RorArroN IN CONGRESS-.

. The great secret of southern influence in
Congress, for o long period, was the continued
reelection of the same members to Congress.
BY this means they were enabled to harmonic
and to combine alike for future as for present
purposes. The decline of this conservative
influence may be dated from the period when
the northern fashion of rotation was introduced
at the south. Csseris pari6us, a member Of
ten years standing is worth half dozen new,
raw, inexperienced members. This, we take
it, is the experience of every new member.
He cannot but feel that, should he remain ten
years in Congress, his ability to serve his coun-
try and constituents would be very materially
advanced. We believe the conviction of most
members is, that it is for the interest of every
constituency to retain, as long as they can, a
member who has proved himself watchful, at
tentive, and competent
For constituency to reward q politician by
removing an able and experienced Representa-
tive, is to give him very small reward, at an
inconceivable expense to themselves, and con-
tinuance of such course must eventually be
r..
made painfully apparent.
Our remarks apply, of course, to those who
have proved themselves faithful and efficient
Had the system of rotation held universal sway
from the beginning, what pitiful history
would be that of congressional action. A sin
gle Congress compels members to speak when
they would not if they we're sure of being re.
turned to Congress. In the latter case, they
would be natural and look forward to securing
an honorable fame, while otherwise, they are
often compelled to make mere stump efforts
in order to secure reelection, and nothing
else.
We throw out these suggestions, in the hope
that some method of reward may be substituted
less expensive and less injurious to the country,
than that of rewarding partizans at the ex-
pense of the best interests of the country and
the dignity and usefulness of Congress.
Rotation in Congress will never secure Cal

A SURPRISE.

Senator Seward made speech in the Senate
on Wednesday last on the Homestead bill. he
took that occasion to express himself in re-
gard to the organization denominated "Know
Nothings." His remarks, no doubt, caused
much surprise throughout the country, for the
0pinion prevailed that there was some sympa-
thy between them and the northern wbig party,
Of which Mr.. Seward is the distinguished chief.
What may be the precise object of Senator
Seward in denouncing the "Know Nothings,"
we will not at this time undertake to say. His
thoughts and purposes are not the thoughts
and purposes of ordinary minds. They are
profound, and often past finding out.
We are, however, glad to see that Senator
Seward declares against that secret organiza-
ton, and hope that ere long they will be de-
serted and denounced by all parties. We have
not the space for Governor Stewards remarks
this morning, but may yet have the opportunity
of presenting them to our readers.
1t is not easy to understand how party de-
nounced by Senator Seward, can yet be so
sedulously cultivated by other New York whig
leaders, and SO fraternally embraced by the
wings of Philadelphia and Of other cities and
States. There is some mystery about this
thing.
In Philadelphia, for instance, the know
nothings and wings harmonize. The editors
Of the leading whig paper, the North american,
are avowed and staunch advocates for the re.
nomination of the Catholic representative Of
that city, and it is supposed the nomination
viii be endorsed by the know-nothings. While,
in New York, Governor Seward considers the
know-nothiRgs as bigots, in Philadelphia, re-
igion is no part of their test.
