IRON Maine [N1r BRADBURY in one remark have
never consented on any occasion, 10 interrupt the DIS
cussion upon my bill for the consideration OF any other
subject At the time my friend from Rhode Island lMr
CLARKE] made the appeal TO in behalf OF the senator
from New Jersey, Mr. MILLER, some ten days since,
did not consent 10 have my bill postponed, but was
overpowered. My friends came to me, and suggested
that it would be good policy to allow that senator to go
with his remarks, as there was hope that by per.
mng that 10 be DONE we might perhaps gain vote IN
favor Of my bill and have it passed very soon Laugh
Mr. GWIN am very sorry to see that the senator
from Iowa mr. JoNEsl does not conceive i good policy

speeches to be made upon it.. The senator IRON New
York Mr. SIwAKD Is to speak today and io,morIow IN orr
Mr. GWIN. am glad to hear it

MIR. ATCHISoN As to this matter OF policy, will
say that The seEa.or from California [Mr, GwN] u
bound for bill because the State OF Caiornla
is in the category with the State OF Iowa, as the
most of il is now public lands and the senator agrees
Mr.. GWIN. Not 10 make speeches upon il.
MIR. ATCHISON. No, sir; not 10 make speeches sp
on il. That explains the matter Of policy we hay, have
nothing TO ask of the senator from California, lMr
GwlN,l for we expect him to vote for the bill anyhow
[Laughter]
Mr. RUSK. will consume but few moments, Mr.
President should like very much ge, vote ,aker
upon this Iowa bill Now, found, when first took my
seat in this body, practice which think !, would o.
well to revive. 1t was one which depended upon IN
courtesy OF the Senate, and never knew an appeal mad
to that courtesy IN vain upon cases OF lnis description
com. forward and had been debated at length and ma
ory of the Senate understood TO be settled IN opnio
upon merits, customary then TO name some iutut
day. which would afford time for all who wished 10 max
their speeches for against the BILL upon which the Sen
ate would agree, matter OF courtesy to take The vot
upon the bill hope. therefore that something OF .ns
occasion for the purpose, would suggest 10 the senate
from Iowa Mr. JosEs to indicate some day next week
and see IT, by common consent, the Senate VIII not agree
matter OF courtesy TO take the vote upon mat "a
upon his BILL
Mr.. CLARKE. hope the Senate will consent to th
motion which | have submitted 10 them. There is n
disposition interfere with The bill OF the senator iron
California Mr. GwIsl or the bill OF The senator iron
Iowa Mr. Joshs in hs passage Of Which they hey an,e are
is simply TO accommodate the senator from New York

Mr. DOWNS | have much inconvenienc
resulting from bs practice Of taking up measures out
