mcmpse. On the Ist of April, 1764, during an eelipie of the sun, Spiletta, a celebrated mare of illustrious descent, gave birth, , in the Duke of Cumberland's stables in he Isle' of Dogs, te a little chestnut colt. t The eclipse being generally considered by thestudlmanager and the anxious grooms as havlng some znystal ons reference to the colt's future career, the Duke at once named the little chestnut stranger "Eclipse, —and as Eclipse he was bentitbrward known. He was of a light chestnut color , his o ff hind leg white from nearly the top of the shank to the foot; and he bad a white blaze from his forehead to his nose. His dam. Bpiletta,was a bay mare, bred by 81r Robert Eden and got by Regulus out of Mother Western. Though she only started once, and was then beaten by another child of Regulus, Spiletta was ofroyal origin and of desert blood. On her father's side she sprang ftern the Godolphin barb and Lister Turk; on her mother's side, from one of. Oliver Crom well's barb mares. Marske,the sire of Eclipse, was also of the noblest blood. He was de scended from Bartlett's Childers, and traced back to Lord Fairfax's Morocco barb. About the time of the Commonwealth, speed became the, great desideratum of the breeders, instead of bulk ; as armor bad dropped off the horse soldier, piece by, pima, the old Flemish war horse had become obsolete; and breeders,with an eye to the demands of the army, directed their attention more to fleetness. Marake only ran, about • six times, and in those six times was only thrice victorious. He was sold, on the Duke of Cumberland's death, for a very trifling sum, and was afterwards nur cbssed•by's Mr. Wildman for only twenty guineas, and to the infinite contentment of the seller. But when Eclipse became illus tricots, his father became illustrious too, and Was purchased by , the Earl of Abingdon for a thousand gbineas. The produce of this renowned horse, won in tWenty-two years, amounted to seventy-one thousand two bun dled and ftve pounds owten shilling, besides the Salisbury silver bl, the Epsom cup, twenty-eight hopheada of claret at Ne w market, the Ipswich gold cup, and the New- market whip. The Duke of Cumberland, the patron of Yigg and Broughton, the prize-fighters, and also a great friend of horse-racing, died, by no meant much regretted, in 1765, and, on his death, Eclipse was sold with the rest of the Stud. The unpretending colt, with the white' off bind leg and the long white blaze, was knocked down in Smithfield for seventy g.nineas. Mr. Wildman, the salesman, who kept a good stud of race - horses at ickle ham, near Dorking, and also took in horses to train, had expressed a wish to buy Eclipse; some groom or jockey, with an eye to the colt, so short in the forehand and so high in the hips, had, in fact, given a hint of his pro mise, and Wildman was anxious to carry him off. The ivory hammer had already fallen before the tardy buyer made his ap pearance. The purchaser of the chestnut colt ey,ed , him with scornful triumph; not that Eclipse was worth much, but then he had "nicked" that sharp fellow, Wildman, who always thought be was up to everything. Brit Wildman was Yorkshire too, and hard, very bard to get round. He took out his watch, and pronounced the recent sale il legal. The hour of sale that had been fixed in the advertisement had not yet arrived by several" minutes. The lot knocked down must be resold, or there would be pickings for the lawyers out of the matter. The auction eer' sulkily confesses the error; the sullen purchaser yields, too, perforce. The chest net' -yearling- is put up. again... Eventually Eblipse is knocked down, amid the amuse ment" of his friends, to Mr. Wildman, the acute, and the pertinacious, for seventy-five Elam- The Godolphin Arabian, sent as a present to Louis the Fourteenth, by the Emperor of Morocco, was so little thought of that it was sold to a man who drove it about Paris in a cart; and froth the cart this fallen monarch of thhdesert was taken by the English gentle man who bought it. in youth 'Eclipse was equally despised, and his genius as cruelly ignored. His temper was certainly bad; he bit, , and kicked, and jibbed, and shied, and struck out like a boxer with his fore legs. In, various other uncomfortable ways he tried to proclaim his irresistible courage,daring,speed and endurance. At one time, vexed and diatracted, Mr. Wildman thought it would be impossible to bring him to the post except as a gelding,his spirit was so fiery and unquench able. At last, in a rage, Wildman put him into the not very gentle hands of a poaching roughrider near Epsom, who rode him about all day from stable to stable, and at night took him to the cover-side. or made him wait while be smoked pheasants, or dragged stubbles for partridges. Even the steel joints and india rubber, muscles of Eclipse wearied of this ceaseless drudgery, and he grew quieter and more docile ; but still the animal's lion heart