The Secretary was instructed to forward to the Chairman of the Executive Committee all Possession, and the Con- sal Peace Union. After our report closed yesterday, the Presi- it (Mr. Love) offered a series of resolutions Suggesting that an amendment to the Constita- tuon is demanded, not as the church is sug- gesting, by the addition of words “to Almighty @od.” but by the taking out of everything inconsistent with His divine attributes; urging the abolition of the death penalty; favoring equal rights, as removing source ot disturbance endangering the peace of home, the community and the pation: demanding & radical change in the treatment of Indians; complimentary to E. ‘W. Wynkoop, Inte Indian agent, for resigning hus position; condemning General Sheridan's course towards the Indians, and calling upon the people to «cry aloud and spare not” in de- Benciation of such brutality. A memorial to Congress. as also & draft of bill, Was submitted with the resolution- Professor Wilcox offered resolu’.ous: Taat the obiect of the Universal Peace Union i= nox destroy government, but to make it needless. ‘Thar experience.

Mrs. Lucretia Mott, Mrs. Stebbins, of Michi- =. Arcbitald, of Kansas; Mr. Dandore. . Griffing, and the President, addressed the Union. It having been said that alcohol was the foundation of the Indist troubles, Mrs. Griffing remarked that legislators use alcobolic drinks and they should te Congress. A gentleman Said it was true thar Congress- men drank, but the laws were as strong as they could be made unless the death peaaity ‘was inflicted. Mr. Love, the President, read s letter from Mr. Wynkoop im vindication of the Indiaas. He also contrasted Sheridan's trestment of th Comanches with Grant's treatment of Lee's army. ‘The Union took & recess until 7 o'clock, on reassembling, Mrs. Dundore acted as sec: “Er Stebbins submitted a memorial to Uoi grees as to the treatment of the Indians, whi was adopted, with the seriee of resolutions offered ai the afternoor session, on motion of Mrs. Grit: ‘The following were appointed 2 commitiee w present the memorial and resolutions to Congress:—Mr. Stebbins of Michigan, Mrs. Jocephine S.

The i i mz. According to public announcement,anout ove hundred ladies assembled atUnion Leagne Hall this morming, to take imto considera:ion the most feasible plan by which the improvement of the female sex can be promoted. and the best ‘Whereupon an smumated ciscussion followed, as this was 3 woman's meeting, whether any gentleman sbould be allowed to remain. The question Was decided in the affirmative, and the speaker Mrs. Josephine S. Griffing followed with a ples for woman's building associations, board c. ‘was not for the purpose of considering the Swdject of working women’s associations. but for the object as previously stated. This being the case, Mrs. Griffing declined proceeding further Mrs. Oridge ‘followed, endorsing the pro- gramme as laid down, and counselling calm judgment and harmonious action. Mrs. Griffing stated that she had been as- sured that the South Carolina delegaticon in Congress, and ai least two United States Sen- ators, bad promised to suppart the female pe- utiows presented recently; and she predicted that sbould the vote be taken to-morrow, two- thirds of the House of Representatives would vote for these ‘tions. Dr. Mary Walker followed in advocacy ot woman suffrage, which she thought it neces- sery to attain im order to secure to her sex proper social relations. The divorce laws, from practical experience, she bad found very imperfect, and they should be so modified as to make it easier for a married lady to disen- gage herself from a brutis band. The ballot box, view of the question, and deemed it absolutely necessary that woman should have the ballot, inorder to secure to her those dition and to give her proper control of her family. She recited the present laws in opera- tion, whereby women could exercise no con- trol over either their children or property, and, in the name of justice, appe: fora ved effort to bring about a reformation. Miss Dr. Susan Ed_on was in favor of giving ‘Woman an opportunity of showing her capacii¥ for such work as heretofore been denied her, and by way of accomplisbing this object she counseled union of action, both among and females, as it would be a very diff. cult matter for one of the sexes to be successfi without the assistance of the other. In seci ing the ballet-box to woman she urged the ex- Pediency of organizing suffrage asvociations, composed of such women as were ready and able to work. Hy this means an influence would be exercised upom Congress which ‘would soon result in inching them to vote ter woman's suffrage and giving them many other rights which have heretofore been denied them. Miss Anthony wanted to break down the barriers in society whereby woman had here- been kept im the back ground and re- garded as a mere household utilitarian. She claimed the ballot, and denied the awertion that woman did not desire to meddle with politics. For hersex she demanded that woman ‘should have an equal share with man in framing our laws and executing the same. Women, sb= said, should not ask of the men anything as a favor: but they had a right to equal privileges. ‘There was no reason why there should be such discrnmination in the payment of salaries as ‘was now the practice; for woman who could perform the same service as man should be equally compensated therefor. The idea that ‘women should lie passively by and depend upon their busbands to support them was one which should be severely deprecated and speedily blotted out. The speaker proceeded at some length, and then made an appeal for subscribers 10 The Kerolution, & newspaper in the advocacy of woman's rights, pnblish: d New York, of whict. she was joint editress, George Francis Tram, whom sbe eulogized in high terms, advanced the money to start this per over twelve mouths since, aud she was glad to announce, she said, that ail the printers’ bill were paid and the paper was x complete success.

Now, the speaker avked. if Mr. Traip sbould be shut out from the columas of the Kevoluty nm * Vote s.—“No!” «No! and “That depends upon what he writes. Dr. Mary Watker he wants.” Miss Anthony furtuer continued her remarks, closimg with a general reterence to the politi- cul parties of the country, She thought when the Democrats did anything in favor of the eof woman, should receive the same applxu.¢ as if the assistancecame from Kepub- Kicans. Both parties should be regeriid with equal inendsbip. and ce expected to give op- presecd women their rights. Mrs Mary Simons spoke with cousiderabie emotion of the imposition which women had hitherto been compelled to sumut to, and was foliowed by Mrs. Stebbins, of Kansas, who gave @ history of the progress of women’ frags in Ansa, Dr. Winslow being called om, briefly addressed the meeting, and was followed by Mrs. Dr. Lockwood, who stated that the old Universal Franchise Association of the Dis- trict, which bad done mach good, hav: formally adjourned sin- di- by tbe president a: the last meeting, the present meeting had been called at the suggestion of a number of ladies, who favored an organization exclusively of ladies. The former association was composed of men and women, the result of which, it wes alleged, was that the men pad overstaughc. the women, and prevented them in a measare from being properly heard and treated. The Purpose, therefore, of assembling to-day was to organize a woman's association. This proposition met with some little dis- favor on the part of some of the ladirs, wh: thought nething could be done without the co- operation of the men, and were in favor of bovh sexes belonging to the association. Miss Anthony thought the proper petition to Present to Congress would be simply to say “we, the ladies of a certain place, desire the right of suffraze.” to which signatures should be obtained before being presented, der to put this idea hoped money woul expenses which would be incurred by regular. ly appointed f-male agents to cauvass the Dis- triet in favor of signatures to the petition by the ladies. Dr. Mary Walker moved that a committee be Sppointed to draw up & proper pian of organ- izauon, and to suggest suitable officers; the re- port of said committee to be submitted for the Dr. Walker thea pro- it was called nese said: “No, let him write what iscurbing that whenever I rise to sprak everybody else bas desire to.speak espe Miss Anthony though: an organization at this time would be premature. The meeting was called to make for future action, she iittee The License Questi ‘Sec 2.
