Going to Have a Market Heute—Sare. Well, the shaking up of the elements has ended at last in getting the project of a new market house in shape to promise results, The complications and entanglements of the old organization were such as to compel the forfeiture of their charter and the organization of a new company under the act of Congress. By that act a new compary conld be formed under certain contingencies, with all the privileges given by the franchise to the original company. In this new enterprise ali the active elements of the old organization are embraced, and also additional forces from other citizens of character and means. The subscriptions are all bona fide, fifty thousand dollars have been paid in, and the undertaking is now on a clean cash business basis. A meeting of the company will be held No- vember Sth to efeet an organization, and then the work of construction will, itis understood, be entered upon atonce. in the meantime the requisite notice to obtain possession of the premi- ses will be given. I is probable that Mr. Henry D. Cooke wilt be made the President of the new company—an + xvellent choice, as all will appreciate—and it is intended that the Directors and other officers sh«] be men of such character as to satisfy the community that the enterprise is to be carried Out in good faith to the end of making a great public improvement. ” The work on the 7th street wing will be com- menced first, and it is proposed to enter upon it within two weeks, and have it completed before the first of Jantary. The other portions of the building will then be taken in turn, and with a view to incommode the market people as little as possible. Mr. Cluss, the architect of the building, is already busily engaged preparing detailed plans aud drawings for the builders. RECENT NOMINATIONS FOR Conoress IN New YorK.—The republicans of the sixth New York district aplit into two parties, one of which nominated Horace Greeley, and the other Thos.

The “ Convention’ ear 2 Collapse tion to adjourn teChi- mearly Carried—Col. laid tl Special Dispatch to The Star. CINCINNATI, Uct, 26.—The convention for the removal of the national capital nerrowly es- caped adjourniog in disgust yesterday afver- noon. An Llipois delegate moved that the con- vention adjourn to meet in Chicago on the 224 of Februaty, and it was stated that the motion was made becavre this city did not appreciate the importance of the convention. The Presi- dent, by raising a technical point and delaying & vote, killed the motion. The letter of Horace Greeley, favoring New York as the best location for the national capital. was read; but a very lengthy letter from John W. Forney, urging the propriety of leaving it where it ie, was laid on the table without reading. ; Ou reassembling th's morning some time was const in deciding the mode of voting, and it was finally decided to allow all States repre- sented @ vote equal to its Congressional repre- sentation, and each terntory three votes. The committee on resolutions reported as fol- lows: Whereas, the members of this Conven- tion are rssembied for the purpose of consider- ing the subject of removing the national capita! to a place more central and convenient for the whole people, therefore Resolv-d, That the time has come when common justice and fair deal- ing to all parts, and interesis and rights of the States and people of the American U demand tion within the great valley of the Micaspy. tion within t valley 0 5 Resolved, That some eligib'e site should . selected as near as practicable to the center of territory, of population, production, and trans- portation, and with reference to the future a: well as the pop demands of the nation. Resolved, That we emphatically insist that no more 4] tions of public fends shall be made for the erection of new buildings, enlarge- ment of the Capitol grounds, or other perma- nent improvements in the District of Columbia. Resolved, That we reaffirm the resolutions Capital Conven- Louis in October, 1569. Resolved, That a committee of five be ap- pointed by the president of this convention, charged with the daty of memorializing the Congress ct the United States at its next session in favor of the passage of a joint resolation au- thorizing the President of the United States to appoint commirsioners to examine inte the question of the removal and relocation of the ational capita!, and to make report upon the same early day . W. W. Beach, of Ohio, offered the following as @ substitute for this report :—Resolved, That the further agitation of the subject of the re- moval of the National Capital from Washington ismischievous and ut for, ard detrimenta) That when this convertion adjours it adjourn That when convertion adjourns sine die. This, of cour e, created considerable excitement, and was veted down with scarcsly a dissenting voice. Mr. Beach thought fifty milliors dollars per annum would be saved by removing the capital west of the Alleghany mountains, but he op- — movi sts oocaune ft would indicate > stability on the part ment, an: would necessitate an immense outlay, for which the country is not at present. Some time was occupied by members advo- cating the claims of their respective States. each of which in turn was proved the best pos- sible location for the national capital. Mr. Cogswell, of Nebraska, said, if the capi tal was given to his State the removal shonld Not cost the governmenta cent. The buildings in Washi mm could be sold and the money placed in the national treasury, as Nebraska would erect all the buildings required. & 1 Forsbey, of Texas, said he would re- move all the government buildings from Wash- ingtowto the Mississippi Valley for $15,001,09. ‘he resolutions were still under discrssion when the convention took a recess for dinner; but they will doubtless be adopted without ma- terial change. ve ASSOCIATED PRESS REPORTS.
