Our Government has not only a Statistician, but its Statistician has a Statistical Society. which meets on Saturday nights at the City Hall, and listens to lectures on Statistics from the Statistic.an, whose name is Delmar——“Hon. Alexander Delmar, Director of the Bureau of Fatietics, Treasury Department, Washington, ‘The Hon. Alexander Delmar is President of the Statistical Society; we believe that he is also the Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, Librarian and Board of Bireciors. ‘Altogether, the Statistical Society is reputed to be a curious institution, and seeing it announced in the /n- teiligencer that the S. S. would meet, and be ad— dressed by its President. we dispatched a re- porter to the City Hall. From the iact that our T was cbarged fifty cents admission fee, he thinks that statistics must be looking uj the delighted grin with which the red janitor received the money gives occ:sion for doubt whether it was not the first and only ad- mission fee yet received. ‘The Statistical Society rallies in the Criminal Court room. On entering, our reporter found three male statisticians t, and two ladies ‘who wore spectacles, and having quite a siatis- tical appearance. may be set down also as sta- tistictans. the course of twenty minutes eight or ten more statisticians dropped in, in- cluding another Indy, Miss Josephine Grifiing, President of the Woman's Rights Association. The prisoner's dock was occupied by au old gentleman, who sat muffled up in his overcoat, aud bad & very comfortable nap during the lecture, turning bis nack, we regret to say, towards the honorable lecturer. The well- known seat of Mr. Middleton, Clerk of the Court, was occupied by Prot. Wilcox, of Mr. Delmar's Statistical Staff, a spectacled gentle- man, quite statistical in style and manner. The statistical business must be He came in with imtrodueed to another lady, then be got a seat for his lady, then he took off his overcoat, looked im the sleeves of his overcoat, held his overcoat up by the collar, put overcoat down, % of his hat, looked a bis bat in a statistical sort of ‘way, then placed his hat and overcoat on the iron’ register, contemplated them on the iron register, shook bis head, removed them to a chair, contemplated them in the chair, shook bis head, then removed them to a corner be- Rind the clerk’s desk, where he allowed them te remain. Then he proceeded to the lecturer's desk, arranged it, contemplated the arrange- ments with a dicsatisfied air, rearranged it, then came down to Mr. Middleton's seat, squared Bimeself towards the audience, then towards the Hon. A. D., then espying our re- porter he approached him, and taking the adja- cent chair seated himself on our reporter's new silk hat, which our reporter had paid six dol- Jars for, and which he to rescue, and only succeeded after a strenuous pull, and thea im 8 mashed and ruined condition. | Prof. W.. without making any apology for mashing 01 rocceded Teporter's new at, inquice, “What was, Ps to do you represent!" The repl “The Stan. = be yF then said: “Tell your people they have put their foot into it by pitching into Mr. Delmar.” Our reporter ed, “Ah, in- deed! “Yes, sir,” said the Protessor, you have charged Mr. Delmar with things which I wrote myself.” Our je answer, “So much the worse for you;” and inguired the gentleman's name. To this the Pro- fessor replied: “Professor Wilcox, of the cial Science Review. I stop at the Em) House. A note will reach me there.” Our Yeporter responded, that he was not aware that any person connected with the STAR Was anxious to address a note t. Prof. Wilco: at the Empire House, and that the authorship of the statistical matter referred to (and which | Teflected no credit on anybody) was claimed by Mr. Delmar in the pamphlet referred to. | Prof. Wilcox looked at our reporter with a dissatisfied expression of countenance, rubbed | Bis nose in an abstracted, statistical sort of way, and presently meandered off again to Mr. Mid: dleton’s seat. Meantime the President (Hon. A. Delmar), | who was seated approximately nar the ceni of Judge Cartter's ample chair, stroked his beard and waited patiently for an audience. Bebind him was a black-board, and on the desk before him was placed a large green bot- te. and by it two ginss tubes. connected by 2 | rubber pipe, the whole arrangement presenting | the appearance of some complicated chemical apparatus. It was surmised that this concern Was some inzenious machine for the propaga. tion of statisces, and that it would play a cor spicuous pert in the lecture, but the speaker made no allusion to it whatever during ihe evening. At 8 o'clock, sixteen persons, incInd- ing our reporter, a white boy and