SERGEANT-AT-ARMS TO THE SENATE
Mr.. EDWARD DYER, of this city, was yester-
day elected Sergeant to the Senate, by
majority Of 6 votes.
The Senate took up the resolution to dismiss
Blair & Rives from the Office of Printers to that
body, and after some discussion, adjourned till
TO day, when the subject will again be taken up,
and probably be disposed Of. 1t can hardly be
expected that editors who have been heretofore
SO grossly abusive Of the present majority in the
Senate can be permitted TO continue to hold an
office which is at the disposal of those whom
they treat with contumely 1t is our hope that
they may not only be removed, but that the
position they have SO long occupied, may be
filled by some person or persons more acceptable
to the majority of that body, and the majority of
the people outside.

sons OF their dangerous proximity to the enemy
in war.
