Their Third Annual convention. This morning, at 95 o’clock, was opened in the Assembly Buildings, Tenth and Chestnut streets, the-third-annual-convention.of-the- Master Mechanics of the United States. H. M. Britton, of Cincinnati, President of the Association r .calle(h the; assemblagiilto -order, and stated that a prayer would be offered by Mr. Wells, of the Jefferson, Madison and In dianapolis Bailroad. After the prayer the President stated that the Committee on Man ufactures had presented the Convention with white badges, which the members were re quested to wear, to designate them from the visitors. The fourth article of tlie Constitution of the Association, relating to the qualifications of master mechanics as members, was then read by Mt. Britton. The minutes of the preceding convention were next read by the Secretary and the same adopted. The roll of members was then called and -new members allowed time to sign the con stitution. The President then delivered the following address: ~ Gentlemen of the Convention : Again wc are permitted to be gathered together in this our third anniversary, aud it is with no ordinary feelings of-satisfaction and pride that I greet you in open convention. Pride,. fir6t because you nave conferred upon me the honor of presiding, nnd secondly, because there is be fore me evidence of the not only unabated,but increased interest, as manifested by the number-present, and en larged by the addition of many now faces that have not .beforemet.vith.us. • -r .. Satisfaction, because our organization, undertaken witliiuauy fears andmlsgivingain . September, ’6B, is no longer au experiment, but a reality. Our session of ’69, also anticipated with some doubt, whs a source of encouragement and now this gathering of eighteen hundred und seventy,as though drawn by “brotherlv love,” because appointed here, proves and confirms the wisdom of all our previous efforts, aud es tablishes the Mastur Machinists Association of America upon a basis not to be disturbed, aud therefore'a fixed fact. . Wear©now an organization that cannot fail to be productive of good results-, that will be enhanced in pro portion to our perseverance. Known only to ourselves for a time, w e are now a reorganized body of men,as be ing anxious to serve faithfully the interests of our. employes-and to cater to the comfort and safety of the traveling public. We are recognized by the superior officers of the different lines of railway with which we nre connected, and thus sustained- and encouraged by the countenance thoy have given our undertaking. ... ~o:riepres our proceedings, and we have many indications that we are recogized by the traveling public, who appreciate all efi'nrtVmade in their behall tending t«> their comfort, speed and safety in traveling. Favorably the owners of railroads have watched our progress and intentions, because thoy observe a deter mination on our part to promote their interosis by a faiihful desire to improve upon, and care for their pro pertv. confided to us In trust. • With all these surrounding encouragements, eontle men. we may well foil proud of our institution, though yet in its infancy, but already indicating such perma nence and beneficial results. •The object of our Association is not of a mercenary character ; we gather together that by united experience wo may gain knowledge in our profession,and this knowledge thus acquired cannot be stamped as a selfish desire, for it la to be directly imparted to those in our employ, and indirectly applied to the interests of the community wherever penetrated by the iron rail and traversed l»y the locomotive. Let us their feci greatly encouraged in our enterprise, and enter upon the work with renewed zeal, and a per manent and gratifying success will crown our efforts. The reports of the various committees submitted to the last Convention at Pittsburgh wero very satisfac tory, and abounded in useful iulormation. These haVe been printed in pamphlet form, and copies may be ob tained by application to the Secretary. Avery member should recognize it as his duty, and esteem it u pleasure to render ull the assistance possible to the various committees, by promptly contributing any uew ideas in his experience upon any topic that may come before the convention, thus adding to tie* commou store-house of mechanical knowledge. After "the committee appointed last year shall make their report to this convention, an opportunity will be given for discussion, and 1 would especially urge upon all to participate with a perfect freedom. A member who entertains different views from those advanced by the committee, or whose experience would suggest any modification or addition to their conclusions, will, " withbuniesifationVl theih ktiownTor bur’ common benefit. It is only by a free interchange of thought aud views, openly expressed in a free and candid discussion, that wc cau arrive ut the object of our asso ciation, which is. the promotion of knowledge ami the nearest possible approach toji perfect system of man agement in the practical workings of the machinery de partment of railways, in detail. We may thus arrive at important and valuable facte and conclusions that could not bo reached by any otle-r channel. I hope, therefore,that no one,through modesty or otherwise, will hesitate to give ns the beuefit oftheir experience upon any topic that may come before the convention, or that may be suggested in their own minds. 1 would call t.be attention of members to the fact tliut. tonverj limitf’tt extent, the leading officers of a few rond> hat e formed a wrong conception of the objects of our undertaking. In some instances it has been coupled with ,k labor unions ’ and otlmr offensive .projects that are entirely foiejgn to our Intention. - It is desirable thai-niembers should personally make it a point to disabuse the minds of such officers of their erroneous impressions, and explain fully the object and importance ol our meetings and diseus.dous, and wolicil tht-irco-opeiatiou. When weare thus fully understood they will undoubtedly Imartily second onrefiortsto pro mote the welfare of our association, and thereby sus tain us in striving t<> unite our common knowl edge and experience in whatever tends to oeouomv, durability mid safety in the management of the property committed to our care. Those of us who can look back ward twenty-five jears and hoo the \ ant strides that have been made in thorjnulity and management of machinery, can ioriu some idea ol what may be expected for the future. Let each one of ub then endeavor to make the im provement for the next twenty-five > ears compare favor ably with the past, ho that in tne future, should w« be soared, wo may look back with feelings of pi id** and upon our organization of ISOS; and to accom plish this, cuch cue must be willing and anxious to con tribute his mite to the general fund of knowledge. Ido not wish to be considered wearisome, but the,re is another feature to which 1 would call your attention, and that is its social element .

