I Second. County organizations, with coun
ty chairman, whose duty it shall be to or
ganize tradesmen's associations and to work
for their development and to secure concert
of action for mutual benefit; and a constitu-
tion and bylaws were submitted for an or
ganization to be known as the National La
Dor Union Of the United States, and mo-
tion that they meet at Memphis, Tenn, in
June next, was carried.
A resolution was adopted that the con-
vention petition the United States Senate
and House of Representatives to pass a bill
incorporating company, under the name
of the Freodman's Homestead Company,
embracing the features contained in the
House bill No. 1910, and that committee
of FIVE be appointed to draft said bill. and
that Hon. II. b. Elliott, of South Carolina;
j. Il. Walls, Florida; IL. Nj. Sumer, Flori-
da, and j. II. Rainey, South Carolina, shall
be that committee, and said committee shall
present said bill at the earliest possible mo-
ment.
A resolution was adopted setting forth
that as the time fixed for the meeting OF the
present convention was unfortunate, owing,
in part, to important canvasses going on in
many Of the Southern States, rendering it
impossible for many influential colored men
to attend, and as it had been stated many
colored men disapproved the call as being
for class convention, the present president
be authorized to call the national conven-
tion TO convene at New Orleans, La, on the
second Wednesday in April, 1872, on basis
of representation Of two from all the States
and Territories at largo, and one delegate
from every 10000 voters, and each lractio-
| nal 10000 voters.

WOMAN's RIGHTS.

Il is her right to bind with warmest tics
The lordly spirit of aspiring man,
Making Ills home an earthly paradise,
Rich in all Joys allotted to LIES span
Twining round each fibre Of his heart
with all tile gentle influence Of loves might
Seeking no Joy where he has no part.
This is undoubtedly woman's right
Il Is her right to teach the infant mind,
Training It ever upward In It's course
To root out evil passions that would blnd
The upward current ofhs reason's iorce
TO lead the erring spirit gently back
when II has sunk In gloom oi deepest hehti
To point the shining path Of viriue's track,
And urge lin forward. This is womans nght'
Il is her right To soothe the couch OF pain
These her pure missions upon earth TO prove
To calm with gentle care the irenzird hrlini
And keep her vigil there Of holiest love
To watch untiringly by the lonely bed,
Through the bright day and in the soleinnn night'
Till health ensues, or the loved form /. ltid
70 rest forever. This is woman's right
She Is a flower that blossoms best unseen,
Sheltered within the precincts OF her home
There, no dark ming st0rn.cioud shonld intervene,
There the loud strife @ worldlings never COME
Let her not scoin t0 act a woMAe's part
Nor strive to cope with manhood in us might
But lay this maxim closely to her heart
That that which God ciglains is surely right.

WASHINGTON, October 2G. The following
details have been received in Washington
of the convention ol colored men at Column
bia, s. O.. which has adjourned sine die,
October 24th. The committee on emigra-
tion reported that the South holds out the
greatest advantages to the colOred peo-
ple of the whole country for settlement
Among other reasons, the colored people
are already the bone and sinew of the South
and they possess more numerical strength In
the Southern than in the Northern States.
The committee on civil right reported as
there were doubts as to the civil rights bill
comforting equal privileges and immunities
upon citizens, they respectfully recommend
that Congress be earnestly pettioned to
enact the supplementary civil rights bill IN
troduced into the United States Senate by
Senator Sumner, as there can be no doubt
of the justice Of such law, and prejudiced
iudges and Jurors cannot then render a yer.

ed TO him, and shall take such lawful stepI
as in his Judgment may seem best to accom-
nlish the objects of the organization, ant
draw upon the State president for such mo-
news as may be necessary TO work out the
objects of the organization. The committee
on education reported a review Of the whol
subject, demanding the consideration (
equality, free schools, etc, and recommend
ing resolutions relative thereto, setting fort
that no separate plan was necessary for al
one State, but that universal system mu
be established for all grades.

Ordination az the Central Baptisi

The ordination of Mr.. Percy L. Mitch
ell took place last night at the Central
Baptist Church, and was witnessed by
one Of the largest congregations ever
assembled at any Of our churches The
opening services were conducted by
Rev! Dr.. Landrnm. Rev. W. Keep gave
the charge, DIR. Tichnor offered the or
daining prayer, which was solemn and
impressiyei after which the pastor of the
church presented Mr.. Mitchell with a
beautiful Bible, the gift of the congrega-
ton, and welcomed, by the hand of
fellowship, the candidate into the ranks
Of the ministry,
Rev. P. l.. Mitchell is not ordained to
the work Of any special church, but has
been called by the church Of which he is
a member in recognition Of his evident
ability to be a minister. As a student
Of the Dublin University he ranks high
as scholar, and will reflect the highest
credit upon the Church in which he has
been ordained a minister. We predict
for Mr.. Mitchell brilliant career as q
learned and eloquent pastor, over what
ever charge he may be called upon to
preside. T, fifff#IUtR.

| PUBLIC LEDGER OFPIOE,
MANPH1s. TENN. December II. ISL.
The money market during the weel
has undergone no material change. Thu
demand for accommodations is light anC
money easy at 10 to u per cent.
Exchange has been making rather
slowly, and to-day offerings are light
the demand, however, has been fairly
active. Rates remain steady at ! to &c
discount buying on cotton bills, and iC
discount selling on Eastern checks.
Gold has been lower during the week,
and at one time went to 1893 in New
York, but at the close Of the week again
advanced to llOt; to-day the selling rate
is l09s and buying rates here l09!
Local securities have been more &C.
tive and the excitement in shares Of the
Memphis and Charleston railroad, caused
by lease of that road for a term Of
years by Thomas Scott, in consequence
Of which the market value of the stock
advanced from &c to SIC and to 45c, with
some holders asking as high as soc; to-
day $4,000 is on the market at the lat
ter price, and might be had at a fraction
below. Some excitement has been
caused in Little Rock railroad share,
owing to the fact that the same parties
had leased that also and as a conse-
quence that stock is in demand, and
$40, 900 can be sold to-day at lie. Not
withstanding the rumor that large
amounts were upon the street Saturday
at Toe, the probabilities are that it will
go higher, as it is rumored that
Colonel Scott, the railroad king,
will arrive in Nashville to-day, and
come to Memphis this week to con-
clude the arrangement for the transfer
of the road. Arkansas levee bonds have
been steady at 25c until to-day, when
there was $4,000 upon the market,
upon which no bid could be obtained.
A telegram from Little Rock published
that a prominent bank of St. Louis had
instituted proceedings at Little Rock
against the Auditor Of the State of Ar
kansas and the Commissioner Of Public
Works to compel the issue of eighty-fve
thousand levee bonds, which the State
claims to have been heretofore delivered
on duplicate order obtained by the late
Colonel HAymaker, BY fraudulent repre-
sensations, has had the effect to depress
the market Mississippi warrants and
Alcorn money are in improved demand
to-day. and are sold at s5c for auditors
warrants and SOC for Alcorn money. City
securities are advancing rapidly in this
market, and but few sellers can be
found; 5slc was offered last week for
$4,000 of the currency issue, 6Oc being
the rate asked. Gold bonds are held at
60 to &c.
