had compared This with the Official record ana found
IL 10 he correct. lie wanted % know II tne injmc
ton OF secrecy had been removed from the proceed
ings Of that session, aud II nor, how this vote was
made cuolc.
The Vice President replied that the Injunction OF
secrecy had not been removed. lie had no idea how
the vote on Mr. MurphY's confirmation got out or
how The HERALD correspondent managed 10 get H.
He supposed however that THO correspondent
had made up his list OF yeas and nays from
what he knew OF the opinions or seniors from
conversation with them upon the subject. He
had known that thlng TO be done before,
and It had surprised him at tho accuracy
OF the Lists published The HERALD correspondents
were unusually enierprisng, ana it had often
astonished him TO SEQ reports IN that paper when
he knew were difficult to get hold Of and which
were considered as private as anything IN INC
executive seaslols OF the Senate.
This seemed 70 at once astoDsh aud satisfy sena-
tor Foreman, and he su5sIdej, Win the remark
that there was enterprise IL the newspapers
OF his State.

about these things. He had no doubt that cores
pondent wonld publish the ofclal journal of every
executive session Ii he could get hoid OF It,. 1t
wold be IN keeping with the general course OF the
herald.

olccrs and clerks Of the Senate. who were admitted
10 the executive sessions, he felt bound TO say that
ss.fxao and had a, led hy
