Bat a mild degree of interest was displayed in the proceedings to-day; the gallery attend- ance being thin, and the cane-back chairs on the floor being almost deserted. At one o’clock there were but three persons in the Diplomatic gallery—Mr, Harvey, ox- Minister to Portugal; Hon Julius Byng, and a lady im the front seat. Phonographic reporters are the witnesses this morning, giving the counsel an opportu- nity toenlarge upon the usrfulness and accu- racy of the phonographic art, Hereabouts General Butler essayed to find a Passage in the report of a speech of the iresi* dent's in the Sunday Ckrvnicie, and stooping in a short-sighted way toexmine the file,assumed An attitude se comical that everybody laughed, and laughed a little louder when Gen. B has- tily assumed a perpendicalar toascertain what the fun was about. It was expected that General Thomas would be pat on the stand early to-day, but the exam. ination of the 7 honographic experts seems like- ly tooccupy the most part of the day. Among the new witnesses summoned in behalf of the defence is Mr. McCullagh, (Mack,”) of the Cincinnati Commerctal, who is required to tes- tify im regard to an interview held by him with the President. Among the on dits afloat in the galleries is one to the effect that Mr. Stanton will be summonedto appear as a witneess for the President, and that in order to avoid an opening for General Thomas or any of the friends of the President to slip into the ‘War Department during the Secretary's ab- sence, that the Board of Managers will cause summonees to be served upon Gen, Thomas and Gen. Hancock to appear at the same hoar that the President’s counsel summon Mr. Stan. ton to appear. Ithas been stated that the Managers would couclude their evidence to-day or to-morrow, but the prospect is this afternoon that it will run over until next week. Up to halt past two, the time for the recess, the Court was occupied with the reporters, They proved to be a pretty quick-wittod possessed set, and were not thrown greatly off their balance by the sharp questioning to wbich they were subiected. The last witness on the stand before the re- cess was Colonel Moore, the President's confi- dential secretary. The Colonel, for a good- looking man, is extremely modest, and his brethren of the quill and pencil in the Re- porters’ gallery watched his bearing under General Butler's inquisitorial scalpel with some solicitude; but they were set at ease by the first exchange of shots. General B.—« What is your rank ?” Answer—“I am Paymaster with thé rank of Major.” General B. (sharply, and with an oblique look over the chamber as if he “had” the Col- onel.)—“ Did you ever pay any money 1” Answer.—« No; (then correcting himself,) not out of Government funds.” The audience, with a feeling sense of the price of marketing, grinned explosively, and General Butler switched off to another vranch of inquiry. Col. Moore was questioned yery searchingly, to ascertain if the President was responsible for any corrections made by him to the re. porters nots of the President's speech in answer to the delegation from the Philadephia Convention, The answer was that the correc. tiens were verbal and of his own motion, wi'h. out instructions from the President. After the recess, a motion to adjourn over Saturday was lost by a yote of 19 to 28, indica- ting that the Senate is disposed to “stick” until irapeachment is disposed of. Socrety, Etc. ‘oundry M. E. Church pre- sented @ brilliant spectacle yesterday after- noon, the oceasion being the marriage of Major R. C. Parker, of the 12th U.S. infantry, and Miss Ellen, daughter of Capt. T. H. Morgan, of this city. The ceremony was performed by Rey. M. Morgan and three assistants—the mother giving the bride away. The attend- ants to the happy comple were Miss Morgan, a er of the bride, and Major Stacey, Miss Crayton, of Philadelphia, and Capt. May, Miss Thomas, of Philadelphia, and Capt. Smita, and Miss Parker, of Lewistown, Pa., and Capt. Montgomery. The dresses we cannot undertake to describe, but they were allele. gant and in keeping with the interesting oc- casion, and their fine effect was heightened by the number of uniforms in the party, as well as throughout the large audience in the body ofthe church, After a reception at the elegant suburban residence of the bride's father, the party left on a tour to the North, which is in- tended to include the principal cities aud Ni- agara Falls. —— Senator Morgan entertained a distin- guished party at dinner last evening. — Charles Temple Dix, son of the Amer- ican Minister at Paris, and an artist of de- served repute, was married to Mrs. Camilla O. Watson, of Edinburgh, at All Saints’ Church, in London, on the 9th ult., in the presence of a large concourse of fashionable people, including many Americans At the conclusion # ful! dress Teception was held at the American Embassy. —— Mrs. General Gaines is building an ele- gant mansion in New York, on the east side of and overlooking Central Park. — Captain Gaasden, long and favorably known to the traveling world as the master of the steamer Aragv, is soon to Ivad to the hyme- nial altar Miss Corse, of New York. —— Dickens is adyertised to sail for England on the 23d inst, —— Count Sartiges, formerly French Minis. ter here, and now the representative of the Em- peror Napoleon at Rome, has recently pug- chased a clayecis, a remarkable musical in. strament, which belonged to Donna Olympia, niece of Pope Innoceat X., and is ornamented with sculptured work and paintings of that period. The Count es to present it to the Conservatoire de Musique at Paris, Tux Pustic Deut STATEMENT Wiil be is sued to-morrow, and as we have already stated will show a slight increase in the publie debt. REPORTS FROM THE PLAINS are to the effect that there will be a large attendance of Indians at the approaching council with the Peace Commissioners at Fort Laramie, Po.iricat.—Major Ben Perley Poore has been elected Alternate Delegate from tne Fifth District of Massachusetts to Chicago, —The Philadelphia papers announce the names of two aspirants for the seat of the Hon, Chas, O'Neil, member of Nar pere from the 2d District, Pa, Mr. O’Niel has already served three cle in Congress, and should he decline another nomination, either John Price Wether- ‘lor John Blakely will recetve the nomina. tion, Mr. We ll is & retired merchant, very wealth: and served #& member of meow Councils of Phil for a namber of John Blak ‘printer by at is at present one of aye of the Phil- delphin Evening Star. | He is 8 prominent mem; ber of the Trade's Union of adel phia, and his chances for the nomination are being urged chonely Hepeolians nn uaetee y * ‘The Lotisiana Democratic Central Com. mitteehave withdrawn the ticket nominated by them, and recommend the meeting ot a ‘ward clubs to choose 0 sme to April th, | Tae VITNESeEs.—Subpenas for witnesses have beem served by the defense in the impeach- ment trial upon W.

Sheridan, New York, porter; A.G. Stone, New York; Col. W.C, Moore, President’s Private Secretary. Ex-SexaTor Foster, of Connecticut, is nomed as likely to be selected to fill the seat on the bench of the Court of Claims, made vacant by the death of Judge Wilmot. How much foundation there is for the surmise we have no means of knowing, but it is certain that he would fillthe place creditably aud satisfac. torily, and his friends argue that there would be no difficulty in securing his confirmation in the Senate should the romination be sent in. ‘We regard this as doubtful, however, under existing circumstances. Mr. Joun Hitz, who has for some time past very acceptably represented in Washington the Government of the Swiss Confederation as Consul General, presented yesterday to the Secretary of State his credentials as Political Agent of that gevernment. This office super- sedes that of Consul General, and is of a higher rank than that office. The members of the Legation will be presented to Secretary Sew- ard on Monday next by Mr. Hitz, THE Secretary of State has selected Hon- Ward H. Lamon, late Marshal of the District of Columbia, to represent the United States in the settlement of the special interests pending between the Russian and American Govern- ments. It isnot yet known that Mr. Lamon will accept the commission. . Tue Wire Hovse.—The regular meeting of the Cabinet was held to-day and attended by all the members.
