Charles MeLean, of Scot- Jand. Mr. H. Smith explained that Rev. | Mr. Clev ad, who had been so earnest at the commencement of these meetings, but Who had lately been absent from them, liad been prevented from attending by his in- ereased labors in consequence of his change from this city to New York. At the conclu- sion of the services the inquiry meeting was held, and the regular routine of the proceed- ings was varied by the holding of a special Meeting for young men in the upper rooms of the ecburch, which was atiendea by over | $wo hundred workers and inqulrers. | There are committees here from Baltimore @nd Rochester for the Messrs. Hammond and places. urpose of inducing miley to visit those THE MEETINGS TO-DAY. There was a very large attendance at the Calvary Baptist chureh this moruing.

Mr. Chapin, of Rochester, New York, spokeof the revivals in that city, referring to that of 1563, in which Mr. H as- sisted. Rev. Dr. Sunderland offered prayer; after which a number of requests were raad by Rey. Dr. Gray. The classes requesiing prayer were calied on, and 7i asked for iyers for children, for whom Kev.

Blu- cher sgainst G. F. Volz alias Geo. F. Biu- eber, for & divorce. The bill charges that she Was married the “ith of July, 1565, to de- fendant under the name of Bluchef; that in °6 or 68 she beard that bis real name was | Volz; that when he left Wurtemberg he left his fe there. In consequence of this in- formation she filed a bili for a divorce, but the witness could not be found, and defend- ant, having asserted his innocence, she with- drew the suit and continued to live with him until six or eight weeks ago. She further states thatshe bas evidence that the name is an assumed one, and that he took the | name to prevent bis discarded wife from as- certaining bis whereabouts, and that his Jawtal wife is now in thiscountry.

In the Police Court this morning Mr. C: Solomons, a cattie broker, doing busine Jackson Hall alley, was arraigned on the cherge of wilfully and knowingly offering for sale and selling for use as food two cows which were @t the time unsound, diseased and upfit for use as food, and the flesh there- of was unsound, diseased and unwholesome. This action was brought by Mr. Wm. Wolf, inspector of food under the Board of Heattn, uncer an ordinance of that board. Tuis | offense against the public has of late become quite frequent, and the health officers are determined to put a stop to it by briuging all | guilty parties to justice. Mr. H. D.

De- fendant then pleaded not guilty to ihe charge. Inspector Wolf testified that he was called upon by Mr. Widmyer,a butcher, to inspect twocows, which he had parchased of Mr. Solomons. He went to his slauguter- house, where he found the animals, both of which were very sick and unfit for beef. One of them wes killed by Mr. Widmyer, and found to be ina fearful conditioa from pleuro pneumonia, one side of the lungs | swollen from corruption, and the heart and vitals full of corrupt running matter. He informed Mr. Solomons who he saw soon afterwards, @nd told him that he had con- it. Solomons told witness that he asked Mr. Widmyer $44 for the cows, but that he afterwards sold them to him for $34. After condemanation, witness had the cow removed from the city by the remover of dead avimals. When examined the cow it had Ron | —_ of being sick, havin; a cough was misery.

