ItUFFIANLY STOUT A DOO-KIGTIT IN Our Mipsr. OnTui'sdaj afternoon, our city was d.'prnccit by a to:-tittht, Unit too:c pi tun at a do-nit in MoymneiirtltiK, kfPt 1V ft man naiii'ii I'ai ('arrrill. Th two doss, "Iko," ownivl by Mr. Arthur Henry, and 'Flail," oncd bv Thomas Tiifnmn, were pV.trtil ntriin-t oacli other for a side. K:icn doc, at the time of tho tipht, weitfticd 2(i lb. Early in the nf'ornoou a larpe ennt oursp of painhlt'r, doi-lichtfrH, jmtrilistx, and "pm'tintr. rncn of all di'scrlpuons nssi'.nbluii at tho rcn .!. vous. Ttie first to enter the arrna whlcn wm coniiOFcd of a circular space in the centre of the apartment, some ocvcu by live loot, enclosed by rouf;h boards, about two feet and a unit high, and around which were elevated seals amused for thf aecommodiition of the spectators wni John McMnuon, the handler of the dm Ike, whose appear nii'-c was irree'cl with applause by the motley asenihlae. Tlie (loir was a very handsome ppecinien of his breed, and Ins lonp, lean body, choit, powerful leg-i, full chest, and broad h"ad, with his lonp snout, armed with terrible teeth, which Glistened terociously as the clop enarlcd m the pit, pave evidence of immense strength and detcrnriined pluck. Hardly bail Ike and Jhis handler made 'their appearauce than the handler of FlnVi, with his pet, appeared iu ttiu rl!ir. The appearance of this dop wus scarcely tu erior to that of his 1111 taeonisi, with possibly tlie evception of his suoiter piw, which left the im predion ofhis ina bility to catch as powerful a hold as his op ponent, nud which became veriiicd u-i t'.ie on test propreord. Appronchinp each other, tho trainer of each btnt bent to the floor, and placlnp the dosrs within a foot, commenced strtkinp them and uttering expressions calcu lated to cxeiie the doirs. At a Liven sipnal from the pit keeper the dops were released, and Hew at each other with unconquerable fury. Ike, quicker tliun his antagonist, seized flash by the shoulder, and, rollinp over each other, they kioKod. bit. and veiled as though with tlie bplrn of hell. Time hemp called, the dom were separated, their wounds examined, and their bodies wahod of tho blood with which they were spotted: and, alter beinp carefully smelt of and lasted with the tonsriies of the fi.iincrs about the head and nock to iicceftaiii that no poisonous stuff had been placed upon tnem, tticy were released npam, and tuuin pursued their ferocious work until separated. Seven rounds were fouuli, and nltlioupli nearly ex hausted and M-ureolv capable of stun linp on their lepp, neither showed tho white leather, and tuoy were put to wovk atrum, when, by a fortunate SDap, Ike fnsteued bis lanes in tho throat of his opponent, and, with the determination oi death, coutiuued to hold on until Flash rolled over and over in the nponies of tlitwlutiou. Although nearly dead himself, such was the determina tion of tlie victorious brute that tho handlars bad treat diflieulty in looseninp his crip iinou the Ibroat of the dead (lop. The H tr lit occupied forty-ci'rht minuief, and durinir tho entiio time so riiiich were the spectators interested in the revolting spectacle that scarcely a word was spoken. The victorious dotr was wrapped in warm blankets bv his handler, and meaus adopted to restore his Yipor. Special Mebtino op Common Council. Com. it) on Council met in special session yejlerday. President Stokley presided. The meeting was called to consider appropriation bills. Tliere ure beiore Councils many regular appropr a'ions to ttie city deparimeuts unnoted upon. Even with the special meetings already held, the ye'ir will close beiore the annual budget ot Council busi ness is cleared away, unless the two Chambers work mure vigorously.

A post-mortem examination dis closed tlie fact that there were fcve stabs iu tlie abdomen, as if made with a chisel, and his skull was fractured. Tlie collar bone on the lelt Hde was broken, and two ribs were stove in. All of these injuries, except ihe stabs, were, it is Ik lieve d, caused by falling heavily ou the pavement, niul the stab's were thought to have been inflicted by himself.

