BY READING MATTER ON EVERY PAGE SEE OUTSIDE FOR INTERESTING TELE- GRAPHIC AND OTHER MATTER. | BUILDING AND LAND ASSOCIATIONS. We lately made some notice of the building | Sssociation movement which is now so wide- spread as to promise to embrace nearly every person in the communiiy. The Co-operative | » Association plan is just now the popular ides, | tmough the old system, in practice here, is still | stoutly defended by men familiar with the ‘Workings of building associations as being simpler, and carrying out the American iden et quick work, by winding up in about hal toe time that the co-operative societies pro- pose todo. The latter. however, appeal with effect to the borrowers s+ enabling them to get more money per share, and affording a longer tume for repayment. Three Co-operative As sociations have been started here within the Jast week, and others are in embryo. It 1s proposed, in the case of the South Washingto:: Co-operative Building Associs- tion, te undertake the business of fire insu- ravce. Building associations require the in- surance of a large amount of property, and 1; is held that the association can do its own in- suring, and also at the same time de outside insurance business to advantage. The objec- tion is, that with the imperfections of human agency, complications may grow out of a mixed business of this kind. Lt would seem $obe necessary, also, to keep @ considerable Money reserve on hand to meet possible losses. However, in the charge of clear-headed men, like the managers of the South Washington Building Association, the experiment may ‘work well, and we presume they will diges; their plan thoroughly before entering upon it. Among the projects for Building Associa- tions mow on foot is one on the plan of the Unientown “Land and Building Company.” 4n this association real estate is sold to the stockholder through the company in the fol- Jowing manner: All property owned by the company must be held at an advance of twen- 1y-five per cent. upon its cash cost, at which rare it must be put up for sale if demanded by | two or more members, and recommended by the Board of Officers—tor instance, a house | costing $1,000 must be started at 81,250. Aly property is sold at the monthly meeting to the Highest bidder, unless the Supervising Com- | mittee have « higher offer fro-a outside parties: to be paid for in monthly instaiments for each one hundred dollars or fractional psrt thereof of the stockholder’s bid. Thus $1,375 would Tequire $14 fee monthly. Purchasing mem- bers accounts are balanced semi-annually» and six per cent interest on the amount of the stockholder’s bid deducted from the total ountof the monthly instalments paid in, (which may be as much in excess ofthe monthly | instalments required as the member desires,) | And the balance struck, upon which the suc. | ceeding half year’s interest will be charged. | In order that members may obtain | unes to build in accordance with theirown | plans and specifications,under the supervision of the association's building committee, or to | purchase real estate, 1t is provided that a ma- | jority of the members present at any regular | meeting may determine whether the money shall be sold, or invested in real estate. A Proviso is added, however, that the same course shall not be pursued more than two consecutive meetings, unless money does not bring twenty-five per cent., when it shall re- main to be invested, or sold at the next meet- ing. When the money is put up for sale it mustbe started at twenty-five per cent, and | sold to the highest bidder. Thus, astockholder | ‘wishing to get $1,000 cash, and buying at 50 | Per ceut. will have to pay $15 per month, and | ‘will be charged six per cent. en the amount of | his bid, viz: $1,500. A member owning a lot | aud desiring funds to build, is permitted to | oprain the Amounts paid in each month until | the full amount purchased is received by him: | ora member havingin view the purcaase ot | & particular piece of property may bid in suf- | Aicient to bay it, when, if it is accepted by the | company, itis bought in the name of the com- ypany’s trustees, and is held by them in trust unul the member has paid the amount of his | Did. Yet another association is in progress of | formation here on the general plan of the «Maryland Consolidated Land Company” of | Baltimore. it is proposed to style it the ‘Washington Consolidated Land Company | of the District of Columbia,” to be organized | tor the purpose of “purchasing, improving, | selling, leasing, and sub-leasing of land in the | city of Washington;” capital stock Imited to ©0,000; each subscriber to pay a weekly in- stallmeat of one dollar per share. no member te subscribe for less than five or more than titty shares. ‘The capital stock of the associa. | Lon ($500,000) shall be divided tato 1.000 shares, and payments by subscribers shall be co: tinve 1 weekly (at the rate of one dollar per | share) until the whole amount received by the assoc ation from subscription profits and a cum intions shall amount to tne capital stock p usenet ceeeareee rae THE NEw OrBRA.—The announcementof the first performance in this country of Benedict's | opera, the « Colleen Bawn,” by the Richings’ | troupe, at the National Theatre last evening, crew the largest house of the season. With the exception of a little nervousness on the age, and @ too critical coldness and natural timidity on the part of the audience, which restrained them from applauding some fine passages which in operas they are more fa- xniliar with would have called down the house, the performance was n great success. The opera follows the drama very closely, and contains many besutifal gems of melody. Which are certain to become popular in this country. We bave not space to speak of the merits of the several members ot the troupe, but must award them collectively the praiss Of having displayed a remarkable proficiency iu their ports on the occasion of the first per- formance of such an opera. It will be re- peated thie evening. ALEXANDRIA DELEGATE TOTHE Virgisia Cosvuntion.—At a meeting of delegates in Alexandria, ¥a., last evening, to choose a delegate from that city to the Virginia Con- vention, Messrs, Uharies Whittlesey, Lewis McKenzie and John Hawxburst were an- nounced as candidates. Six ballots were had | ‘without result. On the seventh ballot Whit- tlesey received 15 votes, Hawxhurst 11, and McKenzie 7, when the president announced that Mr. Whittlesey had been nominated. Mr. Burnett moved that the nomination be made | unanimous, which vote was carried amid some confusion.

