Pursuant to a call issued by Mayor Drum, of Allegheny city, at the request of num erons citizens petitioning the same, a public meeting was held Satur day evening, the 26th Inst., for the pur pose efi having an expression of public sentfaient relative to the location of the Allegheny county Soldiers' Monument. The meeting was to have been held j 211 . front o 8 the city banding, but in come qUence of the heavy rain which fell about eight ! o'clock, the how at which the meet ing was ealitgl, it was decided to meet in the Comecon Council 'chamber, whither the multitude assembled, Whig the spacious chamber. On motion of Mayor Drum, : the meet ing was organized by calling Jas. Mar shall, Esq., to the chair. The Mayor, at the request of the Choir man, then in , a brief manner, stated the object of the meeting.- He that he had received a petition signed by one huudrs and seventy-five of the leading (Athena protesting against the action of the Allegheny County Soldiers' Monu mental Association in locating tbanion ument in the Allegheny Cemetery, and asking_him to call a meeting of the citi zens, ilitorder that an expression of pub lic sentiment might be obtained in re gard Jo the matter. On motion of William M. Porter, the following named gentlemen were elected Vice Presidents of the meeting: Messrs. 0.0. Phillips, F. R. Bruno; Jas. Cald well, Capt. Richard Gray. James M. Cooper, James Frazier, John Heath, G. Wettach, James Sewell, Samuel H. Hart man, Dr. Wm. B. Heziep, Wm. M'Gee, Chas.- P. Winston., W. J. Kounta and EdWard Gregg. . The reporters of the press were elee fed Secretaries. On motion of Mr. Porter. the following gentlenhse were appointed a Committee on Resolutions: Col. Jas. F. Alliton R. D. Thompson, James McCuteheon, H. E. Davis, Jno.Brown, Jr., and John Megraw. Daring the absence of the Committee, John A. Myter was called upon; and ad dressed the meeting briefly. He pro tested against the action of the ladies having the matter in charge in seleeting the Allegheny Cemetery as the location for the monument. 'As a lot holder in the Cemetery he would enter his pptnest against it. He would not urge the „loca tion of the monument in Allegheny if a better site could be obtained elidg where, but he thought it should be so situated thee all who desired to visit and look at it could do so at any and all times I ns withough, 4 comultal! . .o pbta i iitmg e) Capt. ICC' . Kounta was neat pilled • upon to add the meeting. He said It would not be in good taste for him to ad vocate the location of the monument in . Allegheny city, as it might be said he was personally interested. - Mr. James Mcßrier was next called upon, and addressed the meeting briefly. He thought it injudicious to censure the ladies for the action they had taken, as they were doubtless conscientious in their views, and perhaps did not see the matter in the same light that many oth ers did. ' REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE. " The Committee on Resolutions through their Chairman, presented the following preamble and resolutions: WHEREAS, As citizens of the city and county of Allegheny, we have assembled for the purpose of giving expression to our feelings in relation to the action of those of the incorporators of the Ladies' Monumental Association who took upon themselves the responsibility of designat: ing the Allegheny Cemetery as the de pository of the proposed Soldiers' Monu ment; and, Whereas, Without pausing to discuss the questionable proceeding by which this decision was reached, as citi zens of Allegheny,we regret the hasty and injudicious selection of the incorporators in consigning to almost comparative ob livion, the monument intended to be , an ever in•asentireininder of the heroism' of our tatherVbrothers, sons and friends who, died that the nation might live. And whereas, custom and common sense suggest as proper places for public. monuments, points most accessible and commanding. The hiding of a public monument, such as the proposed Soldiers' Monument, within the high walls of.the Allegheny Cemetery, where i can .scarcely be seen from' the loftiest hills surrounding both cities, remote also from the great bulk of the population, access to whit* cannot always be had without trouble-- is one of those proceedings for which we are wholly 't unable to account; and whereas, it , is not from any selfish mo tive that we utter this, our protest, against the action of the incorporators, simply becausothe sites proffered by the Allegheny - Park Commission were in considerately rejected by the Monu mental Association, and declare our readiness to cheerfully, acquiesce in any other locotion, oombining the necessary requisites of accessibility and -promi nence; therefore, Resolved, That this meeting earnestly and sincerely protests against locating the Soldiers' Monument in the Alle gheny Cemetery, because, in our opin ion, it does not offer a single requisite. Resolved further, That we sincerely trust that the ladies having the matter in charge will reconsider their action, and (disclaiming any discourtesy) sug gest to them to recognize one imp:giant fact, that they ,represent only a- small. portion of those whose money was _con ,tributed; aft& also of those who 'repre sent:tile heroek whose:deeds and. memories ibitemontithent is intended to 'perpettustb in thibitodtmunity. 1 11. , M.,?dOrrilsod, Esq:, was called upon 'to addreils the • meeting. and Spoke at: ceniliderable length, opposing the no. .tion , of •the.
