The executive committee of the Yorktown celebration association met last“ night at the office of City Postmaster Ainger to complete ar- rangements for the reception and entertainment of the French and German visitors on their way to the Yorktown centennial, the president, Mr. Dent, in the chair and Mr. Parker secretary. The chair stated prior to assembling that he, in company with Col. McKibben, had had a con- ference with Assistant Secretary of State Mr. Walker Blaine, and he had suggested that the civic portion of the program be dispensed with. The chair thought it a good suggestion, as its adoption would relieve the committee of much embarrassinent; the military would perform the necessary escort duty, and the illumination and fireworks part of the program could be carried out with less embarrassment. THE ORIOLE COMMITTEE. ‘The meeting having been called to order, the secretary read a letter from the mayor of Balti- more, accepting, as chairman of the Baltimore oriole committee. an invitation from the York- town celebration committee of this city to the oriole committee to be present to take part in the reception ceremonies in this cfty. Dr. Kimball, of the music committee, stated that he had engaged several bands, and asked an appropriation of 250 to pay for them; earried. Mr. Miller moved that $300 be appropriated to pay for the bands, which would be stationed on different parts of Pennsylyania avenue on the night of the fire works; carried. THE COLLECTIO Mr. F. K. Ward stated that he had a few more subscriptions. The proprietors of the Metro- litan hotel had subscribed and paid $50; the ational Fair Association $100; Mr. H. H. Dodge $50, and Mr. John Knox $20. Mr. Cross, treas- cash’ contributions actually received was only $3,250.75. He also reported that he had com- municated with the officers of the different rail- road companies reported by Mr. Ward as having made liberal subscriptions, but had not got a cent from them. A letter had been received from Dr. Duhamel in reply to.anotice sent him, in which he states that he has been making some cash collections to go towards entertaining the French and German guests at Yorktown, and that his accounts were found to be satisfactory. Mr. Cross stated that the banker, a grandson of a British soldier, mentioned by him at the last meeting, had since subscribed £50. Mr. Lut- trell, one of the collectors, reported _a subscrip- tion of €90, and cash collections of $60, which he handed ‘to the treasurer. Several contribu- tions were then made by the members of the as- sociation—Messrs. Ainger and M. M. Parker urer, stated that so far the whole amount of | Guitean’s Counsel. MR. MERRICK DECLINES TO DEFEND THE ASSAS- SIN—GEN. BUTLER APPLIED TO—MR. S8CO- VILLE THREATENED. * Mr. George Scoville, the brother-in-law and ‘counsel of Guiteau, the assassin, will remain In the city atleast until after the arraignment of his client. Yesterday he called on Mr. R. T. Merrick in reference to the latter taking part in the defence, stating that he (Scoville) hag had put little experience in criminal practice. Mr. Mer- rick declined, stating that hits other engage- ments would prevent it. He, however, inti- mated that if the question of jurisdiction was raised he might assist in the argument. Mr. Scoville has written to Gen. Butler, asking if he will take part in the defence. Yesterday Mr, Scoville received the following under postmark of “Boston, October 7,” directed to the care of Col. Corkhill, and written ina bold, but dis- guised hand: Srp: If you use any extra efforts to clear Gui- teau you will meet your death before you leave Washington, Mark this and be careful, A se- cret organization of great power and numbers stands ready to see that you shall be held ac- countable for any attempt to save the damnable wretch from the gallows. ONE OF MANY. P. S.—This is mailed from Boston, but our com- pany is not far from Washington. This, he states, is the first threatening letter he has received. ———— Amusements, &e. Tue Winow Bepotr at Forp’s.—Dr. Charles B. Bishop, generally and familiarly known to the Washington public as ‘Charley Bishop,” the jolly, robust, and unctious comedian, ap- peared at the Opera House last night in the “Widow Bedott,” the play evolved from the Bedott papers, andin which Mr. Bishop has starred for two seasons. The character -of the obtrusive and voluble widow as given by him is irresistibly fanny. His support is fair. NaTIONAL THEATER.—Michael Strogoff proved to be a card sufficient to fill the National last night, in spite of the Oriole and other attrac- tions. The scenery was something little short of marvellous, being executed by the best Eu- Topean artists. While each scene was a work of art in itself, the one after the bombardment by Krautizky, of Vienna, and the balloon as- cension, by Lutzkmeyer, of Darmstadt, in which the whole course of the ‘voyage is displayed, in- cluding the rise, the birds-eye view of the cities of Tomsk and Irkutsk, and the various rivers, villages, etc., a storm in the clouds, sunrise and the descent, deserve special mention, the latter being considered the finest pieceof scenic work ever executed. The dialogue was well rendered; the costumes were magnificent, and the ballet charming, several new features being intro- duced. Doubtless Michael Strogoff is the finest piece of spectacular work ever produced in Washington.

Colonel Webster stated that he would want three bands of music and the horses necessary for hauling the District light battery. All would cost $35 AGAINST A CHANGE OF PROGRAM. Dickson, from the committee on civic pro- ‘ion, entered his protest against the pro- posed change of program. This was a simple Tepublican government, he said, and why should they wish to receive foreign guests with bayo- nets. Colonel McKibben, from the National Fair Association, who was present, stated that this whole broject of apublic reception had been originated by the members of the Fair Associa- tion with the hope that it might be turned to some profit by their association. He saw but little hope of it, however; at the same time, if there was anything left after settling up their contracts he ho} it would be turned over to the Fair Association, as the latter had made considerable outlay for the pw of giving the visitors a good reception at the club rooms on the grounds and wining and dining them. THE PROGRAM NOT TO BE CHANGED. Col. Webster made a motion that the original plan of a military and civic procession be carried out. The chair stated that after what Mr. Dick- son had stated, he was in favor of the original plan. Col. Webster's motion was unanimously adopted. An appropriation was then made for the expenses of the civic procession.