The orders issued by the Secretaries of the | Treasury and Interior Departments, directing that the hours of business in those Depart- ments shall be hereafter from 9 &. m. woul 4 p. m., instead of from 9\® m. to 3 p.m.; has .caused considerable grumbling amongst the clerks who naturally are decidediy in favor of the «early closing movement,” and who hold that as much can be accomplished ta six hours asinseven, and tha! in a sanitary poiat of view the hour's relaxation in the afternoon, from three to four o'clock, isall tmportant for the health of the clerks. The matter of adopt- | yoga uniform system of office hours through- out the Departments came up in Cabinet meet- ing Tuesday, and an informal agreement was made to fix the hours in sll the Departments at from between 9a. m.toip.m. Tnefollow- ing provision of an old law requiring the Da- partmenis to be Kept open quring eight busi- ness hours ws produced at the Cabinet meet. ing. The fact that such a law is in existence seems to have been lostsightof. 1t was passed in July, 1936, and appearson page 464, Ist vol. Brightley's Digest of the Laws of the United States, from 1789 to 1959. 1! reads as follows. SECTION 24. From the firet day of the montn of October until the first day of the month of April ineach and every year, the General Land Office and all the bureaus and offices 88 well as aii those in the Depart. ments of the Treasury, War. Navy, State, and General Post Office, shall be open for the tiansaction of the public business at least eight hours ineacb and every day, except Sundays, and the 25th of December, and trom the Ist day of April to the lst day of Octover, in each year, all the aforesaid offices and bu- Teaus sBall be kept open for the transaction of the public business at least ten hours in each ane every day, except Sundays and the ith of uly. LOUISIANA. ‘The total vote on the Convention question in New Orleans falls two thousand five bun- dred and twenty-nine short of a majority of the number of the registered voters. The Re- publican of that city hss received tarther re- tarns from the ceuntry parishes indicating that a majority of the whole State have voted. This insures the assembling ef the Conven- tion, because the law provides that unlessa majority of the votes registered are cast at the election no Convention can be held, whatever may be the vote pro or con, but if the votes cast constitute a majority of even one ot the voters registered and a majority of said votes are for the Conveution, then it shall be held. ‘The complete registered returns for the State were: Whites, 44,723; blacks, $2,565: total, 157,528. Judging from the number of votes thus far cast against the Convention, which is very insignificant, there will bear overwheim- ing majority for ‘Tbe proportion of white voters is less than one inten. The prevalence of the yellow fever hae, no doubt, had much to do with the election apathy manifested. The next step under the law to bring Louisi_ ana into the Union is, that the General com- manding the department having opened the yarions returns and ascertained that the con- vention bas been carried, shall make a procla- mation to thateffect, and notify the delegates to assemble, stipulating the time and place. Upon convening, these delegates shall proceed to form a constitution, which, after being rati. fied by a majority of the qualified voters of the State, shall be presented to Congress. If the said constitution shall be declared to meet the requirements of the Keconstruction bill, the Tepresentatives of the State will be admitted to BALTIMORE POLITICS.-The Republicans of Baltimore last evening held primary meetings am the several wards for the selection of dele- gates to nominate candidates for Mayor, Judges. Clerks of Courts, Sheriffand State's Attorney; also, to choose delegates to repre- seni the city in the Republican State Conven- tion. Yesterday the Democracy of that city nominated John W. Davis for Sheriff, A. Leo Knott for States Attorney, and Simon J. Mar- tenet for City Surveyor. TigDemocratic Con- servative voters of the city are to hold pri- mary elections in the various wards to-day for the election of five delegates from each to meetin three separate conventions—one in each legislative district—to select six candt- dates for the Houee of Delegates and ene Sen- ator from each. The legislative conventions are to meet on Monday evening next. Tneex- citement rons high, and @ portion of a brick was thrown into the parlor window of Mayor Chapman’s residence last night, it is supposed by some of his political enemies. Fortunate- | ly none of the 1amily was injured. Tus TEIAL oF JEPrERSON DAvis.—Data’ of the Baltimore Sun, says:—«It has been tele- graphed hence that Jefferson Davis’ case was | considered in Cabinet yesterday. I am an- thorized to say that the statement is untrue. ‘The trial ot Mr. Davis 1s wholly under centrol of the United States Circuit court of Virginia and the District Attorney. The Administra- | tion has not interfered with the matter in any COMPENSATION FOR MAIL SERVICE.—The officers of the Post Office Department are now busily engaged in examining and adjusting the accounts for all mail service on railreads and steamboats performed during the quarter ending on September 30th, except those routes which are under contract with the Depart- ment. A large number of the claims are paid aaily by the Auditor, after being certified to as correct by the Post Office Department. ‘THe NAVY HABEAS CoRPvs Case.—The At- torney General was engnged all day yesterday in preparing an opinion in reference to the he- beas corpus case between the Philadelphia Coorts and Commander Selfridge for the Sac- retary of the Navy, and was denied to all vis- itors. The opinion will be finished and brought before the Cabinet on Friday. Little doubt is entertained that it will support the course taken. bg Secretary Welles.

Mr. Cooper temporarily discharged the duties of private secretary 1a3t year while awaiting admission to his seat in Congress, but will occupy the position permanently in Place of Col.

The ship which lies ‘bout eigbteen miles to the southward of this port having been under water for some time it is scarcely probable that anything more can be saved uutil October next, when the prevail- ing winds will be northeast, and directly op- posite to the monsoon now blowing. With this change I am informed the water about the wreck will become more shallow, smooth. and clear. There is now a high surf running, and the water is very turbid from the freshets in the Godayery river.
