WASHINGTON, May 2O-The Senate was
not in session.
House-Without transacting any business,
the House adjourned till Saturday,
The impeachment managers have de.
manded all kilograms sent hence on Fri
day,
Ross say on the fourteenth that he would
vote for the eleventh article.
Some seventy-fye private kilograms sent
hence were furnished to the managers.
People complain because the cashier OF
the First National Bank allowed Mr.. Butler
to examine private accounts kept by the
bank.
President Johnson was in a Masonic pro-
cassion to-day on foot.
James Buchanan is worse.
The Committee on Commerce reported to
the House today a bill putting Pass 8
rOutre, at the mouth of the Mississippi river,
into the hands of James 3. McClintock and
John X. Scott, upon condition that they
keep the channel cleared out to the depth OF
eighteen feet, in which case they will be
allowed to charge tonnage duty On vessels
passing through that channel OF thirty cents
Der ton Of registered measurement on vessels
drawing fourteen feet and upward. They
are allowed eighteen months TO comply with
the conditions of the bill, and whether the
required depth of channel is obtained is to
be determined by the engineer corps Of the
United States. ..s4 .s.-.7
The engineer department are opposed to
the bill, but as the government has for
years been appropriating money to inn
prove this channel without success the conf
mittee are disposed TO favor the project Of
the parties who will undertake to deepen it
for the privilege of charging a specific toll.
It is not intended to ask the House to act on
the bill however before next session. j z
1t is stated that the managers have sum
moned, or rather requested, senator Hen
derson to appear before them. Mr.. Hen
derson wrote them letter doubling their
right to interrogate q Senator, saving that
