THE LAND BILL.
It will be seen by the congressional proceed-
ings of Tuesday ofglast week. the above bill
passed the house of Representatives by a major-
ity of8 votes—yeas 116--trays 108. Not a sin-
gle loco voted _fbr_ the bill, while 18 whigs voted
against it-—viz :. Messrs Alvord. Dawson, Fos-
ter. Gamble, -Habersham. Warren. King. Nes-
bit and Merriwether—the entire Georgia dele-
gation‘; Gilmer, Mallory. Hunter and Wise, of
Virginia’; Graham‘. Shepard and Rcncher, of
N. Carolina; and Milton Brown.uf Tennessee.
The bank bill in the Senate. has been taken
in hand by the opposition—l\ir Buchanan lead-
ing olfin a set speech of two hours. on '.Vednes-
day last. Various amendments have since
been proposed, some of which have been adopt-
by small majorities. .
The right of free discussion will no doubt be
made a. cloak for much ttseles gabble and waste
of time, before this or any other intportaut
measure will be disposed of. yet notwithstand‘
iug. the business of the session appears to be
progressing with a slow but steady pace.
Two important amendments to the Rulesoftlte
House’ have been adopted. which will tend very
muclt to facilitate business in that body. The
first puts a quietus upon the protracted sittings
in Committee oftlte Whole. frequently resorted
to by. refractory mirtorities. All attempts to
worry out a tnajority by talking against time,
will now prove unavailing as the amendment
alluded to provides that the Committee of the
whole may be discharged from the consideration
of any subject which ltas been bcdbre tltem six
days, by a. sitnple vote of the majority.
The other amendment litnits each member
while in Committee of the Whole. to the space
of one hour. in which to deliver hitnself-—put-
ting an end to the practice so comtnon in mud-
ern legislation, of tedious and interminable
speech-miaking. often for the supply ofthe home
market. These measures evince a praiseworthy
disposition on the part ofthe majority to remove
every obstacle in the way ofa prompcdischarge
ofthe business ofthe session.
“Tun INDEPENDENT Ptm-unLtc.«tttt."—'I‘ltis
is the title a little four column sheet published
in thisltown by Joseph Dennis. No. 28-vol. I.
of which—dated Jan. 5. 18U3—wasput into our
hands at the dinner table on the 3.l inst. by a
gentleman who gave the,name of the paper as
a sentiment on that occasion.
The sheet evinces a decided party cast—-de- '
voted to the interests ofthe then existing (Jeffer-
son.) administration. and supporting with equal
zeal. the system of ethics and the political creed

In the proceedings of Congress of that day
we find, a resolution, unanimously agreed to.
reflecting upon the conduct of Spain in ittterfe-
ring with the free navigation of the Mississippi.
There does not appear a single line of edito-
rial matter, but the selections are madelwith
tact. The only matter of local interest we dis-
cover, is a list ofdead letters. signed “\Villiam
Lockwood, P. M.” and the following advertise-
ment :

have recently erected at their shop. a steam

Its novelty, therefore. and the beauty ofits me-

many of our citizens have looked in to witness
its oppcration. The cottrteous demeanor of
these gentlemen, and their industry. enterprise.

give them a strong claim upon public favor.

