about the plug uges which appeared in the Star COM
mittce of the Ugly Club in order 10 avoid confusion OF
names, ray, in card to that paper that the Ugly Club
Of the Sixth ward is not political organization but
dancing club that "although the club has no objection
10 receive members with ugly faces 1t docs have
an insupeabe objection to admit into It's society men
with ugly hearts, IL thus appears that the Ugly Club
deal in balls OF description entirely different rom those
with which the plug uges gaed their murdcrous pro-
penses and besides they make virtue OF their ugl-
ness and by attention to their ss cultivate cheerful
ness of heart

TiE NEW CMT- -CouNTERfEiTs. 1t is said that counter
felt cent pieces in circulation intended doubt
to mix with the genuine in large quantities. They will
easily deceive persons casual glance but being made of
pewter like all that kind of coin, have greasy feel and
a slumpy sound that anybody will recognise.
We have heard of of the counerfes being in cir

after while and therefore citizens should be their
guard against the bogus manufacture, which is literally a
"small business

10 The Editor Of The Union
The LATE ELECTION RloTs-itis proposed that public
meeting shall be held Thursday evening by the ct
of Washington TO give expression of their approval
of the action of the federal and municipal authorities In
relation to the riot Monday the lst inst The motive
such will be extremely nudicious the present
time. As vndcaton of the authorities it is not
necessary the entire press of city, and with few
cepons that of the whole country without distinction OF
party has emphatcly approved the conduct both of the
President and the mayor An acknowledgement of thanks
and not vndication of their conduct, is alone called
for But such an expression of opinion would be
i'll timed the part of the citizens of Washington in
view of the necessary action of the criminal court which
meets on Monday next. There will doubtless be many
persons indicted for participation in this riot and Il
is notorious that steps have been taken for the purpos,
of charging the mayor with high criminal offence
Now, this officer and his friends prepared to meet
every such accusation against him with naughty de-
ance and not only in his behalf but also of those who
truly guilty. they seek to avoid any expression of pub
lie opinion which be tortured into charge fore
stall control the Judgment Of the legal tribunals Lei
leave It to opponents to resort at this peculiar
time, to excited public meetings and infammatory ha
rangues and when the courts of justice shall have acted
then it will be appropriate for the citizens of Washington
with all the facts legally established to make known il
the most signal manner their stern condemnation of the
authors of this outrage and their high appreciation
the conduct of those who have rescued our city from
violence and country from dishonor Under thcs,
circumstances it may be reasonably expected that thu
proposed meeting will be postponed until season
able time, when all may unite in the accomplishment o
| a common object. w. L.
