These meetings are tlie commencement of an intended organization to assert certain principles which shall secure to women, married and unmarried, the right of pro perty, of sutlrage, and all others, in iact enjoyed by the. other sex, in .the political and social compact. There is said to be much talent displayed by the female speak ers on these occasions, and that rare speci mens of eloquence. were presented toad miring auditories. This is not fair. Beauty alone is potent to rule ; but when we have beauty and eloquence. combined, what will become of us? AVe may as well "tave in'' and .. - . ' , "Take the distafi with a hand as patient As e'er did Hercules !" At the last Convention, Mrs Sand ford, of Michigan, is represented not as a "screamer," as some of her sex have been libellousljr styled, but as one ki who en chained the attention of the audience, and who was eloquent throughout." Among other good things she said :, " From Sein erasis to Victoria, woman had always been found equal to the position she was ealled upon to occupy. She said, give us the rights of property, the right of exercising the elective franchise, and the other rights claimed. We can be as dutiful and obedi ent as wives, mothers and daughters, even if we do hang the wreath of domestic hap-, piness on the Eagle's talons." Wilming ton Commercial. ) SI Servants. It was an observation of Elwcs, the" noted miser, ' that if you keep one servant, your work will be done; if vou keep two it will be half done: and if you .keep three, you may doit yourself." To Kiss or not to Kiss The N- Y. Sunday Despatch says : The theatrical and critical world is divided with regard to the propriety of a dead Romeo kissing a living Juliet. It has arisen from the fact of Mr Anderson, when dead as Romeo, having returned, with a Vigorous smack, the salute of Fanny Wallack. when she kissed his corpse. It was done so heartily that the audience tittered tlvroughout, and the gentlemen in the upper tiers were al most boisterous in their expression oflun." Of course, the temptation was so strong that Anderson couldn't resist it. From the N. V. Freeman's Journal BISHOP HUGHES' SPEECH FOR IRELAND. In the few remarks I am about to make, I shall be obliged to the ineetiug if , they will not manifest either their feelings ol approbation or disapprobation now at what 1 shall say. I did not, until quite recent ly, expect to address you at all. I have no preparation for doing so, aud any inter ruption ou the part of the audience, might materially disturb - the current, of my thoughts. . , From the moment I heard the news, however, brought by the last arrival, I made up my mind that if there should be a meeting to-night I should attend it- Not that my presence can have the slightest ef fect one way or tlie other upon the mo mentous question which is now opened on the other side of the water, but at the same time there may be a crisis in the history of a nation which will authorize and almost require one in my station to depart from what may be considered the ordinary and legitimate routine of his oflicial duties. I think that such a crisis and such a period has arrived in the history of Ireland. By the last news, it appears that the op pressor and his victim stand face to face The same news that brought us this intelli gence, taught us also that the oppressor had the weapon of destruction ready lifted, but as to the defence, or the means of de fence, on the part of the victim, the news said nothing. This, then, is a solemn period in the history of the Irish people. This is not a mere passing feeling, or an ebulition of passion, but it is a momentous question fur Liberty, for Ireland, for Humanity. Liberty, Ireland and Humanity are at slake, and if Liberty, Ireland and Hu manity have friends on this side ot the Ocean, now is the time for them to stand forward. I come among you, gentlemen, not as an advocate of war. It would illy accord with my profession. I come' not as a disturber of the peace of nations. My office is properly to be a peace maker, when it is possible; but I come in the name of what is dearer in the name of sacred Humanity; and I come to offer my feeble might between the executioner and his victim. I come not, if you will, to put arms into the hands of men by which they may destroy the lives of others, but I come to give my voice and my mite to shield the unprotected bosoms of the sons of Ireland. It is not for me to say anything calculated to excite your feelings, when, as you per ceive, I can scarcely repress my own. That crisis is pending. It is not "by mul titudinous assemblages alone, it is by the force -of the soul, that spirit of sacrifice which marks the course of men who are energetic and in earnest, that you may even ftom these remote shores, from this hall aid the cause of your loved c.ountry. It is unnecessary, gentlemen, and is surely from mc that you should hear any thing of the antecedents of this awful con test. It is enough that Ireland is nominal ly and only nominally a subjugated nation. This is enough: that in all such relations the first duty is on the part of the Govern ment to protect, give good laws and just government; and when these are withheld, will you tell me that nation is Vound to allegiance? Not at all. "Allegiance is a reciprocal attribute It is a part and it is a part which ought to correspond with another part which England has withheld good government, just laws, and the pro tection of life, and if I stood in the pre sence of my God it would not change my opinion at this moment, that the Govern ment of England is justly responsible for the death by starvation of one million of Irishmen. Then, if that be the case, and if they had it in their power to "protect their people for a government is not an ironhearted corporation it should have a human heart somewhere, and with that human heart look upon its subjects or citi zens as the beings which it should protect with both paternal and maternal rare.