US. Acricurrvgar Soerety.—When our re- port closed yesterday the subject under discussion «wns in relation to extending the usefalness of the Soctety by furnishing to the Secretary standing journals of agriculture, and giving him authority to employ persons at proper times to prepare ar- ticles for publication in the Society’s journal. he subject was finally laid on the table. ‘The Chair announced that owing to some acci- dent at the Mint. all the medals are not ready; but one gold and some fifty silver medals are ready, and the remainder of the silver and all the bronze medals cannot be done till the machinery of the Mint has been repaired. The Chair also an- nounced that Mr. Henry Cowing, of Texas, was prese! ad desired to explain the drawings of a Steam-plongh which he claimed to have invent- ed, to the Society.

On motion by Mr. Wilder, of Mass , a commit- tee of five was appointed to wait on the President of the United States and conduct him to the so- ciety at o'clock. ‘The Chair appointed as such committee Messrs. Wilder, Morris, Tayloe, Loring and Smith. Mr. Kenne@y, of the Censis Bureau. then ad- dressed the society upon the agricultural statistics of the next census. Upon closing his remarks, Mr. Olcott, of N. Y_, moved that the thanks of r, and request f his remarks for pubiicati Also, that leman be requested to furnish the society racticable plan for carrying out the rece carried. witha ommendations contained there’ {py connection with this subject, Mr. Mackall, of Mianesota, addressed the society in relation to the Agricultural Bureau of the Government, eharac- terizing its operations as productive mainly of k cal capital for members of Congress. who drew their pro rata annually of the agricultural redorts and sent them out without regard to the ued to be conferred upon thecountry pitshment. Chair read a communication from the Su- of the U.S. Coast Survey, inviting to v sit the office of the Coast Survey. Oa motion, by Mr. Stevens, of Washington’ ritory, the invitation was accepted, and fe Chair authorized to respond in a fitting manner. Mr. Harlan, of lowa, replied to the remarks re- ug upon the action of members of Congress, saying that be knew of no member of Congress who wonld not willingly dispense with the ben fits to be derived from the publication of the re- port. In his district he received enough last yer te furnish about one and one-half copies to each county It was rather a sacrifice than a satisfac- Gon or benefit to members of Congress Any one not Knowing the facts might readily fall into the error already expressed. He had no unkind feel- ing towards any one, and made this explanation simply in justice to those personaily aifected by the remarks just made : Mr. Mackall had only spoke of this distribution as a4 system which ouzut to be made more inde- pendent and practical. Members of Cougress, many of them, knew too little of agricatture to understind properly the importance of this ques- nto the country. He hoped, if possible, a plan ght be devised to tike this thing from the governmentof Congress and placed in the hands of a separate department. Mr. Calvert, of Md., addressed the, society'on the same question, aud pitched into the late ad visory report =< the Patent @ilice. He moved that a commi! be appointed whose duty it should be to obtain and publish the report of the advisory board, which had never yet seen the ‘ight of day. Mr. C. took this occasion to invite members of the society to visit the A-ricultural College of Maryland, lately established in Prince George county. Md. Mr. Jobason, of N. Y.. made some remarks in relation to the same subject, and expressed a hope that we should be enabled to have a department established under the Secretary of the Interior, which should advance the interests of agriculture ia this country. At Il o'clock a. m., President Buchanan, ac- companied by the committee appointed to wait on bim. entered the ball and took a seat by the side of the chatrman. Mr. Tilghman, in presenting the certificate of honorary metnbership to the President,(which was yesterday awarded him by the society.) expressed the sincere pleasure which the presence of the Ubief Magistrate of the Union in their meeting had aff ded them. It was a strange coincidence in the history of our country. that every one of those who had been selected by their countrymen for the exalted station which lie occupied so wor- thily had either been taken, like Cincinnatus, from the pursuitof agriculture, or have adopted it #3 soon as the mantle of office was laid aside. The President responded in happy terms. thank- ing thetn most cordially for this ua proifr. It was a bigh honor in itself; but it is far more highly appreciated as a token of regard from this Society than for any other consideration. In re- zard to himself, he was born with a taste for the country and for agriculture, which he had never yet been able to indulge. He was nota good Practic+l farmer, though he loved the life, and calculated and anticipated with mach grester leasure a return in less than eighteen months to heatland than he had anticipated the pleasure of coming here as President. [Applause y President Tilghman then aun ced that Mr Buchanan bad consented to receive the Grand Gold Medal of Honor awarded to Fawkes, in the absence of the inventor. His remarks were as follows: “Having now. sir, been duly installed as an hon- orary member of the soclety.

