Affer tue transaction of unimportant matters, toe Mociely adjourned. THIRD Day. The Society met at luo’clock a. m., Gen. Tilgh- ma e late President, in the chair. Mr. Caivert. of Md. presented a series of reso- lutions, expressing the sense of the Society in re- lation te agricultural education; also deploring the Executive veto of the Morrili bill passed by Congress last year, and calling upon the agricu!- tural societies throughout the States to cooperate with this society in endeavoring to obtain the passaze of a bill containing provisions similar to those contained in said bill. In offering the resolutions, Mr. C. contrasted the lenguaye of President Buchanan Iast year in Lis veto meesage with language used by him in in27, when a representative fresh from the people, upon Clay's land bill. Mr. C. was ata loss toun- derstand the discrepancy of views thus expressed, 2nd commented at some length upon the subject. la relation to the constitutional objections with whieh agriculturists are always met on makin: application to Congress for pretection in this vita interest, Mr. C. regretted that the Constitution now-a-days was not considered aad understood with mference to the good of the whole Union Pormerty it was written ou vellum es: which wos imperishable, but now a-dayg it had got to be printed on India rubber and other stretchy mate- tials, and was too capable of being warped and twisted to suit the convenience of leyislation Mr. Calvert spoke at length on the land bill. He wus opposed to making any but those who had distinguished themselves as agriculturists, honor- ary members of this tacos & He did not regard Mr. Buchanan as having taken any special interest in the subject of agriculture. The President him- s-lf had said yesterday that he thought they had 5 tle too far in making him an honorary Mr. Arny, of Kanses, concurred in most of the remarks of Mr. Calvert, but he thought that while Mr Buchanan was opposed to establishing agri- cultural colleges in the States at the expense of the Gover: ut, he desired to aid the cause in otuer Ways Mr Mann, of Minn., desired Mr. Calvert to withdraw the resolution which retlected on the Executive for bis veto of the agricultural college Mr. Calvert refused todo so. This bill would have be a law, bat for that veto, and lie desire t the country to know who was responsible for tts failure Mr. Manu proceeded to reply to som remarks submitted by Mr. Calvert Mr. Kel of N.

Tue THiRp oF THE Szntms oy Unton Praven Mestixcs —Another of these interesting meet- ings was held last evening in the Fourth Pres. byterian Church, (Rev. Dr. Smith’s,) on which occasion the church was densely filled. The meeting was opened with prayer by Rev. Mason Noble, after which the congregation engaged in the singing of a very appropriate hymn. The object jally of the evening’s exercises was an- nounced to be ‘Earnest prayer to God that he would exercise his aif power in removing the obstacles which now hinder the progres of the gospel in our own and foreign lan: Rev. Dr. Butler, of the Lutheran Church, first addressed the meeting. As everything is in the hands of God, and the lack of a proper spirit of religion in the professed Christian was one great hindrance to the progress of the kingdom of C! rist, we should pray, and pray earnestly that this great obstacle might be removed. There was power enough in the church to-night to convert the world, if the proper spirit y hegrts of all ausembled. + MY Pervaded the Dr. Gurley followed in a few me y few very interesting Rev. Mr. Kennard, who from unavoidable eir- aemaniaar Syren able to be present at the com- mencement of the meeting and tuus hear the pre- ceding addresses, Saeee nearly the ies round as that taken by Dr. Butler—want of zeal among christians in the work of Christ. Rev. Mr. Hamilton referred to the great ro- gress of the missiona enterprise. Dia Boa choose so to act, he in ght, by one word of his power, convert the entire world; but this was not God's purpose or his plan. He worked by and through us, and throngh our instrumentality. We must endeavor to convert the Pagan world as much by example as by precept. Rev. Mr. Morsell siid there were great and bumerous Gia es in the way of the progress of the Gospel he fact of the carnal mind being at enmity with God was one great obstacle in this way, and we ought to earnestly supplicate the Divine Throne to have it removed. I Rev. Dr. Parker followed. One great obstacle to the successful