CoNeREss.-An adjournment was reached on
Saturday last, after session of 26 days, spent
in such legislation as seemed needful to guard
the public and private interests from executive
encroachment on the one hand, and the obsti-
macy and selfish rapacity of the departed rebel
Zionist on the other. The subject of impeach-
ment was discussed with much earnestncss, and
the Judiciary Committee, in whose hands the
matter is left, is authorized to sit during recess
The most important of its labors were bestow-
ed upon the supplemental reconstruction BILL
The difficulty of fixing upon another meeting
was at length arranged by an agreement to
come together on the first Wednesday of July,
proUided q quorum shall be present, ready
for BUSINESS This is little contingent, and
looks al little singular from the stand point of
an outsider. Something has been said, how
ever, about apprehensions and admonitions ex-
pressed by Gen. Grant, and the posture of this
matter may have something to do with a
possible contingency. Perhaps, viewed in this
light, much of the singularity of the vote would
be relieved. Without cause, no quorum would
probably be expected, but should difficulty in
administering the laws arise, necessity for the
assembling of Congress might lead to very
prompt meeting of that body.
The Senate is convened in extraordinary ses-
sion, to act upon the nomination of civil Off
GERS by the President, that will continue some
10 or II days.

the resolution by the bare constitutional major
ity. Senator Walker, who had previously op.
posed the resolution, now voted for it. stating

The vote was strictly party one, except that
Mr.. Coombs, of Highland, Republican, voted
VIII OciliOCIdCJ. lnO OChoeOAo,
Messrs Golden and Hurd, were absent.
The announcement of the resolution carried,
was a signal of shout from the large audi
ence, that must have rung dismally in the ears
of those who voted in opposition to the meas
ure. -.
The suffrage resolution as it came from the
Senate, was taken up in the House on We'd
nesday and the afternoon session spent in its
discussion. An amendment was adopted that
