lIBAVARNT THE CARIcATUnIST. One of his
friends contributes to the Paris preas some bio
graphical notes, revealing a new side of this won
ilarful delineator of Paris and London character:
"One day Oavarni took an avertion to draw
ing. Durirg the past ififteen.yearehe has done
nothing but pursue mathematleal truths, and he
bay left very complete works on this subject.
The Academy of Sciences several times accepted
and approved his researches, and among others
his new Theory of Sinus'. He lived out of so
ciety, in absolute' solitude; it was very rare a
/friend came to divert his attention from his
studies. He was self-sufficient, for he studied
incessantly. He lived as little as possible. He
had suppressed every effort and every spontane
ous movementexcept those of reasoning and in
tellect,and bad become enamored with boundless
passion for indisputable truth—mathematical
truth. After having been a poet and and an
artist, he came to feel something like contempt
for the plastic arts,
p w
rovhich call imagination to
their assistance andprovide it with a theme. He
bad become a pure spirit. Be was never hungry,
never thirsty, never sleepy. Ile had no desires
whatsoever; he was indifferent to everything on,
earth. Ho saw nobody, not even the dearest
friends; the sight of his son alone was his sole
earthly tie, and it was his son who tried to allure
bins from those mathematical studies which he
pursued with a sort of intoxication. He scarcely
every ate or slept, and remained plunged
in a state of somnambtilism. of the most
wonderful lucidity. Hie ••faculties of rad%
eination had become so powerful, so full of mar
row,, were raised to so high a, degree that it was
necessary in talking to him to be on one's guard,
as if one were in the presence of the Areopagus
or board of eaaminere, and despite hie exquisite
courtesy, Ms infinite gentleness. and the charm
ing unction with which hegreeted one, one.could
ni
nothilp-soewhat trembling in his presence.
But:this charmerat once gave one confidence.
The:llree time he received me he kept my hand
with paternal affection for along time in his, and
he Said: 'I have been in love with yon.this many a
day.' • When this colossal Gavami (whom Balzac
considered Ms peer) said that to a young man
most conscious of his humility, the latter
felt rewarded for all his efforts to write. *ell. It
was. evidently by accident he was familiar with

spread, this Parisian note which we still Pursue

but , mathematics. Once at London,. where he
went to study the "English at Home" he spent

al:styes were swollen. His face was changed.
Persons occasionally entered his room. The
eliember-maida moved about him; he paid no at
tentlein to what they eghl. They gave him a
bowl of soup, which ho took mechanically, and
again bent over the problem he was solving. His
eyes refused to recognize those ho knew moat
intimately; they retained, as it were,
the dusky envelope of the mystery he
would penetrate. It was in his house at 'Au
teuil, recently destroyed, this passion, destined
to be fatal to him, began to invade him. He was
then fond of flowers and other plants, and his
garden was celebrated. He was embarrassed to
procure water for it. He planned a windmill
which gave him the requited supply. lie had
been a mechanician, and had always been fond
of such studies. He first took up manuals, next
elementary treatises,. and by degrees he rose to
the higher mathematics, to problems of dynamics .
and statics. He continued to draw, but as artists
are accustomed to sketch drolleries on the margin
of their:drawings, he propounded equations in his
delicate and coquettish writing. Drawing soon
became insupportable to him; he drew solely
because he was obliged to support him
self and to fulfil hie engagements. After 1850 in
ventions. mathematical problems, and researches
became hie real and sole preoccupation. Occa
sionally the necessities of life obliged him to go
out to see a publisher, or notary, or a business
man; it was torture to him. He remained once
(although he was in good health, was uncom
plaining and relatively happy) for eight months
without putting his foot in the street. He
became astonishingly negligent about every
thing; all his life was given to things ideal.'

ILtb CONGRESS.—SECOND SESSION.
CLOSE OF TESTERDAVS PROCEEDINOS
House of Representatives.
After the members returned to the Rouse, Mr.
Btu. introduced a bill auttiorizing_tk Mannfacturers'
National Bank, of Now York, to af7sge its locatioa.
Wien ed to the (Ximmittee on Banking and Currency.
Mr. (Mom. - presented the memorial of- the Board
of Trade of Philadelphia, urging the reduction of the
tax on*hirky to fifty cents per gallon, and suggest
ir,g that the tax upon tobacco in its varioru3 forms be
levied upon the plant.
