Universal Franchise Association.

A. the meeting Of the Female Universal
Franchise Association. held last night at $40
Pennsylvania avenue, there were present some
dozen ladies, among whom were Mrs. DR..
hsthawav, Mrs Josephine Grifing, Mrs.
Hall, (of Kansas,1 Mrs. Stebbins, and Mrs Dr.
Archibald Holmes, secretary, and some twenty
five or thirty gentlemen, among whom We're
six colored persons. Mrs. Griffing being called
TO the chair, explain the object OF The meetin
20 be to take into consideration the best means
of securing TO womankind her inheren rights
and 10 place her in that sphere which IL wa.
designed that she should fill The present
charter had failed giving to woman the rights
OF eitize ship in the District to which she was
| entitled, and 1t was well for those favoring
female Suffrage to meet and inquire where the
wrong laid. A great and refreshing change
had come over the condition of woman within
| the past few years, for she was daily becoming
! better educatd d, and her power was being felt,
and through the influence of mothers the
| school boy now can tell more than the pulpit
| or the press dared to do twenty years ago.
Woman. she said, should have a voice in the
legislation OF the country, and woman's argu-
ment regarding the elective franchise is the
same as the colored mans; for by the use of il
! be is made more happy and prosperous, and in
woman.s hands legislation and politics would
! be purer.
Prof. Wilcox being called on, read a very
long memorial to Congress in behalf of woman
snHrast, after which he spoke in advocacy of
the doctrine, and In explanation of remarks
hitherto made by him which had appeared am
blguo as to some of his hearers. On motion, the
HltfnDTldi was referred TO the Executive Com.
mittee. Mr.. Crane urged those in favor OF the
movement 10 meet often and discuss the SUBJ
lect of female suffrage until il became a fixed
fact He thought efforts should be made to
BRING about frequent discussion with those
opposed 10 woman suffrage: which, if done.
would promote the advancement of the cause
which they espoused. Mrs. Hail. of Kansas,
said she wished to get accustomed to the sound
OF her own voice, and thereupon stepped for

bearing on the subject of "woman's woes
wherever she goes" At its conclusion she
submitted series of resolutions, expressive of
the loss the Society had sustained from the
death OF Mr.. John Jollifie. The resolutions
were unanimously adopted. Prof. Wilcox Of
Tered resolutions in favor of equal political
rights TO ALL without regard to race or sex; con
demnatory of any proposition 10 establish an
aristocracy of wealth, under the name of a

proposition TO abolish elective government in
