Tho Committeooh Banking Currency was directed to inquire iuto the expe? diency of amending banking laws so as to relieve State banks in process of liquidation from monthly state? ments and tax ou circulation. A motion was made that the House in committee ntteud on the impeach? ment managers, to witness the organ? ization of the court, but was with? drawn, at the suggestion of Bingham, thal1' only managers were expected, ona there were po accommodations on the floor of the Senate to scat the House. The managers withdrew, followed by many members-leaving about forty in the House, who pro? ceeded with the Tonnessee election ' case. For the first time for several years, the Democrats found them .selves iu a majority in the House ol Representatives. Without conclud? ing tho election case, adjourned. In tho Senate, the resolution oi thanks of the South Carolina Con' vention to Congress, Grant and Stanton, was presented. A bill was introduced to rebuild the levees oi the East bank of the Mississippi, anc to reclaim Yazoo River lands. Chase appeared, supported by a committee the managers followed, supported bj a large number of members of th* House. Wade announced that al business will now be suspended, fo: the purpose of proceeding to tin business required by tho impeach ment of Andrew Johnson, Presiden of* the United States. The chaii will now be vaoated for that purpose Chase advanced, took the chair, anc said: "Senators-I am here, in obe dien?o to your notice, for tho pur pose of proceeding with you in form ing a.court of impeachment, for th trial of Audrew Johnson, Presiden of the United States. I am nov ready to toke the oath." Justic Nelson administered the oath pre scribed by tho Senate's rulos of prc oe ed ure; Chase thea administeren tho oath to tho Senators, in alpha betical order, until Wade approached when Johnson objected to his becom ing a member of the court, becaus he had contingent interest. A dis ?u.ssiou eusued, lasting uutil 5o'clock when, on motion, Judgo Chase ad journed the court. Wade resume his seat, and, on motion, adjonrne tho Senate. The Reconstruction Conventions.

' WASHINGTON, March 25.-No pr gress whatever was made durii nearly four boars debate, this aft? noon, on impeachment. Utter co fusion prevails regarding mode proceeduxo, A dozou Senators spok no two agreeing upou tho dotu dovoloped during the disonssio among tho points made, to the sat faction of tho different spcakei . Wade having an interest, had i righi in vtbe court-^being a Senator of Qhio, it was his duty to 'not r.nd vote; though "Watte had a right to vote, it waa a matter with his own conscience; that when th? President came to the b:*r,'it was time to make challenges; that ?fe President, bad no right whatever to challenge judges-the Constitution provided, *or him; that it was the duty in or? ganizing to keep the organization pnre; that if, at the end, tho scales were equally .balanced, that into which you throw Wade's personal interest, would kick the beam; that they wpro a court; that they were a Senate; that with only half the mem? bers sworn, they were neither one nor the other. This was the argu? ment, which progressed until 5 d"elock, when a Senator remarking that Judge Chase had been on duty uince 10 o'olock, moved an adjournment.' Howard objected; they had a rule for adjournment. The court was accordingly adjourned by that rule. The Senate was left in session. The managers wore in at? tendance all ovening, evidently im? patient to begin work. Large numbers visited the Presi? dent to-day. Stanton still sleeps in tho War Department.

I HAVE PATENTED, and now desire to introduce, an important improvement in tho construction of ARTIFI? CIAL DENTURES, whereby tho strength, reliability and facility of repair, pertain? ing to swaged plate work; is communicated to moulded motalic or vulcanizable base. Streug Plate Teeth as firmly attached to tho base as if soldered to swaged plate, are. by this process, substituted for those specially designed for moulded base. By their use tho operator ia left freo to ex? ercise his own judgment in their arrange? ment, and finds himsolf nu longer confined to tho aamene&a of the present stylo of blocks, or Bingle teeth weakened by carv? ing for moulded work. No now appliances are required in this firocess. It is eatily acquired by any ono ainiliar with either moulded or swaged work. It gives to the operator confidence in tho reliability of his cases, exempting him from tho disappointment and per? plexity often attendant on his most faith . lui efforts. It renders partial cases as reli ablo as full sets, and, consequently, will tond to ameliorate the present deplorable practice of extracting every tooth, sound or unsound, which stands in tho way of tho latter. The method lins been thoroughly tested, and is now submitted to tho profession with tho assurance that it will bo fouud to fulfill all that is claimed for it. Its results aro higlily artistio, very beautiful, and af? ford the utmost satisfaction to operator and patient.
