more especially he did not anlcipa, cany op

BUSINESS OF CONGRESS.

THE MISSISSIPPI CONTESTED ELEcToN-PuBLTc TASTE.
This subject was the order of the day in the House
on Tuesday a.
A preliminary question arose whether Messrs.
PRENrlss and WoRp should occupy seats in the Hall,
which being settled in the affirmative, the docu-
ments ofthe parties were laid before the House.
In the course of the discussion arising upon the
question whether the statements of Messrs. Claiborne
and GholSon should b. printed at the public expense,
Chose of Messrs. Prentiss and Word having been
printed at their own private cos) an alteration OF
personal character ensued between Mr.. Wise, of
Virginia and Mr.. Gholson of Mississippi The
words used by those members and the proceedings
taken thereupon by the House, win appear in the
report The House was thrown into state of ex-
element and complete confusion, which continued
until the moment of adjournment.
We could not but notice the crowds of spectators
that filed the galleries during the whole Of this pro-
ceedng We have always considered these affairs as
sdsgracefl outrages upon the rules of order, and
derogaory TO the character of the House of Represcn
ta,ives. Yet people rushed 10 this exhibition, with
the same intense curiosity and excitement that many
would hasten to a cock-fght or bullbaiting. j.
learned member had arisen TO carry The House upon
any important measure by the force of argument, or
vast intellect had showered upon the House its
measureless riches, how tame, lisliess and thin,
would the galleries have appeared and the voice OF
eloouence might have fallen upon as dull as the
marble pillars that support the dome. But excite
the mauksh Sensiblity of this latitude with ideas Of
wounded honor, let people hear the language Of per-
sonal bravado, in Short let them see disposition 10

SPECIE PAYING BANKS.

We take the following just remarks from
the New York American of Monday last.
more ridiculous farce was never acted, than
that of banks claiming to be specie paying,
in consequence of announcing that they will
pay their notes in specie; after they have
Withdrawn nearly the whole from circulation
which they had out and refusing to issue a
single dollar anew.
No bank is entitled to the credit of specie
paying, that does not pay all demands on 1t
in specie.
There is not a single bona fdc specie pay
ing bank at this time, in the Union; and it
is practicing deception on the community
to encourage the supposiion tina, there is.
1.-THE Commercial Bank Of Albany, we are gratifed to
announce resumed yesterday the payment OF ITS notes
in specie.
The Bank Of Albany, we ato also authorized to state
resumed yesterday the payment Of its notes IN specie
All the Banks OF this city have now resumed specie
payments"
We cannot but look upon this notice from the Argus,
upon some similar notices in some OF our city pa
pcrs, respecting three banks here, as iudcous,
and, possibly, injurious by misleading opinion
1t is not accursre in point OF fact, TO say OF any
bank, that it has resumed specie payments when i
docs not pay its deposes IN specie II required us wen
its notes and when moreover, its notes had mainly
been withdrawn before giving the notice.
Itlooks, too like "paltcnng with US IN double
sense"
