H SAN AND TIIU KLDKHS-THKIR SPEKCJIES,
ETC., ETC.
The Conrt'ss of Lnbnr met histMoinl.iy at the
AfscdiIiIv l'uildinir to proceed to ImHuoks, but it
was not until Tuestliiy morning that they found
out
The Object of Tliclr Meeting,-
which then proved to be Miss Susan B. Anthony,
who at an early hour occupied and entrenched
herself on one of the front seats, by which stra
tegic position hhe was enabled to open an enfi
lading fire upon either the ollieers or the au
dience. Prior to the hour of ton o'clock in the morning,
the different members of the convention from
abroad were busily looking over the morning
papers to see if their names were in print in the
published proceedings of their first day's work.
Many were gratified to find not only their
name, but the place of their nativity, and, in
BOine instances, their stature and age, which was
a piece of popularity they had never enjoyed at
home. It is but justice to say, however, that the
latter particular of identity was not relished by
either Miss Martha M. Wal bridge, or Mrs.
Doctor Mary Walker, or the persevering Miss
Susan.
Punctually at the time the President called the
meeting to order, but the tap of bis mallet on
the desk had the same effect on Miss Susan as
when one taps a piano key, and immediately up
Jumps a little something to strike the corres
ponding chord within the instrument so, as the
chairman's mallet declared the meeting open,
up jumped little Susan to make a speech. The
Secretary said he would read the miuaU'S first,
vhlch must have seemed more like hours to
Susan.
Mr. Trevcllkk. of Michigan, said, before ac
cepting the minutes of the previous session, he
wanted the secretary to substitute the word
"president" in the place of "Mr. Lueker in the
chair," as that gentleman was the bona fide
president of the congress.
Susan said she would like to amend the mo
tion of Mr. Trevcllick the Mlcliigandcr by sub
stituting "chairist" for "president," as it did not
bo strongly suggest the male species. Not
agreed to.
Mr. West, of Mississippi, moved that Mr.
Moffctt's (of Tennessee) name be added to tho
Committee on Credentials.
Miss Susan wanted to know how the gentle
man from Mississippi stood on the Union (pies
tion. Coming from a State that begins with a
"Miss" is not sufficient for her. (Laughter.)
Many a thing that begins with a misx continues
o. She did not expect to spend her days 11
"Miss." (Cries of "joke!" "good!" and laugh
ter.) Susan was about continuing when she was
called to order.
Tho Secretary then announced the commit
tees. Miss Martha M. Wallbridge secured a
position on the Committee on Organization,
mainly through the etlorts of the irrepressiblo
Susan, who insisted that no organization could
prosper without a woinau.
Mr. Cavis, from the Committee on the Eight
liour law, made a report.
Miss Anthony wanted to know what part of
the twenty-four the eight hours were to be taken
from. A printer on a daily paper takes his Jin
the middle of the night. The women who set
type on the lieeolufion take their in the day.
No woman could sett up with a man eight hours
without being exhausted (laughter and cheers),
and she would move that the hours for night
work on newspapers be shortened, so that men
and women could sett up together in the same
olllce. (Cheers.) She could sett up with any
man and it would not tire her (applause), but
tho close composing-room was not tho proper
place for a woman to spend eight of tho best
hours of her life. She would therefore move
that men set all the type at night aud women in
the day.
Mr. Cavis wanted to know of Susan how much
time In the day it would take to "set a woman."
(Great laughter.)
Susan said the gentleman may think he is
very funny, but she would answer his question
hy saying that she meant that women should sett
all the type that is set in the day time; aud fur
thermore, the gentleman would find it a hard
job to set her down at any time of day. (Cries
t)f "Go in, Susan! ' ami cneers.;
At this last remark Mr. Cavis caved.
Mr. Field, of Michigan, offered tho follow
ing: Jiesoluetl, That the national money, known as
rreenback currency, is popular and satisfactory
to the working millions of the country here
Susan jumped up and declared it was not satis
factory to fifteen millions of tho citizens. Whut
true woman wants to fCel Mr. Chase's head, as
the phrenologists say, when sho goes to buy a
w nf calico or ribbon ? Not one of tho green-
tacks of any denomination has tho portrait of
the distiinruished women engraved upon u.
