Mr. Barr introduced structing the Drainage Commit- amine the defectivedrainage at the cor- mer of fith strert west and H street north, and fo report a bill to remedy the defect: passed. The special order—being the bill authoriang the laying of concrete pavement for foot ways— wae passed. Special order—being the bill to prohibit the sale of unsound oysters—was referred to the Committee on Police. Mr. Richards called up the bill requiring the eapense of construction of sewers and pavin, of carmageways to be paid out of the genera’ of ward funds, and advocated its passage length, saying that such improvements were a tenefit to all, and ali property benefitted should Dear a share of the expense. He referred to the sewer built on Mth street about two years ago, and its defective construction, saying it had been ruptured in two places, and bad never been approved asa whole. All of the Second Ward been benefitted by that improve- ment, and the ward should pay for {t, and not the people only who own property om 1ith street. He boped the adverse report of the Fi- Bane Committer on the bill would be set aside, and that it would be passed. Mr. Given, from the Finance Committee, de- fended the action of the Committee in case of the Mth street sewer, and said the law of Con- gre<s was explicit, plain, and imperative. He Fead from the charter of 120 and the act of Congress approved February 2th, 156, to show that this Corporation bad no discretion, ut that the cost of building sewers and paving earrings ways must be paid py the owners of the lots fronting on the streets in which the im- Provements are mace, beautifying said pro- | perty.

He (Mr Given) | thought, however, the property holders on 14th | | } i | | ight to haye some relief from payment from the sewer in question, but this Corpora. tion ought not to be made a party in any Htiga- bon in reference to it Mr. Richards wanted to know if the Corpo- ration was going to repudiate the debt due the contractors for that portion of the 14th street sewer not yet approved. If se, why compel the Property-owners to pay to the Corporation fer | ‘Work the city authorities will not pay for. But | we work, although not doge according to con- tract, will have to be paid for, a= it was tapped by the city before it was finished. He contended that the law of Coagress did not prevent the passage of the bill introduerd by him, to make all property benefi:ied by improvements pay for the same. Mr. Elvans asked if the 1ith street sewer had not been tapped, and was not now being used by the very property-owners who were pro- testing against being assessed to pay the con- tractor for the work? He also wanted to know how the gentleman was going to determine ‘what property thronghout the city was beae- fitted by the sewer, and how the expeuse is to be apportioned. The act of Congrées provides the only practicable mode of making the assexs- ment. Mr. Moore stated bis objections to the bill, nd after further debate the commitiee was dis. charged from its further cousideration—yeas 30. nay I—Mr. Richards. Mr. Turton presented the petition of David Hunter, asking permission to erect an iron rail- ing in front of his premises, on I street, in the First Ward, and introduce « bill granting the privilege asked for: referred to the Committers on Police.

Mr. Turton said be would accept anything to gets general system of sewerage, which he had been trying to do for four years pu: ‘Mr. Moore thonght that practical and expe. rienced engineers should have charge of such an important matter.

