The eigbt-bour bill is already a law in Dini. noit, and & similar Dill bas passed both brancbes of the Wisconsin Legislature. and only Iacks the Governor's signature to become alaw also. The Wisconsin bill is very simpie in its provisions,and declares that eight hours shall be the limit for a day’s work where no contract is made, and that women and chil- dren shail not be compelled to work over eight boursa day. In New York the carpen- ters, who are striking for higher wages, were in session on last Friday night, and reported that 100 ont of 300 employers have uber men employed at the advanced rate; that 450 carpenters are pow working at the advaneed rate, and 500 are still out of employment, though they expect the other employers will yield this week. In Brooklyn, the strike of the carpenters for increased wages has been completely successtul. The laborers employed by the Morris and Essex Railroad Company, ai their coal wharves in Hoboken, struck for &n advance of two cents an hour wages on Friday. The company refused the increase, and thus the matter stands. in Jamaica, L. 1., the masons have struck for £4.508 day. At Pittsburg, in January last, all the puddiers and employees of the several iron works struck to prevent a decrease of wages, and over 7,000 ‘workmen left the foundries. The mill-owners said they were unable to pay the previousiy given wages, and the men refused to work for any less. Since January the latter have been unemployed, and very little Das been done at the foundries. Great distress has been caused by this strike, which seems mo nearer adjust- ment now than when it began. The strike among the workingmen at « mines in Morris county, New Jersey, contin- ues. In the neighborhood of Dover, in that county, there are 26 different mines, empleying over 2,500 bands. Of there o 1,000 miners have already participated in the strike, and they keep nearly 100 teamsters and other la- borers from working, as there is no ore for them to transport; eo that some 2,000 workmen are now idle. Briefly stated, the cause of the strike is, that whilst in 1565 these miners earned. about £2.50 a day, they have more recently been reduced to #165 a day, and they have struck for an increase. In addition to stopping work, the strikers bave determined that the large stocks of ircn ore that have accumulated. since the navigation of the Morris canal was closed last fall shall aot be removed, now that navigation bas reopened; and great trouble is re! Mr. Williams.—The gentleman says wha: is BOt 80. Mr. Orane remarked that a mao might as weil bea boree thief and say he was a good church member. Mr. Williams referred toa church member, & radical abolitionist, like the geatieman, (Mr. C.) who, when be got hard up for money, would sell a slave. Mr. Crane.—Do you mean to ssy that 1 ever bought or solid human beings ! T Chair cailed the gentieman to order, = img that he would allow no further person- alities Rev. W. J. Waiker eaid he hoped the expia- Dation would be deemed satisfactory, and ‘hat the spat between the gentlemen would kindie the fires of the locomotive which would take them on their way rejoicing. T otion of Rey. Mr. Walker was carried. ‘The Chair expressed the hope that it was ail over now, and ng more would be heard of it Dr. Boyd called the attention of the meeting to a letter he bad received, as follows :-—“ Mr. Boyd—Leave the city, or we will make you a white man Rey. Mr. Walker asked if the Republicans intended to repulse individuals who have been secessionists, cr will they take in the prodigais. The Chair understood that all wonld be taken in Rev. Walker said he would repu lee no ap- plicant for admission, and would not ask what A&A man was five or six years ago, but whatare you now? He moved that the conference committee of 14 be discharged. Dr. Boyd ar, that the motion be yoted down, and before he would agree to it he would remain all night. He said that other clubs had appointed or were about to appoint similar committees. The motion was withdrawn. Mr. Netter (colored) remarked that if the colored peeple had the right of suffrage they ‘Were entitled to sit on the juries, and thought that at least one half of such jury on the eases of colored men should be men of the same race. The Chair said he was of the opinion that the word white was used in the original jary law, but that alater law does not use the term. Mr. Williams asked it the constitutional "marae and civil rights bill remedy the evil. The Ohair thought it did. Mr Williams said he would advise them, when they were refasedon the jury, toappiy to the courts, and their demand would be sustained. ‘ Dr. Boyd expressed the same opinion; and the meeting adjou: tion having perfected their organization, met again at Albany last evening and adopted address to the electors of the State complain- ing of the unjust apportionment of the State with regard to the election of delegates to the Constitutional Convention, and severely de- nouncing the Kepublicsn party. The com- mittee on nominations reported a list of dele- gates to the Constitutional Convention, which, alter some debate, was adopted without divi- sion. The convention then adjourned. The Republican convention at Syracuse. N Y., yesterday, placed in nomination del- egates at large to the Constitutional Conven- tion. A resointion was upanimously adopted that the delegates to the coming Con- stitutionai Convention this day appointed be