H eee ag at Meeting at Union League Rooms. Pursuant to a published unsigned call a number of persons assembled last night at the Union League rooms, on Ninth street, and or ganized by calling Judge G. E. H. Day tothe cha rand appointing Mr. Cordial Storrs, of the Trea: ury Department, Secretary. Mr. Day, upon assuming the chair, said as this was an adjourned meeting he did not think it necessary t> state the objects, but it was proper to make a brief statement as to the legality of this meeting. He understood the call 8 week ago to ba by the Republican Asso- ciation, but the call embraced all electors and all Union men were invited to participate in the romination and election of delegates. The convention assembled. It was nota meeting of the Republican Association and therefore the officers of that association had no right to act at the meeting but a chairman should have been elected. He hada at respect for the gentlemen who acted at t meeting as Presi- dent and Secretary but he (Day) thought they Mistook their duties. meeyag was ad- journed for one week and no authority was given the president to fix any other place than this, and when the president of the last meet- ing called tor an assemblage at another place he outstepped his duties. Mr. Day believed this was the legal convention and that any other was bogus. Mr. J. R. Elvans offered the following res- olutions, which he said he understood would also be offered at the City Hall meeting : Whereas the call for this convention to elect delegates tothe convention to be held in Balti- more June 7, 1961, invites those only who de- sire the complete suppression of the rebellion, with the cause thereof; and whereas this con- vention which met at this place on Friday eve- ning, the 15th inst , and adjourned over to meet here to-night, declared, by an almost unani- mous vote, that slavery was the sole cause of the rebellion: Therefore be it Resolved, That no one is entitled to vote in this convention for delegates who does not sin- cerely endoree that resolution, and who is not in favor of the extermination of slavery as the only means to ensure a lasting peace ard per- petual Union. Before the resolution was acted upon, Mr. Beebie, of Georgetown, stated that he believed Mr. Coombs had at the last meeting acted as chairman only because he (Coombs) believed hehsda perfect right todo so. Asa test matter, he (Mr. D.) would therefore move that this meeting adjourn to the City Hall. This was opposed on many hands, and Dr. Boyd moved to lay the matter on the table; but this was finally withdrawn, and a direct vote was taken upon the question, and the meeting largely decided that they would not go to the City Hall. i. Elvans’ resolutions were then unani- mously adopted. Dr. Boyd here obtained the floor and offered & preamble and resolutions setting forth that a great massacre of Union troops had taken place at Fort Pillow, and advocating retalia- uon, and that a vigilance committee be ap- pointed at once to look after traitors every where, and especially those in our midst and those in Congress. The resolutions thought it eminently necessa- ry to get rid of a few of the big fish first, and in support of this Dr. Boyd mtroduced the tollowing poetic effusion: That we hang home-traitors up to dry, While we look after smaller fry’; That he who would for traitors make apology, We'll allow to dance the old doxology Of unmeasured step and time, ‘By the parhos of a trap and jerk of line. p The resolutions were too long to be immedi- ately considered, and were therefore laid on the table. On motion of Mr. Elvans the vote whereby the following resolution offered by Mr. Rich- ards at the last meeting, was passed, was ré- considered Reslved, That our delegates who shall be elected to attend the Baltimore convention which is to assemble in that city on the 7th of June next, to nominate candidates for the of- tices of President and Vice President of the United States, be and they are hereby instruct- ed to cast their votes, for the first-named office, in fayor of Abraham Lincoln, and that we hereby enjoin upon said delegates to use their influence and best endeavors to secure his re- nomination . Mr. Elvans offered as a substitute the resolu- tions offered by him at a previous meeting, and which were thesameas se Offered last week, and which expressed no preference for any can lidate, but left the delegates untrammelied. Mr. Deeble thought Mr. Richard’s resolution could be well amend:d by striking out the words instructed, and requesting the delegates to vote for Mr. Lincoln. Mr. R. M. Hail, (¢lerk from Indiana,) moved that the resolutions be referred to a committee ot five to prepare a platform to be submitted to the meeting. The committee, which could be composed of intelligent gentlemen, would bring in the proper resolutions, and by this course a better understanding would probably be had. Mr. Wolf (a clerk) was opposed to the ap- pointment of a committee. He believed all here could understand the resolution. All were supposed to be gentlemen, ani all were intelligent else they would not be radical. [Applause.] rt Fred Myers (of the Treasury Depart- ment) argued that if the resolution as it now reads was adopted the ree ot going from here to Baltimore would not be admitted at the Convention as contestants with the party at the City Hall. He wanted the delegates elected here to be admitted to the Baltimore Conven- ton, but he did not want it to go abroad that this was ananti-Lincoln meeting. [Applause.