WOMAN's WAuMG.

The Feminine Convention at Washing
ton-Equal Suffrage Demanded OF Com
gross for the District OF Columbia and
the Territories.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 15 1874.
The National Woman's Suffrage Association COM
menced its session here to-day at the Union League
Hall. There was large attendance OF auditors.
and on the platform were Miss Susan B. Anthony.
who presided; Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Mrs.
Matilda Jocelyn Gage, Mrs. Lille Devereaux Blake.
Mira. Bilva A. Lockwood, Mrs. Sarah }. Spencer and
DR.. Clemence s. L0zer.
Miss Anthony read the call for the Convention.
after which she invited any one to open with
prayer, but, no one volunteering. she continued
by saying:- prime object OF the association
was to obtain Congressional aid in
SECURING EQUAL RIGHTS;
that all they asked equal rights with the
colored men, who were the only class who had
been invested with such rights by special iegisla-
ton OF Congress. She read letter from Virginia
L. Miner OF St. Louis, who says that her slaughter
house suit Is now on the docket OF the Supreme
Court of the United States, and will be reached in
about year.
Various letters were read, intending those Of
Gerrtt Smith and Benjamin Y. Butler and express
sive Of their sympathy with the cause.
Miss Anthony tnen stated the creed Of the suf-
WOMAN SHOULD GET HER BALLOT
into the ballot box whenever she can find judge
of election that will receive 1t. Another was.
every woman who holds property on which tax II
assessed should refuse to pay 1t unless she be per-
United to vote.
Miss Anthony and others presented q petition
for signers which they propose laying before Con-
gress 1t sets forth that women have been denied
q hearing as to their political rights at the bar
OF the Senate and the House, they being entirely
unrepresented there in that they have no voice In
the choice OF members 70 either body although
constituting 0ne-hah the people OF the United
States recognized by the Declaration of Inde-
pendence and the constitution as the only source
OF power, and one-half Of the governed, whose

STILL SUBJECTED TO MANY WRONGS,

They pray the honorable bodies TO pass . law that
snail exempt women from taxation for national
purposes so long as they are unrepresented In the
national councils
Mrs. Sara J. Spencer was then introduced and
delivered an eloquent address on wOman's sun
rage, and particularly on the duty OF Congress to
give the women Of this District and the Territories
the right to vote by legislative enactment.
Mesdames Gage, Blake and Stanton severally
addressed the Convention In behalf OF the cause.

THE BLACK AND TAN REPUBLIC. friend
and ally, the noble Baez, who wanted to sell
out his rather shaky claim to the St. Domingo
dggings, has arrived in st. Thomas, hav-
ing parted from his Dominican friends in
rather happy manner. They are mercurial
people in the favored land of SANTANA, and like
q change, so they shipped poor Baez, who was
not clever enough to sell them out, though he
was rogue enough to desire to do so. The
pepper-and- salt colored inhabitants rather like
q rogue if he be clever; but Baez's faur pas
lost him in their estimation. He will now
have to apply to President Grant for situa-
ton. It is, perhaps fortunate that Cushing
withdrew from the Chief Justiceship. Presi-

Foreign Interests In Japan.

The Japanese government displays very
unyielding spirit in its diplomacy with the
great outside Powers on the subject of ex-
territorial or foreign jurisdiction within the
limits of the Empire. This position evidences
a native ministerialist disposition to neutral
ize, as far as may be possible with safety, the
working of the treaties concluded with the
great Christian governments. 1t is impos-
sible to maintain profitable commercial rela-
tons with Japan unless free and indepen-
dent power of ex-territorial legal rule is per-
mitted to the mercantile community, in the
ports OF the Empire particularly. Japanese
special mission is about to be despatched to
st. Petersburg. 1t may be that the personal in
clination of the Mikado tends towards Russia,
an incident which the Gar will not be slow to
avail himself of, provided it should
present The great Asiatic imperialisms
would be drawn closer in everyday interests,
and it may be that the Emperor Alexander
will attempt to rectify his territorial boun-
diaries and stand as a friendly mediator be-
tween the aged dynasties Of China and Japan.
Should he do SO disinterestedly, in the inter-
ests of civilization generally, it would be
well; but should he, on the contrary, attempt
the fruition Of any peculiarly selfish or ex-
elusive Russian policy he will find that the
work of regeneration in Asia is Of cosmopoli-
tan duty for the great Powers, including the
United States The japanese negotiations
with the Republic of Perm, for the extinguish-
ment of the coolie traffic, promise very i'm
portant results to the cause of humanity.

BRooxLYN FIRES. Brooklyn wants to be-
come AZ famous for its fires as for its churches.
No less than six fires occurred yesterday, caus-
ing loss estimated at one hundred thousand
dollars. Among the buildings attacked by
the devouring element was the prison. The
excitement among the prisoners was intense,
but, owing to the exertions of the Fire Depart
ment, 70 loss of life occurred. One man was
taken out of his cell unconscious, and several
other prisoners had a pretty narrow escape.
There seems to have been a reprehensible
hardness exhibited by the warden in letting
the prisoners in the cells endangered by the
fire out of their dangerous position. 1t would
be well if some rule were laid down for the
guidance of wardens in such cases. Where
the choice is between roasting prisoner to

The intransigentes have surrendered. and the
authority of the government is established in
that city. The next thing we expect to hear
is that the Carlists have abandoned their

Employment for tho Poor.
It is one of the beauties of our present sys-
tenn of government that while there is work
needed to be done and thousands willing to
work are starving for want of bread a squab-
BILE among Aldermen prevents any step
towards alternating widespread distress. We
publish elsewhere interviews with the Mayor
and Commissioner of Public Works, neither
of whom is willing to accept responsibility
for the failure to come to the aid of the suf-
fering and Industrious poor, but try to shift
the blame TO the shoulders Of the Common
Council. The Council, in turn, charge the
Mayor with obstructing their good inten-
tions. And so the unseemly squabble
goes on while the hungry people ask
for bread and work. The poor can
not starve. and the CITY must either
