Abont 9 o’clock last night quite a scene took place at a house on Market Space, between sth ard 9th streets, in which the principal actor Was an enraged wife, who caught her husband, Mr.D. W. Smith, in the company of another ‘woman, with whom the wife alleges he has been living on terms of improper intimacy for some time past. The wife, who resides in Williams- t,Pa., arrived in this city last evening, and some means ascertained the whereabouts of ber husband, and proceeded to the house pre- viously indicated, and, finding him enjoying the society of another fair one, comme: de- molishing tLe furniture of the room, which she did pretty effectually. The offending Benedict subserjuently retired to the National hotel, Where he boards, while his wife went to the Metropolitan, where she had previously secured quarters. The cause of the row is a Mrs. Lip- pincott, @ Williamsport widow, who pleads that she is a convert to the Woodhull free-love doc- trine, and that the gentleman in question is the only man she ever loved. She says she came from omar two months ago, and has been living with him ever since, and that as s0on as he can secure a divorce, application for which bas sents been made, be will marry her. She says that her people in Williamsport are under the impression that she is emp! in the Treasury. The truant husband is well known in this city, and has been engaged in the business of — at to contractors here the blocks necessary to lay wooden pavements in the District. There are no new developments in the case to-day, other than that Mrs. Smith left the Metropolitan hotel this morning for Wil- lamsport, Pa., where the family are living in good style, being very wealthy, leaving the other dear charmer and her husband to them- selves. It 'ssaid by his friends to-day that he says he doa’t care a d—n about it, and only regrets not having put a head on “ that re- — last night. It is also rumored that he tends to apply for a divorce from his wife. —o Peupsyly Nortu Agtinctor Huicuts.—The most de+ lightful, healthful and desirable homes in the world are in the country, near a city, where the tage of both city and coun’ are com- Dined. The little “seven by nine” lots of the city will do for stores, hotels and places of buai- ness, but to render the home of a family in every way all that it should be, it requires a few acres of ground instead of a’ few feet, where there is room for a lawn, with shade trees, a flower garden, and where there is room for out-door exercise and amusement, breathing the pure priguating air of the country, incon- Sassknated aa in the crowded city; and where one an have their own orchards of the apple, pear, peach, quince and , borders of strawberries, rasberries, b' - A rare nity is by Mr. R.

The Twenty-first District Republicans Have a Lively Time. A meeting of the republican club of the 2ist district was held last night at the new market- house corner of 6th street and North Carolina avenue northeast. The market-house has re- cently been completed, with the exception of placing the stalls therein, and afforded ample space for rousing big meeting, such as the club managed to gather there last night. Inthe north end a large platform had been elevated some three feet above the level ot the floor, in front of which a large number of American flings were arranged in festoons, presenting alto- gether a pleasing appearance ‘when lighted up with gas. The National brass band, Choral glee club (consisting of six members), and vited speakers took seats on the platform, and the meeting was called to order by Mr. A. Campbell, president of the club, who briefly stated the objects to be to endeavor TO HARMONIZE THE CONFLICTING ELEMENTS in the district, complete the club organization, and hear the reports of committees. He Iuded to the rumor certain disaffected members of the party had withdrawn from the regular club, an were Dending together for the ma of Es e old part; He called upon them to return “to. the republ can fold before it was too late. The first busi- ness would be the election of secretary, and he called for nominations. At this point Gcorge H. McReynolds, colored, rose to make some remarks, and the chair called him to order, he being one of the disaf- fected ones, and not a member of the club. The chair said he must renounce his allegi- ance to rebel organizaiions and join the regular club, in order to receive recognition at their Sidney Herbert (mounted on a chair.)—Do 1 understand the chair to rule out any citizen of the 21st district who desires to speak his mind at ils mane meeting. The Chair.—*[t is not a mass meeting, but a regular meeting of the republican clab of the 2ist district.” ENTER, THE POLICE. Here a confusion of voices followed in the rear of the hall, where Herbert had his followers posted, and the sudden tumult became so loud that Lieutenant Austin and a posse of his —_— filed into the room, which so alarmed a dozen or two spinsters of both colors who had taken seats in front of the stand that they gathered up their skirts and fled. A number of motions followed. “I move the proceedings of the last meeting be adopted,” shonted one. Several voices in mse: ‘They are not the proceedings of the last meeting, at all, but roceedings."’ ‘Clarence Barton has them in a coat pocket.” “I move we adjourn, &c., The hubbub was kept up for sometime, the confosion gaining headway, and tne president Yigorously rapping with a hickory stick on the ie. MUSIC HATH CHARMS. McReynolds occupied a chair in the middle of the room, standing up,and gesticulating violent- ly, although nothing of what he wassaying could be distinguished for the general hub-bub; final- ly the chair winked to the brass band to strike up and in a few minutes Mclteynolds dried up, but kept his position to “renew his harangue” when the music Stopped. This was noticed and the band received instructions to prolong their strains, which they did, much to the disgust of McReynolds and his’sympathizers. At the conclusion of the music three cheers were given for “Sid.” Herbert, which were followed at once by three groans. This amusement alter- nated for some time, until the crowd BELLOWED THEMSELVES HOARSE. The chair called again for nominations for Sa and Jobn Thomas Johnson was nom- inated. W. H. Brown got the floor and stated that it was impossible fo have a fair vote by acclama- tion, as he saw men there from the steamboat wharf and all other parts of the city. Here cheer after cheer was given for “Sid.” W. Herbert in the rear of the hall. recovered from the le efforts to be heard mounted the chair and again commenced beat- ing the air, his arms turning around like spokes ina wagon wheel. Just then music by the band was called for and the lively McReynolds Was again compelled to subside. ‘A SECRETARY ELECTED. When the band stopped the vote was put on John Thomas Johnson’s nomination for secre- tary, and he was declared unanimously elected. ‘The uproar was renewed and the brass band was called in to restore quiet. The band was here complimented by three cheers, more were given for the new market-house. Mr. Pearson, secretary pro tem. to the club here read the constitution and by-laws prepared by the committee, and the report was adopted. 'W. H. Brown here made a motion that ail present be allowed to participate in the meet- ing, but the chair ruled it out of order, as this Was not @ mass meeting. Mr. E. T. Bowers submitted RESOLUTIONS, WHICH WERE ADOPTED: “That it is the duty of all republicans to the action of the central executive committee; and we hereby request our dele- gates thereto to support the plan of primary elections, to be held upon the same day in ail the districts, believing this to be the only prop- er and just’ method of deciding nominations, and that any man or faction refusing to acqui- rt the nomination of the party is a bolter, and not a republican. That we hear with regret of the formation and movements of the ‘Equal-rights of the District of Columbia, trust that it is nota correct statement, or, 4f founded upon fact, may be 1 loned, believing that it will mili- the best interests of our citizens; , that we frown down every attempt that is made to stir up discerd in our ranks by basely instilling into the minds of the colored voters of this city the idea That we tender esce in or sup} e city, ual share of im the 2ist distrie! that account, be speedily ope: That the republican club of the 2ist district hereby tender to the Hon. A. R.