The Mas Meeting of Colored Men. Last evening, a number of the colored men of cur city assembled in mass meeting at the new Liberty Hull, Lombard street, below Eighth, for the purpose ot selecting delegates to repre sent them in the National Convention, to be h;ld in Washington, January Hi, 1SG7. A temporary organization was ell'ected, and a comuiittte ot three were appointed to select olhcers for the meeting. Duriup the absence ot the Committee, Mr. Uasseit explained tbe ob jects ot the nieetnip, which have been set forth above. Dr. Council was then introduced, and spoke as follows: Mr. 1'iesident: I came here this evening in rcsnouse to the call iu tha pupers. I hoped to' lina the hall filled to overflowing, but ray hopes have only been partly realized. I think the steps you are taking are decidedly right right in ail the relations that right bears to the rights of num. Nor do 1 think that, under the present circumstances, there is aught iu the world to discourage you iu the eilorts that you are making. Everything, on the other hand, is encouraging. I deem it, sir, that the present is God's own time for the accomplishment of the great object of re-establishing the colored. men of our State and country 111 their legal rights. Thoy know, tis well us I do, that the colored men of our laud have been lobbed of their rights. They now simply ask to have thorn restored. For the first time iu the history of our national ex istence, Massachusetts, that good old State, who bus always been true to freedom aud the right, admitted into her lulls of legislation, by the ballot, two colored representatives. (Ap plause.) In the District of Columbia, within a very short time probably tho next election at all events colored men long resident there, iu tbe very mart of chattclim in the past will be admitted by act ot Congress io the right of fran chise. What Massachusetts has done, Congress is doing in the District of Columbia. The prejudices that remaiu iu ihe minds o! some portions of our coiutiiiiuiticM will certainly bo broken dowu, as it is true that truth will always overcome error. (Applause.) I cannot understand why a reeoeetable, educated, intel ligent, .noral, and religious colored man, who pays national, State, and munu-iiiil taxes, iiU$ not au inherent right to the franchise. He is vastly supciior iu position 10 tho man who emigrates from a foreign land, and who is tlie oru toe to freedom and the right, aud who cannot read the ballot put into his hands, aim who always votes ugaiust the rights ot liberty. I say 1 cannot uuuirstand why these men are pennitted to exercise the elective frauchise, ami the loyal black mau, who fought lor his coun try's ting, u denied it. Political parties nre desirous ol sacurlna these toreion votes. Men are not. landed upon our hhotes Svtveu weeks, before tho ballot is, bv surreptitious means, put into their hands; while those bom and educated upon the ..oil ot Pennsylvania aie compelled to stan-i behind these white emigrants on tho day of election. (Hear! hear!) It was a great doctrine Hint Friiuce announced, but she didn't understand it to be a universal doctrine liberty, equality, and iraJernity. She meant, when she made thii' iiuuouncemi-iit, liberty for the privileged, equality lor the wealthy, and frat:ruity for those who could shake hands with Mammon. We uudersi and that word "lib-.-rty" to iuon liberty to every mun, liberty everywhere, liberty id mind, liberty of tbe conscience, aud liberty of tics to extend through tbe length and breadih ot the land. The word equality U not merely a woid ot sound or ot tinsel, but is what it nivalis iu its natural acceptation. Fraternity exoresscs a true brotherhood of feeling, that one G id, one Futber, 0110 Redeemer has made us brothers, to take each otherjby the hand, and be brothers in truth and in fact. We are to extend these thrco words to the colored man, and with shoulder to t houlder, heart to heart, and band to hand, you are certain, in my opinion, and 1 that, too, In a very shmt period of time, to attain the objects lor which this meeting has 1 1 11 1 .... . 1 1 1 . . .1 1 1 vi 111 cRiicu me re-rsiaonsumeni 01 tin; coioreu men of our city in their political tights. The Committee having returned during th course ol the gentleman' remarks, then reported the following as otiicers of the mooting: President laiab C. Ware. Vice-Presidents IJev. Kli.-ha Weaver. William Wipper, ltev. Stephen Smith, William Mill. Secretary Joseph C. Ilustell. It was llien announced that a petition to Con-B1C--S had born prepnrcd for tho purpo.-je of in qui) hip as to the claims of the colored citizens to the rioht ot the elective tranehie, ami had been signed by numerous persons, but there were a low places lelt on the paper tor names jet, and It was hoped those present would come forward and put their signatures to it. The President then addressed tho mooting as follows: I adies and Gentlemen The gentle man who addressed ou a moment nco stated that when be came into this house he expected to lind a larger number of people here than he did tind. I did myself; but, 1 am glad to see the kind ot iiicn here thot nre here, and I am sntis lled it they do not now, thoy will fully under stand the purposes ot this meeting by the reso lutions which arc to be offered. The enterprise which we have now on hand is one which, lor the first time in the history of our nation and of our people, has been ottered tons; and it is one which, if we do not avail ourselves of, will not only be a lusting di-pracc to us, but to our chi.dreu. Jf wc strike this iron while it is hot we will succeed. Tho nation's I curt is now fined, waiting to be moulded into the shr.pe that is desirible. If there is one thing irue more than nnotlie'-, it is that the American people havii to-day one sixih of their whole population living in the'.' midst without being acquainted with them; and it there is anything more important for us to do than another, it is for us to place ourselves in a position where wc may mukc tl-.cni acquainted with us, nud the holding of 11 national conven tion is the most teasihlo method. And whether that national convention shall correctly ai.d luirlv ropiesent our people depends upon the citizens