Several Tequisitions for contingent expenses have been drawn by me since that time and approved by the Mayor, and the Register has in every ine stance declined to draw the checks.

It baving been determined, in order to accom- modate a large number of voters of the First and Second Wards, who, it is alleged, had not the opportunity of registering at the first open- ing of the books, to give to each ward one day more, the judges and clerks met yesterday afternoon at three o'clock, in the colored charch at the corner of 19th and I streets, First Ward. In the place of Mr. Sayles J. Bowen, resigned because of his nomination tor the mayoralty, Jol. Wm. A. Cook appeared as one of the judges, in conjunction with Messrs. Clepbane, Bacon, Planty anu Robbing, who ‘were a present. Messrs. Noyes and’ Barton were at their posts as clerks. At the closing of th. books. (seven o'clock p.m.) G0 persons had been registered, of whom 30 were whites and 230 colored; majority for whites, 150. Total number registered in this ward, so far this yeer, 3.130—whites, 1,465; colore:!, 1,665; ma- jority for colored, 200. At the opening of the books, there were but few present about the precinct: but, as the af- ternoon passed off, the crowd imerrased, and by 7 o'clock embraced several hundred. The ad- vocates of both parties worked earnestly in bringing up citizens for registration, and each side had wagons and carriages employed to convey hither, from their residences, those who Were invalids or unable, frova other causes, to walk to the church. No disturbance occurred and while discussions were general and ani- mated, yet good feeling prevailed. A few Minutes past 7 o'clock, after the doors had been closed, an ambulance, in which were @ dozen or more soldiers drove up to register, but some trine elapsed betore notice was res ceived from the Judges tnat the books conld not be opened for any more names, during which the “boys in blue” were apprised of the action of Congress. in ng the amendment to the District charter bill, depriving them of tes. This information excited theindigna- tion of many of them, who denounced the au- thors and supporters of the measure. ridiculed heir power to prevent the soldiers trom Voting, aud declared their intention of voting now any how. The only unpleasant episode of the afternoon occurred apout abont five o'clock. A colored man. who, it was alleged, was under age, made bis appearance at the table at ‘which Mr. Robins — sat, and during the progress of examination as to bis qualifications as « voter by that gentleman, Mr. Walter Drary, an anti-Radical challenger? interposed some questions. but they were not heeded by Mr, Robbins, and the applicant w passed. “Mr. Drury thereupon intimated that partiality Was shown 10 favor of the colored men, and said it was unfair; when Mr. Rob- bins ordered the police to take him out, Mr. Drury voluntarily left, and, while in the act of doing remarked to Mr. Robbins that his ‘condnet was very —ungentlemanly. Among those rejected ‘were James Al. len, colored, les Jackson, colored, non-residents; John Butler and Jerry Sulli- yan, not naturalized; and John W. Harri-on, insufficient time in the city. Henry Stewart, colored, employee at Presidential Mansion, was asked if be intended to change his quarters on ‘Tuesday, (consequent upon the conyicticn of President Jobnsou,) and replied «No, sir; I 1 work for the new boss.” e books were reopened in the Second Ward at 3o'clock p.m. to-day, at the south- west corner of Lith and G streets, —\_r—_. Second Ward Anti-Radical Meeting. A meeting of@be Second Ward Anti- Radicals was held last night atGerman Hall, on 11th street, between F andG, for the purpose of taking into consideration what steps were necessary to secure & full-registration in that ward, and for other purposes. On motion, Mr. R. T. Morsell was elected chairman, and Mr. ©. K. Harris was chosen secretary. The Chair, after stating the object of the meeiing, exhorted the Conservatives of the ward to renewed 1c- tivity, and thought if ever there wasa time in the country’s history when the white man shail look well to his interests, that ume had now arrived. The Anti-Radicals should not be too much elated over the large majority of white registered yoters thus far in the city over the biscks: for all men weuring white skins had not the imterests of the white man’ party at heart. as would be shown on election da: Un motion, Messrs. Tucker, Canfield, Von- derlebr, Gowen, and the Chair were appointed & committee to devise measures for the benefit of tbe Second Ward club. After a short re- tirement the committee returned, and throuzh the Cheirman recommended, as the most im- portant business to be dispoxed of at this time, the appointment ofa committee of ten persons to superintend regisiration. The Chair wa authorized to appoint said committer, but te suggestion was made that the names should not be made public. The Chair suggested that as the time for hol i- ing the election was drawing near, somte action should be taken with regard nominating candidates for the City Connett and Board of Aldermen; when, ‘on motion, it the club meet on Thured: the purpose of electing delegates to the Anti. ‘al Couvention hr, Os Harrie aft ting at r.

Mr. Butler prefaced his motion with remarkethat he bad just learned that the Senate of the United States lacked a sufficient number of votes to convict the President, and had ngreed to postpone a vote till Saturday. It had also been stated that millions of money had been sent bere to buy up Republican Sen- ators, and nothing but the power of Almighty God could direct the party to sucess. “Our only hope is in the Saviour.” Let us devote one day on this important subject, and endeavor to bring about a yerdict which will carry peace and prosperity to all the land. Mr, Butler re- duced his resotutions to writing, as follows, and it then passed: ‘Whereas, we have learned with deep regret that the final vote on the impeachment of the President has been postponed until Satarday, May 1th; therefore, Resolved, That we set apart Friday, the 15th day of May, as a day of tasting and prayer to Almighty God to throw around the Senate of the United States the “Girdlings of the Holy Spirit,” that they may pass a verdict im the in- terest of suffering humanity, and thereby bring peace and prosperity to our country. Resolved, That a copyof the above resolution | be furnished tde Senate of the United States, Rey. Mr. Legan, ot Syracuse, N. ¥., stated that he had had a consuiation with the Bishop of the M. E. church General Conference, now in session in this city, and they had decided, as 4 means of furthering the move of conviction, to have a grand demonstration of the colored people some might this week. He therefore moved that Friday night be set apart for that purpose. Agreed to.
