A LIVELY TIME—THE GO-BY GIVEN TO GRANT RESOLUTONS, Last evening, in pursuance to the following notice published in the datly papers, s largely «vended meeting, white and colored, was held tm the bati on rhe east eide of the fourth floor o£ Woodward's builoing: Arrestion. Reruntreaxs—There will ve a € of the Central Republican Association strict on Friday, the 2th instant, at ‘d's Hall, D street, between 10th and lith. it reorganize the lican Associ- ction of color or race, are cord sent and participate. A. G. Hai, Secretary, lt appeared at first that the meeting would be a smali ome but by half-past seven o'clock the Republicans, white and colored, commenced to pile in lively, and by eight o'clock, there were over one hundred present, about two-thirds being colored. Among those present, were Messrs. J. Ro EI. vans, Major H. A. Hall, Re Couxcilmen O.S. Baker, 8. 8. A. P. Otark, Major Morse, A. Boyd, James S. Martin, white ton, and M. Shinar, E. Ambush, Rey. A. Brown J. L.N. Bowen, E.S Atkinson, J. T. John- =n, of the colored portion.’ Before the meeting was called to order, there were many conjectures as to what was to be done and the manner of operating, and inquires were made as to the books of the old Association: but for a ime lo one could tell where they were to be found Mr. C. W. Barton, the former Financi- al Secretary, finally appeared and stated that the books Were at his house, and that they would be in the meeting shortly. A temporary organization was affected by Mr. Elvans, president of the old association, aking the cbair, and the appointment of Mr. 1. R. Arrigon, secretary. Mr. Elvans, on taking the chair, said he,as president dt last year, and for that reason only, considered it his duty to call the meeting te Crder temporarily until the meeting conld elect officers. The question would need to be sted, What relation will the Association | and to the Central Committee; was it de- | sygued that the Association should be national oF focal in its character. Mr. G. A. Hall moved that a committee of cue trom each ward be chosen to draw up a constitution and by-laws. Mr. O. S. Baker moved that the committee siso nominate officer: Mr. Hall said it was imamaierial to him as to whether efficers sbeuld be nominated by the committee; but thought that they should have constitution first. Mr. Baker said that the Association had a netitution. and although meetings had not en heid reguiarly, tbe constitution was not viniated. | Mr. Hall again suggested that they should | Usve a consti'uuon first. The Chair—t will pet the motion of Mr. | Saker as un independent one. | Mr. Charles King said that they should be | coverned by the call, which looked to him as (f it Was proposed Lo put aside the old consti- ition and ¢. need yore. He was opposed > Mr. Bager’s motion. and arged tha: they should haye s platform first. Major Morse said that the Central Committee | siormed by a delegated body, and that it vas not Competent for this meeting to vote it otexistence, The association to be formed 1 work under the old until the new one is rzanized. Mr. A. Watson snggested that officers be nomimated spontanecusly. He did not lite packing, and would oppose this Tig within 2 Ting. af 8 committer was appointed to seieci citcers, their Teport would be adopted, and “here would be cause for complaint The Chair said that be had used the term “chose” when speaking of the matter for the very reasons urged. and because he adopted ‘ue principle. the greatest good to the greatest . His idea was that no appointments should be made by the Chair. Edward Ambush (colored) said that when they inst met in this hall they bad appoinred | a central commities, im which they bad lodgea wll confidence, but if any were weak-kneed they shenld be ousted. Heconld not under- d how they are are to do business. 1s the entral committee detunct! Waat’s the mat- ter! He appealed for information germaim to the subject. Mr. W. H. Brown (colored) remarked that the cemtral commitice had been appointed by ibe convention, abd ibe commitive organized “By electing Major Hall chairman; and he asked 11 It was proposed to interfere with the powers of the committee. The Chair —That is now the question— whether to ignore the central committee or not. The d.fieulty appears to be that the pur. pose Of ibe meetuhg does not seem to be unde ‘ocd. 1tis to be determined whether the as- sociation is to be local or national. Major Hall said that the committee tvas sep- arate and distinct from this organization and i¢ Was not the business of that commitiee te call meetings of this character, bur to call convention, That committee Was independent and the meeting had no power whatever over ‘hat committee. 