WOMAN SUFFRAGE CoNvENTIoN.-The
conventions of the advocates OF woman suf-
fraee this year are acknowledged on all hands
to have lost those disagreeable characteristics
that formerly made them a favorite topic for
lampoons. OF the Rhode Island Convention,
held last week, the staid old Providence Jour-
nal says:
The Woman Suffrage Convention met and
adjourned in this city yesterday. The ses-
sions were very interesting, an unusual num-
Der Of talented and effective speakers occupy
ing the platform through the day and even
| ing. 1T is rare indeed that we are privileged
| to hear addresses from so many persuasive
orators Ut the gentler sex. All were charac
terized by ability and fraugbt with genuine
eloquence. The convention was largely at
tended and passed off without jar OF friction
of any kind. The proceedings were marked
by entire dscorum, and the advocates Of the
cause were earnest and logical in the pleas
which they presented, avoiding extra vagance
and viiuperation. Petitions both to the Gen
eral Assembly and to Congress for universal
suffrage, without distinction of sex, were nu-
merously signed, and will be circulated
throughout the State. A Woman Suffrage
Association was formed, auxiliary to the New
England Association, for the purpose of urg-
ing upon the legislature and people of the
State the adoption of impartial suffrage and
such other measures as may be necessary TO
secure justice for woman.

TEMPERANCE FACTS. - Massachusetts,,
Vermont and Maine have prohibitory law,
and they claim, that if the law is not enforc-
ed, they are, on the whole, more temperate
under the law. Massachusetts expends an
nually for liquors retaied there about S23 per
capita for the whole population. Rhode Is
land has a license law, and they retail at the
rate of S45 per capita. Maine has prohibit
tory law, and sells S13 Pc capita California
makes wine TO lessen the use OF ardent spir-
its, but still uses S157 per capita. We won
der how much they would use ii they did not
cultivate wine. Missouri sold liquors to the
amount of $46 per capita. Wisconsin sold
$50 per capita. Pennsylvania sold more than
$50 per capita. New Jersey sells S63 per
capita. New York sold $62 per capita
Maryland sold $50 per capita. None of these
States sold less than twice the amount per
capita sold in Massachusetts.
Compare the following prohibitory States
with four license States possessing, in the ag-
grigate. about the same population, and the
amount OF the retail liquor trade, they stand
thus:

My DEAR SIR:-In 18- (here insert the
name of the year, while was yet (here insert
an infant, a boy, student, farmer, a tanner,
a storekeeper, Captain, Major, Colonel, a
General, as the case may be,) and was resid-
ing in point Pleasant, West Point, Fort
Brown, Detroit, st. Louis, Galena. Washing
ton, as the case may be,) you were the first Man
to nominate me for the Presidency. Please
accept my thanks, and the appointment Of
POSTMASTER, Assessor Clerk, Whisky Inspec-
tor, Cabinet Officer, Consul, as the case may
be0 and believe me as ever my dear (Smith,
Jones, Brown, jenkins, White, Green, Thomp-
SOM as the. case may be.) Your grateful friend
| ULYSSES S. GRANT.
The man who first nominated Grant would
| be delighted with such letter as this, and,
having our hand upon our heart, we fervent-
| ly declare that it is no more than his due.
In Chatham street, some years ago, dwelt
| a colony OF pawnbrokers in single block
The first sign of the first shop read thus:
"This is the Original Jacobs" The second
sign announced "This is the Original Jacobs"
The third firmly asserted "This is the Origi-
nal Jacobs" The fourth was peremptory IN
maintaining "This is the Original Jacobs"
and the fifth insisted that ''This is the Origi-
nal Jacobs" Then came the sixth, which in
enormous letters called the world to witness
that "This is the ORIGINAL. Original Jacobs"
and would take no denial. The man
that first nominated Grant recalls to Us the
touching rivalries of these enterprising mer-
chants, and we wish him equal success in
business. We can only hope that when be
succeeds in button-holing che Presdent-elect,
and narrates his claims to official recognition,
ne will meet with better reception than did
the man who first nominated Lincoln. "Mr.
Lincoln" said that unfortunate individual,
"my dear friend, one moment in private"
Then, drawing the President aside, he whis-
pered in his ear these startling words: "Sir,
I vas the first man to nominate you for the
Presidency" Did you?" exclaimed Mr..
Lincoln, starting back with indignation.
well, Sir, see what mess you have got me
irto!"
