Washington Hall, at tho corner of Eltrhlh and Snrinir Garden streets, has become lamous. The triumph of its renown sounds rar and near. Its murky walls and straight-lined windows look upon various and stmnilar spectacles. Upon its benches.

at times, sit the advocates of "universal peace" the Biembers of the Peace Society met In friendly tea-nnrtv? its floors vield and lift to the "tripping of the light fantastic toe its ceiling echoes the cadence or prayer and hymn; the painted pictures on its walls the nomination of Democratic oillce seekers; aud at irregular intervals, to wind up a Hit the Items or which have not all been enumerated, the plugs. knucks, aud rowdies of the town crowd its door- Ways ail.l Strip Upon US piillioi ill lo mm uc nunimnloil In 11 turn or so With the gloves. There were these latter last night. To them was devoted the Hail from 0 M. till midnight, lu lorce, too, were they present, In no contemptible feathering so far as numbers ure concerned, do the.v allow themselves to participate.

Aud what took them there 7 Unon the dead walls, fences, am bill-boards around the city, have you not notl-Jcd few past days a giant poster, announcing Mat "A HrUllll I esillllOllllll Jicucui. 1'J iiuu utvui- wiu and Patsy Keardon" hud arranged, aud furnishing the time and place for the "little mill?" Well, this poster was the herald to the exhibition which came oh" at Washington Hall lust evening. Of course, the brace of beauties whose names were black-lettered upon It were present. They came to pocket the "dough'' kneaded by the lienelit. From the east, west, north, and south of the town; from the alleys, bflua courts, and dark lots from the rut-pits, cock-pits, ami "dives mm every place imputable and questionable came also their admirers to pat their brawn, and toss hats anil touacco quids in air as they "gave and took" In the "set-to." The hall was absolutely jammed.

The 'square-heads" wedged themselves Into the smallest possible compass, piled upon the beaches aud window-sills, and blocked the very doorways. Not one Id the room but either smoked or chewed. The floor ran slippery with expectorated nastlness. Not one in the room but "cussed." The very air palpitated with oaths. Not one in the room bul talked.

The place was a Bedlam a worse. Like apples in a dung heap, a few a very few lolks of respectable mien were hemmed Inhere ami there. Curiosity, we imagine, aud a desire to "see life" had attracted these to the place. An approach, as near as possible, had the.v endeavored to the "make-up" of roughs, unci lu some Instances had they admirably succeeded, one old chap we noticed present tiger team a in vtoae, suns himself lu the windows of a club house, waxes his moustache, and indulges in the costliest of perfumes. Would his wife recognize him He pulled out a clay pipe, set his arms akimbo, twisted his nose towards his left ear, trod recklessly on his neighbor's toes, got out his ye" with easy frraee, and spat In the coat-tail pocket of the mail next before him.

Hadn't we penetrated his disguise we'd have shied away from him us a dog from tin-pull attachment, lint he was only a type of the other respectables present. Of all the crowd each had to pay an entrance fee iirty cents lor admission, a dollar for a reserved seat. Thcv who invested the latter Hum were far In the minority. The great muss wouldn't stand such a tax, but nevertheless insisted on pushing towards the front, until the reserved seats were lost among the "common." The Mogul oi the exhibition the Major-domo was a fellow familiarly called by the audience "Oyster I'pon him devolved the duty of arranging things, procuring champions tu "toe the chalk," providing sponges, buckets, and gloves, introducing the contestants, getting oil" little jokes, keeping everybody In a good humor, and in tlue everything else. Twas not the ilrst time he hail Oillclated in such a capacity, and he bore his part well.

There was considerable delay alter the doors had been opened and the hall tilled, before anybody lu the guise or a "iightlsi" appeared on the siage. As Oyster Jack announced, this was owing to the reason thut the parties uumed ou the placurds had not put in an appearance. Tho room growing im-putlent, and making boisterous and ungentle calls Jack jumped from the stage, and in lieu others seized a couple of individuals about the nrst he reached in the crowd and pulled them Intoa small room boxed iir from the platform. Thence they shortly Issued, stripped to the waist, and after liaving shaken hands to the names of MoUnimgan and Uigley, got to work. For some live minutes they pitched into each other heroically, to the delight of the spectators and the reddening or their own noses.

They issued from the Irav with faces like beets. They were succeeded by nameless ot hers, uud for two hours the performance was unchanged iie continual appearance ufid disappearance of men In couples, who went through divers passages with the gloves. Imagined themselves bow iole pugilists, and smiled grimly when they elicited any applause by their play.

Klikm'KS. The dilapidated building of the Academy or Natural Sciences, on Broad street, be-low Clies- ntii, id is continently expected will soon disappear, as the clllccrs or that institution hve been Tor some time actively nt work in arranging the architectural details for their new structure. This is a matter or no small labor, as the complex needs of the various scientific departments have been by no means easy to harmonize. The question or the site has not yet been positively determined, as one of the libera! contributors to the building fuud has offered a valuable lot on Walnut street. The drawings of the new Academy by Mr.

J. II. Wlndruni have been designed for It to front upon the purchased ground opposite Logan Square. This proposed structure will have a frontage of 1bO feet on Kacc street uud 00 feet on Nineteenth slreet. It will all'ord three times the accommodation of tho present building on Broad street.

