Late yesterday afternoon the District Com- missioners issued the following:— Ordered, That the Board of Fire Commissioners of the | District of Columbia is hereby reduced to three persons. 2. That the office of fire com- missioner ‘to be appointed by the Secretary of the Interior’ is hereby abolished. 3. That the present fire commissioners are hereby re- moved.” The Commissioners appointe following persons as the new Board of Fire Commissioners under said order, viz:—Peter F. Bacon. Wm. R. Collins and Thomas L. Hume. The members of the late board have been notified of this action, and those of the new board notified of eee DeLienens The members of the new bo: are reappo ments, The members dropped are Mr. B. Reed (appointed by the Secretary of the In- terior, and who was secretary of the old board, now absent in Europe,) Col. James A. Tait, Mr. Carter A. Stewart and Mr. T. C. Quantrell. The members of the board receive only #200 per annum: the secretary $100 per antum. TELEGRAPHIC. Considerable difficulty has been experienced for sometime past by the Health Onicer and Coroner in communicating with the Alrms- house through the telegraph connection. Tiis recently been remdied by Superintendent Miles, of the fire alarm telegraph, who has made a thorough examination of the wire cir- cuit and repaired all defects, placing in new bells, a gong, &c., at the Almshouse. CONCRETE PAVEMENTS. Engineer Hoxie has completed his specifica- tions for an asphalt or concrete pavement on Lith street, between H and Boundary streets. The asphalt surface is to be two and a half inches thick when rolled, with a base of hydraulic cement, concrete six inches deep. ‘This pavement is to be put on the east side of é street railroad, and will measure about 23,791 square yards. On East Capitol street both sides of the railroad, between Ist and 2 streets, ana on the south side of track, be- tween 2d and ‘th streets, 10,100 square yards of same kind of pavement will be laid. REVISION OF ASSESSMENTS. Yesterday was quite a lively day in the as- sessor’s office, the number of appeals being unusually large. Persons making appeals would benefit themselves and facilitate the assessors very much by not only giving their number of square and lot, but also the street, number of house, and between what streets their premises are located. The assessment just completed has probably been m: p with more care than any preceding it. The re- Guctions in the valuations from the last assess- ment have been from ten to fifteen per cent., and in but few cases bas there been an in- crease made. Tax-payers have now the only opportunity they can ha under the law of having a revision, or heai onappeal. The only corrections which ean. made after the board adjourns, is in clerical errors, or mis- calculations. There ean be no reductions in valuations no more than there can be in the Tate of taxation. THE SEVENTH STREET PAVING CONTRACT. The subject of awarding the contract for Paving 7th street, the bids for which wi re- cently opened, Was before the District Com- missioners yesterday and fully discussed, sulting in the work being awarded to Mr. mon mody, on condition that he furnish satisfactory bondsmen by 1 o'clock Paenh to perform his work according to specifications. Although Mr. Carmody is Known in the ree- ords of the District as a former failing con- tractor, this decision was made to carry out the principle of the law that contracts shall be awarded to the lowest responsible bidders,and it is held by the Commissioners that good and sufficient surety goes to make a contractor re- sponsible in the meaning of the law. This award, too, will shut the mouths of those who talk about “jobs” and “rings” in the letting of public contracts. Should Mr. Carmody fail to urnish satisfactory surety, the contract will be given tothe next lowest bidder with the same requirements. e Mr. Carmody appeared at the hour appoint- ed, and asked for further time, on the piea that his bondsman is temporarily out of town. The subject of postponement is under advise- ment by the Commissioners this afternoon. A NUISANCE. Health Officer Townshend, in a communica- tion to the District Commissioners, call: eager and immediate attention to the condi- tion of 9th street, between B street and Penn- sylvania avenue, on the line of the west end of the Center Market. Here the old wooden paye- ment has rotted to such an extent that large holes are worn, in which water remains and becomes stagnant. These holes also receive animal and vegetable deposits from the market wa pons, which, geconipist emit foul odors and offensives gases, injurious to health. He recommends the paving of this space with stone Belgium blocks or other solid material, closely jointed. A REJECTED APPLICATION FOR LIQUOR LI- CENSE. Patrick Quill, keeper of a bar-room, has a protest with the District Commissioners against the rejection of his application to sell liquor. He sets forth that he was fined for selling liquor pending a decision of his case by the late police commissioners ; that subse- quently the power to pass on liquor licenses has been taken from the police commissioners and vested with the District Commissioners, who haye also passed upon and refused his license; that this action was taken on the recommendation of Mr. Francis Miller, a member of the licensing board, and who’ is also the attorney for the District Commission- ers, who, in his double capacity, acts both as counsel and judge in this case. Quill protests against such action, and suggests that Mr. Miller should act less as counsel and more as judge in the matter of his application. He in- aa that he is entitled to have a license issued fo him. BUILDING PERMITS issued by Inspector Entwisle: E. E. White, repair a brick, 611 Louisiana avenue n.w.

