A Temperance Celebration.

The eighth anniversary of Crystal Fount Di-
vision, No. 3, Sons of Temperance, was cele-
brated last night at Temperance Hall.
There was q large audience of ladies and gen
tlemen.
The proceedings were opened with the singing
of the ode, eyes, we in those principles join y
when the presiding officer, b. f. Starke, intro
duced L. A. Gobright who delivered a brief but
able address, appropriate to the occasion, setting
forth the history and objects of the Order and
eoquently concluding with an appeal in behalf of
the cause
Captain Cutter, the poet and soldier, who
served his country during the Mexican war,
highly interested the audience; and was followed
by General Chapman, member of Congress from
Connecticut. The remarks of these gentlemen
were warmly welcomed; and we do not recollect
ever having attended more interesting and bet
ter-conducted meeting, convened to advance the
cause of temperance, which seems to need new
impulse in these days of fashionable drinking and
sociality

Washington National Monument.

We stand in the very meagre minority opposed
to the creation of this and all similar structures
We state this fact to explain what would other
wise be regarded as indifference to an enterprise
to which the attention of the public is devoted,
and by no means with the Quixotic idea of infu-
encing any one on the subject The work has
been well begun, and the offerings Of the corld
are being brought to our city to aid in its COM
pleton. 1t is either to go on to completion or to
exist in its present form a monument of the
lack Of wise forethought of its projectors, or of
the illiberality of their countrymen. The as
ISOLATION for its construction, however, evince
true energy, and their able secretary is indie
fatigable in his exertions. Yet the fruits are
meagre. What is to be done? What have the
monumentalists of the nation to say on the sub
ject? We give them notice, that if they do not
improve their pace, we shall sue for permission to
single over what has been built, and to convert
it to the use of a school, gymnasium or something
else Of universally acknowledged practical utility.

Police System.

MEssRs. EDITORS Your correspondent, :" A
Good Citizen, doubtless thinks that he has ami
hilated "A Taxpayer by his article in your
paper of Friday last. lie has adduced an isolated
case of a police officer who has made already
more than his salary. Does " A Good Citizen"
know that there are fifteen police officers in the
city, at an annual salary of five hundred dollars,
one chief of police at five hundred, six magis-
trates at three hundred and fifty each, and one
magistrate at five hundred Ipresume he does !;
for he writes as though he is one of that number
himself
Now, again. does "a Good Citizen" know that the
constable ESQ as to prevent a loss by the system)
must not only pay his own salary, but the salary
of the magistrate Of the ward also, as well as his
proportion Of the salary of the chief, which will
require the sum of fourteen hundred and t,centy-
one dollars and a fraction for six Of the wards
and two thousand dollars for the Fourth Ward
Now, has this been done, 50 far? Has it been
half accomplished? | will not attempt to answer
this in any other way than by copying from the
National Intelligeneer the last report of the Chief
of Police from which it will be perceived that the
entire amount of cash receipts for the month of
February from the entire city was $259.4S !;
while the expenses of the police system amounted
for that month to $3s3.38, leaving S628.S5 to be
paid by the good citizens of Washington for the
support of the police for the month of February.
What becomes of your facts and figures now, Mr..
"Good Citizen"
If had time, would endeavor to find how
much of that S623.85 for the month Of Febru-
ary "A Good Citizen" would have to pay out OF
his own pocket which, have no doubt, would
somewhat annoy him. Call you this special
pleadiag," Mr.. Good Citizen ?" If 50, you are
welcome to it. And hope, when you again I'M
dertake to refute facts you will look little fur

has done more than his duty

ing says that he writes what he hnowS. 1t is as
follows:
"A matter was before the Cabinet on Monday,
in which all the members perfectly agreed, with
the exception of Mr.. Corwin who, in the CONVEX
sation, reflected severely upon the conduct Of
Mr.. Hall. After quite exciting scene, they
finally adjourned without an understanding;
whereupon the whole matter was referred to the
President, who endorsed the course of Mr.. Hall.
Mr.. Corwin has consulted with many of his
friends as to the propriety of rcsigning, but as
yet has come to no conclusion"
MIR. Corwin has to-day declared that there is
no truth in this report. We know this fact.
