HARTFORD, Conn., Oct. 28, 1869. Quite satisfied that the woman's rights move- ment has attained @ position among the questions of the day from which it cannot be thrown by its oppo- hents without the fullest discussion and a thorough agitation, the leaders of it have entered with much earnestiess into the organization of State societies, It is now wafe fo entrust the work of prosietyz- ing indifferent females in country places to tho local magnates and presidentesses of sewing circles fayorable to the cause of the Revolu- tfon, ‘The first movement in this direction was made, very properly, Iu this land of isms, and with the resuli anticipated, The Rhode Island Conven- ton, held tn Providence lately, demonstrated ¢hy wisdom of forming local organizations, and pow al) female Yankeedom is up and alive for Work and dis- unction, The Convention of the Nutmeg state, which assembled herg this morning in the Opera House, promises to be quite success{ul, in pomt ar numbers at least, Due fact that the fery radical, q, L, Garrison; the charming Susan B.

A harmonium stood open near (he footlghis, aud some imembers of the irre- pressible tHutchiags family stood shivering in the flats. A sound us of a hundred manly women, wrestling bebtod the scenes tu Keep ‘theimsetves froin freezing kept the atteucion of the audiences tixed on the Severai places of entrée. Tue scenery on the stage represented # quiet pastoral village, and thig was adjusted from time co time by the manager of the play, Who, in dreadfui fearof chilblains, incessantly “washed bis hands With invisible goap in imper- ceptibie water,” Mr, Hookse sald only a few words in calling the Convention to order, and then introduced the Kev. Hesky WARD beeches, Who would jead them in player, Mr, Beecher tuen advanced to the desk and uttered a brief tavocation to the Deity, in which he seked with considerable emphasis for tie develop- meat of His cause atong men, and prayed for wives and inothers. fle did lot mention woman in the prayer, and this omission, whether torentiona! or accidental, seemed io Lave been iully noted by the lewaing ladies. ‘rho prayer being ended, the CHAIRMAN stated that this Was not a convention of delegates, vut was open iO ail, although, of course, it was under the misuagement of the Irieuda of woman suifrage in Conueoticut, A motion Was then made thal persons frou other States who wished to could speak from tue platform or occupy seats on it, aud this was carried With two faint “ayes,” and the opposition, if auy there was, did not dave to show its "0es."” No one seemed to be unduly excited or depressed over this Vole, bor, indeed, did the assembled sisters, the platform, who smiled a visching approval, evince the least euthustasm in any of the proceedings. ‘fhe work of effecung a permanent organization occupied a few seconds. Rev, os. J. Burton, a somewhat celebrated preacher of the Gospel as it 1s in teec! aud @ bright and shiniog light among the faituful in Hartford, was appoinved president of the Conven- ton, and the jan, ‘hing Mrs, Davis, of Providence; J. Ward How, 4 wumings, of tue Methodist Epis- copai Church, aud alarge number of othera were added as vice presidents. M Antaony @ad Mrs, Burleigh Were elected as secretaries, Mr, Bunvon then delivered an address, but said notiung of consequence. His tone of voice and man- ner, a8 well as the matter of his speech, were just in the style of Sunday scuvol addresses, and fell ex- ceedingiy fat. After talking for haif aa hour he Said that having been promoted to the distinguished position of president of the Connecticut Woman's Surfrage Convention he expected to be regarded for the future as dead right ou the subject. ‘She CHAIRMAN Chen nominated Jonn Hooker, Ellen Burr, Olympia Brown, Mrs. John Hooker and a num- bor of others as a Committee on Kesotutions, lence gave consent to their appointment. Evi- Y neither the question nor the weather was warn Chough for a vote. While the committee were absent, Which was just ive minutes, oue of the ex- craclaung Hutchings family attacked tae bariuo- nium, and, with the assistance of a gushing old lady, sang & mild and inoffensive, because unintelitgible, song. People applauded to warm their bands, The jas( thump oa (he Larmonium, the expiriog wali of the songsters, waa the signal for waiting commit- tee, Who emerged from the right centre with a siight chasse movement, handed the reverend chairman a Set of Anished resolutions, and then retired as they came to aulver in the fats with the other super- numeranes, The following are the RESOLUTIONS, Rosolved, That there ia no consideration whatever that makes the right of aurage valuable to men, or that takes it the duty or the interest of the nation to concede it to men, that does not make ft valuable to women and the duty and interest of the nation to concede it to wom Resolved, That the ballot will bring to woman « higher edu- gatiou, larger industrial opportunities, a wider theid for thougitt and action, a sense of responsibilty tu her relations to the public welfare, and, {u place of mere compialsance and Cattery, the higher abd triver respect of men, Resdived, That political affairs, tnvolving nearly all those questions that relate to the welfare of tho nation and the Drogressof society towards @ perfect Christian etvilization, ought to tnterest deeply every intelligent mind and every pat: riotic heart; and while women love their couutry aud the ganse of Christian progrers no less than men they ought to have the same opportunity with men to exert @ political power in their beait. Resolved, Tuat in the alarming prevalence of public dis- honesty wail private immorality which the present forces of public and private virtue are proving wholly control It is our firm conriciion that women, edu oxted to the responsibiittios of a participation with men in political rights, would bring to the ald of virtuous men « now and powerful element of good, which canuot be spared, and for whieh there can be no substitute, Resolved, That In advocating the opening to woman of this larger aphere we do not undervalue her relations as @ fe and mother, than which none can be mora worthy of @ tris Tpman's love and pride; but it is only by w (ull development of ber facuities and a wide range (or her thought that she cau become the (rue companion of an intelligent husband and tbe Wise and inspiring educator of her childrens; whiie mere domestic Ife furnishes no occupation to the great number of women who never marry, a1 very inadequate one to those it middlo age, with large experience and ripe wisdom, find their children grown up around them and oo longer ued” ‘ng their car 7 perior right in the busband to the children whom the wife has borne, or & right on the part of the husband to the property of the wife, beyond the right given to her in his property, and alb laws which hold that > aad wife do Dot atand in all reapecta the relation of ht to be abrogated, and the per- wife establisued. ights we juality of position ded by the Creator an the ultimate believe to perfection of aaie when man in o1 our likenes dominion been a part of ou fora perfect Christian society, In which aa Apostie saya “there is ither bond oor Cree, there ia wether male nor femal On motion of Mrs, ©.

