of the society were submitted by the committee
through the Rev. Dr. j. FL. VanDyke, ir. One
of the designs was prepared by John r. Planter,
Consul general of the Netherlands.
An earnest and entertaining discussion was
caused by the introduction of resolution re-
quirlng every member of the society whose name
begins with Van" to write and print the same
with small ". and those who have Ivan Der"
to use small " and small d. The resolution
also required such members as have the prefix
DE" to use a small d, and those from whose
names the prefix Van has been dropped in
times past should restore and use the same.
George G. Dewitt, jr., showed in two bound
volumes Of ancient documents and seals and
coats ofarms, going back to the Dewitt Grand
Pensioner of Holland, that it would be errone-

members to write their names whichever way
they chose. Action on the resolution was post
poned indefinitely.

gnia Iron Sbipbuiding Company was held
in this city to-day :'for the election of Off
GERS and the transaction of any business that
may come before the stockholders. The
meeting was held with closed doors, and it
was more difficult to gain admittance
thereto than to conclave of cardinals
about to fll the ponti6cial chair.
An atmosphere of injunctions, attachments,
&C., pervaded the vicinity in which the
meeting was held, and the sheriff could be
seen now and then mysteriously fitting
about the premises. The only thing that
could be learned was that there were two
factions at the meeting and that war to the
knife had been declared between them,
which was being prosecuted vigorously
when this report closed. Later, it was re-
ported that the meeting, through some legal
process, had suddenly terminated before any
business had been transacted.

The many friends of Mr.. James Chatham
will regret to learn of his death, which oc-
Cured at his late residence, on Cameron
street, near Pitt. this morning. The de.
ceased was seventy.two years old, and had
conducted livery stable in this city during
the greater portion of his life, in which ca,
pacity he was we'll known almost through
out the entire State. MIR. Chatham was a
genial whole-souled gentleman, esteemed
and respected by all who knew him. About
fifty years ago, when Lieutenant Randolph
pulled President Jackson's nose on steam
er at the wharf in this city, Mr.. Chatham
played 8 conspicuous part in acceleratlng
Randolph's escape, first conveying the lat
ter TO Fairfax Court House, and subsequent
~ to Richmond. The deceased bad been a
sufferer for FIVE years from chronic cystltls
inflammation of the bladder, and during
The pa=t months had been confined to
his bed
