He should make no factious opposition. The competency of the nominee would be the main question in deciding his vote, with one or two excep- tions. He would not vote for any man wi had changed his politics a day or two before the election for the purpose of getting office. The vote being taken on the nomination of James M. Carlisle, for Corporation Attorney, he received 14 votes, and was declared to be confirmed unanimously. E J. Klopfer was confirmed as Bookkeeper by a vote of 10 to4 The nomination of Andrew J. Locke was rejected by a vote of 10 to4 Mr. Dove inquired what the objection was tothe nominee? Why didn’t the opposition come out openly and state their grounds of bsp He objected to this fighting in the bush. Mr. Busey said no threats of chatbeneet which he understood had been mado, woul intimidate him. He understood that the nom- inee was in bad health, and he was evidently unfit for the office. Mr. Dove said it had been the custom here- tofore, when changes have been made, to have a committee of investigation, and contended that it was the proper course in this case. He would like to hear a repetition of Mr. Busey’s remarks about ‘‘threats."’ Mr Busey replied that he didn’t allude to him, (Mr e) Mr. Dove gave notice of a motion of recon- sideration of the rejection of Mr. Locke at the next meeting. The nomination of Joseph E. Rawlings, as Commissioner of Lmprovoments in the first dis- trict was rejected by a vote of 10 to 4 Mr Dove gave notice of reconsideration at the next meeting. Mr. Busey gave asa reason for voting against the nominee that he had changed his politics lately. Mr Smith said he would very frankly state that he objected te the nominee on the ground ig went the lights rockets absolutely refused to £ up inthe direction assigned for them, at went off obliquelyin all directions to the dis comfiture of the audience; transparencies, upon which the getters up had specially plumed themselves, were found te beinsuch outrageous bad taste that they were ignominiously hus- tled away out of sight in the rear of the stand. This fate befell a very elaborate monumental Peneeaeenny from the Seventh Ward, on which the Genius of Liberty, in a blue gown, was represented in a bent position, with her hands pressed upon her stomach, with an ap- arance of acute agony, as if she were suf- fertng from the summer complaint and was in the last stage of collapse. A sgilor,on the reverse side, was represented straddled like the Colossus of Rhodes, and with legs dis- tended at so obtuse an angle as terribly to threaten the integrity of the seat of his pant- aloons. The meeting was presided over by Mr. Jos. H. Bradley, who made a few opening remarks, but he was evidently not inthe enthusiastic mood, nor was the audience. Gen. McCalla defined his position and read rye resolutions. (Audience still out of spir- Senator Crittenden was Le so forward, but he too was laboring under the prevailing blues, and failed to pump up any enthusiasm. An ill-advised imitation of the Democratic meeting, double-stand speaking, resulted ina failure, as the meeting, though respectable in er of size, was not large enough to bear ividing. We have no doubt the Know Noth- ings will rectify all these little errors in fu- ture; and by holding their mass meet:ngs in — school-house make a pretty respectable show.

In the House of Lords, Lord Clarendon stated, in reply to a question from Lord Der- by, that it was uot the intention of the Govern- ment to advise the Queen to suspend diplo- matic relations with America. This announce- ment was loudly cheered. Lord Derby expressed his satisfaction, but said he regarded the Government's course a8 humiliating, and an acknowledgment of error. Lord Clarendon appealed to the House not to join Lord Derby in pressing the question and the subject was then dropped- The funds immediately rose in censequence of the announcement that Mr. Dallas was not to be dismissed.
