TERMS FIFTY CENTS PER MONTH. CIRCULATION OF THE CITY PRESS. The following is the official showing of the circulation of the daily papers of this city competing for the Government advertising under the recentact of Congress directing such Ad vertjsing to be made in the two daily news- papers of Washington having the largest circulation : THE LOUISIANA CONVENTION OF 1561. The extracts from a New Orleans paper, which we lay before our readers this afternoon, giving full particulars of the commencement and progress of the riots in that city, bear us outin the statements we maie im reference to the origin of the difficulty in an editorial on Wednesday. These extracts, as well as state. ments in other New Orleans journals, show | concfusively that the troubles were the leziti- mate results, in part of the course of Congress in holding the Southern States as conquered provinces, and more directly, of the revolntion- ary proceedings of the Radical State Conyen- tion. ‘That Convention claimed the right to re- assembie, under their action in 1561, when they adjourned to meet subject to the call of the President of the Convention, and when they Provided also that the Governor should issue Writs of election in parishes not Tepresented. A portion of the Convention wished to re- assemble at this time, in order to perpetuate their ascendancy in State affairs, but the actual President wisely refused te.call them togetber. Determined not to be foiled, they, in total dis- Tegard of the wishes of the people of Louisiana, met and elected a President pro tem., and on his call they came together. Election writs ‘were duly issued, but without the signature of the Secretary of State of Louisiana. Thus, in defiance of law and precedent, the Convention met, many of the members having | previously, by their injudicious course, pro. | voked an excited state of public feeling, with | the result we have seen. Many of the most in- fiuential and respectable Republican journals take this impartial view of the case Thusthe New York Post admits that «the Teassembling of the Louisiana Convention as a convention was wholly without authority from the people. The Convention had already done its work.” And the Commercial Advertiser of Saturday says still more emphatically : “According to the prevalent ideas of the ob- Jeet and mission of a Constitutional Conven tion, this Body ceased to exist when it made a | Constitution and sabmitted it to the people. It | could net, without doing violence to the gen- eral theory of our Republican system, perpet- wate itvelt by adjournments from one year to another, and so continue its existence indefi- | '» and remain the eternal reorganizer of jana needs new “blood.” t should represent the State as itis, and not as it was under the Banksrule.

Among the appropriations for the District by Congress was the item of $200,000 for the erection of 8 new jail in this city. Oar readers ‘will remember with what Pertinacity. we have from time to time urged the necessity for the construction of a new prison im place of the Present dilapidated and unsuitable structure, which for many years past has been annually presented by the grand jury as a nuisance. ‘We now learn that the Secretary of the Interior has examined several localities sug- gested as a site upon which to erect the new jail, but has not yet tully decided upon the point. He has, however, given instructions to the architects to draw plans of a suitable building adapted to the conformation of the ground at the corner of New Jersey and Vir- gini# avenues, south of the Capitol. which will doubtless be the site selected. $$ THE SAILOR’S FORGOTTEN. One remarkable teature in tne bill passed at the iast session of Congress, authorizing the payment of additional bounty, is the complete. bees with which our lant sailors have been ignored. The in. who rendered such good service, seem to have been overlooked entirely. The Fourth Auditor receives daily & very large number of !etters from sailors, who suppose, witb reason, that the act grant- ing additional bounty applics to them as well as to the soldiers. The only reply that can be made to them is that nothing can be done to- wards equalizing the bounties received by them under this act of Congress. host. @ Fr BREW ‘Will be paid tor a Black, Square See acta ite use!

Dr. Boynton, has been commenced on the northeast of 10th and G streets. The church is to be 80 feet by 143.0n the ontsiae, and on the south front are to be two towers, the one at the corner the largest. The styleof architectare is the Byzantine, the walls to be of red brick, with lines of light-colored stone. making a —— substantial, as well as fine looking vilding. Between the towers there will be three doors, as well as one on the west side of the main tower. Entering at the front the first place will bea vestibule 11 feet wide, trom which, in the centre, will runa hall 18 feet wide and 37 feet long to the auditorium. Either side of the hall will be a room 25 feet square between which. and the auditorium bez leet wide, stairways leading to the gallery and lecture room. The latter covers an area of 45 by 72 feet, which is separated by windows from the gallery, and more seating room can, there- by, be obtained whenever the auditorium is over-crowded. The rooms velow are intended for infantand Bible classes, but can also be used as pariors. The auditorium will be 76 by 90 feet, with a ceiling of 33 feet, with seats arranged in elip- tical form, so that every one may face the spenker. The galleries will contain five rows of seats on the south end, and four on the sides. The platform will be at the northend of the church, over which will be the choir eallery, with seats for forty singers and the organ. On either side of the platform will rise stairs five feet wide to the gallery. On 10th street, at the north end of the church, will be the pastor's study, and o2 the opposite siae the church the sexton’s room. Under the whole builaing there is to be a 7 feet cellar, in which there is to be a kitchen, with the necessary appointments, and a dumb waiter, so arranged with trap doors in the fioors and adjustable guides that it can be run from the cellar to the upper room, if required. In a partof the cellar, and accessible from one of the vestibules under the stairs, are water- closets for ladies, children, and gentlemen. The rest of the cellar will be used for the gen- eral ve peg of fnel and furnaces. The ceil. ings will be fiat, aud the main auditorium will be lighted from the openings in the ceiling. The church, including the gallery, will seat about 1,500, and by filling the spaces in the corners and the aisles wiih seats, and opening the lecture room, level with the gallery, the available sittings may be increased to about 2,509 The estimated cost of the building is $61.000, not inehuding. Nepting, upholstering, or furnaces, or the cing of the lot. This estimate, from tbe best information we can get, aud at the rate of coutracts already let for the excavation and foundation, is qnite Bigh enough. By leaving off the portion of the main tower abeve the roof, the fencing, and some other things that can be dispensed with | for the proeen", the building can be completed | for use for abont £50,000. | The plans were furnished by Mr. H.