It will have a basement, and rise to the height of two stories above. The lower storv, to be circled by one gallery, 111 serve as tae library of the institution; the upper, to be circled by two galleries, will be the museum. The library will be on bv feet. The space below the gallery will bo divided Into llfteen or twenty smad rooms lor the purpose of study, the remainder of tne ground floor being occupied by apartments for artists and the dilators, rooms for the society's publications. There will also be a printing office and bookbindery on this Moor, together with every appliance for stud v.

As mentioned, the second floor, with its galleries, will hold the museum. will be excellently well lighted by tall windows reaching from the floor to the ceiling up past all the galleries without a break. Of these windows there will be forty. Complete and spacious, however, as the new structure will be, It Is only designed to serve as a wing to the main building to be erected at some future time, when the needs and the resources of the society will warrant the A fac-ioiiic of it will be built, when, the curators themselves don't know, at the corner or Cherry and Nineteenth streets. Between these two will rise the liinin edifice, which we can well believe will be no shame to the architecture or the citv when llnislicd.

CAMDEN POLITICS. The County Kepnbllcnn Convention -Addronse vy 1'irflM'N. ri'ClliiKliiiVMcn and Hellle. At 2 o'clock vesterdav afternoon the lienubilcan County Convention was held at tho Court House In Camden, the Hon. Oeorge W.

N. Custls presiding. The following tlckn was placed In nomination, the nomination for State Senator having been made by acclamation: For state Senatcor Hon. Edward llettle, the present incumbent. For bheriil Kandall Morgan, the present incumbent.

For Coroners Robert S. Bender, of the First: John K. Shaw, of the Second, aud Dr. M. Llway, of the Third districts.

Senntor Itottle'n Speech. In his address before the convention accepting the nomination tendered him, Mr. llettlo said: Much has been said of late about a certain mysterious and dreadful thing that abides among us, under whose baleful Influence, like that of the fabled I pas tree, all that Is pure and good and true pines mid withers away. That mythical horror, that dire chimera, has been called the King I The fences and bare walls ol the city have been eloquent with appeals, sometimes fierce, and sometimes pitiful, lor its destruction and downfall. What It Is exactly, where located, what deeds of dreadful import it has done, 1 know not.

Now, Mr. President, if the King means a small and despicable number of laalcohleuts, mischief-makers, aud disorgauizers, vho ure ready and illing for personal malice, disappointed ambition, or reasons yet, morevenal and use a professed and cheap Republicanism to stab their parly, who are its enemies while apparently of lis own household, who are ready to strike hands with Its foes in a vain and futile attempt to disorganize and defeat it, if thut be the Ring, and 1 know no other, then in the name of all that is loyal aud good and true, I say from my inmost soul, down with the Ring. Hut, the Jliiig means good men and true, who have never wavered, never faltered, but have kept brave Ktep shoulder to shoulder, whether In defeat or victory, who ure Republicans from principle, who love their party aud its glorious creed of law. order, progress, and the largest liberty for all Cod's creatures, who have never wandered after Btrange gods or betrayed their trust, who stand faithful sentinels upon the watclitower, who have ever given of their time, their means, and the best, ellbrts of their intellect to promote the success or their party and secure Its triumph, under whatever standard-hearer, it that be the Ring, then I say also, with equal emphuHs, up with the ring and' down with the traitors. Let that Ring include in its ample circumference all that is good, loyal, and true, all that the party holds of liillh, honor, and unfaltering allegiance.

This Ring. Mr. President, is the Republican party, strong In Its devotion, delermiued and resolute of heart, and presenting 1111 unbroken front to open enemies and boiling conventions. Then, sir, from that King, us ever, will proceed no uncertain sound, no envious grumblings, no clamor or disappointed ambition or petty malice, but. the clear ring of loyal, hearty, active eii'ort the sure forerunner of victory.

So much for the Ring-. 1'x-SW'iuitor I'r. Speech. The Hon. Frederick T.

ex-l 'iiited States Senator, also delivered an eloquent address, in the course of which he thus referred -to the administration and tho President: Another reason for the successful Issue of this election Is that I want to see the party firmly supporting our illustrious President. Now 1 know there are sonic lean souls In this world, and they are very lean Indeed, who look without, on tho President. They look upon the personal attentions which every man in the country ought to rejoice to render linn, us a sinister craving alter his patronage, and it is represented in the Democratic papers in that light. During the war his patriotism animated his sound judgment, showed him the priceless value ot this nation to us, to future generations, to the worlL; and his iron will became steel and his courage became sublime, and the command wax, March on! March on: I believe It in the sight of lu'aven to be my duty, and I take the responsibility. (Applause.) A few more patriot regiments enrolled in death their names among the martyrs of liberty, and that Rebel host was broken and destroyed, and ho called on the Republicans thus: There Is a huge Kobel iirmy which threatens thcdcstructiouoruiycountry i will crush it uud the country will be saved.

Fearful, terribly fearful was the execution of that resolve, lie saw the galluutyouih of this country, with the dew of life's morning on their brow, laid in ghastly lines at iiik leei, and ine Jt. oei uosi was unbroken, undismayed. That was the crisis of the war; that was the crisis of the civil liberty of the world; it was whether the sublime proclamation of Abraham Lincoln wjis to bring honor or reproach upon man-, kind. Then, then, he was great Any other man i would have hesitated, would have faltered, i wmld have said, 1 dare not make a greater facrllice, in the sight of heaven I dare not let the 1 army recede. 1 Mr.

Frclinghiiysen spoke In a most eloquent strain for about three-quarters of an hour.
