ANoTHRR NATIONAL CONVENTIONAL cir
oniar dated Baltimore, calls for a convention
OF the colored people of the United States TO
assemble on the 1?th of January next m this
city. The circular thus explains the object of
the con nyenton:
THE partial or total exclusion OF colored clti-
zens from the elective franchise and other cit.
zen rights IN so many States OF the Union
demands, and ought to receive. the continued
consideration of every col0red man, and of the
Congress of the nation. Surely, the fourteenth
amendment OF the United States constitution
recently adopted. does not justify such exclu.
sion. Surely, citlzenship, as declared by that
amendment, carries with il the rights Of citi-
zens and the evident duty of liberty -loyiug
and loyal Congress is to see that a republican
Ioi m OF government rs guaranteed while any
state rs permitted to withhold from citizens on
account of color merely, the rights of citizens
Whatever other subjects you may deem of suf-
hcient importance to bring before the national
convention, brethren, this exclusion is the all
absorbing question of the present, aud must
call forth our earnest action, by % clifton, by
personal appeal, by protest, and by what votes
we have. until justice be done. The right se-
cured of voting. irrespective of color, will nee.
essarlly restore TO us other rights Of which we
are now deprived"
