No action whatever has been taken on the sen- atorial question. The Republican paper in Trenton opens sharply on Senator Scovel for yoting notto go into a jomt meeting. Doubts are felt everywhere as to the probability efa joint meeting atall. The prominent candidates are James M. Scovel and Aiexander G. Cattell, of Camden. Senator Ludlow, of Cumberland county, who offered the resolution to go intoa joint meeting in the Senate on Thursday, says the recently published dispatch in regard to the vote in that house on the resolution to go into & joint meeting to electa U.S. Senator is likely to lead to a mistake on that subject, and explains that the vete was ten in tavor of the resojution and nine against it, and the pesolu- tion was lost because of a previous one which had been passed by Mr. Scovel voting with the Democrats to make a majority of the whole number—eleven—necessary to pass the reso- jution. The ten votes given in favor of going into a joint meeting comprised ail the members elected as Republicans excepting Mr. Scovel, who voted with the Democrats against it. Another destructive firehas visited Olean, N.Y. The flames were discovered Thursday mornigg about three o’clock, issuing from the rear of the Olean House barns and the livery stable of Jolin King, and, before assistance could be bad, both these structures were given up to the devouring element. The Olean House barn contained fourteen horses, eleven of which belonged to guests of the house and three to the proprietors. The barn was filled with hay and grain,ioaded wagons and carria- ges. The lose to Jennings Brothers, proprietors of the Olean House, is not less than $3,000. There isno insurance. Others having teams and carriages in the barn lose from five to eight thousand dollars. A pedler’s wagon, just located at Cuba, with Yankee notions, medicines, éc., belonging to Messrs. Urosiey & Co., of Cuba, yalued with its contents at £3,500, Was burned, together with a very valu- able team worth at least $éu), There was no insurance. Trade in Galveston, Texas, is dull, and the demand for merchandise is falling off. The cattle business is very lively. Steamers are engaged many trips ahead. The newspapers are advertising the Texas and Kansas railroad very enthusiastically, claiming that it will piace St, Louis within thirty hours trayel of Galveston, The oi) tefinery of Mesers. Bedell, Lyon. & ., on Railroad avenue, in Newark, N. J., was totally consumed by fire Thursday morn- ing. Mr. Lyon was burned to death; his body was taken from the ruins completely charred. Miss Brandreth, a passer-by, was badly in- jared by the explosion. Workmen haye been bnsily at work since the Cincinnati fire remoying the ruins of the Opera Houee. About fifty thousand dollars’ worth of front wall wiil be saved. Seven flre- proof safes belonging to Adams’ Express Company, have been recovered from the ruins, with thetr contents uninjured. The {vicinity of Sullivan, Moultrie county, Tilinois, was visited by a terrible tornado on the 29h imstant, causing great destruction to property. Twenty houses were entirely de- molished, and several persons injured. The steamer Constitution sailed from San Francisco yesterday with $4,393,348 in treasure, of which sum %3,094,59 is for New York. Hon. Cornelius Cole, U.S. Senator elect, is a passenger. Business in New Orleans is lively, and the demand for Western produce active. Crowds of people are constantly arriving. The de- tective force has been abolished in that city. A fire occurred Wednesday night on Seneca street, in Baffalo N, Y., by which the confec- tionery store of G. A. van Slyck wascon- siderably damaged. It was fully insured. A fire at Lebanon, Indiana, destroyed prop- erty amounting to $50,000. Four tmches of snow fell at Chicago on Tuesday night. Pe LOCAL NEWS. MEETING AT POLKINHORN HALL, A Lively Time. Last night, an adjourned meeting for the purpose of forming a club to support the res- toration policy oi President Johnson, was held at Polkinhorn’s building om D street. It was held in the fourth story and up the steepest steps that ever architect designed or builder d. It was painful to see venerable winded gentlemen like Tom Florence, Judge Mason, Dr. Clayton and others paffing, sweating and swe: & up those steep stairs. Was it a sharp dodge of the young scape- graces of the association to bluff off the pleth- oric old feliows by selecting this sky-parlor meeting place! So disgusied were these elderly gentlemen that v.« are confident not a soul of them aged ever % or weighing over 240 pounds will ever mount those steps again unless sent WP, by a boisting apparatus. Mr. Cornelius ende}}, (260 jounder,) president of the association, and Mr. James G. Berret, (290,) chairman of the committee on permanent or- ganization, were missing through the entire evening, very much to the surprise of every- body; and there was no end of inquiries and surmises asto the cause. Their absence was afterwards explained, however, in a manner entirely honorable to those gentlemen. It is understood, in tact, that they were present quite exrly in the evening, and made super- human exertions to mount to the meeting room. Mr. Berret, it is stated, struggled up to the first landing, where he got hopelessly stranded. Mr. Wendell, by an amonnt of ex- ertion little less than marvelous, lifted his immense avoirdupois to the top of the second flight, where, brea determined to take no step backward, he found it physically impos- sible to take another step forward, so seated himself there for theevening. Like a man in @ cataleptic trance, who, powerless, suffers in- describable torments through hearing arrange- ments going on for burying him alive, so the portly president of the A. J.C. U.O. of W. was tortured by being within earshot of the pother above, on account of his absence; could hear the ‘rantic inguiries for him, but could make no response. Among those who succeeded in mounting to the meeting room, as participators or spec- tators, we noticed Messrs. James S. Holiand, James Ward, James Enxlish, Jonah D. Hoover, Fitzhugh Coyle; Mareeron, Tolson, and Hall, 6th ward: Charley Hodgson, Judge Charles Mason, Thomas B. Florence Snow, of the Intelligencer, Dr. Allen, J.W. Mead, M. Daffey, J. W. Champitt, L. M. FE. Cook, A. Aldermen A. Lloyd and Noyes, F. McNer- hany, F. A. Kiopter, Elias Barnes, James Lynch, J. W. Dyer, Thomas Frazier, W. J. Gary, E. F. Queen, F. A. Aiken, Henry Lyies, Marion Fenwick, special policeman, and one or two policemen. After some time spent in waiting for Messrs. Perret, Flinn, Wendeil, and others, Mr. F. A. Klopfer advanced to the table, and calling the meeting to order, nommated Jndge Charles Mason as chairman, whe was elected. Mr. A. Lioyd nominated Mr. ©. 