The sight is still so rare of blind man under
taking to get position or livelihood as literary
man, that one is gratifed to see this neat volume
in second edition. Mr.. Bowen states that once,
in Japan, the blind constituted the only literary
class. This book is partly in the interest of all

of the natural sympathy one feels for the circum-
stances in which it was prepared, it contains prob
ably more information to the history, condition,
and mental habits Of the blind than could be easily
found elsewhere. The authors mind is decidedly

ResolUed, That the Committee on Mileage be
instructed to compute the mileage of members
upon the nearest mail route upon which mail
coaches or other convenient con yeyances run from
the residence Of members TO the seat of Govern
ment.
MIR. German Of Indiana had moved to amend
by striking out all after the word "resolved" and
inserting:
"Tbat the Committee on Mileage be instructed
to compute the mileage in accordaboe with the
express language of the law, TO wit By the most
usually travelled route from the residence of men,

Mr.. Carter of Ohio moved to amend the amend
ment by striking out all after the word resolved
and inserting,
That the Committee On Mileage be and is
hereby further instructed TO report bill that
shal limit the pay OF members OF Congress, as
far as the same relates to mileage TO the actual
and necessary time and expense involved in trav-
cling to and from the Capital, and otherwise to
equalize the pay of members
The question now was upon agreeing to the
amendment to the amendment
Mr.. Ashmun moved that the whole subject be
laid upon the table; which motion was agreed to.
The House resolved itself into Committee of
the Whole on the state Of tbs Union, and on mo-
ton of MIR Bayly of Virginia, took up the joint
resolution Of the Senate in relation to limiting
the expenses of collecting the revenue the present

tee for nearly an hour.
Mr.. Brown Of Mississippi obtained the floor,
and delivered speech on the Territorial Cues
ton, announcing the intention of the South to re-
sist the Wilmot Proviso at all hazards and to the
last extremity, and calculating the value of the
Union, and the effects of Disunion.
