PUBLIC PRINTERS.

1t vas with sincere pleasure that we were ena'
bIed to announce to our readers IN our last, the
election of GALES & SEAroN as Printers 10 the
House of Representatives. Under all the CIR
circumstances, the evidence thus gwen OF con-
idence in these gentlemen. is most gratifying
Ever, effort was made to secure to the pension
ed Globe the support Of the House. and 1t re-
port speaks true. recommendations in favor Of
the Editor Of that print, were exhibited from the
highest source and urged with pertnacity upon
those who ere con,idered doubtful. All would
not do, however. Tie House sustained its own
character. and, after a hard struggle, elected the
gentlemen whom we have named.
The character Of the Editors of the National
Intelligencer as gentlemen and as editors, did
not require this event to sustain it; but as an no.
norable tribute to their worth, il is most refresh.
ing in such times as we live in. The disnihed
stand they have always taken, and their adher'
ence to correct principles. have elevated them
deseryedly in the estimation OF the American
People; and the vote of the House Of Represen
tatves will be every where hailed as correct
and proper one.

Iiticians at Richmond, but We are cefta'n' "'"'

Mr.. R.ves, at once established his repu'atio" a'
Senator of ablity.& competent in every way VIZ
present the ancient Commonwealth. BY "h'ch "e
has been so much honored. There are some things
which we wish he had not said-there were pas
sa ecs in reference to the President " hieh"e
thought were weak-but take it as a whole inc
speech was one that did great honor to his talents
His refutaton of the doctrine OF nu'!ihcat'on
was complete. and he Indignantly repud'ated II as
not being consti,utionaIy sound in any one sense.
Mr.. Rives spoke to a full Senate and crowded
audience, and the conviction was universal, that
the new Senator had made his debut under the
most Aattering circumstances, and with every
thug IN his favor.
