A Curious Fact.?The National Intelligencer, in remarking on tho fact of tho gradual chnngo of tho character of tho United States enate, from a mere privy council of the President to a deliberative bony, says, that in the first Congress, President Washington canio personally into tho senate, when tliey were engaged in executive session, and made his nominations himself. lie took tl e Vice-President's seat, and frequently addressed tho Scnat-J on the executive business they had la-fore them, and often exercised an influence, and alm?>st a control, that would bo considered highly improper in our days.? This practice, however, did not long conI tinue. XV The majority of the committee on the Liquor Law in the Vermont Legislature, have made a report infaror of it* re|?eal.
