While this Congress professes to represent the working classes of the country; our read ers must bearin mind that it does not repre senttine-totirth of the workers of the country, and f the leading Measures adopted at. this COnvention were submitted to the intelli gent workingmen:of the countrY, a majority of the: propositions would be ' voted down three to one.
