Caucus Meeting OF tho Empire Club.


tions to be presented to them for their adoption
AT first there were not more than thirty or forty
present, as no public notice had been given of the
meeting-but towards its close it was greatly in
creased and was every moment increasing.
Mr.. Isaiah Rynders, President of the Club, stated
the objects Of their assembling, in a speech Of
nearly an hour. His remarks were principally in
reply to and confutation OF an article in the Morn
ing News, charging him with purposely molestine
and disturbing the great democratic assembly, lately
held in Tammany Hall. Mr.. Rynders took W
the points of the accusation in tie article of the
Ne,cs, as well as that in the Evening Post. anc
showed by argument, founded upon his past fideli
ty to the democratic party, and his continued adher
ence to II, that the last thing he should do would
be to disturb such meeting and also he showed
preparation, and the organization of the club FOL
that purpose, to whom he appealed, and who
warmly sustained him in all his assertions The
office seekers came in for due share too ; and
the assertion that the Empires hlssed the name OF
Sllas Wright at the Tammany Meeting was brand
ed as lie and fasehood beyond probability.
Capt. Rynders went on at great length in dissect
Ing the articles In the Necs and Post, but the for
mer came In tor double portion OF his stringent
critique, during which he very frequently elected
the warmest applause.
A committee was appointed, who prepared sci
Tot resolutions, IN relation TO the Tammany Hall
pre Club since that event. The substance Of these
resolutions, which too long to insert, was, that
the thanks of the Club was due to Capt ]. Rynd-
ers for the manly manner in which he successfully
opposed and amended the hole and corner resolu-
luti0ns submitted to the Tammany Hall meeting;
that the Empire Club was willing to support the
regular nominations of the party, but opposed to
any exclusive system and favorltism; that the
above meeting being called for the purpose Of hav.
ing an expression OF the public voice; 1t was wrong
to allow man who was an office-seeker-an aP-
pcant for the Office of Potashes lnspector-to draft
the resolutions and keep them IN his hat until the
very moment they were submitted to the meeting
that the Empire Club hOnored and revered the
name of Silas Wright, and would be the last in the
world to allow him to be aspersed-and that the
disapprobation shewn at the meeting was intended,
not for Silas Wright, but for those who wished to
make him stalking horse OF their unwonted de-
signs, and who wished to transfer the contempt
Wright-that the General Committe had attempted
to sell the character of the Empire Club, by assert
ing that said Club had hissed Silas Wright-and
that this assertion of the Mo'mimg Ne'cs was to be
regarded as unmitjgated lie--lhat the Empire
Club would continue 10 assert Its independence,
regardless of favor affection, and always use Its
inalienable right to act its part and express It's
views-that it would accord with the direction Of
the General Committee as long as that Committee
accorded with the voice OF the people, and thai
those members OF Congress from this State who
had voted tor the Texas bill were entitled to
thanks, but those who opposed it deserved re-
proach and censure.
All these resolutions were put and carried with
enthusiasm. After which it was passed and csr
rled with immense applause, that the thanks of The
Emnre Club were due to the Editor OF the Neic
York Herald tor the impartlallty and love of truth
he has always manifested in regard to the Empire
Club.
The meeting then adjourned, and were received
by powerful section of the Club, with band OF
music, at the door, when the combined forces took
a small promenade through some Of the adjacent
streets.
GREEN Room lNTRLLIGKNCR.-Madame Pico,
Sanquirico and Antognini, LETT town on Sunday
last for the purpose Of singing at concert of the
Philadelphia Philharmonic Society, tonight
They will return to this city tomorrow, and are
engaged to sing at concert to be given in Boston
in few days. Now that the opera has been bro
ken up in this city, by the disagreements and quar-
rels Of the artists themselves and various other
causes, we understand that Madame Pico, assisted
by Sdnquirico and probably other vocasts, ,intends
giving series Of concerts in the Atlantic Cities
and it is expected thar, from her position in the
musical world, she will make at least from 81 500
to So, 900 per week for short time. She is right
in making the most of her popularity as long as it
is fresh and beautiful.
Mad'lle Borghese, Madame Ricci, Perozzi and
Tomas, leave town to-day en- route for New Or
leans, and will probably give concerts at Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, Cincinnati, and other places
The musical circles here deplore very much the
loss of Borghese, who had made for herself hosts
of friends and admirers during her residence in
this city. For long time she was the main stay
Of the Italian Opera, till Pico came to her aid. II
the company had agreed and remained here they
would have another very splendid season, for the
musical taste of the city was just awaking when
they broke up
committee Of the recent subscribers to the
Italian Opera, are celebrating on the erection Of
a new Opera House, to be located up town, at the
corner Of Broadway and Houston street, and of
such dimensions and architectural beauty. as to
make it an ornament to that quarter of the metro
rois. This project would require subscription Of
100000 to start with; and we believe that many
wealthy individuals have already put their names
down for large sums. How this may succeed we
know not. In the meantime, it is supposed that
some effort will be made to get up anothee com.
pany out of the materials still amongst u.s. but this
is rather doubtful. For some time the city mus,
be satisfied with the shilling theatres, and the
negro minstrels, and all their demoralizing spec.
tacles and disgusting exhibitions. The Park
Theatre, indeed, will, in few days, present one
redeemlng point, asst is to be opened with WEIGH
and his splendid equestrian performers. No doubt,
this exhibition will be patronized by the most re
spectacle families,with their children, who will be
rejoiced to see the horses 1t is, indeed, fact,
that. in these degenerate days, the iour-footed
beasts are much less beastly than the trash pro.

SCOTTISH MINsTKLsY.-Mr. Clirehugh's enter
tainment comes off this evening at the Society
Library, Broadway. Those who are at all desirous
OF enjoying some of Burns best songs and those Of
his native land will certainly not be absent.
