and the apportionment of representatives under
the census. Upon examining the Journal, how
ever, it was found that the Census and the APP
pOrtionment bill had already been referred. Mr.
Weller, therefore, withdrew his motion,
Mr.. Slade, of Vermont, then took the floor
and advocated the reference of the Tariff subject
to the Committee on Manufactures, as moved by
MIR. Fillmore, instead of the Committee of Ways
and Means, as moved by Mr.. Anterior, of New
Hampshire. He commenced, by sending to the
Clerks table resolutions from the State of Ver-
mont, declaring that labor was honorable and
manufactures very important. Mr.. Slade went
at great length into the subject. He compared
notification to the tail of a great red dragon, and
argued that liberty and prosperity depended up
on the price of wool in the Green Mountains
He said he wanted truth, and went terrible
crooked and round about way after it.
Mr.. Sellers, of Maryland, now obtained the
floor, but gave way TO a motion to adjourn.
The House, then, at IA before 3, P. M. adj

Buchanan, formerly the head of the committee Is
the only Democrat left on it, and he is put be-
low Messrs. Rives and Preston, and is hedged
up by Messrs. Tallmadge and Choate on the 9TH
er side. Thus bound hand and foot by oPpo-
nents, he can do nothing on the committee, OF
through the committee, with the Chamber or the
Departments.
/, The Committee on Finance. the most impor-
tant committee, is organized in the same way
four to one. The former able chairman of that
committee, Mr.. Wright of New York, is remov-
ed from it altogether. Mr.. Evans is put at the
head. Mr.. Mangum is his second. Mr.. Wood
bury is then introduced; and to wedge him up
effectually, Messrs. Bayard and Berrien bring
up the rear.
The Committee on Manufactures is composed
in the same way. Mr.. Buchanan is put in be-
twixt four political opponents.
The Committee on Military Affairs shows a
little relaxation of the rule. Mr.. Benton, the
former chairman, is put under Mr.. Preston
and Mr.. Merrick, and has Mr.. Archer on his
heels but then Mr.. Pierce is admitted to give
the Democracy two voices on questions of ma
tional defence.
The Committee on Public Lands, which took
upon itself the fatal responsibility of revolution
izing the system as engrafted on the Constitution,
and carried out in detail by a law passed by the
fathers of the Government, is fashioned precise
ly on the mode of the Committees of Finance
Foreign Affairs, and Manufactures. 1t is four
to one Federal-Mr. Smith of Indiana, is chair
man-Mr. Tallmage his second-Mr.W Walker
of Mississippi comes next, and is then overland
by Messrs. Huntington and Prentiss.
The Committee on Naval Affairs is also four
to one; Mr.. Williams of Maine being the only
Democrat on it.
The Committee on the Judiciary is in the same
predicament Mr.. Walker of Mississippi be-
ing the only Democrat on it.
These are the only committees which originate
measures of public and national importance.
All the able and experienced, which make up
the phalanx of talent in the body are excluded
from the committees which bring questions ofin-
lere>t DtlOrc ut country WI. Mig - SiiCa
upon the Committee on Commerce, under Hun
and Mr.. Woodbridge; and Mr.. Wright
is put at the tail under Barrow, a Senator of The
last session only.
Messrs. Allen, Cuthbert, Sewer, and others,
long accustomed to the business Of Congress,
will be found stuck at the end of unimportant
committees, under Federal members who are
perfect novices in the Senate. Mr.. Calhoun de-
clined serving on any committee.
We have not room now to analyzethe standing
committee of the House. We may do it hereafter.
1t is sufficient for our purpose TO say, that
they are constituted precisely like those of the
Senate in regard to the place occupied by the
Democracy upon them, and are SO thoroughly
in the hands of the Federal party, that the Dem
ocrats cannot find a channel through one of them,
for any measure they deem it for the public good
to propose.

No Time to Read.

