Imuenrliswiit Trial.
Wahiimiton. April 27. The galleries
ol tlie (senate chamber were again crowd
id to-day, two-thirds of the audience be
ing ladles. At 12 1'. M. the legislative
business was suspended and the impeach
ment trial begun. Lord submitted a mo
tion that tlie evidence relating to (he ques
tion of jurisdiction of the Senate sitting as
a court ol Impeachment be given belorc
the arguments relating thereto are heard,
and if such plea Is overruled, that the de
fendant be required to answer the ai tides
of luipeiiihmeut within two days, and the
House to reply, if they deemed it neces
sary; within two days and that the tilal
proceed tho neat day after the joining of
issue.
Carenti r, of omntri for the accused,
moved lUl the trial Us potpoueil until
the first Monday of December next, and
asked that the time lor Lite discussion of
this motion be Used nt two hours for each
side: request granted 18 to 10.
lllalr addrcsM-d the Senate iu favor ol
the motion. He nreilcd that it was Inmo-
sllile for the Scnato to do Justice to the
great mid imputtaut qtie,lluu Involved In
tin i ca-e. on account oi ii.oiutvnnccu stage
ol tlie session, ai d counsel had no time
to make Investigations or for perfecting
thi'in-elws to argue till great question
igatn. The House wa even now making
iui-ti;atiiufw'ith a view of presenting
additional aitleles of Impeachment, and
tl nut additional charges weletohe mad i
cim-el for the accused wauled lliein line.
1'liev Invited the closest scrutiny into the
ollicial conduct ot the licensed, lie reljr
i til to his life, and stand he had wen his
way iuin the council of the uatiop on the
Itel'd f battle. Another reason why the
senate -lionM postpone the trial was that
it count cut! i- elf directly with political
pait'n- that weiealinosl eomuiittod to Ids
de-tin. thin.
Judge Hlack followed In support of the
motion to puitpoite. He spoke an hour,
and dwelt miiiiii length upon the
political excitement against the accused,
contending it wa so intense that each
p.uty was committed to his ruin. It was
lniHithlu for lilui to have a fair tilal,
though he mighc not have a fair trial,
though he might havoiiu hone-t one. He
al-o intimated that hi defense would be
paiutul; tint nothing but feeling the abso
lute loss of his teputatlun could move him
to it.
The Senate retired at 4 o'clock to con
sult on I lie motion to postpone the im
peacutiiiMit trial. At 4:1)0 the Senators re
turned, and the President pio tern an
noticed that the counsel for the respondent
for a contiiiuaiico of the trial until Decem
ber had been oven tiled.
The Seuato sitting ns acouit adjourned

San Kl!AlCl?CO. April 27. On Tuesday
mottling Andy Tyler, a saloon keeper at
wa-iilui;tou coiners, committed ulclilc.
Tyler lost his wile about a year ago. which
had caused him much despondency, and
this, together with other circumstances
may account for the deed. On the morn
ing mentioned he went out to tho barn and
attempted lirst to sever the jugular vein
with a oroken bottle. Falllii'' in this at
tempt, but leaving a hortiblo wound, he
next tried to hang hlme!t with a rope,
but'hU feet touched the floor, and he was
again unsuccessful: Tlf-n he got an ax,
and proceeded to cash his forehead, strik
ing himself pcrliaps lilty times, cutting
tils lace in a most gnastiy manner, fan
Itirr in tlie third mode, he, in the most dc
teimined mauner,tookn razor and tiled to
sever the I.ugu veins In both arms. Again
lie tailed, and finally with dctct initiation
and will which were most surpi isiug, lie
took a razor, and with a tremendous ellort
cut his throat, laying it open clear into the
spinal column, and leaving a piece of the
razor I hue. It was one ol the most de
teiecl cases of suieido on record.
