ATE-This body resumed the Belknap
trial. Judge Black, of
the counsel for the accused, said after
with his colleagues and
client he was satisfied it was outside
of the limits of a physical possibility
for this cause to be tried in this
weather; besides, a large number of

them here by the 9th of July. There
were reasons which must be obvious
to members of the Senate and were

part of the House by the trial
should be postponed until about the
middle of November. He appealed to
the managers to say whether they had
any desire to press the trial on the 9th
of July. If they would agree to a
postponement he felt confident that
the Senate would accede to the re-
quest. He therefore moved that
further trial of the case be con-

November next. Manager Lord said

that it could be disposed of Whenever
a quorum should be present. The
request of the managers for leave to
confer with the House was granted and
the Senate sitting as a court OF I'M
parchment adjourned until Monday
next.
