Try this:
on the Console app go to the menu "File" -> "New System Log Query" — (alt-cmd-N shortcut) and add a condition akin to:
[Facility] [is equal to] com.apple.console
I'm not sure if this what you're after, but this should be the same as executing "syslog -C" in the terminal, but it's more useful to have this info in the console.
