4 fact Of rather curious character, oc

Of our politicians. The Constitution went

On the 29,h of April, 1890, a motion was
submitted, "that the doors Of the Senate
Chamber shall be open when the Senate

United States as may choose 10 hear the
debates Of this House, may have an oppor-
tunity of so doing" But 10 on the follow.
iug day this resolution was considered,
aud negalived."
! On the 22d November, 1890, the Leg
isla,ra of Virginia unanimously instructed
their Senators in Congress "to use their
utmost endeavors to procure the admission
of the citizens Of the United States, to hear
the debates of their House, whenever they
are sitting in their Legislative capacity
In consequence Of this instruction, Mr.
| Monroe, one of the Senators from Virgin.
ia, submitted a resolution that the doors OF
the Senate Chamber remain open whilst
the Senate shall be sitting in a Legislative
capacity, except on such occasions as, IN
their Judgment, may require secrecy
! After an animated debate, this resolution
was rejected by vote of II to 0.
At the next session of the Virginia Leg
islature, n similar resolution was adopted
and on the Goth March, 1892, Mr.. Mon