wmstracted to support by every honorable means an amenament to the constitution giv- img to the black man the same right to the ballot as the white man The Union Pacific Raiiroad Company, of the Kansas branch, applhed to the Govern- ment yesterday for a commissioner toexamine the seventh section of this road extendin from the Salina river, forty-five miles west of Fort Riley. The track is being laid at the rateofamile anda baif per day. The cars will reach Salina, fifty miles beyond beyond Fort Riley, and four hundred and sixty-eight miles west of St. Louis, on Saturday. The directors of the Boston, Hartford and Erie railroad appeared before the Legislative Committee on roads and Canals of Massa- chuesetts. Tuesday, te support their petition for aid trom the State to enable them to complete the road. The amount asked for asa loan is $3,000,000. Notice of an application for an injunction against the purchasers of the Iron ountain railroad have’ bees served, and the application will be heard before Judge Rombuer, ef the Circuit Court of St. Louis on Friday next. The Tennessee Republican convention a: Memphit appoint congressional delegates was about equally composed of blacks and whites. A negre was vice president. Tne meeting was barmonions. The iargest dry-goods store in Richmond, ., owned by J. Steenback & Co., has been seized on an attachment and sold out by Claflin & Co., of New York, for $48,000. The Spanish Government refuses to yield to the demand made by Engiand for indemni- ty and satisfaction in the case of the steamer Tornado The Snitan threatens to declare war against Greece on account of the continuance of the insurrectionary troubles on the Turkish fron- ner. Funeral services took place in Gardiner, Me., yesterday afternoon over the remains of the late Hon. George Evans. Mrs. Major Green, who resides somewhere in the South, was killed at the railroad depot in Columbus, Ohio, yesterday. The Republicans of Chicago have nominated Jobn B. Hill for Mayor. Another crevasse occurred in the Parish of West Baton Rouge, Louisiana, Tuesday. There was no quorum of the Legisiature of Virginia present in Richmond yesierday. — 9 FourTH Warp RgepcsticaN CLus.—Last night the 4th Ward Republican Uiub met in the Baptist Church, corner of itn and L sts., pursuant to adjournment last Monday nigat. The President, Mr. Sayles J. Bowen, cailed the meeting to order, and a communication from the Central Republian Association, transmit- ting the resolutions relative to ward nomina- tions, and inviting the election of 15 delegates toa Convention for the nommaticn of city oM- cers, was read and laid on the table till the next regular meeting. The President calied for the reports of dis- trict committees upon registration, which was responded to by Mr. J.

The men claim jand. colored, from the 4th, and Mr. Jeffries, colored, from the 5th districts, and from the re- ports it appeared thatthe members have been working actively ia bringing up the voters of the ward to the registry. Much credit was given to Mr. West, colored, and others co-operating with him, in bringing out the sick and disabled. Mr. West meutioned the fact that some he had beard from are afraid to register, haying been threatened with dismissal by employers if they did. Mr. Donegan moved that two white and two colored members be app >inted a committee, and with hacks to scour the ward and bring up the voters, which was adopted, and Capt G. F. Needham and J.B. Gangewer, white, and John Barker and Lafayette Jeffries, col- ored, were appointed. On motion of Mr. Jeffries, Messrs. Donogan and Rhinehardt were appointed to visit the Government Printing Office and eudeayor to get out the voters there. Mr. Rbinebardt eaid he had visited the Ln- terior Department, and found a namber of persons who were disposed to register. but were afraid of losing their residence rights in their States. Upon a call of the President for all who were aston and residents of the Fourth Ward who ad not registered to stand up, five only arose to their teet. The last part of the meeting was occupied onthe subject ef some of the efficers inve ling some of the voters to register surrep' tlously by the “back door,” and also the fa- voritism shows some white friends in the “front door.”” Mr. Mitchell said that he had heard a white man say in the crowd. “Oh! d—n,1 am not going up among these niggers to register.” He ‘went to the side door, and he (Mitchell) saw the same man, with some of his friends, going in_* sidewa: that the wages they were receiving were n sufficient to procure the necessaries of life for their families. Other movements among workingmen are announced. The todl-sharp- enersof New York struck yesterday for $3.50 a day, ‘or piece-work at stated prices.” The United Berrickmen of New York on Saturday last determined to demand $3 a day after Mon- day next The New York carpenters are still on strike, and whilst the employers are gradually yieid- ing, new journeymen are joining the strikerg and refusing to work for present wages. Many employers still bold out, hewever. There are about 6,000 carpenters im New York, nearly 1,000 of whom may be set down as em- ployers: and of the others it is estimased that 0) Rave already procured the advanced rate of wages; from 700 to 900 are now out of work, striking; and trom 5,300 to 3,500 are working at the old rate, not being connectea wit the trade society that bas struck for higher wages.