the colored doorkeeper, were present, and Prof. Delmar entered upou bis lecture. It was an exceed. ingly scattery affair, and the lecturer was con- Unually flying off at a tangent from his im- mediate subject in the oddest manner imaginabie. It may interest those inclined to hero-worship to know that the President of the Statisueal Society and Director of the Burean bearing that name is akout five feet four in- ebes in hei weighs about one hundred nds; is of dark complexion, fuil beard and vy eyebrows, which meet on the forehead. ‘Owing to the elevation of thejudge’s desc and the short range at which his audience of sixteen had clustered in the vicinity of the bench, it was not easy for the lecturer to make himself visible: but he got over the difficulty by rising on tip- toe at most emphatic passages, which oc- curred quite frequently. The subject of the lecture was announced to be “Taxation.” He commenced by saying that the confusion of tongues since the building of ihe tower of Babel was thought by many to be & punishment to the people, but he regarded it as a blessing. The identity of our language that of Great Britain had kept our noses to the grindstone; the knife with which we Were to cut loose from Great Britain had not yet been sharpened. Physiology taught per- Sons that the milk which a child consumed Wert to make up the physical and even the mental life. it was carefully enjoined upon all to let children nurse their own mothers; the System of wet nurses was to be deprecated. ‘e bad an internal revenue system which says to the distiller you have manufactured eleven gallons of whisky, now give me ten, and you an keep the other one for yonrself, but you must be honest: den’t pay me in goods, 1 prefer money, and if convenient don't mix any. One thing more, you must be watched. Your still must be guarded. You must be branded rot brandied. (Laughter by Prof. Wilcox.) You Must be sworn and re-sworn; this is what the | Jaw says, and it further says, “I will concoct some usw reguiations, and have -everal new Volumes written for your government: pay this tax now: ser bow I make you 8 good citizen.” Charies Dickens, it was well known, is d all m his power to have an Interuational C Fight law passed.

All this arises from mutual com- petition. The maxi of Adam Smith that taxation shonid fall equally upon all men Was good enough in England, but not good here. Adam Smith's four maxims were incomplete, and are unsuitable to this covutry. They did not provide against: 1. Abuse of tax power, 2. A distoried plan of taxation; 3. Sud- | jen or snap tax legislation: $. Indefinite or un- | certain taxes; 5. Over taxation: 6. Undue or partial taxauon: 7. Wneconomical taxes; %. So | called “moral” and “perceptive” taxation. In 1S¢4, when the tax on whisky was raised from 20 to 60 cents per gallon, there was enouch ‘Whisky which paid the’ lower tax to last the | country for eighteen months. Again. when the tx OB ten was raised from 15 to 25 cents per | pound, there Was none imported tor some time afterwards. We had tax laws framed to pre- ¥ent women from wearing silk dresses, or a bit ofribton. Adam Smith's maxims did not war- | rant that.

He announced that he would close his lecture by reading an article by the irrepressible Sydney Smith, which appeared in the Edinborough Review. ‘The Hon. A. D. read the familiar ar- ticle upon + Taxation,” and took his seat amid applause by Prof. Wilcox. The old gentleman in the priconer’s dock awoke much refreshed, and the audience dispersed. Altogether, the lecture struck our re an unique affair, and the Statistical S as another.

Sixth Ward Anti-Radical Clud. Last evening the second meeting of the Sixth Ward Auti-Radical Club was held at Odd Fel- lows’ Hall, corner of Sth and G streets, Navy Yard—Mr. Johan Little, President, in the chair, and James M. Dalton, Seoretary. Mr. Dalton, from the commitiee on the eon-' - re} — that the Western States’ ad nb were Ting @ general plan of organization for all auti-Radical clube, and the committee would prefer to wait nntil that constitution was prepared; he therefore moved that the commiltee be continued. Air. Hanna moved that a commitiee be ap- pointed to select officers for the permanent organization. ir. Dalton said that there was time enoagh to make the selections, and proceeded to ex- plain that the present organization wos only rter as temporary, and when the month was up for whieh the temporary ization was effecied permanent officers wi be elected. ‘Mr. Hanua thonght that the commitiee could be appointed to make the selections. Mr. Dalton.—If you want to get rid of the President, why don’t impeach him? bu: it yon do it, yon should do 1t better than Coa- 5 iter.)

