Senatorial Dignity.

Senate, says the Ohio State Journal, was the
appearance Of Mr.. Day of Cleveland, colored
man, as the reporter for his paper the Alien
ed AMERICAN He was admitted TO a scat as
reporter. by a vote OF the Senate. But
soon after it was rumored through the city,
that the Senate had come doaoS 50 low as to
associate itself with colore& man. Where
upon there was quite stir in the camp, and
a motion was made to reconsider the vote by
which he was admitted rs a reporter. The
motion to reconsider was made by Senator
Anderson of Lawrauce Co. The design oi
course is, to expell him from the Senate. The
motion was layed on the table, on account Of
the absence of MIR. Townsend, who made the
motion 70 admit him. Mercy on US! would
the admission of colorcd man as reporter
for his own paper into the Senate destroy the
dignity Of that body? lfhe has dark skin,
he may have whiier heart than some oi
those who now seek his degradation. But
how much his expulsion would add to the
dignity Of the Senate, who can tell?
