TUESDAY, August 3, 1871
Mr.. TALLMADGE presented petition or los
citizens OF New York in favor of a BANKRUPT law
which was laid on the table
The resolution of Mr. ALLEN to rtscind the rule of
the Senate Tor the closing of their doors while in Ex-
ecutlse business, except when engaged treaties,
was taken up.
MI ALLEN advocated it, at some length. The
business which transacted in Executive sessions
was, fist on treaties; and second on nominations of
public officers. When engaged treaties with TO
reign powers, whose interests adverse and even
hostile to ours il might be Of great importance that
the progress of business should not be known until
was consummated He therefore did not propose TO
resclnd this portion of the rule.
But when engaged On the nominations Of officers
whose character and actions for evil or for good deep
ly affected the interests of the people there could be
no reason for them the agents OF the people trans
act without their knowledge he husinees Of their
principals but il was treating them as enemies. The
people ought to be enabled To give their testimony as
to the character Of the Rulltudes of officers brought
before the Senate, the characters of many of whom
il impossible for them be acquainted with; and
the public examination would not nure the charac.
ter OF those who worthy while il would expose
guilt and corruption
Mr. CLAY should not enter into this discussion
