The peti- tioner sets forth that he has been for seven months a citizen of the District of Columbia; that on the 25th of July he visited police head- quaiters to see a prisoner : that while there he was arrested. and on the next day he was tried jn the Police Court for an affray, and sentenced to days in jail, and he claims that bis arrest, trial, conviction, and commitment were all illegal. and in violation of the consti- | tution of the United States, and he therefore | asks to be discharged.

TO THE BUSINESS MEN OF THS DIS- TRICT. The Workingmen’s Assembly held a meet- ing at Beck’s Hall last evening, Mr. W. H. Cran: in the chair, and E. L. Barker sec- elar ‘i <tr Robinson, from the committee appoint. ed to prepare ap address to the business meu of Washington, submitied the followiag, which was unanimously adopted, signed by the offi cers of the assembly, and 5,00) copies ordered to be printed: x To the Business Men of the District of Co lumbia:—We, the representatives of the work ingmen of the District of Columbia, in conve: tion assembied, feel it to be our duty to cal ‘our attention to the fact that its organization iB to proteet the various trades in their legiti- | a a | mate business, and secure for their service: remunerative reward for their labor, wh we know would prove beneficial to the busi ness interests of the Disiriet by giving activity to trade in putting into active circulation a larger amount of the circulating medium among our own citizens; and we sincerely be- lieve that those who are struggling to reduce labor below a living standard are enemies to the human race, as well as to the basiness sommnnity, and should not be patronized by those whose interests are so closely allied with the great industrial element of the country. It is a self-evident proposition in Hitieal economy that money is only a circulating me. dium created for the convenience of trade and as a representative of wealth; but, if itis con- fined to the hands of the few, it is evidenily detrimental to trade, because it takes from the workingman the means of supporting his family. No class of our fellow citizens are more interested | yp tegeer in the triumph of the principles of the workingmen than the [i eb as Whyso? Because they own Teal estate and require remunerative rents, and if the workingman is reduced by the capi. talist below a living standard how isit possib: for him to pay his rent? Now, every sensible man knows that the property-holder is not th tax-payer unless his property is idle. E tenement he rents he assesses the taxes i the tenant, and leaves himself a margin of «n per cent. upon his capital. Whenever the me- chanic ana aoe man is reduced to that degraded position by political mountebanks and charlatans, who Come among us with tuat avowed purpose, it will be of no use to build houses or for men of small capital to com- menee merchandising, because it will be impossible to find tenants and purchasers. We are determined not to purchase anything from those engaged in business who patronize any enterprise the object of which is to de- geade the workingman bya reduction of his wages below the legitimate standard of a fair and decent liying and the introduction of a body of men, known as “rats,” who have no interest in the welfare of this community. Such men have no claims upon you for sup- port, and should be made to understand that you Know your own interests too wel! to re- quise dictation from them. The majority of tue assembly consists of some of the oldest «f our citizens, and of those to the mauor b Whose feelings and interests are ident With every material interest which affects the Well-being of our beautiful eity.

Bryan and RK. D, Mussey, appeared before the District Commissioners to present their side of the case by argument. Messrs. Dent and Twining were present, Capt. Phelps bein; absent from the city. Judge Bryan proceeded to deliver an elaborate argument sustaining the action of both the old and new boards of Schocl trustees in adopting the Robinson text book for our schools, claiming that their ac: tion was entirely regular; that under tue old and new Jaw under which the two boards Semi-Centenaial Camp Meeting. ial Correspondence of The Star} N's Woops, A. A. Co., MD, August ‘Yesterday during the entire day the weather was jus’ as fine as it could be, ana the campers made the most of it. Atvovclock a children’s meeting was held at the stand, and was conducted ina vecy en pleas ee by Rey. Messrs. Trout and King. While the meeting was in procress quite a number of arrivals by ears and vehi cles. At 101, o'clock a large sy hang assem. bled to hear the sacramental sermon by the Rey, J. Thomas Murray, D.D.,of Georgetown, D.C. He took forhis text Ephesians, 3d chap- ter and verse, and spoke of the origin, character and destiny of the “O; * ‘Citisean Lymi- ly.” Indiscoursipg on the divine and heayen- ly origin of the famity, he disclatmed the right of Darwin, Tyan la tuxiey * to select bis relations.” “Tn the course of his remarks le said that the title saint was peemtneatly the appropriate and only designation of the Chris- Ulan on earth and in Heaven, stating that although the word Christians oceurs but thrice in the New Testament, the word ‘saint’ oc- y-one times.

