5k V KN 1 N(t STAK. LiU A L I Sit: LLWESC E. Pbilbarmomc Society?We have bttn in formed that trie Philharmonic Society will repeat their concert on Tuesday evening, the 6*k of March The great deaire on the pert of enr citizen* thet this concert should be re peated. and the many urgent solicitations which have been presented to them, have in duced the Board of Managers to take this step; on which occasion they will present eome of the choicest gems of music frcm the old ma;, ters that have ever been perfotmed in Wash' ington The programme embraces the beau tiful cantata by Romberg entitled the " Power of Song " and the equally tine composition of Bishop?"The Tramp Chorus,'' in which the marshal tramp of Clan Alpine's legions, and their battle shout?" Clan Alpine's cry is win or die ?are delineated with Much surprising effect. The favorite singer of Washington, Mrs Franklin, hes kindly volunteered her services, which were so highly appreciated by the audience on the occaeion of their left con cert. Other favorites will also perform, pre senting altogether one of the most attractive entertainments that has fallen to our let to record. Tho programme will be announced at an early day We predict for the Philhar monic an overflowing bouse. I i. r So Election.?We take the following from the second section of the Constitution of the Washington National Monument Aseociation: "The officers of the society shall be a presi dent. three vice presidents, a treasurer and secretary, with thirteen members to be chosen ?s hereinafter stated, who shall constitute a board of managers, all of whom shall be resi dents of the District of Columbia, and who w shall be tri annually elected'by ballot by the members of the society present at its anniver sary meeting on the 22<1 of February, 1835, and on the tame day in every third year here after." Consequently, the election which came elf yesterday is null and void, as the regular le gal election does not take place until the 22d of February. 185tJ. Ono good wrs acoemp lished by the voting of yesterday, vit: a cot siderable addition to the funds of the associa tion. There will he several disappointments, as we learn that there are already persons getting up petitions as applicants for the offices in the p- gift of the association. We are informed that the clerk had no au thority to publish the advertisement ordering the election. WasbixctoVs Birthday.?We stated, yes terday, that the Scott Guard were to celebrate that memorable day at Georgetown College On reaching there, they were received by the Cadets belonging theroio. After viewing the various attractions to be seen, they were con duced into their hall, when Mr. Lough borough, one of the members of the Phite damic Society, delivered an elegant oration appropriate to the occasion, which was follow ed by Mr. Smith, a member of the same So Iciety, who read Washington's farewell ad f^reis. Shortly afterwards, the company sat J down to a sumptuous dinner, which, having . full justice done to, Capt. Garnett, of the Ca dets. proposed the health of the Scott Guards, which Cept Jamie>on replied most felicit ?wely Excellent music was provided, which -pJejeJ during the entertainment, and mirth and conviviality pervaded the whole proceed ings Officers er the Natiowal Mosume.it As S0CIAT10K ?Tho following ? re the names of the gentlemen who were elected yesterday to we-iJe over the affairs of the Washington M^fument Association for the ensuing three Jfears: ** Vespasian Ellia.