1: could not be wiped ont ex- cept by a regularly constituted convention with ail the wards represented as was the ease imibe convention which formed the com- mitee. This organization is a voluntarily organization. Mr. Watson sgain urged that the officers be nominated In open meeting. Mr. GA. Hall—-Don’t you think we had e the constitution and platform Hi He had no objection to the mode of se- lection indicated. Mr. Baker accepted Mr. Watson's sugges- tion. Mr. Watson said that the adoption of a con- tvutton might be postponed. lajor Muree suggested that they nada'ready hat of the great Kepublican “i e obiect Was to increase the Re- publican vote throughou: the country. Mr. U.S. Baker urged that the association had an object, but they had no right 10 tnter- tere wish the Central Committee. The object 8 the general good of the Republican party the District. The time for the annual elec- tion was upproaching. It, afterthe election of officers it is 1ound necessary to add to the con- stitution or detract from it, it could be done. If we siart on the preposition that we haveno helm or rudder, we will be wrecked: but they sbowld be prepared with anchors, &c, and hotd iget to their present anchorage grounds. Mr Atk ison, cofored, said from what had been stared in regard to the old constitu. or, he would like to bear it read. Toe Chair stated that Mr.G. A. Hall wasthe secretary. Mr. Hall.—The books are not here. Mr. Bar- ton bas them. Mr. Rarton —They will be here presently. Dir. Atkinson.—it strikes me that wo had beter wait until the constitution arrives Mr. Hall withdrew his motion to appoint his committee. Mr. T. B. Brown (white) moved that the old constitution be adopted antil otherwiee or- dered. The Chair put the question on Mr. Bates’ motion to go imto an election for officers, but was unable to decide, snd the vote was taken by tellers, (T. B. Brown, white, and J. T. obnzon, colored, tellers.) resulting 48 for and Against, jor Morse nominated J. R Elvans for President. Mr Elvyans declined, while thanking them for past iavors, and for presenting his name again for the presidency, stating that his of- Heil auties would prevent him from falfiling its duces acceptably, and that bis belief was (bat no macbine would run well when it was zoo long run by the same hands. He could not. avcept any other office than that of high pri- vate in the rear rank. F. A. Boswell, Major W. S. Morse, and J. P. Cook were pommated.

The Chair.—--That will be the rule arless otherwise ordered.” After some little contusion the voters passed between the tellers. One voter attempted to Fass through a second time, and on being stopped said he wished ‘to change his vote. 1. Baker announved that: PAssing through too fast the tallies e. a of the line did not agree. ‘Mr. Brown.—My tally stands— The Chair.—lt is improper to read it if another vote is to be taken Mr. Watson moved that the vote be by ballot.

Mr. Watson renewed bis motion to take the vote by ballot; agreed to. The Chair.—The reporters will furnish Paper. [Reporters.“Ob, come now, that won't do; you may stsy here votingall night!”} The vote was taker amid some confusion, and Dr. Boyd was seen passing around the Toom carefully counting the number present, apparently to check fraud in ballot stuffing n counting the ballots one of the tellers, Mr. Baker, said there were a number stuck togeth- er; be wished to know what should be done with them. Voices.—«Throw them out!” “What name ison them?" Mr. Baker said be bad not looked to see what name was upon them. The Chair said there was no donbt they must be thrown ont. Mr. Smith suggested that ali but one might be bisnk, and in that case they might have been thrown in inadvertently, and the ballot should be counted. A Voice.—“‘Throw them out!” Tt was decided to th-ow them ont. The resuit of the ballot was announced as follows: Major Morse, 23; J. F. Cook, 19; W. A. Cook, 43; G. A. Hall, 5; Charles Bliss. 6: W.

