The Dist mees Last Night. As the First and Second Ward delegations ot the Republican procession were proceeding along H street past the corner of 7th, last even- ing, about half past pine o'clock, a stone was thrown at the procession, and a rush was made for the drug store of Mr. Klockzewski at the corner, but Sergeant . with Officers Peaster, Lewis. and others, managed to keep the crowd back. and they were also aided by some of those in the procession, whe attempted to keep the men in line. Quite a numer ofshort muskets. clubs, and istols were shown and several shots fired, ut none with effect so far as known. A young man 19 years of age, named George Hendley, in the employ of Mr. George R. Hall, coach- maker, was quite badly injured in this affair. He wasstanding on the pavement, near the drug store, when seme one sung out “Hurrah for Given,” with some other remark, and a colored man ran up and struck at this man, but missed him, and Hendley received the blow on the cheek, and | being struck a second time he was knocked senseless mo the gutter, When he returned to consciousness seme man was standing over | bim cutting at bim with a razor, and his bat bears the marks of it, being cut into strips. When reached his home on H street, mear 6th, it was found that he had received two cuts, making (one | flesh wounds—one on each hip. Dr. er dressed these wounds, and he is also attended by Dr. P. Croghan. He is » also tm the breast,and so acute were bis pains until he | ‘was examined by the physicians that he was apprehensive that he Lad been shot. By seme means the name of Mr. Joseph F.

As the procession Was marching towards the | First Ward, last night, down F street, forty or fifty colored men stopped at the corner of Lith | street and running into Smith's restaurant one | of them knocked the proprietor down with a bottle, while others, it is alleged, robbed the | money drawer of $43 and carried off a number | of botties of liquor.

The rejection of the gomi- nation was made upon the gronnd that he has Tr fused to argue before the Supreme Ceurt in favor of the Constituuonality of the laws of Congress which the President holds to be un- ¢ wstitutmal. This course was purswed by Mr. Stanvery in the McArdle case, amd he has made it nosecret that the same rule would govern his action in any similar cases. ‘This assumption the majority of the Senate felt they could not endorse, as they hold, on the contrary, that it is as plainly the daty of the Attorney General to assume the constitu- tionality of regularly enacted laws and assist im Meir enforcement as it is the duty of the President to assume their validity and unhes- itatingly exeeute them.

The resolutions declare that, even assuming that the Senate is « court, in the exercise of judical power it cannot enjoy, an unamunity from popular judgment which had been denied to the Supreme Court with Taney as Chief Justice; but that itis not at any time a Court mvested with Judicial power, and therefore the vote of a Senator. though different in form, is not different in re- sponsibility trom his vote on any other politi- cal question. peschment Committee were Messrs.

They desired to show their appreciation of one whe by honest labor and —— had elevated himself to that po- sition. ‘The President. in reply. said it was a little dangerous for him to make a speech, especially at this time, when it was not long since he had been arraigned for making a speech and ex- pressing bis opinion in reterence to our public affairs asa citizen of the United Staves. Toe time had been when the right of tree speech was the great privilege of every citizen and every officer. He was free to say that the allu- sions made here to-day were peculiarly grat- ifying to him. When men succeed in their as- pirauons to reach high positions from low ones, it often happened that they too readily and too willingly forget the piace from which they sprung. It ciple with bim never to forget his former p sition or state in life. He sometimes receive communications with slurs and inuendoes iu reference to trades or ocenpations; but he desired to say to all, that the reason why more Were not mechanics was because they had not the ability. Many of the occurrences in the early period of his life caused him great happi- ness. It was not a person's calling which dis- graced him. If we never disgrace our protes- Sion, it will never disgrace us. Itis a principle of this Government that worth make the man, and the want of it the fellow. I have been called a Democrat; but my democracy consists im measuring every man by his merit and his worth. He remembered the day when he was & journeyman, ahd often looked back to those days with pride and pleasure. He had been a mechanic in the proper sense of the term, and Was & good one. [Applause.] He had al- ways tried to excel in his business, and thanks be fo God, so far he hoped he had been suce#ss- ful. He haa the reputation of doing his work and always complying with his promises. They had correctly said that in our Goyern- ment ail could aspire from the lowest to the bighest position in the Government: aud while that's the frame-work and genius of the Govern- ment it would be preserved, He would rather be a mechanic. and one in the proper sens« of the term with reputation that one deserves, than to be dubbed with all the honor that this or any other Government could confer upon him. These were insignias of peace. pros- perity, and good will of one man to- wards another. He was glad to meet such a large portion of intelligent mechanics. and considered it a bigh honor to have tisu call upon him. He desired to meet them in a friendly manner, and not with any set spec Since hie had been in public life every speec vote or message from him, where the questio had been involved, had been great mass of the working people, which had been the leading object of bis lite. He had been called a Democrat, and some might call him au aristocrat. He bad always, and did now ad- yoenxte the aristoeracy of labor. That was the kind cfaristocraey which shouid be cherished in this country. Aristocry of labor, of virtue, of intelligence and talent had always had ‘his highest admiration. He did not speak i party sense, but upon first principles, the basis upon which society and our Government Tested.

Money remains very abundant in New York, And there is no merease in the demand, The stock-brokers are accommodated at 4 to 5 per cent. and the Government bankers at 3 per cent.
