Among those VINO took part in the discussion OF

dent OF the New York sorosis who firmly, and
the country have right to vote under the constl.

measure was progressing, and hoped that those en-
gagged In forwarding it would appeal to the heart
in their power to giant them the right OF suffrage.
TINS he believed was the only way IN which they
would succeed, for their victory could never be
achieved BY any political trickery.
The resolutions were furth advocated by Or.
Blackwell and William I. Clark, when there
ensued Ia
LITTLE SCENE
IN which Charles kemond and MIR. Blackwell were
the chief gladators. The latter had said something
about the ranchisng oil ignorant negroes before the
ballot had been given to women, and Ar. Remond,
feeling that his had been insuted, made very
louo and excited protest. which resulted IN an ex-
PLANTATION and apology from DR.. Blackwell. The
solves were made oy Mrs. Isabella Beecher Hooker,
after which the whole series were unanimously
adopted.
STEPHEN FOSTERS FIREBRAND.
Old Stephen Foster, who had remained compare
lively quiet up to this time, now came IN with his
customary budget Of fault findings. He said that
marx. The ladies' and gentlemen had come
longed to the oppressed sex; and this was all
they had done. The democrats and republicans
were alike Sinners and the woman suffrage advo-
Gates should abandon them. He had embodied his
views, be said. In few resolutions. which he
wished TO read, without asking the Convention to
adopt them.
After Foster had finished up his annual round OF
fault finding the Convention addressed by Mrs.
Adele Hazlett. OF the Northwestern Woman Suffrage
Association; Collector Russell, OF the port OF Bos-
ton, and various others.
The gathering altogether was one satisfactory to
those composing 1t; but is influence upon rhe destf
OF New England will scarcely be felt during
present generation.
