THE SENATE DEpArEs.-We really; begin to
wonder that Senators and Representatives in
Congress do not get tired of making and hear
ing speeches on the slavery question. Their
speeches settle nothing and the public have
ceased to take any interest in them For near
ly six months Congress has done little else than
discuss the negro question and the Dred Scott
decision. But who has been the least enlight-
ened hy this discussion Everything that can
be said. on either side, has been said over and
over again. until the arguments have become
so stale that few take the trouble Of reading
them. II Congressman can do nothing better
for the country than keep up an agitation
which dlsturbs the harmony of the States they
oughtto adjourn and spend their: at home.

CONGRESSIONAL REPORTING.

A much ;necded measure of eform has at
last been carried in the House Of Representa-
tives, and only those speeches actually deliver
cd in that body will be published in the Globe.
Hitherto the practice has been to publish in
that journal long speeches, whose erroneous
conclusions remained unanswered, simply be.
cause they were not heard. Many of these
speeches. not only were not spoken. but were
not even written by their presumed authors,
being prepared by literary men a. Washington
who make n living by writing speeches for
members of Congress. Besides it was geuer
al practice for members to alter materjally Y
their speeches after being written out by the
reporters, and thus the record was falsfcd.
This measure Of reform is regarded by some
as only first step to an entire abolition of the
present system of Congressional reporting
which finds many advocates, and is supported
by many strong reasons. a system Of report
ing by the independent press would ensure tn,
publcn ton of all that is really interesting ant
valuable in the current debates, at the sam,
time that itswoud avoid the expense Of pub
fishing the tedious nnd useless yerbiage Of gas
conading declamers.

lesion
The scceders finally adjourned, nfter advis-
ing the call of Convention to meet in Rich

principles ofIhe Majority Platform are called
upon to hold State Conven tions and send Dele
gates 10 the Richmond Convention, to consult