Mr. Merrick said that some ten days since he bad asked a postpouement of the case on account of the condition of his bealth, and Ube court had acted on his suggestion and ask a repetition of this courtesy from the court, and still feeling that he was uot sulli Clently cestored to assume the burtnen of a likely to be, he had informed Mr. Carpenter, who was with him im the case, that he must take the labors of the caseon himself, in conjunction with his associates, Mo<srs. Elliot and Cook. Mr. Merrick would assist in the trial at the table and in consultation as far as he could. Under these eircum- stances, as Mr. Carpenter was before the Commiitee on Elections this morning, he tought it would be weil, unless there was somé reason for ® contrary course, to post- ne the trial until Monday morning, or at least until one or two o'clock to-day. Mr. Cook added that Mr. Merrick hal been jn iilheaith and Mr. Carpenter was iu the case in bis (M.’s) place, as it were, ay the leading counsel. Judge Olin suggested that it would take some Lime to empannel a jury, and that Mr. Cook was more experiencéd 45 to the juries than Mr. Carpenter. Mr. Cook replied that they deemed it im- portant that Mr. Carpenter be present. The Court DIKECTED THE TRIAL TO PROCEED. Mr. Cook calied attention to tue motion to quash, because on one and the same count of thé indictment prisoner 1s charge: With several and distinct offences, and pro- cecded to argue the same. After arguing on the motion for some time the music of a brass band playing an air from ‘Colleen Bawn” drowned his voice, and he remarked that he could not talk against St. Patrick's music. The court at 1 o'clock took a recess for one hour. On reassembiing the argument was re- pone nd was in progress when oar report closed. THE NiGur LopainGc House.—The man- agers of the nignt lodging house held a meeting last evening at the old central guard- house; ex-Mayor Emery in the chair, and Mr. Simpson secretary. Tne committee ieuae mauok haan aving purchased 50 tron bedsteads, 50 beds, 125 sheets, 90 blan- keta, 40 bair pillows and 75 pillow slips. Treasurer Mitchell reported that when these articles were all paid for there would still be jeft $350 in the treasury. Mr. Solomons re- [pa that the arrangements made with the olly Tree Inn for supplying meals gave satisfaction to all; that as most all appli- cants for lodgings came in hangry, it was deemed best to give each one hot coffee and bread before retiring to bed. This had all been donated by benevolent gentlemen. Mr. Mitchell moved that a committee be ap- pointed to wait on the District Commission- ers to ask them to furnish from the ‘market fund” @ smallsum for the support of this tay bows, adopted, and Messrs. Miteh- ell Solomons and Stickney were appointed. Mr. Solomons gave some interesting fact3 and incidents connected with the class of people who are inmates of the lodging- hous: apd the great good effected by the ente prise. Among the inmates aré many ve capital to obtain bounty or pensions due them, apd in many instatices they are with- out means to obtain a lodging or meal. Sub- fcription books will rovided for mem- to take the names of tt friends for contributions. An exam- ipation of the register shows that most of the lodgers are mechautes or professional men, in search of vecupation, and that after seeking here to obtain it withont success they push further on iu search of the same. it is believed that most of the applicants are Worthy men. —_-—_—__.