Mr. Roan introduced ablll to amend the , sixth sec
tion of the act of July 4, 1864. on the subject of pen
sions, so as to authorize the pensions granted in cer
tain eases to date from the date of discharge or death
et the soldier. Referred to the Committee on Pen-
Mons.
Mr. Commas asked and obtained unanimous con.
sent to introduce a bill making a grant of land to
Ilinneso , a, to aid in the construction of a railroad
from Taylor's Falls, by way of St. Cloud, to the west
ern boundary of the State. Referred to the Commit-
tee on Public Lands.
The SPEAKER said that before the House proceeded
to the Senate to-day, the gentleman from Masschu
setts (Mr. Dawes), offered a resolution instructing the
select committee appointed this morning to investi
gate certain charges made by Mr. Brooks
against Mr. Butler. Was the House now ready to
consider the resolution? If there was no objection,
the gentleman from New York (Mr. Brooks) might
state briefly the reasons why he objected to the con
sideration of the resolution.
Mr. Bnooirs desired, in connection with the propo
sition, to have another allegation in the debate of
Friday investigated. For among other charges against
him by the gentleman from Massachusetts (Mr. lint
ler) was one involving the question of veracity be
tween himself and that gentleman. The gentleman
had said that some time ago there was a case where
one Clarke sued a fellow by the name of Brooks for
part ownership in the New York Express. and there
was a diffitulty between Erastus Brooks and the other
partner abou a division of the spoils. They brought
him (Butler be case, and showed him that thetwo
Brooks had ft bbed Clarke. He (Butler) said he did
not love the firm, and ho would have nothing to do
with it. It was a nasty case and not so fertile as
guano. He saw the case in court and the Brooks
beaten.
Mr. Brooks, in reply to the above, read a letter ad
dressed to the Hon. Erastus Brooks, as follows:
"Drat BUN In regaid to the Express suit, alluded
to by General Butler on Friday last, allow me to say
that it was never offered to him by me, directly or in
directly, and that I never beard his name connected
with it until Saturday last, on reading Ws debate of
the day before. the entire statement has not the
shadow of truth to rest upon. Yours, - truly,
"d. T. CLARKE."
Mr. Brooks said thet Mr. Clarke, the plaintiff is
the Biel - against him, is one of the proprietors of the
paper Tribune , and the moriey editor of that
That gentleman had sent to him a telegram,
namely:
"Butler's story . about the Express suit has not a
shadow of truth in it. Was never offered by me to
him."
Mr. Brooks remarked he wanted to be investigated
the question of veracity, which interested the gentle
man from Massachusetts (Mr. Dawes), in the matter
of only 560,000, a comparatively small sum. He should
insist on an investigation as to character. lie could
not understand the logical distinction in his mind in
demanding an investigation now, when the other day,
on a gut etion involving the character of his colleague
,(Mr. Butler) and his assertions in the case of im
peachment, tie (Mr. Dawes) voted "no" to appoint a
cowl. Mee to investigate the , Alta Vela controversy,
involving ain Ilion of dollars. Why the gentleman
was so much interested in the $61,000 matter it was
not within his power to determine. If the matter of
gold was to be investigated, it was necessary to follow
it up with an investigation of the whole New Orleans
retina y eepirinseni.
The beret:en said the question was: - `Will the
House now consent to consider the resolution?"
Mr. DAWES retureked that he offered the resolution
at the requt it of We colleague (Mr. Butler), on whose
character fit it tegrtty the remarks of the gentleman
from New Yore (Mr. Brooke) reflected. It was for
the House to say when a charge was made by a mem
ber on a fellow member, and tie asked for au investi
gation of the truth 01 the charges, whether they would
grant .t or not Ifie repeated that he offered the resolu
tion at. the rt quest of his colleague. and not because
hp or hie colleague bt lived there was ground for the
charge euthrient for investigation.
Mr. Fifdernee desired live minutes to make some
suggestions belore the House should determine to act
upon the resolution. Ile asked far that mach time.
Mr. BENJAMIN ohjecxed •
A Wet me ws,..: w as ta ceived from the President,
and reed, in a loch hi transmitted to Congress the ac
e, mpanying documents, which he deemed propel to
state bud hei ti submitted to him relative to the pro
ceedings to which they refer The documents in
clude the coned Wane of the Slates of South Cmolina
and A rkansas. Referred to the Committee on Hecon
et ructien .
