nder I such circumstances, it ia by no means wonderful that few or do arrests are made for the orime3 I of arson, house breaking, robbery and wanton destruction of hotel and restaurant furniture, I a in our midst, and lhat the life of no man I it matters not what his position in society or the inofiensivenees his habits and I lions may sale.

No sane man can doubt the truth of Mayor Jberrei explanations of the necessity for the use of extraordinary exertions to retrieve the peace and character of the federal Metropolis; Jior can it be doubted that if accomplished it I must be done under his supervision and through I his exertions in the main, aided by a thoroughly I reformed police While we are no advocate an indiscriminate removal of all the present police, we are certainly for the displacement of I the vicious or inefficient among theui. Who I they may be individually, it is the Mayor's to ler.rn without delay; as it is also his I duty to replace them with men chosen with an eye single to the end of securing the services I ot the best possible for the efficient dis- I charge of the duties of the position The new Major of Washington has had ex- I rience in least sufficient, in the condition of our city, to impress this fact on his I mind. While his appointments on the police will be thoroughly sranued, they should be. by all his fellow-citizens of all the luture of the lives and property of all will in their keepirg in a greater or less degree? we feel assured that all men of character and influence here will, as they should, iktir duty in tho emergency, by lending their countcnance, without regard their political differences I'nless they do so, the public cannot reasonably expect him to succeed in the praiseworthy work he has an riounoed as being the lirst task he takes in Jisod I pon the newly-elected is also devolved a full share of responsibility for the success of his contemplated efforts Their duly is plainly to discard all other considerations than that of the restoration of law and order in Washington, in the shortest possible time, at whatever pecuniary cuet that may be necessary. A failure of cordial on their with the Mayor will surely be the prolongation of the existing state of things and the public already look (o them as fairly dividing with the Major the responsibility for the prompt eradication of the state of here, described first above.

Disastrous weather for the past week beon big with threatening disaster? to the wheat crop for a hundred miles around Washington city, in all directions. to that time, the prospect for wheat in that particular district of country was perhaps finor than was ever before known. More land had been planted to wheat in it, and tho promise of a yield was more abundant than ever before in proportion to the land so planted; while the ravages of insect enemies to the crop had boon far less than for a few years past. The immense quantity of cold rain falling on the wheat while in blossom, during the last week has greatly retarded the filling oat of the grain, and proportionately increased the yield of straw. Nevertheless, the black rust has made its appearance nowhere, so far, in the section of country to which we refer.

Yet all farmers therein are dreading, momentarily, from the peculiar condition of their wheat as explained above, that in twenty-four hours they may find the crop entirely destroyed by that enemy of the grain at this particular period of the year. A sudden change of the weather to bright, sultry sunshine, without a drying wind, would, in twelve hoursof it, doubtless produce sufficient black rust to damago the farmers, thus, within a hundred miles of Washington in all directions, to the extent cf mil- lions of dollars. If the weather, on the contrary, changca go tb.it a eold wind will blow without rain, and especially without sunshine, for a day before the suns rays are again fierce upon the wheat, no damage whatever will havo been done to that grain by the torrents of rain of the season so tar, which, in its effect upon other crops, has as yet done no injury, except where it has overflowed low grounds. The erops on the bottoms skirting the upper Rapidan and Rappahanock rivers in Virginia, we regret to say, ware yesterday in greater danger of general submersion, than at any former period since lilf. Mr.

Cunningham, of Culpeper county, well known as one of the most enlightenod and successful agriculturists in Virginia, hae fifty acres of Rappahanock bottom-land wheat, which a week a ago promised to yield thirty-five bushels to the acre, completely under wator; a disaster only to be appreciated by those whose means are embaikod in tho noble pursuit of agriculture. weather to-day, at least up to 10 a. is a most propitious change. If such weather as we now have here extends over tho rogion referred to above and continues until night and then clears up, tho late exccss of moisture will produce 110 rust. Thk who comprehend what goes on in ashington behind tho curtain (that is, the experienced observers) havo duly noted the extent and activity of 44 the Lobby" here during the past fortnight.