was ati large,and throbbed with such a full hot flood of • generous blood, that his spirit re mained unbroken, and his favorite jockeys, Fitzpatrick and Oakley, never attempted to hold him, but sat patient and wondering in • their saddles, flying through the air till the horse stopped, and the earthquake of cheer ing began. When Eclipse was four years old, Mr: 013.e11y, a well-known man on the turf, gave two hundred and fifty guineas for a half share in bitn,and soon after seven hundred and fifty for, the remainder. He ran the next year at Epsom. The Dennis O'Kelly who bought Eclipse was an Irish adventurer--some said a sedan chairman; When he suddenly became a sort of. Midas, at whose touch everything turned - -into gold, envy and cynicism wrote countless satires and lampoons.. upon him, attributing his wealth to every possible crime and base ness. lie seems to have been a rough,shrewd, reckless fellow, thoroughly conscious of the power of his wealth, and careless to conceal his trium. With an ph ignorant head, hut skilful at com binations and calculations, neverthe less, had his reverses; at, one period of his life, heggared at the green-cloth, he found his . way into the Fleet, and could not get easily out of it again, till his mistress lent him her last hundred' pounds, and with that he slowly won' pack the wandering guineas. Fortune Wsttnever tired of favoring the noisy Irish , raffn,,vrho yet failed to obtain the recognition of ,aociety, and could not succeed in getting admission into, the best clubs, social or sport ing. Being refused admittance into the Jockey Club, he could never run Eclipse for - an of the great Newmarket stakes,--a source of Anal mortification to the blustering :orar t l f Ilat;honeat or dishonest, thwarted by the illiateatheY or aided by rogues, O'Kelly did aid b es t 4 3 w steo . y friend, Fortune, by e shrewdness, sagacity, indefatigable industry, and perseverance. No tricks could battle him, no scheme blind his keen eyes. He had both the :rush .and the staying power of a good • hc*. 'hi knew_ what to " wait " on his ad fes, or when to spring on them and Toßilt-theM at the last length._, In. fact, on the turfliewas as invincible as Eclipse,his bread winner ;horse and man, nothing could • come near them. To prevent his jockey's ever be ing.' bought over, he always kept a favorite rider, at aW annual satarq. '' This Wafrwas ,pledged to ride for him, wheneyer ordered to do so, for any plate, match, or 9,1114100.0, i tut ‘with the , privilege at odd • *Bea of ,riding . for, any other person, if (Melly' had no horse entered for the same Wiien tint made this contract, and fixed on his jockey he , instantly acceded to the rider's terms, at ate offered to double them if the jockey'wolfid , also bind 'himself under a penalty never to ride for any of the blacklegs. The little man in boots, with 'perhls no very exalted idea of Ciptain 0' ellfs honor, asked, with `an ineontrollithle stare, whoa] he called blacklegs? The captain replied, with a string of sonorous Anglo-Iriab oaths. "0, by the powers, my dear, I'll soon make you understand whom I mean by the dirty blacklegs." With that preliminary assurance, the Captain named all the chief members of the Jockey Club of the day. Such was the revenge of the man on those who had 'shut their doors upon the owner of Eclipse. O'Kelly usually carried a heap of bank notes carelessly crumpled up in his waistcoat pockets. On one occasion, while he was standing at a hazard table at the Windsor races, a stealthy hand was seen by a spectator in the act of draw 4 ing out some notes from the Irish man's pocket. There was an instant alarm in the room, and Are delinquent was grappled by a dozen riAgh hands. Some persons were 'for pumping on the klepto maniac, others for hauling him at once before a magistrate; but O'Kelly had his own way of dealing with such offenders. He at once coolly seized the rascal by the collar and kicked him down stairs, saying : "'Tis sufficient punishment for the black guard to be deprived the pleasure of keeping company with gentlemen." The saddling bell that rang on the Ep trona Downs on the 3d of May,1769 (the ninth year of the reign of George the Third), was a knell sounding for the fortunes of all those unlucky men who had betted against O'Kelly's new five-year old. The bell, swaying in the little belfry, near the winning-post, was an nouncing, that May morning, only a small race; it was for a poor fifty pound for horses that had never won, thirty pound matches excepted. John Oakley appears with the light chestnut about. which O'Kelly is ao confident, and the booted squires do not see much in him. 