Litchfield enquirer., 1841-06-10

When the old Clerk, MT. Garland, in calling the names of the members, by states, came to New-Jer- sey, and called those whom two years before he had refused to do, general murmur of applause was heard. He made no hat however, till he was checked for a reason why he called the name of Mr. Banks, of Va. whose case was precisely parallel to the former NewIersey claimants, to wit, having the "broad seal ofthe Governor of Virginia, though it is doubtful who has majority of the people. On Tuesddy the Senate met at 10 o'clock, and made the preliminary measures for the reception of the Message of the President Messrs Huntington and Archer were the committee to wait upon him. After the delivery ofthe Message 10000 copies were proposed to be printed. MT. Clay of Ky, moved that only one half the usual number be printed as it was waste ofpaper and expense. as nearly every news- paper in the land would publish it, and it would thus be in the hands of the people before it could be sent to them by members of Congress.
 In the House, some conversation took place about the rules, the seats of the members &c. 10000 CO., pies of the Message ordered to be printed MT.
