Four the designated hour, found but few In ottendance, but punctually at live minutes thereafter the bell tinkled. and the nrst large delegation arrived—blooming rep renentatives of a certain college not fur it was not long thereafter till the room tray tilled. then the hall. then smaller room In the rear, and finally every available kiare In the vicinity of the operations. (treat ndness had been shown the reporters by the preparation of n table in the tear room, . . . far removed from the thickest of the fray. They, however, repudiated that action and solemnly removed their quarters and the table to a more convenient location, near the door connecting the two Theme. The width of the door alone prevented the further advance of the piece of furniture. From thin eligible location they who surrounded the article look ed In main a scene of brilliancy and beauty and variety, eminently suggestive of a conserva tory of flowers filled with—humming birds. The hem lens especially perceptible. The contemplation of this phenomena of rural life, however, was of short duration. The Presi den Miss !Matilda Hindman, at this instant gat n an appearance. AU voices were sub and all eyes turned towards her U. she .. • slowly assumed possession of a gorgeous, eel vet custdoned high-hacked ern, chair In one corner, and then cast a benign glance upon her assembled coadjutors. She broke the awful silence at length by arising and calling upon the other officers, If P r Nobody stirred at this remark: . . Actin she surveyed the room and raid, after a-pause. ladles, all the officers are not present, but 1 suppose we have enough to or ganize a meeting.' • She wet correct in this yid, Two Vice Presidents, one Secretary. a Treasurer and ten of the Executive Committee were observed to nod approvingly. • The President In accordance with the co, stitution, opened the exercises with a ferreat and very appropriate prayer for guidance in all the deliberations which might come up and for wisdom In the performance of all the duties which might be imposed upon them. and especially that none might shrink from doing the right and fearing no censure in per formance. • At the conclusion of the devotional exercis- . . . es a slight pause ensued, which was again In terrupted by the President, who arose, and In A calm, rather defiant voice, commenced THE INAVOCHAL ADDHLPft. She thanked too members for the honor eon on on her, and hoped to be able. to di., charms the duties ot the t h at satisfactorily. It was now easily seen that the cause was prosperinmaud would eventually be au or igi n tul. The habit. ot mankind hate their origin in the minds of a few leading individuals. • • . - •• When establiatied. these customs are ;damps Idolized, and men are found too willing to give up everything, to sacrifice everything, for the sake of maintaining them. Some of the most heartrending scenes are recorded as the result of this blind attachment to custom. ....Coble men and noble women have been Interl aced because they have been more far—seeing than others; or have started progressive ideas. The angry public have persequted them with fury. yet in time the public are contented to . . adopt' these sere customs that they railed against before. 'Yee.. scoffs usedlcue—e theof means have been to suppress the free expression of opinion. Tarand feath ers, the gallows, the stake. nod °therm.= of torture have been resorted to. The mane of the people ate slow to take up reforms. Yet. when they become Fattened of their excellence they cline° them with the greatest tenacity. W omen Suffrage Is one of the reforms that Mot not been recognized by the people, and the mass of the people are determined that they will not encourage it. Yet Its advocates are putting themselves upon a Christian platform. There are many. reasons why women won't assist in this. matter. They are afraid of being considered out of their sphere. It is not ignorance: for some of the most relined women of the eonntry oppose us. What lit then? One class of enamels fearthe change. They ace dreadful things In the future—disor der. anarchy anti chaos. where peace and har mony presided before; mood huabauds and luring brothers changing to creatures little Lett erthan Mormons and men treat Ina women as barbarians. They fear that men will lose regard for them if they meddle In polities: or will become drunkard* and blaspheme.. and enter Into all the sleet; possible. -knottier clan. fear they may hare to carry hods; to stand to the cars and be subject to other in conveniences if woman suffrage be granted. AU we have to say is, every true man will respect them Jost so mach loath. new sphere as they do now. If men have only been treat ing women well, because women have given to them certain snivilege they ought not to have. Instead of respecting them for their modesty wad womontaxid, then. alt thispre tended respect is but a sham. In fact. every true man would respect women more, and bad men fear them more, they had the power to vote. We have had Intelligentwomen tell us that this new suffrage ght; but they city. if we go Into this matter we will be compelled to vote and have mrtaln responsibilities rest ing upon us. What kind of sorrier have those who shirk duty thus? - Can they . nut see that Instead of having drunken .husbands and houses of ill-fame, they wilt be able to raise their husbands. brothers sod sisters from deg radation. If there be anyone blessing greater than another. it Is the privilege of doing good to others. I hope these women will do their duty, and when the walls of orphan children, drunken husbands and Wien sisters come up. as are dells. ringing In their ears, they will arouse to the uecessity of action. Now to another class. • We all fear ridicule: brave men and women fear ridicule. When it *R3 fashionable to heap slander upon the heads of Abolitionists in' the emery movement. how few said slavery was wrong? but when popu lar feeling denounced It. how many flocked to the cannon's mouth willing to die to have It abolinheti? For that class cd women I have more feeling than all others. But of all reasons suffrage that we have heard, the most ~n . oe, are those given by the ladles of Wsehtegton city. In a petition forwarded to Cougrets,asklng tb.at body not to give women the right to vote. First. they held It would make them Immoral, and smond,that It would deprive them of the privilege of obeying their husbands. Immodest! Think of it. Ifindoce, . . . Persians. Chinese. Turks and other halt civil ised beings believe so to this day, cramp their feet and pat them In harness to preserve their modesty. It is very unfortunate that these Washiegton ladles live behind their time. If wecarit get Coder...to make laws