Later-Important Meeting at the Al.
rican Church Last Evening.
SPEECHES BY UNDERWOOD AND HORACE
GREELEY.

An important impromptu meeting was
held at the African church, it being feared
that there would be serious disturbance
to-day. Judge Underwood and Horace
Greeley, Esq, spoke, who entreated their
hearers to be peaceable, and to remain at
their homes to-day. The addresses were
very brief, and tended directly to one OBJ
iect.that of prevailing upon the negroes
TO be quiet.
Should any disturbance occur to-day,
all good citizens of all colors are earnestly
requested to go to their homes and remain
until quiet be restored. Large crowds
but increase the disturbance and render
its suppression more difficult.

CIRCUIT Court OF RIcHMoND-JUDGE
MEREDITH PREsIDING.-In this court on
Friday last motion against Jonathan Ro-
bertS, late sheriff Of Fairfax, and sureties
for arrears OF taxes was made. The coun.
sci for the defendant, S. Ferguson Beach,
Of Alexandria, and j. II. Sands, of this
city, claimed that he should be credited
with five per cent. commission on the
amount of taxes charged against him
which, if allowed, would balance his ac-
counts. This motion was made On the
. construction of the I'D section Of chap
ter 81 Of the Code of Virginia, which
reads: Every sheriff or collector shall be
allowed a commission of five per centum
on the amount of taxes with which he is
chargeable, and if he shall punctually pay
the same into the treasury within the time
required by law he shall be allowed the
additional commission of two and a hall
per centum."
The Judge expressed the opinion that
The word "chargeable in the clause re-
fcrred TO, meant the amounts of money
which the sheriff actually collected; which
opinion was accepted by the counsel for
the defendant.

CIRCUIT Court OF THE UNITED STATES.
The court met at the usual hour on
Saturday morning. The grand jury re-
ported nothing, and retired.
The case of Bigler as. Waller was then
brought up. The following is a statement
OF the case:
In the year 1858, James Bigler, Of New
burg, y. Y, purchased the estate known
IS Rippan Hall, on York river, in York
county, Va, containing 5000 acres, of
William Waller, of Williamsburg, for
$4,000, of which $500 was to be paid in
cash, and the remainder was secured by
a deed Of trust. The purchaser went to
work improving the property, expend-
ing some sl50,0O0. The debt, except
about $4,000, had been paid when the
war began. In April, 1862, the property
was sold by Robert Saunders, trustee,
by direction of Waller, for $1,000
Waller being the purchaser. He obtained
deed for the property, crediting Big
ler's bonds with the amount, and leaving
an excess in the hands of the trustee. The
Confederate Government shortly after
wards destroyed the improvements on the
property, and abandoned the country
in which ii laid. After the war, Mr.. Big
Ter returned and took possession Of the
property, regarding the latter sale as in
valid for this : that the trustee had not
given sixty days notice of the sale in the
papers of New York, in accordance with
the terms of the deed. The trustee ad-
yertised the property for sale, but failed for
the second time in following the terms of
the deed, and application was made
through his counsel to Judge Underwood
that he enioin the said sale which injunc
tion was granted. The counsel for the de-
icndant, MeSSrs. l.. Ii. Chandler, Taze-
well Taylor, General Blow, and James
Alfred Jones, at the last December term
of this court, moved that the injunction be
dissolved: which motion was overruled.
The counsel for the plaintiff now asked for
an account to be brought in between the
two parties of the rents, waste, damages,
&C., &c.; which the defendants objected
to. After the arguments were closed the
court took time to consider.
J. ii. Sands, Esq, of this city, and
Hayward, of Massachusetts,, appeared as
counsel for the plaintiff, and Hon. L. II.
Chandler and James Alfred Jones, Esq,
appeared for the defendant.

anxiously and in great suspense for the
coming of the renowned prisoner; and as
each passenger approached the gangway,
the question would be eagerly asked: " Is
that he?" At length the party came
forth. First came Mrs. Davis and Hon.
James Lyons then Mr.. Davis, with Judge
Ould, followed by General Burton, DR..
Cooper, and Burton Harrison, Esq. The
President walked out of the boat steadily
and with that lofty and dignifed bearing
which our citizens know so well. He
smiled proudly as he gazed quietly around
at the spectators upon the wharf. He had
on a dark mixed-gray overcoat, plain
black frock coat, light pantaloons, and
wore large black slouch hat, while his
feet were cased in pair Of the latest style
CATERS. He was placed Immediately in a
hack with General Burton, DR.. Cooper,
and Burton Harrison, Esq, and driven OF,
followed by another hack, in which were
Mrs. Davis, Judge Ould, and Mr.. and Mrs.
Lyons. Following these was the detach-
ment Of cavalry acting as escort and to
prevent crowding upon the carriages. The
cayalcade went rapidly up Dock street to
Eighteenth, turned there, went up to Main
and thence to the Spotswood Hotel.

along Main street, expecting he would pas.