Heroes of tho war and heroes of the forum
occupy the public notice. Who was It that first
urged" the sending of supplies to Major Ander
son ? The women of New York. Who cheered
and encouraged, at the beginning of the war,
MMk?
V.
the nine uiontlis' bjvo ? (A voivv: "Tie nine
months' women." Great laughter and cheering,
during which Mies Anthony took her scat.)
Mr. Held now went on with his Iesolve1t,
touching all subjects except women. At tho
close of tho reading, Susan again took the floor,
nnd wanted to know if there was nothing to bo
said about women in the resolutions.
One of the members made the remark that the
women generally could speak for themselves.
(Laughter.)
Miss Anthony said It was well it was so. No
man ever spoke for her. (Cries of "joke," and
"good," and "that's so," w ith great cheering.)
Mies Anthony continued '"This may be fun for
the gentlemen, but It is no fun forme." (Ciies
of "good again. ") She was yesterday balloted
for by this convention as a delegate, and was re
fused; but It was not tho first time sho was re
fused, and should not be the last. (Applause.)
Mr. Walls, of Philadelphia, offered a resolu
tion to the effect that the action of tho conven
tion yesterday refusing to admit Miss Susan B.
Anthony as a delegate was not based on tho
lady's looks, but on the ground that she was not
u member of any working organization.
Mr. Walsh, of N. Y.. seconded the resolution,
nnd mid he himself had no objection to the
lady's looks, but had understood that she pub
lished a paper called
The Krvoliitinn, not up hy "Kills,"
nnd his regard for t'.ie public weal would not
allow him to associate with any one who em
ployed "rats" in any department.
Mr. I'uilt, of Indiana, moved to amend by
adding that Miss Susan B. Anthony be now ad
mitted as 11 member on the floor, lie did not
know what a "rat" was. lie did not come here
to (uarrcl with type-setters. They arc a small
fry in the great labor itiestion. In the great
West we don't care whether a man is called a
rat or a mouse, we must do right.
Miss Anthony here jumped up. and said she
must protest against her bringing looks into
the question. She did not travel on her looks.
She represented a labor organization, and looked
for the time when women would be paid the
same as men for the same work. The printers
on the Jit'vohtlioii wore not "rats." Women
were now rising in the scale of honorable em
ployments, and she hoped to see the time, by
the importation of C hinese, when men would
be glad to get situations as seamstresses, and
make shirts at fourteen cents apiece, or t do
housework and cooking at 'i-?iO a week, with
one afternoon out; and she believed
, n IP
The t'omiiiK Man
will be glad to take in family washes at forty
eight cents a dozen, counting two stockiugs for
a piece. (Cheers.)
Colonel K ume, of New lork, said that Mis
Anthony had not power at present to make any
speeches on this lloor. (Miss Anthony 1 I
have.")
The Chair said that Susan was an ex-delegate
from last year, aud had the right to speak.
At this, Susan made a rush for the platform.
Mr. Carr, of New York, protested, but Susan got
on the platform, saying that she was perfectly
docile in single harness, and was not afraid of
the Carrs. (Cries of "Good," and great cheer
ing.) Mr. Carr kept on shouting, "My protest is
this: That during the strike of the Typographi
cal Union No. ti Miss Anthony kept on climb
ing until she reached the platform, the height
of her ambition, when she commenced her
speech, completely throwing Carr off tho track.
Miss Anthony now explained her position. Sho
was here to advocate the interests of the work
ingwomen of New York. Sho agreed that it
was proper for men and women to he married,
but, at the same time, she believed, with Miss
Dickinson, that it was unhealthy for tho sexes
to sleep together. (Cries of "That's so !") She
ngrced that men, married, should support tho
women, but not that women should support
men. I perfectly agree that women should be
married, but you men do not do your duty.
(Laughter aud applause.) The fact is that the
majority of women have to support themselves.
Many a man has a wife who makes money by
her labor while he goes to the pot-house to sup
porter, when he ought to support her at home.
(Cries, of "Joke!" "good! and much cheer
ing.) And further, gentlemen, ho goes there in
the evening to liquor, and comes home in tho
night to lick her. (Cries of "Good again !"
