Jay Cooke & Co., at which several routes for the proposed canal to unite Wash- ington with the Chesapeake were discussed. A committee was appointed to wait on Con- gress snd ask the passage of a bill to give the comp: a franchise within the District lines. ‘The toliowing routes were ordered to be sur- veyed, and the estimates for each ordered — From the stern Branch, by way of Jones’ Gap, to the Patuxent, crossing probably above the =, to the Severn: by same ronte to the Patuxent, and thence to the head of South River, trom Beaver Dam, on the Eastern Branch, by Queen Anne's, to South itiver, thence up Crabb’s Creek and to Spa Creek, immediately back of Annapolis. pe ~ a Mexrin ov Coat DEALERS.—Last evening, A meeting of the retail coal dealers was held the rvoms of the Board of Trade to take meas- ures to protect the trade, at which about s:x- teen firms were represented. Mr. H. C. Stew art was called tothe chair and J. H. Barker acted as secretary Mr. W. E. Brown stated that some action Was necessary in regard to certain wholesale dealer’ intertering with the retail trade, and he caused to be read a Ivtter stating that an agent of 2 wholesale Philadelphia firm had of- ered to sell coal to one of the Departments at age 2.0 Mr. Barker stated that the person referred to Was the agent of Messrs. Tyler & Co., and he knew thathe bad made several offers to sell coal at reduced prices, but he had understood that he had withdrawn them subsequently Mr. Miller arged the formation of a perma- nent orgtnization for self-protection. Mr. Wilson asked if the object of the meeting was simply to take mensures in regard to one tnterloper, and stated that the dealers were in- yaring themselves by soliciting customers, of- tering to undersell their neighbors, &c. So common had this practice become that he felt disgraced in the business and would have lett itif he were younger. Mr opposed to trade com trade should tke sures to prot He bad beard that coal hac been ne Senate at 37.50, and he did not object to an en of the United States o: © proposals, but thought the pret- o Washingtonians. erence should be show r. Geinand was opposed to the middle @ thourht the coal merchants of this city should go direct @ mines for their sup- d start @ line of mers. He referred t that Georgetown monopolizes the Cumberiand coal trade, although the canal runs to (bis city, the boats being stopped in Georre own. e Chesapeake and Potomac cans! wil] be 4 failure in his opinion, pecanse Georgetown will not let the boats from Cum- berland come through. It seemed to him that we had no redress; that Congress was opposed to us simply because we happened to be born south of Mason and Dixon's line. Mr. Guinand caused to be read a communi- cation in the Star in reference to short weight, and said inquiry was made as tothe dealer referred to, but no one seemed to know. He expressed a hope that all dealers in good stand- ing would form a permanent coal exchange. Mr. Miller said that something should be done to protect dealers from bad customers, and he hoped if a permanent association was formed that all having customers who would hot pay would report their names to the asso- ciation, that the other dealers might not trust such. After some further debate, the association adjourned. ——e THE Sunpay ScHoots.—The Methodist Sun- day Schools of the city have been hoiding very interesting Meetings under the charge of Rev. J.H. Vincent. Mr. Vincent was formerly in the employ of the Sunday School Union of Chicago, and by bis wise management did much towards the advancement of that good cause in the West. He has lately been called by the Methodist Church to the charge of the Sunday School Union cause, with headquarters in New York city, and is stirring up Sunday School people to greater diligence. Sunday afternoon the large audience roem of Wesley Chapel was crowded with children and their friends, Trep- resenting every Methodist School in this city and Georgetown. The exercises occupied but little over an bour, but were exceedingly in- teresting and very profitable. The singing by the children, of hymns carefully selected and neatly printed for the occasion, was very bean- tifal, and the remarks by Rev. Mr. Vincent and others very appropriate. Yesterday afternoon a “Sunday School In- stitute” was held in the pleasant lecture room of Wesley pre oe Church. Theexercises com- menced at} o'clock and continued until half- past five. Mr. Vincent organized the visitors into classes giving them 8 lesson from which they taught, and afterwards gave their plans of teaching. In the evening at 7% o'clock the exercises Were continued, and a large assembly of teach- eTs and officers of our Sunday Schoois united im the meeting. These exercises were quite as imteresting as the others. and all felt themselves so much benefitted that they requested Mr. Vincent to remain with them until another meeting might be held, which he consented to do. car vee Recovery OF QUININE STOLEN PROM THE Meroical PURVEYOR’s.—On the 3d of February last it was reported at Police Headquarters that the building occupied by the Medical Purveyor, corner of 15th and F streets, had been burglariously entered the previous night, and quinme and powder of morphine to the value of over $1,000 had been stolen. The case was assigned to detectives McDevitt and Clar- voe, who, assisted by oilicer Miller. of the Second Ward, worked upon the case until they felt justified in arresung Wm. Edmonston, Jas. Jacobaman, and (jeo. Sears, alias Jersey, alias Howard, all three of whom are part of the gang of robbers, some of whom may at almost any time be found in that part of the city south of Pennsylvania avenue, between loth and ith streets. Yesterday the detectives, acting npon infor- mation received, proceeded to Baltimore, and, assisted by Messrs. Smith, Pearce, and West. independent detectives of that city, traced the quinihe to a drug store there, and recovered it. The proprietor of the store was arrested and held by Justice Hess to bail in the sum of $1,000 tor a further hearing. The recovered property was brought to this city, aud the case will be mvestigated by Superintendent Richards this morning. Sears, one of the parties arreste, was formerly employed by the Medical Par- veyor, and he thus became familiar with the ins and outs of the place. and the habits of the watchmen, who, he stat Were accustomed to take a nap about two o'clock in the morning It was at this hour that the robbery was com- mitted, Sears leading his companions, and pointing out to them the plunder. At the pres- ent price of quinine the value of what was re- covered is about $550. Eakty ox THe Roan ro Cuime.—Last even- ing, officers Coomes and MeColgan arrested John Williamson and John Kelly, wo boys, on the charge of the larceny of a box of jew- eler’s tools from D. Berrens, about a week — and ont See er nen to the station. Selly gave the name of! jodgers, and siren- meee. denied that he had ever been in the bands of the police before. The officers, how- ever, recognized him asa boy who some time since was in jail on the charge of an assanit and battery with intent to kill, and be was turned over to the Marshal. Williamson was committed to jail by Justice Walter. —_>—____ Deatu ov an Esteewep Citizex.—in our obituary column will be found announcement of the death of one of Washington’s most estimable citizens, Col.
