The Reconstruction Acts.

WASHINGTON, March l3.-ln the Supreme
Court to-day, a new bill, to test the constltu-
tionality of .hc Reconstruction acts of Congress,
relating to the State Of Georgia, was offered,
when Mr.. Carpenter OF Wisconsin, appeared in
behalf Of Stanton and others, and objected to
the bill on the ground that no one was author
lied to appear for the State of Geor-
gia, contending that Mr.. Jenkins was not the
Governor Of that State.
The Court took the bill aud objection under
ADJUSTMENT and will probably render verdict on
Monday.
Ii may be mentioned in this connection
that decision in the McArdle case, argued
last week, will be rendered, on Monday week
and it is the prevailing opinion among the
leading lawyers that it will be adverse to the
constitutionality Of the Reconstruction Acts
It is generally believed that the Court stands
four to five on the opinion, and the decision
will be rendered before the act passed by Con-
gress, yesterday, can become law, or effect its
bearing

WASHINGTON, D. c. March l3.-Al y
O clock today the Senate galleries were densey
crowded with spectators, and the floor by mem

caused considerable comment and some indIg-
nation Oh the part Of the Radicals. The gal

not much fashion or elegance is displayed
The Senators occupy their accustomed seats,
and ia the rear are one hundred and ffty chairs
for the use of the members Of the House.
Messra. Stanbery, Curtis and Nelson appear
ed for the President
At one clock, Chief Justice Chase entered
the Senate Chamber and took the Presidents
chair, when the Court was declared, by procla-
nation, to be open and the journal Of the last
days proceedings were read.
During the reading Of the Journal the mem
bcrs of the House, headed by the Managers,
appeared at the entrance door of the Senate,
and after waiting ten minutes walked in, arm
in arm One Of the Managers announced the
absence of Messrs. Stevens and Butler.
The roll was then called, for the purpose of
swearing such Senators as were absent at the
last meeting OF the Court.
An hour was then spent in routine business.
