Improvements in Parting Gold and Silver.

A very small representation of those favorable to “equal rights,” specifically so, called, met again yester- day morning at Cooper Institute, for the purpose of dis- cussing the subject of woman's right of suffrage and other topics growing easily and naturally out of the Declaration of Independence and the Star Spangled Ban- ner. In addition to those immediately interested a considerable uumber of ladies and geuticmen gathered in the bail, attracted there by idte curiosity and a esire to hear what might be said on the much vaunted sub- by worthy and fluent advocates who had grown gray and petulant in tho cause... Before the doors were opeved, which was. delayed byt by the alleged hard fact of the full rental not having been paid in time, a bevy of women dressed in “queer” costume, resembling male attire as closely as their boasted rights do those of the Lerma sex, were seen with bold and manly bearing standing in clnsiers and discussing questions of great moment, to the delight of many censorious and critical spectators. These finally merged in the small crowd and made their way to prom! nent a io ate hall, oes yee with their aveing tae speeches on the tipend of be Jaunched forward at ang tavarahle os ap i the ag ceedings.

The meeting was called to order at eleven o'clock by Mrs. Scsan B, Antnoyy, who cecupied the chair. She submitted the A adirrt ‘and resolution before presented as containing objects of the meeting and the topics of discussion, ‘THE RESOLUTIONS.
