Kescived, That an increase, at an early day, of t State students, now authorized by every eonsideration of jrstice and expeciency, is de- manded, and our Senators and Representatives are hereby requested to make such amendments in the law of March 2, (867, as may secure to the deaf and damb of the United States equal P in the college, and the attention of “ongress is respectfully directed to the fact that iminense portions of the retional domain have been appropriated for the endowment of uni- hes and colleges for bearing snd speaking youths, in the advantage of which deat mutes capnot participate; hence, in the judgment of this Conference, it is most fitting and proper that a college for this class of persons—shat eut, until recently, from the benefits of colie- giate education—sbould be perfected and main- tained on a liberal scale by the National Gov. ernment.

The regular weekly meeting ot the Central Auti-Radical Club was held last evening at Trades Union Hall; the President, John Col- lins, in the chair, and Geo. G. Wilsor Secre- tara protem. Mr. RW. Fenwick thought the most important business before the club was to suggest to the different wards to prepare for a general ratification meeting. The Radicals ‘Were wide awake, and it was very essontial to Nictory that the Democrats should be active. ‘The name of Jobn T. Given was a watch-word, and with proper efforts he could be elected Mr.Gorbutt moved that the delegates be au- thorized to call meetings of their ward clubs to make arrangements for a ratif'cation meet- ing, to be held in front of the City Hall on Fri- day evening next; adopted. The Chau sng- gested that the Executive Committee appointed by tbe Iast convention would act in conjunc- tion with the delegates to this club to call a @ratification meeting. Mr. McGinnis sugges- ted next Friday evening for the meeting, as all the wards would have nominated their tickets ‘wy that time. The Chair announced as the committee trom the Central Club to co-operate with the Executive Committee, Messrs. W. T. Drory, Jobn W. Tucker, W. E. Brown, Geo. G. Wilson, A. P. McKenna, J. M.

