AMUSEMENTS TO-NIGHT. CANTERBURY HaLL—Mr. Lea has now at his bail an amount of talent rarely found ina concert hall. That the company is apprecia‘ed is proved by the fact that the hall is crowded nightly, and that each performer is the recip- ient of much appiause. Olara and Millie Fow- er and the rest of the company appear to- night. Grover'’s THEateR.—The Warren comedy ombination have had 4 very successful week, snd to-night the performance will commence -vith the fine old play of ‘‘Sweethearts and “Vives,” and end with the comic drama, Parents and Guardians.” Mr. Wm. Warren = ppears in his great part of “Billy Lackaday,” ja the first named play, and will be sustained Ly Miss Mestayer, Miss Orton, and others. Forp’s THEATER.—Lover'’s rich drama, «‘Ro- yy O’More,” and the protean burietta, « Mis- chievyous Annie,” are announced for to-night Mr. Florence's “Rory O’More” is one of the raciest and most amusing delineations, while Mrs. Florence's “Annie Spruce” is also unique in its line. Atl who would enjoy a rare enter- tainment should by all means see the Flor- enees. VARIETIES. — Fitz Simmons keeps up the _Sensation, and the local drama, «The Seventh street Dressmaker, or the Union Martyr Gir!,” is announced for to-night agsin. There will be a good concert hall bill in addition to the drama. a DEMOCRATIC AssociaTION.— What they think about the McClellan Letter—It has a “slight Squinting towards coercion” —The Flag Commit- tee report—Mr. Schmidt in hot pursuit of that missing forty dollars. The Democratic Association held another Meeting last night, at Parker’s Hall. The chairman, Hon. Chas. Mason having returned called the meeting to order, and Mr. W. Flinn, acted as Secretary. Messrs. J. W. Reynolds, E.S. Scaggs, Rob’t A. Waters, Francis Lanahan, Thomas Holden, B. McCracken, Robert O. Polkinhorn, J. Gro- ‘ver, and S. Witherow, were proposed and elect- ed members. i ‘The chairman, Mr Mason, said that since he last had the pleasure of meeting with the Asso- ciation he had been to Chicago. All things had been conducted harmoniously there, and the result of of the assembling was known. Allof course could not be tully pleased with the re- sult, but all true Democrats would support the nominee of the Chicage Conyention. le did not prepare now to make aspeech, but simply to state thata barmonious spirit actuated the delegation at Chicago, and the nomination ‘would be satisfactory to all friends of good government and peace. {Applause.} {The epeaker was here interrupted by a young man, “slightly tight,” who adyanced upon the stage and appeared to be very enthusiastic for McClellan and peace. The intruder was qui- etly taken away and Mr. Mason proceeded ‘with his remarks.) He said the Chicago platform was not alto- gether for peace, butit had that which would dead to the attainment of peace, [applause,] and he believed McClellan would ao ail in his power to secure an honorable peace. [Re- newed applause } The speaker did not believe the masses North er South were really for war or a division of the Union, but circumstances had placed the power on both sides in the hands ofbad men. Allshould work honestly against Separation andthe Union could only be re- Btored by peace. [Applause.}] The only hope of the country is in the Ucnseryative party. {Applause.] Military successes may for a While tempt the South to hold cut, but the great object should be to get them back, and the only thing that could cement the Union together was « kindly feeling—war couldnever do it. fApplause.} Without a kind feeling there could be no unity between the people of the North and South, and the peopie must be satisfied that that good feeling really exists. Eternal war must be the result if the present | rulers are continued in power. [Applause.] ‘We can restore the Union, butin doing so wa Must not undertake to materially change the Constitution and Government while the coun- try is in the shock of battie, [applause,]for at Such a time it cannot be donesuccessfulty. He believed the Union could be restored bya re- turn to the old Constitution, and not make the Abolishing of slavery & condition. The people of the South will come back so soon as they feel their rights are safe. fApplause.| After they come back a convention of all the States could amend the Constitution if necessary. "The speaker believed that was the spirit,of Mc- Olelian’s letter of acceptance. Heconfessed he would have preferred some one else—[ Voice.— Fillmore for instance}—but he believed Mc- Clellan’s cours+ would be sach as to meetevery exigency. The letter has 4 slight squinting towards future coercion but there can be no doubt of McCleiian’s intention to bring the ap back if possible, under the old Constitu- on. The reading of McClellan's letter of accep- tance was here called for, and it was read by Mr. Tom. Floresce, who was frequently inter- rupted by applause. The “slightly tight” individual here again mounted the stage. Some one said, “put him out.” Mr. Florence.—Onb. no, don’t put him out; but take him from the platform. Justice Clayton took the stand, and eulo- gized McUlellan and Pendleton. He (the Judge) claimed to be a better Union man than Abrakam Lincoln, and he would be willing to sacrifice his life if he could hand the Constitu- tion of his country down to his sons &s he had received it. [Applause] While his sympa- thies were with the people of the South, he had no sympathy whatever with the heresy of secession. [Applause.] Justice C. then pointed toa picture of Washington back of the plat- form, and proposed three cheers for the three Georges— Washington, McClellan and Pendile- ton. The cheers were heartily given. Mr. Miller, from the committee to procure the flag suspended over the avenue, repoited that their duties had been attended to, and he bad yet #4 toturn over to the finance com- mittee. Mr. Schmidt hoped the committee would not be discharged until they handed over an amountof #10, which the treasurer had given to & member ot the tlag committee. Mr. Miller said he did not know any of the committee had received that money. He asked who had got it. Mr. Schmidt stated that Mr. Lyon hac. As the money hid been expended for the flag Taising, &c., it was suggested that the amount be made up by subscription. The ‘slightly tight’ individual said he ‘would pay the whole amount; but after several dives in his pocket, thers was ne money found, and consequently the amount was raised by contribution Mr. Tom Florence then urged upon all to ‘organize at once in their several wards, in order that the Democracy of Washington city might be fully represented on the 17th inst. Association then adjourned. MEETING OF THE WASHINGTON EXEMPTION Funp Association.