formed discussing the subject. The inquiry was made of everybody coming from the direction of the Senate, "What's the latest news?" or "Who has last spoken, and what course had he taken?" Answers were given according to the ability of the person interrogated. It was ascertained that numeron8 Senators had spoken, but the views of the Republicans excited the most interest

It was ascertained that Messrs. Grimes, Trumbull and Fessenden had clearly expressed themselves against the conviction of the President, while Mr. Henderson was against all the articles of impeachment except the eleventh. Messrs. Sherman and Howe, according to the general account, supported only the second, third. fourth, eighth and eleventh articles. Messrs. Edmunds, Stewart, Williams and Morrill (Me:) sustained all the articles, while Messrs. Hendricks, Davis, Johnson and Dixon opposed them.

Midnight.-A large number of persons were in the Rotunda of the Capitol to-night, waiting to hear from the Senate, which resumed its secret session at halfpast seven o'clock. Only those privileged to enter the Senate side of the building, including members of the House and reporters for the press were permitted to approach the immediate vicinity of the Senate. Some occupied the adjacent rooms, while others stood in the passage ways, all anxious inquirers after important intelligence.

It was ascertained that Senator Conness, Harlan, Wilson and Morton spoke in favor of, and Mr. Buckalew in opposition to the conviction of the President. The expectation by the outside parties was that those who are regarded as doubtful on the Republican side would express their views.

Mr. Edinunds submitted the following order:That the order of the Senate that it will proceed at twelve o'clock, noon, to-morrow, to vote on the articles of impeachment, be rescinded.

This was not acted on.

Mr. WILLIAMS offered the following:

Ordered, That the Chief Justice, in directing the Secretary to read the several articles of impeachment, shall direct him to read the eleventh article first, and the question shall be then taken upon that article, and thereafter the other ten successively as they stand. This lies over.

A motion that the Senate meet at half-past eleven o'clock to-morrow morning to sit with open doors, was agreed to.

The Senate adjourned at eleven o'clock.

PROCEEDINGS OF TUESDAY, MAY 12.

The chair was taken at half-past eleven precisely by the President pro tem., and the Chaplain, Rev. Dr. Gray, then opened the proceedings with prayer. After an invocation on behalf of the nation, he concluded as follows:

"Prepare the mind, O, Lord, of the President for the removal or the suspense connected with this day's proceedings; prepare the minds of the people for the momentous issues which hang upon the decisions of the hour; prepare the minds of Thy servants, the Senators, for the great responsibility of this hour; may they be wise in counsel; may they be clear and just, and correct in judgment, and may they be faithful to the high trusts committed to them by the nation, and may the blessing of God be upon the people everywhere; may the people bow to the supremacy of the law; may order, and piety, and peace prevail throughout all our deliberations, and may the blessing of God rest upon the nation. God preserve the people. God preserve the government and save it. God maintain the right, to-day and forevermore. Amen."

Messrs. Stanbery and Evarts entered the Chamber. In the meantime the Chief Justice assumed the chair, and the court was opened by proclamation.

Senator CHANDLER immediately arose and addressed the Chair, but the Chief Justice directed the Secretary to proceed with the reading of the journal. After the reading had progressed for some minutes, Mr. EDMUNDS moved that the further reading be dispensed with, but

Mr. DAVIS objected, and the journal was read through.

Mr. EDMUNDS moved to take up the pending order, which was as follows:

Ordered, That the standing order of the Senate, that it will proceed at twelve o'clock, noon, to-morrow, to voté upon the articles of impeachment, be reconsidered.

Mr.CHANDLER asked unanimous consent to make a statement. No objection being made he said:-My colleague, Mr. Howard, is taken suddenly ill, and was delirious yesterday. He was very ill this morning, but he told me that he would be here to vote, even at the peril of his life. Both of his physicians, however, objected, and said it would be at the peril of his life. With this statement, I desire to move that the Senate, sitting as a court, adjourn until Saturday next, at twelve o'clock.

Mr. HENDRICKS moved to amend by making it to-morrow at twelve o'clock.

Mr. CHANDLER-There is no probability that he will be able to be up; he had a very high fever and was delirious; he said he would be here to-day if the Senate insisted on having him come.

Mr. FESSENDEN inquired whether the postponement would leave the order with reference to filing opinions after the final vote applicable to-day? The Chief Justice-The Chief Justice understands that it applies to the final vote.

Mr. CONNESS-And two days thereafter?
The Chief Justice-And two days thereafter.

Mr. HENDRICKS then suggested that Mr. Chandler modify his motion so as to provide for an adjourn ment till Thursday, when, if the Senator should not be well enough, a further adjourment could be had. Mr. CHANDLER asked would Friday suit the Senator?

Several Senators-"No" "no."

The motion of Mr. Hendricks was lost.

Mr. TIPTON moved to amend by making it Friday, but the motion was not agreed to, Senator Sumner and mover apparently being the only Senators voting affirmatively.

