A national convection will be held in
New York in the garry part OF March,
the object of which Is to secure grand
spontaneous effort on the part Of the govern
meet and Of the people Of the United States
to promote the development of one Of the
greatest branches OF our national industry
the mining and mineral resources Of the
country. The gentlemen having this matter
in charge state tlleis belief that one Of the
best and most practical means to be en-
ployed for securing 70 desirable an object, is
by calling together from all sections Of the
Union persons who are interested in the
various mining and mineral enterprises and
operations, including gold, silver, copper,
lead, iron, coal, petroleum, and other min
eral products, for conference and consulta-
ton, and the devising and adoption of such
measures as shall appear best calculated to
advance the development of those impor-
tant interests; that such movement is a
step taken in the right direction, and that
itshould be invested with the greatest pos
sible interest and importance, by redering ii
national in IFS character, influence and
results"
The committee, in order TO secure a full
attendance of men acquainted with the sub
ject, and interested in heearly developement
of the mining andmineral wealth Of thecoun-
try, solicit the hearty cooperation of the
Governors Of the several States and Terri
tories to aid them in carrying into effect the
proposed plan, by appointing two or more
delegates to represent the interests of their
respective States and Territories at the con-
vention. They also respectfully request the
Chambers Of Commerce and Boards of Trade
Of the various towns and cities throughout
the cspntry to appoint two or more of their
members to represent their corporations as
delegates at the meeting They further re-
quest the directors and officers of the various
mining companies and enterprises to appoint
one OF two Of their number TO represent
them as delegates at the convention, and to
take part in the proceedings. These APP
pointments should be made at as early
day as possible in order that the result may
be known to the committee before fixing
the day for holding the general convention.

PASSAGE OF THE BILL FOR Me-
Specal to the New York World

special to the New York World.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 49,
The Radical triumph in the House to-day
was complete. Contrary to general antici-
patton and the supposed declared purpose of
the recent Republican caucus, the universal,
unqualified negro suffrage bill for this Dis
trict was passed by one hundred and eigh-
teen votes against fifty-two. The PROPOSE
tons of Mr.. Niblack to table, Of Mr.. OAR
ling to postpone, and of Mr.. Gale to return
the bill to committee for amendment, were
all lost For postponement till March such
Republicans voted as Anderson, of Missouri !;
Banks, Conkling, Darling, Davis Griswold,
Kasson, Latin, Raymond, and Van Horn,
of New York On Gales proposition
to instruct the Judiciary Committee
to report a restricted suffrage till the
Democrats refused to vote with the handful
of Conservative Republicans, and went
against the proposition, thereby defeating
il and compelling them TO face the issue in
the shape of the unadulterated qualified
negro. This forced change of front caused
considerable surprise and no little amuse-
ment, and was the sharpest exposition of
parliamentary tactics developed this season.
On the call of The roll on the passage Of the
bill, the keenest interest was manifested in
the way the Radicals trotted up such men
as Raymond, Darling, and Davis, of SYRIA
cuse to the slaughter. Davis, when his
name was called, voted no, but changed mis-
vote to the affirmative just before the result
was announced. Brandagee, of Connecti-
cut with his feet on his desk elevated high
er than his head, voted aye, apparently ut
terly oblivious of the 5000 majority against
making him equal with the negro in Con-
necticut. As the roll call proceeded, Hale
Of New York; Kasson, of Iowa, and
others, who have advocated, qualified negro
suffrage, voted squarely for the pending bill.
Raymond was standing in one of the alleys
when his name was called, and there was a
little disposition to applaud when this pepi-
tent member cane home to the Radical fold
by voting for the bill. A benignant smile
seemed to pass at that moment over old Thad.
Stevens face, and so the work went on fit
tingly, ILLUMINATING in the applause of the
negroes in the crowded galleries and the
members ON the floor as the result was an
nounced. Such Republicans however as
Anderson of Missouri Ashley, of Nevada;
Benjamin, of Missouri; Farquhar, Of In
diana, Henderson, Of Indiana Hill, of In
diana; Kuykendall, of Illinois; Latham, Of
West Virginia Phelps, of Maryland; Ran
dali. of Kentucky; Green Clay Smith, of
Kentucky; Stillwell of Indiana; John l..
Thomas, Jr., Of Maryland, and Van Horn,
of Missouri, voted against the bill, They
were the only ones who joined the Demo-
Gratis. II is quite probable that this bill will
pass the Senate.

THE following account of a desperate af-
ray AZ Richmond, Kentucky, appears IN the
Lexington Observer:
On last Saturday, being the day for the
,tcesion of State Senator and Representative
Cor Madison county, two families, one named
Kavanauaa and the other Parish, met in
Richmond. when an old luminosity, caused
hv the Parishes some two years ago, by beat
igg and very seriously maltreating the father
ofthe young Kavanaugbs who were IN the
,,ebel army. We have. been informed that
the Parishes, who are desperate SET, have
boon lording il over the country, receiving
hi their conduct the support Of the military,
which being now removed, the young kay-
anaurhs determined 10 bring them to account
for their brutal treatment Of their hiher.
They met in Richmond on Saturday ater-
noon. when the difficulty was commenced by
one Of the Parishes firing the FIRST shot at
Huap. Kavanaugh, when the ARRAY became
general. resulting in the killing Of youth
1amed Dots, nephew Of kavanangh, and
seriously wounding both of the kavanaughs,
one Of the Parishes and Arch. Manpin,
though the latter, we understand, was in no
way connected with the affair, abe shot he
received being merely accidental.

About p. NJ, ON Sunday last, wood train
on the n. & w. r. II. ran off the track, and
q fireman, whose name we did not learn,
was struck by one Of the cars and injured SO
severely that he died shortly after. TIE
accident occurred abost two miles the other
side of Smeedsyille, as the train was APP
proachirig Nashville. The engine and three
cars ran off the track, but were not seriously
damaged. II is thought that the fireman
would not have been injured II he had stayed
ON the train, as the engineer and other hands
who remained on board escaped without IN
Jury. IL is supposed that he became
frightened and while escaping from the car
was run over and killed. Ii is not certainly
known how the accident occurred, but It Is
supposed that the track spread, az the train
was running very slowly al the time.

From the Albany IN. y Argus.
The people of Massachusetts are happy in
another grievance. The landlord of the
American House at Pittsfeld, declined to
receive Fred. Douglas as guest-whereupon
that black Demosthenes Numbered at him
from the lecture room, and the newspapers
declare o crusade against the Hotel.
Why don't these philanthrepists open
their own houses TO the black orator?-Why
is it that Abolitionists always want other
people to recognize the equality of the
negro? Those who send their daughters to
Academies, want the negro 10 be admitted to
the Common Schools, Those who ride in
carriages demand a place for him in the
street cars. The fashionable churches shut
him out of their pews and demand an open
ing for him at the polls. Massachusetts,,
which has no negroes, wants 10 reconstruct
the South ON political negro basisi and the
remote counties Of this State, which have
not dozen genuine blacks in their popula-
ton, want TO make him Juror and Super
wilson's, etc, on Long Island and in New
York.
In all these cases the design is not TO bet
ter the condition of the black, but to annoy
and disgust the common class of whites.
The Puri;ans abolished bull-baiting, not be-
cause il burt the bull, but because il amused