compel. lag them to be modest. then let us apply for an appropriation to send them to Hindostarh China. Turkey. or some other congenial clime. They emit take care of their modesty with out going to Congrese—to men who hash been wading. for years in the pool of polities—to make law, for that purpose. Next, they say they could not ober their towheads. We are norm for them: sorry that they were born in the United States and have had oppertnnides o read the Bible. They are afraid it would make them had women. They bad better not • vote then. Leave It to those women who are not afraid that their modesty will suffer. American wo men, Mrs. Dalshren and a few others except wd, are plenty capable of retaining their sir,. toes. Why, In Ohlo, last year. there was One divorce out of every twenty-four married Per sons, and that not so much as in other places; Yet you Cant point to a single prominent Wo .marr Suffrage Imam that bass been concerned In these divorce suits, or that has proven a bad wife. Until such an one can be found out let such foolish babbling cease, for foolish babbling It In. It is a wonder that women who read the newspapers should be ig - qprant on these points. Speaking of the newspaper, I may say that we get good Ile we from the press. There Is alwaa• something good in the newspaper., and as men conduct them, we wont to say there is anything bad in them. .Men would not do anything NW: Ridicule, I hav said, is the most potent weapon our ne miese can use. If our ore:merits will only e tell their wives, daughters and sisters that their names will appear in the papers if they at tend our meetings, and that certain terms will he applied to them. that they will assuredly stay away. Leery tommunterly remark made by a scri b bler for a newspaper, or a social gossip, will have its effect: hut many women are above such remarks, and they have no ef fect on them. I also think a most potent reason why women should vote is this: men are always telling them they are angels—en perior beings and all that. I'll admit we are angels, and far above men. Then do not men hare a great deal of selfishness, to make laws for angels. They bad better go to heaven If they are :reared to legislate thus. [Angelic tlttenng. I'd like to have angels make my laws. I hold see have e right to represent ourselves and make our own laws. A halo of etherial glory seemed to rest over the assembly as the fair speaker concluded her remarks and resumed her rent.

Unfinished business being in order, the re port of the Committee on :Statistics was rend Your eommltiee would earnestly recommend to all the churches that in order to obtain stat istical informatlonof the general movements of. our brotherhood. that the elders or other per sous be appointed to take an accurate statis tical aceount.of the respective churches they represent, embracing.p the number of meMbers, additions. deaths, alm., and also of Sunday schools under their care, with numbers in at tendance and all monies expended in support of the cause at home, and that these reports shall be sent to the district meetings, and by the secretary of the district to the State meet ings, and from the State meetings to the gen eral meetings, to be embodied in our yearly reports. That t accomplish these ends we recommend tot e churChes that they keep an accurate chord record of all matters neces sary to assist I he making out of such sta tuisits.as are c templated to the above res.. Some discus. I a ensued upon the report. James , Oar statistics are not known. We are said tt number from four to fire hun dred thousand We du not know the exact figures, and l• la Neff Important we should know. The ost interesting department of our religious ewspapers is the account of the Increase of eh , rches In various localities. We desire to kno • how ;ouch mean . Is expedded. For more Is g ten than We suppose or know. We recomme d the preparation of a church record. . . , PA. Rensh!w-1 wont,' like to have em bodied In that report that a sermon be re quested to bodelivered by all pastors on this missionary einestion. S. N. Nose. d Indianaptdis.,l tiara been la boring for this Is recordl nearly forty years. I believe the all of us would like to have hoard how se parents became Christians. how - thcv bee ow so; how they lived; how they died; so I.wodld like to have all our States or counties, every preacher, elder and deacon represented In our annual meeting. so that see can have a full account of what Is being done all over the country. S. N. Green—This question of statistics Is ono I hope we will not forget when we go home. We ought to have, if anything, reliable statistics. It was stated in one issue of the ['brie:non . Eldon that vre had seven hundred thousand members. and next week five hun dred thousand wad given as the number. This is very mortifying to have onrselves nu tat represented. A. N. Gilbert—l have for many years kept a record of each of my members—when they were baptized. died. removed. ku—and once • year I deliver a tilscourse of statistics to my congregation. Elder Delinott —I visit congregations, and sometimes ask the question how many mem bers have you? and In several cases have been told, .We don't know." Thin neglect lies at our owndoort we do not inslid maul the eld ers keeping a correct record. One thing I wish to notice, and, that Is, that all members leaving • church should be compelled to take a letter, so then the church will not have any doubt about their membership. Wm. Row - zee—l think It would he as well to have some one In each district to keep an ac count, and to this end I would move this amendment; "That the Corresponding Secre tory- of each district be requested to obtain the statistics of each church iu his district and re. . • . • . port to the State meeting wolually." S. 11. tktke, of :Salem, Ohlo—l would object to the amendment for this reason. that the Elders would neglect to keep the record. Thin matter must commence in the church. When these books are printed the: most Illiterate man ran fill them up concisely, and with very little trouble. The L'hnirman thought both ideas might be embraced in one resolution. A. N. Gilbert—The very point aimed at by the committee isto . bring the churches into working order upon this point: to procure the keeping of proper statistics by them. Now, to Adopt this amendment, Is +lmply to destroy the very rwommendatlons which constitutes the life nod meaning of the amendment.

The subject of Itebaptiem was bronkht up, when the Rev. Mr. Clark. of Virginia, said these Words: "I have not believed for twenty year that anything but immersion was scriptural baptism. Ido not believe there hinny preeept or precedent In the New Testament : for Infant baptism."
