WasuincTon TREATER.—“The ghost” walks to-night again at the Washington Theater, when ‘will be performed “The Death Fetch, or the Fountain of Life,” a drama full of the myste- Fious and supernatural. Mr. Cassedy has suc- ceeded in getting a model of the celebrated ¥rench mode of presenting spectra! illusions, and has introduced it in this play with singu- lar effectiveness. His ghosts too, are courteous spirits, and accommodate the public with en- core appearances, a feat not attempted in New York and elsewhere, we believe, where the less flexible Pepper model machinery is in use. Forp's THEATER was again well-filled last sight, even the new ghostly attractions not be- ing able to win the affections ot a host of play- goers from the splendid dramatic pageant, «The Naiad Queen.” But it must be remem- bered that but a very few more opportunities will be given of witnessing this play, and it therefore behooves all who would see it to hurry up. CANTERRURY.—Crowded houses nightly as- sure manager Sinn that his efforts to Please are appreciated. To-night he offers a bill embody- ing an immense amount of fun and music, to- gether with the great theatrical sensation of the day, the “Gbost.” Go see it by all means, and at the same time see the graceful dancing of Millie Fowler. Dick Parker and the rest of the company also appear. Varteties.—To-night's bill at the Varieties is also deserving of attention. Here too, the ««Ghost” may be seen, for he appears in Fitz- simmons’ sensation drama, « The Murderer’s Jtoom.” The ballet troupe, including Lina | Windell and Lizzie Shultz, will also appear under the lead of Mons. Baptistine. But the ghost is the great feature. THE Drart.—After our report closed yester- day, the following cases were dispesed of by the Board of Enrollment: Joseph Allen, erroneously enrolled.

Samuel Pearson, Esq., filled the chair. The chairman of the committee introduced the reading of the proposed constitution by saying that it was the same as that voted upon by sections at their last meeting, and that no alterations had been made in it save in phrase- ology. ‘Biter the reading of the constitution, the Chair stated that it was before the meeting as a whole, but that its sections admitted of amend- ment, which would be entertained if a motion to reconsider prevailed. Mr. Brown asked if it would be in order to offer a substitute for the proposed constitution. The Chair decided affirmatively. Mr. Eastman arose to introduce the substi- tute, when Mr. Lathrop called attention to the tact that Mr. Eastman was a member of the committee who had prepared and presented the original report, and he thought it a queer movement that be should offer a substitute. He began to think they were getting to sea, and thought it out of order for a member of the committee to present another plan. The Chair said that it might be presented ‘with propriety as a minority report. Mr. Eastman here arose and began a reply to Mr. Lathrop, when he was interrupted by a Suggestion from Mr. Scott that he read his pro- re substitute first and talk afterward, which e consented to do. The minority report haying been read—the main feature of difference between which and that originally reported was the substitution of the subscription for the joint stock system—a motion was made that it be adopted. The question was ealled and the motion lost, only one voting in its favor. Before the taking of the vote, Mr. Eastman seid he was originally in favor of the stock jan, if it could be honestly carried out; but he ad compared it with what he now submitted, and thought the substitute to be the simplest. He thought it right that the meeting should know what it was about, and not act in the dark. He was willing to compare both and choose the best. Mr. throp said he was rot originally in favor of the stock feature, but was really in favor of the plan submitted as the minority re- port. It was, indeed, his own plan as proposed to the committee, and he hoped the first report ‘would be rejected and the report of the minor- ity accepted. a Mr. Eastman madeexplanatory remarks with tTeterence to the action of the committee, and pronounced bis substitute as different from that suggested by Mr. Lathrop. id Mr. Finney thonght the substitute inferior to the original. i Mr. Scott said: Iam in tavor of keeping up the bombardment. We were in the hands of the Shylocks, and must rid ourselves of them. I desire to see the association organized on a bread platform, and the fire kept up all the time. The very fact that business men are trying to get into the association is evidence that the shoe pinches. He wanted to see the Capital of the greatest nation on earth made Such that we need not be ashamed of it. You have got the thing to work until the great mass of Northern people have more than oue thoronghiare come to Washington. You bave got tomaxe this Capital a place where people can live, ot move the Capital to where they can. The flour riot in New York was a blessing, it robbed the Shylocks and served them right. Mr.S. was particularly severe on the markets, and closed his remarks by declar- ing himeelf in favor of the original report, and hoped it would be adopted. Mr. Casey followed. He was in favor of the first constitutien, and for the reason that he ‘was in tavor of giving the Shylocks of the city no quarter. An entire radical reform is neces- eary in the mercantile structure of this city. Speculating would continue util you had re- formed society and business in this city. A great city like this cannot be kept up when it as to be taxed by goods designed for it passing through another large city. It behocves ‘he people here to lay the axe at the root of the’ ree, aud demand that they should haveother means of communication with other cities than by the Baltimore and Ohio railroad. [{Applanse.