Tho concerning the lobby in the newspapers for the past years, and before investigating committees during the session, caused it to tight shy covering its tracks as far as possible, and to burrow while at its work. During the last fortnight its schemcs have been developed embracing proposed drafts on the treasury to an extent more enormous than over before, in the furtherance of which not only nearly all tae old stagers, but an army of able, pertinacious and unscrupulous recruits wore enlisted. Conspicuous among them were many of tho vociferous patriots, who before the commencement of the session were notol for tho vehe mence of their outcries against the alleged abuses oonnected with the public printing. wore not more vociferous then, thau carnostand industrious in their calling, explained above, in the last fortnight. Ihey are indeed soldiers of fortune, aroused to very desperation by the faintost scent of gold to be ciutched.

either by maligning others or logrolling among themselves. for the public interest, most of schemes for the session havo been defeated; so a large majority of these enterprising people must be shockingly disgruntlod. Much is due to the construction of the new Hall for the defeat of their schemes. That enables all comprehend instantly all that is boing said and done in the course of any stage of the proceedings of the House. Much is ulso duo to the change of the rule of admission, which excludes nearly all from the Hall but actual members and ofliccrs of both Houses.

That change scattered the ex-member-lobby as a of on being fired into. The prospect of making a big haul in the hurry and blunder of closing up. however, brought it back Congress, in the last fortnight, to be defeated in its schemes for the most part, as we explain above. Tho made by the different investigating committees, though bringing no little disgrace on Congress itself, as well as on the fair name of the country, in some cases unjustly, has served a capital turn in preventing mourners from being victimized by friends in the lobby? tho good fellow argument having been almost all powerful with them until the results of these investigations oxjrf.sed to the outside world the fact that for years past it bad exorted perhaps the most deleterious influence upon the public interest. Trkarmiv the sals for Treasury Notes, invited hr notice of tho Department un ler date of May 10th were opened by the Secretary, in pursuance of ihc advertisement.

A Strange Proci House, on Saturday, agreed to some half dozen of the Senate's amendments to the Pout Office appropriation bill. Those to which they refused to agree yesterday, beoame the subject of the deliberations of a conference committee, tho result of whose labors was. striking off the bill all of to which tho House had agreed well as those to which that chamber had refused to agree Such a proceeding on the part of a conference committee was before a thing unheard of. All the amendments to this bill to which the House had agreed, were doubtless of much importance to tbe public interest, as they had been adopted as the result of close scrutiny and deliberate action on the part of both Houses.

The action of both Houses in agreeing to the singular report of the conference committee to roscind amendments previously acceded to by both, was clearly the result of want of lime in which to close up the business of the session in a business-like way, and affords a striking illustration of the wisdom of the warning and advice against a too hasty termination of the session, erubracod in the President's message sent in on Saturday last. Such legislation was worthy only of school boys, impatient for the arrival of the beginning of ''the holidays." The Exn of the session duly terminated at 6 p. m. yesterday, according to the agreement of both houses entered into in the course of the morning. The usual hurry, excitement and bustle marked its cloging hours, which were characterized by no occurrence of particular interest or importance.

The President, of course, was present in the chamber of tho Capitol building occupied by him on such occasions, and by the energy and business tact be manifested, contributed greatly to facilitate and expedite the intelligent settlement of tho various questions incidentally productive of misunderstanding and delays. Cos the aspersions cast upon him by Mr. and his friends, the Senate yesterday confirmed tho nomination of Augustus Schell, as collector of customs at New York. This is a just verdict against those who have not confined their opposition to honorablo but have resorted to unwarrantable and unmanly schemes to defeat the appointment of tKis gentleman. Mr.

George Sanders was also confirmed as Navy Agent for New York; and Dr. R. 15. Bradford, of that State, was confirmed us American Consul at Rome. John P.

Stock was confirmed as Minister to Rome. Charles Mix has been appointed Commissioner of Indian vice Mr. Denver, resigned and wo learn that tLe Senate yesterday confirmed the appointment. Mr. M.

has been acting in this capacity since Mr. was chosen Governor of Kansas and the ability lie has shown in discharging the onerous and frequently delicate duties devolving ujion him, shows this to be a most judicious appointment. Spkcial ovening, President issued a proclamation calling the Senate together in special session, for the purpoao of transacting executive business. The session (an Executive one) will hardly Inst longer than two or three days Thb Wkath following report of the weather for this morning is made from the Morse Telegraph line to the Smithsonian Institution.