"Go in, Susan!" aud great cheering.) We women
of this country, too many of us, have to support
ourselves at great odds. We ask for a change
(A voice "Here's a dollar"), aud we now cease
supplicating it we demand it.
"I thank you for this hearing. When f go
back to New York I will write all about this
meeting in tho lii'vululion, and I hope, gentle
men, you will all send me on your names, with
three dollars each; and you, Mr. Chairman, ac
company it with your photograph."
Miss Anthony now descended the platform,
aud
Left the Meeting
amid much applause.
After Susan left nothing transpired worth re

THE SEPTEMBER MAGAZINES.
"Mpplncott's.''' '
From the pnper by George Fitzhngh we
take the following Southern opinion about
"Land Monopoly:"
Land Monojwly is the sole parent of civili
zation, and land monopoly has boon universal,
in all ages, with the white and Chinese races,
and wholly unpractised by the uncivilized
races. Tho latter races are ineapablo of land
monopoly, and therefore can never have self
sustaining civilization. But we see around
us, every day, that they may have an exotic
civilization. Where a few whites have mo
nopolized the lands, tho landless whites and
landless negroes must practise tho arts of
civilized life or perish, for they can no longer
live, like brutes, on the voluntary fruits of
tho earth.
They have become tho sub jects of capital
(and nil capital results from land monopoly),
and they must fabricate the necessaries, com
forts, and luxuries of life for tho capitalists,
or be without homes or food or fuel or
clothes. In fabricating necessaries, comforts
and luxuries for the rich, they learn, and
continually practise, all tho arts of civilized
life. Property, or capital, hns ever been a
close monopoly among the civilized races, and
ever unknown, as au institution, among tho
other races. Any people who are capable of
land monopoly, and will practise it, will at
once becoino civilized.
Were it possible to divido lan Is
equally among all the whites, each man
would have to labor for his own sup
port: for there being no landless, no one
could command tho labor of others. Tho
consequence would bo, that nothing but tho
merest necessaries of life could be produced,
nnd tho whites thus circumstanced would
at once become deeivilized. Men never fubri
rate luxuries for themselves, but make them
for others to procure necessaries for them
selves. None but a madman would build a
lino house or make fine furniture or clothing
or equipage for his own use. Wore he to
attempt it, he would have no time left to
produce tho necessaries of life, and must
starve. If lands were equally divided, or if
lands were in common among tho whites,
civilization would polish. It is the domi
nion of capital over labor that begets, sus
tains, nnd advances civilization, werethoro
no inequalities of property, there could bo 110
civilization. There is no accumulated wealth,
no capital, no inequalities of property,
no land monopoly among tho uncivilized
races. Liberty (in its broadest sense)
mid social equality are en joyed by all. They
are all ignorant, halt-starved paupers. Place
them among whites, nnd subject them, like
poor whites, to the dominion of capital, and
they necessarily acquire civilization, but it is
in most instances a feeble, sickly, exotic civi
lization. They are contented beings, and
content dooms them to eternal ignorance aud
pauperism. A little coarse, common labor
will procure for them the merest necessaries
of life, and that is all they caro
or hope for. Not one in a thousand
will undergo tho labor of mind and body
requisito to make them good mechanics, or
artists, or scholars, or professional men. In
vested with equal political rights, as tho
negroes soon will be, a very few of them will
acquire property, become educated, and occu
py respectable social positions. The groat
mass of them will continue to bo a useful,
robust, and productivo laboring class much
bettor situated in nil respects, however, than
the negroes of Africa or tho Indians of
America.
The whites are ever dixroi, ten ted, rivalrous,
emulative, rapacious, ambitious, proud, provi
dent, selfish, jealous, aspiring, and accumu
lative. The most ambitious, powerful, and
rapacious from time immemorial have mono
polized the lands, and compelled, by virtue of
the dominion of land monopoly, the landless
to labor for them. Tho wages of tho laboring
classes have ever been proportioned to tho in
dustry, skill, and inventiveness exhibited by
each individual laborer; nnd this graduated
apportionment, acting upon tho moral quali
ties of tho whites, such as wo have just enume
rated, has stimulated them to untiring indus
try, skill, and inventiveness, and thus sus
tained a continually-improving and progress
ive civilization. The civilized races are de
cidedly unnmiable, and if they were not so
would cooso to be civilized. Yet we do not
think that man is endowed by Nature with
any evil moral qualities, provided such
qualities are not indulged in to excess.
