M.-At 12 Vo'.ock the Senato galleries were final, bat there were no black faces in thc crowd. This j ereates indignation among thc republicans. The gallery was almost entirely filled with ladies, and members appear to have confined ihelr favors to their boardinghouses. Senators occupy their usual seats. In thc rear there are one hundred and fifty chairs for members, i Attorney-General Stan bery and Messrs. Cur? tis and Wilson were present as counsel for the President. At one o'clock Chief Justice Chase entered the court and proclaimed it open. The jour? nal was then read. During the reading the members at the head of the Houso procession appeared, ann in arm, at tho Senate entrance, "wb,ere they halted until ten minutes past one, when the managers armousccd Stovens and Butler absent. The roll was then cr lied that .senators who had been absent might be sworn in. It ia expected that one hour will bo occu? pied in preliminaries. [Second Dispatch.) THE CHAPLAIN-A SNGBBEKQ COMMENCEMENT ENTRANCE OP THE CODNSEIi-FORTY DAI8 DE? MANDED-THE PRESIDENT TO ANSWER ON UAR CH 23-ADJOURNMENT OF THE HIGH COURT. . WASHINGTON, March 13-3 P. M-The chaplain, in opening the Senato, prayed that the verdict of the high court might be such as would bo approved by the people and the high court of Heaven. During the proceedings reported in the dis? patch of 1:15 P. M., Chief Justice Chase snubbed Senators Howard and Grimes twice by mterrupting their suggestions with the re -mtii, "The next thing in order." . Senators Edmunds, Patterson and Vickers being sworn in, the managers and members of the House entered the chamber. On motion, the President's counsel were no? tified that the court was ready to proceed, and 1 they also entered the chamber. Mr. Stanbery read a paper from tho Presi- ' dent, authorizing himself and J. L. Black,Wm. ? M. Evatts, B. B, Curtis, ead Thomas A B. Nel? son, to represent bim. Mr. Stanbery asked for forty days, in which to prepare his answer. ] Mr. Bingham opposed, insisting that the niles j required a plea to be made to-day, and in this ho was supported by Mr. Wilson. A sharp ar- ? griment ensued, when Mr. Edmunds mcved to give to April 6th, for the presentation of an answer, but before the question was put, Sena? tor Morton moved that the Senate retire for ' consultation, which was carried. * The Senate remained ont two hours and ten 1 minutes. On their return an order was read that tho President should make answer by the 23d March. Tho managers then moved that immediately after their replication the trial . should proceed, which was lost by a vote of ' twenty-six to twenty-five. Tho Republicans voting nay were : Messrs. 1 Anthony, Edmunds, Feesenden, Fowler. Frey- 1 linghuysen, Grimes, Henderoon, Howe, both 1 the Morrells, Norton, Sherman, Sprnguo, Trum- 1 bull, Van Winkle and Willey. Mr. Conkling then moved that the trial com- 1 menee immediately after the replication of the . managers, unless the Senate granted addition- ] al time for good canee, which was carried by a 1 strict party vote. The high court then adjourned to March j 23d, and the Senate adjourned to Monday. ' [Third Dispatch. 1 THE CONDUCT OF THE CHIE7 JUSTICE-THAT CHAPLAIN-DEFEAT OF TUE MANAGERS-NO ' PERSONS OR PAPERS FOB THE PERSECUTED PRESIDENT-THE PLAN OF PROCEDURE-AN? OTHER LICE FOB THE MANAGERS-THE DEVIL AGAIN SICE. WASHINGTON, March 13-Evening.-Chief Justice Chase governed tho high court very strictly. The chaplain, in his elaboiatc appeal, failed to mention the acciised. The managers were defeated in their at? tempts,-first, to compel an anster to-day, and, second, to have the trial proceed immedi? ately' after the replication, regardless of the state of preparation of tho defence. The court gave the accused no authority or money to send for witnesses, nor was this de? manded by the defence. The debate developed the fact that after the President makes his answer on the 23d Inst, the managers will have to submit their replica? tion to the House before presenting it. The managers estimate that this routino will occupy three days, after which, if the Senate continues in its present temper, the President will have a liberal time for preparation. Only Stanbery, Curtis and Nelson were pre? sent on the part of the President. They all spoke, and made a favorable impression. Bingham, Wilson and Butler spoke on the part of the managers. Butler was in favor of speeding the proceedings, as this was a rail? road age. Stevens, during the absence of the Senate, reclined on two chairs in a prostrate condition. His terrible cough gave interest to the inter? ruption ot the proceedings. ' Oar Washington Dispatches. THE M'ARDLE CASE-A NEW GEOR0IA DILL-REV? ENUE-AN EMPORTANT CASE OF CAPTURE-NO DECISION THIS TEEM IN THE M'ARDLE CASE. WASHINGTON, March 13.