On account of the lecture not having been announced in the Star, the source to which the Metropolitan public look for all such information, the attendance was very slim. The lecturer had marked out on a tnap of the continent, suspended over the stave, an L ripe onf the highest and lowest latitudes in which the different Eoops of the country would flourish. ‘Tbe boundary lines of these zones of latitade did not run straight across the continent, but irregularly, according to the zeoraphy of the country. For instance, starting at a certain point on the Atlantic coast, they tended gradually north- ward, until reaching the Rocky mountains, they went far northward, tid on crossing the moun- thins descended as suddenly southward before striking the Pacific coast. The lecturer contended that the productiveness of the soil depended more upon seasouable heat and rain than upon any par- ticular ingredients it might contain, though the latter qualities were by no means to be lost sight of It had been demonstrated that in whatevet latitude a plant was produced. it required a certain amount of heat, thermometrically estimated, to bring itto maturity, and the colder the weather the longer the time required for maturation, and vice versa. Consequently agricuiturists, in their operations, shonid not only consult the quality of their soil, but the climatory and meteorological ecullarities of the localities in which they resided. Pine Doctor said that various theories had been advanced to account for the existence of the west ern prairies. His theory was that they had been caused by winter drouths, he having estimated that not enough rain fell in those’ particular regions of the country during the winter season to support forest trees. Note —The ve ylaee having had some experience on the prairiesofthe West, must beg leave to ditf-r from the Doctor in this theory. Those prairi are generally skirted with thriving forests, aud in their midst are frequently found isolated groves of forest trees of the most vigorous growth, while it is a notorious fact there that all kinds of trees transplantad upon the prairies flourish as well, and in many cases better, than in the most wooded regions, in a similar latitude. All that seems to be pees, is the germ of the tree. This being once supplied there seems to be nothing either in the soil or the meteorological condition of the country to prevent it from being densely crowded with forests. Artificial yroves have long since become a prominent and permanent feature of the Prairies, both for ornament and use. A Preasaxt Time —The members of Colum- Sia Lodge, No. 10, 1.0.0. F., hada pleasant time ia their lodge room, last night, where were con- gregated their wives and cilddren and and orphans under care of the Lodge. by Prosperi’s band, and address-s by Fred. D. Stuart and G. Sec. John T. anys, took Ds the early part of the evening, after which each of the orphans was presented with a beautiful book and some article of jewelry. &e. Refresh- ments were served by the committee, and the dif- ferent rooms in the Hall (including campmieut room, which, by the way, is appropri- ately and tastefully furnished and decorated.) were inspected by the curious, some of whom left with the conswation that during the evening they had discov: the secret of Odd Fellowship. by singing an Ode by a Prayer from the Rev. Mr. Rogers of the M.E-Church. After all were satisfied (and it takes Columbia’s members to do the handsome thing) tue services were closed by the singing of an Ode, and the company separated about eleven o'clock, well pleased with the entertiinment pro- vided for them by the committee of arrangements. ‘Twenty-seven handsome and useful presents— books. &c , were distributed, and the happy faces and sparkling eyes of the little ones as they stepped up to receive their gifts, was a sight well calculated to repay the members of the Lodye for their care and trouble. Columbia Lodge is in the noble practice of an- nually assembling together their juvenile pro- tegees and presenting them with some appropri- ate souvenirs, in connection with other services of a pleasing character. This flourishing and chari- table Lodge well deserves the good name it bears with the Order generally, and in the mouths of the widow and orphan. AN ImpRovEMENT.—It will be a subject for re- joicing among those interested to know that on wwonday night last a bill the City Council providing for arching over of the gulley running through the square bounded by Ninth and Tenth streets west, aud G and H streets north, known as the Middleton property. The run which divides this square transversely empties into the great Ninth street sewer, and thence into the City Canal. All the flith, dirt, ashes, rubbish, and scrapings of every description that annually accumulate within reasonable distance of this spot, are carted tuere and deposited, and have been for years, to say nothing of the thousands of cart logds of dirt carted to the spot eat by contractors for urading streets. Yet the gulley is no nearer bein tilled np than it was ten years ago, and the reason why is ebvieus. The run is provided with a goodly d stream of water constantly, and whenever a rain of considerable volume falls it becomes swollen to sometimes ten times its natural force and volume, and this extra agitation of the waters causes the loosely dumped dirt to be swept away down the gulley, and jt does not tind a quiet thenceforward natil it reaches the bed of the City Canal, where it forms those ngly bars so detrimental to canal navigation, and which cost the Corporation not a little annually to have dredged out. There are other disagreeable features about this square, especially in summer, which are of an unmentionable character, and have long been a crying nuisance to the surrounding neigb- borhood. ‘These also will be abated by the are ing over of the run, and people residing there- abonts will, it is to be hoped, have no further canse for complaint. Suge eNDERED.—Last might Chas. Polkinhorn who stands indicted as aiding and abetting John Essex in the killing of Mr. C. W. Raborg, of Puiladelphia, in this city in December last, went in company with Jno. E. Norris -» bis coun- sel, to the residence of Marshal Sei: and sur- rendered himself into his custody. He was sent to the county j til to await the result of the trial. It is rumored that he has made a full statement to the Marshal and his counsel. It is probably true that he has done so the latter but to none other. The return of Polkinborn has been expected by his friends, who were in hope that he would do so as soon as the verdict of the pevetes. 7 was made public. The police were satisfied that he would make his appearance very soon after the oc- currence, and they are of the opinion that he has atno time been far from the city limits.