'His fore quarters sink in his stride, there's something very odd about his withers; is very low in his fore-quarters; altogether a doubtful beast. "Captain"_ O'Kelly thinks otherwise. Yester day he took the odds to a large amount,— cocked bats full of guineas; to-day he is more violent and positive, bets even money, and five and six to four he would beat all the horses. Now be is called on to declare, for the jockeys are weighing, and the course is clearing, violently he shouts, in answer: "Eclipse first, and the rest nowhere." Mr. Forteaque's Gower, Mr. Castle's Cade, Mr. Jenning's Trial and Mr. Quick's Plume are the competitors of Eclipse. The light chestnut horse, with the white off' hind leg, Ukes its trial canter, and the turf echoes under its flashing heats. The man in scarlet rides forward; the horses get into line; the flag drops: they start. O'Kelly's eager eyes watch the circular green ribbon of turf with confident yet anxious glance. At the three-mile post the horses are all together ; the chestnut has not come forward yet : but though John Oakley pulls with all his might for the whole of the last mile, the lion of a horse distances all the four, and springs in almost before the rest have turned the cor ner. And now the crowd that closed in round the unruffled winner found all sorts of new beauties in him. A firkin of butter could rest on his 'withers. His shoulders, they now see, are exactly like those of a greyhound, aide at the upper part and nearly on a line with his back. Old men begin to think that he May sortie day, if kis speed goes on in creasing, equal FlyineChilders, who went nearlya mile a minute; whoran four miles t one furlong, and one .hundred and thirty-eight yards on the Beacon course in seven minutes and thirty seconds, and who was supposed to cover a space of twenty-five feet at every bound. The delighted jockey tells the ex ulting noisy owner that, from the first lift of the whip, Eclipse made running, and broke clean away from the ruck. That same month'Eclipse won a two-mile race at Ascot, and in June the King's plate at Winchester. The same Season he, bore away the King's Plate at Salisbury, and the City Silver Bowl; he also walked over for the King's Plate at • Canterbury, and won the King's Plate at Lewes and Lichfield. There was no compromise about his victories, he cut down the field at once, and shot in like a rifle bullet. In 1770, at Newmarket, Eclipse was again conqueror, beating Bucephalus and Pen sioner, and winning pint cups full of guineas for his old master, Mr. Wildman. When running for the King's Plate, the betting was ten to one on Eclipse. After the heat, large bets were made at six and seven to four that he would distance Pensioner, which he did with ease. At Guilford, in June of the same year, he carried off the King's Plate and the subscription purse of three hundred and nine teen pounds ten shillings. At starting; the betting was twenty to oue on him; and when running, a hundred to one. He sprang away at once, kept the lead, at two miles was a distance ahead, and ran in without re quiring whip or spur. He had already won for lucky O'Kelly a cartful of gold cups,silver plates, and purses of guineas., Sporting men were getting afraid of him. In September, 1770, at Lincoln, he walked over for the King's Plate. In October, O'Kellventered his champion for the Newmarket one hun dred and fifty guinea race, whichohe won. All the best six-year olds were then entered against him for the King's Plate. - O'Kelly offered to take ten to one. Bets were made to-"an enormous. amount. The Captain, being Called upon to declare, shouted his old cry, " Eclipse, and nothing else." Down went the flag, off went the enchanted horse at score, &ruble distanced the whole follow ing in a moment, and passed the winning post without turning a hair. No horse dare run against Eclipse again af ter that. Ile walked over the course for several King's Plates, and was then put out of training and reserved for breeding. Cap tain O'Kelly's fee at Clay Hill, near Epsom, was fifty . guineas. Eclipse was afterwards removes to O'Kelly's seat at Cannons, Mid dlesex. Eclipse's master used to declare that he had gained more than twenty-five thousand pounds by him; but whether he meant by breeding alone we do not know. This paragon of race horses died at Can nons on the 25th of February, 1.7f9; in the twenty-sixth year of his age, of co le and in flammation. The stomach and liver were found much diseased. The heart of the in-: domitable creature weighed fourteen pounds, and Vial de St. Bel, who opened him, at tributed his extraordinary and unflinching mirage - to - the size - and` - viger - of - this huge blood-primp. It is a singular fact that a small dark spot on the quarter of,Eclipse has been found in his descendants lathe fifth and sixth generations. At the interment' Of this king of horsed, cake and ale were given, as at a royal fune ral. The same respect had been shown to the memory of the great Godolphin Arabian. That excellent authority, the author of "Scot and Sebright," kindly calls our attention to the parallel• fact of the-funeral of. the illustai , ons descendant of, the ktodoliMht qbarb, Dr. Syntax, the sire, of Beesiceing.'