At this point another motion was made to adjourn, but before it was put it was Buggested that some one make a and Mr. Dalton, to entertain the club, read extracts from the Anti-Radical Standard. While so engaged, Gen. Hrgh Cameron, of the Western States Club, entered the hall, and, being introduced, addressed the club itical topics, im the course of which he To show what Re- publican rnle here would be, it was only ne- cessary to refer to the action of Senator Pome- roy and Representative Clark, who are en- deavoring to introduce new degradation for our people; for they were not satisfied with imposing negro men's votes on us, but wanted negro women to vote too. Notwithstanding they had spent forty-five days in stumping the State, they had been repudiated in Kansas. At the conciusion of General C.’s remarks, & ‘Vote of thanks was tendered him. Mr. Dalton moved that the board of officers be constituted an executive committee to invite persons toattend the meeting and become mem- bers of the club. Mr. Dalton said that there could be no doubt of the necessity for organizing. The rights of the people have been trampled upon, and our beautiful metropolis made a poor-house tor Virginia and Maryland negroes, who were get fing so particular and independent that th turn up their noses st that which poor whiie people are glad to accept, for he knew of a party of ‘kies who came from the lower counties of Maryland for alms, who, on visiting a soup- house, not finding the soup good enough for them, poured it out in the gutter, and held an indignation meeting on the curb-stone, threat. ening to tear the soup-house down. There were now but few of those elected on the Radical ticket to the Common Council whose position was known, and the principles of others seemed to be the whitewashing of Register Boswell. In regard to the consolidation question, they were divided, and the anti-Radicals, if they worked, mm bis opinion, could easily carry the election. Adjourn —_e——_. Fovrta Warp Democratic Cire.—The regular meeting of the Fourth Ward Democra- tic and Conservative Club was held last even- ings the President, Owen Thorn, Esq.,in the chair. Mr. Dennis McNamara asked what had be- come of the Vice-President, Mr. Geo. G. Wil- son. The special commitice of nine to canvess the ward had not been able to meet becanse they had no presiding officer. Several members of the committee were at the hail last week, but could hold no meeting on account of the Absence of the Vice-President, If he could not attend the meetings another should be elected. Mr. A. Gleason moved to discharge that special committee, and appoint a new commit- tee who would attend to the business. He made a motion to that effect; which was adop- Mr. McNamara said tour members of that committee had taken some interest in their business, and had a list of 175 names who did not register last year, but the other members took no interest, amd would not work, so the work of canvassing was stopped. The Chair suggested that the club name the members of the new committee. Mr. John Houlahan did not see the use in ap- pointing another committee. A majority would be the same old members, and no work would be done. Mr. A. Gleason said the Chair would bave more sense than to reappoint the old committee. Mr. John Houlahan thought those members of the committee who did notaitend the meet- ings were the greatest ones tor complaining. Mr. John Hogan moved that a commie of nine, to canvass the ward, be appointed; which Was adopted. Mr. Gleason moved that the appointment of the commitiee be postponed until the next mect- ing; adopted, . John Hogan moved that the executive commutes be instructed to appeal to the other wards, and get them to organize. Mr. J. Darby theught it very much out ot lace for the executive committee of the Fourth Yard to appeal to the other wards, when they Were doing 0 little in the Fourth Ward. The example should be shown in this ward, and then ask other wards to organize. ‘The Chair thought this club was doing soi good, Anappeal could be made to the other wards, and, if they would organige. 9 central association could be formed. Mr. Michael Connel! s&{2 the ward had been canvassed, and it was known how many voters there were in the ward. He thought that was working m the right direction, and now efforts should be made to get every ward in the city organized. r. A. Gleason inquired what bad beconw of the public speakers who were to be invited Mr. Connell said there were gentlemen out- side of the club who were doing more fer the club than those in it. Mr. McNamara thought there was no neves- sity for speakers; the club could speak for itself. ‘The motion of Mr. Hogan to request the wards to organiae was adopted. ‘The Chair suggested that the Execntiye Com- mittee meet and draw up a short circular to be transmitted to the other wards, requesting them to organize. Mr. McNamara thought Congress might grant a new charter before the next meeting, and he svggested that the club meet the nigh! after a ebarter should be granted, ue Chaur said the Executive Committee could call a meeting if necessary, Adjour ned —_e— & New Division Sons or Temreraxce.— On Tuesday evening the officers and some of of the members of the Grand Division of Sons ‘Temperance, 2s also several Indy sitions, Dep ceeded to Tennallytown, and the G.

