THE SENATE.--The Senate is a less numerous body than the House of
Representatives. The presiding officer is addressed as "Mr. President"
or "Mr. Speaker," the title varying in different States. There is also
a chief clerk, with assistants, who keeps the records; a
sergeant-at-arms, who preserves order on the floor; a doorkeeper, who
has charge of the senate chamber and its entrances, and a number of
subordinate officers.

The Senate has two functions not belonging to the House of
Representatives: 1. When the governor nominates persons for appointment
as officers of the State, unless the Senate advises and consents to the
nominations, the appointments are void; 2. When the House of
Representatives presents articles of impeachment against an officer of
the State, the Senate sits as a court to try the charges.

HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES.--The House of Representatives is often called
the popular branch of the legislature. It is sometimes designated as
the "House." The title of the presiding officer is "Mr. Speaker." The
other officers usually have the same titles and duties as those of the
Senate.

In many States bills raising revenue, and in some States bills making
appropriations, must originate in the House of Representatives. This
body also has the sole power of impeachment. Usually when charges
affecting the official conduct of an officer of the State are brought
before the legislature, the House of Representatives appoints a
committee to investigate the charges and report. If the report
warrants further action, the House adopts charges of official
misconduct, or of high crimes and misdemeanors in office. This
proceeding is called an _impeachment_.

The Senate sits as a court of impeachment, hears the evidence, listens
to the argument by the managers and the counsel for the accused, and
then condemns or acquits. The judgment