OKelly hired a poet to fling his-laSt de fiance on Eclipse's tomb at Jatgliflyer and his She, King Herod, whotie ancestor, the farnous Byerley Turk, bore King William through the battle of the illpyitte. The poet produced the following epitaph ,„ "Praise to departed worth iiinsMotts steed, Nor the famed Phenicus of rindaVa ode, O'er thee, Eclipse, possessed transcendent speed, When by a keen Newmarket jockey rode. "Though from the hoof of Pegasus arose Inspiring Hippocrene, a fount divine, A richer stream superior merit shows,— Thy matchless foot produced O'Kelly wine "True, o'er The tomb in which this favorite lies No vaunting boast appears of lineage good; Yet the turf rtgister's bright page defies The race of Herod to show better. blood." George the Fourth, always fond of racing, even after that disagreeable discussion which led to his retirement from the turf, mounted one of Eclipse's hoofs as a cup, and it was a challenge prize tor some years at Ascot. Herring published an engraving of his Eclipse. There was, and probitbly still is,• a painting of the long, low chestnut, with the low withers , at Stockton House, Wiltshire. It' is by Sartorius the elder, and represents the horse, mounted by Jack Oakley, going over the Beacon course s at Newmarket. He is going "the pace," with his head very low, his jockey is sittthg quite still in his saddle. Both Eclipse's celebrated jockeys died in dis tress. John Singleton, the first winner of the Doncaster St. Leger, ended in 1776 as a pauper in Chester workhouse, and Jack Oakley in a parish poorhouse near Park Lane. In 1861 there was much controversy in the sporting papers as to whether Mr. Gamgee or his son had or had not obtained from Mr. Bracy Clark, on the payment of one hun dred pounds, the skeleton of this famous horse. Many asserted that Eclipse was bur ied at Cannons, by his proprietor, Dennis O'Kelly. Others stated that the skeleton had ornamented, for the past sixty years, the Veterinary Museum of the Dublin Society. Jockeys are fond of relicts. They make garden chairs out of the bones of favorite racers;' they cut slippers b out of their skins. There are gold lockets now existing, in which are enclosed precious locks of Eclipse's red chestnut mane. The challenge whip 'at Newmar ket, the tradition goes, was made from Eclipse's tail, and so they say is the wrist-string. The hoofs were reverently pre served, and ono of them was mounted in sil ver, and, with a silver salver, was presented by William the Fourth in 1832, to be run for as a challenge prize at, the ensuing Ascot races. When Tattersall's used to be near St. George's Hospital, a picture of Eclipse was hung over the fire-place, above the race lists and the notices. It was the produc tion of Mr. Garrard. There is also another picture of him, with an inscription, which declares that "he was never flogged nor spurred," and which also states the fact, ex traordinary, if true, that "he was a roarer," perhaps from cold caught in his rough peach ing days. A few remarks on the introduction of Bar bary and Arabian horses into England may here not be irrelevant. The first Arabian horse of celebrity was bought. by James the First of a merchant for five hundred pounds. It did not succeed as a racer, and the breed for a time fell into disrepute in Great Britain. In Charles the First's reign a lighter and swifter horse began to be bred. Oliver Cromwell; a true country gen tleman at heart,and very fond of racing,hunt ing, and all active sports, kept a racing-stud. The manager of this establishment, Mr. Place, possessed the famous White Turk, whose descendants were valuable in improv ing the breed of English racers. Charles the Second, an excellent rider, had Several valuable mares sent him from our colony in Tangiers. The Barb mare was gives by the Emperor of Morocco to Lord Arlington, secretary to King Charles the Second. The Turk was brought into England by the Wire of Berwick, in the reign of James the Second. It was part of the Duke's spoil at the siege of Buda. The Selaby Turk was the property of Mr. Mar shall, the stud groom of King William, Queen Anne and George the First. After Queen Anne's time, many valuable Eastern stallions and mares were imported. The -Brown Arabian and the Golden Arabian were added to Lord Northumberland's stud about 1760. The Damascus Arabian arrived in York shire the same year. The Cullen Arabian was a somewhat early importation. Racers now cannot do what their predecessors did. They have neither the speed nor the staying power. That patriarch of the turf,Sir Charles Bunbury, who died in 1821, and whose horse, Diomed, won the first Derby stakes at Epsom in 1780, introduced the vicious custom of running horses at two years old, before their full strength had ripened. Lighter weights at once became necessary, and the horses, pre maturely enervated, left offspring inferior to themselves in speed and endurance. Unhappily one of the worst signs of our own time -is presented- in connection with horse-racing,—in itself an innocent, perhaps a usetul recreation. The vice of betting has been consolidated into a regular profession, preying on dupes in all ranks, from peers to apprentices. Ancestral domains, and the stolen contents of shop-tills, equally change hands through the agency of the turf. Clubs, banks and markets have been established for the convenience of the knaves, and the fools who bet. Their transactions are quoted with grim regularity, like the prices of the public funds; and they , have a special literature of their own, which,.from its success, proves the turf-gambling public to have enormously increased since the days of Eclipse.—Every Sat COAL.

