day, the ed inst, we received the following notice
which has been sent to the New York Tribune for
insertion.
w understand that the Northern Convention
announced to be held at Cleveland on the 28th will
be postponed, probably till spring on accoun, Of
the unavoidable absence of Wendell Phillips and
the financial pressure of the times"
Thus it seems the Northern Convention is post
poned. The notice comes at so late an hour that
there is not time. we fear, for it to reach some Of
our distant Western friends before the time for
their starting for the Convention. Nevertheless,
we shall do our best to give them ormat of
the postponement Of the Convention, and also to
announce the fact to all within our reach that there
WILL BE A CONVENTION HELD AT THE
TIME AND PLACE SPECIFIED.
Such a Convention ought to be now held inCleve-
land for Northern Ohio, and it will be SO held on
the 28th inst, at Chapins' Hall in the city of Clev-
land. To this meeting we invite the attendance Of
all earnest men and women.
