GENERAL: A body of men claiming to be-

avowed object is to subvert the present mu-

assemble in this city on Monday next.
The laws and ordinances of the city, which

to see faithfully executed declares all assem-

and tranquility as unlawful, and such to
be dispersed by the Mayor, and the partici-

same.
1t is nv intention to disperse this unlaw-
full assembly found within the corporate lin
its of the city by arresting the members
thereof and holding them accountable to ex-
listing municipal laws, provided they meet
without the sanction of the military author
tiles.
1 will esteem it a favor, General, if, at your
earliest convenience, you will inform me
whether this projected meeting has your ap-
probation, so that I may act accordingly.
I am, General, respectfully,

SIR: have received your communication
of the 25th instant, informing me that body
of men claiming to be members of the con-
vention Of 1864, whose avowed object is to
subvert the present municipal and State Gov
ernments, is about to assemble in this city;
and regarding this assemblage as one of
those described in the law as calculated to
disturb the public peace and tranquility,
and therefore unlawful, you believe it to be
your duty, and that it is your intention to
disperse this unlawful assembly, if found
within the corporate limits of the city, by ar
resting the members thereof, and holding
| them accountable 10 the existing municipal
law, provided they meet without the appro-
baton of the military authorities.
You also inquire whether this projected
meeting has my appreciation, so that you
| may act accordingly.
| In reply, have the honor to state that the

as I am aware, the sanction or appreciation
fany military authority for its meeting. I
presume the gentlemen composing it have
never asked for such authority to meet, as

The more Information 1 obtain ofth af-
fair of the Both, in this city, the more revolt
ing it becomes. 1t was no riot; it was an
absolute massacre by the police, which was
not eXceled in muderous cruelty by that OF
Fort Pillow. 1t was a murder which the
Mayor and police of the city .perpeetrated
without the shadow of a necessity further
more, believe it was premeditated, and
every indication points to this. 1 recon-
mend the removing of this bad man. be-
lieve it would be hailed with the sincercst
qualification by two-thirds of the population
Of the city. There has been feeling of in
security on the part of the people here on ac-
count of this man, which is now so much in
creased that the safety of life and property
does not rest with the civil authorities, but

Unless good judgment is exercised there
will be an exodus of Northern capital and

Who We Have Lost.

NOTWITHSTANDING the heavy losses of the
Republicans in the Navy Yard Wards, we
have lost but very few of our candidates.
Nichols, in the First Senatorial District, is
defeated; but that result was brought about
by many personal influences as well as politi-
cal and the peculiar attitude of the opposing
candidates in regard to the Senatorial ques-
tion. makes such defeat hardly loss for the
party. General McCandless is the least
Objectionable Democrat that could have been
selected.
In the Second Legislative District, William
S. Gregory, Democrat, is elected-a gain for
that party. SO also in the Fifth, William b.
Hood is chosen. The result In these two
districts can cause no surprise, as the whole
patronage of the Government was turned
against them.
1t will thus be seen that, Notwithstanding
the desperate efforts Of the opposition, backed
by all the patronage of the Administration,
we have lost but three votes in the Legisla-
ture, and We had some twenty odd to spare,

The theatre of the Sultan at Constantinople

The theatre of the Sultan at Constantinople,
which has lately been destroyed by fire, is de-
scrlbed as having been most beautiful, of the
same form as our European theatres. The dress
circle was reserved for the officers Of the Court.
On the first tier were few boxes tor the use of
the diplomatic corps and of the Pachas. On the
second and third Tiers were large bathing gal
leries for the use of the ladies of the harem,
where, unseen, the Sultan's wives could enjoy
the beauty OF the performance. Behind these
galleries were magnificent salons, furnished in
the most costly manner in whicn the fair deni-
zens OF the harem could while away their time
in eating sweetmeats or smoking their
cigarettes.

What Our New York Contemporaries
Think.

Think.
THE New York Tribune, after a careful
estimate OF the returns, and of the special
dispatches placed at its control, estimates
our majority for GEARY to be from 10000 to
10000. and claims that we have carried only
our own members and General Cake. 1t
concludes its leader with the salutation -
"Well done, Old Keystone. New York will
double your majority
The New York Times gives us the State by
from 10000 to $4,000, and also nineteen mem
bers OF Congress- gain OF three over last
election; and, speaking OF the West, adds
THUS far we have nothing from the West,
except a vague assertion that in Eastern ONO,
the Republican gains are considerable. Inere
can be little doubt that the results are Penn
sylyania over again, and that most OF Inc gains
are on the Republican eide. As Tor Indiana and
Iowa, the news will be only the realization OF
estimates all mcln,ng 10 the STRENGTHENING OF
majority noS almost overwhelming"
The New York World comedies the cleo
ton Of General Geary by $4,000 majority, and
also acknowledges our gain OF General Cake.
Ii. however, takes heart because OF the Demo
cratic gains in Philadelphia, and because of
the slow manner in which the returns come
-As II
The results Of the election Yesterday are too
~,tSrls iOr one to state positively the tul result
ir ,Sch State Moreover, little reliance can be
plscci upon the inst dispatches that are re-
tfiyet, since they pass through Republican
bands and are doctored by them to suit them
selves, as was done in the case of the Vermont
ana Maine elections last month But the news,
meagre as it is, indicates Democratic gains
everywhere. The very paucity of reports re-
ceiyed last night augurs well tor the Democrats,
for had the radicals achieved a victory, they
would have spread the news far and wide at
once
The New York HeroId gives us the State
by $4,000 to 10000 and deduces the conclusion
that
Altogether we think the results of yester-
days elections may be pronounced sufficiently
decisive to call for a new departure by the Ad-
minlstratlon and the Southern States in favor of
the Constitutional amendment of Congress now
before the States for their ratihcation. The
gains of the Democrats in the comparative
popular vote in such cities as Philadelphia and
Cincinnati reveal the asss lance drawn from the
Administrations but the general drift of the
popular current outside Of the great cities indi-
Gates more clearly the predominant public 5enh-
ment of the North

Our Victory and the Unionists Of the
Snufh


The result of yesterdays vote will cheer the
hearts of the struggling, depressed, and over
borne Union men of the South. 1t will show
them that they are not forgotten by the great
Union party Of the nation. 1t will encourage
them to hold fast their faith in free principles,
and to labor for their final recognition and
triumph in the South. Let us hope, too, that
it will give them better protection at home.
The late Rebels may as well understand fist
as last, that the era of violence and misrule
at the South must come to a close. Men
must be allowed TO express their sentiments
there as well as elsewhere, without molesta-
lion. The victory OF yesterday means "re-
construction" on the plan OF tree schools, a
free press, and free discussion. Let our
Southern brethren conform to the situation at
once.