Discontent is a virtue while it only serves
to make us moderately industrious, pro
vident, and accumulative; content becomes
a vice when it begets indolence and improvi
dence. The white becomes vicious and
criminal only when he indulges to excess
such passions and propensities as we have
mentionod, and this he is sure to do if not
restrained by law, public opinion, and (at
least) respect for the teachings of Christian
morality. Tho native African is by far the
most amiable of human beings when tho har
vest is just in and game abundant. As such,
Homer described him almost three
thousand years ago, aud as such is he
described by all the African travellers of
our day. Tho native Africans brought to this
country as slaves were simple, guileless,
affectionate, obedient, and industrious: their
descendants have contracted many of the
faults of the whites, without acquiring any
of their good qualities. But even now tho
negro is a much more amiable being than
the white man; and the great question to
be solved by tho friends of humanity is,
Can so amiable a being long live when
thrown into free competition with the
unamiable white man ? The negro is emi
nently contentedjUiiselfish, improvident, gene
rous, wasteful, unambitious, unaspiring
ready to divide tho little he may have with
the first comer, and hence incapable of ac
quiring, holding, or wielding capital or pro
perty. In line, all the uncivilized races
are, ever have been, and, left to
themselves, ever will bo, communists. Fri
vate property is an institution almost un
known among them, and equally unknown to
them are all other institutions of civilized
society. They have no laws, no courts, no
judges, no legislators, no executive officers; iu
line, no government, for their chiefs or kings
only lead them in war or on forays, and when
these are over all government "ceases. It is
force of nature,-not want of education, that
makes tho uncivilized races communists,
agrarians, paupers, and anarchists.
The question recurs, How will such
people get along when made the po
litical and legal equals of the whites, aud
thrown into free competition with thorn? Very
well, indeed, we think, in the South. In that
climate they are more efficient Bold hands
than the whites, can rent lands as cheaply as
the whites, and for much less than the whites
have to pay for them in rent elsewhere. As
common laborers they receive the same wages
as whites. Their wants are fewer and less
than those of the whites, for they care not for
fashion or appearances, end their earnings while
they work are equally great. They have worked
well in the section where I live, have plenty
of money, spend it profusely, live w&steiully,
and are sometimes, from sheer improvidence,
a little pinched for tho necessaries of life.
They are quite as respectful, kind, and oblig
ing as when they were our slaves. That
scarecrow, hostility of Tace, ceases to exist
when an inferior race, invested with equal
legal and political rights, is blended in one
common mass with a superior race. Society
soon subsides and stratifies; tho inferior being
becomes a contented laborer, and the superior
a kind of protecting employer. The white
laborer frets under his galling chains some
times, because he feels himself naturally tho
equal of his employer, but finds himself, in so
cial position, far beneath him. It will be the
fault of tho whites at tho South if we do not
have the most contented laborers to be found
in the world. Wo should cherish and protect
them, for we can get none other. White men
will not and should not come South to work
as hirelings beside negroes. Workinginon
from the North are fast settling among us, but
they come to tend their own fields, not to hiro
themselves out as farm-hands, by tho year or
by tho month. It is this immigration that
will soon restore tho South, if tho negroes
will but continue to perform their part as well
as they nre now performing it.
From a sketch of Dr. Pnrrish's "Sanitarium',
at Media, by Malcolm Maequeen, entitled "A
Week at an Aquarium," we quote tho follow
ing: While I am thus whirled along to tho Aqua
rium in tho society of its superintendent, lot
mo say a word about that institution, its ob
ject, and plan of working. Dr. Punish cer
tainly deserves well of the republic. He is
one of the few philanthropists I have met
who, adopting a certain theory, did not ap
pear to take leave of common souse, and en
deavor to twist all creation into a distorted
conformity with their own individual views.
