Speaker Coltax yesterday afternoon gave direc. tions that the Liptomatie Gallery shoutd be re- served for the Diplomatic Oorps, and the gal Ierv int uthwest corner for the families o Ss anc Members. the other galleries being Jett open to the public Ly balt-pas: elevem o'clock the galleries Were densely crowded, every seat being occu- pia every inch of standiag room ia the door wiys where a glimpse at the floor conld be obtained was filled. The gallery reserved for the families of Senators and members was alto crowded, long before the House was called to or¢er, and many were unable to gain admis- sion therein. In the Diplomaticigaiiery were seated several representatives of the various foreign legations and ladies. Mre. Qolfax, witb Dirs. and Miss Matthews, mother and sister of the Speaker, occupied seats in the ladies’ gallery. The Reporter’s gallery, as usual on éuch occasions, was crowded with a number ot «dead beats” whorepresent no ps- pers, but manage to receive many privileges uccorded to bona fide members of the press. On the floor of the House a large number of chairs were arranged in the rear of the back row of desks for the members of the Senate. At twelve o'clock the House was called to order, and Dr. Boynton, the Ubaplain, offered a Jervent prayer, making special reference to the Proceedings of to-day, and praying for the in- coming President and Vice President, that they might first remember Almighty God, and so rule over this nation as to promote the good of the whole people and the honoraad glory of G At the reading of the journal, Mr. Farns- worth of Illinois, asked unanimous consent that the ladies occupy the Cloak Room, and no objection being made they were admitted, and afew minutes thereafter rot only the Uleak Room but the space back of the desks, were crowded with ladies and gentlemen. By bailf-past twelve o’clock at least three hundred ladies were upon the floor of the House, and many of them occupying the seats ot members. The confusion and disorder in the House was very great, and the Speaker was compelled to suspend business and request tho-e persons who had been admitted to the floor by the courtesy of the House to cease con- yersation. This quieted the fair chatterers for ashort time, but they were soon as busily en- gaged ss tver in entertaining the members, and the murmur of a thousand busy tongues and an occasional peel of merry laughter could be beard above ail else in the Hall. At five minutes before 1 o'clock the Speaker directed the Clerk to read the rule providing for the seats of members, Senators and officers of the two Houses, when the electoral vote for President and Vice President is to be counted. which ruie provides that the first five rows of seats in the southeast coruer of the Hall shall be set apart forthe Senate. These seats were occupied by members and a number of ladies, and the commotion ameng them when the Spenker directed them to vacate the seats created much amusement. At one o'clock precisely, the Senate appeared, headed by Sergeant-at-Arms Brown, tue Secre- tary, Mr Gorham, and Hon. B. F. Wade. President pro tem. The Senators walked arm im arm to the seats assigned to them on the Tight of the Speaker, and acting Vice President Wade took the chair; Speaker Colfax occupy- ing a seat upon his left, Senator Uonkling of N. Y., Representatives Pruyn of N. Y., and Wilson of lowa, the tellers to ceunt the vote then came forward and took their seats at the Clerk’s desk, with Secretary Gor- ham ot the Senate, and McPherson, Clerk of the Houre. Vice President Wade firs: panded to the tellers the certificate of the vote of New Hampshire, which they read aloud. annonac- ing that the five votes had been given for Ulyses S. Grant for President, and Schuyler Colfax tor Vice President. Then followed tne announcement of the Electoral votes given tor Grant and Colfax,in the following order Massachusetts, 12, Rhode Island, +; Connecti- cut, 6; Vermont, 5; Pennsylvania, 25; North Carolina, %; South Carolina, 6; Pennessee, 1).

Mr. Mullins, of Tenn., reqaested that the cer- uficate accompanying the return be read. which was done, when Mr. M. objected w counting the vote from that State. Mr. Prayn, (one of the tellers,) by direction of the Chair, read the joint rule No. 22, which Provides that in case an objection 1s raised to the count of the vote of any State, the Senate shall retire to their chamber and decide the same without debate, and the House to do the same. Mr. Eldridge insisted that the rule was in direct contradiction to the Constitution of the United States, and demanded the reading of the twelfth amendment. The Chair decided that the rule bad been adopted by both Honses, and a qfestion of or- der could not therefore be entertained. Mr. E. B, Washburne hoped the gentleman from Tennessee would withdraw his objecti+ Mr. Sumner hoped the counting of the vote would be proceeded with, and the case of Lou- istana decided afterwards.
