Uundredi of persons yeiterday, visited the

gregation held a meeting In the Preebyterlan
Churcb on New York avenue, and, after reli
gious exerciaee by th Rv. Dr. Samson, a oom
tnlttee was appointed to have the rubbish re
moved, estimates made, and to recommend to
it eubssauent meeting whether to roof the
basement etory for temporary publlo servloes
or tn ereota new ohurch edifice. The commit
tee Is alto requeeted to eolioit subscription

Rev. P. D. Uurley, 1). D., pastor of the Pros

ernuily tendered tothe Baptist congregation the
use of his fins ohurch fur publlo worship every
Bunday afternoon, and the lecture 'room on
Wednesday evening, which has been gratefully
Hcoeoteil.
We further learn that at a meeting of the B
Baptist Church, held last evening, their church
edifice was also placed at the dlapostlon of their

written repatfdyfer '(icatt notions," but the
Admlnistratkui mr not. rcpOed to his letters.
" What will he do with It I" is a nuule to him.
slf. As tbe exigency demanded tome itnme
dlste action, he haa adopted the plan set forth
In his " General Orders, No. 8," whloh you
hay already published. li any good results
from this polloy, the Government will approve
l; otherwise, not He will be censured for
taking the responsibility, if his plan prove a
failure.
The fact is. that the Government hat a larae
sized elephant, on Its hards, and it ladimcult
to lay wnai must do uone wiin tne negroes and
th Sea Island plantations. Ten thousand
contrabands within out lines, and their' num
ber Increasing dally by aooeeslons from the
main, are to be fed and clothed. Th planting
season Is at haod. -Tbe cattle have been driven
off, most of them killed, and th corn used up
for forage.
Col. Reynolds, th resident agent appointed
by the Government, has the belt theory
upon th sabject that I have yet beard.
He suggests that the plantations and ne
groes, should be leased for one year, at
a fixed price say fir dollars an acre, which
tUaj has been offered for twenty thoussod
acres with ample security, and with suitable
restrictions is to th comfort and education of
th blacks lb Government to appoint a board
ol Intpeoflao td protect the negroes' Interests,
with proper poster to exercise a supervisory
oontrol oyer th whole to eaforoe rights and
redrew wrong. Government certainly cannot
raise cotton at a profit; if it can rsls corn and
potatoes enough lor the negroes' snbeujtence, It
will do mors tban I expeot. , Government can
not build ships, or do any other work, as well
or aa cheap' as ladlvidtalaV So! It will pros
with the'cultnre of cotton. Individual compe
tition may tucoeed in eultivstlog these Islands
at a profit, but Goternment labor wHl be tare
to realize a lost.
Hon. Joscra Ssoab at WBitLi.a. Mr. Sugar
addressed a large meeting at the Wheeling
court-house, on the 18th instant. It was an en
thuslaatlo loyal meeting. Mr.,Segar bis been
an exile from bis Virginia home and family for
a year, because be would not swear allegiance
to Virginia and tbe Confederate States.
Gbcat Fiax. The Bra in Boston, on Monday
night and Tuesday morning, was among the
most disastrous that ever occurred there. Two
firemen were killed and on badly wounded.
Among th leases were 2,000 bales of cotton
and 80,000 bushels of corn and oats. The loss
is estimated at $750,000.
A I'oktical VitToar. The Richmond papers