M:jor Hall.—«I generally select my com- pany when | travel.” (Great laugt‘er.| The Chair put the motion on the appoint- ment of 8 committee and it was fost. Tove Uhair addreseed the meeting in retiring tu. ‘proverb, « It is pleaeant to dwell together in unity.” In view of the recent clection=, it was evident they could not row afford to split | into factions in this city. It would require the:r whole strength to carry the city in the coming election, and all bickerings and per- sousl feelings should be do 1e away with until hey have revolutionized the city govern. ment. He felt certain that the act witnessed to vight—an opposiog candidate moviug to mave the election of his opponent unanimoas— Was an earnest for good. He invited Major Moree, as first vice president, to take the chair and make a speech. Major Morse. on taking the chair, was greeted with applause, rnd thanked them for the hor, assuring them that he would endeayor ‘© discharge bis duty the party of which they sre members. it is only by unity of action that the party will be able to secure the coun- try. ‘There must be concert of action, and ex- pediency should be sunk if they would win by Ged’s blessing. The apathy of the Republicans have encouraged the enemies o civil and religicus liberty. Lt isto prepare fo the June election that this association is formed, and the first echo of liberty which will inflaence the great struggle of next fall will then go forth. [A voice—*We did I: once snd will do it again.”} Atter all these re- jeicinge of the opposition, what have they done! In Maine they have gained nothing; in Pennsylvania, the empty honors of x Suprem+ Judge, which will be contested: in California the result showed that the party wil! not sus- tain corruption; in Ohio, while the resnit sbows that one of the truest friends of univer- snl liberty (Senator Wade) is deteated, it also sbowed that the doctrine of universal suffrage came within 27.000 of success, being that much reduction from (he vote of 4,000 againstit pre- viously, showing that the measure has a strength which can be relied on in fatore, The New York election would show that the peo- pl+ would not put rebels in power. The con. quered rebels bad not yet shown a disposition to abide by the laws of the country, but on the contrary to grasp power. The Democratic party is never to be restored to power, and the son is not yet born. whose grandchild will see tan power. [Applause.| No party tuat ap- held the rebels will be piacea in power. Mr. A. Watson offered the following rezoln- tion as a privileged question: solved, by the Central Republican Asso- mation ot Washington, D.C, That while Re- publicans everywhere are nominating Gen. Grant for the Presidency, lest we of the na- tional capital should seem to be derelict in duty, or wanting in gratitude to our immedi- ate cefender and the nation’s protector darit; a long and desperate contest tor the Union an Hberty, therefore we hasten to add our ap- proval to the epontaneous action of the loyal asses by nominating United States Grant fer President in the election of 1368; and may the peopie of the United States Grant to their de- fenders, m the name of their chief, a m ‘jority so vast that, during his four years of adminis. tration ef the Government, by a faith! cution of the laws passed py Congress, he be enabled to as effectually crush out the last of rebels and Copperheards, in their var against the nation’s life, as during the four years of command, at the head of our brave, pitriotic and devoted soldiers, he was epabled to crush out the rebellion in actual and open war for the disruption of the Union. Mojcr Hall said, while Deartily concurring tn much of the resolution, he thought it was not in order. Mr. O. S. Baker.—“1 move to Iay i table until atier the regular busines: eluded.” Considerable confusion prevailed. Mr. Ambush.—~ move a vote of thanks to Mr. Elvans. Mr. Atkinson.—“1 move that Hon. A. G.

Judge Oartter says that the act reposes the supervision of erecting 3 new ja! in the Sec- Tetary of the Interior under Certain qualifica- tions apd limitations of law, ang waile there is Bo" ular embarrassment on the part of this Court, in caatiensly authorizing a. legal arisdiction over this officer, and walle they eve itto be a judgment of Yourt; that where Congress, in the exercise of its legisiative powers, reposes the execution of that power with one the heads of departments, they make the exercise of that power amenable to the law, in all cases where the execution of the trust is not ofan executive character. The court had not come to the conclusion in this case frem & conviction that the law had been com- plied with, for, if the chargesin this compisint re true, there has been 8 gross, careless, and, indeed, a culpable disregard ofthelaw.