Mr. Dodge offered the following: “ The. question hating been raised as to the pro priety of allowing visitors to attend the de liberations pf the association, it is moved that the privilege he temporarily accorded each member ot inviting such guests as he may elect, and that the subject be referred for final action to a committee upon revision of by laws.” Agreed to. - After some discussion, on motion of Mr. tho resolution was reconsidered.

Tho Committee on Boilers and Boiler Ma terials, appointed at the last Convention, con sisting of Messrs. Hays, Anderson and Jau riet, then reported progress, and offered seve ral valuable suggestions relative to the con struction of locomotive boilers. The report also treated of the relative merits of English and American locomotives, and claimed pre ference for the latter on account of their being better adapted for work on roads of any con struction, the English engine being only suited for roads constructed in a firsUclass manner.

Agreed to. , A discussion followed on “ boiler plates,” m which a number of the delegates took part. 1 he next business in order being the report on steel tires and axles, the committee reported progress and asked for time to finish their report. On motion, the committee was con tinued. The Committee on Cylinder and Stuffing next reported, and their report received and adopted,and the Committee discharged. A dis cu.ssion then followed, when twenty-four dele gates argued in favor of spring and thirty in tavor of steam packing. Many of the delegates favored what is known as the “ Dunbar Patent Packing.’’ Others were in favor of the use of the “ Steam’s Patent Packing," thements and demerits of both being pretty generally venti lated. Mr. Gregg, of the Erie R. R., moved that a vote bo taken, so as to ascertain how many of the members favored the Stevens, the Dun bar, or the Spring packing. To this motion Mr. Sellers objected, stating that he was not in favor of having the Con vention advertise any man’s particular claims. Mr. Gregg disclaimed any such idea and only desired to know the respective choice of each master mechanic present. Mr. Hayes entertained the idea that differ i-tice in water and iron formed the principal 'rouble with regard to either packing. On one t oad where the water was good, the Dunbar [lacking would suit, whilst on another it might not be found to answer. He was of the opinion 'bat the question might be discussed until doomsday and no conclusion arrived at. As i o the matter of voting he did not think the convention ought to take any such vote. The President announced that there were several gentlemen present who favored both .Steam’s and Dunbar’s packing, and hence i liey eould-not-oast a-vote-in—favor-of-eitlier.- On motion, tho one made by Mr. Gregg, was laid upon the table. The report of the Com mittee on Boiler Incrustation was next called nil. I u response the Secretary stated that the chairman of the committee had, through a change in his position, been unable to attend iu ths matter, but bad transferred the duty ci Mr. Tour. Mr. T. consulted with Mr. Hav, nf the T. AV. & AY. R. R., but the latter gentle man, through ill health, could afford no as -ist'ance, consequently the labor devolved upon Mr. T. alone, who presented, not a re port, but a communication pertiueut to the - object. The paper recommended the use of -unie arrangement by which the water used might be purified, as tliat element and its cou -.1 intent parts wore the sole cause of incrusta-, 'ion. On motion, the paper was ordered to Im entered on the minutes. The next business in order was the report 1 of tbe Committee on Safety A'alves, which was read by the Secretary. On motion, the report was received and adopted and the Committee discharged. The Committee on Smoke Stacks, Ash Pans, 1 and Grate Bars, reported through the Secre-i tary. and the same was received, adopted, and tlio committee discharged. The report of the Committee ou Boiler Ex plosious was next called lor, but owing to the absence of tbe chairman, the committee asked lor furthertime, which request was granted. ’The Committee on Dead Weight, Rolling •Stock made a similar request, which was grunted. The Committee on Uniform Size of Tires re ported through the secretary. The number of different-sized tires in use amounts to (id, and i lie committeo reported in favor of several of diem alone, tbe centres being .‘36, 40, 44, .to, 56 and 1/2 inches. .Tlio report was received, adopted, and the committee discharged.

Fox’s Amkp.ican Varieties.— There is an old adage that “ Merit will meet with its re ward.” There is no better practical illustra tion of this than the popular applause which eveiy evening greets the efiorts of Mr, Mana ger Fox, who lias made his variety theatre one of the fixed institutions of Philadelphia. When he gets into his more palatial establishment on -Chestnut, above-Tenth, he can congratulate himself upon hifi great success in business. To achieve this much requires close attention to business, continuous perseverance, liberality, and judgment, especially in choosing his as sistants. A few years since he came to Philadelphia a stranger," and, by his unostentatious deport ment, he collected around him friends whose good opinions are Worth cherishing. The en tertainments at the Varieties are thrilling and exciting, and as they all possess merit, must of necessity become popular with the public. His minstrel performers are the most eminent iu the sable profession. —Public Record, Sept. 10.
