SPIRIT OF THE MORNING PRESS. ‘The Infelligeneer thinks that while the right of tree discussion may be properly asserted in the face eguaily of military assumpjion on the one hand or of unquestioning servility on the other, it is not necessary to give to the exercise of this right the exaggeration of factious bra- vado or partisan violence.

They **Nix Verstay.** eS SES The Germans of Washington Nei to be Had by the Richards Party. BS Aes Handbilla snd variofs other devices had been made ure of among the Germans for some days, stating that & grand mass meeting was to beheld Wednesday evening, at eight o'clock, at German Hall, for the purpose of considering Matters aud things in general from an entirely new poing of view. The eloquent appeal wound up with the words * Come all.” Upon entering the hall at nine o'clock we found present precisely thirty persons, (ine Chronicleot this morning calls it “a large aud enthusiasiic mecting’ ') including two of the candidates at the coming election, Messrs. Richards and Ellwood, various German citi- zens, or sojourners here of Gorman descent, wnd sundry “UU. for O.(Union for Office) and “U. for C.”(Union tor Contract) drummers noi ot German birth. In the rear of the table prepared for the pres- ident, a large placard was spread upon the wall, bearing the names of Richards, Ellwood and Schaumberger. The Chronicle had promised a speech trom Schaumberger, but he having yamosed from the city during the day, the few American bora ‘who wished to take advantage of the rare ep- Periunity, and see, hear and scrutinize the intended man of their choice, were disappoi ed, being ‘reatedto a German letter, written some time in the afternoon by Mr. Schaum- berger, by way of apology. A dead silence prevailed. No accessions to the rank and file could reasonably beexpected, and efforts were therefore made to organize the meeting. Dir. Adolph Cluss was nominated for Presi- dent, but declined ; was elected anyhow, but politely declined again. Mr. Chas. Walter was taken up next, but he, too, refused to serve, “heing no politician.” After two mere unsuccessful attempts, Mr. F. Nied{elt was proposed and elected. He apolozized; just having entered the room, he, did not know the objectof the meeting, © > This objection was overruled, and he was induced to take the chair.

As there was no desire expressed, the passage of the resolu- tions was moved and carried, but not unani- mously, two or three voting “nein.” Mr. Charies Walter (an influential German) had voted against the passage, and would ex- plain. He heartily endorsed atl the patriotic sentiments of the resolutions, but could not | vote for Messrs. Ellwood and Schanmberger. } The question—Who is Ellwood?! had never } been answered yet; and as tor Schaumborger, ; he was ageinet aman who, ableenougzh todo | so, neyer had shown as much interest in the | allairs of this city as to spend a few dollars in the purchase of enough ground even to qual- ify him to hold the position he sought. At the , last eieciion when he run for the place, a lot had been donated him to enable him to fill up , the blank in his qualifications for the office. In the meantime Schaumberger, if worthy of support, would have taken measures to stand on his own legs, and if not otherwise, then, with the aid of his liberal pay asa volunteer officer. | Next followed Mr. Dietman, who declared himself to be a stranger, hailing from Pennsyi- ' vania, he had been brought here by the man- | agers of the meeting, and would therefore give them a speech. Mr. Walter bad objectéd to | persons, but he would speak of principles; per- | sons were nothing, were dying away, but principles would live forever, forever. The red yen, running throngh history, showed up ! a splendid array of names in Contucius, Zoro- aster, Aristotle, Cicero and Schiller.