8. Noyes as secretary; and he was elected. Mr. T. A. Tolswn, in the absence of the chair- man (Colonel Berre:) of the committee to nom- inate officers, reported that the committee had held a meeting, and had selected but one name, viz: Mr. Cornelius Wendeil, for President. Mr. Michael Duffey moved to lay the report on the table, Mr. E. Barnes moved the adoption of the report, and was seconded by . M. Mar- ‘On. ceron. pt. ie —I oe oe my motion. The commi of course hada right to nominate who they pleased, but their nomination was the and thatthey would not act as they did last week The committee bad acted in good faith, and he saw no ri- ety of laying the motion on the table, and he Boped there wonld be no factious opposition. They had beenshown up omel of their netions at the hoped thatat this fala of themselves. ly because revious meeting, and he they would not make a N&, 4,078. thata motion to lay on the table is not qeba- table. = Florence said that the motion was de- le to a certain entent. Perhaps he was not in order himself, being a resident of @ State and only a sojourner here, but if he had any- thing to say it would be toexhort them to work hermoniously. Let us not have such scenes as had occurred last week, but illustrate how Sweetand pleasant it is to dwell in unity. Let us show tothe worjd how earnest ‘we are in this tic purpose to uphold the President. He exhorten them not to quar- or local: organize auational clabif you choose, or ; organize ana’ club if you c! and you will have local work to do. They were here in the midst of a revolution, twelve of the States of the Union not having Tepre- sentatives in the National Legislature, and they had just beheld the spectacle of one Sens- tor legally elected by his State being ejected by the Senate. Constitutional liberty in dan- ger a short time ago is in more Tr now, for there is a factious R ition in the Senate of the United States. ey should meet the issue here, and as ye le knowing their rights, dare maintain t| ,” and start from the first with earnestness. He deeply temptto summarily dispose of the report of the committee. ‘he committee had been clothed with tull power by the Meeting to select a president and other officers. Mr. Lyles.—I would like to ask a question. Did not Mr. Berret, the Chairman of the com- mittee, start out with the proposition that the club was to be National. Mr. Florence.—1 am not the keeper of Mr. Berret’s conscience or his views; he must an- swer 33 ee Mr. les.—Did not you support the propo- sition ofMr, Berret? a = wig Mr. Florence.—I did. 1 haye my opinions and when I think proper I can change them, but I do not know that | should thus be inter- ‘ated in a public assemblage. Tr. Lioyd.—1 would like to ask where is Mr. Wendell? Where was he at the last meeting! I was here then and am here now and would like to know where he is? Mr. Florence.—Do you ask me, sir. Mr. Lioyd.—No, sir. Justice Clayton.—All this difficulty is easily settled. 1t is like boys playing marbles, the less valuable the marbles the bigger the quar- rel. He suggested that the qnestion be put. Mr. Marceron, (leaving his reportorial notes,) yes, take the question. Mr. Barnes.—Take the yote on the adoption of_the report. Mr. Licya.—I move the report be recom- mitted. Several Voices.—“Take a vote!’ «Report of committee, first,” &c Mr. Lyles said he had no wish toact discour- teously to Mr. Wendell, but he had been sur- prised at the report of the committee, for it was generally understood that they were te report officers for a national club. ‘The committee were appointed tor a specific parpose, and came here Inst Friday asking further time to report names of officers from the States, and now they come with the name of only one of- ficer, and he from the District. Mr. Barnes.—If we elect a President from the District it does not mean that the club is not to be national. Mr. Florence.—Al this objection toMr. Wen- cell comes with bad grace. the gentleman mean to say that the selection of Mr. Wendell will make it less national? Mr. Lyles.— Will the gen” —_ Mr. Fiorence.—I will not be interrupted or catechised. ‘The Chair.—* Order! order Mr. Dodge.—-+ Go it, Colonel!’ {Laughter.} Mr. Florence.—Is he not a good citizen ? Mr. Lyles—He’s a good citizen enough, yat—— Mr. Florence.—The objection has something deeper behind it. The-gentieman can nominate who he pleases. Dir.

(A long pause.) I have no objection to the gentleman voting for whohe pleases. I protest against any person speaking against Mr. Wendell without a cause, or with an indiscriminate as- saulton the commitiee, The committee were clothed with full power to select a president, and have done so, and unless the committee au discharged or the power rescinded, the as- sociation is bound by the nomination, Dr. Allen.—Mr. President— Cries of “Order.” Mr. Lyles.—1 hope you will allow me—— Col. Florence.—Mr. President Mr. Lyles. have not made any remark agamst Mr. Wendell, and the remarks of Mr. Florence are uncourteons, to say the least.