SeMOW* Mr. Dmorethen proceeded with his argantent, and said he Was not unmindful of the high character of the Senator from Ohio, and did not forgot what he bad learned from his observations in the Senate for nearly twelve' ears of his 'just and generous nature. He acknowledged most cheerfully that that Senator was as much raised above the imperfections and frail ties of this Week, depraved, corrupt hunian nature as it was possible for ellytneininy e tocPer Senatorrressisi raised the tion order, that the was not confining iniseit within the Waits of debate. e The Curse Juseece said be was greatly emberressed nn attempting, to ascertain the precise scope of debate obe indulged in, and therefore he was not prepared to say that the Senator Irom Connecticut was out of Mr. Throw continued his remarks, and said he did not euppose that in disavowing any personal objection to the Senator from Ohio, he was infringing the rules of debate. If an advantage or profit was to accrue to that•honorable Smatter from the trial, what Was it? Whams the nature of his interest?' The Senator from Massachusetts (Mr. Sumner) bad spoken of it as a matter of trifling consequence, but it was nothing less than the high office of Precedent of the Unit ed States. It was the highest object of human ambition in this country, and, perhaps, in the world. Mr. fkrawzlVr, of Nevado, called the Senator from Connecticut to order. He was discussing the main question, not the question of order. The Caw Justice remarked that he had already said it was very difficult to determine the precise limits of debate on the point of order takn o bje c t io n e Senator from Michigan. The Ware of the taken by the Senator from Indiana (Kr. Hendricks), and the validity of that objection must necessarily become the subject of debate; and be was unable to pronounce the Senator from Connecticut out of order. Mr. "Dixon resumed his speech. He ventured to say that with the meat temptation of the Presidency operating on the human 'mind, it would be nothing short of miraculous if the Senator from Ohio could be impartial. Nothing short of the power of Omnipo tence operating directly on the human heart could, under such circumstances, make any hnman being impartial. It might be said that the oblection made was not within tbe letter of the, Constitution. The Constitution did not, he sidmitted, expressly prohibit a member of the Senate acting AM presiding officer etc lempore from acting at a judge in a case of impuch ment. He was not prepared to'say that the Senator from Ohio came within the letter of the unreel pro hibition of the COnstitution; but he Wtenly tame within its spirit; and he assumed that the Senate was here to act, not on the letter, but on the ,spirit of the Constitution. There AS no prohibition in the Constitution that the prattling officerpro tempers on a trial of this Nina shall vote. The provision only was that the Vice- President of the United States shall not preside or give the casting vote ins trial of this kind. The rea son of that provision had already been explained. That reason was so manifest that it was not necessary to give it. It was that there was such a direct inter est irate Vice-President in the result of the trial, that it was deemed improper that he should. preside in acedping through which a vacancy might be ere . The trainers of the Constitution knew that the provisions of the common law prevented a man being .a judge in his own case. They knew that, as had been said by a learned commentator, the omnipotence of Parliament was limited in that respect, and that even that omnipotent body could not make a man a judge in his own case. If it would shock hamar:Mi— ll' it would violate every feeling of justice throughout the world--for the Vice•Prest to act, would it have lees effect in relation to the presiding officer pro tempore r No language could depict the impropriety of a Senator acting as a judge in a case which, in a certain event, was to place him in the Presidential chair. The President of the United States could not waive his objection in this case. It was a question in which the people of the United Stater were doubly interest ed, and it must be decided by the laws and Constitu tion, and by the great roles of right. The objection was not a_p_ had been argued. It was premature, for there wt e manypreliminary questions on which, if the Senator from Ohio were now sworn, he might proceed to note. If there was anything desirable in a trial it was that, in the first place, it should be im partially just, and that, in the second place, it must appear to the public mind that it was impartially just. If the Senate were to decide that the Senator from •Ohlo, who was to be benefited by the deposition of the President, could take part in.his trial, there would certainly be some doubt entertained in the pubiie mind of the fairness of the trial. It history should have to record that tact, the isympa _aim of the civil ized world would be with the•ftued President. Mr. ilsrunumts said that in making the objection, he did not question the general proposition of the right of the Senetorfroin Ohio to vote on all proper Auestions, but he claimed that by his own acts he had accepted a position which disquilida him from sit lt wee, therefore, his own act, and not the act of the Senate, that. disqualified him. This question necessa rily arose often in the organization of bodies composed -of many members. It otten occurred in the House of .RepresaataHrers, when members were - called- to be sworn, and it had necessarily to be decided before theranizatiort was complete . Th e question must, therefore, be decided here. Substantially this body was a Court. It had not to consider legislative ques tions at all. The judgment of each Senator was con trolled altogether by questions of law and fact, and the body, was, thmelore, in its very essence and nature, a judicial body. The Senate ceased to be a body for the consideration of legislative guestions,and became a body for the consideration of judicial ques tions. • The first step in passing from the one charactifto