Hall called the meeting to order, and on his motion Hon. A.S. Riddie took the cha, Mr. Riddle retarned his thanks for the com- plim and stated that as he understood the chject ot the meeting it was to select delegates tothe Border State Convention to discuse mat - ters of importance to the loyal element in the Border States. Maj. Hall nominated W.H. Lewis, of the First Ward, as Secretary, elected. Major Hall stated that all understood the object of the meeting, and, having organized, tbe next thing to be done was to meet that ob- ject. He moved the appointment of a commit. ‘ve of seven to recommend delegates to the convention, The motion was adopted, and the Ohair an- nouncing that he was ready to receive nomi- nations, the following were named :—O. S. ker, First Ward: G. A. Hall, Second Ward; Dr. Borrows, Third Ward; JH. Crossman, Fourth Ward: A. P. Clark, Fifth Ward; J.C. Dulin and W.H. Brown, Sixth Ward; 8.8. Baker, Seventh War Mr.S.S. Baker was about to propose that five should be relected from each ward. * Mr. Boswell suggested that two from each ward be selected. Mr. Lewis (colored) inquired whether the call included Georgetown, The Obair replied that he thought not. Major Morse said that he bad been in com- munication with those who bad called the convention, amd they expected a delegation of 11 least one Rundred Major Hall moved that the number and loca. ticu be left to the discretion of the committee. Mr. O.S. Baker said that it was generally expected that the number of delegates trom | be Listrict would be large, and at this partic. | T juncture it was advisable for a large del- | stion to go. There would be but little time otice to those appointed, and as it 1s hard- possible that all appoin'ed will go, the num- ber should be large. Some will be under the | restricuon of the powers who circulate proc- | matious in the Departments. The delegation should be large enongn to represent ail sec- tions of the city and the entire loyal element. He hoped that the meeting would name a umber. er some further debate, the committee were Instructed to name five from each ward, ind Mr. Jrulin not being present, the name of WH. Brown, colored, was sunstituted Mr. J. S. Brown suggested that as te notice would be short to Celegates, that the commit- -e should, as far as possible, make a choice of those precent. Msjor Hall said that he had no objection to the suggestion being adopted, but to adopt it motion would look too much likea mu- tosl admiration society. ‘The Comittee retired, and Mr. H. ©. Dane, of Lewsiana, was called on to address the meeting, and In response said that it was well that they had met at such a time as this when there was so much need of action by the joyal men ofthe Border States. We stand in the most perilous position with the head of the Government, who they had élevated to power. vd ue could turn the power against them, nd he believed he intended to do it or attempt i. He had turned traitor to the party who had placed him in power, and now stands in e same position Jefferson Davis stood in ven years ago: and with his advisors he be- eved that he was now plotting against the yal element. Finding that he could not andle the Secretary of War, he had him turned out, and pucin Ris place one who he ought from his position he coald manage, | nt failed, and had done the same in the case Sheridan. He counselled that they should | be calm and determined to siem the tide— e crisis hus come, or will come by the time for the meeting of Congress. believed that Congress would do this | session what they should have done twenty- cur months ago. The White House, which bad been made not only & nest of thieves, but narlois, should be cleared out as the rabble d been cleared out of the temple. Taney jould send men who will represent the Re- ublican party, for a fearful straggle is immi- nent. The eyes of twenty millions of people were row on the Republicans of Washington. and would be at the convention in Baltimore. and they should go up with the determination to put down the rebellion which is now worse ‘oan when the traitors acted openly. The juestion Was now, life or death; we must kill he monster or We must die; we must decide wbether they die or we die. (Applanse.) While Mr. Dane was speaxing, Mr. 0. S. Waker, from the committee. asked authority to increase the number of the delegates to ten, which was granted Mr. J. Sayles Brown offered the following: Whereas it is now a recognized fact thai here is im the District ot Columbia a well- rganized and efficient Republican party—a party composed of a majority of the legal voers of the District: and whereas this party has been brought into existence and is now main- tained by a class of loyal and patriotic men. who desire to see a political sentiment in the ascendancy at the capital of the uation hostile to treason, fo the caste and injustice engen- jered here by slavery, and hostile to all ine togmas and usurpations of the rebellion; a sen. timeut that will sustain tne courts of justice in © administration of the laws, and will pro- ‘eet judges, legislators and civil officers gen- er from intimidation and assault in the ‘uscharge of their duties, and render it practi- able to empauel impartial jurors to try noto- rious criminals for the highest crimes and mis- meapors known to ciVilized society: and whereas these loyal Republicans baye sus. ained these principles and this party at a heavy personal sacrifice, many of them 1osing pesitions wander the present Administrat on, bere suffering from the ruin of their bust: ness by hostile combinations against them: Therefore, Keseloed, That justice and sonnd policy re- juires ot the Republican party that they hould choose for its places of trust and confi sence, and bestow its patronage and employ- saent upon those whose sacrifices and earnest veal for the cause is a guarantee of their patri- otsm and devotion to Republican principles. Kesolved, That the locat offices connected ‘with the government of the District should be hlied by competent and worthy citizens of the Instrict, and net by citizens of distant States who bave no claim upon them. Resolved, That we call upoe all true Repub- licens here Who have in their gift patronage and employment, to bestow it upon true men wbo labor for the trae interest of the national government and the federal District Mr. A. Watson asked if the resoluuon wei »phicable to local officers who had been ap: pointed. Mr. Ed. Ambush, colored, moved theiradop- on. Mr. Brown sad that there had been a time ‘when there were not enough loyal men here to 711 the offices, but thar there were enough now, nd as the Republicans had changed the senti- ent which Bad been largely disloyal, they had a claim on Republicans of Congress. They should now ask Congress to sustain them, and if they were not patronized they ould not hold the power. 1t was not right and proper that persens shotld be looked up in Nebraska and other distant places to fill offices in the District. The resolutions were unanimously adopted. The Secretary asked if the resolutions were »plicable to the clerks in the City Register’s colored, and he was 2 Invings......1 2 3 4 5 6 7 Potomac. 2 1 5 # 2 o16 | UnitedStates0 0 = § 12 2 4 19-38 Me, and stated that he bad been informed ‘ata colored man had been appointed in that Mice, but @ copperhead had been put in his place. Mr. A. Watson suggested that the Republi- cu Association reorganize, urging that the vmportance of the qoseions now before the country demanded jt: aud that they should prepare lists of the disloyal persons in Govern- ment employ.

