WAstimarcitc, May 18: 18684 .
SENATE.
The Cha i r presented a corrected copy of
.
the Constitution adopted by the Virginia
Convention:
Indefinite leave of absence, at the instance
of Senator Edmunds, was given Senator
Grimes, on account of illness.
The act making appropriations for the
supply ot defielenciesin the appropriation
for the execution of the Reconstruction
laws in the Third District, for the fiscal'
year ending June 30th, 1868, was passed.
Senator DRAKE moved, as a privileged
question, to reconsider the vote by which
the Senate refused to concur in the reso
lution for an adjournment until the 25th.
After discussion the House was request
ed to return it to the Senate.
Senator 'HARLAN rose to a personal ex
planation. An extract was read from the
Washington correspondence of the Balti
more Salt, giving the substance of a dis
patch from Mr. narlan to Bishop Simpson,
saying, - "He • (Bro. 'Willey) is lost.:*
[Laughter.] Also a reply from Bishop
1 Simpson,. saying; "Brother Wiley is a
Christian, and cannot falter with his soul.
Pray with Bro. Willey." In justice to that-
Senator and himself, 'Mr. Harlan said there
was not a word of truth in it. Ho had had
no correspondence with Bishop Simpson
sineethe.impeachment commenced.
The concurrent resolution having been,
returned by the House, Senator TRUM
BULL favored postponing it, and called up
the bill for the admission of Arkansas.
Senator DIXON thought it inadvisable to
afford abbpportunitylor raising the ques
tion of the Arkansas Senators' right to vote
on the impeachment.
- Senator FESSENDEN said it was not
coieeivable that Senators would be scvlost
to shame as to permit those gentlemen to
vote on the impeachment, in case they were
now admitted, and advocated the taking up
of..the . bill- If Muttwere not done, he
.thonght other hnsiness - atiould be done, and
was in any event, opposed to adjournment.
The Senate finally refused to take up the
Arkansas bill-sixteen to twenty-four--and
agreed to adjourn from this evening until
.thelathinst.:, by twenty:three to tfinet awl.
Senator BUCKALEW rose to a privil
eged nuestion, and spoke at, considerable
