One oilier happy effect of those debates will be to Ltercst the masses in the poli tics of the country; induce. them 'to pay m n re attention to the tendency and bear ing of the national as Well as the special legislation of Congress, and result in a more gerieral diffusion of healthy piaci pies than now exists.