Some yenrs ago, while ho was visiting 0110 of
tho hospitals at Homo, ho noticed several
epileptic patients strapped down in thoir beds,
simply to prevent their tumbling out: ho was
informed that they had been treated thus for
years, and that it was no uncommon occur
rence m tho hospital. Shocked at such wanton
cruelty.heset about obtainiugan interview with
Cardinal Antonelli, tho all-powerful Secretary
of State for tho Papal dominions. Tlis inter
view was at last granted: tho cardinal, who
received him rather coolly at first, perhaps
confounding him with that numerous crew of
curiosity-seekers who always besiege men of
rank, warmed into awakened interest as tho
object of his visit was unfolded, and promised
to have these abuses inquired into. This
was done; and before Dr. Parrish left Homo
ha had tho pleasure of receiving the thanks of
tho Pope, transmitted through the cardinal,
and was only prevented by his departure from
enjoying 11 personal interview with His Holi
ness. So much for the man. Now for tho
institution over which he presides.
In combating that terrific vice, intempe
rance, which, worse than war or pestilence,
threatens the destruction of our young gone-
ration, the doctor has wisely accepted tho
teaching ol all experience, and starts with the
fundamental principle that, ns cures for ine
briety, nil cruelty, personal invective, phy
sical violence, harsh treatment of whatever
kind, aro not only useless in themselves, but
in tho vast majority ot cases they absolutely
tenu to increase and aggravate the very pro
pensity they were intended to correct. Ho
recognizes tho much-ignored fact, that tho
only effective mentor to sermonize an ine
briate should be found in tho awakened con
science of that inebriate himself, roused to a
sense of his own degradation and spurred by
a determination to recover his own lost man
liness; and that tho only effective asylum for
such an individual is one to which he comes
voluntarily, seeking assistance to work out his
own reformation. Now this is just exactly
what Dr. Parrish's institution is intended
for to extend to fallen humanity a sup
porting a crutch, not a belaboring cudgel.
The doctor has gallantly developed this
theory in the face of manifold opposition,
with what success I leave tho reader to de
termine. "My establishment," he exclaimed, em
phatically, "is no prison, no insane asylum:
my young men are free to go where they
please and when they please; nor do I wish
them to feel under auy restraint, except such
as may be self-imposed by their own desire to
benefit themselves and gratify me. If they
wish to leave me they are free to do so. I
will not act the ignominious part of turnkey.
While they stay with me I trust to their
honor that they will not infringe any of my
regulations."
During my residence at the Aquarium
or, to drop hyperbole and give the institu
tion the . title by which it is
commonly known, the "Sanitarium" I had
full opportunity of seeing and judging the
benefits resulting from the excellent system
pursued there, until I wondered that men
should ever have been so narrow-minded as
to attempt the cure of intemperance by any
other means. This institution is under the
charge of an association of citizons chartered
by the Legislature of Pennsylvania, so re
cently as lMiti, to purchase lauds and erect
buildings for tho cure of intemperance.
It is pleasant to turn from the long list
of failures to effect the latter object that
the records of so ninny other institutions
furnish, to the cheering words of tho
President of tho Citizens' Association, Dr.
Joseph Parrish, embodied in his first annual
report. Young as it is, tho institution pros
pers already, for it is skilfully conducted, in
accordance with that system which experience
indicates as the only one offering a prospect
of success. "Men say" I quote the words
of the report "that drunkards aro beyond
hope, because they have tried everything
within thoir reach and have been unsuccess
ful; but this does not prove that because a
jail, au almshouse, an asylum for tho insane,
a change of residence or travel, has been
unsuccessful, everything else will bo.
It only proves that the means that
were tried in tho particular cases
were not successful, aud probably because
they were not the best means. If there is
truth in humanity, in science, iu religion,
there is truth in the declaration that a large
proportion of cases may be cured. We aro
an association for the purpose of strengthen
ing a class who need strength, and of saving
from additional shame those who are too
often classed as criminals, by throwing
around them tho allurements of a domestic
retreut and the refinements of elevated so
ciety, that they may be relieved from a con
dition for which they are not always directly
responsible."
What cheering, hopeful, benevolent, and
sensible language is this! Come with me
now, I beg you, O, reader ! that I may show
you how this admirable theory has been do
veloped into beneficial practice.