Dur- ing the delivery of his argument he injected the history of the bili sean by the last Con gress, abolishing the board of police and the School trustees; stated the part taken by the District Commissioners, and claimed that the intention was to abolish the board of police and not the school board; that a clause been inserted into the original bil', abolishing the school board. He contended that the law creating the new board of school trustees con fers all the powers of tie old board upon the -| new board, one of which powers is the sele tian of textbooks, and that the District C missioners had no more right to interfere in tais matter of school books than they have tu interfere in any other of the minor action of taat body. The only powers heretofore exer- cised by the District Commissioners was in relation to appointments to the board itself. The ordinances of the District fully enumer- ates the powers and duties of the school board, all of which are coutinued by act of Congress in the new board; therefore the ac- tion of a change of school books was eniirely lee and reguiar. Such duties and powers | had always been exercised by school boards unquestioned until now. In Sammiug up he Said the Commissioners were bound by law, nd expressed the hope that they would refer | ~ | this whole matter to their attorney for a lezal opinion. Mr. ea ined what had beer said by Commissioner Phe! i tion to this matter, and th p) missioner Phelps entertained, that about one- hali of the pupils in the public schools were furnished text books at the pub! | indigent pupils; that the District Would baye to incur much expense in furni he ing new books to such pupils; that he (Mussy) had examined the reports of the school board and had ascertained that only about 63 in 1,000 of the puplis had received books in this man. ner. mnissioner Dent called his attention to the fact that the Davies’ Arithmetic is now in use in many of our best private and public schools throughout the county and had been retained for many years as the best system; the Commissioners had taken revisory action as soon asthe subject was brought to their official notice; that their action had been taken in the interest of the pupils and parents and not with reference to points of law. The wishes of the teachers, pupils and all con- cerned had guided the Commissioners in their acts. He made reference to the sudden ac- tion of the school board in making the changes, and said the Commissioners were not advise as to the motives which intluenced them, and they determined to wash their hands of it. Mr. Bryan reminded the Commissioners of the common law, that the principal is re- sponsible for the acts of his agent, and if the agents exceed their authority the principal is bound for such acts. In consequence of the acts of the school trustees the publishers have printed 20,C00 copies of the book, and it is the duty of the Commissioners to take cog- nizance of it and reetify the damage. Commissioner Dent denied that the District thereby intimating that he 1s an adept in the'r use. One would suppose that Stilson Hut- chins’ mind was entirely absorbed upon the subject of vermin. Kats are classed in that and it would be well for him to ap- ply “comb” to his own carcass, if ne ;_ like the old woman in the play,”’ thinks itch ing is too great a luxury for Workingmen to enjoy the felicity of scratching. This is the classic idea of Hutchins and Burritt, who will, “When they die, leave lofty names, As lights and landmarks, Upon the clifls of fame,” THE POST AND DAY HERALD DIScUSssD Mr. Robinson made a personal explanation regarding a statement in the Sunday Herald in whieh it was asked what he had done for the benefit of the workingman ? Mr. Robinson gave an account of an attempt made to reduce the wages of stone-cutters employed on public buildings in 1835. The workmen struck, and. headed by himself, marched to the White House, where an interview was granted them by President Jackson. After hearing their statement, he sent for Major Nolan, and told him when he wanted to economize to begin with himself. The speaker asked his hearers to point toa single act by Captain Burritt in which he had conferred benefits upon printers or any other mechanics. Mr. Armstrong also asked to reply to the Heraid, and read a statement to show that it was impossible for a printer to earn $5.83 for | ten hours’ work, claiming that after all allow- ances are made about $3.45 would be the proper figure. He said that “he could enume- rate every trade whereby an unscrupulous and | unmitigated liar, as the author of the articlein the Heraid is, could make a most outlandish — out of a just right :and I defy either the “malignant idiot” of the Herald, or Stilson ins, manager of J. Gould's libelous hington Post, to deny successfully the ents I have made.” Barker, referring to the editor of the ‘ost, said that as Hutchins had been educated in the slums of St. Louis it was impossible for him to use decent guage. The proprietor of the Post had said that the workingmen who passed certain resolutions should be locked up in jails and station houses, when it is a matter of history that if Hutchins had his deserts he would pow be languishing behind iron bars. Other remarks of the same tenor were mad Mr. Hamilton, from the committee on mass meetings, made a report, recommending that instead of holding out-door meetings the mass meetings be held in halls, and that the work of orgari/ing new unions i$ progressing; report adapted Thea sembly went into executive session. ———— Summer Entertainments. Commissioners were advised of the action of the school board, and he wishes all concerned to understand that they had no part nor lot in the transaction. | Let the school trustees and the publishers .ettle their own affairs, He {or one, washed his handy of allof i) Mr. Bryan asked if it was noi the duty of the Comn toners to have promptly annulied the con. tract of the trustees ;and he precceded to read a note which had been addressed to the Co: missioners by the schoo! board at the time of their action, informing them of the action taken. Mr. Dent stated that the Commission- ers had promptly declined to sanction the con- tract when presented to them for approval,and they disavowed all connection with the matter. Mr. Blakeman inquired if, by this, they pro- posed to ignore the responsibility of their agents. Mr. Dent said he had so stated, and he regarded it at as a matter between the schcol trustess and the publishers entirely. Mr. Blakeman, with his counsel, then retired. Aid for Yellow Fever Sufferers. PRACTICAL MEETING OF ISRAELITES. A published call fora mass meeting of the Israelites of the District to provide means for assisting the afilicted citizens of the city of New Orleans, where the scourge of yellow fever is now prevailing, was responded to lastevening by some forty or more persons, who assembled at Odd Fellows’ hall. The call was signed by Henry Adler, president of the Washington” Hebrew congregation; Jacob Rich, president of the Adas Israel ou tion; Henry Strauss, president of Mount Sinai congregation, of soe Raphael Saer- er, vice president of Elijah Lodge, I.

