WASHINGTON SEwERAGE.--Work has
been resumed in Washington on the
Easily Point and + street sewer. 1t
will connect with all of the smaller
sewers in the northwest section of that
city, north of T street and west Of
Seventh, and it will thus drain one of
me largest areas within the boundary
lines. At the foot of Second street,
east. instead of emptying in the river, it
will connect with an inverted syphon
extending across the Eastern Branch to
Poplar Point, where it will again enter
the earth and proceed on the Mary
land shore of the country, down the
river about four miles, until It finally
enters into the Potomac little way
above this city. The portion OF the
sewer across the Eastern Branch Will
5e in the form of great iron pipe,
which will be laid under the water.
Alexandria will thus get the full bene-
1t of Washington sewerage.

CoL0RED REPUBLICANS.-A mass
meeting was held at Banner Hall, on
south Fairfax street. last night. The
meeting was called to order by J. M.
Buckner. The city call was read fix
ing Tuesday, at 4 O'Clock p. M, as the
time for the election of delegates to the
city convention and o'clock for the
election of delegates to the Culpeper
convention. This was discussed at
length. w. P. Graves being present,
stated that Mr.. Crupper told him he
had no particular reason for the call at
the aboye.named hour, and he assured
the meeting that they would have
fair election, and whoever were elected
would get their credentials properly
signed. He also said there was no
clique to cheat the colored man, or if
there was he knew nothing of it and
wasn't in it. Thomas Morgan then
asked him if the lily whites were not
holding meetings and mapping out
slate on which was his name. MIR.
Graves replied if they were he was un-
aware of it, and would help to kick
against such action, he being opposed
to cliques. He also stated that those
present had the power and the votes
and could elect all colored delegates if
they desired, but he didn't think it
good policy to do so. Some very sharp
speeches from Terrall, Smith, Buck
ner, Preston and others followed,
after which the meeting adjourned
with instructions to those present to
meet at the several places named by
the call to elect delegates to the city
and district conventions.
