...tion. Beyond the injunction that the Senate, when sitting for the trial of impeachments, should be "on oath, "the Constitution gave no instruction to fix or ascertain thecharacter of the procedure, the nature of the duty assigned to thespecially-organized court, or the distribution of authority between theChief-Justice and the Senate.