the other character was the appearance of the Chief Justice of the United States in the chair. The next ^ step was that tenators should take the oath that as judges they would be fair and just, and the question arose in this stage as to the competency of a certain Senator. The question was whether the Senator from 'Ohio could participate in the trial. He (Mr. Hen dricks) had held in the Stockton cue that a Senator might vote on a question where he had an interest, but - the Senate had decided differently, and he held to the decision of the Senate. He was somewhat surprised to hear the Senator from Musachusetta (Mr. Sumner) argue now in the contrary view. He believed that the objection was made at the proper time, but as some of the Senators who had sustained the general objection, particularly the Senator from Delaware (Mr. Bayard), seemed to intimate that the objection might be reserved and made at another time, he would withdraw it. Mr. Hendricks having thus withdrawn his objection. the motion offered by Senator Johnson and the ques tion of order submitted by Senator Howard fell to the ground. Senator Wade thereupon came forward and took the .oath, administered by the Chief Justice. The other Senators who had not already been sworn were called on one by one, and took the oath, and then the CHIEF' Je-STICS, rising, said : "All the Senators having taken the oath replied - by the Constitution, the Court is now organized for the purpose of proceeding with the trial of the impeachment of Andrew Johnson. The sergeant-at-Arms will make proclamation." The Sergeant-at-Anne then made the formal proc lamation in these words: • *Hear ye! Hear yet Hear ye! All persons are commanded to keep silence on pain of Imprisonment, while the Senate of the United States is sitting for the trial of articles of impeach. meat againet Andrew Johnson, President of the United States." Mr. Howenn—l submit the following order: Ordered, That the Secretary of the Senate inform the managers of the House of Representatives that the Senate is now organized. The Cum demon—Before submitting that h qd utyues tion to the Senate the . Chief Justice thinks it is to submit to the Senate the rules of procedure. In the judgment of the Chief Justice the Senate is now organized us distinct body from the Senate,. sitting in its legislative capacity. It peeler:ma, a distinct function; the members are under a different oath, and the presiding officer is not the President pro tempore, but the Chief Justice of the United States. Under these circumstances the Chair conceives that rules adopted by the Senate, in its legislative capacity, are not rides for the government of the Senate sitting for the trial of an impeachment, unless they be also Adopted by that body. in this judgment of the Chair, if it be erroneous, he -desires to be coirected by the judgment of the Court -or the Senate, sitting for the trial of the impeachment •of the President--Which in his judgment are synony mous terms--and therefore if Se n ateermitted to do so, he will take the sense of the upon this ques tion, whether the rules adopted on the 2d of March shall be considered as the rules of proceedinge in this dies of "Question," "Question." The CHIEF JUSTICE put the question. There was but one faint No; apparently on the 'Democratic side. The Caw Jusrma--The ayes have it, by the sound, 'The rules will be considered as the rules of this body. •To Mr. Howard--Will the Seadel- - --Ee the goodness to repeat ids motion? Mr. Flows= repeated 1216 mot ion, given above, which was put, and declared adopted. After a few minutes delay, at a quarter before three o'clock, the dome were thrown open. The Sergeant at-Arms announced, "The Managers of Impeachment ,on the part of the House of ItepresentativeW and the ~ I danagers entered, and proceeded up• the aisle, arm in erm.-Xsagri.

The amendment would restore the rule to its origi nal form before amendment ,Mr. Anthony did net desire to press his amendment immediately, and at his suggestion it was laid on the ,table. Mr. Ifowannthen moved that the Court adjourn to 'the time at which the summons was made returnable, Friday, the 18th inst. Mr. MUMMER Before that motion is put I should like to ask my friend, the Senator from tthode Island, (Mr. Anthony,) whether, under the rule now adopted, he regards that as debatable? Mr. ANTHONY—No. Mr. Busmen—lf by these rules it is provided as fol kiwis: All the orders and decisions shall be made and had by yeas and nays, which obeli be entered on the record without debate, except when the doors shall be closed for discussion. Mr. Asernorry—l have not read the rules in refer ence to the question, and I do not desire to press the motion at present. Conn, JIMITIOS —There is nothing for the Senate but the motion to adjourn. The motion to adjourn was carried, and the Chief Justice declared the Court adjourned until Friday. the lath inst., at one o'clock, and vacated the chair. The managers then retired. trENATZ 11801111ZO ITS SESSION. The President pro tern. having resumed the chair, On motion of Mr.JotmSox, of Maryland, the Senate provided for an adjournment to Monday next. On motion of Mr. larrltOrtr. the order offered by him,mtviding for the issue of tickets to the galleries, &c., during the trial, was referred to the committee appointed to prepare rules for the Senate sitting on the question of impeachment. Mr. ii•rzwAur, df Nevada, made an unsuccessful endeavor to call up the bill to establish a School of Mines. PAYMASTERS' ACCOUNTS., *tr. Wri-sort, of Massachusetts, again called up the bill to facilitate the payment of paymasters' accounts, which was amended by striking out the requirement of the approval of the Secretary of War, and confining its application to the period prior to the passage of the act, with other verbal amendments. It was then passed. On motion of Mr. Seeman, of Ohio. at 4:20 o'clock the Senate went into Executive session, Mr. Sumner protesting against it in consonance with the ground heretofore taken by him against Executive recogni tion, and, after a short Executive session, adjourned.