Mr. Riddle, on taking the chair, spoke of the coming election as one of great importance, be- ing the first which will take place after the Chicago nominations. The question of the fitness of the candidate had been seitled by the convention, and no true Kepublican would now bring ‘up small questions. There was & great question on trial, (referring to impeach. ment,) and let the verdict be as it may, the hour will come when it will be taken by ap- peal to the count: He did not believe that the salvation of the party depended on this Issue, time the Fourth Ward Club appeared, At headed by the Mozart Band, (colored ) A nurm- ber of transparencies were carried in the line of this club, imseribed: “Sayles J. Bowen, a man WLO can say ‘yes or no’ to friend or foe, as bis sense of duty prompts;” “Fourth Ward, IS majority, June, '67—Sv0 majority June, 1865: “In the sacred name of justice we demand ail our righte;” “The right to vote includes the right to be voted for;” “Equality before the law; a cominon school ecucation—the birth- a ot —e born on American soil;* ive us a Republican Government, and we Will give you good schools, good drainage, and good streets;”" “Sin is a reproach to any person;” Pure was thy life; iis bloody close bas placed thee with the sons ot light, among the noble host of those who per- ished in the cause of Tight;” “Andrew John- son: “Of all we loved and honored. naught save power remains: a fallen angel's pride of thought, still strong in chains,” ” Air. Jobn H. Croseman, of the Fourth Ward, read appropriate resolutions indorsing the nomination of Mr. Bowen, declaring that the administration cf Andrew Jonson bad been an incubus on the Prospest of the city, and looking for a just verdict by Senate. Senator Harlan was introduced, and in the course of his remarks said he bad no little in- terest in the city,as chairman of the Senate District Committee, and would work for the citizens, independent of their political com- Plexions. He would, however, rather do an act of kindness for a friend than a foe, and be- lieved that it would be better if the majority of the citizens were in accord with the majority ot Congress. The Republican Convention meets in Chicago this month, and if the citizens desired U.S. Grant for President, they should certainly select officers in accord with che prin- ciples of that distinguished gentleman. The speaker had hada personal acqueintance of many years with Sayles J. Bowen, and would candidly say that he was the best man that could possibly be elected to office in Wis Dis- trict lor many years. [Applause.} During Mr. Harlan's remarks the Third Ward delegation appeared on the ground, headed by martial music and cai line trensparancies with mottoes: Rowen, our only choice, 700 ma: Rights for all Special Privileges: Trade and just res; Tee to its Principles and tts Frie ” “Free Press: Free Schools, Free Men;* “Equai Distribution ot Labor,” “Look to the Senate.” The Seventh Ward next entered the square, headec by martial music, and the Fitth and Sixth Wards came close after, while the First and Second Wards were not far behind. Among the mottoes were the following:—+-F. well, City Register; Seventh Ward, siand by him ee Schools, Free Government, Free Peoph h for all, all for each-"" “The laborer as worthy of bis hire;” Pay bim liberally a: “Equal distribution of labor: ad Lock: exact justice alone will re- “Free Schools for free people; look picture of “School our Children;” ‘will reconstruct the S “More hgkt, less mud. ‘The Fifth Ward carriea a broom on a pole: “Justice and freedoi;” “Away with Moses;" “Vox populi, vox dei; “Liberty, the Gift of Ged anc Birthright of man;” “Repuolicans must triumph; “Serve the Lord with fear and Tejoice, and I Will strengthen thee; “Ready to detend the Law:” “We will meet you square promptly:* “The I The Second Ward had the pames of the can- didates ior the Couu. in (Bowen);” “Charity to all, malic to All rights to all mex Jur candi- dates will pay the teachers irst Ward, the banner ward for Sayles J. Bowen, 2,001 Colonel Stokes addressed the meting, say- ing:—In casting a vote for the candidates se- lected, the voter should consider that he is casting bis vote for U.S: Grant. The coustry is now passing through a crisis. The ques- tion is to bedecided whether one man shall put his feet upon the iaws and defy them. I: as been said that we shall fal. The soldiers never received any such order. Though beaten, they retired en the defensive and called on Congress for reinforeemeni:,and when they were received the men moved forward and victory was secured. The speaker was con- fident that there would be no failure. It was merely a question of time whether the usurper of the White House should be expelled. The first attempt at impeachment failed, but rein- forcements were received, and the measure was ut through. It the Senate fails, what next ? he speaker thea proposed to bring out a new set of charges, three feet in length, ifnecessary He would ther want new recruits. He would bring im the fourteen Senators and thirty mem. bers from the Southern States, and then there would be no such thing as failure. (Applause. } The true Republicans would never give up ihe fight. [Applause } The party had some who Jeft the ranks—United tes Senators who claimed to be Republicars. The live coals of public indignation will be heaped on their shells. 1t had been asked it impeachment was to be made a party issue. It certainly wns. When the Democratic party fell in solid pha- janx against a measure, they by their own acts made it a party measure. The speaker thought that the election would be no more than a form—there were men enough present to elect Mr. Bowen. (Applause.) Colonel Stokes was fcllowed at the main siand by General McKee, of Kentucky, Gen- eral John T. Deweese, of North Carolina, Col. Brownlow, Col. W. S. Morse, Rev. Anthony Bowen, (colored,) and John L. Pfau. After the ward delegations had arrived, it was found necessary that other speakers should be provided, and accordingly Mr. J. C. Jobnson, (colored,) one of the vice presi- dents, called the crowd im front of the western wing of the Hall to order, and after a few spir- ited remarks introduced Hon. Sidney Perham, of Me., who expressed the belief that impeach- ment would go throngh to-day, but if it failed, it would be like the first battle of Buli Run, they would rally for the second charge. Mr.'F. A. Boswell followed. saying that Mr. Bowen had received the nomination, and would be elected, when the colored people would get their rights, and the school question would be settled. For tea months had he battled for their rights in the City Hall, but their dues had been kept back by the City Hall ring. It was not the —. who had prevented taem from getting thelr rights. for be had not the courage, but he was pushed to it by bad, designing met. He Teterred to the meeting of the trustees and teachers of the schools in reference to the “dead lock.” and read from the act of De- cember 26th, 1867, in relation to the payment of the colored schools. The Mayor approved that act, one provision of which is that he sbeuld, at the same time of paying the whi school teachers, pay the Py x ° colored schools,’ and he (Mr. B.) stood by that lew, and would ssue no checks for the white schools unless tae law was complied with. He believed in education and the daty of an of- ficer after signing an act to execute it. The ESE senting spn the Sagal at's of getting spoils at ity ‘and he haa also been censured in the STAR, but he cared nothing for such opposition.

If Mr. Bowen was elected Congress for the schools, as dresses were made Mr. A. P. Farden, of N J: W. B. Hawes of the Great Republic; Jos. W. Holden, ot N.C., son of Gov.
