Alarge ond enthusisstic meeting of tho Re- publicana of the Seventecnth Ward woa held last ovening, al No. 311 Larrabeo street, in re- sponro to acall of tho Ropublican Central Com- mitteo, b The old:timo Ropablicans wero out In good numbers, and tho meeting wwas tho most respect- able in size and conduct thut Las beeu held for several years. l'hera wero in atiendanco also quito & bevy of the riotous and rowdyisy wembera of tho Jeffersonian Club of the ward, who for sovoral weeks past liavo kerved ay o reproach tothe intolligovce, decorum, and gen- oral chiaracter of that section of the city. Their attendanco was promptod by the Opposition par- ty, ood thoir purpoes was to defeat the ostab- lLshing of a Republiean Club by stirring np dis- order. And thero wers presont, nleo, soveral Wwho years ago woro recoguized a8 Licpublicans, Lut had strayed away and bocome politically de woralized, They wero thero, alko, In the intor- ost of tho Opfosition party, or at least Mr. Heamg, and lost no opportunity to prompt and promoto the upperranco of o want of unaniwity in the meeting. ln fact, thoy freely confessed that thoy were personal nnd political friends of Mr. Hesing, sod that their friendship to him had prompted therr activu in advocating the forma~ tion of AN INDETENDENT CLU'T. rather than n lepubiican one, which thoy said wad a catchipenny programmo which had been arranged awong themselves in the ward,—with tho understanding that 1t was to ba adberad to througbout the city,—tho object bemng to allure Kepubiicaus from their old party lines and into the ranks of theenewy. Notwithetauding thoso facts, Liowover, tho meetiug was in overy way creditablo, aud characterizod throughout by a remnrkable degree of Larmony. John Hettinger called tho meoting to order, and stalod its object to Lo to organizo a Licpub- licon Clud for the ward. TUEODONT KARLE was called to tho chair, but ho respectfully do- clined the houor, 1{e regarded the comiug von- test a purely local ons, and Lo was opposcd to in- troducing natioral politica in tho campaigu, ifo wantod an Indopondont Club organizod. Dr. Goiger was then loudly calleld for, bt he, too, dectined, as ho eaid ho was liable to be cailed away at any moment, ALD. SCUAFESER was noxt called, Ho took the chnir smid ap- planee. Ho said he lind no kles when coming to tho meoting of being callod on to proside. IHo was in favor of organizing, as thore wayn grost worlc to be_done. ‘lhe caming campaign was Lut & proiude to tho nationu: battls of o year hence. Ho was opposed o any independent or protonded roform movement, and in favor of oversbody showing bis true colors. Tho so- called mdo%oudum organizations, dating back to 169, had brought ull tho troubles upon tho City and County ~Govornment it was now Iaboring under. The Opposition party was op- pusied 10 nothing but tho Repubhesy party; it hind been and was irresponsiblo, aud it nas ahout timo tho pooplo rose itf thoir might and crushod it out of existonce. 1o wau coutident that, with proper orgunization, tho Soveutoenth Ward would return to its_old Republican majoritics this rall, [Applauzo.

Tho Chair roplisd that he had done his duty in_his ruliog, as Lo understood it. The moel- jug hod been callod to organize a Ropublican Clab in_obodioncs 30 an expressed wish of tho Ropublican Central Committoo. It was folly to think of mfiluhmg an Independont Club,” In the future there would be but two parties, tho Rupublican and Opposition or Democratic, and bo thoughit it was about time the citizens of tho ward wero choosing betwoen the two, [Ap. plause. | : Mr. Arnold followed in s epoech in favor of organiziug a Republican Club, Ticory Myor wanted to know by whom tho mcoting hed been called, for Lo remembered ug signod the call, o Chair repllod that it had beeu called by the Ceutral Committos, acd Lo would not enter- tain any motion adming to prevent its purpose, If theio wers suy presont who wanted to or- ganize an Independent Club, he hoped thoy would surrender the room they occupled, and ho assured thow that the Republicans would not in- terfero, [Applause.] Meusnu.

GARDNER wanted thn Club to exprens ita preference as to tha moda of calling thn next Couuty Convon- tion, It waa time, he added, that tho Cinb, i It wern really & political organization, should begin o mako itielf folt in affairs. 1o movod that o committes of five be appointed to con-ult with the Opnosition County Committes and teorosent to them tho oginion of the Cinb a4 to tho way the Conven- tion rhanld Le ealied, ke Geary said ho was opposed to any othor method than tho ofd-fashioned onn—the prima- rien. It might bo snid that it was corrupt, but wthor wasa sero equally vo. 'f'om Foley wantod to know about THE COUNTY COMMITTRE, nnd asked Wash Hesing abont it, Mr. Hering said that the Committes consirted of twenty-five membern.—ono from csen ward, fivo at Inrge,—that they held o meeting Vednes- day niglit lant and elected Fbil Couley Choir- wian, aod that another miesting would bo held thia ovenivg, st wlich all wero iuvited to be Mikn Gieary wontod the Committee iustructad to adviro tho County Committen to call tho Cone santion by pruuaries, It was, ho esid, tho only popular way, 1.

Tlia wan open to the objoction of connivance. Anoiher mothod was for the Central Commit- teo to constitnto s committeo of five iu each ward, and to clarge them with tho selvetion of thie delegates. A third El:m was the old and populsr oun of primarien by which the yeople misht express their will, It had been QbJDCLEil that thero might bo fraud. bat the Bpesker thought tusi this could be avoided by baving the Central Commit- teo appoint threo judgesof clection, a clark, and threa or fivo challeogers for cach poll, 1 progier men wera appointed, Le saw 1o renson why the i iess ehould not be fairly conducted. Mr. Gardner said that ot tho last meeting of tho County Committeo tle exprassion of opurion was 10 fuvor of somo other method than prima- rieo. The suggestion was made that the dele. gnu:]a bo solocted at n mans-mecting i each navd, Mr. Gardner's motion for a committee was then carried. Mr, Bluohm was in favor of not instructing the Committce, but of Laving them coneult, and thien report to thoe Cluh. Mr. Qarduor wanted an expreesion of the Club on the snbject. Mr. Foly moved that the Committeo bo instructed to reprasent to the Central Committen that it was tho opintan of tho Ctub that the Con- vention ought to be called in TUE OLL WAY—BY PRIMARIES, Tho Committeo was theu mado to conmist of Mesnro.

While the Committee was out Mr. Miteholl occuplod the time by some remarks in favor of Comminsioner .onos, urging that he had been tried, and was the regular nominee.
