"THE EVENING STAR. The Largest Circulation im the District, | W: D. WALLACH, Editor and Proprietor. WASHINGTON CITY: SATURDAY....... sseeceee- JULY 28, 1966, S7 READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE. SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. S7 PERSONS LEAVING FOR THE COUNTRY, DURING THE SUMMER, CAN HAVE THE “STAR” MAILED TO THEM BY LEAVING THEIR ADDRESS AT THIS OFFICE. TERMS FIFTY CENTS PER MONTH. CIRCULATION OF THE CITY PRESS. ‘The following is the official showing ot the circulation of the daily papers of this city competing for the Government advertising under the recentact of Congress directing such Sdvertising to be made in the two daily news- papers of Washington having the largest circulation : THE CHRONICLE. THE FEBIANS. MAYOR CBW aLLACa AND CONGBESS. We bad supposed that our recent thorough exposure of the misrepresentations of the Chromicle im reference to Mayor Wallach and the city authorities, which resulted in the yir- tual retraction of its unjust aspersions, would bave taught it to exercise more fairness in its future reference to municipal affairs. Bat we Teckoned without our host. That journal, heretofore noted tor 1t= hostili, | ty to our Irish fellow citizens, ev:nced by sar- casm, taunts and inuendoes, to which we have bad occasion to refer on several occasions, has, | simce the radical party undertook to make po- | litical capital by patronizing the Fenian cause, | changed its tactics, and in an editorial in this | morning's issue entitled “Our City Napoleon,” endeavors to “kill two birds with one stone” by an exhibition of intense sympathy for suf_ fering Ireland, coupled with misstatements, intended to damage Mayor Wallach. But the Chronicle nas again put its “foot in it,” and its malice 1s harmless. Irishmen here are not as stupid as the writer of the article referred to Would seem to have imagined, but are general. ly possessed of sufficient intelligence to dis- criminate between truth ard falsehood, and | between friends and toes. The editorial in the Chronicle we refer to con- | tains about 8s many errors as could be crowded into an article of the same length. The writer in referring to the proposed Fenian meeting aj the national fair building last evening, says: “ Before the hour of CS soenin 3 notice was con- veyed through Mayor allach’s chief of police | that the meeting was held without the authors | ity of the iady managers of the fair building, | and in contempt of a certain ordinance requi- | ring & “permit” for all such demonstrations. The meeting was advertised after full permis- | sion bad been granted by those believed to be in authority, but it was evident from all the indications that if the citizens had not quietly separated they would have been forcibly dispersed by the order of our Napoléonic Mayor.” There is not one word of truth in this from beginning to end. as the account in our local | columns, furnished by our reporter, who was present during the evening, will show. We need only add, that we learn tha: Mayor Wallach was out of town during the evening, and knew nothing of the interruption of the meeting until this morning; that “Mayor Wallach’s Chief of Police” was thirty miles Jrom the city, and that the only interference } With the meeting, as shown in our report, was by the Metropolitan Police force, at the imstance of the lady managers. As the Metro- Politan Police force isa Congressional and not & municipal ins: tion, it follows that Con- gress, and not Mayor Wallach, is Tesponsible for this “double odor of the most ofiensive tyranny in this example,” to use the phrase- ology of our cotemporary. Therefore, the | opinions of the Chronicle, that “doubtless had the meeting been held, it would nave spoken | strongly in favor of the course of Congress, and possibly against the course of the Execu- | tive im suppressing the recent invasion of | Canada, and it is more than Probable that em- | phatic resolutions against buman slavery | ‘would bave been passed, and that a fore- | Ht knowledge of the sentiments and Objects of the | Projectors of the meeting had a good deal to do with Mayor Wallach’s petty despotism seemed to be generally understood in the | crowd,’ are entirely gratuitous, and unworthy of further notice. By our repert of Congressional proceedings t will be seen that the matter was introduced im both Houses of Congress. That the Chroni- cle should publish these misrepresentations is not & matter of surprise, but that should devote so much valuable time during the last hours of the session about to close, in serious legisiation based on a mere rumor, which bad no foundation in truth, is rather extraordinary, and makes us curious to learn how these false reports originated,and through what channel they were conveyed to the just- now-enthusiastic friends of Ireland in the Senate and House. An Irish friend has just | Suggested that the Fenian vote in the fall elec- tions will be quite large. im conclusion, we would state that Col. Roberts was unexpectedly summoned from the city by telegraph just previous :o the meeting, and that the Congressional orators were detained at the Capitol, whicn made a postponement necessary. _——$ NOMINATIONS BY THE PRESIDENT The tollowing important Bominations were, among others, sent to the Senate yesterday evening: Hon 0. 8.

T who came here From # foreign a e®duld in his opinion abide by and respect American laws. Mr. Kre replied to Mr. Johnson that there ‘Was nothing in the resolution. It would do no barm. There was no reason for the extreme anxiety about neutrality. Mr. Howe in the course of some remarks ad- verted to the course of the British Government toward this country during the late civil war. He was in favor of encouraging every struggie for liberty honestly made, he cared not by whom. He believed there was nothing in the resolution to which an American citizen could object. He knew of no people who had shown such love of country as the Fenians.