Requisitions were also aeproyed for re. pairs upon several engines. e te committee reported, through Mr. Hume, that they had waited on the District Commissioners with the resolution of the board and the re- pers thereon of the committee. Commissioner heips stated to him that they would com- peanient) their answer in writing to the re ard. Mr. Bacon offered a resolution, whieh was adopted, that as Congress has authorized the purchase of one truck and two hose carriages for the use of this depart- ment, it is the unanimous opinion of this board that the artisans of Wash- ington should have the preference in the jurchase of the same. provided the work can 1 done as well and cheaply here as elsewhere.

As was announeed yesterday the | exercises were to be under the auspices of the | Maryland Temperance Alliance. The Rev. Peyton Brown presided. The meeting was opened by singing and prayer. ‘The presiding elder introduced Miss Mosher. of Baltimore, who recited in a fine manner “The Last Hymn,” being the story of a shipwreck on the coast of Wales. After the choir sang “ Jesus, Lover of my Soul,” Mr. Brown introduced the Hon. Wm. Daniels, president of the Maryland Temperance Alliance, who spoke for over an hour. His speech was well received and at- tentively listened to. The choir then sang “What Shall the Harvest Be;” after which Miss Mosher recited the ‘*Modern Cain,” in in aeeirabla manuer, winning applause on all sides. The Kev. B. Peyton Brown offered the fol- lowing resolution, which was adopted by a rising vote: Resolved, That we have listened with great leasure and profit to the address of the Hou. ym. Daniels, of Baltimore, on the subject of Temperance; that we feel afresh our obliga- tious as christians and as citizens to do all we can for the extirpation of the great evil; that we bid God speed to the Maryland State fem- perance Alliance, and will pray God to make it successful in redeeming this state from the curse of intemperance. The benediction was pronounced and all re- tired to their tents well pleased with this, the first semperasice meeting ever held on these grounds during a camp meeting. CHILDREN’S MEETING. At 2p. m. the usual children’s meeting was held by Rev. H.S. France. Addresses were made to the children by Rey. Dr. Pierce, of Alexandria, and the Key. Qiis Mariott, of Uniontown. LADIES’ MEETING. At the same hour a ladies’ meeting was held in the meeting tent on Fifth avenue, led by Mrs. Byp ‘is. This meeting is exclusively tor ladies, Several of whom gave in their experi- ence in trusting the promises of God and the blessed results therefrom. AFTERNOON SERVICES. At3 p.m. the Rey. Dr. David Wills, of the Presbyterian church, preached to a large con- gregation from the text found in John, iii., 15: “God so loved the world,” ce. He divided his sermon into four heads: 1. The plan of salva- tion is the pure product of Divine love. 2. ‘The gift of the Saviour through which it was wrought out in man. 3. The instrument by which we are brought into clear relations with God—faith. 4. The two results therefrom: First, it prevents us from perishin; nd, sec- ond, through faith we are not only prevented from perishing but are introduced into ever- lasting life. . The speaker presented these divisions, each in a clear, logical and forcible manner. After the sermon was over the Rey. Thos, Harrison took the meeting and ran it in a manner pecu- liaxly hisown. At this meeting five persons presented themselves for prayer, three of whom were happily converted. The service was ad- journed until 614 o'clock, or the YOUNG PEOPLE'S MEETING, which was led by Al. Holland. It was a song and praise meeting. THE BOY REVIVALIST. At7-45 the Rey. Thomas Harrison had com- plete charge of the meeting, and after an earnest and stirring appeal to the unconverted, | closed his exhortation with an invitation to all who desired to be converted and saved—seve- ral responded to the invitation—five of whom were converted. The Oe are growing in interest and power, and all through them may be heard the good old-fashioned “ Halie- lujah!” “Glory to God and such other ejaculations as are peculiar to the Methodists. A MARRIAGE AT CAMP. Shortly after the morning service a couple presented themselves at the tent of the Rev. ichard Norris, of Georgetown, and requested him to perform the marriage ceremony. The gentleman’s name was Richard Henry Oden and the lady’s name Susan Elizabeth Cooley, both of Montgomery county. She was dressed in a blue dress and wore lisle thread gloves. He, a few minutes before, had been in Grimes’ barber shop and had a “city cut,” his moustache dyed, and some other little fixing up. Immedi- ately after the ceremony they left the camp, Stating that they would be twenty miles away before night. DEATH. Henry Wilson and his brother Frank were called to the city last evening to attend the funeral of their brother, who lived in George- town. Their absence is sensibly felt in the choir, although Mr. J. S. Crawford, of MeKen- dree, has ably conducted the singing to-day, and will continue until their urn to-morrow evening. The Rev. Richard Norris leaves in the morning to conduct the funeral exercises. DEPARTURES. _Mr. S. E. Trundle and family and Miss Willie Nicois, of Tuscarora, Frederick county, who ‘have been tenting on the grounds, broke up and went home this morning. M. STOLEN Goops.—This morning about one o'clock Officer R. Burns found two men at the corner of Maryland avenue and llth street, near Walker's store, and as theiractions were suspicious, he tried to get near them without being seen. They, however, noticed him, and started to run,and he pursued them,when they dropped half a box of tobacco and 6 boxes of cigars, and made their escape. It was subse- quently ascertained that tae store had been entered iieoueh the cellar and the money drawer robbed of $6 in change. The goods re- covered are valued at #0. At 34 o'clock this morning Officer Westphal halted a man at the corner of 414 and F streets, and he dropped two large stable brooms and made his escape. MARRIAGE LIGENSES been have issued to Thos.