Mr thug its asked unanimous consent tooffer a res
olution which he considered necessary for a proper in
vestigation.
Mr. DAW/sS said that if the House should rule to
consider his re, elution he would have control of it.
The House agreed to consider Mr. Dawes' resolu
tion.
Mr. Dawns said lie would now listen to the read
ing of the gentleman's resolution, which was as fol
lows:
1?etolval, That the committee be directed to bring
before them the report of the special cornmiselonere,
Major-General W. F. Smith and James T. Brady,
Eeq., of New York, appointed by President Lincoln
and Secretary Stanton, to investigate the admintstra
hot' of the military governments in Now Orleans dur
ing be war, and especially the testimony of J. B.
Smith, Jacob Balker. and W. W. Watson, relative to
the edintivetration of General Butler, and his connec
tion with the trite ot.Lultes Borgne and Ponchartrain
with his brother, A J Butler.
Mi. Dawns coneleered it altogether unnecessary to
instruct the committee.
The House seconded the demand for the previous
question, and ordered the main question to be put.
Mr. ELMIRA'S desired to make a few remarks.
Mr. Covoith and others objected.
Mr. BOYER desired to make an inquiry of the Chair.
Be asked whether if the resolution should be adopted
in relation to the misappropriation of gold, it would
be competent to inquire into the misappropriation of
spoons and other plates, provided the material he sil
ver.
The SPEAKER replied the Inquiry was not parlia
mentary.
Mr, Etnnroom suggested a modification of the res
olution eo as to cover the entire administration of
General Butler. lie could see no reason why a part
only en - 111d be agreed to.
The resolution as introduced by Mr. Dawes was
agreed to.
Mr. CARY, of Ohio, rose to a question *of privilege,
and presented a preamble commencing—
. Whereas, This House, in the tenth article of im
peachment, charged Andrew Johnson--
Mr. FARNSWORTH made the point that this was not
a question of privilege. . .
Mr. VAN WIVE objected to the further reading un
til the Chair ruled on the subject.
The Serum said he would decide on the subject
after the paper shall have been read.
It was reed to the effect:
Whereas, This Souse, in the tenth article of ha
mhment, charged Andrew Manton „with high
t demeanors In officei by malting intemperate, vio

Mr ELDBIDOB objected to the gentleman's speaking . ,
saying that he had been refused the floor five min

Mr. BANES insisted that he had a right to make a
statement.
:Mr. ELDRIDGE withdrew his objection, saving he
would:not be as illiberal to gentlemen as taey had
been to him.
The SPBARBB said thegentleman from Massachu
setts could not now make his statement, and asked
would the House consider the resolution of the gen
tleman from Ohio.
Mr. ROBINSON demanded the yeas and nays, which
were ordered, but before they were taken, on motion
of Mr. RARNBWOBTII, at a quarter to five o'clock, the.
House adjourned.
MIL EDITOR—Dear Sir: Pardon one for the liberty I
take in writing to you, for it is not often that I trouble
editors, but in this case I cannot keep Mien', and mast let
the facts be my excuse. An insertion of them 1 kuow
will greatly interest a large number of your readers. Be.
log duly appointed guardian of the children of W. IL
Beane of Trenton, I was informed that he had m ado ap•
plication to the Continental Life Insurance Company. of
Now York for an insurance policy en his life for $1,600,
in behalf of his children but was taken sick and died be
sore having an opportunity to make a payment or got the
policy. We, the friends of the family, were in doubt
in regard to collecting the amount, but then agent assured
us that the company would recognize a moral obligation,
and the claim be paid. As soon as I was able to obtain a
certificate from your surrogate, Mr. Scudder, that I was
the proper person to receive it, a check was handed me
for the amount.. I cannot speak in terms too high of the
agent and company, for all was done without any effort
on our pat t. The children are now well eared for, which
will be good news to the many members of the family.
and is Intended to satisfy those who, like myself, were
skeptical.

the satisfaction of every fair-minded man within

count Praident witlicalautty, • - wickets:der, when he
suspended the Secretary of Wilton:ldes the pretence,
in the words of your statute, that he was guilty of a
misdemeanor, or a crime in office, or had become
legally dreqhalified. He was legally disqualified, un
doubtedly, cadging him by the Presidenter standard. If
the qualification of an office ia an utter disregard for
the obligations of an oath.
