The question of appointing colored men as fire- men came up in the last meeting but one, Mr. Gorbutt contending that colored men would never make firemen, that they lacked courage, judgment, &c,, another Commissioner concur- ring in what Mr. Gorbutt said. The Mayor combatted this idea and stated that it was onl a repetition of what had been said of cok men in regard to making soldiers—that they were cowards, would never fight, would never learn to use a musket, had no patriotism, oF love of home or country, ‘e—but that facts had proved that they not oniy had courage, judgment, love of home and country, but that they had shown themsel yes as good soldiers as white men, and were just as reliable. The dis- cussion was quite warm and animated, but as no appointments were made at that meeting it ended withont any definite understanding as to what course the Board would pursue on that subject. On Tuesday last the Mayor sent word to Mr. Jobnson and Mr. Gooda!l that he would like to see them at his office at2 o'clock p.m. They came and had an understanding that they would appoint the men Mr. Elwood had employed, he (Mr. E.) having been requested by a resolution of the Board at the previous Meeting to furnish a list of the same. THey all agreed, however, that two ot these men (colored) who had been tried and convicted of crime should be dropped from the list and two other unexceptionable colored men should be substituted by Mr. E.in their places.

This was formerly the residence of President Monroe. — ieee HORRIBLE AFFAIR aT MANAS8A8.—The Alexandria Commercial Advertiser of this morning says: ‘The down train last night brings intelngence from Mamasens of the tration ef a horri- ble and disgusting crime, and of the proba- bility ofa speedy vengeance therefor. A man named John Keys. ax old resident of the county of Prince William, now doing busi- ness at Manassas, has had living in his family for some time his step-daughter, a young girl ofsome attractiveness. Itis charged that on ‘Wednesaay or Thursday night he attempted to commit a ee a her, and that he choked her so severely that her throat was livid with bruises. Keys, immediately upon the affair getting wind, sought safely in flight, nor has the young gitl since been heard from. Keys got'on the Orange down train yesterday at ‘arrenton Junction. considerably above Ma- Dassas, and when the train drew near Ma- massas station. concealed himself in the private apartment of one of the cars. A body of men boarded the train. but failed in their haste to discover him. Bat no sooner had the cars started than he was found hidded as above stated, by a brakemen. The conductor gave him up to the excited crowd, who carried him it was no disagreement between them, and the | OM With an intention it was supposed, to Mayor went to the Tmeeting with a most per.

A piercipg scream from her alarmed the res! of the tamily who, were at the tea-table. Hastening tothe spot, they found her lying on the ground insensible. She was carried into the house, and, sad to relate, ex- amination proved that she was dead. Her friends, on proceeding to prepare the body for interment, were borror-stricken to find an im- mense black snake coiled tightly around her person. underneath her clothing. There heing no evidince of the snake naving bitten her, the inference was that the young Iady died from right. appointed and confirmed by the Board. After they had resolved to go into the busi- ress of making appointments, the Mayor call- ed on Mr. Ellwood for bis liv. which he promptly handed to him. The mayor then stated tbat he would support the mea on that list. becaus he wished to hold Mr. Elwood re- sponsible for their good conduct, and as he was the responsible officer of the department, he (the Mayor) deemed it due to him that he should have the naming of the men. The Mayor then named the first on the list of en- gine No. 1, who was elected by three yotes to two. Hethen called the second name. when Mr. Jobnson produced another list, which he said Mr Elwood bad furnished him ‘and which was different from that furnished the Mayor, it having none but the names of white men on it. Mr. Johnson named the man on his list, and he was elected; and so the ballot went on, every man on his list being elected, the Mayer alone, excepting in a single instance, voting for the person on the list he had. The Mayor's hst had the names of those appointed and employed by Mr. Ellwood, white and col- ored. Mr. Johuson’s contamed, as we are in- formed, none but the whites. The presenting of the two hsts confounded the Mayor, but he did not know till the next morning that Mr. Johnson's bad no colored men on it.