He said that doubtless members bid heard of thie most brutal outrage committed Dy the em- Ployees in question. He was well sequainied with that lady. and had reeently visite! her, when he feund ber ina mot emiciated condi- Lon, her head braeed, eyes blac and swolten, arms and wrists mangled by the treatment she bad ree ived from the hands of two brutal meu who dragged her from the cars and beat her for eleven minutes. The common feelings of hu- erm should induce ihe Gouneil to condmn thie act. Mr. Slowen asked if this «ubjee: was not now betore Congress. Mr. Baker replied that it wae, and also before the court. Mr. Arrison said he would yield to no one in cond+ mation and detestation of such outrages, but he could not tee what effect the resolution would have on the parties: it would be bat 4 trutem fumen, and the parties would simply laugh ‘at tbe resolutivn. All political condemned personal violence, and as this act Lappened outside of the city, it would be just as roper for the Board to express its opinion on commitied at any other 3 ‘Mr. Ball remarked that all offences against law, and cases of viownce, were condemned by the community, but over this matter the Board had no control, and the passage of the resolu- ton would make the Board appear ridiculous. He boped that it would be laid on the table. Mr. Crocker said that he had seen a letter of the secretary of the road, from which itappears bat the officers and rietors of the road are not responsible for the outrage, for it was now in the hands of receivers appointed by the courts, one appointed by a Judge Thomas, who nous. In bis opinion the Board should put its seal of condemnation on the act. He thought the civil rights bill had se- cured personal rights throughout the land, but this outrage wus committed in sight of the capitol. Mr. O. S. Baker said that as the Board was not full, aud for the purpose of having a full expression of opinion, he would not press it to & you, and would consent te its nement. The resolution was therefore postponed, and the Board adjourned. —- FUNERAL OF Mrs. Evst:§.—The funeral of Mrs. Louise Morris Eustis, only child of W. W. Corcoran, Eaq., took place after- noon from the residence of her father Latayette Square. “It will be remembered that Mrs. Eustis died in Europe in December last of consumption, after a residence there of sey- eral years. The spaci ions residence of Mr. Cor- coran was crowded by the relatives and friends of the deceased, gathered to pay the last sad tribute to her memory. Thr orphan children from the different asylums here, to whom Mrs, E. had always been 4 true friend, were assem- bled, and their mourning for one whom they so dearly loved made the scene one of saduess, ‘The remains, enclosed in a metallic coffin, were placed on a pedestal in the centre of the north parlor. The voffin was encased in wood, covered with black silk velvet, and studded with silver ornaments. On the lid, surround- ing the massive silver plate inscribed » Louise Morris Eustis, born March 20th, 1838. Died December 4th, 1567," was a chaste wreath of hyacinths. Above this was an exquisite little cfows of mignonette towers, from which radi ated garlands and chaplets. forming a beanti- fal combination of floral adornments. The tuneral services were impressively conducted by Rev. Dr. Pinckney, rector of the Episcopal Church of the Ascension: atter which, he de- livered a short address, alluding to the life and character of the deceased in the most feeling manner. ‘The coffin was then remoyed to the hearse by the pall-bearers, Messrs. J. B. H. Smith, Col. James G. Berrei, James M. Carlisle, Geo. W. Riggs, Dr. John B. Binke, General Park, Dr. Thomas Miller, Colonel R. D. Cutts, William A. Gordon, Major Lee and Mr. Harrison. The remains were taken to Oak Hill Cemetery and placed in the mausoleum. The funeral cortege was one of the largest ever seen in Washing- ton, and was attended by members of the Diplo- matic Corps, Senators. Representatives, execu- tive and corporate authorities, and many of our first citizens, who deeply sympathized with the father in his hour of affliction. posBestesg cae terday, about 6 p.m., offiver veuth precinct, discovered a fire om the premises, Louisiana avenue, opposite oth street, eccupied by Mr. J.G. Naylor as « carpenter shop and Mr. T. A. Brown as a paint shop, and rin to police headquarters, from which the alarm was rung. The Fire Department was quickly on the spot, and succreded in confining the flaines to the premises, and also in saving some of the material in the building. There There was quite a large lot of work on the back part of the lot, which was totally destroyed, as also some work in the shop, and this, with the to the building, which was owned by Mr. Naylor, will occasion a loss of frora $5,000 tw $7,044 to him, on which there is no insurance. Mr. Brown loses over $1,000, The office ad- joining, ocenpied by Mr. Asbury Lloyd and Gen.

McKenna, The fire was cansed by the burning of a pile of wood which was placed behind the stove to dry. The flames were extinguished before they had gained much headway. At#45 this morning an al was sounded from the seventh precinct (Fourth Ward) sta- tion, by Officer Wallace Grant, for a fire in po Hotel, (Indiana avenue and 2d street,) which originated in the servants’ room, in the third story. The firemen were quickly at work and extinguished the flames. The tarniture in some of the other rooms were damaged by the water, The whole loss will not be more than $500. New Co-Urenative Movenest.—Shveral persons met last evening at Temperance: Hall to organize the “Union Co-Uperative Land, Homestead, and Deposit A-sociation.” Mr. A. K.

Ma,or W.S.

Crocker, President of the Grant Club, who stawd that they were now celebrating the first substantial victory of the rebellion, Renator Yates, of Ill, was the first «penker introduced, and he proceeded. to of the coming Presidential contest, and of his pleasar: in being one of the firstto hit his yoice in favor of the capturerof Donelson and demolisher of Andiew Jolnson, He felt assured that on whe had gallantly upheld the flag of bis co try could not tur traitor to the boys in blow. He argued at some length that the success of the Democratic ty would open every imue which had been settind by arms. The speaker said it made bim proud t remember thathe had signed his name (o the eommission of Ulysse= S.

The world will hold this quiet, plain ublican greater than Alexander, Tr, or Napoleon. Governor Yates then spoke in favor of Senator Wilson's ¢laim for the Vice-Presidency, aud was inter- rapted by loudapplause, and closed by saying that with Grant and Wilson the Republican ecelumn would be pushed forward to victory aud the country redeemed and regenerated. Senator Wilson, of Mass. was next intro- duced, and after ‘speaking of the first Grant vietory, which they were celebrating, and the crowning victory—the surrender of Lee—said that the great captain of modern times is to marshal patriots to victory in the coming cam- pawgn. He believed that ihe Republican party Would nominate Grant, and elect him by thirty eutof the thirty-seven States, and give 100 ma- jority in the House of Representatives to sus- tain his administration. After speaking of tho workings of the Temocratic leaders in bringing about the rebellion, which the Union peopl» had ended, he said the Republican party could not be made to betray the country or suffering humanity, ‘The Union is to be restored on the basis of the equal rights of all citizens, and if it takes all summer and the coming au(umu, the fight will beon that line. Congress will sta: session perhaps until that time, and, in fact, Congress had a kind of liking for Washington city as long as Andy Johnson staid at the White House. [Laughter.) Tennessee and Missouri were already in their places, and Alabama would in afew days be admitted, not withstand- ing the hue and ery of enemies. He bad re- ceived letters from that State, showing that gross injustice had been done, and it was of such a nature that it would justify Congress in bringing in Alabama at once. Arkansas would in a few days cast her lot on the side of loyalty, and the other States would soon fol- low. “When this work is completad, and when General Grant is President of the United States, with a Cabinet formed of men like Ed- win M. Stanton, and men holding office who fought for the country, with all these surround- ings the rebel element will sink to the depths from which it sprang. What is needed isa free Republic, united, and with all its citizens pos- sessing equal rights, equal privileges and equal protection, “He spoke of the services of E. M. Stanton, Jos«ph Holt and Gen.