He would say that in future the regular meetings would be heid every Wednesday night in that place, (St. Prui’s Chapel.) The names of the following were proposed, and they were elected members: Chas Hand- ley, white;and Riley Mickens, John Basco, Peyton Pierce. Jas. Robinson, F. Spencer and Wm. Jones, colored.

The meeting was called to o: der by Mr. Jos Wiihamson, when Mr. Alex- ander Rutberford was called to the chair, and Mr. Allison Nailor, jr., chosen secretary There were present about twenty-five voters of the ward. The following named gentlem’n were nom- inated as delegates :—J. J. Joyce, Jas Barker, Alex. Rutherford, Jos. Williamson, John Bre- nan, Wm. Flynn, Allison Nailor, jr., and Wm. Greason. Messrs. Williamson and Greason declined. Mr. Flynn also asked to be excused, but the meeting declined to do so. The vote being taken, Messrs.

There were present W. M. Wallington, F. A. Aiken, Jobn Ritchie, W. M. ‘yey, Albert F. Fox and two otber gentiemen. After waiting until quarter past § o'clock for a crowd it was decided to hold the meeting anyhow and elect delegates. About this time a numberof members of the Fenian brothe: hood appeared and stated they had rented the hall for the evening: they, that the seven Democrats should have theroom was sick and tired of it. Mr. J. H. Crane (white) said that there was no occasion for the resolution, as no one would be qualified as a delegate unless he was a cit- izen of the ward. ‘The Chair stated he thought no action should be taken until the registry is over in that ‘ward. Mr. S.S. Baker (white) moved to strike out the number, and there being no objection that clause was stricken out. Mr. Hepburn said if the Seventh Ward regis- tered 2,500 voters he thought that twice the number of delegates should be elected as from the Third Ward, which had registered but half that number. ‘The resoiution was adopted—Mr. Hepburn voting in the negative. Mr. J. H. Crane offerea a resolution that in the opinion of the association the number of delegates to the convention in May should be im proportion to the voting population of each ward. He argued that this was only fair, but he would not press the resolution. Mr. Joseph Williams, of Virainia, (signer ot the secession ordinance) thought the idea was a good one, and while he agreed in its justice, he thought it would act as a fire. brand. He referred to the fact that there is &n impression in some of the wards, narticu- lariy the Fourth Ward, that the Seventh Ward Association attempts to prepare business for the entire city, and he suggested that the sub- ject had better be iaid over. Mr. Crane said the resolution was only one expressing an opinion, and it could do no barm. He did not think that because the Fourth Ward chose to attribute improper mo- tives to the asseciation that itshould quiedy succumb, and he would urge the association to act without fear or favor. Dr. Boyd favored the resolution, but thought it would do no good, and suggested that it lay over. The resolution was accordingly laid over. The Chair laid before the association the resolutions adopted by the Central Association in reference to a neminating convention. Mr. Hepburn moved to lay them on the table: he did not recognize any authority on the part of the central association to call 4 convention. The Chair explained that the resolutions were simply advisory, and not mandatory. Mr. Hepburn repeated that the central asso- ciation had no anthority in reference to the convention. and every other agency for the moulding*of public opinion, should be earnestly employed to instigate & removal of the unchristian and inhuman prejudice Rarp on Foxes. numerous on James river, in the neighborhood of Brandon, that a short time since it was fesred they would entirely exterminate the bares and tridges, to say nothing of their incursions into the farmers’ yards. A nom- ber of gentlemen, consequently, determined to Tage ped the depredators, without caring for the mode of warfare, and the consequence has been that. within comparatively a short period, three of the party baye shot fifty- three. —Rich.