Mr. BUCKALEW suggested that Mr. Chandler modify his motion to read, "that when the Senate adjourn it be to Saturday."

Mr. CHANDLER so modified it, and it was agreed to, with only one or two nays on the Democratic side. Mr. EDMUNDS moved that the Secretary be di rected to inform the House the Senate will proceed further in the trial on Saturday next, at twelve o'clock. He withdrew the motion, however, after a few minutes.

On motion of Mr. DRAKE, the court was adjourned at ten minutes before twelve o'clock.

PROCEEDINGS OF SATURDAY, MAY 16.

WASHINGTON, May 16.-The Senate met at 11:30 A. M. The galleries were full, and policemen were stationed in all the aisles.

At 12 M., the Chief Justice assumed the Chair, and called the court to order. In the meantime, Mana gers Stevens, Bingham and Logan, and Mr. Evarts, of the counsel for the President, had entered and taken their places. Mr. Conkling, Mr. Grimes and Mr. Howard were present, making a full Senate.

The following is the vote on the adoption of an order, offered by Mr. Williams, to take the vote on the eleventh article, first:

YEAS-Messrs. Anthony, Cameron, Cattell, Chandler Cole, Conkling, Conness, Corbett, Cragin, Drake Edmunds, Ferry, Frelinghuysen, Harlan, Howard, Howe, Morgan, Morill (Me.), Morrill (Vt.), Morton, Nye, Patterson (N. H.), l'omeroy, Ramsey, Sherman, Sprague, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton, Wade, Williams, Wik son and Yates-34.

NAYS-Messrs. Bayard, Buckalew, Davis, Dixon, Doolit tle, Fessenden, Fowler, Henderson, Hendricks, Johnson, McCreery, Norton, Patterson (Tenn.), Ross, Saulsbury, Trumbull, Van Winkle, Vickers and Willey-19.

Senator JOHNSON inquired whether the order of Senator Williams was debateable.

The Chief Justice replied that it was not. Senator JOHNSON said he would like to make a remark on it.

Senator CONNESS objected.

The question was then put on taking up Senator Williams' order for action, and it was decided. Yeas, 34; nays, 19.

Senator Wade voted for the first time, and voted in the affirmative. Senator Grimes was not then present.

The vote was then taken on the Eleventh Article of impeachment, and resulted as follows:

[blocks in formation]

The vote stood 35 for conviction, and 19 for acquittal. So Andrew Johnson was acquitted on that article.

Immeditaely on the declaration of not guilty on the eleventh article, Mr. Williams moved an adjournment to Tuesday, 26th inst.

Mr. HENDRICKS claimed it to be out of order.
The Chair so decided.

Mr. DRAKE appealed from the decision of the Chair, and it was overruled. Yeas, 34; nays, 20.

The votes of the Senators were waited for with the utmost anxiety, though nothing more than a general motion as of suspense relieved, was made manifest when the vote of a doubtful Senator was given. It was noticed that Senator Cameron voted ahead of time. The Chief Justice had not concluded the formal question before the Senator's vote of guilty was pronounced. Senators Fessenden, Fowler, Grimes, Ross, Trumbull, and Van Winkle, among the Republican Senators, voted not guiity. Senator Wade, when his name was called, stood up unhesi-tatingly, and voted guilty.

Before the result of the vote was announced, but when it was known, Mr. WILLIAMS rose and moved that the Senate, sitting as a Court of Impeachment, adjourn till Tuesday, May 26, at twelve o'clock.

Senator JOHNSON addressed the Chief Justice. The Chief Justice said that debate was not in order. Senator JOHNSON-Is it in order to adjourn the Senate when it has already decided on one of the articies.

The Chief Justice-The precedents are, except in one case, "the case of Humphreys," that the announcement was not made until the end of the cause. The Chair will, however, take the direction of the Senate. If the Senate desire the announcement to be made now, it will be made.

Senator SHERMAN-The announcement of the vote had better be made.

Senator DRAKE I submit, as a question of order, that a motion to adjourn is pending, and that that motion takes precedence of all other things.

The Chief Justice-The Senator from Missouri is perfectly right. A motion to adjourn has been made, and that motion takes precedence..

Mr. HENDRICKS-The motion to adjourn cannot be made pending a vote, and the vote is not complete until it is announced.

Senator CONKLING-A motion cannot be made pending the roll call.

Several Senators--Certainly not; let the vote be announced.

Senator JOHNSON-I ask that the vote be announced.

The Chief Justice-The vote will be announced. The Clerk will read the roll.

The roll having been read by the Clerk, the Chief Justice rose and announced the result in these words:"On this article there are 35 Senators who have voted guilty and 19 Senators who have voted not guilty. The President is, therefore, acquitted on this article.

No manifestation of sentiment was made on either side of the question. Whatever were the feelings of Senators, members and spectators, they were thoroughly suppressed.

Senator Williams' motion to adjourn till Tuesday, the 26th inst., was then taken up.