operations of the church was the want of Christian laymen. There were many professors of Christ, but few workers in the cause. A powerful obstacle td the progress of the Gospel in India is tke power and strength of “caste If the Hindoo er the Muselinan embrace the Gor- pel of Jesus Christ he is to be disinberited and versecuted. He may embrace the gospel of ‘Ton aine, but not of Christ. Another obstacle in foreign lends, which every miss'onary has felt, is the unchristian life of the representatives of Chris- tian nations as they ap ar upon the shores of heatheni; He should never forget the force with which the Imperial Commissioner, in his letter addressed to Ler Maj sty, (Queen Victoria, applied to her the ‘ coldem rule.?> In the intro. ductory part of that letter was written the follow- ing: “1 have understood that your Majesty, with a heart hitherto prescrved from vice, would not bring upon others an evil which you would not have others bring upon you. How is it, then, that the creat merchant vessels belonging to your hon- orable nation have brought to the Central King- dom that glowing poison—opium ?"? He re- garded the universal use of opium in China, in some of its features, as worse in its effects than the African slave trade. Dr. Parker is a missionary of the American board, aud an eminent practising physician. He for some time represented this Government in the Chinese Empire. After the usual closing exercises the meeting was dismissed. The Thirteenth-street Baptist Caurch bas been appoiated as the place of mcet- ing fer this evening AGRicuLtuRAL Lectures. —Rev. Dr Morris,cf Baltimore, lectured before the United States Agri cultural Society, at the Smithsonian, last evening, on the subject of * American Entomology,” in its relations to agriculture and horticulture. Not being met by as large an andience of azricultur- ists and gardeners as would naturally be expected on such an occasi the lecturer departed from his original purpose of giving a practical lecture on the'sabject, and indulged in such desultory remarks as he thought would be most interesting to the small promiscuous audience present. The number of persons in America known to have devoted more or less time to the science of Ento- mology are about fifty. Of these the principal are the Melsheimers of Pennsylvani: tatber, son, and Srandaon “Saye. Harris, and, last but not least, obn Lecompte. A young man named Urel, of Baltimore, at present unfortunately compelled to get a living by measuring tape, also wives promise of becomming a distinguished and useful naturali if forine should favor him. There is artist and naturalist in this city, at paratively unknown. who is studio severingly laying a foundation wide and deep for future usefuiness both in art and science. Dr. Fitch, State entomologist of New York. was also no doubt doing a great deal for the science, as he could not tind time to answer the correspondence of a brother entomologist. France and other Eu- ropean countries consider the relation of ente- mology to agriculture and horticulture of so much importance that they keep in employment the most eminent professors of the science. To illustrate the numbers and power of the in- sect tribes, the lecturer stated that he had in bis collection three thousand varieties of the ‘-beetle,”? and that he had seen a collection of forty thous:nd varieties in America, and sixty-five thousand in Beriin. To show bow much value entomologists set upon their specimens, however insignificant and cont-m ptible they may seem to the unscientitic eye, he related an anecdote of himself: He bad in his collection a very large specimen of the beetle a perfect novelty and curiosity in the entomoloy cal world. A distinguished European entomolo- gist seeing it offered him a thirty-six dollar clock for it. Notrade. The bidder then offered to add to the clock a forty dollar book-case. Stillno go. * Then,” said the scientific enthusiast, “you ity have the clock and book-case for nothing. *“Then,” ssid the Doctor, you may have the beetle for So a bug changed hands by senti- iwental stra’egem, that could not be purchased by a thirty-six dollar clock and a forty dollar book- case. The lecturer, in conclusion. treated upon the wonderful transformations of insects, such as that from the loathsome caterpilier to the beautifal buttertly, &c , suggesting that tie science of ento- mology afforded a worthy field for the researches of the most retind and intellectual. M just such a lecturer as they want nithsonian, and we should like to see him engaged fora course on the various subjects of wh he is master, with such announcements = would bring out an audience worthy the lecturer. st, Isoa young resent com- iy and per- Crimisat Court.