Dr. Pinkney is the present esteemed rector of As cension parish, in this city, and is one of the oldest Presbyters in the Diocese of Maryland, standing fifth on the list of parochial clergy He is widely known througheut the diocese as an earnest and devoted pastor, of kind and ge- nial manners, and tine attainments as a scholar and theologian. Dr. Pinkney is ve of Maryland, and was born at Am is. Hie tather was Jonathan Pinkney, a brother of the celebrated Maryland lawyer and statesman. Hon. William Pinkney, whose name he bear: He was educated at St. John’s College, Annap olie, where he graduated in the same clas* with the late Dr. John Alexander, a distinguished layman of the Episcopal Church. Dr. Pinkney was originally a Methodist, and was at one tim? preparing for the ministry in that denomina. tion, for which purpose he entered the Theoloz- ical College at Princeton, New Jersey. Here, however, the course of his reading changed his theological views, and finally he was induced to enter the ministry of the *piscopal Church. Since his emtrance upom the ministry he has al- ways held a Cure in the Diocese ot aryland. For about twenty years he was in chargeof a congregation at Bladersburg, Prince George's county, his present residence, but for the last ten years he has been the rector of the Church of the Ascension, here. In the course of his min- istry he has found time to devote some attention to literary pursuits, and has been the author of several works, including oneon the life ot his uncle, Win. Pinkney. Dr. Pinkney is about sixty years of age, but exhibits considerabic vigor and activity. The testimonials of the Bishop elect, after having been signed, will be fowarded to the presiding Bishop of the Episeo- i Chureh in the United States, who will in time appoint a time for the consecration of Assistant Bishop Pinkney. Not less than three Bishops are required to be present and unite in the consecration of a Bishop. ——_o—__— A Goon Start i THe THIRD Warn.—Aat ‘the primary election in the Third Ward yester- day, Alex.

THE BIG SEVENTH FOR ENERY. Rousing Mass Meeting at Islund ifall Last Night. Collector Boswell Makes a Stiri He yuts the Lie on the Story 0 Out to the City Halt Ring” —The Meeting Votes for Ward Candidates. Last evening a mass meeting of the Republi- cansof the Seventh Ward was held at Island Hall for the purpose of nominating ward candi- dates, the eall being signed by Mr. P, A. Bos- well. President of the Seventh Ward Republi- can Club. The ball was crowded to overflowing, all classes of voters being present, inclading several citizens who for gene Past have kept aloot from municipal polities, and a very large proj ortion of colored men. ¢ meeting was called to order by Mr. Bos- well, who st that it was convened tn re- sponse to @ notice published in Tue Star and Republican, to nominate candidates on che ward ticket, the call being from the executive com- mittee of the regular ward clubs A. call hed been publisbed for a primary election, and it was for them to determine whether they would make nominations to-night or take part in the primary election. All he wanted was the nomi- nation of good men, such as they could support. He suggested that, as this was a mass meeting, a presiding officer should be elected. r. Boswell was then elected chairman, and Mr. KW. Thompeon secretary. Dr. Boyd asked if there were to be two Eme- TY tickets in the ward. SPEECH OF F. A. BOSWELL. Mr. Boswell said that the club had the right to make nominations or not, as they chose, and it was to determine whether or not to make nominations that this meeting was called. Be- fore deciding on these questions he had some- thing to say, which he presumed would be checring to Mr. Bowen's supporters.

U. -ds. [Ohoers. } That nemination was made from a conviction of duty, believing that if he was elected, men would receive in the Mayor's office the common courtesies citizens have aright to expect, and that in bis conduct of the corporation affairs the people would be entirely satistied.

[Cries of “ That's so."'} Fe'wes claimed that he (Bowen) loved the Re- publican party, and yet he would rather see the party shattered to atoms than yieid one iota. fc (Bowen) had felt strong enough to carry himself through by resolving that he was the Republican party, and that he alone was their exponent. But he has failed, thank God. [Voices — I thank God, too.”") He has not de- ‘sroy ed the party, nor can he be elected by the party. [Applause.} He (Bowen) would rather see the unity of the party destroyed than be deprived of @ nomination. Mr. Richards withdrew from the contest, tind- ing that if he remained the bolter’s nominee (Bowen) would be presented as the republican neminee and the convention was reconvened. Seventy-eight delegates voted for Matthew G. Emery (applause) and a committee waited u; him and received his aceeptance on the form. He (the speaker) had determined to ac- cept him ifhe placed himself on the platiorm adopted, and he had no hesitancy in saying that Matthew G. Emery having endorsed the plat- form was worthy of their ‘support, standing as he did to-day, the candidate of the republican party of the city of Washington. [fremendous applause.) MR EMERY WILL GIVE THE COLORED MEW THEIR FAIR SHARE OF PATRONAGE. They say that it ix impossible for Mr. Emery to be elected and do full justice to all classes— to give the white and colored men a fair pro- pertion of the corporation patronage. He would say that he was fully convinced, on un- doubted authority, that both white and’ colored men would receive their full share of patron- age. [Great applause, and cries of “ Good!” Good!” *« That's the talk!”"] THE BOWEN-FLORFNCE DEMOCRATIC PAPER. It was = in some papers that there was no difference between Mr. Emery andastraighi- out democrat. In contradiction of this state- ment. he would read from a paper called the Democrat, edited by Tom Florence, what he says of Mr. Emery. That Paper had put forth the name of Mr. Jonah D. Hoover and placed a ent intended as his portrait at its head, which really looks more like Dan. Sickies. [Laughter and applause.) BOWEN A PAILURE. ‘The democrats, however, repudiate this movement, and have not made an issue this campaign. They do not endorse either Messrs. Bowen or Emery, but the question with them is that they have tried Bowen and he has proved a failure, and they are willing now to try a new man, and a large number will support Mr. Em- ery for this reason. This paper asks what dea. ccratic measure has Mr. E. ever voted for, (a voice—“What does Tom Florence live off of?””) and says Emery js the candidate of the reform ublicans, Gowen of the republicans, and ver of the denwerats; that both Emery ana Bowen are radicais of the Aeepest dye. The organ of jar. Bowen charges Mr. Emery with vesng a democrat. If he knew how to put things together both of these shécts were pub lished tm one interest.