Herron & Ohurch have just finished two very fine thrée story bricks on F street, between 6th and 7th streets, and have also made some very hat ‘im ments to the Page Mansion. Mr.C. 8. Oburch is also having & block of five very haddsome three- story brick dwellings erecied on F street, be- tween 6th and 7th aireets, two of: which, we understand, are for Captain John V.

Mr. Charch is aleo negotiating for the erection of a block of seven handsome three-story brick dwellin, on 6th street, between Fand G, it being his in- tention. if possible, toerect blocks of buildings around the entiresquare. This is the finely 1o- cated square known as the Page property, on ‘7th atteet, between G & H. This improvement will no doubt prove @ good investment for the enterprising projectors. Mr George Mattingly, we understand, also contemplates ‘the erection of a block of five large and handsome dwelling houses on 6th street, opposite St. Dominick’s Church, of the same style of those to be erected b, Mr. Church. Elsewhere, throughout this part of the city, we notice new buildings im progress of erection and other works of entetprise. The survey of the river channel by the Govern. ment, now in progress, gives promise that something will be done by Government tor the impravement of the channel Not onty will South Washington be the gainer by this im- provement of the river channel, but every part of the city will teel the Benefit of it. Deeper ing the cbannel is the surest, best and cheay est mode of securing ample drainage for entire city. A little artificial aid will throw the whole volume ot the Potomac on the Washington shore, bringing down a body of water (now spent oyer the surface of the flats) that will so deepen the channel, that not only can ships pass up through itto Georgetown, but the drainage of the city be improved, and the malarial flats on the river front, near the White House, replaced by a body of deep ranning ‘water, greatly to ihe benefit of the health of the city. The value of property along the entire river front all the way to Georgetown will, of course, be greatly enhanced by the improvement in qu)stion. aceseaieggE Si THE GREAT Show 18 In TowN.—Van Am- burg’s great Menagerie, in conjunction with Dan Castello’s famous show, numbering in ail, itis said, three hundred men and women, is in town, and altogether makes a grand com- bination.

It is hardly necessary for us to rec- ommend our readers to go and see for them- selves, as stich a combination will draw here without doubt. The procession this morning was very five, and the lon at large, the cam- els and their riders, tue elephant, and the brilliant display made by the male and female equestrians in their richly decorated costames, were all features of attraction. as NEw BUILDING ASsoclaTIon.—At a meet- ing of the newly organized “West End Build- ing Association,” held at the school house on sorb street, near H street, on Tuesday eve- ning, the following were elected as the board of directors: Wm.
