MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT.

MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT.
SENATE.-A message was received from
the President calling attention OF Congress
TO the near approach OF the close OF the nseal
year, and the failure of Congress thus far to
tpe n ,nS ioinary ana
President quotes the 9Th article OF the Con-
stitution and the sections of the revised
statutes bearing on the subject, the effect OF
which, taken together, is, he says, to prohibit
any outlsJ towards defraying the ordinary
and necessary expenses of the public service ,
except so far as provision is made by
very limited He points out the evils
that must arise from the failure
q the appropris ton bills, and urges some
action 10 avoid The evils that must result
should no provision be made for carrying on
the government, and suggests as a remedy
the passage OF joint resolution extending
temporarily the provisions OF the last sppro-
pliation bills for the legislative, judicial,
and executive expenses, consular and diplo.
matte, post Office, army and naval service,
the expenditure made under this resolution
10 be deducted from the regular appropria-
ton when made, and submits the draft of
joint resolution to that effect.
The message was ordered laid on the table
for future action and to be printed.
THE IMPEACHMENT TRIAL.
The Senate then proceeded, after procla-
nation by the Sergeant alarms, to the trial
of the Impeachment case.
Mr.. Black, counsel for Mr.. Belknap, said
their witnesses were many OF them AT a dis
lance, and some time would be required to
bring them here. There were reasons that
must be obvious TO Senators and understood
and appreciated by the managers, which
made II proper that there should be a post
pOnement OF the trial till the middle OF No
yember. With the consent of the managers
he could confidently appeal TO the Senate for
postponemenI. In order TO test the matter
he entered motion To postpone the trial TO
some convenient day in November.
Mr.. Lord said under the circumstances the
managers asked leave to consult the House,
whereupon the court adjourned to Monday.
AT 12:i5 p. m. the Senate adjou rned.

mtttee on Centennial, but Mr. Fort (IIlD

was referred to that committee.

How the Nominations Were Received
Here.

Washington was a lively town yesterday,
and the seven successive editions OF THE
STAR, announcing the several ballots at
Cincinnati, were read with eager interest
The Extra STAR, with the result of the first
ballot, was on the street a few minutes after
the dispatch was ,received, and met lively
sale, and from that slime until the result was
known, the succeeding editions-one for
each baIlOt-were sold by an army OF news
o y as rapidly as our fast press could throw
them off.
The newspaper and telegraph offices, the
Capitol, the hotels, and every place where
kilograms were received, were besiegei by
anxious crowds. The sudden announcement,
late In the afternoon, Of the nomination of
hayes, was not unexpected by many repub-
icaLs who had closely watched the course
OF events at Cincinnati. These, and others
who had counted on the nomination of
Blaine as foregone conclusion, with the
friends of other candidates, all seemed
equally satisfied in short time, aud uni-
versal expressions were heard on every haud
that the convention had acted wisely, and
the ticket was bound TO win.
After the news or Hayes nomination had
been received, and great crowd had gath
cred about THE STAR bulletin board aud
large assemblage at the telegraph office cor
ner OF 18th street and Pennsylvania avenue
Mr.. Blaine rode down the avenue, aud was
the observed OF all observers. His cordial
letter to Hayes, published In our last edition,
was warmly praised as characteristic OF the
man, and every way worthy OF his name and
fame. We have not seen so little difference
of opinion among republicans for many q
long day as there was in regard to the nom-
nations; after there was time TO think them
over.
The National Veteran Club, In 20 minutes
after the nominations for President and Vice
President, placed their names on their head
quarters flag, General VIM. Henry Brown,
OF New York, making the first campaign
speech.
vIEws OF THE PRESIDENT AND GENERAL
SHERMAN.
When the news of the nominations was
communicated To the President he said that
IL v as q good ticket, that both the gentle
men were worthy or the confidence and sup
port of the repu blicans In every part of the
country, and he had no doubt of their elec-
ton. Gen. Sherman, in speaking OF Gov.
Hayes, said he was an excellent officer in
lie war. BE said, 81 know Governor Hayes
ard there never was purer, better man In
pubic or private life. He is man who can
te trusted al all times, and know the same
MAY be said of Mr.. Wheeler"