He was guilty of rondemeanorend crime undonhte
edly, according to the Presidenterstandard, if he Was
guilty of el trotter that neither the Executive of the
United States nor any o th er man might at pleasure
suspend the peoples' laws which were enacted byhttem
eeives, and for themeeives, and are for their protection
both while they wake' and'while they sleep. at home
and abroad, on the land and on the seas. Your Sec
retary of War, Senators, whatever may be the result
of this day's proceedings, will stand, as I said before,
in the great hereafter upon the page of history as
one who has deserved well of his country—
a man equal in the discharge of his office
in every quality that can adorn or ennoble,
or elevate human nature to any man of our own
time, or of any time, a man who was clear in his great
office, a man who organized victory for your bettal
ions In the field as men never organized victory before
in the Cabinet councils of the people since nations
were upon the face of the earth. And this man is to
be' suspended , by a guilty and corrupt and oath-break
ing President. wider a. law which he defied under the
hollow and hypocritical pretence that he was guilty of
miedemeanor, or crime, or, in the language of the
law, had become otherwise disqualified for holding
office. I dismiss the subject. The Secretary neexla
to defense from me, and yet I will state in passing
that I shall take this notice of what the President
has done, not simply to his hurt but to the hurt of
the republic. I have said enough, Senators, to sat
iety you and to satisfy all reasonable men: in Ude
.country that the President when he made this suspen
sion of the Secretary of War had no doubt of the
validity of this law and its obligation upon him, and
that the Secretary was within its provisions; for,
availing hin self of its express provisions, he did sus
pend him, and made report, as I have said, to the
Senate. Now, what apology. what excuse can be
made for this abuse of the powers conferred upon the
President, for which be stands charged this day, in
that be has abused, in the language of the authority
which I read yesterday before the Senate, and which
was used on the trial of Justice Peck, without a dis
senting voice, "Who has abused the power conferred
upon him by the statute?"
Er. ,Butonaw was glad to be able -to agree witi.
counsel CM 0118 point at Law. namely. that an iment
stitutional law was no law, but he insisted that it can
not be considered unconstitutional until it has been
so pronounced in the proper way. lie would also re
iterate, that evil intent is to be presumed from evil
acts, but the President's evil intention was not mere
ly a matter of presumption, but of confession. To
allow thus. Mr. 'Bingham read front the President's
letter to Gesierel Grant, in which he says: "Yoe knew
it was my purpose to prevent Stanton from resuming
the duties of the office of Secretary of War," and he
claimed farther, that every 'one not stupid or insane,
must see, that if Mr. Btantoa bad been kept out of
his office, he never could have got into Court, and
a decision could never have been obtained.
The President's defense that he wanted to obtain a
epio warrant!) was mere babble in the ears of the
Senate. He asked why, if the President's purpose in
all be did was to procure a decision of the Supreme
Court, he did not institute proceedings? It was be
cause it was trope sibie ter Min to do so, as he knew
it would be from the beginning. He then read from
Greenleaf to show that the President must be held
reeponsible for what, with ordinary intelligence, he
mast have seen would be the consequence of his
action.
In reply to the d e fensee that the removal was not
consummated, he said, What answer do gentlemen
make, and how do they attempt to escape from this
provision of the law? Why, they say the President
attempted to remove the Secretary of War, bathe
did not succeed. Are we to be told, Senators, that if
a man makes an attempt upon your life here in the
District of Columbia, although if you were to search
ever so closely the Constitution of the United States,
you would not find th e offense definitely defined ,and
its punishment preecribed by statute.
Are we to be told because he did not succeed in
murderine you outright, tiug he nuns; banNuitted, to
try what success he may have on another day and in
another place, in accomplishing his purpose. Sena"'
tore, I have reminded you already of that whiciryort
knew, that your act of 1601, as well as of 1531, de
clares that all offenses, indictable at the common taw,
committed within the District of Columbia, shall be
crimes or misdemeanors, according to their grades.
and shall be indictable find Punishable in the District
of Columbia in your own mute,
I Detected to the learned gentleman from New York
the other day, upon this point, and for the life of me—
and I beg his pardon for saying so—l could not un
deretand what induced the gentleman to venture upon
the intimation that there was any each thing possible
sus a defense of the President for the unlawful attempt
to violate this law.
