Publication o. tie Edics of Congress We no
tice by the proceedings of Congress that the Hon.
Mr.. ASHLEY. Of Arkansas, Chairman OF the Judi.
ciary Committee in the Senate. has submitted u
motion ihquifins MID the eSptiehcy of reviving
the law authorizing tho printing of the puilic
Laws aud Resolves Of Congress, in the wspopers
Of the Several States and ,f,rriidries. The re.
peal of this law, under Mr. Tylcr's administration
was an act of great injustice 10 tho peobe of the
United States, inasmuch as 1t deprived them Of
the only facilities within their reach of becoming
acquainted with tho laws passed By their sersnnts
IN Congress. If we mistake hot, tho movement
originated with some of the prominent, Wing mem
bers who wanted to .'head" Capt. Tyler, IN every
thing involving public patronage, and in the zeal
with which this mischiovous nio!iyo was carried
dI!, the interest, Of the public were, IN this IN.
stance at least, entirely overlooked. 1t is time
This foolish piece of legislation was reversed
The aggregate COS, of publishing the laws through.
out The Union. is but mere trIile, while the pub.
lie benefits arising thorcIrom, would be Of tho
highest Impor ance.


in behalf Of the press and the people, we thank
Mr.. AsHtrY for moving in this matter, and trust
he will succeed in his usefdI Efforts 10 promote
"Ihe greatest good of the creates, ndmber."--