B. he meeting was called to order by Simon Wolf, who nominated Henry Adler for presi- dent, and he was elected. The chair stated the object, but thought a mistake had been made by Saline & Mass meeting of the Israel- ites. It should have been a call for the citi- zensto meet. I. L. Blout was appointed sec- retary and Henry Frank treasurer. No ‘chin music,” commonly called speech making, was indulged in, but almost eyery individual in the house walked up to the treasurer's desk and planked down his greenbacks in sileace, Keeping the treasurer busy picking up the money and the secretary busy noting the names and amount. Altogether it was the most practical meeting of the kind ever known hereabouts every one meaning business.

Going to an old gentleman, they made known the stafe of affairs and asked him to prepare the straws. The O.G. taking in the situation at a glance, prepared straws of equal length. Turning to them they both drew, and when it was found that both were equal one remarked, *‘It’s no use pardner, we ll have to go the photographer’s and settle it.” € A SCARE.

Careful inquiry developed the fact that three little waifs—bare-footed white boys of eight or ten years of age—iud visited the booth and purchiased a small quan- tity of cakes, and some one thought they were the boys who had been at a neighboring camp a few weeks before, when some smali things were stolen. TURNING DEFEAT INTO VICTORY. It has been stated that this is the first time that Methodist Protestants had a camp 1n th.s section. It turns out that about 40 years av when the Rey. Eli Henk e father of the Hon. E. J. Henkle, had charge of the circuit, a cau was held in these wocds or very near by. It is related that this was quite a large camp and that during the meeting everything was flat, hat not a single person had expressed a desire for his soul’s salvation, and the meeting closed and most of the tenters left. At thistime some of the sisters asked for another service, and Mr. Henkle consenting, ascended the stand and preached with such power that ina little time over a score of seekers were at the mourn- ers’ bench : numbers were converted, and those who had left the ground, hearing the singing, returned, and the meeting was continued one or two days longer, during whicl: time over 60 people professed religion. Those on the ground now are, therefore, not discouraged. Cc. PARDONED. -day the marshal received the President's pardon for Patrick McNulty, convicted in the Criminal Court, and sen: tenced October 13th, 1876, to ten years impris- onment in the Albany penitentiary*Tor havin; committed a rape on the person of Anna Wil- liams.