Mr. Wroe stated that the committee to urge the passage of the eight-hour law by Congress i Pass the Senate. ‘On request, further time was granted the com- mittee to urge the passage of the bill. Mr. Flynn, from the Committee on Finance, submitted @ report, whic, on motion, was re- committed to the committer. Mr. J. J. Mitchell, from the Committee on Mass Meetings, reported that the committee had been diligent in holding mass meetings and organizing auxiliary labor associations They attempted to start a workingmen’s association on the Island, but failed. There was a vacancy on the committee, and, on motion of Mr. Mitch- Teas, An association known as the “Master Builders Union” has recently been or- ganized in this city, avowing hostility to all “Trade organizations,” and declaring amoaz other things, the determination of resisting the establishment of the eight hour system in the District of Columbin: be it therefore Rescived, That we, the delegates of 13 trade ol here assem do declare that we will never relax our efforts until eight hours is established in the District of Coli and that we will use every exertion in our Power to counteract the inflaence of the “Mas- ter Builder's Union” when directed against the establishment of the same: and further, that we pledge our undivided support to any organiza. tions who are driven to resist the unjust exac- uuons of the above named organization. Resolved, That the thanks of thisassembly are hereby tendered to Mr. John F. Collins for his able and ¢loquent speech in defence ot our Trade organizations and their objects, as deliy— ered oy him at a mevting of the + ter Build- ers Umon.” The Secretary, by request of Mr. Mitchell, read from the STan’s report of the meeting of the “Master Builders’ Union” Mr. Collins’ remarks, Mr. Mitchell said the thanks of the laboring men were due to Mr. Collins for the remark ics would approach there would ‘oF conflict. Journeymen ve rights as well as their employers.” Mr. Beron said these men set themselves up as “masters.” He would like to know over ‘whom they were masters; sarely not over white men. He could not acknowledge that they were masters over the journeymen. Mr. J. J. Mitchell said that the fact was now before them that an organization had been formed in this city, the ult ite object of whic ‘was to crush the workingmen of the city. He characterized the action of those men in form- ing the society at this time as a cowardly ac- tion. Poverty and want were now king through the city, and they had taken the oppor- tunity to form such an’ organization because work was scarce and spring ahont opening. ‘Mr. McCathran said that the disease had been, brought from over et The moneyed men would find it a difficult job to fight the workingmen of this country. If it was any satisfaction for such men to get up a mutual admiration pean (1 and meet once a week to tickle each other by calling themselves “mas- ters.” let them do it, but let them also keep clear of the workingmen. That term master, he said, bad been stricken from the American vocabulary. ‘The preamble and resolutions were unani- monsly adopted. The Committee on Finance submitted a report, and urged the appointment of a Finan- cial Secretary. The report was adopted. Mr. Mainy moved the appointment of a com- mittee to draw up an address to the working men of the cizy, urging them to sustain the trade unions. Mr. Beron stated that next summer there would be an abundance of work: more than the journeymen would be able to do. He spoke of the course of the newspapers in showing to the people the worse side of picture:saying they would note every case of suffering. and attempt to show that the distress in the country was greater than it really was. Mr. McLean claimed that Mr. Beron was out of order in repeatedly assailing the newspa- «. They had not met for that purpose; but fo promote the interests of the workingmen. The gentleman seemed to have a particalar animosity agains: newspapers, but he was out of order in displaying it at the meetings of the Assembly. hoped he would refrain from venting his spleen on newspapers. The busi- nes of this assembly was to make friends and not enemies. Mitchell was not in favor of making war upon newspapers. But he thought it his privilege and duty to correct erroneous state- ments concerning the workingmen which might be published in the newspapers. Mr. Flynn said it was necessary that the journeymen should not make war upon the press, If they attempted that they should ex- pect to meet War in return, Ifthey could not treat the newspapers fairly they would not have fair dealing in return. They depended upon the newspapers to publish their proceed- ings and movements throughout the land. Mr. Rothwell was wholly opposed to the coarse pursued by Mr. Beron. The Assembly had successfully transacted its business hereto- fore without making war on any class. We can retain the goodwill of our employers and others, and at the same time make a firm but respectful demand for what the necessities of the times requires, as also the adoption of the eight-hour system. ‘The motion of Mr. Mainy on the matter was laid over for one week. Mr. Flynn moved that the proposed amend- ment to the constitution providing for the elec- ton of a Financial on and defining bis duties. beadopted. Carried. Mr. D. McCatbran moved that the amend. ment to the Constitution striking out the E: utive Committee be laid over; carried. Mr. Flynn moved that the Assembly proceed toelect a Financial Secretary; which motion was carried, and Mr. Geo. Cook, of the Brick- layer’s Union, was elected. rr. Beron arose and moved that the reporters of the press be requested to exclude from their reports all remarks relating to newspapers, Not seconded. The Financial Secretary was then conducted to bis seat by Messrs. Canfield and McLean. Mr. McLean spoke of a bill offered in the Board of Aldermen onthe ih of February, and offered the following resolution : Resolved, That the thanks of this assembly be, aud are hereby tendered to Mr. Donald Me- Catbran, of the Board of Aldermen, tor his zeal in behalf of the eight hour movement, as evi- denced by the introduction in that Board of a bill requiring all Corporstion work, &c., to be done by the day. and right hours to constitute a legal day’s work.

