CITY INTELLIGENCE For AddUional Local Mans tee Third Page. Plastkbeim' Convention. A meeting t the National;Conventionof flasterers was hold In this city on Thursday, 12ih Inst., Charles MoLean, of Boston, In the chair, wncn, after the reading of the minute of last meeting, Mr. MoLoan deliver d the following addresat Uontemen : Since we last met in our deliberative ri0DT eJm,on 'he condition 01 tne laoorliig classes, ihoir duties and responsibilities, the relauve con nection ot the employers and capitalist therewith, umuo" derosaed my attention, the result or which has been that serious laults and hindrancos ate fostered and engendered by bo to parties The workingman, on the one hand, by lashness In tiie advocacy ol just c aims, without affording sullioient time lor red cfon or pieparaton. tlurried counsel, wllhoat calm thought and deliberate action, even in local organization, sometimes precipitates strikes, and inrolves the whole working o immunity in the contest;, whereas, a proper appeal turoura the press, or other method ot communication, property slated, v ould go tar to oonviuoo the iiublio that our claims were founded i i Justioe. causing the capitalists to oede, both tor their interests and ours, higher re murerative piicee.and less hour In wninhtoearn those auvanced ra.es, lor it is apparent from pat experience that cool and combined action is nooe sary in many respects; and in order to repair and rectily past mistakes, unite all the Tailed interests of the wo. king classes, educate tnom to drink from a higher and holier son roe ot knowledge sentiments less selfish than hitherto; Imbue their minds witn a better conception ot their destiny; iet them fa ly understand the true interpretailon of tno tio'den Kule, the meum and tuum of sooiety; and thus, in the plectltudo and grandeur ot tota his physical and mental power, the producer ot all weaith will assuredly be best able to determine how to oispo-e ot it. btr ke rash y ot tered upon are productive ot eril to al concerned. Let the laboring clasres be united not to assail, but to pioteot. Lot htm be prepared for emergencies a med with moneyed and moral power, taking ihe advico of "1'olonlus," not be readiest o quarrel, but once engaged, so con duct theraselyes that capital will hesila.e and rellect before engaging in a s cond contest By what principle of justice, on the other hand, does capital array it sell against l'S creat ir and pro tector, especially when emergencies have ar.sen in the country requiting higher prices brought about, nut by the laboiingman, but bvtneevii usosto which capital was pros rated by the purchase ot the laborer liimselt and not bis labor. This antagonis'io condi. tion ot tilings, contrBry to all the principles of equity, brought on and cherishod in one section of onr coun try, involved ns in war, and at its close iound us with an enormous national debt to disburse, more assoa-ora and other smeoure officers' salaries t ban are neces sary, as stilt lurthor incubus to support, legislators imposing taxes wuo aro mere trros in the know ledge ot properly proportioning tuem. National bonds exempted and held by tho rich, whilst the neceesar.ee ot life are burdened to the straining point, and yet 'tisacoounted sacriiee to complain or even request higher pi iocs for labor, morejespecmlly it combined tot that pni-pose Kow gentlemen,! I contend that non-pata labor, which hat brought about this condition ot tilings, will ultimately bring about a worse, li the claims of ill-requited labor are to pass unheeded if, as in "Frankonsteln." the oreatuie attempts to become too powerful lor its creator, then it becomes the duty of every man existing to con Hue and limit its power. The tyranny inflicted by twoot the taree daises of society In Fr j nee (the moneyed two) upon the third estate brought about the revolution. The foundations nponwhica the labrios ot Christianity stood were assailed by atheists of their own creation, for men reasoned It-at the truo i d could not iufliot nor tolerate snch wrongs as the clergy taught and im posed. The other, the nobility, so-cailed, imperious by birth and education, spurned unheeded the peti tions of the working causes, destroyed faith in monarchical institutions, and, drunk with madness at those two clauses, retaliated with fearful retribution tor past injuries. But whilst we deplore that the claims of certain classes of our countrymen to obtain shorter hours of labor havo not been granted in another section of ihe country, but retarded, and the capital and wealth of still another section arrayed against the caulkers ot Boston to force them to submit to the conditions of the iirst onus for having expressed sympathy for their fellow craftsmen in few York in their hour of trial. We depreoate both tyrannies, but especially the last, as they committed no act but the abave and should be supported by every workingman iu the country. or what purpose do our State governments expend such vast sums for educatiou, to teach a boy the theory of demonstrating a problem in Euclid, and then send nim to a trade, where hia physical owors are piosrratcd by too long nonrs of labor f a what condition is bis mind at the end ot each overstrained day's toll to grap.ile with and do ve.ope the hidden mysteries of chemstry, or to invent and bring to tiractcal use tnose school taught theories. Big mental and physical powers, jaded and oppressed, render him unfit, amid the inexbanst ble reouroes ot this groat country, yet almost unknown, and their applioaiion obtcure. Mow, gentierm-u, it the dull ear of power (power created by you) would but listen to reason, and take an unselfish view ot this matter, be i ore it Is too late, let tbem reason and compromise. 