-The Massachusetts State Convention has declared for Orant aud Wilson. There was a new Georgia bill offered in the Supreme Court this morning. Mr. Carpenter, on behalf of the Secretary of War and others, objected, on the jrronnds that no ouo was au? thorized to appear hero on behalf of Georgia, and that Jenkins was not Georgia's Governor. The conrt took the bill and the objection under advisement, and will probably decido on Monday. The Revenue to-day $452,000. There was a full Cabinet meeting to-day pre? vious to which the President was engaged with Messrs. Stanbery and Curtis, ananging for the impeachment trial. There was no argument on thc Goorgia caso to-day. In the case of tho steamer Wren, argued to? day, two points were involved; first, when the right of capture as a prize of war terminated; second, whether vessels belonging to the Con? federate government passed in right of prop? erty to the United States. The Tiren was cap? tured Jone 13,1865. An eminent lawyer expresses the opinion that the decision in the McArdle caso will not be given this term. CONGRESSIONAL.

Brazil, from v?iich we make the following extracts : You wish to know if I am satisfied here. I will say this, that I can make au abundance to eat with less labor, than anywhere else I have been, but I do not like the associations. I dont like the barefooted and iiake?-frGin-thc waist-up women, aud mcu with their shirts outside of their pants. I don't uko the bicho and bayouu and thc one hundred fleas now racing up and down my legs, and, though land minc enjoy thc very best Health, in :i climate favorable to longevity, I can't say that I am satisfied, or willing to spend tho rcinuaut of my days hero ; in tune, however, I may be recon? ciled and then 1 can write to you and give von the reasons for thc change. There is a class in our county who would do well here, and wonld, I think, bo pleased with the cou..try, I mean thoso who can hardly earn a support by hard labor, and who caro very little'for society ; hore they can five "fat" by working one-fifth of their time, and if industrious, could make a little competency besides. If you wish to come to Brazil you can very easily" marry a coffee plantation and get a very nice ~oman to boot (the better classes are weil educated, and some of them very pretty); otherwise it will not suit you. as you don't like to work. Some cf the Americans oxpress themselves delighted with the country, and probablv a good many of my Monroerille friends would like it better than I do. To the lover of hunting, I would say that game is searoe and hard to get at, and a min would starve to death for sport and supp ?rt who depended upon hunting. Fish are p ' mtif ul on the coast, but very scarce here. I. cul 1 see more fish in crossing half a dozen st. cam i in Florida than I could catch here in a TH JE CONVENTION". nFTESTH DAT. Thc convention is in the position of an au? thor, who, having reached the closing chapter of his novel, devot'c6 his final hours to the gathering np of the tangled threads of the story, and, with amendatory touch, prepares it for the public eye. New subjects of legisla? tion are scarcely entertained, and since tho nominations have been made, and personal popularity no longer depends on the success of peculiar measure?, there is even a disposition to tone down and moderate what is objection? able to a degree, which shall render thc entire work, as far as it is possible to be so, accept? able to the masses. The convention assembled at the usual hour. Gen!. Canby shortly arrived, and was presented to the body and was received with cheers. The President read the following communi? cation : HEADQUARTERS U.
