From the W Omane journal 49,
In . letter to Aaron n. Powell, Mr.. Julian
says of the Cine innasi Convention:
at is hy no means all want. The action
of the Convention at Cincinnati shows that
it will not fully meet the demands Of fhs
hour. It was clearly not prepared to c0nfrons
the first question iHvolving the disputed right
Of one-half the citiasns Of the Republic 10
voice in the Government which they are obi9sd
the uufriendly spirit manifested BY pH tion
Ct the Convention toward two representative
women, whose earnest AID resoluts demand
to be heard was denisd."
And Jet Mr.. Julian will 'co operate with The
Liberal Republican movement
=. If any political Convention had treated the
cllims Of the Negre. ~ the Cincinnati Con-
vention treated those Of women, Mr.. Julian
would have shaken OF the dust Of his feet
against it, without Q moments hesitation
We should have heard his indignant protest
Against such unworthy aetions and his solemn
sbeware' Of reformers who coin injustiss at
the outset.
/ In this case the rights, OF fifteen illions Of
disfsanshised women were eonesFnsd. The
honor. aud integrity Of the whole country
wers involved in the restoration of the ballot
70 Woman. Was this case who're adhsrsaes
to principle was less neces ssafy. than whom
the right of two million colored men 70 the
ballot was in question:
The principle Was the same in both cases.
The Cincinnati Convention was called In
| the name Of Reform. Its action 10 proof both
Of what is TO b expected OF it, and Of what
cannot be ever hoped for from It. r.
| There are dozen mon, and Mr.. Julian d
one Of them. whose influence on the politics
Of the country could induce the Republican
party to accept and carry Woman Sudi,gs
When these men will take AND HOLD The sams
attitude toward the woman question that they
did toward the slavery question, the best pei
Of all parties will gather 70 their STANDARD
just as they d id in the other case. The psin
ciple for the sake Of which they united woak
be their strength. For allies. they weul:
have the large army Of women which be-
been growing in number and power for I
quarter of century. They would bs invioci
bic; for
lie who strikes for freedom wsars
The armor OF the captivs's prayersi
And Nature prc6srs IN his cause
The strength Of Her eternal Laws.

would leave that party sltogsthsr, 90 10 PhHa

and trusted men, like Geo. +. H,ar and othses

the hour, Il would md friends on every haad
Those who are inside Of the work for No
man know that the public sentiment alrsed
