Congress, which lias been in a state of
suspended animation during the last three
weeks, rubbed its eyes, yawned and woke
up to-day. Still the seats in the 8enate
were rather empty, and so were the pro
ceediugs. In the House there was greater
bustle, but no great deal of business
transacted. The Presidential election absorbs
all other considerations. The nominations
were received rather coldly here,
but last night there was a very large and
a very noisy torchlight procession, which

ident was also honored with a congratulatory
visit by the same judicious individuals,
and was very happy of course to see
them and join in their congratulations over
his own defeat. It is supposed that Webster
will withdraw from the Cabinet.?
Speculation is at fault as regards Mr. Graham's
movements. lie is a gentleman of
whom nothing disadvantageous can be
truly said, as far as general reputation goes,
though certainly not a first rate man.
The result of the two last nominations
for the Presidency, has placed in strong
relief tho practical peculiarities of our political
system. The theory of the Americonstitution
assuredly is, that talent and
I civil services should prevail in tho highest
Executive office, for the dignity of commander-in-Chief
is onl) nominal. 1 was never
in tho contemplation of tho framers of
that instrument, that the test for this eminent
station should coino to be military
and not civil ability and service. Wo had,
it is true, been conducted through the revolution
by a millitary commander, who
was clnctivl tn t)if> Il.? )...

cy, in n groat degree, of those who assisted
in forming the constitution and putting
the government into operation, yet the
elevation of Washington was as much lor
tried judgement in civil affairs as his military
services. His case stood alone.?
Those that occupied that high seat, his
immediate successors, were exclusively civilians.
The elder and younger Adams,
Madison and Monroe, never acted in a military
capacity, with the exception ol the
latter, and ho never held a higher than a
Colonelcy in the revolution.
It was the second war and the battle
of New Orleans that broke this lino of civil
precedents. It was the eminent military
services of Gcueral Jackson united to his
popularity, that gave undue prominence
to the military over the civil nualities, in
4 the popular choice. It was the Mexican war
that strengthened this popular preference
of the uutcsted soldier to the tried statesman.
Generals Harrison, Taylor and
Scott, have been successively chosen by
whigConventions,whilst civilians have been
nominated by three successive democratic
Conventions, in the persons of Mr. Van Huron,Mr.
Polk, and Mr. Pierce,for tho latter is
* not eminently a soldier. In two of the
elections which followed, military men of
eminence were chosen. Generals Harrison
tand Taylor. Mr. Polk triumphed over
Gen. Cass, but Gen. Cass' distinction as
a soldier is only titular. If General Scott
should be elected, it would bo entirely at
I tributable to his merits and services as a
f commander.
The solution of this phenomenon is
found of course in the popular inclination,
aa these military personages, untried in
civil affairs, would not have been selected
as candidates unless they had been popularly
available. But what complicates
the question, when wo proceed a step further,
is thai tho foreign element in our
population has as much to do, if not more,
m producing the result than the domestic.
Among tho masses of Germans in Pennsylvaina,
and, wo believe, in some other States,
it is understood that no candidato for the
Presidency will receive Bolarg a number of
suffrages as he who is invested with a
military presting. Now, if this feeling is
shared by other portions of our foreign
population, how is it that this inclination
" for military Presidents is associated in the
, explanation of this fact, with the lust of
conquest and the popularity of military
| leaders, attiibuted to the American charf
actor 1
flow doev the foreign ele uent combine
so readily with the native in giving preIdominence
to military over civio services!

Gold lit Arbkvilb.?It would really
seem that Abbeville District is destined
to become a point of attraction for the golddiggers,
as well as California and Australia.
The success of Mr. Horn, the owner of the
much-talked of mine located in that District
within ono mile of the Edgefield line, is
indeed wonderful. His income from the
working of eight hands is about fifteen
hundred dollars a day. This amount Is
obtained from fifteen bushels of dirt, or
ore, which is pulverized by a mill of two
horse power. There is alto an extensive
manganese raino on Mr. Horn's land. This
mineral is used extensively in manufacturing
chlorine for the purpose of bleaching
glaring pottery, and clarifying glass. These
mines are estimated to be worth one million
of dollars.
i The success of Mr. Dorn has stimulated
a number of gentlemen in that vicinity to
form a Company, the explorations of the
t^reeor four thousand acres of land, which
the Company have purcheased, am sufficiently
encouraging to mdnea them to
erect a steam mill for the purpoae of
grinding the ore. So writes a correspondent
of toe Abbeville Banner. This latter
scheme, it la easy to for esse, will result in
a burst up.?Newterry Sntintl.
