WASHINGTON, March 13.-At . 15
o'clock, tho Senate galleries wer?,
fillod, but no black faces were in tb?

arnoug the Republicans. The galley
was almost entirely filled with ladies
The members appear to have eon
fiued their favors to theiv boarding
houses. The Senators occupy then
usual seats. lu the rear are 15(
chairs for members. Stanbery

the President. At 1 o'clock, Chic
Justice Chase entered tho court ant
proclaimed it open. During tin
reading of the journal, the bend o
the House procession, arm-in-arm

where it halted. At 1.10, the mana

be occupied in routine.
Tho chaplain prayed that th?! vex
diet of the high court would be sucl
as would bo approved by the peopl
and the high court of Heaven. Pri
vate bills woro considered until th
impeachment hour.
Chase governed thc court ver
strictly. The mauugers were dofeul
ed in both their attempts-first, t
compel him to answer to-day, and
second, to have tho trial procee
' immediately niter their replientior
regardless of State preparation c
defence. The court will give tl)
aeensed no authority or money t
send for witnesses; it was not di
mauded by the defence. The debal
developed the fact that after tho Pn
siden't makes his answer, on tho 23i
tho managers will have to subm
their replication to tho Houso be.foi
presenting it. The managers est
mate that this routine will occur
