Convention of Colored Persons.
Troy, Wednesday. Sept. 5, IS5:

TRoy, Wednesday, Sept. S, 1856.
"The State Con7ention of colored men
to-day adopted platform, in which it was
resolved to give the ear of our Legislature
and of our fsllow-eitizens generally no
peace until they shall wipe from the statue
book the anti-republican property qualifi-
cation. A Suffrage Association for the
State was organized. The Convention ap-
pears to be decidedly Native in it proclivi-
ties"
We congratulate the Know Nothings on
the accession to their ranks Of the "Col-
ored population" of New York. We trust
that all true friends of the South. all hon.
est men from whatever quarter they may
come, either from Europe or our own
America will take warning in time, and
repudiate this miserable faction of traitors.
Remember that the only true friend ofthe
Union, the Constitution and the Equality
of the schi.e man is the Democracy of the
nation.

The Election.

We feel that more serious occasion for
a full end un,ied action Of Pro-Slavery
party is demanded at this, than at any time
since the organization of our Territory
The enemy alert, moving every thing to
carry their end, organized secretly, and led
by willy and unscrupulous men, will defeat
us unless every man turns out to the polls.
We must record larger vote shan we have
ever done before. Reeder viii be run on
the day Of the election il there is any apa-
thy in our party, and if not, will week
after be voted for, and il he polls as large
a vote as Whitfield will go on to Wash
ington and demand his seat. The House
has very large Free-Soil majority, and
of men who will scruple at nothing to ac-
complish their unholy purposes. Unles:
we poll larger vote than they can mus
ter, we will have no delegate in Congress-
or worse than none; Reeder.
Let no man then stay at home for nc
consideration. One more strong rally and
the day is all our own.

The Cycle.

Il seems that the "Cycle" did not write
his article on the Kansas Legislature with
much accuracy. Admits he did not mean
what he said about ''jurors." We rather
think if he will get Lawyer to look over
that portion Of his article on the School
Lands, he would like to get off on the
same plea. as there are more errors, and
stupidity in it, than in the other portion OF
his article.
OF one thing we are very certain, that
is, he will find no man, in or out Of Kan
sas, but Free-Soilers and Abolitionists
who, will endorse his article. His express
sion "Rump Parliament" has not even the
merit of originality in it, but is only pla-
giarism from the abolition presses of the
Territory and the nation. We fear he af-
filiates with the Boilers of the National K.
N. Convention at Philadelphia. The 9TH

The following were chosen Delegates to

The resolutions adopted fully endorse

Know Nothings with much emphasis
compliment Henry A. Wise for the bold
stand he took against the "Secret party"
in Vrginia-unequivocally condemn the
Maine Law in Massachusetts, and call on
all Democrats and liberal men to vote for
the Democratic nominees.
After the adoption of the resolutions the
following State ticket was nominated by
acclamation:
For Secretary OF State, Jonathan E.
Field of Stockbridge; Treasurer, Stedman
Buttuck of Concord, Auditor. Oliver Ste.

Hints to young Married Women.

AS soon as the rites are consummated,
shake off the veil of deceit which has SO
disguised you from your lover. and show
your husband all your mental deformity.
Having shown him the bright side of your
character when you were ensnaring him,
show him what fool he was, by giving a
specimen of your darkest traits in batch.
He will be certain to feel Lord Byron's
seven additional years as soon as propne-
sled.
Believe that now life has no cares
With your maidenhood you shook them off,
and took up indolent pleasures and wretch
ed selfishness. Your husband is the scape-
goat of all your sins and peccadilloes. and
is slightly responsible for them. Do not
neglect these privileges.
Your principle business now is to adorn
YOURSELF IF you are handsome, so much
the better will the riches, clothes become
you; or If plain, so much more need OF
helps to beauty.
Never hesitate about obtaining any ar.
ticles on account of the expense-that is
but small afair-get whatever becomes
you, and often as the fashions change, es.
pecially if your husband has an account al
the store. The size Of your income is o
the least possible interest to you, although
it may result in depriving you of youl