Turner and Mary L. Capt. Bogardus the Champion of the World. HIS CLOSE AND EXCITING CONTEST WITH THE BEST SHOT IN ENGLAND. A telegram from London, August 6th, gives the following interesting particulars of the victory of Captain Bogardus: The great in- ternat‘onal shooting-mateh between Capt. A. H. Bogardus, the American champion, and Mr. Aubrey Coventry, the best shot in Great Britain, took place to-day at the grounds of the International Gun and Polo Club, at Pres- ton, inthe presence of a great concourse of people, including many Americans, resident and traveling in Europe. The closeness of the match and the importance of the contest in the sporting and international senses, excited in- tense interest, and the result adds another to the many laurels already won abroad by Amer- icans in the field of manly sports. The match was for ish a side, each con- testant to shoot at 100 birds, with 30 yards rise, from 5 traps 5 yards apart, and it was stipu- lated that the result should decide the cham- Pionship of the world in bird shooting. The guns used were double-barreled, with charges of one and three-quarter ounces of shot, as fixed goes London Gun Club rules. The betting was very heavy and largely in favor of Mr. Coventry, the failure of Capt. Bo- ardus in the contest with Mr. Wallace hav- Dg oauord an unfavorable impression of his skill. The Americans, who knew thor- oughly what he could do, took all the bets of- fered, and judging from the large odds given on Mr. Coventry, must have netted a very respectable amount in the aggregate. Up to to- ays and even up to a short time before the opening of the contest, $500 to $375 and $10) was offered on Mr. Coventry, but the confi- dence of the nteane and other supporters of Capt. Bogardus, effected a change in the odds, and just before the shooting they were a little in favor of the American. , The weather was fine ard the wind very ight, but the shooting by both men at the first p>} is was unaccountably bad. Bogardus only succeeded in killing 17 of his 25, and Cov- entry fared even worse, getting only 16. From this point, however, the shooting began to im- prove, and at the end of the second 25 the score was 37 each. Bogardus had very bad luck, three of his birds falling dead just be- yond the line. -fifth shot Bogardus missed, and Coventry led. Bogardus missed his fifty-seventh bird, and Coventry his fifty- ninth. At the end of the third 25 birds Coven- try had killed 58, and Bogardus 57. missed his seventy-sixth bird, but Bi lost his eighty-second. Coventry then led until the eighty-ninth, when the scores were again even. Bogardus missed his ninety-first and Coventry once more led, but he missed his ninety-sixth and ninety-seventh birds, while Boearaus lost no more, ending the fourth 25 birds by a score of 22. to Coventry’s 20. The excitement was intense during the last 25 birds, for it was not until the very last shot, which was fired by us, that it was decided whether the latter had won or the match was a tie. Cog cpa) ‘dus was the winner of the contest by one bird, the seore standing: Bogardus, 79; Coventry, 78. Bogardus was heartily cheered by the great throng at the end. if ogardus eT STATES 4 PEN CENT. on bana, tur immediate o.‘livery.

INJUNCTION AGAINST THE AVENUE RaIL- ROAD Company.—In the ease of Adler against the Washington and Georgetown railroad company, mentioned in the court reports of THE STaR yesterday, Mr. Adler alleges that the property which the railroad company is now improving was sold to the Butchers’ mar- ket company by the corporation of Georg town in 1850, and that the railroad compan has purchased the same from the Butchers’ market company, and that they are about to tear down a fence, close up an alley, and ere: a wall on the plaintifi’s land, as well as est: lish a fertilizer pit close thereto.
