! Those who have not read history-who
do not know the class Of men whom we ate
to expect as Legislators in Revolutionary
times, such as these, when the great deep
of public opinion, profoundly agitated,
upheayes from its lowest depths. and
throws TO the surface its mire aud filth
will experience surprise and indignation at
much that transpires in Congress. The
insolcnt remarks Of Sumner, Wade and
Hale, when Trumbull, moro decent than
his follows, proposed to take up the bill to
previde a marble bust of Chief Justice
fancy FOR the Supreme Court room, af-
fotd an example of the point we woold
illustrate. But there is no occasion for
surprise and even indignation may be ro-
pressed. When we repIember that less
than hundred years ago, body of men,
kindred in many essential characteristics
to the present Congress, resolved that there
was no God, and that death is an eternal
sleep, we may well brook the insults which |
Sumner and Hale, and fellows of their
sort, offer to the memory of Judge Taney.
They can not harm the fame of the great
Chief Justice, to whose illustrious career
posterity will award the reverence which
i merits. For ourselves, we would much
Father the Senators would defeat the bill.
1t would please us il they would act upon
the suggestion of Wade, and appropriate
a sum to pay for burning the lamonted
Judge in eiiigy. We desire that, by no
act of decency, they shall i'm
pair the consistency of their Infamous his
Tory. fr

The New York Tribune SAYS that
Legislative venality is increasing, having
already become the most frightful evil of
the day. True. And it will continue to
increase so long as the people are unwise
enough to fill their Legislative assemblies
with venal Republican maiorities.

The Washington correspondent of the
Commercial, speaking of the Inauguration
ball, says "There is to be no exclusion on
account of character" We are glad to
hear it. We had very naturally supposed
that men who venerated the Constitution.
and revered the Sermon on the Mount
would not be admitted. After all. il
amounts to the same thing, practically; /;
for persons of the class we allude to, will
disdain to attend. Perhaps the cores

The Republicans of the Indiana Legis-
lature are trying to proceed with the ac-
customed lawlessness of their party. They
have endeavored, in conformity with can
Gus dictation, to pass appropriation bills
out of their order. TO this the Democracy
would not agree, and dead lock is the re
suit. The Democrats, over and over again,
have offered resolutions to suspend the
rules, SO that these bills might be reached
IN conformity with parliamentary usage
10 this the Republicans would not agree.
For some reason, il is their determination
to contemn and defy parliamentary rule
and usage, and force the passage of their
pet measures by lawless and revolutionary
mems
