Mr. Chase read an article in the Intelligencer of the 3d instant, headed “Lazy Contrabands versus Resident Colored People,” and argded that this was a@ baitto catch the votes of the old residents, and he denounced the articie as sbamefnt Mr. Given (colored) followed in a speech, showing that the object of the article is to effect a division among the colored voters, so as to destroy all. He thought it a smart dodge, but not smart enougn to effect its purpose.

Florence made a few remarks, in the course of which he said that he could not account for the apathy of the people of this city on the eve of the most important election ever held, in which it was their duty to triumph over their adversaries. They were nureing in their midst vipers—not copper- heads—[applause and laughter]—who, pro- fessing to be friends, smell the carrion from afar off, and after feeding on it turn and sting the band which feeds them. [A Voice—“The Star,” and laughter.) He would net mention names. Colonel John K. Zeigler, of Philadelphia, ‘Was introduced and commenced by saying that he obeerved that they had carried the war into Africa, being separated from the Africans by &emall partition. (The Secend Ward Repub- licans were meeting in aroom in the same story of the building —Rrp.] He wasglad they ‘were 60 separated on account of the scent. {Laughter.] He urged that the Conservatives must triumph and not allow this eleetion to gO by deiault. The Radicals caiculate it they are successful here to force negro suffrage on the North, and W. D. Kelly and Thad Stevens were waiting the resnit of the experiment here to commence in Pennsylvania. After speak- ing of Stevens as a cloven toot demon, and contending that it was the Democrats who filled the army while the Republicans dealt in shoddy. &c., and made money during the war, he urged that the Censervative element should support Andrew Johnson [applause] and so defeat the Radicalsthat they will give up all hopes of forcing their schemes further on the people. Col. S. Snider Leidy, of Pa., next adaressed the meeting, charging that the 39th Congress bad actually laid a message of the President on the tableand appointed 15 conspirators to centralize power. a Dr. Charies Allen was introduced, and read letters received from Mayor Wallach, John T. Given, John E Norris, and John S. Hollings- besa The letter of Mayor Wallach is as fol- lows: Mayor's Orricg, Ciry Hat, Washington, D.C., May 21, i867.—To Jas. W. Barker, Chair- man and Treasurer; Frederick As Aiken, A Dodge, J. P. Crowley, and others, Executine Committee :—I have the honor to acknowledge the receipt of yours of yesterday, covering & resolution of the Democratic and Conserya- tive executive committee, inviting me to pre- side at the mass meeting to be held by the Dem- ocratic and Conservative eitizens of Wash- ington, at Woodward's Mall, on the evening of the 2itb inst., and expressing the hope «that, if in my judgment it be not inconsistent witn my ideas of an impartial administration ot my official dutjes te "\Novement my sanction and support. Ishkali certainly vote for and unequivocally, as far as comporis with the character of a private citizen, support for the positions for ‘which .bey are respectively named the gentle- men to promote whose election the move- ment’ to which you invite my sanction and presence is inaugurated. I cannot, however, during my official term, without deviation from a rule fixed tor myself, rigidiy se far adhered to, and as you, from your letter, seem to suppose, ‘consistently with my ideas of propriety, participate in a public political meeting.” With my thanks for the honor intended me, and tbe hope that my reasons for declining it will be properly appreciated, 1 am, gentle- men, your obedient servant, RicHaRD WALLAcH. Dr. Allen proceeded to speak, claiming that the question was now as to whether they would permit these squatters to rule, or whether those whose property is intrusted should rule, and that there should ve united action which would ensure adefeat of the Radicals. He spoke of the nominees of the convention as being beyond reproach. Mr. Aiken offered resolutions inviting the co-operation of all the Qonservative and Democratic voters, securing a triumph forour constitutional form ef gevernment; express- sing confidence in the candidates, and de- claring it the duty of all true friends of the Union to reject all attempts to divide the Con- servyative vote; and endorsing Andrew Jonn- son as the true friend of the Union; which, on motion of Col. Florence, was adopted. Mr. Florence was again cailed on, and ‘urged that there was so much at stake that every man should do his duty, and they should not scratch the ticket, He enlogized the administration of President Johnson, and spoke of the Commissioners of Registration, or Judges of Elections, as making great pre- tentions of being triendsot a free ballot, yet they were doing nothing tewards it. The Court had decided (and he honored the Judges for their decision) that every man bad tbe right to be registered, yet mothing had been done. He spoke of the Oonrserya- tives as the true friend of the colored man: He epoke of the Star and Chronicle's course in the campaign, referring to the former asa viper, having fattened on the patronage of the District and turning to sting them. Of the two he liked the Chronicle best. for it was not governed by Mercenary motives. “« Dug’ was a good fellow personally, but he didn’t like bis course. [A voice.—‘:How about the reg- isters'?”] The registers had acted so tht they could not save their bacon no matter how they were planied. Referring to Judge Kelly, he said that Kelly took John Taggert’s nat at Mobile in bis haste to get off the stand, and compared his conduct with that of President Jobnson at Indianapolis, who did not dodge the pistol shots. At 11 o’clock the meeting adjourned, and roceeded to the Metropolitan, to serenade Fron Mr, Eldridge, of Wis., (headed by Heald’s band, who had remained in the hall daring the meeting and interspersed the proceedings with muéic,) to tender him a serenade; bat uhat gentleman not being present, they pro- ceeded tothe residence of Mr. Owen Thorn, where they were entertained. a While the meeting was in progress, the Sec+ ond Ward Republican Club was in session in the ‘adjo:ming room, and now and then a Re. publican (sometimes a colored one) would find bimself among the Conservatives. Not- ) withstanding the close proximity of the oppo- site elements no disorder whatever occurred, In leaving the hall Mr. Fiorence shook hands cordially with one of the colored men who had come into the meeting.

A prepossessing young lady, re- siding in west 37th street, New York, com- manded the attentions of two young men. one a Cuban, who is clerk in an importing house, and the othera student, residing with his pa- rents, both, it seems, of equally romantic and amorous propensities. In paying their visits to the young lady many uup easant encounters took place, which resulted in a hostile meeting one evening Inst week in @ billiard saloon on Broadway, which was adjusted by @ proposal to meet the young lady, who, by the way, is a Jewess, and have her final assurance on the important question.
