Editorials.

The article presents editorials on various social and political developments of the world. The United States Congress has been convened in extra session ten times since 1789; one such session, which began in Washington on Monday, closely resembles to the Congress, which met on September 4, 1837. Then, as now, the commercial depression had urged the Executive to convoke Congress in extra session. One of the editorials informs that during the past fifteen years the U.S. have been frequently told by the silverites that the Indian wheat-growers and other producers were gaining an advantage over the American citizens in the export trade by reason of the decline in silver.
