AN APPEAL TO THE CoUNTRY.-It is I'M
derstood here that the Democratic members
of the Senate and House intend to unite
in statement to the country of the disa-
blities they have labored under in endeav.
oring to discharge their duty to their con-
stituents. The Republican majority has been
shamefully intolerant, and has not allowed
that free discussion on disputed points OF
public policy which has been usual in all
previous Congresses. They have not been
allowed to express their views on the SUBJ
ject Of arbitrary arrests, and all their mo
lions to investigate alleged Irregularities
and corruptions have either been quietly
negatived, or else referred to partizan com.
mittees, which amounts to about-the same
thing. This document, which is partly
written, and is in fact an appeal to the
country against the legislation of the past
session, ia represented as being very able
and will create very general attention.
