The report concludes that farther notice be taken
OF the matter but that the Reporters and Editors OF
the paper be excluded from the Reporters Gallery
Some dscussi n arose between Messrs DIcKIS.

excluded. Mr.. Dickinson very properly suggest
ing that this should not be done. The matter was
finally laid over TIL tomorrow. the Senate simply
ordering the Report ana accompanying papers TO
be printed
The special order of the day was then brought up.
and Mr. CALHOUN addressed the Senate about an
hour and half. He was formerly opposed to the

He still thought that mastery inactivity would
have been the best course but the action OF others
had precipitated the matter. and be hoped the mat
