Major Stitt wished to bear from the Execu- tive Committee. As for the Third Ward, they bad no sphit.and it was the banner ward in this respect. (Col. Cook—+:\ es, and the banner ward of the city, «f we carry it") Col. Cook reported that tbe committee had met And trarsacted business for the welfare of the club, which would be seen om the day of the ele ™ in. Connolly urged that they work ear- and wisely, acting for principle, and the city Wanted reforms in many par- ulars, it being now the best abused city in Uaion. The scdools are not good: neither the streets, which are wide, not by our own chorce, but yet the paving of them i at the e: pense of thé tax-payers. The permanent ro dents bere, too, are educating the children nou-residents. The name of the city was now uttered with reproach, and if the Kepublican party bere did its duty, ard the members used every effort to obtain votes by every honorabi- means, this state of things would not contiane. r. Chas. King offered a resolution that the ntral executive committee of the Republican Party of the city of Wasbington, be requested tw immediately prepare an address to all per- sons in Government employ resident in th city, Who possess the qualifications necessary in order to become voters, urging them te ter their names and vote at the approacti- ing municipal election, and take measures to place a copy of such address in the hands of every such person as bas not heretofore identi- fied himself with the political interests of this city. Mr. King said that there were a large number of persons in Government employ Who should vote here, and he offered this Tesolution so that the Republican majority might be increased. If government employees sent their children to our schools they should not be relieved of their responsibility as voters here. Major F. U. Stitt moved to lay the resolution the table. on b ‘Mr. John Freeman said that no one should be allowed to flicker on the party, and those who —_— Bot vote with the party should not hold offic Major Stitt asked if parties who voted here did mot lose their votes in the States, and if ‘votes were not more valuabie in the 5: 5 Mr Cook replied that decisions had been made both ways. There were two classes Rere—one who voted here or in the States, and another who refused to vote here and would not vote in their States, but dodged. It was not proposed to interfere with those who did Vote, Dut it was to get at the dodgers that this Tesolution was introduced. Mr. Wm. Brown urged that the resolution could do no harm, if it fatled to do . Mr. Connolly suggested that had those who Promised to vote last year done their duty, the ticket in the Third Ward would have been elected. Mr. Clark endorsed Mr. Vonnolly’s remarks Qs to dodgers having defeated the ticket. Major Frazer stated that he came from Ohio, but voted here, considering it Ris duty to vote where he lived. He did not consider it right to send his ebildren to school here and vote else- where. While last year many Kepublicaos Fr <—o here, because they were afraid of losing their votes at home, nearly every cop- Perhead voted bere and at home too. This ear, however, there would be fewer copper- in office to deal with. . S. K. Bond remarked that it was not more important to vote in the States than herr; that im such States as husetts the Re- Publican majority, being 5/,000, votes could be easily 5 Fe Major Stitt referred to the fact that one yore from Washington had elected & Kepublican Congressman in the Elmira (N. Y.) district. Mr. Bond said that while he did not believe dragooning men to vote, he thought it was jartant chose cares should vote bere. 1t the Republicans to carry the election in June, when Grant occupies the Presideatixl chsir, it would have its effect on the State elec- tion, to the effect of thousands of votes. It had beev beld that men who voted here did not lose their votes in the States any more than if they yoted st a bank election and Daniel Webster ‘was of this opinion. Dr. Deitrick remarked that in old times Dem- Ocrats voted here and at home too and he sug. gested that the Attorney General would so decide and that his —— might be procured. Major Frazer instanced cases where men Were challenged in the States for voting in Washington and prodaced a decision of Jerry Black deciding that they did not lose their vote by voting in Washington. ‘The resolution was adopted and the club adjourned. —_-—_—_ P Major Doughty, of the Soldiers’ and Union, delivered an address, for which he was complimented with a vote of thanks: a gentleman, who had hitherto been a Democrat, announced bis intention to be a Re- Publican hereafter, and joined the club. The chairman of the executive committee reported tbat be had ascertained that there were seven bundred and seventy Republicans inthe ward. Mr. J. H. Crane offered a series of resolu- tions requesting the Cer.tral Executive C. mittee of the Republican y of the city “to immediately prepare an adaress to all persons in Government employ resident in city who possess the qualifications necessary in or- der to become voters, urging them to register their names and vote at the approaching mu. Bicipal election, and to take such measures taey shall deem effectual to place a copy such address in the hands of every me person as has not heretofore identified bimself witE the political interests of this city; also, that the executive committee of the club be “requested to furnish the Superintenaent of the Government printing office with the names of any men employed there who may be known to said committer as opponents of the Republican party, and re. s ‘ally urge upon him the importance of their places with men who have stood by our Government im its hour of peril; all of which is asked im justice to the Republican party, as well as toward those who have mate Sacrifices in its behalf.” The preface to ¢ latter resolation alleges that during the past seven years most of theemployees at the Gov- ernment Printing Office have been taken from the ranks of the Democrati: party, and by fil!- ing their places with Republicans the city can hereafter be permanently secured for the party Mr. Martin Cronin moved that tue Execa- tive Committee of the clud go down and “clean out” the Government Printing Office; which Was objected to by Mr. Crane as disrespectful lapguage, and thereupon the motion was with- drawn, and Mr. Crane's resolutions were if adopted. Mr. J. B. Brown submitted a resolution, which was a “that the thanks ot Re- publicans and all loyal men are due to Presi- deut Grant for his successful efforts to make ability, honesty, fidelity, and loyalty passports to place and position, whether high or low; for slavery rule. Remarks were then made by Mr. George Hatton and others, after which the meeting ad- journed. —___ Avrains aT THE Navy YaRD—A Disap; int= ment.—The announcement that Pi it Grant would visit the Navy Yard yesterday, Equrry Court, Judge Ol:n.—To-day al. agt.

Communications were received from twe schools, one on Capitol Hill and ene in tbe northern part of the city, withdrawing from the Union. Objecuon was made to a pro- cession on the ground that the long parades Were too severe a tax upon the physical abili- ty of the pupils, and because the participation in the processions by the mixed school of the Cengregational church might occasien some disagreeable feeling. It was, however, finally decided to have the procession, with the under- standing that the line of march shonid be ma- terial byshorter than last year. Gen.
