AN IMPROVEMENT SINCE THE PLANTATION DAYS.
Gl'rom IIarper's Weekly, July 1athl
The manners of Congress- indeed, are marvel
ously improved since the days of the plantation
ascsndency. Tho passages between General
other honorable gentlemen, are very much more
tolerable than those of the time of lIarksdale,
Preston Brooks, James NJ. Mason and wigfall.
We do not expect now, as then, to see bowie
knives opening, revolvers glistening, and wigs
flying when a difference occurs nor il it easy
now to imagine Representative going into the
Senate chamber and deliberately attempting the
assassination of Senator in his scat while other
Senators look calmly on. Therefore, disagreeabe
and notifying the Republican pickering is, il
is not barbarous ferocty, as when the Demo-
cratic party, struggling to perpctuate slavery,
is the party that laughaby calls itself "corscr-
yatiyc" which played the bully in Congress, as it
did in the politics of the country.
