Neither house Of Congress was in session

General Rousseau and several members OF

The Star this afternoon says:
"The bears in impeachment made ire
mendous rally last evening, and for time
had it all their own way, ct the leading
hotels and other points where transactions
in the market are carried on. Friends OF
the President, who were supposed to know
q thing or two, were betting wild on acquit-
tal-two to one, ten to one, one hundred to
one. Later at night the bulls swept every
thing, and professed to be particularly anx-
ious to find any party to bet on acquittal.
To-day it has been q see-saw operation, the
bears being uppermost one hour and the
bulls the next. Should the excitement in
crease in the ratio it has for the last forty
eight hours, by Tuesday it will be up to
fever heat and something over. Undoubt-
edly Tuesday will be the most exciting day
in Washington since the surrender OF Lees
army"
i The Express says:
There is good deal of talk about town
to-day upon the probable result Of the i'm
parchment trial. The public pulse seems
to be somewhat excited, but preponderance
of opinion seems to be on the side Of acquit-
tai. A gentleman usually well-informed
upon current topics, and who has opportu-
mites of knowing whereof he speaks, stated
this afternoon that senator's had disposed OF
the question of Stanton's removal, and will
make no question about the Presidents
rightto make the removal. The point about
which they are now concerned is about the
ad interim appointment and the letter OF
authority to General Thomas. The sena-

removal are not so well satisfied that the
Executive had right to make the al int

ever, that this point will be considered
high crime or misdemeanor." --~-,
Z The above paragraphs are telegraphed tt
illustrate the utter uncertainty existing
here regarding the result. In well-au
thenticated conversation the President Ii
represented to have said in answer to
question regarding Bingham's assertion
that he would not obey the Senate's man
date, "Why should not obey, if the form'
of the Constitution are complied with 7 L
senators do not act justly they are re
sponsible not to me, but to the people
The people, who hold the sovereign power
have placed me over one department, with
all its duties and responsibilities, and have
placed senator's, also, with grave response
bilities, and with constitutional power t
try impeachment and render Judgments
thereon. If they misuse OF abuse this o.
any other power, the people alone can hole
them to account. The people having EN-
powered them to try impeachment, it is no
for the party tried to set aside their Judg

their agents for any breach Of their grea
