EVENING BULLETIN. SATURnAY, APRIL 21, 1866 SENATORIAL MANNERS. We wish thattheUnited States Senate would show its-elf as strong and stead fast in maintaining its dignity as it has been in asserting its Constitutional pre rogatives. On several occasions, during the present session, the proprieties of the Senate Chamber have been grossly out raged by exhibitions of noisy drunken ness, on the part of Senators Saulsbury and McDougall. Saulsbury has been taken out of the Senate in a helpless state of intoxication, and McDougall has disgusted and shocked the country with a tirade of profanity and indecency which we had supposed would force a crisis upon the Senate and compel the 'expulsion of the offender. We are sadly disappointed in this expectation. Sauls bury, without even the formality of an apology, continues to talk his insolent treason almost unrebuked, and McDou gall, with a shallow and unmeaning apology, retains the seat which he so habitually disgraces. He tells the :Senate, in effect, that he went to bed 4irunk and disorderly, and awoke with a headache and sober, and his apology appears to have been accepted as amply zufficient. How much good is effected by such a course of mistaken leniency on the part of the Senate,is clearly demonstrated by what has followed. Any man, with a ray of proper feeling, would:have been 130 humiliated by the disgrace which he TOWER HALL. blB 'KA RRIFT STREET J. E. GOULD, Seventh and Chestnut.

Not so Saulsbury. The impunity with which he has inflicted his drunken . disloyalty upon the Senate, has onl y made him more arrogant, and yesterday he under took to repeat his sentiments of defiance to the authority of the United States. He was promptly met by Senator Clark, of New Hampshire, with a bold and stinging rebuke. Saulsbury attempted a blustering and abusive reply, but was met by Mr. Clark with such dignified firmness thatthe bullying tone of Sauls bury dwindled away , to a whimpering request to Mr. Clark to be more cautious in the future. How far Mr. Clark was alarmed by Saulabury's language may be inferred from his closing the discus sion by saying: "I have heard the Senator's remarks, and Ido not recede one jot or tittle from what I have said. I meant no disre spect to the Senator, but simply to re buke a spirit manifested here. If I have occasion to say again what Ihave mid, Ishall certainly say it." Will not the Senate assert its own proper dignity and rid itself of men like Saulsbury and McDougall, both of whom have so flagrantly violated every prin ciple of personal decency and so grossly dishonored the States which they nomi nally represent? RINGING THE STATE HOUSE BELL. A number of fire 'companies; through their delegated representatives; have pe titioned City Councils to have the State House bell struck for all fires that may occur, whether by day or by night. The reasons for the desired change are set out in full in the petition which was published in the local columns of the •BULLETII yesterday. There is but one reason among the whole which carries any substantial weight with it in our es timation. This reason is the alleged fact that an insufficient number of fire men are sometimes upon the ground at a conflagration. This is a matter of opinion and somewhat a question of taste, and a very large number of old firemen and the great mass of the citizens will agree with us that it more frequently happens that there are too many persons upon the fire ground than that there are too few. We know that the stopping of the ringing of the State House bell for fires between six o'clock A: M. and ten o'clock P. M. has contributed greatly to the preservation of good order in the city, and we have it upon the authority of those who are in a position to judge most correctly, that less loss by fire and water has been sustained during the last two years than if the State House bell bad been struck for all fires that took place, whether by night or by day. We trust that Councils will stand firm in this matter, and consult the public good rather than the desires of a few zealous firemen. • THE SOLDIER MESSENGERS. The Soldiers' Messenger Corps has made an excellent beginning, and as the community becomes better ac quainted with the working of the or ganization, it will meet with growing success. We have a suggestion to make which, if carried out, will greatly add to the efficiency of the Corps. It is that the Messengers be allowed the privilege of riding on the platforms of the street passenger cars when on duty. The loss of time incurred' in making their trips on foot will deprive them of many commissions, and as the police have al ways been allowed the privilege of using the cars without charge, we hope the railway companies will extend the same facility to the Soldiers' Messenger Corps, many of whose members are wounded men, and all of whom deserve all the aid and encouragement that can reasonably be afforded them.

The miser may gloat o'er his glittering store, and feel keen delight as he counta it all o'er, But I envy the bliss of the widow far more, As she sits at her Tea Table. Sipping her Tea. No king on his throne Is as happy as she. The Widow Ideate. as all do agree, 'Was a notable housewife, as ever you'll see. Though she gidn't tend Operas, Parties and Balls, And wear Gipsy Bonnets and Big Waterfalls, Still I think she was happier far than them all, AS she sat at ber Tea Table, Sipping her Tea, Sometimes she drank Sonchong, And Sometimes Behea. The Widow one day, as I have heard say, Was conning the papers, a very good way, When yon've eaten your breakfast, and Con% feel In dined, For physical labor, why then feed the mind. If yon don't, you will surely oe left far behind, 3n this wide awake age, when steam is the rage, Surely none but a laggard will ride In a stage. Thus reasoned the Dame As she poured out her Tea. And doubtless the reader With her will agree. Now between you and me, the Widow Macree, Was reading her paper, In good humored glee. Of the marriages, deaths, and thrisprirninal news, Of the thipwtecks at tea, and theSdeol the crews, And about the late murder, all this she'd peruse, And so after reeding each column adown, And gleaning therefrom all the news of the Town, elm espied the advertisement of J. Wad &Brown, The r eaters in Tea, at sts, Where aU the best grades may be had superfine. Here's a card about Tea, Quoit' • the Widow Mame, I'll read it sad tee. What its meaning may be.
