Secret Sessions and. the Brokers.

Alter the House of Representatives opened its doors
Saturday preparatory to adjOurHg, motion was made
that the further discussion of the subject that engaged
their private deliberations should be in open session.
The cause othe motion is stated by memberstO have
been the acertainment of the fact that copy OF the
Report of the Special Com nitee finance had fallen
into The hands of the brokers Oft city If this SO,
there can be no dOub. that thspubc should be made
acquainted with at lost much as is known torthe
brokers' otherwise the advantage which these shrewd
gentry always have of the people will be so Increased
as 10 place the latter entirely at their mercy. The same
means that were used to get possession of the Report
world probably plaza before the brokers all the other
proceedings of the House. and issasJ see how they
possessing such information, and tie PUBLIC being en-
trey UNIFORMED will be able to operate to their own
enormous benefit and to the great Injury Of all with
whom they have transactions The only remedy is open
doors and public discussion. We hope the House will
gee the necessity of adopting this coure.