1 he workingman Is la-t rising to a higlior civilization, by which he already begins to perceive that in a better conditioned state of society, towards which he is test (tending, viz , labor, its hours, its remu neration, etc, will at all tim s check itself, nor re quire one led for nor unwarranted dictation from capital. I sincerely trust that the more epeclal purpose for whicn we are here oonvened, however, viz: , to take into calm consideration the peculiar requirements of our own special calling, the mu ual benefits to be derived by any alterations or amendments neoes eary, the upholding and expounding of general heal-hy laws, by wbioh alt classes shall be benefited, will meet with your careful and cousiderate atton tion, to that on rising from this Convention we shal ' noioonsiaer mat we naveaskea nut wnat lirigni ai d wan the help ot God and a clear consoleuce will subnet to nothing that is wrong. Among other things, the adopt.on and fostering of which would I think be of incalculable benefit to the working classes, would be, first, to O'uromze no paoers which opeuly doi ounce us, who pamper to wea th, who allure the workingman by sophistry from that alle giance to wheiebistiue interests lay, whe offer no astittauce, by that mlnty power they wield, to ra'se and iterate the working classes o that em neuoe toward which he is fast journeying, viz.. a oearer and mere comprehensive idea of the duties and re sponsibilities ot his calling. ' We wai t a pi ess that will honestly and conscien tiously advooate the true interests of labor, and point out the remedv for detects, and hinder en croachments. It becomes the duty, tbereiore, of every workingman to patronize none others ; and it the editors thereof won d make their sheets gue raily entertaining to the workingman.and Ipstructive to bis children, I think tliev won d be more liberally patronized. I would like vise sugaet that by con certed action wi n o her bodies ot ruechauics intel ligent lecturers m'ght be emp.oyed to deliver ad dresses throughout ibe Un on on the beat mode of hlncing in one tatmlv the various classes of working men tbat labor might not become too great a sacri fice tounpnnoip ed num. Another tvil which wo ought toavoiil, and which will do iound to exist in our local societies, is the petty jealousies and bicker ns upon minor points, when by a little lorbearanco they could be easily 'overcome. 1 here is likew.se a gieat lack of dis ' crimination on oar part in not recommending tho appointment of a National Board of Trade for the regulation of labor, aua ull its interests. I submit that this Board shall consist or eqnal nnnbers of woikmgmen and etoolryrs, to bold periodical meetings, as necessity may r quire. It might be ap pointed by legislative enaotmeut or by thenwulves, and be rodctire of vast good, thus avo ding all pernicious collisions which Disturb and injure our Lest interests. Jn conclusion, gentlemen, pe-init me to again slo. cerelytbank you lor tnnt lorl.eatauce which vou have always extended towards me, and trustmg that oureflbita may uiiimateiT b crowned with Buooeis that the employers and capita ls of the oountry may become oonvinoed fiat neither we l-naid laoor, nor more moderate nonrs to perioral thai labor in. would ultimate y injure their interests no much as tiier now autioiuate. t ut conduce to the moat ami cable settlement ot aU d fflcuities and the promotion ol tno Dent lutcre oi au oonoerneu. BKFOATOVTna COMMITTEE ON THE STATE OF THK TKA DB The Committee on the State of the Trade, to whom was referred the several renorti of the societies represented in this Union, beg leave to report that it carefully examined and oonsMered tuem Tour Committee is high v gratified at the many and bene ficent results obtained, and the prospect there is of yet better ana more promame good Doing aooom vl,hnri . The suggestions put forth by last Convention have keen generally earned out by the societies, and thus many abuses nave i been corrected, and innovations nn inn eimtoms and usages ol the trade, which were ot long standing, have been a'most completely re moved. Thus Is wiineesm we puwur oi consonaa'ea action when direoted by a spirit ot lairness and ina! it u nnrtam ever to meet with success.

