Association Of the First Ward was to have held

corner OF 18th and Boundary streets last night
but the crowd who had there assemb, I'd, to the
number Of about thirty, were disappointed, as
All was darkness within the building, and the
key was not forthcoming. They finally pro-
ceeded to house in the neigh b6rhood, where
the meeting of Workingh men resolved itself into
a mass meeting, calling Mr., Chaxies Syphax to
the chair, and electi1g Wm. Prsnder secretary.
Of the First Ward bad chosen delegates TO the
nominaong convention who were almost all en-
ployed In the Treasury Department, and had no
practical interest. IN the city. Two OF the
chosen delegates had always been opposed to
running on the same ticket with eolered men.
Thus, the fnvmc1bles had paid no attention to
the laboring men Of the First Ward, and thew
we're forced to act for themselves. Mr. Syphax
then read from an old file Of the National fateui-
gencer q statement that MIA. q. Richaris had
declared that universal suffrage was a failure,
and he was followed by Mr.. Joseph jackson in
q pertinent speech. Mr.. Prender then offered

RuraI CarolIafon for september.

This splendid number is fitting close
to the first volume of ne of the abiest and
best conducted agricultural periodicals
which has. ever appeared in this country.
OPENING with valuable illustrated article
on Hedging, which cannot be too atten-
lively studied by the Southern farmer, 1t
follows it up with contributions on IS Farm
Life in Brazil" Sugar Farming" Port
Wine Country Winter Pastures" and
other subjects of equal interest, alltreated
in thoroughly practical and Interesting
manner. An illustrated article on Cabbage
Insects is Of especial value to our farmers
wives and orr market gardeners. In the
Pomological Department. the magazine has
gained great accession to its contributors
in Mr.. P. Berckmans, of Augusta, Ga, SO
we'll known throughout the South as good
authority on the subjects about which he
writes. Col Aiken again fills number
of pages, and no agricultural magazine
can fail to be interesting that has the
benefit OF his faeile pen, backed by his
practical experience. We are sincerely
glad that TIE Rural C(WOIiniQ1e has met
with such marked success, because it shows
that our PEOPLE can appreciate what is
really good, even lift does come from home.

change of prisoners has much new light
shed upon it, and the narrative of the
conference between President Lincoln and
the Confederate Commissionels.< al Hafap-
ton Roads, is the fplleat and most valu$he
vet given to the publlc.> Mr.. stephens
was the principal negotiator on the South
ern side, and his statement will be accept
ed without caYil or dispute.
The form Of the work, as already point
ed out, is awkward and clumsy, but this
small, blemish, deesnnet 7detract from ats
sterling value aud great Importance Mr..
Stephens writes calmly and temporarily.
without acrimony or partizan feeling. In
the. privacy of his BONE he has been able
to review the past in all its length and
breadth, and the result is work which
adds the graphic charm Of Romance to
the Judicial, severity of history. This
work upon The War between 70 the
States q shonlds be zfound in every South
ern household, both as o record Of the
events of the most pregnant years Of our
history, and DIS an official statement. from
the Southern stand point, of the causes
and reasons OF Secession. The book is