Mr. Bream, of Maine, suggested that it be under stood that the session to-morrow be for debate only. Several gentlemen on both sides desired to make speeches. - To this proposition the House unanimously as sented. • Ste44lAN CLAMS. Mr. Lariats moved to reconsider the vote on the passage and the papers in the case of Mr. Perkins, who makes a claim against the Russian government which he desires shall be deducted from the sum pro posed to be paid for the purchase of Alaska. —A. -short. ciaata ensued,,during_ which Mr. Pattiz said he was in favor of the printing, but was opposed to an appropriation for the purchase of Alaska. Ma d, iLD thought the papers ought not to be printe unless the Committee on Foreign Affairs shall, after an examination of them, think it to be necessary. It was doubtful whether an appropriation f r the purchase of Alaska would be made. - Mr. ORTII, as a 'member of the Committee on For eign Affairs, said the motion to refer was not ac companied by one to print . The motion of Mr. Latin was agreed to. So the documents will not be printed. NEW YORK POSTOPTICZ. On motion of Mr. Vas NV rce, it was resolved that the secretary of the Treasury be directed to have de tailed estimates of the proposed Postoffice and Court boute buildings in the Oity - of New York ,-- according - to the plans presented by the commission to procure said plans, and to report at the earliest moment With any recommendations. and report in regard to the ma terial and mode of construction he may deem proper. POLITICAL DISABILITIES. Mr. Dawns, of Massachusetts, from the Committee of Elections, repotted a bill prescribing an oath of office for those from whom political disabilities have been removed. This bill met the entire ap probation of the Committee - on Rlections , and sim ilar to tbat'agresd upon by the. Reconstruction Com. mittee. It was now reported under the instructions given by the House yesterday. Mr. Bnowes—Does the gentleman propose to put this bill through to-day without discussion? Mr.Davrts--I thought that gentleman had suf ficiently 'Dreamed the subject yesterday, and there fore perfectly understood it. Mr. Bnooke.-We yesterday did not examine it all. The gentleman made a mistake in saying that the Reconstruction Committee, of which I am a member, agreed to this bill. Mr. Dawns obtained the bill from a member of the Committee on Reconstruction which was waiting for an opportunity to report. If the gentleman had rend the bill he would not see any objection to it. Mr. COOK said that the Chairman of the committee was referring to one bill, and the gentleman from New York to another. The bill was read, as follows: heft enacted, etc., That whenever any person who has participated in the late rebellion, and all legal dis abilities arising therefrom have been removed by act of Congress by a vote of two• thirds of each house. has been elected to or appointed to an office or place of trust, in or under the government of the United Stater, he ghat, before entering upon the duties there of, take and subscribe to the following oath or affirma tion: I, A. B. ,do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will support and defend the Constitution fi e the United States against all enemies, foreign and diimeatic; that , I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation er 'purpose of evasion, and that I will well, and faithfully discharge the dirtiest of the office of which lam about to enter. So help me God. Mr. 'Snooks proposed to strike out the words "twe thirds," and insert the word "majority." • - Mr. DAWES said he could hardly agree to this. •• , Mr. Mtrnonst asked that an amendment be made so,, ea to extend the provisions of the bill to John Young Brown, elected a member of Congress from Kentucky. . - • , Mr. DAWES replied that each an amendment would not be germane to this bill; nobody's name was men tioned, and It was -as applicable to one as to an other. The bill was general in its character. He moved the previous question, which was seconded, andunder its operation the bill was passed, the House having refused to order the yeas and nays.CASE OA BuTLnn.: , , Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, next up bill to remove the political disabilities fromcalled the Roderick B. Butler, of Tennessee. Mr. BUOOKEI, of New York, said he wanted to vote to remove the disabilities, but before doing so he wanted to understand the case. All the facts have not been printed, important testimony having been omit led. . M _r. Dawns explained that the gentleman who ap peared to prosecute the mat ter before the committee arranged the documents as he desired, and asked whether the gentlernan referred to the bridge burn ing? ' • • Mr. Bnooks replied, be did. The speech which Mr. Butler made in the Tennessee rebel Legislature was omitted from the printed book. The bridge was burned by soldiers of the United States some of whom were arrested and punished. Mr. Butler de. nounced the burning in the strongest terms,' and de, claredthat he had always oppoaed.the entrance of the Lincoln-troops-into-Tennessee, and believed that the majority of the people of that State were also op posed to it. i ,• Mr. Datvan explained that the bridge was not earned by order of.the government of the Ul nited States, lint by Union men, in aid, of the cause; and fifteen or so of Mr. Butier'e constituents were brought to Nashville charged with the offense •• Intense excitement wes occasioned. When Mr. Butler left his place in the Legislature to Interfere in their behalf, and tried is save them, the, enraged crowd cried_out, "There is • another L--•-• bridge burner." He was taken aside and counselled to do something to save -his life. In order to do so he openly declared tbrat he never ap proved of this bridge burning, • Mr. Bin:kiwi referred to litir - fact that-bilfilill sane of 'the members of the rebel Legislature of Tennessee presented Mr. Butler with a sword, which Mr. Butler promised to wield in def_enst of the State. , . Mr. DA.Wits s aid that Mr. Butler never pu-hie name to ' the - letter ' s of acceptance. It. was Ithere by his rebereolleagues in the Legislature. • Mr, , Buomitstald the gentleman was perletmlng the • • , 'rat D.ILY EVEN 146 i3IiLLETOT.