They are said to be somewhat voluminous. One report, it is asserted, as far ae written up, makes four hundred folios of legal Gap, and the other will be no less lengthy. They will cover entirely the substance of the testimony from both Sandpoints, The testimony and records embrace twelve hundred printed pages, eile It ie said the committee will find it impossible to in- troduee their report before Monday, aa the meeting of Congress to-morrow is but the reassembling after a re- Cees, The business before the House at the time of the last adjournment'will be resumed as if no recess had taken place. When the Speaker's gavel announced the arrival of the time appointed for the temporary ad- Journment, the question before the Rouse was Mr. Sohenck’s motion to reconsi the vote ordering the yeas and nayson Mr. Covode’s motion to suspend the voles Im order to Intreduco bie resolution to allow the Judiciary Committee to present and have printed ‘their report and the views of the minority. Previously the House had acquiesced in the motion of Mr. Logan, Instructing the Judiciary Commiltec to report forthwith to the House all the testimony taken in the case. This ‘was subseqnently amended, at the suggestion of Mr. Btevens, ordering the printing of the testimony. Mr, Drought to a conclusion and the committee discharged, ‘Wilson claimed that this action of the House should be hough the Speaker suggested that as the motion ‘Was privileged it was not made. After gome irregular Proceeding Mr, Wilson was recognized, but Mr, Covode introduced his reselution, on which a quorum did not vote. To prevent an official disclosure of this fact Mr. Schenck’s motion to reconsider the yeas and nays was Introduced. This being the conaition of things at the Ume of adjournment, the impeachment question is stil) before the House and will be the first business to be @isposed of. ‘In view of the inability of the Judiciary Committee—being unable to comply with the re- Quirements of the House—a postponement of the question will be necesssary. As the majority have it in their power to lay the matter over until a more con- venient time for the committee, It is, therefore, pro- Dable that the House will defer the presentation of the Feport on impeachment until such time as the com- mittee may desire. Monday, as I have stated, is the @ay vow fixed upon. In the event of the majority in- meting apon an immediate disposition of the question, some exciting scenes may be anticipated. This evening ‘the general feeling manifested 1s to assemble and ad- Journ over until Monday next. This will obviate all controversy, and give the Judiciary Committee all the time they ask to complete their labors, ‘The Business Before the H. tatives. ‘The business of the House will to-morrow be resumed at the point where it was interrupted last July by the taking of a recess until the 2ist inst, The new members may, however, be previously sworn in, as sucb qualifi- Cation is a question of privilege. Speaker Colfax bas not yet formed the stending com- mittees, further than the few already appointed, nor bas be sntimated to any one what will be bis course in tne Premises. There seenia'to be more diMeulty now than Sormerly in arranging them. Views of Chief Justice Chase on Specie Pay- mente—A Uniform Currency Throughout the World and the Extension ef our Banking System. Chief Justice Chase leaves this city on Friday toat- tend court in Baltimore, in connection with his profes- mopal duties. The Chief Justice gives considerable attention to financial matters, He thinks the time not far @istant when the government will have returned to specie payments, w be considers all the Cnited Btates bonds will be redeomed tn specie. Un the subject of a uniform currency the world ever he ie at present much interested. The Currency Convention held in Europe, mainly through the energy and perseverance of Lous Napoleon, resulting in an arrangement with all the principal Powers—Germany, Russia and England alone excepted—to adopt a uniferm currency, gives the Chief Justice great satisfaction. ‘There is already much talk that Congress, during the eoming session, will join this Convention, and adopt the Freoch five-franc piece as the basis of the new system. ‘On this subject the Chief Justice suggests that a twenty franc piece, corresponding to the French Napoleon, should pe called « ‘Union, aud ten franc piece an “Eagle.” The reagon be assigns for the adoption of this Bomenciature are, that the word ‘‘Union’’ would recog. wize the uniform currency in force by all the great Powers of the world, and the Eagle figures prominently as & representative emblem among different nations. Germany is expected, also, soon to join the Convention, which will compe! England to forego her old fogy notions, abolish her abominabie system, and adopt « currency which the great maritime interests of the world de- mand. The Chief Justice is alse of the opinion that the present banking system of the United States will become general, and that the world will not only reap the bene- fits of a uniform currency, but also « universal bank system. He considers the experiment which the pree- ent plan, recognized in the United States, has been sub- Jected te display ite practicability, and the time is not far distant when ite utility will be more largely tested. The great intesnational industries of the globe, he Considers, require some general system of and ‘the success of our ows, and its advaace upon ol principles, be looks upon as the one most readily to be extended to comprebead ona large scale the financial transactions ef nations as it has bees tried in the busi ‘ness operations of our own States The Gaveties of the Capital. Speaker Colfax's peblic reseptions will be resumed ta January next. The gayeties of the season in the Capital promise greater briliieecy than ever before, During no preceding seasien of Congress have so large a nem- Der of members occupied residences of their own. It ta, therefore, anticipated that the number of private festivities will be largely increased. ‘The Violations of the Tax Law on Whiskey and Tebacco. Intormation has beem received here that the Bub.

That portion of the Cretans and the’r allies who were in insurrection refused to send commis- siowers, and on the Slet of October the Grand Vizier published a proclamation, notifying the Cretans that the truce expired on that day.