ot Philadelphia at least, a part o them. A population of over twenty thousand people should not allow themselves to go unrepre sented in a convention 11s important us tlie one iliat has lornied, or is just beginning to form. We must keep ourselves before the world, that, they may understand what wc meat. that we do not mean to take anything clFe than what i right lor man, without regard to bis intellect or his wealth, but solely on the score of his ninu Leod. (Applause.) Mr. Uassctt then stated, by way of preliminary remark, th.it at the time the hist Convention was called, in 18t!4, to liwt at Syracuse, New York, he led made but little effort to send dele gates to represent Philadelphia, but iu the pre sent case he had done all in hi power to secure n pood attendance at this meeting to elect dele gates. He bait circulated notic'js throughout the dillcrent churches last Sunday, but sup posed, owing to the Inclemency ot the weather, they had not been announced. Ho then sub mitted the following resolutions, which were, 011 motion, adopted separately: Wht nan, A call has been issued by th National Kqual Ktghrs League, inviting the colored men of the nation to assemble by dele gates in Washington cily, D. C, on Thursday, January 10, 1MG7; uud ll'iereas. It seems desirableon many accounts that we, tbe colored citizens of Philadelphia, should not be unrepresented in a convention at which the colored men of the nation are ex pected to be present; therefore be it Acsvtved, That at a time when brutal out- I rages on civil and personal liberty, murders and untold villanies ure daily and hourly per petrated by unrepentant KebPls aud peritired traitoisupon the loyal and patriotic people of the South, to such -an extent as to bo made the subject of two special commissions of inquiry by Congress within a session of two weeks; while the Con.-titutionul Amendment abolishing slavery is nullified, men being bought and sold at public sale throughout the South to-day: while the Civil Eights bill is scolfcd at ana hissed; w hile, indeed, here inotirmidsr, men who helped to light the battles of tlie country are insolently denied the right to ride in our city cars a right almost as clear and indisputable as the right to walk the highway; while, in a word, thcie is a strong disposition to please, pacify, and pander to the men who sought to ruin the country by lerrlble rebellion, who deluged our land with rivers of tears and blood, who murdered, maimed, and starved to death iu Southern prisons the brave sons of the North, and at. the same time a purpose to ignore the republican principle by denying to fo'ir 1 millions oi industrious, brave, and patriotic people born, on the soil, the full meed of Ameri can citizenship. it is meet that the colored men of tbe nation should come together to con- ; suit and devise means lor action in their own ; behalf. licsotted, That, although partly ou account 6; ! some delects in its organization, and partly from ; lack of support at the hands of the p?oplo, tue ' ljeiigiie nas nuieti 10 accomplish its hish mis sion; yet we gla lly hail its timely call for a Con vention of tlie people, and we will cheerfully do ovr part towards securing a eood aud lull attendance at the Convention, to the end that the men of all sections may compare views may state in their own chosen way their erievauces aud their claims; and that tho League itself may be rejuvenated by a fresh baptism iu the hearts of the people, or super seded by either organizations, or abolished altogether, as the people may judge be' adapted to carry forward to realization the pood work begun. Jiesoir.ed. That a committee of three be ap pointed by the Chuiiman to nominate, delegates to the Convention. A committee of three was thou appoin'ed. While they were conferring together, Mr. Pur nell spoke as follows: Mr. Chairman and fellow citizens, I must confess, that if 1 am not in ihe situation of my liehtiug friend ou the left (re ferring io Lieutenant Srevens, who bad been requested to make a speech, but declined). 1 am certainly in the position of the man sud denly called on in a crowd to deliver a speeco. who, being totally uaprepared lor such an effort, taiil "that he would hold anybody's hat that would take his place." (Laughter.) What I have to say ou the present occasion I do not suppose will bear auy weight, or shod any light ou the purposes and objects of Hu mecting. There are men here who are older aud wiser, and who are abler nud more capabl" n:' shedding light on political matters, at the pre sent day, than myself. I have not ot late nied died with matters of this kind but I wiil sav that theie is not a single individual iu this co'u munlty who leels n deeper interest in the groa purposes and the public demonstrations no v going em in thi country, thou tlie humble indi vidual whom you have called ou to address yo 1. (Applause.) All mcu In this community, or throughout the wide expanse of the country, who bear the impress of Irecmen on their countenances, must and ought to feci a deep interest iu tu political situation of their clas. (Applause.) There was a day in the past when I lea red tha tbe political elevation of tho colored race was not to be in my or In my children's day, but J think God, for the preat light that breaks upon us, so hopeful and encouraging. (Aoplausc.) There is throughout this laud a deep and abiding interest in the welfare of tbe colored man, and it is on him now that of this community nay, more, the whole world have their eyes at tho present time. Therefore it i; for you to stand steadily, and secure tho single purpose the elevation ot your class. Do this, and you leave tho legacy, it voti leave no othei, that you have used your' best eilbrls 10 elevate yourselves to tho loved of tno class that you ure identified with in complexion uud con dition. (Applause.) The Pi evident then made a few remarks, a', tho conclusion of which the Committee reported the following as tho delegates selected: Ilev. Stephen Smith, Isaiah C. Ware, L?q., James R. Gordon, Ksq., Theodore D. Miller, Ksq., Key. Klisha Weaver, Lieutenant George L Mevens, William Still, Esq., John C. Mowers, Lsq., Rev. Francis p. Moine.K. D. Masett, Ksq., W illiam Wipper, Esq.