We have often encountered men who profess
to believe they have no time to read. Now we
think of it, there have always been men of such
character, the points OF which are easily summed
up.
Nine times out of ten they are men who have
not found time to confer any substantial benefit
either upon their families or themselves.
They generally have time to attend public bar
bacues, sales and singing schools, but they have
no time to read.
They frequently spend whole days in gossiping,
tipling and swapping horses, but they have mo
time to read
They sometimes lose a day asking the advice of
their neighbors; sometimes a day in picking up
the news, the price current, and the exchange, but
these men can never have time to read
They have time to hunt, to fish, to fiddle, to
drink to-'do nothing, but mo time to read
Such men generally have uneducated children,
unimproved farms, and unhappy firesides. They
have no energy, no spirit of Improvement, no
love of knowledge; they live unknown and Of
ten die unwept and unregreted.
FINANcrERING.-The Philadelph,a Spirit
of the Times Of the 18th ult. states that The
Attorney General Of the Stale has been d.
rected by the Grand Jury of PHILADELPHIA
County to draw up bills Of indictment for
''~conspiracy, with intent to defraud- the
stockholders of the Bank of the U. States
against Nicholas Biddle, Samuel Jaudon

others.

To-day is the time that has been appointed
for the meeting of the Democrats of our county,
to instruct our delegates to the State convention.
We trust that the proceedings will pass off free
of excitement; and when the duties of the day
shall be discharged, that each and every man may
return to his home, satisfied with the result. The
time is rapidly approaching when we shall have to
buckle on our armor in the contest for county
officers. Let every thing then from this day
forward be union, harmony and concert; in
order that we may show to the world at the en-
suing August, that " Old Pike is forever free of

IN THE HOUSE,

After prayers-and very good prayers too
by the Chaplain of the Senate, the Journal was
read.
Mr.. Snyder, of Pennsylvania, offered a reso-
luton similar to that adopted by the Senate, (on
motion of Mr.. Mangum,) TO appoint a Standing
Committee on Printing. Objected to.
Mr.. Snyder moved to suspend the rules; but,
upon putting the question to the House, the
Wings refused to go the figure. The Madisonian
is, therefore, to be punished, and the intelligent
Ger is to go free.
Mr.. Everett, of Vermont, made a motion in
relation to the Reporters for the Intelligencer
and the Globe. Not in in order.
Mr.. Walker called for the orders of the day,
and moved to take the question upon referring
all the Presidents Message to the appropriate
Committees, exec pting the question of reference
under discussion, viz +: that portion relating to
the Tariff.
After o desultory debate, Mr.. Weller
modified his motion so as to confne it to that por-
ton of the Message which relates to the census,

THE RADICAL.
SATURDAY, JANUARY 8, 1912.

The letter of Mr.. Wise in reply to an in
~vitation given to the Gilmer dinner, has created
no little excitement among the adherents of Mr..
Clay. He reviews with Indignation the over
bearing course of the dictator at the late extra
session, and, like Malary, swears, never to wear
the livery of one who ~evinces an utter disregard
for principle, and such an indomitable love for self.

For the benefit of those gentlemen who figure
men, we copy the following apt remarks from the
Hannibal Journal.
We are very frequently asked why we do not
publish the numerous marriages which occur
among us, when W. probably do not hear of them
for several weeks after the happy knot istied.
We hope those for whom the extract is intended,
will not in future forget so important a part of
their duties. By the way, we heard our Devil
complain bitterly, a few weeks since, 'that,
POUNDS them they could sometimes think of the
notice, but always forget to accompany it with
anything in the shape of-cake.''

ket or on n waiter. He then selects a bot
tie Of the finest wine. and n 'ew of such other
~"fixIns' as he finds on the table. and these he
places alongside of the slice of cake. He
then tnkes n piece of paper and makes a

Col. Thomas - all Of this county.
This note and the aforementioned "doins.'
must be sent 10 the nearest printer, who will
dispose of them as custom directs.
A due attention to the performance of the
above described ceremony is supposed to
have a great influence on the luck Of the new
ly married couple. 1t is therefore hoped it
will not be neglected"
Il We clip the following from the Globe,
relative to congressional committees, which will
give our readers a faint insight into the doings
Of Whiggery at Washington. 1t will be dis
that the most prominent members of the
for years past have been among
the first In the councils of the nation,-whose
business habits and prompt discharge of official
duties eminently suited them for the first stations
on the most important committees, are now in
effect almost wholly excluded from any chance
of ferreting out the abuses of the Government.
or from taking an active part in the labors aud
of the session. 1t is however onlv in
strict accordance with the past acts of the party
since their elevation to power, and should not be
a source of surprise.
In our article of yesterday we alluded to
organization of the committees as presenting
an lnsuperable bar to the introduction of meas.
ures for which, as a party, the Democracy could
be responsible. A glance at the leading COM
mittee will show at once how entirely the Dem
ocratic side of both branches is shorn of infu-
ence IN the preparation or presentment of meas
ures.
