In the House, the Committee on Military Affairs
was discharged from the further consideration OF
so much of the report of the Board of Army and
Navy Officers, assembled by the President as
relates to staff commissions and brevet ranks,
which they recommended for adoption.
The House then resolved itself into Committee
of the Whole and took up the River and Harbor
bill.
During the debate, an effort was made on one
side to show that the bill was an Infamous system
of logrong and unconstitutional, and, on the other
side, that it was the reverse.
The sub titute for the original bill nearly similar
was adopted

The LADIES FAIR AT ARMoRY HALL.-We
were much gratifed last evening to find the Hal
crowded with VISITORS and to perceive that they
were exceedingly liberal in their patronage. The
ladies assured us they had abundant reason to be
satisfied with the result Of the evening business
but we sincerely trust the attendance this evening
will be still larger, and that every thing hand
will be disposed Of We confess we were a little
disappointed in not seeing greater number of sea
captains and other officers present last evening, but
we anticipate that they will be out in full force this
evening, and that they will evince in very sub
stantal manner their interest in this cause.
The ladies', we are requested to state, will spread
a collation. in the Hall tomorrow, at II o'clock,
and we trust all who friendly to the object for
which the entertainment is given, will be there
to lunch. We expect to be there ourselves, and
shall be quite disappointed if we do not see full
house.

The RIor AND OUTRAGE AT BosToN-The
Boston papers contain full details Of the disgrace
u negro riot and rescue of prisoner in the court
house, which occurred in that city on the 18th,
and most of them denounce the transaction as a
foul stain upon the honor of Boston. We make
the following extract from the Courier's descrip-
lion Of the scene:
The only indication of disturbance noticed thus
far, was that of Elizur Wright, one of the editors
of the Commonwealth newspaper, who approached
the prisoner, and said: "Where were your hands
when they came 10 arrest you! Why didn't you
defend yourself! Why didn't you seize upon any
instrument you could get hold of! If | had been
there and had a pair of pistols, would have given
them to you, to shoot them down | would have
used them myself" Mr.. Riley, for this breach of
the peace. ordered Mr.. Wright to be taken ont of
court.

other night, got black eye, and made speech.
