The pnvctlce^f pairing off,*sU is jculled,
lias got to bo one of the established customs
of Congress. Op overy test vote we always
find n large number of abnet.tees^and heard
it explained (bat th*y' hnvfc paired off with
each other. Almost every day, in the course of
Uaa.ordinacy business of the House of Representatives,
some members being present declines
to vote ou aquation, directly or remotely
political,en the ground that ho has paired
on ?vii?i aUtiu member.^ Hs Ijiu
promised somo political opponent, who has
gone away, not to vote on any party questions
during bis absence. When a member
wants to leave Washington for business or
pleasure, be httuts up a man on tho other side
to keep Lie-company. If be cannotftied one
willing to leave, he exacts a pledgerrom
some good nattired party opponent to look on '
and say nothing till he coined back.
This ik a very easy way of shrikinMuty,
but it is all wrong. Occasionally, on u particular
vote of greate importance, where one
vote is of great public interest, a member,
whose absence is made necessary by critical
circumstances, may be indulged by llio, pairing
off" with liitn, for that occasion, of an
opposing voter. Sitch cases should bo rare
and exceptonal; they seem to have become
the rule. Seven or eight are annouueed in
a single day ; and wo have heard of a do/,
eu quitting Washingtou. for a week or two
at a tithe, on occasions of mere pleasure,
while a corresjronding number remain, but agree
not to vote. An Ohio man runs over
on a frolic to Lake Erie, and thinks lie preforms
*ali his duties to the public, if he has
got some Representative from Missouri or
Georgia to sit mum till he conies back.?
This may, be good for party discipline on
bolli sides, but it i.? certainly not good for
the general, interest of the constituency of
either, and shows a very loose idea of llie
duties of a Representative.
The theory, at least, of representation, recognises.,
a, great-many duties besides those
owed t<Vtpo]i{jfal paity, and does not treat
an abandonment of them as excusable when
tKo PvitrnnpiMt ftf nni l tr nrn hi mim<1o/1 fj\i< >
This way of "pairing ofl" on general political
grounds assumes, too, as a recognised
fact, that measures as well as men in Congress
are arranged and decided purely on
partly grounds; that debate is not expected
to effect results, or any reasoning or proofs
to change a predetermined opinion. In a
contested election, as on an nllirtnanco of a j
principle or a dogma ; in the conclusions of j
a report upon facta, as ou the denunciation i
of a party or an opponent, the liues are j
drawn, and the rote is declared, pro and
eon, by the pairing ofl' before the subject is
examined at all. The member for Massachusetts
goes home willing to forego his
vote for Uoeder, because so meinember from
"Georgia has agreed not to vote for Whitfield,
alid all the time neither has examined
the question, certainly neither has listened
to (h# argument on either side!
Now this is an evil, and the sign of a
veiy.bad state of public morals, when the
sole-duty which the Ilepreseutative recog- I
nises is that which he owes to parly, and I
the duty is in submitting his conscience and I
his judgment blindly to its will. There is
little to prefer between the practice of "pairing
off" and the system of the British House
of Lords in allowing members to vote by
proxy. )
"Pairing off is growing to lie an abuse
in our system, and we hope to see more cf- i
forts made, or some rules adopted, to cheek j
it.
Mortality Among Hogs.?The farmers;
on the Big Miami, from New Baltimore to:
Venice, Ohio, arc losing nearly all their hogs
hv a severe epidemic, which carries off 901
out of every 100 attacked, w ithin two hours]
after the symptoms arc manifested. The.
Cincinnati G'a&cttc says:
The. fipjnyia call the disease cholera ; the |
fpaeins and other symptoms exhibit similar
evidences of congestion to those manifested
by human beings seized with that fatal dis
order.. A C. 1L (.one, Esq., has lost 300
hog*, and JU B. Chukson, foq., over 200;
neighboring farmers have lost in proportion.
These were lively, healthy hogs, not still fed.1
A p'snitc prevails among the hog feeders of ;
the jibove disliict, and they are selling off as 1
hist as diey can.
A S w Cent.?Everybody will be glad
to learn that a new cent is to he coined.?
Theold copper head, which had so long
represented the smallest fractional division
of our decimal money in use, is too cumbrous
and large for the little value it represents,
and the substitution for it of a new
coiri^ Warily distinguishable from all others
iu circulation, wiH bo considered by all a l
great improvement. It is therefore proposed
by tho Directors of the Mint, that the
new cent shall be eighty-eight parts copper
and twelve parts nickel. This will make a
coin of a dark reddish color. It is to weigh
72 grains,'le&j than half the present cent,
which is 1*79 gains.?Philadei/miu Sun.

The papers aru quoting with surprise the
statement that a large number of the life*
* jverservers oil board the Northern Indiana
e were rendered useless from having been
|. perforated by pins. This is a fact, and
the same has been true in the case of every
steamer lost on the lakes, since the burning
of the Erie. Captain Titus informs us that
n those of the Oritihh were nearly all so ruin*
11 cd by the ignorance and carelessness of the
r- lady passengers on l*>ard, and we have frcquently
heard from steamboat j?eoplo that
nothing is more common than to find that
the inflated life-preservers in the state rooms
have been used as pincushions. One trip
e of the steamer carrying them is generally
o I sufficient to complete the destruction of thej
r greater portion of ell on board, as one pinhole