They are for liberty at home and abroad: they do not arise in Congress and sneer ata dow atrodden race, aud how! about the Consti- tition, and with tue same breath talk about the rights of American citizens abroad, The Repub lican party will yote for the rights of the black man in AJabama, Louisiana and elsewhere, and for the rights of the Iri<hman in Ireland. This is the line that the party intend to fight it out upon, with that great leader, (General Grant, Those whocannot come up’ to that standard had better “Johnsonize” and follow »our Moses.” Andrew Johnson was a sort of Bull Run, for there was nota man in the country but that felt proud of that battle-tield.

Srrick apsned the case to the jury, con- tending that Williams was the proper party to sue, and not Hughes, Denver & Peck, who Were only in the same category with Taylor, counsel in the case. Mr. Riddle and Mr, Beadley followed for defendant. The Court modified bis instructions granted — for the plaintiff, with these modifications : ‘The first instraction asked for by the plaintif is granted with the following qualifications: ‘That, so far as any contract between the parties related to services to be rendered by the plain- tif in obutining an order or the influence of the President to haye the decision of the Secre! of the Treasury reversed or reopened, thro the means of an opinion of the Attorney Gene- ral to be pre} and brought to bear upon the Secretary. such contract was contrary to public policy, and void. But that this objec- hon dors not apply to any contract between the parties for services to be rendered by the plain. tiff in preparing papers or getting up proof and arguments to be laid before the Attorney General, provided such contract was anew contract, made subsequently to the first, aad after the reference to the Attorney General had been made by the President in this case. If. however, there was but one agreement, em- bracing the services of the plaintiff, first, in procuring an order from the President to the Attorney General, requiring an opinion from the latter, by means of which the decision of the Secretary of the Treasury might be r-opened et aside against the judgment of said Se nd without any like request fro Secretary to the Attorney General: and, sec- ond, for services in carrying out this object. after the reference to the Attorney General had been made by the President, then the contract being entire, is wholly void, the sound portion being tainted by the corruption of the unsound. To which instructions, as modified by the Court, plaintiffs counsel excepts, and prays the Court to sign and seal this first bill of excep- tions, which was done accordingly.

Although the colored people micht pray for thrir enemies, yet when at comes t a vote the matter was Cntirely differen, The Conservative party were always attempt allure the colored man from the pth of duty, and cause bim to hold on a while longer; but the time had sow arrived when their couanels should not be heeded. The Radical pacty was the crowd to enlist in, and as anit such mea should te snpperied, He thought tuat the anti. Radicals bad never redeemed any of the pied ges made tbe colored people; for thirty years he Lad trusted them, but dhey had decived him, and now he+hould do his best for the great Radical party. Mr. Ferguson continued at som eth, and concluded with an earnest app. il to bas colored bearers to go to the polls cext Monday and tupport the men for offices who Were their fricnds Hon. Mr. Ela, of New Hampshire, was intr» Guord t the meeting, and advocated the cause { Radicalism. He began by referriug « tae tritures made by the Georgetown Courwr upon bis speech made at the meeting of Tauce day mebt, commenting upon the same at some ength. Universal suffrage should, he thought, © awarded to colored man, and eve-y other privilege of sitiwenship shvuld be co. teded him. ‘fhe Republican party bad. brea acctised of incontistency in not advooating the Tight of Indians to citizenship as well as the negroes; but be would inform his opponents that the Indians vere recognized asa distinct nationality, and ihe Government did not pre- tend to exercise any jurisdiction over them, Local matters, he siid, were something which he should not pretend to interfere with: but be would, nevertheless, advise the colored people at the eneuing election to vote judiciously and put the best man among their own party t Office. He exhorted them to live uprightly honestly, be industrious, ave their earnings. buy themselves houses, and thereby not ouly be happy in this’ world, but in the onetocome. The «peaker drew a contrast be- tween the Republican and Democratic parties, in which the principles of the former were pictured in glowing colors, while the lauer Party embodied doctrines of the most despica- le and destructive character. The Democratic party had been for years trampling upon the Tights of the colored man, while the Radical party maintained their right to the same Joyment As other citizens. The history of par- ties generally was remarked upon, and the de. duction drawn that all the evils’ which bad been visited upon the country were attributable to the Democratic party. They had plotind treason, robbed the public treasury, burned down churches, massacred innocent citigeus, organized the Knights of the Golden Circle tor the purpose of aiding the rebellion, an con mitied every imquity which could be thous of; while the escutcheon of the Radical party was pure and unsullied. After occupying the floer for over an hour, he gave way for Dr. ©. H.