Mrs. SEVERANCE wae then called on for an essay, Advancing to the tabie tn the front of the stage she wat down beside it and proceeded to read from an immense brief of manuscript, She said that woman could not think standing, and that was ber excuse. Waen she bad said that ali that was true or new in her carefully prepared and elaborate essay on woman suffrage waa uttered, MIS3 ANTHONY WINDS UP. Having given herself time to reflect on what she ‘a8 About to say by some remarks on the excessive nd her “chattering teeth,’ Misa Anthony cou- lated the men and women present 09 the large 2 and prophesied great tuings from the deliberations of the Convention. Tae ume was hear at hand, she said, when tne present leaders of the woniau suitiage movement wili not have to bear tue brunt of the fight. God sond it soon, she said, for she ured. ‘The question of the right of women the land to the suffrage, wach they discuss, was progress. ing in importance and was now fairly before the people of the state, When people talked of the hopeieseness of the movernent the position of the colored peopie adorded a ready iiustration of their shallowness aud want of fore- sigit.

REMARKABLE PHENOMENON IN A GRANITE QUARRY. —The rock in Mr. Fiynt's granite quarry at Monson, Mass., has been viaying some curious treaks lately, Several weeks since, @ sheet of rock one foot thic! and fifty feet square lifted itself into the air and broke into pieces with a noise like that of cannon. The expianation seems to be that the rock to that depth had been expanded by the heat, aud the fre- quent passage over tt of loaded teams caused it to become briitie, as does tron or steel by long ham- mering, and at last it had not tenacity enough to hold itin tte bed. Another remarkable phenomenon Was where the rock moved up hill of itseif, while ‘et undetached at one end. A strip of rock, 354 feet long by tive feet deep and five feet wide, was split by wedges from the main rock, and immediately it began Ww move J nil, being free at the upper end, though the inclination was more fhanone foot in twenty. This rock moved one and one-half inches, and another strip, 164 feet long, moved haf an tnch— nearly all while we were present.—amherst (Mass.) Student, ee . MARRIAGES AND DEATHS. mith, 1—total, 18.