We are kind to i ote that apprenticing is last set tlli g Itself, becommg at last STtomatized and in practical working oid'T in many cities. The man nror com Itlon on which to permit a youth to loarn a trade is ever important, lor good, akii ed mechanic wit at tim s be a necessity to every com munity. The simplest and readiest system to gov rn at prentices, and which wouM commend Itself to public avor, is to require ol every per-on desiring to learn the t; a 'e or the art ot plas eiing, as a first O' ndit on, that he he trra ly u d ;ntured. This simple cone itlon, aireadv enforced in some cities, ban proved its efllcacv to check the wholesa e manufacture ot balf-skil ed workmen that hitherto prevailed. There is n.ithing nnjust or unreasona ble in the demand that anprentices be indentured, It is proteetion to the youth indentured it secures to the msster t o servioes of the apprenticed youth. It checks undue and un'air compe tition amongst journeymen, as it tends to limit the increase ot their numbers to iho just requirements of the wants of society. It develops a superior mechnmcal skil, in which our oountry will not be second to that ot any other nation. And it will aid In forcing back to rne agr cultural, mining, and manufacturing districts the surplus population that centres around tho meohanloal branches to large oitis, and in this result it will be readily seen how mnch the oountry would beoome enr ohed, and the wel -being and hf ppiness of all oonoerned increased. Another evil had hitherto prevailed ; bnt is happily being almost, If not completely, lemoved. Keier ence Is here made to "lumping", or the system of sub-contracting, which Is more injury to tue ownors ot bouses than, perhaps, to any others. It is true tl ere are trades that could not be conducted oaauy other than tbe piocc-work system. It lit it 1b evident it woud be the ruin ol the plas terms' tiade. Yonr coinmittoe, thorotoro, would urge tbe n most opposition to it, and that no lawful means would be left untried to totally destroy it. 1 be Committee would also reoommond that all con tacts lor plastering bo made directly with the owners of houses, and no. taxen at second-hand rater from ''master" masons, or "mas.er" carpenter builders. As remarked by the New York delegation, it is more to the interest of tho owner that he take esti mates directly from those whose skill is called on to execute it, as in the end the work wou'd bo bettor and more substantially executed, iho 'master" mason or ' mastei" carpenter builder who sublets the p catering to a boss piasterer retains a per cent age of its value. What entitles blm to this per cent ugoT Is it tbe privilege of subletting? All profits rightly belong to those who perform the labor, and if p asterers do not get their Just pro fits, but these be arbitrarily absoroed from them by middlemen, they will recover tbem by other means; cheap material and Interior wo kmanshio will be the nsult, to the great loss of tbe owner. Yonr com mittte would urge ail plasterers to lose no opportu nity in calling attention to tbe injury and lujustioi that am the results of tolerating and lostoriug this "middleman" agent. Your C'ommitteo is gratified to note the genoral eare taken by our ocieties to avoid tho trying a ter nativo of ' strikes," at the same t mo accomplishing tbe beneficial results souclit for in strikes. Tne interests of tbe trade and the we 1-being of the members nave been secured and promoted as fiimly and as high as those who have indulged more fieelv in strikes. Let it not be understood, however, of your Committee, that it has any design to decry strikes absolutely and per $e, or tor a mo ment forget they have no usol'ut purposo. It decries only the abuse of them. It is remaraab'e, however, in the history ot strikes, that the worst and most un conscionable strikers are tho-e who condemn and decry tbem mos. Ibis is particularly notlceab e now-a-davs wii,h manufacturers, woo -growers, etc., who, by high protective tariffs, strike against to consumers of the country. '1 his high tariff "strUe" is the most unjust, aousrve, and mischievous s'rike of any ' combination" that ever existed, and de serves tbe condemnation and opposition of all. The muddle 10 whion the eight hour question, as it is called, is mixed, makes it difficult to consider- by some, it being remarried as a auestion tor the civil law to adjust Yonr Committee, however, re gard it as a purely too al aues'ion. within the jurisd'etion or authority ot each branch or society oi inDor, ana mat it snonia not do dragged in the miie of party politics Whi e regarding it as a mat ter for each local society to de'eimine, your Coin mi i tee therefore deem it unwise that any immediate action be taken on it. Your Committee leel satisfied that it will rettle itself when the abuses above referred to beoome completely eradicated. In tne meanwhile let errors in wbion tbe eight-hour movement is shrouded be cleared away. Above all, let us be patient. I he time for neopting the eiaht-honr system has not yet arrived. we are ueanng last to it, ana it we continue on in the lutnre as we have in tbe past, yonr Commit'ee predict tbe Plasterers will be the first to apply tho eight-hour system. i baulkb mcjuKAn, isoston jAMkS U.