By admitting the order to be an , unlawful attempt,
I say with all respect to the gentleman, that it has
been settled through tit: current century and longer,
by the highest courts of this•country and of England,
that the attempt to commits misdemeanor, whether
the misdemeanor be one at common law or a misde
meanor by statute law, the attempt is !teed a miede•
raeanor. _
IMr. Bingbant qutitednuesell, 84, to the above
effect.l I would like to nee a book brought into this
chamber to contradict that rule. It is common law
as well as common sense. But, farther, what are is
there tor raising a< question when the further pro
vision of the statute is "That the making, signing,
sealing. countersigning or issuing any commission,
letter of authority or ownership of any suet! appoint
ment or employment obeli be assumed, and are hereby
• declared to be a high misdemeanor." Who into chal
lenge this—here or elsewhere?
What answer has been made? What answer can be
made to . this? None. Senators, none. When the
words of a statute are plain there is an end to tel con
troversy, and in this, as in every other part of this
discussion touching the laws of the land, I stand
upon that accented canon of construction stated by
the teamed Attorney-General in his defense of the
President last week, when he said effect must be
given to every part of the written law.
I have discharged my dutya-my whole duty. The
.question which now remains is whether the tenure
of-office act to valid? If it is, whatever gentlemen
.may say about the first article, there is no men in
- America but knows that under the *second. and , third,
and eighth articles, by issuing a letter of authority,
the President was •guilty of a high misdemeanor in
, the words of ,the statute. He did issue the 'letter of
authority;and he had written it down en the 10th of
February that his object and purpose was to violate
that very law and to prevent the Secretary of War
from resuming the - functions of his , office, although
the law says he shall forthwith resume the functions
-of his office, in case the Senate non-concurred in the
enepension. And yet gentlemen riggle here about
this question as if it was an open question. It is not an
open question It is a settled, closed question this day,
this hour, in the judgment of every enlightened,
letelligent man who• ban access to your record, and
it is, ueelees. and worse than useless, to waste time
an it The question now le e Ise the act valid? Is it
constitutional? Senators, I ought to consider
that question closely. I ought to assume that
the Congress of the. United States which passed
the act will abide by it. Congress acted on the
responsibility of Ito oath. It acted under
the limitatiOne of the Constitution. The
Thirty-ninth Congress, not uunlindfnl, I trust, of its
obligation, and not Mumble of judging and consider
ing the grants and limitations of the Constitution,
passed tile law because, first, it deemed itself au.
thorized to do so by the Constitution, and because,
secondly, it deemed that its enactment was
necessary, . and , that is the- language of the
Constitutem itself. To the public welfare, and the
public intereet Congress sent it, in obedience, to the
requirements of the Constitution, to the President for
his approval. The President, in the exercise of. his

other words, to change theirrecord. They ask to have
this journal read hereafter at the opening of the Court:
"The people of the 'United States against the Senate
and House of Representatives, charged will; high.
crimes and misdemeanors in this, that. in disregard,
of the Constitution, in, disregard ,of their oath of
office, they did enact a certain law, entitled 'an set to
regulate the tenure of certain civil offices,' to the hurt
and Injury of the American;people, and 'that theY are.
thereby guilty of high crimes and misdemeanors in
office."
• Mr. Bingham then referred to his own course and'
that of the majority of; his part), in Opposing im
peachment until it was unavoidable; until the gods
bad made him mad whom they wished to destroy. in
regard to the defense based on the practice of the'
government during eighty years, he denied that such
practice watreontrary to the spirit of 1789nure-of
office law, but Claimed that the acts of nd 1792, ,
and subsequent years, all implied and aesumed the'
power of Congress to regulate the entire subject,
In regard to the declarations of the President,
which contrary to mice of evidence had been
adduced in his ' defense, he said they were all
made after the fact, yet he was not sorry tin y
bad been admitted , for they all concurred In show
ing the President's unjustifiable purpose.
