Marcelius West inquired who the officers were, and who was entitled to act, and Sidney McF. land asked if the officers chosen at the pi meeting were to be cons‘dered permanent? Mr. ping suggested that criticism at that juncture was premature. Here it in to be developed that there ex- fisted a great deal of feeling as to the course which bad been pursued by the former meet- lly in the election of officers, and P. Sampeon, Mr. Holiand, and others. MR. DOWNING RISES TO EXPLAIN. Mr. Downing endeavored to explain, ina man- ner cbild-like and bland, how the thing was done. He said a motion had been adopted at the last meeting to print a number of invita- tions to send gentlemen, for the purpose of conferring with the original movers in the cause. Here several persons asked to know whether | or not they could «ct, not having been invited there, and some manifested considerable vitter- ness in these inquiries. ‘Mr. Downing further explained, and waxing warm deciared that it was evident that nothing could be effected at the rate they were now going on; and to prevent any further wrangling he uld decide that no one who had not been in- vited there would be recognized until they had accomplished the purpose for which they had which waste agree plans for a work- ani z . Sella Martin said that he supposed those who had not been invited could retire. Secretary Straker commenced to read the roceedings of the previous meetings, but Mr. artin continued to raise objections. Mr. Carter A. Stewart, Prof. Green and others is course, and the chair callea Martin to order, but he declared that he had re- ceived an invitation card aud therefore had a right to speak. n he had finished, the secretary concluded the reading of the proceedings of the first maet- ing at Wormley's apd the two s: ment meet- ings held at the house of J. C. Revel ANOTHER FIREBRAND. Dr. J. L. M. Bowen remarked that if the aaso- ciation is a permanent and private one thi who were not members bad better withdraw. Mr. Sampson and Mr. Thomas coincided in the views expressed by Dr. Bowen. ation meeting they would gladly welcome those who are actuated by honest motives. Mr. Hollend got the floor, and relieved him. selfof a flaming speech condemning close cur- porations. mprerene of some length hee followed as to the rights ot a few to hold a series of private meetingsand concoct @ scheme to present to the public as bad beem done. In this Mesers. Straker, Wilson, Thomas, Sampson, Matthews and others particpated, each expressing his views very plainly. Mr. Martin again got the floor, and continued to criticise and denounce the exclusive manner in which both the former meetings and the resent one bad been condueted, styling the eaders of this movement in this city a seli- constituted committee, calling itself rational, but which, they would see, would not be recog- nized abroad. New York, Philadelphia and other piaces would not send their money hore to any such irresponsible persons. Soon both Martin and Prof. Green were talk- ing at the top of their lungs, while the entire ouse seemed interjecting all sorts of propos: tions, the crowd being divided in sympathy tween the talking contestants. “Tue hubbud | C became so general that by common consent the Pye | was dissolved. lartin and his fullow- ere had nearly all left the room, when Mr. Downing asked the members of the association alone to remain, and directed the secretary to €all the rol! of members. ‘The secretary read THE CHARTER. It gives the association authority to receive all | funds, donations, lands and other effects, used | in promoting the objects for which it 1s created; contract for and erect such monument or mon- | nents in this District as may be determined | upen by the association to the memory of Chas. Sumner; the capital stock to be $150,000, which may be increased to $250,000 by @ vote of the Gireetors or consent of ‘the as-ociation; the whole to be managed by a board compos=d of twenty-five persons, a majority of whom suail reside in the District of Columbia. Prof. Green submitted an amendment, that auxiliary aeociations may be formed in the states and territories in conformity to the rules. | and regulations provided for under this act, &c. | A COLLOQTY now sprung up between the chair, Mr. Holland, Archie Lewis and others as to the condact of Mr. Martin, in which the chair stated that oo was drunk, and he was tae man to tay it. rehie Lewis said it was cowardly to say so bebind the man’s back, and no honorable man would do 80. Mr. Downing repeated the assertion. Prof. Green remarked that it was not just the Proper thing to say behind a man’s back, but e thought it more dishonorable for persons to remain chere and follow the example which Martin bad set them. Amendments to the charter were adopted that it shall be the duty of the managers to have pub'ished semi-annually in come news- paper in the District of Colambia the financial | condition of the assoc:stion, and that £100,000 be inserted Instead of $200,000 & the amount to be raised, and the charter as auisuded was a “pare ota 5 and 6, and wife to Geo.
