In the Senate, the House .was engaged the whole day in the consideration of a Resolution offered by Mr. Walker, of Miss., for the appointment of a Committee to inquire into the expediency of electing an equal number of Reporters from each of the two political parties, who shall be sworn to report the proceedings with all practical fidelity.

After some remarks from Mr. Calhoun, King and more surprise is to find meajbers of Congress endorsing the charge, after the lucid and satisfactory exposition upon the subject on the floor of the House of Repre sentatives by Mr. Mason of Ohio ; and especially in the face of the fact that these very members of Congress are themselves sanctioning a similar law, by permit ting it to remain in force in this District, into which it was transferred as law forty years ago from the statute book of Maryland ! Our object in noticing the subject at this time, how ever, is to ask the attention of our readers to the fol lowing: From the Portsmouth (N. H.) Journal.