A meeting of the Invincible Club was held last mght at the Stevens School-house, the pres- ident (Thomas Martin)in the chair, and John H. Brooks secretary pro tem. The hall as usual was crowded to its utmdst capacity with the friends of Mr. Emery, and great enthusiasm prevailed. ‘The executive committee rted that there were many names omitted from the printed list of voters, and they recommended that some measures be taken at once to rectify the list. ‘They also recommended that fifteen detectives be chosen to discover illegal voters, and two challengers, all to attend the election, and also that every man soe thas that his name is properly Spelled on the uy Edward ‘A.

He denied it, most emphatically. S. J. Bowen has surrounded himself with men who had brought him and the city to ruin by their dishovesty. The City Hall had assumed to be the true representatives of the republican party of this city, and in consequence of it the people bad become di with them, and are determined to shake them off. Mr. Emery is not a politician in the popular definition of the term. He has been sek 4 for his honesty and integrity of character, as well as his first- class business qualifications. [Applause.] It had been charged that he was a democrat, had been supported as such, and had worked and voted with them in the City Councils. These charges were utterly false. It is, however, a well-known fact that the rankest kind of demo- crats were going for Bowen. oped that Bowen had bought up the penny: line newspapers in his behalf, and the tax-pay- crsof this city had to settle the bills. It had been charged that Mr. Bowen was a great finan- cier, but & look at the figures would convince all of his wonderful financial ability. The colored schools had not been paid for months, while numerous bills had been paid to the contractors for pecuring Bowen’s election. Mr. Charles I. King, Trustee of the Colored Schools, here interrupted the speaker, saying that what had been said was a misstatement, that the colored schools had all been paid. Henry Johnson asked Mr. King if $3,000 had not been sacrificed at a discount to obtain £14,000 to pay the school teachers. Ar. King would not answer this, but took his seat, amid the laughter of the whole meeting. Dr. Fardon, resuming, said: We have hada bogus administration long enough, and now want a true republican administration. [Ap- plause.} We want a man who will ve Street contracts to a practical shoveler, and not a practical card shuftier. {Applause. The business men of our city who been old dem- gcrats would vote for Emery because they wished an honest administration, but this did not prove Mr. Emery to be a democrat, as had re : maliciously charged by Bowen's ring. Applause. Alfred Day was the nextspeaker. He said his preferences were for Matthew G. Emery because he was the best candidate nomirated. [Applause.) As things are mismanaged now, what is raised by taxes goes into the hands of the contractors. “There was $200,000 to come into the city treasury and $500,000 to pay. The National Bank must be paid befere the laborers, and what will then be left for them. [Voice.— “Echo answers, what.” Jdobn H. Brooks said that Congress had con- ferred the ballot upon colored men with the ex- Fectation that the privilege would be sacredly guarded and exercised for the benetit of all. There was much said by the Bowen:tes that y were doing all for the black man—the black man was the great object of commisseraiion with them. This was all idle talk and colored men kpow it. All were now Americans and it Was an insult to harp continually on this idea of charity to black men. He closed by urging u the club to go up as a man to the pollson elec- tion day and vote for Emery. [Applause.] ry should not practice the Vicious habit of talking politics on the corners of the streets as did the Bowenites. [Laughter.} It had been stated that Mr. Emery would not give the black men places on corporation work. He would say that @ letter had been received by a gentleman of the Seventh Ward from Mr. Emery in which he states that he knew no color now,—that col- ored rascals or white rascals need not expect any favors from bim, that honesty and capabil- ity would be his test for official place. [Ap- planse. Mr. Cornelius Clark stated that a report had gone forth that Andrew Freeman had gone back on the Invincible Club. This wasa false- hood, it was not Andrew Freeman, but one B. A. Freeman—some obseure person who had dis. graced himself at the Second Ward meeting— who was not an Invincible and never had been one. ‘The meeting then cheers for Matthew G. journed with vociferous mery. 5 WwW.
