WHEREFORE SHOULD 1T BE.

Some Of our citizens have been, and still
are, in the habit Of purchasing their groce-
ries, dry goods, clothing, ETC., in Baltimore.
Now, while we have not any motive Of
personal nature to interfere with the m
doubted right of everybody or anybody to
make their purchases where they please,
we would nevertheless inquire what good
end is subserved by this proceeding on the
part Of our citizensH The prices current
Of oil staple articles arc as low in WASH
ington as in Baltimore. Indeed, consider
ing the time spent and the incidental cx-
penses which necessarily accrue in effect
ing these purchases, II may be safely as
sumed that almost all articles of prime
necessity bought by our citizens in Balti-
more, actually cost them more money than
they would expend il they made their pur-
chases in Washington. 1t often happens
that-to use a cant phrase--"men go a
woolling and return shorn;" and there is
such thing as penny wise and q pound
foolish policy into which some people fall
inadvertently, and still think themselves
shrewd. We have not the slightest objec-
tions to the merchants Of Baltimore, and
wish them all the prosperity which they
can fairly get; but we do believe in keep.
ing our money at home, by patronizing
our own immediate neighbors, especially
when, in the long run, we are the gaineri
by this course. It can be shown by com
parison of the prices current in the two
cities, that all articles Of home necessity car
be had here al as rilr prices as rney can b'
pu.chased in Baltimore. We will, in I
few days, by comparative tables, demon
strntps this.

Senate Yesterday.

The Senate, immediately after prayer
and the reading Of the journal Of yester-
day, on motion of Mr.. Anthony, went into

Subseque ntly resolution was adopted
to extend the session TO Saturday next at
4 O'Clock.
An executive session refused TO adopt
the report Of the Committee on Foreign
Affairs, which afirms that the Austrian
ministry is not vacant. This brings before
that body the confirmation or rejection Of
Mr.. Raymond. The question will be fur
ther considered to-day. 1t is thought the
question OF Mr.. kaymond's confirmation
will be postponed until December.
Col. Cate was confirmed as Collector of
Customs at Philadelphia.
The gentlemen whose names were sent
to the Senate by the President yesterday
for surveyor and naval officer for the port
Of Philadelphia were rejected; so also was
the name Of Mr.. Yeatman, nominee for
postmaster at Cincinnati.
A gentleman by the name Of Wiley
was confirmed as collector of internal rev.
enuc for the Lancaster district, Pennsyl-
vania. Mr.. Stevens was opposed to this
mans confirmation, and he was some time
since rejected, since which six other nomi.
nations have been made, but all unsucc ess-
ful. The Senate returns finally to this
man, and he is confirmed. Mr.. Wiley
is the candidate Of Mr.. Cameron.
