The enthusiasm shown on Monday evening proves
that the next meeting on Tuesday will be the
grandest demonstration yet made by the Conven'

USIoN.-The regular monthly meeting Of the Union
was held Monday evening, at Mechanics Hail.
Hester.st. between Mott and Elizabeth SITS. David
NJ. Oakly presiding, Thomas McAndrew, Vice
President, and John Landers, Financial Secretary,
officiating. This excellent Protective Benevolent
Society is taking a noble stand in the cause OF
FORM and takes every step necessary to secare
redress of the grievances TO which the POrters as
class are subject. After holding great number
of primary meetings, and commencing with but
few members, the Society now numbers great
portion 1.-The best Porters in the CITY, IS alry and
constitutionally organized. The special meetings
every Friday are no longer held, only the regular
monthly meetings on the first Monday Of each
month The Union strongly disturbances the
EXPRESSES from other States and Counties, who
lumber Up the streets without paying any compen-
sation 70 our City authorities toward the expenses
OF the Municipal Government, and deprivlng large
portion of our citizens who are regularly licensed)
from earning their living No wonder the Porters
are poor and despised, while such infringements
upon their rights are tolerated. We trust that our
merchants and the community generally will sas-
tain the members of this Union in their endeavors
to ameOrate their condition.
They have adopted most excellent Constitution
for mutual benefit and protection, document from
which any Society in the City could take pattern
and recognize fraternity with all departments of
labor whether benevolenty or protectivey asso.
ciated. We hope every Porter in the City and
County holding license will come forward TO this
Union and thus assist in tne protection OF their
rights and secure the removal OF their grievances.
Why do not the Police carry out the ordinances of
the CITY and the State statutes which expressly
protect the PoTters II is now time for our
thorities TO move in this matter. bet the Com.
mon Council, now in session, take the initiative
steps and have the laws protecting these Indus
trials strictly inforced and citizens protected In
their legal rights. Don't let the efforts made by
the noble men who compose this Association prove
abortive while at q moments command every P0r-
ter in the City could be guaranteed in his rights.
Attic next meeting the Committee will report an
address to be laid before bis Honor the Mayor, and
see what effect such a solemn appeal would have

manner in which it had published the advertise.

made for their publication.