-4FIALADELPRIA; . p.....,a , t' ,vyhleh , ehad been den. ti t Of performing, namely, defending,'bets. The gentleman had observed that Mr. Butler . uld not take the oath trathfuljy; he (Mr. Brooks) wa . quite sure of that.- bat Mr. Butler did take the oat t presented by the Legislature of Tennes see, "that h t bad never voluntarily borne arms against the United •tates. nor at any time given aid, counte nance or en •uragement to Its enemies, and never songht °Me t, civil or military, under the authority or pretended authority, of the so-called Confederate States," etc.: Mr. Dewits replied this bill relieved this disabili. Mr.:Butler did take the oath referred to. The words. "with inten and desire to aid the rebellion," governed him in doingso, because he did not desire to aid the rebellion; h felt, no conitelentions scruples in being willing to tote the Congressional test oath, which, however, the Committee on Elections said ho could not take. i t , ho thought ho was leading the House to coat a vote for ono who watt not a true man, he would feel: thatehe Was not discharging his duty. tic be lievedlthat tiuch men as Gantt, Holden, and Patton, who went li to the rebellion for a short time, and be 'loved in itj but who renounced their error. should be drawn by the strongest possible cords to the Support of this government. ' The minds and influence of such men were abets lately essential to a - healthy reconstruction of the Southern 8 tes. Without this' influence, it would be a long ti e before the mass of the people would come up to the support of the government. He would rather trust Longstreet, who was formerly , an open foe, than the man who saved his neck by lighting' i neither for 'he rebellion nor the Union. Mr. Brooks said the gentleman was making an ex cellent speech, but he did not exactly understand his metaphysics and law. Mr. Dewits admitted that his metaphysics never was worth anything, but he asked the gentleman to take his law. Mr. Buomts was understood to say that the gentle man's logic was not in accordance with Bailey, but rather in accordance with Mrs. Ople's work, not teaching lying but. showing how dodging may be professionally conducted. •Mr. DAwns disavowed anything' like tergiversation on the part of members of the Committee on Elec tions. Mr. Perin saidmery_single witness brought by the contestant to prevent Mr. Butler from taking his seat, with one exception. believed Mr. Butler to be a true Union man during the rebellion, yet the record 'of his votes in the rebel Legislature of Tennessee was as bad as it could be. It Mr. Butler had faced the bul lets of the enemy since he was a member of that Legislature he would vote to relieve him, but his reading of testimony did not show that he ever faced the billete,of the enemy, or ever heard the enemy's cannon on a single field. Mr. Hommel. of Illinois, knew that there was an umbrella there large enough to thield all the rebels that ever fought - against us. lie preferred to take the bold man who takes ground against us rather than the mis erable sneak who went into the Legislature of Tennes see as a Union man, and there take an oath to support the Confederacy, for the purpose of destroying our government At this point in the proceedings the Impeachment Managers appeared before the House, announcing that the Senate had organized the court, and that the Sen ate would order process to issue against the President to appear before the court, returnable on the 15th instant. Mr. Dewis, in reply, said that Mr. Batter had as honorable a military record as any one for the time he served, but he did not base his support on Mr. Butler's military record, but ass man . e fter further proceedings the House passed the bill removing the political disabilities from Mr. Butler, on the basis that he performed honorable military ser vice in the Army of the United States from September, 1863, to May, 1866.

Repealing the thirty-first section, which compels the banks to keep a reserve in legal-tender notes equal to fifteen per cent., and in certain cities to twenty-five per cent. of their circulation and deposits, useless and unnecessary loss of interest, and no practical security to the blllholders or depositors. Third. Provides for the redemption of their notes in New York City by all the banks at par, which is in effect equivalent to returning to specie payments. Fourth. Authorizes a new loan, payable, principal and interest, in gold coin at the present weight and standard, for the purpose of redeeming the legal•ten der notes in excess of $lOO,OOO, 000. When reduced to that sum, the remainder to be receivable for custom duties, to be payable in coin, and to be reissued to creditors of . the government who may desire them, so that the limit of $lOO,OOO, 000 shall not be exceeded. The bill was referred to the Committee on Banks and Banking. The House, at 4 o'clock, adjourned. BOARD OF TRADE. J. C. GRU. E. A. BOODER,S lAmyrimy ConnurrEe. G. L.