Mr. Richard Goodhart then came forward by invitation, and made a very sensible speech, counseling harmony and denouncing divisions. At the conclusion the Chorai glee club sung a song called “The men who stat by us,” which was loudly applauded. At this point two tur- bulent men the crowd were led off to the stationbouse ao. Austin’s police. Speeches foilowed by Mr. E. T. Bowers, John Thomas Jol ir. Pearson, and Mike Shiner. Before the meeting closed the chair invited Mr. B. F.

When the crisis cute Tedement was taken inst me, nd Constable Kimmel sent two of his sattel- lites and carried away a sewing machine, which was not fully paid for. I was introduced to N. H. Miller by @ friend as an honest man, and paid him a fee of $10; also paid him a fee of $16 ‘to replevysaid machine, which was the sum it would take. Icould not replevy it in my own name, because my title to the machine was not good, as I owed Mr. Steer $25 on it. By great pressure and promising to pay ali expenses I ‘ot Mr. Steer to sign the replevy papers, -onstable Kimmel! had come v: near break- ing up this arrangement by offering to pay Steer the twenty-five dollars and keeping the machine to himself. Having finally procured the papers, Mr. Miller and my wife called on the marshal to get the machine, bat Kimmel! knew nothing about it, and refused all intorma- tion until Mr. Sharp threatened him. He had either sold it or loaned it out by the week. However, an officer accompanied my wife to some house on 2Ist or 22d street, and after adeal of trouble found the machine, and dis- covered it had been so roughly used that since then it has not been worth much, the material found upon it—pieces of thick rough cloth— being unsuited to such a machine, Miller rep- resented to me that he could recover the re- plevy money, which I find he will fot de, but pats me off with execuses every time I see him. le gave me so much information about con- stables and their doings that I thought it would be bad policy, to invest any more money. I Fu will have to remain a victim between Miller and Kimmell. When constables make presents to lawyers te cannot expect justice, and that is how it stands in this case; and why it was net prosecuted to a close I can only guess. ‘TO-DAY. This morning, H. M. 0. Danaher appeared, and testitied that Thornton Smith (whose testi- mony was Ff toomean sf yesterday) placed in his ha in December, “1871, an execution, on which there was $66 due, and offered him’half if he would collect it. _Deponent collected the money, and applied part of it on a judgment against Smith, and the balance to an account against the Abbott estate, but the amount was not sufficient by $15. Smith knew that he had made the proper application of the funds col- lected, but subsequently he called on several — to have him presented, but they re- Be T. J. Bicksler testified that in August, 1871, Smi Placed in his hands an execution against Chase for $60, saying that he had placed it in the hands of four different constables, but they all returned it nul/a bona, and agreed to give $25 if it was collected. Deponent succeeded in collecting the money, and the marshal attached 25 to satisfy @ balance of a judgment in the case of Holloway t. Smith, and deponent took the receipt of Kimmel! as agent for Hollo- way therefor. This, with his fee of $25 and the balance, $10, made up the total. Smith ap- peared satisfied when the receipt was shown him, with the exception that he professed to believe that he (deponent) put up the job—that is, had arranged for the Holloway attachment.

Apptetions were received as follows, and filed: For teacherships, from Misses Elion Watts, Annie R. Haly, Sarah E. Sims, Lony A. Clagett, Teresa S. Herbert, and Anna’ A.

The old crank boxes should also be abolished and automatic ones urchased instead. To show what other cities ave expended in building reliable fire-alarm telegraph lines, 1 will just mention that the city of New York paid $850,000 for refitting her old “worn-out lines” etl gd ago. ‘hey pat up 2,650 poles, 625 miles of wire, 2,500 feet sub- marine cable, and 549 additional automatic street boxes, the resalt was that her fire- alarm system is in this respect ahead of cn | other af present to be found in the Uni States. Thesum appropriated dy our Legisla~ ture (I think 20.000) will hardly be found ad- equate if the work is to be done well and every part of our rapidly-spreading city to be in- cluded in the network of wires.
