3 lit Aftnlra. At the recent annual (tension of the Stile Journal, Jnnior Order U. A. M., the following re jreHentativpH were elected to the National Council: Charles H. Kurtz, John D. Clous, John D. Ooff, JaiuoH P. P. ltrown, and Ben jamin S. lleiff.' The cloning exercises of the night school held at the City Institute, northwest corner of Eighteenth and Chesnut streets, were held last bight. A large nuiubor of persons were present and took great interest in the cere monies. Addresses were made by several gentlemen. A meeting was held last evening at the Oitylnstitnt, Eighteenth andChesnnt streets, to appoint delegates to the National Conven tion, to assemble at Pittsburg on the 3d of March, with a view to alter the Constitution of the United States, so as to recognize God and the Christian religion. Iter. Francis !bnrch was called to the chair. An adjourned meeting of the opponents of Independence Sqnare as a Bite for the pro posed newpublicbuildingswas held lastevening at Merrick and Market streets. Mr. Poulterer, hairman of the committee to visit Ilarris trarg, stilted that he had visited that city on Tuesday, but the bill, that alone could have been acted upon that day, was objected to, and laid over for a week. It will come up on Tuesday next. He then read the bill which forbids forever the erection of any public buildings on Independence Square. Addresses were made on the subject by a nnmber of gentlemen and the meeting ad journed. At 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon the Board of Directors of City Trust assembled at Girard College to take formal possession of that institution. All the inmates and scholars of the college were gathered in the chnpol, and after the usual religions exercisos, led by Frofessor Allen, the President of the board, Mr. William Welsh, made an address. His Honor the Mayor, and the President of Select Council, being unavoidably absent from the city, Professor Allen made a re sponsive reply on behalf of the officers of the college and hinmelf personally. Addresses were also made by William $. Mann, Esq., General Louis Wagner, and George H. Stuart, Esq., and at their close the congregation, after singing the hymn "Rock of Ages" was dis missed. The Girard Cadets, with the College Brass Band, Captain Henry Oliver, command ing, was reviewed as a regiment. The alarm of fire last evening, about half-past ten o'clock, was occasioned by the burning of several frame houses adjoining the extensive cotton and woollen mills of James Nolan, on St. John street, below Ger mantown road, in the Fourth district. Four of the houses damaged were respectively oc cupied by Joseph Foil, Mrs. Myers, William Bartt, and Mrs. Wasthyler. The fire is sup posed to have originated in the loft over the engine-house of the mills, and the flames from thence rapidly communicated to the roofs of the adjoining frame houses on De Witt's court. The gable ends were burnt out of some half dozen of these buildings, and had not the firemen been promptly on the ground the result would have been most dis astrous.. As it was, the flames were extin guished in time to save both the dwellings and the cotton mills. ! WASHINGTON. The Ootennlal Anniversary of the Premal Hildas, f the Declaration of Independence. Wa8iiinton, Feb. 25. The committee appointed to memorialize Congress on the subject or tbeir visit, .have presented the following petition: To the Honorable the Senate and the House of Representatives of the United States: The Declara tion of Independence having been written and signed, by its patiiotto authors, in Philadelphia, and its promulgation to the world first made In that city, and as the centennial anniversary of that memorable and decisive epoch In our country's history is nearly approaching, It behooves the people of the United States to prepare for Us celebration by such demon strations and appropriate ceremonies as may be come a nation so rapidly risen from straggling In fancy to a position of power and prosperity, as at once to command the respect of all Governments and the admiration of th.e world. In order, therefore, to stimulate a pilgrimage to the Mecca ef American nationality, the home of American Independence, on an occason so worthy of commemoration, it has been wisely suggested that prominent among the features for celebrating our one hundredth anniversary there should be an international exhibition of arts, manufactures, and firodncts of tha soil and mines, as thereby we may Unstrate the unparalleled advancement In science and art, and all the various appliances of human Ingenuity for the refinement and comfort of man In contrast with the meagre achievements of a century past. For the fuinilment of this where so fitting a spot as the cradle of onr country's liberty, or hen the time as on the centennial anniversary of the year her freedom had Its birth? In furtherance of an under taking trulv National in its character and so com mendable In spirit, the Councils of the city of Phila delphia, the Board of Managers of the Franklin In stitute, and the Legislature of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania nave eacn appointed committees who, clothed with authority to act for the bodies they represent, respectfully solicit Conirress. by its ac tion, to recognize the fact that the city of Phtladel- puiais, anaoi ngni snoiuu ie, ine pmue hi uoiu, and that the year one thousand eight hundred and suventy-six be tno time to inaugurate, an exmmuon of the Industrv of all nations. When such action as your wisdom may deem proper shall have been taken, in order to place the grand design under your fostering care and control it la hoped the President of the United States will be authorized, In due time, to Invite the participation or all Kovernments.
