In the absence of the President. Mr. H. A. Mall, tit Vice President, took the chair, with A. Koss, Secretary. The mecting was with prayer by Kev. Mr. Wills. John Barker asked for the reading of the constitution and By-laws, stating that in his opinion this meeting Was irregular, no President being here to pre- sida. e The Chair stated that the Seeretary would Tead the constitution and by-law=,but the Seere- tary net having them present cowl! not accom- mosdate the iitlemen. irJohn er thought thers was some dodge about the matter.

K. G. Cunningham opposed the resolu- tions in tofeo—there were parts which he could mot endorse. They were empty bombast, and fulsome laudations ot the chief executive officer f the Corporation, who, in his opinion, did not need any such Legere up. He thought they Soc better eopty to Justice Cox, who, in an emergency. ha called upon to swear in ofthe sorporation when no other Justice beim iodo it. He was not a Craze man, a Crossman mah, of any other man’s tol. He believed that Crane was the embodiment of honor, and no man could successfully assail him. ‘Mr. Cunningham continued at length, condemning of the actions of Mayor Rowen and extolling Mr. Crane. Exception= were taken to his remarks, and quite a lively stene took piace; but Mr. Cun- ningham refused to “dry up.”” David Currie called the speaker to order, and moticns were made to adjourn, &e. ‘The Chair stated that Mr. Cunningham havi occupied five minutes, under the rules coul Lae . Finally Henry Piper obtained tloor and counseled peace and harmony. Mr. John Brooks said that, as chairman of the Executive mittee, he had offered these res- clutions in of good faith to the Republi- can party of this city, but rather than throw a fire-brand into the party he would withdraw Mr. Kelsey stated that it was his sincere opin- ion that it was injudicious to thrust upon them aset of resolutions objectionable to a majority. Do sou wish to read out of the party such men as Crane and Crossman ? They may have erred, but they acted honestly. (Voice —“Did you support the last year?) He did, and no ers to the contrary notwithstanding. A motion was again made to adjourn, which was lost. The resolutions were then adopted, and the meeting adjourned. = « A Fewace THIkY WITH MANY ALIASES—Faqny Frew he streets, and regarding suspicions character, he took her into custody and was soon satisfied that he had good grounds for suspicion as complaint was ‘made that she had taken a dozen lewons from a store. and on taking her to the station she was recognized ax the well known Fanny French, who was arrested a few months since for the larceny of nnmerons articles from the restaurant of Mr. Sanderson on Capitol Hill (shere she had been employed as a househeeper and for which offence she has been indicted) and who was a few a arrested on the ebarge of being the party who poisoned the child of Mrs. John P.