—A called meeting of the Washington Exemption Fund Association took place last evening in the Council Chamber, «City Hall,) Mr. Lioyd in the chair. The printed lists of the members of the Association ‘were at hand and distributed to those present. Mr. H. Lyles moved to strike out the proviso in the third articie of the constitution, limiting the number of members to 500, and insert, “Any man in the city may join the association who is liable to draft.” Mr. Wailes move’ to lay the motion on the tadk Mr. Lyles, after mir. Wailes had temporarily ‘withdrawn the motion, stated that nly object ‘was to see all who wouid pnt in their contribu- ‘tions, and also to see something done towards yeducing the quota, and he wanted to see © ganizations formed in every ward whose © dject shall be to reduce the quota. He urged that the members of this, as the t associ- ation, should set the example. The contribu. tion of $100 by each person liable to draft, with the Government bounty, would go far towards Hilling the quota, and if the Government knew that the wards were at work in the matter, time would be given to fill up the quota. The Mayor, he stated, was doing and had been doing all he could in the matter, as any member of the association might know if he ‘went to the Mayor’s office; and he instanced a case in point: A Sergeant in the Ist District regiment, who had received a promise of a ©aptaincy if he raised a sufficient number of zoen, had gone to work and raised 40 men, who ‘were crecited to Pennsylvania. The Mayor had heard of it, and in consequence of his ac- tion the affair was stopped. and the young man was reduced to the ranks. Mr. T. H. Barron did not think there werea sufficient number of oo present to acton the resolution, and hoped it would lie over mntil a full meeting was obtained. Mr. B. F. Hurley (Maryland State mnt) Said that recent events had substantiated his statements made at @ previous meeting, and jhe asked it the draft had come off on Monday Jast where would the District have been? The Mayor, he would say, had done much, but ‘more might have been done. More had been accomplished in the past tew days thaa there ‘would have been had not a public stir been mnade of the matter. He was, however, ready to shoulder the responsibility of anything ne said. It seemed to him that the quota can be filled ‘without resorting to a draft, and he believed a Jund of $25,000 could be raised easily. It nad been intimated that the tendency of the tions of the associations was to discourage en- listments, but this was not the case. gl Sparitch his motion to lay the m of Mr. Lyles on the ta! pate eS ie oe ble, and it was . Bacon moved that the printed lists be taken in charge by the secretary for distribu- tion among the members. Carried. The members can therefore obtain copies of the lists at Mr. Davis’ office, opposite the City Hall. . Br, Merchant suggested the appointment of | 15¢.; blue fish, Lf lieved, with many others, that the District did not justly owe one single man; uote assigned was excessive, and he belie’ the Mayor couid do much towards making this apparent. Under the calls of 1961 and 1862 no quotas had been assigned, but large numbers of men were furnished in excess ef our Proportion. In 1863 the quota was on the enrollment on which were large numbers of persons who had no residence here, instead of on the basis of the census of 1260, and to this quota was added the number required under the previous calls, when there was no quots assigned to us. Tne quota was, however, sub- sequently reduced—the census being taken as a basis. There had been no credits given for the number unjustly charged against us for deficiency under calis of 1961 and 1862, and he believed this matter should be attended to Mr. Lyles stated that the Mayor was at work doing all he could to reduce the quota, and any action like this would be an insult to him. This ard similar associations was doing mach to retard enlistments, and stated that with many of the members there was too much sel- fishne: Many now were saying to them- selves, «‘ Let the draft go on; I don’t care; I’m insured;” but this was not the right spirit, and he urged thatsome means should be adopted to encourage recruiting and putting in of sab- stitutes, and the members throughout the dif- ferent wards could do much in giving such an impetus to recruiting that the quota would soon be filled. - A gentleman suggested that Mr. L., who stated that the influence of the association was against enlistments, was ip favor of increasing the number of members; and he asked if the association increased, and gradually the whole District became an exemption association, if the War Department would not be prompted to enforce the draft immediately. Mr. Detrick said that the name exemption association was a misnomer,—that none of the members were exempt, and so far from dis- couraging enlistments it had given them an impetus. The people in the wards were moving and making efforts to fill the quota. Some- thing ought to be done towards having names improperly enrolled stricken off, and there were many such. Transient persons had been enrolled here, and some who were lame, halt, and blind were placed on the list, including one man who had one leg at least a foot shorter than the other. In one room in the Treasury were five persons enrolled not subject to draft, one-third of those in it, and this proportion would hold good throughout the Departments. Mr. Merchant moved that Messrs. Lloyd, Bacon, and Harley be appointed a committee to confer with the Mayor in reference to se- curing a further reduction of the quota. Car- ried. The meeting adjourned subject to the call of the President. ———E OENTER MARKET To-DAY.—Beef, best cuts, er pound, 3ic.; next, 25c. Salt Beef, 15a20c, ried Beef, 25c. Veal, 20c.