Senator HENDRICKS submitted as a question of order, that the Senate was not executing an order already made, which was in the nature and had the

[merged small][ocr errors]

The Chief Justice-The motion that when the Senate adjourn it adjourn to meet at a certain date, cannot now be entertained, because it is in process of executing an order. A motion to adjourn to a certain day, seems to the Chair to come under the same rule, and the Chair will, therefore, decide the motion not in order.

Senator CONNESS-From that decision of the Chair I appeal.

[ocr errors]

The Chief Justice put the question, and directed the Clerk to read the order adopted to-day on motion of Senator Edmunds, as follows:-

Ordered, That the Senate do now proceed to vote on the articles, according to the rules of the Senate.

Senator Howard called for the yeas and nays on the question whether the decision of the, chair should be sustained. The vote was taken and resulted, yeas, 24; nays, 30, as follows:

YEAS. Messrs. Anthony, Bayard, Buckalew, Conkling, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, Ferry, Fessenden, Fowler, Grimes, Henderson, Hendricks, Johnson, McCreery, Morgan, Norton, Patterson (Tenn.), Salsbury, Sherman, Trumbull, Van Winkle, Vickers and Willey-24.

NAYS. Messrs. Cameron, Cattell, Chandler, Cole, Conness, Corbett, Cragin, Drake, Edmunds, Frelinghuysen, Harlan, Howard, Howe, Morrill (Me.). Morrill (Vt.), Morton, Nye, Patterson (N. H.), Pomerov, Ramsey, Ross. Sprague, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton, Wade, Wil liams, Wilson and Yates-30.

So the decision of the Chief Justice was reversed and the order to adjourn over was ruled to be in order.

Mr. HENDERSON moved to amend the order by striking out the words "Tuesday, the 26th inst.," and inserting in lieu thereof the words "Wednesday, the first day of July next."

The amendment was rejected by the following Vote:

YEAS.-Messrs. Bayard, Buckalew, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, Fessenden, Fowler, Grimes, Henderson, Hendricks, Johnson, McCreery, Norton, Patterson (Tenn.), Ross, Saulsbury, Trumbull, Van Winkle, Vickers and Willey-20. NAYS.-Messrs. Anthony, Cameron, Cattell, Chandler, Cole, Conkling, Conness. Corbett, Cragin, Drake, Edmunds, Ferry, Frelinghuysen, Harlan, Howard, Howe, Morgan, Morrill (Me.), Morrill (Vt.), Morton, Nye, Patterson (N. H.), Pomeroy, Ramsey, Sherman, Sprague, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton, Wade, Williams, Wilson and Yates-30.

Mr. MCCREERY moved to amend the order by making it read "adjourn without day."

The question was taken, and the amendment was rejected. Yeas, 6; nays, 47, as follows:

YEAS.-Messrs. Bayard, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, McCreery, and Vickers-6.

NAYS.-Messrs. Anthony, Buckalew, Cameron, Cattell, Chandler, Cole, Conkling, Conness, Corbett, Cragin, Drake, Edmunds, Ferry, Fessenden, Fowler, Freling huysen, Harlan, Henderson, Hendricks, Howard, Howe, Johnson, Morgan, Morrill (Me.), Morrill (Vt.), Morton, Norton, Nye, Patterson (N. H.). Patterson (Tenn.), Pomeroy, Ramsey, Ross, Saulsbury, Sherman, Sprague, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton, Trumball, Van Winkle, Wade, Williams, Wilson, and Yates-47.

Senator BUCKALEW moving to amend the order by providing for an adjournment till Monday, 25th inst. Rejected without a division, and the question recurred on the order as originally offered by Senator Williams, to adjourn the court till. Tuesday, the 26th inst.

The vote was taken, and resulted-yeas, 32; nays, 21, as follows:

YEAS.-Messrs. Anthony, Cameron, Cattell, Chandler, Cole, Conness, Corbett, Cragin, Drake, Edmunds, Frelinghuysen, Harlan, Howard, Howe, Morrill (Me.), Morriйl (Vt.) Morton, Nye, Patterson (N. H.), Pomeroy, Ramsey. Ross, Sprague, Stewart, Sumner, Thayer, Tipton, Van Winkle, Wade, Williams, Wilson and Yates-2.

NAYS-Messrs. Bayard, Buckalew, Conkling, Davis, Dixon, Doolittle, Ferry, Fessenden, Fowler, Johnson, Henderson, Hendricks, McCreery, Morgan, Norton, Patterson (Tenn.), Saulsbury, Sherman. Trumbull, Vickers and Willey-21.

The Chief Justice announced the result, and said:"So the Senate, sitting as a Court of Impeachment, stands adjourned till the 26th inst., at twelve o'clock." The Chief Justice then left the chair, and the members of the House retired to their own chamber.

The spectators who had filled every seat and standing place in the galleries immediately began to pour out into halls and corridors, and the curtain fell on the national drama of impeachment.

The closing scene was not marked by the slightest breach of decorum or of good order.
