An Extra Session.

An extra session of congress is still talked of, and one will probably bo called to meet in September. Not, however, to repeal the tariff, which wo are told was the one grand object of all good democrats and the only question before the American people, but to taka action on the money question. The reformers and the gold-bugs have both forced this question to tho issue. Tho majority of congress are pledged to their constituents for financial reform, and whether in extra or regular session, it remains to be seen whether Wall street bribery can control enough votes to plunge the nation deeper in debt and hang another burden around tho neck of the producer and laborer. Congress is being watched closer than ever before, and its members should beware how they trifle with their pledges.— Mt. Vernon (Ill.) Progressive Farmer.