He adverted to the enormous burden now imposed upon our people by taxa- tion, the manifest extravagance in the places of tashion and folly, the disturbed condition of our finances, a fearfully manifest degeneracy in the public morals of the nation: and the great aim of the people now should be to defeat Radi- calism throughout the length and breadth of the land, and correct the evils which they had foreed upon the country. On taking his seat, Mr. Phelps was honored with enthusiastic applause, and a vote of thanky was unanimously passed. A resolution was adopted, requesting Presi- dent Johnson to declare the 22d of February as & public holiday. he meeting then adjourned. pentane vdens2se A New anp Compete Drve Store.—The new drug store of Mr. S. Calvert Ford, in Shi!- lington’s new building, No. 2-6 Pennsylvania Avenue, opposite the STAu office, is one of the most complete and well fitted establishments in the city. Mr. Ford has had a long exper'~ ence inthe business, his former well known stand having been at the corner of Pennsylya- Bia avenue and 1ith sireet. His new store is 70 feet deep and 15 feet front, with handsome Stairease and walnut band-rail in the rear of the store, leading to the upper stories. The front window is of French plate glass, bearing a handsome sign in gold. On the leit of the en- trance is the soda counier, with marble top, which is now used as the prescription counter, and counters with marble tops extend down the left of the store, on which are several large and costly show cases. The perfumery case in the center of the stere on the left is heavily carved, and surmounted with a large clock.” The walls and ceiling are handsomely frescoed, and five of Tucker's patent chande- Hers are suspended from the ceiling. In the Tear of the store is the office, which will be used a8 a prescription room in the summer time. Mr. Ford has stocked his new establish- ment with a large assortment of drugs, chemi- cals, patent medicines, perfumery, toilette and fancy articles, which sre tastefully displayed. The frescoing was done by Mr. H. Schutter, inting by John W.

Resolutions were offered, discnssed at length, and adopted, favoring prohibitory legislation thronghout the entire jurisdiction of the Grand Division as essential to to the ultimate success of the temperance canse, and urging upon sub- ordinate divisions to take all legitimate means to bring about this most desirable result: pro- Viding for the appointment of a commitiee to represent the views of the Grand Division to the District Committees of Congress, and urge upon them to place in all bills affecting the neral interests of the District a prohibitory hquor clause; and inviting the co-operation of all temperance organizations. Messrs. Ross, Fish, (chairman) F. M. Brad- 'y, John S. Hollingshead, George F. MeClel lan, and W. H.

The fire was in the ceiling of this school sem, and Was communicated from the stove-pipe, Which runs through the second floor and into a chimney resting on the same floor supported by wooden braces, The chim- ney and stove-pipe were put up ina very sale manner. The Metropolitan Hook 1 Ladder Company were soon upon the spot: door was broken open. and the fire extinguishe before the arrival of the engines. The damage to the building was slight. Tne River.—Althongh as yet taken place in affairs along the yet there wre strong grounds to suppose that in few days, if the thaw continues, a different state of things will exist. Such weather as now prevails will soon soften the ice in the Po- tomac, and ere the close of the week, it is be- lieved, navigation will open. The Aquia creek mail sieamers, Vanderbilt and Keyport, have not yet made an attempt to torce their way down the river. To-morrow or next day, per- haps, a move in this direction will be inaugu- rated. Some fears are apprehended that, when the ice does part, the floating fragments may do some damage along the shores of the Potomac, in anticipation of which precautionary steps have already been taken to meet thé emer- gency by a number of the citizens sojourning thereabouts. —_—>— na CincLE oF THE henna pe rd se —On vening, a new circle o: the Brotherhood of the Union was instituted at spe mocting of Capitol Circe mere eo under Ps name of Jefferson alge dole ase Cc.
