A preliminary meeting of tho friends of tem perance favorable to political action was held yesterday evening, at the northeast corner of Ninth nnd Spring Garden streets. R. M. Foust was called to the chair, and I. Newton Pierce elected secretary. Tho object of tho meeting was explained by Mr. Pierce, who stated that the lute netiou of both the popular political par ties In nominating for prominent official posi tions men who were actively engaged in the manufacture and sale of alcoholic liquors was repugnant to the moral sense of the community, und the true and consistent temperance men could not vote for such. Hence it seemed im perative upon us to select other candidates. Further, as the temperance people throughout the country appear to bo moving towards the formation of un independent prohibitory party, we should be prepared to meet this movement, nnd give it proper encouragement. Mr. Pierce, on behalf of the committee, then offered tho following, which were unanimously adopted: Whereas, The citizens of a republican govern ment have a just right to claim protection from social evils aud vices as well as individual crimes; nnd at least three-fourths of all the crime, misery, and suffering now debusing, de grading, and "destroying our race are caused by the sale and use of intoxicating drinks; and whereas, tho present political parties not only ignore these facts, but, in the face of them, pander to the wishes of the runisellers and yield to the dictates of the rum power, and heed not the untold sufferings of thousands of innocent wives, mothers, and helpless children who call loudly for help, for relief, for protection, us well as the enormous expense and taxation arising directly lrom the enormous evil of intemperance so rapidly increasing; and whereas, all other great political issues heretofore before the American people are now settled, and there never was a more auspicious moment, and may never again occur in our nation's history so propitious a time for the gathering of tho tem perance hosts to unite and exercise all the rights a just God has given them for the overthrow of this giant evil; therefore. Resolved, That we will unite all onr power nnd influence in the establishment of an Inde pendent temperance political party, whoso object shall be the enactment and rigid enforce ment of stringent prohibitory laws against the manufacture and sale, or giving to others as a beverage, any liquors that can intoxicate. Hesoleed, That tlio present political parties by a portion of their late nominations have for feited all the respect and confidence of moral nnd intelligent citizens, nnd have clearly shown that they consider runisellers nnd distillers to bo among the most worthy of our suffrage. which wo most emphatically repudiate and deuy, believing that no man should be nominated for any ofKco in the gift of tho people much less receive our votes who is not a teetotaler and who is not only opposed to the traffic in intoxi cating drinks, but is in favor of stringent pro hibition. Resolved, That we will wait no longer on the present political parties to recognize prohibi tion, but will at once take measures to form a distinct temperance party, believing, ns there is a just God lu Heaven, we must and will ulti mately triumph, and in IJiiu we "ut our trust. Jiesolvi d, That a committee of nine bo ap pointed by this meeting as a Committee of Ar rangement for the calling a city convention, for the purpose of perfecting tho organization in this city of n temperance party, said commit tee to issue a cull and fix the time and place for holding said convention, and make all other necessary arrangements. Resolved, That we elect ten delegates to repre sent m in the Great National Temperance Politi cal Convention, to be held at Chicago, Septem ber 1. 18 9. and that these delegates Deiurnisuea with credentials properly signed by the olllcers ot this meeting. The following were chosen delegates to the National Convention, to beheld at Chicago. Sep tember 1, 1809: K. M. Foust, I. Newton Pierce, Edwin II. Coates, Edwin Booth, George Gable, Samuel 1).

The flimiibS refused to suspend the rules by a tote of 13 to 10. Common Council bill to buy A Ml acres In Dela ware county, known as the Alburger farm, as a site for a house of correction, wan taken up. Mr. Pluinley protested njnlnst paying 7,000 for a property which he personally knew had been offered by Mr. Alburger for fMfl.O'Ml. Much of the ground is marsh. At alow lture it would not be a desir able property; at the present price it is simply an absurdity. Mr. Smith remarked that tie lands of Aubrey Smith, adloinlng. cannot be bought for less than $250 an acre, aud all the grounds adjacent are of equal value, in tho opinion of the speaker, the ground of Mr. Hill, rejected by Councils, was the most available property yet offered; but, having rejected that, the speaker looked upon the Alhutger larin at the hett that the city could obtain. Mr. Cattell pronounced the price of the property as too high. There Is a great deal ot low ground with it, and It really Isn't suitable for the purpose, it would be a great expense to keep up the banks along the creek; transportation to the locality Is expensive; there is really nothing to recommend it for the purpose proposed". Mr. Cattail vehemently opposed the proposed purchase. Mr. Kerr, one ot the committee, said that he visited the property prejudiced against It. Hero turned from his vlit convinced' that of the ton properties offered for the purpose, this property, at the prlre, was much the best yet offored. Mr. Mcflvain expressed the belief that at J175 per acre this property was very desirable. It was upon larby creek, a navigable stream, by which stone for building can he brought from adjoining quarries. Tho ground includes at least 1W acres of upland, and It Is a mistake that any consider able quantity of it Is linblo to overflow, or consists of marsh. The Ice-houxo attached to the mansion is sixteen feet deep, nnd as dry a any othor In tho city. The property Mr. Mcllvain cousldored in all respects desirable. The Chamber refused to suspend the rules, and the matter was laid over for future action. An ordinance permitting the Fonntain Society to have all needed supply of Schuylkill water with out charge wns agreed to. An ordinance appropriating PH21) to repair the school-house atTwculy-slxth aud Thompson streets wns recommitted. The bills from Common Council were now taken up. For the employment of additional council to rep rcsnit tho city before juries to assess Park dam ages.

The following wero concurred In: Bill appropriating 44,000 to pay arrearages on State tax. Authorizing the construction of culverts across I.ancnstcr avenue at Forty-eighth aud Fiftieth streets. One appropriating $300 for printing the new City Digest. One appropriating $1300 to repair the Lincoln grammar school.
