"QSstsqaO tandem, &e.-Inour present week
" notice Of the proceedings of the Peoples Re-
representatives. in Congress, it will occasion no
surprise to our readers to be informed that there
has yet, after five days further voting, been no
choice made Of presiding officer Of that body.
such indeed is the deplora6Ie pass to which par
" spirit has brought the public affairs at the
scat Of government, that it would now occasion
more surprise to see it announced that Speak
or had been elected than it will to see il stated
that the Riasty: fourth vote, at the end of the
fifth week of the session, was almost precisely
the same as the votes for month past had been.
And now, for all that We can see, the members
might Just As well return to their homes for q
month, were it competent for them to do so,
lsayin9the Clerk still to call the roll in the inte-
rim, four times every day, and set down the
names Of the members just as they stand record
cd during the laStmonth. and just as though all
the members continued to assemble in the han
GsiIy and give the Same responses rs they have
Siyen for the past month. They would be thus
saved for q season t e trorb'e Of fFuiHess at

ANOTHER AMERICAN 1MPR1s.
ONED IN FRANCE.

A Paris letter relates the following of Mr..
Goodyear, the New York India Rubber manu-
hcturer, whohas been spending some time, and
money, too it appears at the late French Exhi-
bition:
The day that Mr. Goodyear received his deco
ration he was seized for debt and thrown into
Clichy. The law of Frsncein the matter of debt
Is uniustly severe on foreigners. Mr. Goodyear
has been three times in Clichy during his short
residence in France. Last year he employed q
carriage maker Of Paris to make him 4 carriage
Of the most elegant and costly form, complete in
yulcAnixed india rubber. Mr.. Goodyear was to
furnish the material, aud was to pay for the job
. large sum of money. The material was partly
furnished and about the time the job wSS COM
uenced the manufacturer sued Nh: Goodyear
for the whole sum. Mr.. Goodyear refused to
pay, aud as no warning is here given to foreign
err, he was seized, thrown into prison, and only
