Resolved, That it is thu sense of the Central

importance, stirring in political circles yester-
day. A small number of the members of
the Legislature we're in attendance at the
State House in the evening, but their pres
e9ce appeared to be more from the force Of
habit than anything else.
-. Those who ought to know, say that our
city is infested with thieves of the very worst
class. Burglars, pickpockets, garroters, are
here in mobs, and our citizens should be on
the qui uive for them. Already the number of
robberies has increased to an alarming extent,
and it behooves Col. Loan and Capt. Malone to
bestir themselves, as the people look to them
for protection.

however magnificent its preparations.
The hall was decorated splendidly, the
ceiling and sides being hung in exquisite
taste with the flags of all nations, draped in
excellent taste and enclosing the room in ex.
cellent style. At one end there was raised

and large oil paintings Of Gems. George WASH
iugton, Andrew jackson, and Zachary Taylor
formed handsome background. At the op.
posite end was large tent made CT American
flags, probably the headquarters, and on
either side q small field tent made, as the
other, Of our national colors.
Over the central tent and affixed to the
railing of the gallery was Q large oil painting
of that gallant gentleman and brave soldier,
Col. Geo. Clark, the old commander of the
Continentals, now gone to his long rest, but
faithfully remembered by his admitting and
brave companions. There was just above the
picture large canvass be. ring the admiring
and deserved comment: Beloved by oil;
Admired by all; Lsmented by all" A fit
tribute to noble gentleman's memory.

lar pedestal covered on the sides with Ameri-
can flags, and terminating at the top with O.
large globe, decorated with smaller flags and
upholding large statue of 'Justice;" making
a very pretty display, and bespeakine in very
truth the spirit of the gallant Organization.

seeking the wishes and pleasure of their
