Pursusnt to advsrtised aotice in the Niws, a mealing of citizens of Oold Hill waa held Saturday evening it Yellow Jacket Engine House. Hon. W. D. C. Gibson ni calWd to the chair, end A. A. Putnam eboeen Secretary. The object of the mettiog waa atated to be to take into consideration the condemnation of the two old dismantled oannon ■ow lying en the Homestead, one of them being the famous old "Qmeral Grant," and their aale for old iron, the proceeds to go to the benefit of the need; wldowe and children of Gold Hill. On motion el Judge Cook the aforesaid atale gnna were duly condemned and the Board of Tbwa Trustees, in eonjonotiou with Z. Lyford, Esq., 8a\x=req-\ penntendent and manager of the Homestead property, were folly authoric J to carry out tbe obj-cts o( tbe meeting, distributing tbe proceeds, after paying rxpenara, among tbe poor and needy, aa above specified. To the credit «f Mr. Lyford be it atated tbat be waa tbe originator of thia public-spirited and kind-hearted sugges\x=req-\ tiun, aad tbe meeting reaulted exaotly aa he bad planned. Tbe guns hare aeen ihrir day of usefulneas, but Lylord now makea them more useful and beaeficial than ever. "All's well that enda well." In thia ooontotioa it ia proper to state tbat Mr. Lyford objects to his elevated and oommaoding grounds overlooking Gold Hill being called "Kurt Homestead" atiy more, but simply the plain Homestead, without any "Fort." Everybody from tbe most ancient days of Gold Hill have known and admired the place as Fort Homeatead, and the thunders of tbe guus mounted on its eternal ramparts have sounded forth oa many a 4th ef July aud other proud occasioua, while the old atars aud stripes waved from tbs lofty flagstaff sbove tbem. But with tbe dismsuiliug of tbe fortress sud tbe aula of its guus for old iron, tbe public will defer to Ibe wishes of Mr. Lylord and surrender ths "Fort." But it does seem a little sad to see its aucisnt glory depart, and turns to Oall it only tbe Homestead hereafter. Nanlnatleoa.

December 11.—In a conversation yesterday Thompson confirmed tbe report of hit acceptance *f the Panama Canal Presidency, saying that ha waa only awaiting further dispatcher from Pari*. Hi» dmiea, ha aaid, wara to b« in tha main supervisory and th* protection of the iotereita of American investors, and to aee to it that neutrality in the management of the canal it strictly maintained. A vto power, to sooie extent, was to be lodged witb tbe Amerioan Board, and it was to have power, to a certain extent, to make contracts. Tbe exact limita of the powers of tbe Asserican Committee have net, be remarked, been very deloitely settled, bat they will be extensive enough to guarantee complete protection U tbe oammeree of tbia oonatry and to the holders of Panama Canal stock here. The Amerioan office will be opened in this city, and here Mr. Thompson will preside. He said ha had not yet oou\x=req-\ eluded upon tbe aation be should take as to bis ssat in the Cabinet.

It baa been traded off, banded ovir to tbe Republicans "body and aoul." It will no longer roll up those magnificent majorities wbioh redeemed tbu State aud placed it in tbe van of tbe Democratic phalanx. We brand tbe four Tammany Aldermen, who voted for Campbell, with Cain-like, ineffaceable marks, and aa objeots witb downcast eyss and burning cheeks, writhing under tbe contempt ol their indignsnt associates, whose recorded action, yesterday will banut tbem during their lives as a hissing reproach.
