GREAT UxIoS MEErIyG.-The First
Ward Club last evening were RECALLED
with choice food. E. C. Bresrlsy, ESQ.,,
for nearly an hour discussed the issues
of the day in q clear, forcible, and very
sensible manner. Mr. b. should can
vass the State, by all means. Benz.
Douglas, Esq, Of Ohio, was then intro
duced, and held his audience spell
bound by his beautiful rhetoric, elo-
quence, and imagery For caustic sar-
casm, invectiye, and solid hits at the
Copperhesd candidates and party, moth
ing to equal it has been heard In this
vicinity. We are pleased TO learn that
Mr.. Douglas will canvass the State till
election, and We advise all who love a
stayiug Union speech 10 hear him.
Judge Baldwin, in q few short remarks,
endeared himself to his old time friends
BY his manly and emphatic denial Of
any intention to be supine or Indifferent
in the coming fight, and assured all that
both he and his brigade scorned to per-
NIT any personal aspirations to turn
them aside from the great end in view,
the success Of the party ; and though
slightly troubled with sore-head, they
would endeayor to transfer that com.
plant next November to the Democracy.
Three rousing cheers were given for the
three gentlemen who addressed tho
meeting, and with the usual three for
Grant and ColfI, the meeting, which
for interest equaled any of the present
campaign, adjourned till Monday even
ing next, when it will be addressed by
several popular speakers, and An oPpor-
tunity presented for all State or county
candidates to present themselves before
the people.
BOLD ASD DARING BURGLARY.-An
exceedingly we'll executed and daring
burglary transpired sometime during
last night at the clothing store Of Mr..
Israel on South c street, Virginia, ad-
joining the St. Louis Brewery. An en-
trance was effected through the front
door by making q hole through one Of
the lower panels through which an
arm was introduced and the bolt ut the
bottom of the door raised, and also n
brace removed, allowing the door TO be
easily pushed open. The hole is a
square one about six inches long by
four wide, and was made by boring a
series Of small holes with n augur or
center bit, and then cutting with a saw
and knife from one 10 tho other. Sew
sral valuable coats, vests, pants, ETC.,
were stolen, but the extent of the rob-
berry cannot Of course be ascertained
where there were so many piles OF
clothing to select from. The thief was
evidently an experienced "~cracksman 3"
and well posted as to the fastening ar
rangements Of tho premises. Don't it
seem a little queer that IL bold and dar-
ing robbery like this could be perpetra-
ted on the principal sidewalk and thor
oughfare Of the city without some Of
those s~harp-eyed Virginia policemen
finding it out at all. The first that was
known of the robbery was some Of the
ueighbors finding the store door open
this morning.