} On the quantity of coal brought to this city, the people here are taxed & halt million ot dol- Jars over the regular rates of transportation by this monopoly. We must invite the attention ot Eastern capitalists to this beautiful epot— for it was beautiful, though deformed by Abuses You want men to come and occupy the vacant acres around you; men not too lazy to work or too proud to sel! their products. (Applause.) In conclusion he cared not what constitution was adopted—he wanted the mat- ter agitated and others would follow us. Immediately after the vote on the substitute ‘was declared by the Chair, a motion was made to adopt the constitution originally reported— question called, vote taken, and the motion ‘was carried, with only one vote against it. Mr. Lathrop here said that as the constita- tion just adopted demanded that immediately alter its adoption it should be open to signa- tures, and that deposits should also be made, he would give notice that gentlemen might now come forward with their names and funds. At this point it was proposed to elect a pro- visional treasurer. H. S. Brown, Esq., was elected. Tho books were then’ declared opened, ahd twenty-four signatures were appended, and $210 deposited. The meeting then adjourned to Friday even- ing next. Ss Sr. MaTtHEw’s SunDAY SCHOOL Pic-yic.— ‘We callattention tothe advertisementin another olumn, announcing that a pic-nic, for the Per efit of the Sunday School of St. Mathew’s Church, will be held at Washington Park, cn Seventh street, on Wednesday noxt, September 16. The arrangements are under chargo of a Tespongible coramittee, and there is no doubt but that this pic-nic will be among the most interesting of the season. tate onr fellow-citizens on the new theatre which Mr. Joba T. Ford hasestablished among us. Inpoint of convenience, elegance andcom- fort it is by far the best house which has ever been erected here, and 1s, indeed, worthy of the National Metropolis in every respect. Here, at last, the love of the drama—the most uni ver- sal of all tastes—may be gratified without dan- ger of meeting one thing to offend the eye or the ear of purity and refinement. The anditorsand spectators find themselves in a lofty and com- modious saloon, light and airy, brilliantly yot | chastely embellished, and, above all, so admi- Tably ventilated as to afford a cool and whole- some atmosphere throughout the even: Here may the admirers of the old masters of sock and buckin expect to see their favorite tragedies and comedies represented with talent and taste, while enjoying the agreeable sur- roundings of perfect reatness and beauty in the appointments of all parts of the house, and of decorum and order throughout. Mr. Ford, however, showed his sagacity and taste in opening his elegant theater at this part of the season with something lighter, more splendid and wore strikingly effective than the regular Grama. The Naiad Queen is just the thing for the occasion, and is well suited to these bright, pleasant nights. It is really refreshing to turn from cur dusty streets and common-place ex- istence and gaze on this lovely and entrancing spectacle. It wraps onein a golden dream, fer from the cares and turmoil of the world! The plotis the simplest poesible—a child can un- derstand it. But the spectacle, from the rising of the curtain to its fall, comprises a series of scenes more enchanting, grand and diversified than ever before haye veen exhibited in Wash- ington; while these scenes are yivyifled by figures of exquisite loveliness and grace, whose lan- guage is poetry, whoee looks are full of winning sottnece, and whose movements have the ease and elasticity of immortality. There is a con- tinual succession of pictures, all deliciously sweet and pleasing. The place is Bingen, which every school girl and boy remembers: ‘ dear Bingen on the Rhine!” When the curtain is up, all is magic and dreamland; when it is down, there. is a falling back on the dull realities of life. Parents and guardians ought to patronize the matinees; for, perhaps, they will not soon again have an opportunity of showing to their children or ward: anything at once so amusing, so delight- ful, and so innocent. Nor let it be fancied that these hours of pure gratification to the imagina- tion and senses are without their meral bencfit; as Wadsworth says: « Felt in the blood, but also in the heart, And passing inward to the purer mind, With tranquil restoration t" Arich comic view is not wanting. Bishop is another Liston for humor. Young and old must hold their sides when he is on the stage. Mrs. Bishop, tcd, over bright and fair, with her fine voice and thorough-bred style, does not need the accessories of the pageant to set her off. The artists, generally, by their finish as well as talents, elevate the piece quite above the region ot mere spectacle. Mr. Ford has done a good and great work for the drama in Washington, and deserves the success whicn he will, doabt- less, receive from a liberal public. M. —— CHARGE OF ARsoNn.—Yesterday morning a colored woman named Ellen Bonds, who lived in Goat Alley, went to the office of Justice Thompson and complained that she had been abused by Charity Jackson, a colored woman, who lived m the house with her. The war- rant was issued and Roundsman Greer went to have her arrested. On his way he met offi- cer Fisher coming with Charity Jackson in custody, on charge of setting fire to the house. Officer Fisher met her coming out of the house with a lighted paper in her hand, and @ pipe; and the house was then burning. Justice Thompson sent the prisoner to jail tor farther hearing: but we learn that before sunset evi- dence was discovered that before the fire Charity Jackson asked leave of a colored man living near, to puther clothes in his house for sale keep'ng. Charity Jackson is an old acquaintance of the police, and her reputation is greatly against her, The house, with its contents, was destroyed; and among the con- tents was some valuable clothing belonging to families and gentiemen, by whom Ellen was employed as washer and ironer. The whole subject will be investigated by Justice Thomp- son, ge FourtH Warp STaTIo® Oasrs.—Ohas. W. Ellerbrock, pedling, unlicensed; $20.64, Catha- rine Grady, creating a nuisance, $5.64.