} Mr. Wolf did not know that this wasa Lin- coln meeting but a Union meeting tut the question was whether the delegates should go there instructed or unbiassed and vote for the best man Mr. R. M. Hall said he agreed we were here; not as partisans but as Union men. But while we were here for the Union there were certain gentlemen preferred by different parties and he believed a committee could so shape the reso- jution as to satisfy all parties. He (the speaker) believed in Abraham Lincoln. It was Abrabam Lincoln who had emancipated this District and this man who you would put down: this man Abraham Lincoln had ever done his whole duty, [applause,] and nothing but his duty. [Renewed lause.) Inevery instance he been found faithful. Some parties im the rfeigtiborhood of the speaker ere interrupted him with cries of “Schofield,” “Missouri,” “Gable,” &c., and the speaker continued by saying he would not be put down by such cries. Mr. Lincoln may not haye removed Schofield, butif he did not co 20 he believed he was doing right. [Ap- piause.}| Mr. Lincoln hadevyer believed that ihe shackles which bound the slave would be stricken off and that the oppressed would go tree, (applause,] and we who stand by such a man as Mr. Lincoln cannot and will not be put down. We are willing to abide by the <f any committee that may be appointed. ‘The motion to refer toa itlee was final- ‘y laid on the table, and then— Mr. Ay Watson, of the Post Office Depart- tent, obtaiued the floor, and said he desired to ‘alk to the resolution, and at the same time to contrevert the assertion that emancipation had begun in this District, and that a revolution of sentiment had taken place here. He did not believe there were more than five or six hun- Cred of the veters of this District who were anti-slavery. [Applause and hisses.) Nearly All were pro-slavery as heretoiore. (Cries of “That's so.”] It was the act ot Co and sot the act of President Lincoln that had set the colored people of the District free. If Mr. Lincoln's radicalism is so prominent, why do fopperheads here say Mr. L. is not radical? disses.) He (the speaker) had asked a man ‘a Swampoodle who he would go for for Pres- “ent, and he said his first choice was Geo. B. XicCiellan, but if he could not elect him then 4s choice was Abraham Lincoln, hisses;) and ‘bis was the policy of most of the Lincoln men \ere, [Hisses.] If Mr. Lincoln's policy is 80 Tadical 2nd positive why does he allow the order No.3 or his chief military adviser Tela- thet to negroes in Missouri still remain upon ‘he books without being rescinded !

He denied that slayes had been eman- cipated by the President’s Proclamation, aad said the proof of that fact was that Congress | was now considering an amendment to the Constitution to ‘vent saveBy or involuntar, servitude hereafter in the United $ States, if The resolutions of Elvans were finally enopied a8 a substitute ©. Richard s reso- ution. Mr. G. H. Larcomb moved to proceed toelec- tion of delegates, Mr. R. M. Hall moved to adjourn. After much confusion and debate of an im- material character, it was decided te proceed to election of delegates. Messrs. Powell, Finney, Peacley and Roeser were appointed tellers, and the vote was an- nounced as follows: J. R. Elvans, 103; L. Cle- phane, 101; A. OC. Richards, 22; B. B. French, 16; W. B.’ Wood, 16;G@. E. H. Day, 7; and scattering, 6. Messrs. Elvans and Clephane were declared elected, they having received a majority of the votes cast Messrs. Henry Ulke and ©.S. English were nominated for alternates. Mr. Myers desired to know if Mr. Ulke, who Was present, would say he would stand by the nomination of the Baltimore Convention, whether it was Mr. Lincoln or not. He (Mr. M.) had been informed that Mr. Ulke would not support Mr. Lincoln ifhe was nominated. The chair did not think the question a perti- nentone. The other candidates had not been questicned, and he did not see why Mr. Ulke should be. Other gentlemen thought Mr. Ulke should give expression to his sentiments. The chair did not still see the pertinence of the question. There appeared to be a fear that Mr. Ulke would notabide by the decision of the convention. Mr. Myers said it was no fear with him; but he was certain Mr. Ulke would notespouse the cause of Mr. Lincoln. and inthe name of an outraged Union party he protested against the use of any mans pape here for delegate or al- ternate who would not pledge himeelf to go for the nominee at Baltimore. Mr. Ulke was defended by his friends who Siatned that he would abide by the Conyen- ion. Mr. Hall desired to settle the matter by in- trocucing a vracrawon picoring every man to abide by the decision of the Baltimore Conven- an and asked a rising vote upon his resolu- ion. Mr. Elvans doubted the expediency, right or Propriety of forcing a man at this stage of pro- ceedings to define his ition. Mr. Powell spoke in favor of Mr. Ulke’s nomination. Much confusion here ensued. Mr. Hall in- sisted upon his motion amid cries of ‘ballot,”” “question,’’ &c., and finally a friend of Ulke’s Mr. Wolf) obtained the floor, and claimed for jim that he had voted tor Mr. Elvans’ resolu- tions. Mr. Ulke was asked to say so himself. The Chair said this looked like an unfriendly spirit, and he feared it would create dissension. The Chair, after quiet was restored, decided to proceed with the ballotting for alternates, and the tellers began to pass around, when an effort was made to appeal from the decision of the Chair, and in the meantime Mr. Lewis Clephaneappeared. He said he was obliged to the convention for electing him a delegate, and be would say that he would abide by the deci- sion of the NatiorialConvention. He appealed to Mr. Ulke to say whether he had voted for Mr. Elvana’ resolution. At this moment a young man who subse- quently gave his name as Wm. B. Eaton, for- merly of Prince George's county, Md., but now of Washington, and who had endeavored sev- eral times during the evening to make himself intelligible upon a matter that he himself did not appear to understand, advanced to the President’s chair and commenced to harangue the audience; when Dr. Boyd accused him of being the party who had interrupted the pro- ceedings all evening; and after a war of words Mr. Eaton subsided. Mr. Ulke, in yesponse to repeated calls, said ne had ee for Mr. Elvans’ resolution. [Ap- ause. R The balloting was then proceeded with, and the following result was announced, viz: Henry Ulke, $7; C. S. English, 37; Geo. F. McClellan, 21; scattering, 10. Mr. Ulke was declared elected; but no other candidate haying received a majority of the yotes cast, another ballot was ordered. A motion was made by some one in the back part of the hall, to adjourn. Moch confusion ensued, and some one wanted to know why it was necessary that these two conventions should be held. He thought one would be sufficient, and he desired to know why the split had occurred, and what spirit Cletatett the holding of a meeting at the City all. Mr. Elvans rose to give @n explanation, He said the same spirit which toadied to the authorities and changed the name of the beauti- ful public school building in the Third Ward tothe Wallach school, was the spirit which shaped this political split; and this same spirit would no doubt, if it dared, change the name of the city of Washington to something apper- taining to Wallach’s party. The Wallach party was responsible for this condition of affairs. A voice—The Trustees named the school- house after Mr. Wallach because he has been the earnest friend of the public schools. That's what’s the matter! The second ballot on the election of alter- nates was then taken, and resulted as follows: W. P. Wood, 30; C. S. English, 27; James A. Wise, 12; J. W. Deeble, 7; Geo. F. McClellan, 3. No one receiving a majority, there was no election. A motion was then made that the candidate receiving a plurality of votes on the next ballot shall be declared the nominee. Some one in the back part of the hall here made the assertion that Mr. J. A. Wise and others who had participated in the meeting at the City Hall were here and intended voting. Mr. ‘Wise said he was at theother meeting, but had not voted nor taken any part in the proceedings there. Mr. A. J. K. Baker accused Mr. Wise of hay- ing voted at the City Hall. Mr. Charles Spencer here arose and made the same statement. Mr. Wise, (excitedly.)—That fellow Spencer is in the Post Office Department, and belongs to the Richards party. He attends all political meetings, and votes on every side, and does all sorts of packing in all sorts of ballot-boxes, and at all sorts of meetings. Contusion and cries of “order,” “ballot” and ‘mo pereonal remarks are allowable,” &c. Amid the confusion Mr. A. J. K. Baker advanced toward the chair gesticulating some- what freely. The chair said they were about to take a third vote and no discussion could be allowed. There could he no confusi at the last meeting, and noswinging of and fists as an intimidation. A third ballot was then formally ordered. Mr. Wise desired to know if the men who voted at the City Hall were tobe allowed to vote here} The chair said he would exclude no man from voting if he was a good Union man. If apy man had gone to the City Hall and voted there and had come here repentant he was glad of it. The third ballot for alternate resulted as fol- lows :—Wm. P. Wood, 44; C.S. English, 24; and James A. Wise, 7; and Mr. Wood was declared elected and the announcement was received with much applause. On motion & Committee was appointed to prepare a history of the Conven'ions to be sub- mitted tothe Baltimore Convention and Messrs. G. E. H. Day, C. Storrs, —— Roeser, —— Pew- ell and Dr. Boyd were named as the Commit- tee. The meeting then adjourned. SPECIAL NOTICES. sandicsret chats Tur Mass Meetine Last Nicar. It seemed very strange to many that the Presi- dent of the meeting last night held in the Council Chamber of the City Hall, should have ordered the doors of the Chamber closed during the latter part ef the evening to all persons desiring to enter the Chamber, and that just at the moment the polls were closed without notice being given of their intention to do so, the presiding officer, upon being expostulated with for so high handed an assump- tion, did order the police to allow people to enter, The writer of this knows personally a number of persons who came to the City Hall to vote, but could not do so for reasons above stated, Now, it isa very easy matter for any set of gentlemen to get themselves elected to positions when they take a crowd with them, enter a room, close the doors behind-them and station policemen with instruc- tions to allow no person to enter. This may be very fine sport. but it hardly becomes men of character to conduct themselves thus. The writer entirely coincides with the prefer- ences of the meeting as to a candidate for the Presidency, but for the sake of justice and fair dealing protests against closing doors to persons entitled to participate in such proceedings as may transpire in meetings of the character of that last night. It may seem right men who are very anxious to elect themselves, but the public can’t see it in that light. “ Patr Pray,’ Dr. Baxnino’s Braces Will be applied by himself, for a few days only, at the National Hotel, commencing on Saturday, the 23d, between the hours of 24 and8 p.m. Pulmo- nics.
