The compromise — the meeting of Congress A Washington dispatch to the Philadelphia Inquirer says: There is a sentiment pervading here among Northern visitors which tends strongly towards a compromise. But all is vague. Still it is the feeling, and one which, I believe from common rumor, President Lincoln himself cherishes. A confirmation, in part, of it, is found in the course of Gen. Scott, who, while he is carefully guarding every point, and bringing our gallant volunteers up to the highest standard of military perfection, is not disposed to strike a decisive blow until after the meeting of Congress.