Be continued: The President has no rlght.to chal
lenge the laws, and td suspend their execution until
it is his pleasure to test their validity in a court of
justice. But, Benatons, what more is there? is
charged with conapiracy here. A conspiracy is proved
upon him by his letter of authority to General
Thomas, and by Thomas' acceptance under his own
bands; both of these papers are before the Senate,
and in evidence. What is a conspiracy? A simple,
agreement between two or more persona to do an un
lawful act, either with or without force, and the of
fense is completed the moment the agreement is en.
tared into. ,
hearaisdemean' or at einamonlaw,, and it la a mis
demeanor under the act of 1801. It is a misdemeanor
under the act of 1881 It is a misdemeanor for which
Andrew Johnson and Lorenzo Thomas are both in
dictable after these proceedings shall have closed.
And it is a misdemeanor, an indictment for which
would be worth no more than the paper on which it
it would be written; until after this impeachment trial
shall have closed, and the Senate shall havepro—
nounced the righteous judgment of guilty on this of- ,
render against yonr-laws, and for this simple reason,
Setattoks, that it is written in your Constitution that
the President shall have power to grant reprieves and
pardons for all.offenees against the United States save.
in cons of impeachment.. Indeed, if Lorenzo Thomas
were tomorrow Indicted fora conspiracy with Andrew
Johnson to prevent Edward M. Stanton from resum
ing the functions of his office, all that would be
wanted would be for Andrew Johnson with a mere
wave of his hand to issue a general pardon and to dis
miss' the procetalings.
1 say again, this is the tribunal of the people, in
which to try this great offender, this violator of oaths,
of the Constitution and the laws. Well , say gentle
men, It is a very little offense, and you may forgiva
him that. It is a very little offense when the pardon
ing power does not happen to be conferred upon him,
and these tender and tearful appeals to the Senate on
the ground of its being a little thing, do not amount
to very flinch, hut, say the , gentlemen, you have also
charged him, under th e act of 1861, with having con
spired with Lorenzo Thomas in the ene article with
force, and in the other with threats and intimida
tions, to work out the same result In preventing the
execution of the law.
So we have, and we say that he is clearly proved
guilty. How? By the confession made by his co-con
spirators, I have said that the conspiracy le estab
lished by the written letter of authority and by the
written acceptance of that letter of authority by
Thomai, and the conspiracy being established, I say
that the declaration of the co conspirators made In
the prosecution of the common design is evidence
against both.
'Mr. Bingham, in this connection, read some ex
tracts from the testimony of General Thomas in ref
erence to the mode in which he proposed to gain pos
session of the papers of the War Department. and
particularly in reference to the draft of a letter which
he submittad for the President's consideration on the
10th of March. Mr. Bingham, referring to the date
of this draft letter, remarked that this was after the
President was impeached, and that it showed that the
President was sti* defying the power of the people to
check him.
The Senate will notice he said that these two con
federates and co-conspirators have not only been de
liberately conferring together about violating the
tenure-of-office act, and the act making appropria
tions for the army, but-that one of the conspirators
has written out an order for the very purpose of violat
ing the law, and that the other conspirator, seeing the
handwriting on the wall, and apprehensive after all
that the Senate of the United States, in,the name of
all the people, may pronounce him guilty, concludes
to whisper in the ear at his co-consplrator, "Let it rest
until alter the Impeachment."
Give him, Senators, a letter of authority, and he is
re'hdy to renew the contest, and again to sit in judicial
jadgmemt on all your statutes, and to say in the lan
gaage of his accomplished and learned advocate (41r.
Canis), that he has deliberately settled down in the
Constitution that yourlaw regulating the army, fixing
the headquarters of its general in the capital not re
movable without the content of the Senate, does im
pair certain rights conferred upon him by the Consti
tution, and that by his profound judicial judgment he
had come to the conclusion to set aside that law and
to order General Grant to California. or to Oregon,
or Maine, and defy you again to try hira.
Senators, I treat you will spare the people any each
exhibition. Now, Senators. it has been my endeavor
to &Ilea to-day all that I desire to say on this matter.
I know that, if I were in possession of my strength, I
could finish all I have to say In the coarse of an hour
or an hour arid a half. It is 'now, however, past four
o'clock, and if the Senate will be good enough to in
dulge me, I promise that I shall conclude my argu
ment before recess tomorrow.
The Court then adjourned, and the Senate, after re
ceiving several messages in writing from the Presi
dent, adjourned at 9:10 o'clock.
Orders to be Considered by the Senate.
The following are the orders pending before the Im
peachment Court, which will come up for considera
