THE EVENING NEWS.

Union Club was held in Virginia last even
ing at the Headquarters. Although this
was regular business meeting, some few
speakers were unexpectedly called upon.
Geo. L. Almond, late Deputy County
Recorder, was first called upon, and made,
for new beginner, spirited and patriotic
speech. Judge Burbank was then called
upon, and he entertained the meeting at
considerable length, in a sound argument
sative speech. He wildly pictured the
struggle. or rather the true issue of 'Seces-
sion on one side, and Union on the other,
OF to-day. He argued that if the Little
Giant was living to-day he would be found
shoulder to shoulder with Abraham Lin
coin, In the unconditional support Of the
Union. In his opinion, in ordinary times
OF peace two political parties advocating
different policies, were beneficial. but the
time had now arrived when there should
be but one party, and that the party for
the Union. The claim that the so-called
Democracy were Union men, was, to use
his modest expression, "a base lie" Did
they not, on the reception of glorious
news from the East, which placed the
rebels in the wake of the Union armes,
give vent to the utterance of sentiments
which showed their displeasure Did not
they, on the contrary, become jubilant
over every defeat of the Union army:
Could party entertaining such sentiments
consistently be called Union men: No!
At the conclusion of Judge Burbank's re-
marks, DR.. H. NJ. Bein, in response 20
calls, came before the Club as the repre-
sentative of the German Union Club. He
alluded to the causes which had made
him Union man, and said that although
he had received many testimonials Of
scholarship and honor. he had never re-
ceived anything which gratifed his pride
so much as when he took out his first
papers before Judge Hoffman of Califor-
MIA, few years since. Periodically allud-
ing to the colors of the American flag, he
concluded amid loud applause. After
which the Club adjourned for the purpose
Of visiting the First Ward Club meeting.

ton. The building will be lighted by