To-day —Messrs.

It was not known whether Mr. F. would be able to obtain security to that extent, in consequence of the impression circulated at the time he was given up by his former bail, (Mr. Tayloe,) of his having attempted to get out of the country. This impression grew out of a visit made by Mr. F. to New York, for the purpose of obtaining evidence for his forthcoming trial. It is understood that application will be made for continuing his case to the next term of the Crimi- nal Court. Alice Hamilton was placed on trial on a charge of ees a bawdy and disorderly house on Twelfth street, between C and D streets, in the city of Washington. County Constable Boss testified for the United States, that he knows the defendant. ani where she resides She has lived there two or three years; has been the proprietress since June last; has seen persons of both sexes visit the house, who have the reputation of being lewd charac- ters; bave seen two women there who lived there, seemed to live there; has not seen any disorders ere. Mrs. Martha Bangs testified that she knows the piece in question, but don't know who keeps it; as seen very indecent conduct there; has seen windows open, ges lit, and persons of both sexes undressed; has heard screaming there; has seen persons of both sexes go there, both in the night and day, in hacks and on foot. old and young of both sexes, and has heard indecent songs sung there. Mr. Berryman, who lives opposite the house, also gave siinilar testimony. Officers Fanning and Eckloff testified to the same state of facts. Mr. Snel! testified that he lived seven years next door to the house in question, and there was al- ways four, six. or eight women there; has seen men come and ring the bell, and women come and look through ‘the little aquare hole in the front door and ask what they wanted: they would say they wanted to see the girls; they would vo in; pretty soon some more men came, and were also received; and pretty soon some more men came and asked for girls, and would be told the girls were all engaged; [laugliter,] witness bas complained of the noise, and they would promise to stop, but pretty soon it would be repeated; they had music and dancing, a fiddle, harp, and piano, and they jumped about on the floor. The witness was on the stand when our report closed. ee Tre Union Prayer Meetine at Wesiey Cusrri.—The second of the series of evening Prayer meetings, which it is proposed to have every evening this week, was held last night at Wesley Chapel. The church, thouzh not crowded, was well filled. and among the congregation we noticed many of our oldest aud most prominent citizens, who seemed to take a deep interest in the proceedings. The meeting was opened by the singing of a hymn, after which a portion of Scripture was read by the Rev. Dr. Gurley ‘The Rev. Dabney Ball, pastor, then arose and an- ced as the theme of remark to be --Suppli- cation to God that He will remember and es ildren of our own and heathen lands” The , Which consisted of several addresses of ten minutes each, were interpersed with singing and prayer. The Rev Dr. Finkel was the first speaker. He remarked that the subject was suflcient to warm the heart. and to enlist the sympath of all in- spired souls—of ali that believed i Christ are now py the p responsible positions at present oc- cupied by their seniors, should stimulate every one desirous of the welfare of his children, as well as of his conntry, to pray earnestly for theirsalvation. He then deplored the horrible condition of atfai in Heathen Jands, trusting that their_ sympathies might be awakened for these wretched people, and that if thus interested they might aid materially in advancing the Redeemer’s kinzdom by the ex- tensive circulation of the Gospel of Christ—the only effective mode. Rev. Dr. Samson followed. The mere act of sending a child to Sabbath school. and bis spe ing there an hour or two, under the reliio! instruction of a most faithful teacher, i would not suttice to render that child a ‘The parental eye ‘must be constantly directed to the child—his companions must be such as that, associating with them, he would thereby receive no moral burt; and they must pray earnestly in the family and in the closet for their conversion. Rev. Mr. Morsell warned young men from the danger of regarding pleasure as the great object of life; it was a fatal mistake made by man Addresses were then made by Revs. Dr. Smith and Hemilton. The Hon Mr. Clopton, of Al. who had been announced to deliver the conclud- ing, address, was unavoidably prevented from attehding the meeting. After prayer, the congregation was dismissed. The meeting will this evening be held: in ¢ Fourth Presbyterian Church, Ninth street, and to- morrow in the Thirteen street Baptist Church. 1. ‘The fact that wh ied upon to oe. the son of To Govrwets.—Gourmets and others, know! how ty appreciate the good things of the cu should scan closely Ha k's advertisemer to-day’s Star, He has on band a supply of varied game that wi ke one’s mouth water; tore especially if realized from actual experiment the capital style in which he serves up such things.

The notice contained in the Star of Monday, of the larceny committed upon Mr. Samuel Davis by a lady visitor from Baltimore, and the warning given, had the desired effect. The article came to her notice on Tuesday, and yesterday Mr. Davis received by Adams & Co.'s expres: mall box, containing the whole of the stolen articles, except one of trifling value and the small amount of money, which was doubtless expended in de- fraying her premature and hasty re home.
