The " National Suffrage COMMITTEES" under
call beaded by Lueretia Mott, Elizabeth Csdy
stanton, Susan b. Anthony, Victoria @. Wood
hull and Others or prominence In the woman's
suffrage movement are holding d convention
to-day at Lincoln Hall. The main object Of the
convention, 1t seems, il to secure the passage OF
. declaratory act enabling women to vote; their
right to do so ~ citizens having been secured
by the 18th and 18th amendments 10 the consti.
tuition. But they do not propose to confns
themselves to the discussion of suffrage per &c.
and Mrs Woodruff, for instance, to-day
made an argument in behalf of SprituaIism
III, rs she claims, she speaks under the inspira-
ton Of Demosthenes, We have only to say that
the Athenian orator has been greatly over
rated. As speakers, Mrs. Stanton and Susan B.
Anthony, who talk on their own hook, without
inspiration from Athens or Rome, beat her ali
to bits But perhaps Demosthenes has not
yet reached town, or Is affected by the pre-
vailing influenza, and will come out strong
ria Mrs. w. before the convention closes
However, she was very heartily applauded
by her hearers; not probably a. An endorsement
other peculiar theories on love and marriage, but
in recognition Of the undoubted fact thatshe has
done more by her really capable pen and force
Of purpose in advancing the enfrsnchisement
movement than perhaps any other individual.

women could claim the right Of suffrage
under the 18th and 18th amendments; and
she has pushed the proposition with such force
and point as to compel our jurists to virtually
concede the point, though holding that while
under these amendments women are eligible to
be voters, they need declaratory legislation from
Congress to make that capability available.
The audience at Lincoln Hall to-day was
large and of undoubted respectability, ind-
eating that the suffrage movement Is BY no
means waning, or losing its momentum.

this position Of the World is borne cut
t. stubborn facts. For instance, oficial
raur.s from Pennsy lgania, except the
county Of Mexican, estimated, makes
Grants majority 1851. Notwithstand-
ing this immense majority, Grant generally

Disastrous fires are mere liable to occur
at the beginning ofeold weather in autumn
than at any other season of the year. In
cities, thousands are not prepared with safe
chimneys, fues, stoves and pipes, to avoid
accidents By FIRE; while carelessness is the
rule of human action. If csTeless people
confined their CONGREGATIONS to property be-
longing to themselves, the injury would be
much less than is now witnessed. But
while every mans property is liable to de-
struction by fire, there is no adequate su-
pervision of the fire and light arrangements
of the million, to prevent disaster. Better
buildings should be constructed hereafter,
if the authorities can not remove such as
are likely to start or spread a confagratien
at any hour. Old time brick houses covered
with slate, and not too close together,
stopped the great fire in Boston. Such
buildings have little TO burn on the outside.
Trade and business of all kinds should
not be so compressed and piled up one
story above another, thus concentrating the
maximum of combustibles on given area,
with the minimum of open space for ire
men to work in and extiDguish the intense
burning. Every room containing valuables
should be proof against me spreading Of
fire if ali its contents are burnt like wood
in an oven; then similar burning IN the
next room viii DO no harm to its contents.
Every man must use his property, heating
and lighting appliances, in such way as
not to harm others. This is a Just rule. A
departure from this principle gives every
one the privilege for a small private gain
to destroy property worth indefinite mil
lions which belongs 10 others. Such build
ing system is not less ruinous than absurd.
The public safety must be the supreme
law in practice as well as theory. Views
in this light, every domicile and business
house near others of a like character, must
Of necessity be fre,proof in fact, whatever
it is in name. Careless and stupid people
will burn their dwellings, shops and facto-
ries so long as they remain what they are.
But should thoughtful and sensible men
build so as to be burnt out by other psr-
sons folly or crime? This is not guarding
against fire, but inviting its desolation. In
surance companies tend somewhat in the
same direction. 1t is much easier to pre-
vent fire spreading in cities than is general
ly believed; only construct houses to forbid
the extension of fame and burning Goals,
instead of to favor such extension. 1t is
well known what will burn and what will
not

THE COLumRus COMPILATION

We published yesterday morning, in cur
telegrapbic columns, the proceedings of the
Liberal Republican aud Democratic con
sulta ion at Columbus, Ohio. As they have
an election in that State next spring it may
he well for them to begin to prepare for the
canvass, but IS 9 general rule it is too
early TO do anything burto wait. All sorts
Of expedienjs wiz lie proposed as remedies
for the evils which afIlict us, bus the sober
and the sensible will take lesson fom the
piio,, who, in the feTcast storm, keeps his
hand on the rudder and his eye
on TIE coHpass--tbey will keep
constantly in view and fxejly in grasp the
cardinal principles Of constitutional gov
erBmeut. Whether the name of the party
shall be changed is a matter of but little
importance, provided the correct doctrines
are still advocated. There are doubtless
those in every State Of The Union who
heartily approve Democratic principles and
who at the same timc, f ON former preju-
hA-No VI iiLS- LAAC ~ LlAtyAt avn pal
ty. So doubtless there are those who
would not stand Squarely Up to Democratic
principles if they did not bear the Demo
cratic name. Quite as much therefore
might be lost by change Of name as by
retaining the one we now have. But We
repeat, the doctrine is the great thing at
stake, not the name. Weoftho South went
into the Democratic party after Tire war
because it opposed The political prescription,
oppression and tyranny well named and
universally known as Radicalism. We
should have gone into the same party with
the same earnestness aGd al if it had been
called the Wing party, or the Opposition
party, or the Liberal party. Never mind the
name. Do not stop to quarrel CT squabbl3
about that. Keep up ths fight against the