A MERTING OF “gest END COLORED MEN REQOE*.t THEIR REMOVAL. A meeting of eolored citizens of the west- ern part of the city was held at Jobn Wesley Chureb ast night to further consider the tary. ‘The cbairmao = fisting Ky Toy me ot sr] meeting expressed the that they wou! pot meee uncharitable as the colored senool trustees were & few evenings since; bat would allow the fullest discussion. Mr. Gurden Snowden ited the report of the committee appointed at the last meet- ing to waiton the District Commissioners @axi present the resolutions, stating that they performed their duty, and the Com: ers had stated a = be hear any suggestions respecting the govera- ment of the seboole; adopted. Mr. Chas. —— asked what report the commitiee had the school trustees. Mr. Snowden said they had received no answer, but had seen one in the papers. MR. JACKSON AND THE LADIES. Mr. Jackson addressed the meeting, stating that he signed the resolutions as president of the previous meeting, and referring to de- rogatory remarks made by Mr Biooks, said that it was true that he hed been a slave, that be bad not had the same advantages Mr. Brooks had. Mr. B. bad not met the question AL issve—the bill—but had switched off to at- tack him. Hedtd not go before the board to be examined. He nad not attacked the col- ored echool teachers—some of the ladies he kvew—[Mr. Robert Cook.—I want you to handle my sister's name gently, do you mi:d'] While heasasiave had been well Taised 10 respect white and coloret people, @' d while bis ancestors had paid trxes bere fifty years ago, that geutleman ( Brooks) was ma ission- jon for & boarding house in tue city of york, He would leave Brooks withhis associates. He would ask any oae to point out in the resolutions auything derogatory to the lady teachers of the sehools. Taey (the sub board) de net want them to diyeuss the star chamber bill, but vee the ladies (God bless their souls!) as bull whips oa tuem. They shoud pot shirk the question. This sub board isa self appointed committee, and instead of meeting the question sqvarely they get the ladies to pa..s certain revolutions while they (the sub-board) stand back. Mr. Gurden Snowden said the fable of THE CAT AND THE MONKEY Was & fit illustration of the action of the col- ored school board. He was oue of tho.2 who participated at the previous meeting, and would ters of Brooks and Johnson at any time. Tae object of these men was the money; they Wished the control of it, and he did not blame them. Brooks ts a cunning fellow; he fol- lowed Gray until be (B) gotin the legisia. ture; then worked himself in on tne school board, Gray's nomination is now before the Senafe, but Brooks cannot barm him there. Look at Brooks’ record on the Normal school bili in the legislature. One of these “poor, ignorant men” hae discernment enough to see that the bill made an invidious distine tion, and he offered an amendment, which was adopted, viz: “There shall be no dis- tinetion on account of color or previous con- Gition of servitude.” The bill then went to the council, where Brooks, @ colored man, | opposed it. It was not the sub-board doing bosses, and say to Ryder, Mitchell and Fer- guson, “stand back.” He had NEVER HEARD OF SO MUCH FIGHTING as there is in connection with these ecuools. Wien there were nine members they were | fiebtirg—also when there were but three; then the boards were consolidated, and yet theyare not satisfied. Nothing short of the control of the funds will satisfy them. Mr. Benjamin Freeman offered a resoln- | tion reciting that Brooks, Johnson and Fer- guson constitute the discordant element, and. in order that the schools may be a benefit, and that there be harmony among the cit!- zens, we respectfully request the Commis- siovers to remove them. Mr. Dovgias Sypbax offered A SUBSTITUTE. which was accepted y Mr. Freeman, pro- testing against any bill for the reo,ganiza- ton of the Board of Colored School Trustees, | whether it be prepared by the sub-board of trustees of color schools or any individual authorized by them, and “unless the sub. board of school trustees can show satisfac- tory reasons for their action we request the the colored citizens of the District of Columbia.” Mr. Syphax spoke in favor of the substi- tute, as did Daniel Wiliiams,Albert Hiiland Danie: Lewis. Robert Cook asked if Lewis had left the dastardly organization—-black democrats— gotten up a few nights since. {Commotion.] The chairman ruled that this was no po. Mtical meeting, and such a question should not be ask<d. The debate was continued to a late hour, and the resolutions were atop.ed. Messrs. G. Snowden, D. ‘phax and C.

He ures the repelling power so as Lo twist a cer- fain glass thread round and round. and the hum ber of turns required to untwist itagain is registered on a scale, and supplies & meas- ure ofthe twisting power exerted. A little iron weight of one hundredth of a grdin which is within the tube is lifted by a mag- net on to the little cross bar, and the torsion cunsed by its weight is observed in the man- | nerexplained. Then the light of the candle Was tried in the same way, and It was found that while the iron welght of a hundredth of agrain caused a torsion of only or & torsion between a sixth and a sev that due to the iron bar. Inother words, thi impulse due to the light of the candle was | weighed. Mr. Crookes calculates that the | force exerted by the sun’s light is equal to 32 | grains on the square foot, or 57 tons on the square mile, or three thousand millions of tous on the whole earth, a repellent force which. but for the far more powerful attrac- tive foree of gravitation, would drive the earth off into space. As not a littie of the in- Vigorating effect of flae weather is sali to be doe to the Increased pressure of the atmos- phere, so It is possible that the stimulus cer- tainly given by light to the nervous system may be partly due to this minute pressure.

His house | tn Union square during Mrs. Drew's life was always open to Methodist clergymen and laymen, who were wont to variake of its hospitalities, when any conference brought them to New York. A front room down stairs was his favorite abode; thecalls at his bell of an evening he was likely to auswer | himself, slippered and benign, referring all who came on chureh errands to his wife, ni- less some spe@ial message to himself was concerned; and he spent hours before the | grate in the same room of evenings, ocen- pied, not even with the Bibles and ‘hymn books that figure as personal assets on his schedule, but with only toasting his slipper: cozing and thinking. His habits were of ex- treme simplicity, a mighty seal-skin coat yeaching nearly to his feet being the only showy garment remembered of him.
