THE ANTI-MAsoNIc LECTURE at Washbun
hall last evening, by Mr. Charles A. Blanchard,
called out an audience that filled Washburn hall,
a large number OF Freemasons among the rest
being present, to hear what the young man had
to say. He prelaced the lecture by prayer,
and then entered upon a discussion of the claims
of Freemasonry to antiquity beuevolcnce, 10y
atty and the support of great men, In regard
ID the remoteness of its establishment, he
claimed that the kind of Freemasonry existing
at the time that Solomon's temple was built, and
up to period of 1853 years ago, was very differ
ent from the order as it has been since; the
former was practical and confined to builders
the latter speculative, and having no reference
to the craft OF masonry. The claim that Wash
ington was a mason, as well as every other great
and good man, he met by mentioning Everett,
Webster and others, quoting their words in de-
nunciaton the order; and saying, furthermore,
that Washington stated in a letter, written near
the close of his life that he had been inside a
lodge only two or three times in thirty years
In denial of the claim set up for the benevOlence
of the order, he referred to the class excluded
from membership minors, blind, lame,
slave-bon, &c.,-taking the ground that the
class to be benefited by joining were excluded
Its workings in opposition to good government,
he maintained, were clearly shown by the fact
that prisoners were allowed to escaped on both sides
during the rebellion simply because they were
MasOns. Other views of the subject will be
treated in his lecture this evening,

GAMBLERS BROuGHT TO TERMs.-In the
smoking car of Thursday mornings express
train on the Hudson River railroad a gambler
engaged western passenger in a game of
euchre. After playing few games the western
man found that he had four queens and an ace
in his hand, and at the same time the gambler
responded that he had got pretty good poker
hand, and would like to bet on it. The western
man responded that he had no money to bet
with. ''Well, said the gambler, "Pll bet you
800 against your gold watch that my hand will
beat yours" This was agreed to, and the watch
and money were put into the hads of the gam
blers confederate. The hands were shown
The gambler had four kings, and he took the
watch. When the train was nearing Peekskill,
the gamblers made preparations to leave the
car, but their progress was suddenly distracted
by friend of their victim, who demanded the
watch The gamblers showed fight, when the
stranger pulled a revolver, and pointing it be-
tween the eyes of the one who held the time
piece, said; 'Pll give you ten seconds to hand
the watch over, if You don't do it, Pll raise the
roof of your skullp The gambler handed back
the watch, and there the scene ended.

From Washington.
IsrEcrAI DISPATCH TO THE WORCESTER srr.I


WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. "a, 1871.
POLITICAL.
EX-Gov. Jewell and wife are at the White
House, the guests Of President and Mrs. Grant.
They will remain week. Mrs. Jewell assisted
at Mrs. Grants reception this afternoon. Mr..
Dixon of Rhode Island was out to-day for the
first time in ten days He was in his seat for a
short time only.
THE DISTRICT GOVERNMENT.
The reference of the bill providing terrtori-
al government for the district to a committee of
conference by both houses ensures its passage
at an early dry. 1t was contested with a great
deal OF earnestness in the senate this afternoon,
but the opponents OF the measure now concede
that it will pass.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM.
The senate debate on the civil service vester-
day and to-day shows that it will be a long time
before any efficient civil service reform bill
passes that body. Most of the senators favor
the present system, with slight changes. The
kind of reform advocated by ex-Secretary Cox
has not had dozen supporters in the senate.
NO REPEAL YET.
The ways and means committee did not final
ly vote on the income tax to-day. Commission
er Pleasanton was asked to give specific figures
supporting his statement that to collect the in
come taxi will cost what it comes to, and he
"Sort o backed out" of his statementlThe COM
mittee complain that he is rather loose in his
statement, and say that he lacks the precision of
Delano. Probably the income tax will have to
go, but it depends much on the course of the
western members. If they insist on thorough
debate in the house, it will not be repealed this
winter. Mr.. Boutwell, meets Pleasanton's gen
eral statements with some rather startling fig-
ures The ways and means committee, how
ever, will, probably, recommend repeal.
THE GEORGIA CASES.
The house promptly seated Corker, democrat,
from Georgia, though Gen. Butler tried to have
him kept out till after the contest was made
There is no precedent for such a course, except
in cases where it is alleged by member of the
house that the member elect is ineligible. Mr..
Dawes made three minute speech, which set
tied the case.
The house had just provided for a special con-
test in this district. The evidence is all to be
taken before the 10Th of February, and de-
cision is expected a few days before the close of
congress. Nothing further has been heard from
the second Georgia district, though the state
ment was made in the debate that Gov Bull
lock had decided to give the certificate to the
man having the smallest number of returned
votes. SAM WELLER.

edge the inCapacity of the military chiefs, and
the feeling has a depressing influence. Dis
patches from Bourbaki and Chanzy were pub
lshed yesterday, and they plainly presage thar
the end is at hand
Last night at eleven O'Clock a general sum
mons to arms was sounded in the turbulent
quarters of Belleville and Charonne but, so de-
pressed was the miserable population, that not
more than 500 men responded to the call. 1t
was useless for such gathering to make a de-
scent on the hotel de Vile, so the emeutiers gave
up the job in despair, and took themselves to
their cold and cheerlesS beds. The unhappy
citizens of Paris are too much wasted by misery
to be able to initiate a revolution, although it is
probable thar soon riots will occur in the
streets.
the names of such revolutionary chiefs as Rol-
lin and Flourens, are banded about with a
view of forming new government
