PUBLIC PRINTER.

In the Senate ON Saturday, Mn. CHAMBERS
intimated wish to take up the resolution ap-
pointing day for the election OF Public pr'n'
ter, if it should be understood that the Senator
from. Missouri, would not be inclined. after
what had passed elsewhere. TO occupy the Sc
nate at any length with remarks on the subject.
Mn. BExroN said that he had introduced his
joint resolution because he considered that The
election of a Printer for the next Congress, ny
the Congress now in session, was violation OF
the constituent and inherent rights OF that Con-
eress. His course would be in no way Affected
by what had passed elsewhere.
Nh. CHAMBERS then gave notice tina: ne should
ask the Senate or Monday yesterday to consi-
der the resolution.

CONGRESSIONAL ELoQUEVcE.

The heading of this article may be misnomer.
We should, perhaps, have used any other word
than eioquence. Truly may we say, in view Of
the Congress Talks, ",nuch speaking is weari-
ness of the Acsh." The New York Courier &
Enquirer has good observation on this subject,
which ought to be taken into serious consideration
by those concerned.
"Such is the enormous length Of most of the
speeches delivered in both Houses Of Congress,
and such the endless repctitions they contain,
that few people, we imagine, read them, and thus
the nation loses all chance Of being enlightened
by these discussions. This is great fault in
oratory. No man expects an essay or disserta-
ton IN popular deliberate assembly. 1t is out
Of place entirely. The business Of the orator is
to select few prominent points. which present
themselves in all great questions, and on which
decision always ought and will turn. The
miuuta-the minor parts, may safely and pro.
pers be let alone, or handed over to those whose
capacities are only adequate to the conprehen.
or Cicero, when pleading the cause OF nations,
ever delivered such tedious harangues as some
Of our Demosthenes' and Ciceros' do OH cotton

Votaire who observes, sthe true secret Of be.
ing tedious is to say all that can be said On SUBJ
ject." Our orators improve on this precrpl;
they not only say all that can be said, but they
repeat it over hundred and fifty times, il not in
the course of single speech at least during the
session."

arose from the galleries and Hobbies. which were
in consequence thereof Immediately cleared OF

The long expected debate between the champion
of Modification and the advocate OF Union and

has resulted in new triumph for the friends Of

heard responding to the sentiments Of patriotism
which this debate has elected.
