SENATE.-Anthony made a report
from the Committee on Printing
against printing additional copies of
the report of the Commissioner of
Agriculture, but providing 1000
copies of those heretofore ordered to
be furnished that officer in order to
meet the demand upon him.
Chandler said the Senate had been
remarkably liberal towards nominees,
and as an instance of how they ex-
pressed their gratitude, he caused to
be read a newspaper article. The
Clerk read it in substance, that a COM
plimentary serenade was, on Thurs
day night, rendered j ohm w. Frazier,
recently confirmed as Assessor of In
ternal Revenue for the First District
of Pennsylvania. This gentleman is
reported to have said, in acknowledg-
ing the honor, that number of his
radical friends had invited him to re-
turn to the fold, which he declined.
He did not feel under any obligations
to the Senate, for he was appointed to
fill the vacancy politically. He was
still Conservative-in favor of John
son, Grant, and the Supreme Court,
and in contradistinction to Sumner,
Stevens, and Butler. He was against
the radical element trampling the
Constitution under foot, and the in
jury of the currency, &c.
Sumner did not, as was expected,
call up his resolution for the expul-
sion Of Salisbury.
The Senate then went into execu-
tive session.
