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.

house to toastAis memory.
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

CLOSE OF TNOTIUMAIrfI FROONEMZOB.
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

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

The motion to adjourn was carried, and the Chief
Justice declared the Court adjourned until Friday. the

managers then retired.

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

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.

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. 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.

NAT/ONAL BANKMG LAW. -
Mr. SEnvit, of New York, introduced a bill amend
atory of the national banking law.
First. By repealing the clause which restricts the
aggregate circulation to -$300,000,000, and declaring
that there be no restrictions as to the number or ag
gregate capital of the banks to be formed, thus re
turning to the well-tried principles of the New York
free banking.
Second. 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.
