A Large Party Defies the Weather and Captures Marshall Hall in Fine Style. The annual planked shad dinner of the Asseciation of Fire Underwriters of the District of Columbia is being enjoyed at Marshall Hall this evening. The steamer River Queen left her wharf at 1:80 o'clock this afterroon, having on board a large party of gertlemen, who were not to be dissuaded from participating In the pleas- ures of such an occasion by the threaten- ing weather. ‘These excursions and dinners of the underwriters have come to be re- garded as among the most delightful out- ings of the year, and there is always an attendance of well-known and prominent people. The speech making is invarlubly excellent, and every one looks forward with eagerness to the singing of the asso- elation cartatrice, Mr. Samuel Cross, and the jocose ideacgraphs of Dr. Wm. ‘Pope Young, the secretary of the organization. Before the boat left toauy It was anwounc- ed that Mr. Cross had sheathed the sword of Bunker Hill and was paying devoted tention to “Tenting Tonight on the Old Camp Grovrd,” while Dr. Young, it was declared, had caught some new stories on his last fishing trip.

He has never betrayed or ¢ the democratic party, and he has ways faithful to his pledg d to th ciples of democracy, when there were many faithless Administration Indorsed. We indorse the foreign poll ministration as one which has wa foreign encroachment upon American rights, maintained the dignity and pre of our country abroad, and kindled anew the pristine patriotism of our countrym! We trust the administration, which moves with proper conservatism in dealing with questions involving our ri European powers haying hemisphere, to recognize the of the Cuban patriots, and as soon as may be to give further countenance and ald to the Cuban republic, In acccrdance with the sentiment of our people, the ius of American Iberty, the dictates of common humanity and of Christian civilization. The Financial Question, On the finance question we recognize that this administration stands upon, and ha: consistently carried out, the platform of th national democratic convention of 1 wigch it was elected by the people, w declared that the parity of the metals in our currency should be maintained. The plat- form of the national convention on question which has carried the country overwhelmingly for our party should be the doctrine of democrats until a uew pl form is icrmed by another national con- vention. To thi vention to be held at Chicago on Ju we remit this subject with confideace in the wisdom and patriotism of that body.
