The objects sought to be accomplished must commend themselves to all who feel concerned for our pros perity, which depends so much ou the successful direction of enterprise and capital in every department of labor. - The Congress was oonqKMed of delegates from eleven States, besides the District of Columbia, embodying an array of talent and seal unsurpassed in any prior assemblage in thialoountiy, for the ad vancement of the interests embraced within the soope of its objects. They effected a temporary organisation, and adjourned to meet at Selma, Alabama, ou the first Tuesday in ldeoember next, at which time it is expeoted to perfect and launch it upon its patriotic mission of usefulness, as a permanent institution. Having no merely sectional or partisan aims to accomplish, it challenges the cordial co-oj>eration of all, who, animat ed by a similar emrit, desirp. that labor should be dignified, enterprise stimula ted, and capital intelligently directed Into appropriate and diversified ohannels. The public may liaio au idea of the aco|>e of its objects by glancing quit at the subjects which “The Agricultural Congress” proposes to consider, and on which it has taken stops to elicit infor mation.

The Deesoeratie awW should be brought out In TSSufe and squarely upon its timAhondwa principle*. Suc cess to them will vindicate America and her system of government. Defeat will he honor to those who sustain them and disgrace to those who disregard them.— Just as the people were brought, in 1800, to a full consideration of their trne posi tion and their proper behoof, so let it be in 1872; and the people shall decide wkethu-ibej 4MU.eciato or understand e government they the guilty shall rest the blame. If our forefathers thought it worthy ths sacrifices they made, it should take little argument to convince that it is worthy of being sustained by their de scendants. How admirable and proper is the ad vice given by yon with regard to the choice of representatives in the United States Senate. I think with you, and I can not see how any trne mau who fully, calmly considers tbs matter, can fail to appreciate that it it the only honorable course to pursue. Just after the war ind CongrMkiu direct nutation . lillity to CongMsi, (Swarc the people of the South, I would ebeosu the best men as Representatives, regardless of what a Rump Congresa might say, and, like the English in the matter of Wilkes, send them back every election whether they were ad mitted or not. It was the true policy, end to-day, it would be better for the South to have no representatives than men whom they select at tbc dictation of “fB5 L ddfh.

Honesty is Uie best policy in political af fairs as in any other, and it is the only policy that can secure tbe aid of heaven against tbe machinations of men. If the Democracy will stick to principle— the people tiring of misrule will know then that they are worthy of confidence, and will commit the trial to them. Then let “l>ate nor jot, nor tittle of their high re solve, bat bear upward and steer right onward.” Vuiitas. ra THS I.. CITY! pm OUmertiameniS. BERO’SUH We learn that Gov.
