On taking the chair, Mr. Oliver said: For some time past the pro- ject had been on foot to form a building asso. ciation te be controlled by temperance men, and bis meeting was for that purpose. Mr. G. P. Hopkins said the object of the call Was lo form an aseoctation to be composed of mea OF limited means who desired to norrow <.oney and participaie in the profits of the as. sociation; in order to do that the association must be formed on a different plan from the old associations, probably on the co-: pian.

Mr. Z. B. Brooke saia he desired to correct n erroneous impression that this aesociation Was to be formed ona iem ce basis. It Was not proposed to exciude those who were not temperance men. Mr. G. P. Hopkins suggested that one from each temperance division be appointed to so- licit subscriptions to the stock. Dr. Clark said the object was not to exclude temperance men, but to confine the stock to ‘hem 8s much as possible. Mr. Jno, B. Whe-ler suggested that it would © proper to select a name for the association. and efier consultation it Was decided to cail the same “The Temperance Building and ‘Trust Association of Washington, D. 0.” A number of gentlemen then signed the roll, agreeing co take stock. among whom were W. hi.

Sevage suggested that the associa- tion be formed so as to compel members to keep their pledge, or ifa member shonld break hts pledge he should forfeit something. The motion of Mr. Hopkins to appoint a | committee to prepare a constitution was adopt. d, and the Chair appointed G. P. Hopkins, Dr. Clarke, Wm. Towers, Geo. A. Bassett, and A. Camppell. 1t was agreed that ail those present should visit the various temperance organizations. «nd solicit subser:ptious to the stock: and on motion the meering adjourned until uext Mon- Gay evening. g a New Structure ened for Trarel—The new bridge known a3 Benning’s Bridge, over the Eastern Branch, out H street, Nas just been compieted and opened to the public. The old bridge was ori- simally built im 1825 by Capt. Benning (from whom it derives 1's name) as @ toll bridge, and so continued until 1*57, when it was purchased by the General Government. Some time ago, Gen. Michler, in charge of the public builds imgs, grounds and parks. conderaned the old bridge as unsafe for travel, and ordered it to be torn down and a new one erected. This hes been done under the immediate superin- ‘endence of Major Lubey. On examination, the piles were Jound to be perfect below the water. and were cnt off at low water mark snd beavy sills morticedon. From these sills Tise O&k posts, which are capped.with heavy mobers, and these are braced with diagonal ak braces, and end braces from cap to sill, ali of which are bolted with wrought iron. ‘The stringers are of the best yellow pine, and tbe flooring of three-inch oak plank. The whole lengih is 654 feet, m_ spans of 25 feet, with @clear carriageway ot 20 feet, protected | by a handsome and firms side rail. ‘The abut- menis bave been raised three feet above the oldones. Inthe construction of thiz bridge. 124,00 feet of timber aud over @ ton of wrought iron was used. It has been constructed with a view of veing safe against all freshets and ice. The whole superstructure reflects great credit on the officer in charge of the public | buildings snd grounds, and is said to be the beat job of the kind in this section of the coun- try. | een Leen wae PRESENTATION OF FLAGS.—Last night, a | Rumber of ladies and gentlemen assembled at the residence of Major John Watt, adjoin- ing his refreshment saloon, at the foot of Sixth street, to witness the presentation of flags to tbe owner of the yatch Robert E.

From the fact that they had such @herculean task for men so situated before them, it is not supposed that they thought of digging out, but that they went at this work simply because they bad nothing else todo. They succeeded admirably in ren- dering the cell an extremely unpleasant one, and the warden this morning very coolly in- formed them that as they had placed them. selves in so disagreeable a fix they could re- main in it. ————_ Orrians’ CovRrtT—Judge Purcell.—To-day’ the will of the late John W.

A notice on the door “That taxes are not 9 receivable,” and that the Collector would give netice in the papers when he was ready to receive the same, had the effect of thinning ont the crowd. ——o——_ THE BcILpERs’ ExcHANGE.—The adjourned meeting of the Builders’ Exchange, heid last night at the office of Mr. Henry R.
