Tbe Chairman madoi few remarks explan atory ot the objects of the meeting, iu which he stated that this was a meeting of those who were in favor of freo speech and of the perpe tuity of this glorious Union. They had come from other States with a heart warm for their country, and with tho determination to perpet uate the institutions of our country. They had found those here who were trying to prevent freo speech in tbe Federal Metropolis. One among them, to-night, had recently been in sulted, by one of thosv holding sympathy with thoso who were in arms against the Union, and who was thrown into prison for daring to pro claim his sentiments. He claimed the right of freo speech on tho soil of Washington, the cap tal of the United States. The following preamble and resolution wero offered, and adopted unanimously: Whereas the preservation, protection, and transmission of our free institutions to poster ity, and the support of the Government, as a necessary incident to the procurement of that result, is a paramount object, whuhdemandsour united and vigorous co-operation ; and whereas froo speech and a free press are tho means by which the prejudices aud and mistaken views of the deluded dupes of the slaveocracy are to be disabused : llesolved, That while treason is rife in our midst, and traitors are moviug armies to securo its triumph, we, the loyal citizens of the Union, are called upon, by nvery consideration of pa triotism, to leave no means unemployed to pro tect the Capitol, and preserve the Union and archives ot the nation trom threatened destruc tion ; aud that we pledge to the Government and military authorities of the nation our most cotdial aud hearty support. Able and eloquent speeches wero delivered in sup; ort of the resolution, by C. B. Denio, Esq., of Illinois: General Nje, of New York; General James II. Lane, of Kansas; and Mr. Vinton, of Wisconsin. We regret that want of room compels us to defer tbe publication of these speeches, but they will appear in lull in to morrow's Bejniblican. The meeting adjourned at a late hour, to meet again to-night, when a number of talented speakers will be present, and make addresses. ger, tuntti mpt the passage of the draw iu tho Long Biidge. There was a report in the city yesterday, that President Lincoln had requested Mr. John S. Uaruour to allow the transportation ul U.S. troops and munitions of war to the South, over the Oruugc and Alexandria railroad. We are authorized to say that the report is entirely without foundation. The Mayor hoe had, during the past three days, no single case before him not even a violation ol the pi ace. This, in the present excited state of public feeling, is very credita ble to the community. The locomotive heading tho regular train on tho Loudoun and Hampshire railroad, yester day morning, went out trom this city with the American flag flying from its flag-staff. WimiisoTo.v, April 15. 1801. To the Editor of the National Republican : For the protection of the city aud the public property, I beg leave to recommend to the cit izens from the States (now sojourning in Wash ington) that the present exigency demands the immediate exercise ol patriotism aud loyalty; tbe flag of oar country having been wnutouly assaulted by the hands of trailers, and the per petuity of the best Government ever known to man imperilled, therefore, to avert the further progress of a concerted treason all lovers of the Union are invited to rally and volunteer their strong arms to uphold and defend the Government, its honor, integrity, aud its con stituted authorities. All able-bodied citizens of the above class are invited to enroll themselves and tender their Bervices to the proper author ities for the purpose aforesaid. I learn that a committee has waited upon Gen. Jas. U. Lane, of Kansas, and obtained his consent to com mand a regiment of volunteers, fur the purpose above indicated. His large experience as a commander in Mexico and Kansas commend him as an accomplished officer, a brave, ski 1 ful, and popular commander, under whom tin these times) 1 confidently predict hundreds now in tho city prefer to rally. is all luces. Prospectus of tho National Republican. Believing that the lime lias arrived when the great Republican parly ol tbe United Stales ought Is be fn-rlj ie ri tented In the dally prers of the Nation ii Metropolis, we have embarked in the enterin'- of suppl) ing the cltlrens of the District of Columbia with a daily publication, under the title ol the " Katioxal Kiphslica." In lis pltti.iil department, this journal will advoeute and defend the principle 01 the Repub lican parly, and endeavor to disabuse the public mind ot grouLdless piejndlres which have been engendered ngalnu It, by the false accusations ot its ebemles. Hating the utmost confidence that the iiilmii lMr.itlnti gf llr. Lincoln will be such as to merit our approbation, we expect to lcld it a Cordial, but not a servile support. In the great Issue that is likely to be made with his administration, by the enemies of the Republican pait), the people of Washington anl the District ol Columbia have more at Blake than the peopl of any other portion of our common country. We believe that to support Mr. Lincoln's administra tion will be synonymuus with maintaining the in tegrity of tbe Federal Uniou, against tho machin ations of those who would reud It a-under. No one can douht upon which side ot this Issue the people of Washington will Le found, when they couie to realize that it Is talrly forced upon them. We feel confident, therefore, that in yielding to the administration of Mr. Lincoln a lordial sup port, we shall have tbe sympathy of an Immense majority of the people of this District and vicin ity. It is not our design, however, to make the National Republican a mere political paper. We intend, that as a medium of general and local news, It shall not be interior to any other journal published In this city. We shall pay particular attention to questions of local policy, and advo cate such reforms as we may deem essential to the prosperity ot thu city, and to the advance ment ol the moral aud material welfare of its inhabitants. We deem it unnecessary, however, to multi ply promises, as the paper wil'. immediately make lis appearance, and will then speak for Itself. It will be published every morning, and de livered to city subscribers at six cents per week Mail subscribers, $3.50 a year, payable In ad vance. The publication office Is at the corner of Indi ana avenue and Second street. LEWIS CLEPHANE & CO. DIED. Bnowsr. On the lGlh instant, Martha E., in Innt daughter of Elias E. and Mary A.

They have, however, received a number or recruits, and will probably be mus tered iu a day or two. Company B, Anderson Rifles, met yesterday, but did not appear, onitig to the fact that suv eral of their members refuted to bo mustered in the service. Captaiu F. W.

Mr. Ould said that he was willing to allow a sufficient postponement to enable Mr. Hussell to come from New York to this citv. Mr. Carlisle staled that Mr, Hussell bad late ly departed fur Kansas'. Mr. Ould said be had one of the regularly empanelled jurymen who would swear that he hud seen him on I'euusylvunm avenue last Bun day. Mr. Thompson had stated to him, (Mr. Ould,) before he left Washington, that he would nut be present ut the trial, particularly as he could testify to nothing but what hundreds of others could.