—After our repent closed yes- ~ the jury in the case of Alice Hamilton, charged with keeping a bawdy house, returned a verdict of not guilty S Benj. Forguson was placed on trial for an as- sault and battery upon Damel W. Jarboe. He was convicted of a simple assault, and was sen- tenced to pay a fine of S10. 7 Nvim. Boyd, known as Dr Boyd, was placed on on a charge of stealing slaves from for the purpose of conveying them y into a free State. The testimony of the sland officers, who caught Boyd near West- minster with the slaves in his wagon, was in substance the same as given before Justice God- dard at the jail at the time of his arrest. Mr. Carrington conducts the case on the part of the defendant. Tuk District 1x Coxcress.—In the Senate yesterday, Mr. Brown, from the committee on the District of Columbia, reported a bill to amend the *s Act to incorporate the Provident Association of Clerks in the civil departments of the Government of the United States in the District of Columbia.” Also, a bill to authorize the extension and use of a branch of the Alexandria, Loudoun and Hamp shire Railroad within the city of Georgetown. On motion by Mr. Brown, a resolution was adopted that so much of the President’s Message and report of the Secretary of the Interior as_re- lates to the District of Columbia, be referred to the committee on the District of Columbia, with instructions to inquire into the expediency of enacting laws to carry their several recommenda- tions into effect. Tus TuRoven travel by the Orange and Alex- andria railroad is now conveyed over the Alexan dria and Washington railroad to Alexandria, stead cf over the turnpike, as has been the case since the closing of navigation between the two cities. Mr. Hugh Latham bas withdrawn his line of coaches from this route, and will run on the Lynchburg exteasion. Whaley’s omaibuses are now inking regular hourly trips in connec- tion with the trains on the Alexandria and Wash- ington railroad, starting from the corner of Loulsi- ana avenue and Seventh street.

The verdict was, the child had been placed there ‘by some unknown, and had subsequently djed from cold and exposure. Corre Turxr Cavent.—For some time D Say six months, there have been Peculations Anes on in the machinists’ ent of the Navy- Yard, which the overseers and workmen have hitberto been unable to discover, and trace to any particular party. Tools and implements about the shop have ~ 8 parce most mysteriously and begeContably, and the workmen, much annoyed, have been trying to ferret out the perpetrator in vain, until at last information was given which to suspicion against Andrew Shilling, a Ger- man mechanic in the shop, who was watched and seen to conceal copper about his clothing. Com. Buchanan arrested the man, and found 33 pounds ust ashe was of copper upon his person last night about: Tehving the yard. He as res to the guard-house at the gate,and Placed in the custod: of the marine officer there. Justice M urray hetd an examination, which disclosed sufficient evi- dence to warrant his cominittal to jail. He in fact acknowledged that he had taken copper, brass, ete., at various times. from the shop. Justice Murray accompanied the prisoner to the jail, and he there procured bail for his appearance to answer the charge before the Grand Jury. The bail is Chas. Mades, restaurant keeper at fhe south corner of Third strest and Peansyivania avenue. Tur Saitusoxtan Musece Notwithstanding the unpleasant walk to the Smithsonian, made so by the recent rains and the melting of the snow upon tke fields around the building, the visitors at the Institution are very numerous. The Ma- seum is growing rapidly, and increases in inter- est with the number of Specimens. In addition to the rapid progress of the General Classification by Prof. Baird, the arrangement of the specimens in the department of Conchology has begun and is progressing. This laborious work is being perfected by Mr. P. P. Carpenter, whose experi. ence in this department of acience gives assurance of the speedy addition to the Museum of a most satisfactory collection of sbells, so arranged as to add to the gratification of visitors who love to admire the beauty of Nature.
