The InternatiomnIe.

The full name Of this organization 4
/" Tho International Working Mems A.
ISOLATION, and il principles and regula-
tions are neither secret nor unknown. n
originated az the time Of the Polish IN
surrcction Of 1868, and the first general
meeting was held in September, 1864.
II took place in London, at 1t. Martins
Hall, was attended by working men II
nearly every European country. and
was presided over by Prof. Edward
Spencer Reeslcy. II was soon after this
meeting that Dir. Karl Marx became the
leading spirit Of the association. The
first congress was held AZ Geneva IN
1866, when rules prepared by DIR. Marx
were adopted, and the association was
put in working order. Its object was
declared TO be. in general terms, ..to
afford 4 central medium Of communica-
tion and cooperation between working
mems societies existing in different
countries and aiming AT the same end.
viz: the protection and advancement
and complete emancipation Of the work
ing classes
This congress discussed the questions
Of the length Of the working day, Of jn-
venile labor, Of cooperative unions, and
Of a statistical inquiry into the condi-
ton Of the working classes, ia such
manner as to attract the attention Of
the European Governments. which gen
orally assumed attitudes Of hostility 70.
ward the association; but II grew and
flourished, and its progress was accom-
panied by notable strikes. In 1867 oc-
Cured the strike Of the bronze workers
OF Paris and the great strike Of the Lon.
don failors. The second congress was
held at Lausanne in 1867, and the third
al Brussels in 1868, the last named be-
ing the greatest success Of the associa-
ton. Thereafter and until the begin
ming Of the Franco-German war formi-
dable strikes occurred all over Europe.
Among these are named the cotton
spinners' strike at Rouen; the st.
Etienne affair, in which more than fifty
workingmen were killed BY the troops:
the strike at lie Creuzot; the monster
disturbance AZ Vienna. in which more
than 80. 900 men took part andwere dis
pcrsed by military force.
The fourth congress was held al Basic
in 1869, and an American delegate was
present. The fifth would have been held
in Paris in 1870, but was prevented by
the war, which put an end 70 the Inter
rationale for a time, and il was only
heard from in its defense Of the Paris
commune. Its downfall was completed
by the withdrawal Of DIR. Marx from the
association. Its theories were not aban-
doned, however. and local organizations
have been maintained, five years of ASSOC
citation having made the various
branches u tradcs-unions acquainted
with each other and capable Of sustain
ing themselves. The gist Of the theories
Of the Internationalists Is thus stated;
:. Wages paid labor must pass away, A.
serf labor and slave labor have passed
away, and must give place 70 associated
labor, which i 10 be developed 70 ma
tional dimensions and fostered by ma
tional means. No man has right 70
call any thing his own which he has not
produced BIZ his own labor The hos
iility Of these theories 70 society a. Al
present organized does not need - be
enlarged upon. So. Louis T0es.
