A Sran reporter met Collector Brady, of Vir- ginta, atthe Arlington this morning end asked him about the reported conferéhce of prominent southern politicians at the Arlington yesterjay. “Oh! that was all a mistake about our having a meeting yesterday,” was the reply. “No such thing occurred. Last evening, however, a num- ber of us met in Gen. Mahono’s parior and had a Pleasant social talk, and as you can’t get gentle- laen together nowadays without the subject of Politics being introduced, our conversation took Gen, “Manone, Gon, ‘Langtree Gon, Chsisners, D. one, Gen. mn. Chalmers, Beach, of Missouri; Jeffords, of Mississippi, and myself. Tdon’t think GEN. MAMONE AND GEN. LONGSTREET had met since the war, and they were anxious to see each other. Nearly an-hourand a halt was occupied with relating personal remintecences of War times. Some of us fought on different sides, and our comparison ef recollections was very in- teresting.” ORGANIZATION AGAINST THE DEMOCRACY. “But you sali that the meoting took a political turn, colonel,” said the reporter; “how about that?” “Yes, and I have no objection to stating that the result was a general desire to organize and consolidate the independent and disaffected fac- tlons In the south, with u vlew of being able to do good work in ‘4 as against the bourbon demo- Crate, for the benefit of the republican party; at Jeast'that was my idea. We bave assurances that Jones, of Texas; Pitkin, of Louisiana; Cash, of South Carolina, and numbers of other such men are heartily In favor of such @ plan and will lend it their p2rsonal assistance.” “Was uny particular cours? decided upon, gr did you make arrangements fora future conference?” ‘asked the reporter. GEN. MAHONE THE ENGINEER OF THE NEW MOVE- MENT. ‘Neither,” was the reply, “our meeting was mainly accidental, and the conference, as I have sd, of a general nature. Of course we look upoa Gen. Mahone, who has been 80 successful in Vir- ginia, a8 thé best fitted to engineer any such Movement, and any steps that ie may see Nit to take will ‘undoubtedly be endorsed and the rest Will fall into line, But as yet the plan has taken no definite shape.” ——— Yellow Fever.

They had increased in helyht and were still exhibited yes- terday. Height of waves one foot, and time about forty minutes between crests.” ‘The remarkable disturbances noted above were probably caused by the same earthquake and tidal Wave that destroyed Anjer and other towns in Java on the 27th of August. ‘There was a similar Occurrence on the 23.1 of December, 1854, when the town of Simoda, in Japan, was destroyed and a Russian frigate th toe harbor overwhelm-d. The Waves were recorded on the three coust survey tide gauges then used on our Pacific coast. Dis- turbances of like character were also recorded on these gauges 1n August, 1868, when a succession of terrible eart!iquske Waves broke upon the coast of Peru, destroying towns and landing a U. 8. war vessel bigh and dry. ‘The rate at which such Waves [o0ve across the ocean and also the average depth of the ocean may be computed irom the tide Gauge records referred to.

THE MASS MEETING LAST NIGHT—THE RESOLUTION ADOPTED. ‘The meeting of coicred citizens at the Virzinia avenue Baptist churn last evening, calle’ by a committee to consider their interests as a people, was very slimly attended. John A. Moss presided, and Perry Carson acted as secretary. Remarks of a general character were made by Messra. John Freeman, D. W. Lewis ana Rev. Wm. H. Scott. THE RFSOLUTION. Mr. George Gilchrist offered the following reso- lution, whieh was adopted: | aa x people ‘ict of m— bis ate without Con decive Hranehincs sk acy patent Dower to secure their recognition under the sev- era! ta of t wovernment, or to sist upon, and exact justice from our courts; ‘therefore te Reso ved. That we, as a distinctive class, smarting ‘uuder pecaliar wrongs, do earnestly petition to the next Portion in'wnich we have besa placed Sader renabaees administration. sed Mr. Glichirst argued that as the republican party had deprived the District residents of their Fight to vote, 1t was but proper to appeal to the democratic Congress,as possibly some relief might ‘be optainet. THE WORD “DEMOCRATIC” OBJSCTED TO. ‘There was considerable objection made to the word “democratic” in the resolution, and a motion Was made to strike it out, but after discussion the motion was lost. A great deal of the opposition was removed by the argument that, as the next Congress was democratic anyway, there could be no harm incalling it by the proper nam-. Mr. Lowis rather bitterly remarked that those who Were now shouting for the democratic Congress would probably ut the end of the two years be crying, “democratic devils.” THE POLICY OF GELF INTERTST. Rev. Mr. Scott advised that the colored people ought to b2 guldel in thelr political course by their interests, and ought to vote with the party and men that would do them the most ord. If the speaker was in Massachusetts he woull vote for Ben. Butler, because he was a good friend of their race. ‘This remark was received with great applause. He then went on to say that he would support Mahone for the 81me reason. “Mahone can help us and we ought to help him,” was his conclusion. A FRIEND OF MR. BOWEN. “Yes,” shouted Mr. Gilchrist, “the repubitean Party legislated that great man, Sayies J. Bowen, out of effice. ‘They are always for reform, but it ts to reform the negro out an1 thoms7iv2s in.” 4 MESSENGER FROM THE SOUTH. Just as the meeting was about to adjourn Mr. ‘Moss called attention to the presence of Mr. Niles, of Arkansas, who wished to adilress them on the con- ition of the colored people in the south. There Was opposition to he.ring Mr. Niles, but finally 1t was agreed to allow him five minutes. Mr. Niles then proceeded to say that the colored people in the south were deprived of their rights and privi- leges, and that they were getting tired of it, and they ‘wanted ald to buy land where they could get ray from the white people and manage their own Mr. Niles’ subsequent remarks were of a rather disjointed character, owing to the frequent inter- Tuptions from the audience, that di1 not seem to take very Kindly to his scheme for the ameliora- Lion of his race, . After a somewhat rambitnz dis- cussion, Mr. Niles concluded to Minish bis remarks on gome future occasion, and the meeting ad- journed.