NEWSPAPER REPORTE RS.
Ma. Enrrott—One would suppose that wlto-
ever assumes the station ofa Reporter to a public
journal. should exhibit in his reports a due re-
gard for accuracy at honesty, whether lte pretend
to give a sketch ofa lyceum lecture or a 4th of
July oration. The public look for tru(h—nothing
but truth. artd moreover, the whole truth.
Suppose a case-—let it be the 4th of July.
Tlte day is to be celebrated by orations, address-
es. &.c. Among the proceedings. a Yuuth's
'I‘empera:tce,society holds a public meeting at
which the youth of neighboring towns are'iuvit-
ed. At the appointed hour the house is crowded
—“every seat is at once occupied, and hun-
dreds go away unable to gain admission.” «The
exercises pass in ‘a manner highly creditable
and satisfactory to all concerned.
. Now, sir, let us suppose that in the first paper
published after these occurrences should appear
an article purporting to come front one of the
audience. and professing to be "A short account
ofthe Temperance Celebration.” In glancing
over the article we take it to be a critical and
synoptical review ofthe proceedings-—a candid
statement of all the exercises, untinged by a
shade of partiality and unbiassed by prejudice.’
The artzcle in question gives a tolerable view
ofthe proceedings until it arrives at the first ad-
dress, which we will suppose to have been de-
livered by the president of the society. This
production the writer eulogiscs in terms of un-
qualified praise—e. g. '~‘ he showed in a most
happy manner," &c.—‘' he proceeded to prove
in a clear and concise manner”--“closed with an
appeal * * * ending the apeal with a beauti-
fut and afecting description,” dcc. &c.
Now this is all very well, and perfectly pro-
per; artd if. as we may naturally suppose. the
president of the youth's society was It young
man. it. would be even desirable, to notice
his address in, the terms we have quoted.
But, sir. suppose the reporter did not carry out
the plan with which lte commenced I \Ve have
seen that he gave a copious and flattering sy-
nopsis. alrnost amounting to panegyric, of the
address ofthe president. and comtnon courtesy
would seem to require that similar respect
should be paid to the orator of the day. But
instead ofthis. the reporter passes him by alto-
gether. or merely gives a remark or two second-
hand. because forsooth. “standing near the door
he was unable to hear” ! No matter how cred-
itable the oration might have been; no matter]
how ingenius and original in its conception; no
ntatter though the speaker left the impression
upon far the greater portion of his auditors that
he had acquitted hirnselfhonorably ofa difiicult
task—not a word of all this do we bear; but in
place ofit--“we understood it to be so and so.
Now. Mr editor, such It. case as this might
arise. at-. it if did, should we consider the conduct
ofsuch a reporter honorable or honest? should
we not rather feel that he had assumed a station
for which he was incapable?
But if, sir, in the case we have supposed,
from certain indications which could hardly be
mistaken, we should be led to conclude that the
honorable president. and the honest reporter
were one and the same person. should we not
lose tnuch ofthe respect we had before entertain-
ed for him‘! That these diflerent capacities
were acted in by the same person. appears sulfi-
ciently evident from the report itself. for as the
house was crowded to overflowing. no reporter
could have taken notes at the time. How,then,
could he furnish so copious an analysis ofthe ad-
dress ‘I It undoubtedly brings into view every to-
pic touched upon in the address, and in the order
in which they were brought forward, and gives
whole sentences in very nearly. it not precisely
the speaker's own words. and ending with a
stanza of poetry, so called, which, says the
writer, ' was "the last verse," and that be "re-
members.” No we very tnuch doubt if another
intlividual in that whole audience could recollect
that or any other stanza ofthe wh0le- Judging
frotn the verse given. it is not such ‘poetry as
could be easily remembered. especially from
one reading. a. that, too.’ in a rapid and declama-
tory manner; consequently our reporter must
I‘-
If such a case as we have attemptetl to de-
scribe should ever arise. either in our own vil-
lage. or any other place. we have no fear for the
result._ For truth will show itself. though “hid
in the bottom of a well.” True merit will be
discovered. and excellence find its reward. So
he who endeavors to appropriate to ltimselfthe
trteed of honor, small though it be, which justly
belongs to “another, will meet only with disap-
pointment and the contempt he deserves. _
Nosus.
Nonus writes with a confidence which indi-
cate a certain knowledge of facts, and for that
reason. after cutting down his communication
about one half. we have given it a place. We
however. cannot avoitl the conculusion that this
is less a cat in the heap business than his sus-
picions have led him to believe. This conclu-
sion is induced on the veracity ul certain gentle-
men whose testttnony to our knowledge has
never been disputed. If we have been deceived
we care not how well the lash is laid on. but if
Nouns has made a random sltot. we trust the
gentleman whom he has handled so unceremo-
niously. will avail hirnsell oftlte privilege which
we offer him of our columns. to hurl back upon
the originator, this foul calumny.