- So Tong as England hoarded up that food- so long as she allowed the men who cultivated that soil to die by the roadside with starva tion while Lord John Russel sent his charity-box round the world to keep the Irishmen from starving all allegiance was forfeited. But while the Government itself ihus treats, its people, it will put the bayonet to their throats if they aspire to the privilege of freemen. - Now, gentlemen, I present myself here not as a Bishop of the Catholic Church; I present myself here not as an Irishman, for 1 am a citizen of the United States, and I would do nothing contrary to the laws of the country which does protect me; but whatever those laws may be in the abstract, and however statesmen may define limits, I know something which, perhaps, they do not know. I know there is a some thing in the human breast which knows nothing of their codifications there is a responsive feeling in the human breast which, wherever, it sees reluctant, men bowed in slavery, then that sentiment, which never studied . national law, is waked. Whatever calls it forth in this manner brings with it the most earnest and deepest emotions of the human heart. This I know. It is in this feeling that at this moment blood may be flowing in torrents that the butchering soldiery are revelling in telling each .other how they have executed exploits that would disgrace the Indians of our backwoods. And who is responsible for this? They say it is the Irish of course. They plant thorns, they put thistles in the bed of the people, and if the people complain, if they are not as tranquil as an obedient child, they exclaim what a dreadful subject vou are! Tliev will not allow the people who sleep upon the bed the privilege of making it. It is this which marks already the inci pient decav. Yes, I contend for it, that a nation so regardless of the laws of God, of 1 the laws of justice a nation so devoid of the feelings of humanity as England has proved herself to be, must be a nation al ready waneing towards its sunset; and who can tell whether the crimson of that sun set may r.ot be deep and bloody as that which they have prepared for many a land? Gentlemen, I may have given way to my feelings somewhat. It docs not be come me to speak the language of passion. I would state to you now, briefly, the nature of the subjects under your consid eration. There is no possible ground on which, except on the construction of the partisan judges, to accuse the Irish nation of rebellion; and I assert that, tor the rea son that the violation of former treaties had left them free at any period at w hich the Irish people thought it possible to throw off their allegiance and resume their national independence. But can any one say that the Irish nation has rushed into this con test ? The oldest man among us well re members that their pleadings on their knees are older than he It was only yesterdav, as it were, since they allowed the greater proportion of their subjects in that country the privilege of worshipping their God as their consciences directed. Since that person, you have perceived how one great and immortal leader, with a pa tience worthy of Fabius of old, waited year after year in order that Britain might do Ireland justice. Yeu have perceived how his hopes were disappointed how he was laughed at because he fought with words aivl not with bayonets so that no alterna tive has been left, and now that the crisis has come, I take my stand with the unfor tunate and oppressed. And I will say that the policy that has precipitated this issue on our side would not have been mv policy. I believe that all the powers of reason had not been exhausted. I am a man of peace, not a man of var. I believe in the efficiency of other means. -f But be that as it may, all that is now passed, and to speak of counsel at this moment would be to speak in Paris when the regency was offered too late. What then remains, gentlemen? It remains that the friends of the three great departments I have spoken ot, with the friends of Liberty, of Ireland, and of Humanity, that they shall rally to sustain the struggle of a few brave and noble spirits against the most corrupt pow er that ever desolated a christian land. How we can aid them I know not. You have pronounced on that question. You have selected men to be your agents, and" in them you have unbounded confidence. Let no man have the temerity to shake the confidence of another man in that Direc tory, because it is only in absolute confi dence that there can be success. This point being settled, aid them as you can. My contribution shall be for a shield, not for a sword but you can contribute for what you choose. Now, gentlemen, it is not for me to speculate on chances. If I were to speak my own opinion, I fear 1 should damp the ardor with which your hearts are throbing. I look upon the' die a? cast. I look upon it that many a brave and gallant man ot Irish birth, and who love Ireland as you do, shall bite the dust before this contest is over. . That is my anticipation. But at the same time I dare not L shall not fore stall the issue of events which a mighty Providence holds in its own hands. But one thing. I do know, that if the men of Ireland of this day are worthy of their fatherland, they will do two things one is, that in the battle they will be as brave as their nation: the other is,' that after the battle is over, they will be as humane. Let them be brave in battle, but before and after it, let them be as gentle as if the heart of woman throbbed in their bosoms. Let them sustain themselves but four weeks, until the news of this struggle shall have spread abroad, and then gold will flow in upon them from the four quar tcrs of the heavens. But I speak not of all parts of the world at the same time. I speak of our own coun tay : for unhappily, in times past, owing their origin to. British iniquity, the page of fiction and the page of history colored against the 'Irish, prejudices against that nation have existed here. But whatever it may be in other respects, the American people can not bear the idea of people be- mg starveu to ueain. i ueir uoumjr jmw.- all been born within gunshot ofTara HalL I know something of human nature, though nothing of politics, and I know that this nation will give out money as. the mother; gives out her. milk to the suckling on her:-, bosom. I do not know what is to be done.. I have unbounded confidence in your Di--rectory. What you have to do is,, however, con stant, persevering action, and. iC all. th& people of Ireland axe swept oft the surface of the 4a nd, commence to raise a bcttc:; generation, and then we shall see if proud) bloated England will still perse veue in keeping her foot on the neck of ber op-w pressed sister. What then do we expect of iFekiBdJ Al$ that I expect is, that since the British, power has brought the crisis to the door o" the Irish, they shall act worthy that thero shall be no coward among them, that thet shall fight like men, brave as the lion iri the battle,' and gentle and humane as th dove after the battle is over.. In the language of the poet:. When other stars shall sink in the ryeg of night. Her's shall begin to peer eTer bright. As it were the lamp of God himself.1 ' These are observations which I have nofc intended, but which have presented, them selves to mc while speaking. My object in coming here was to show you -that in my conscience I have no scru ples in aiding this cause in every wav wor thy a patriot and christian. ' Atufe na,ving shown this, at the same time that I dis claim being a man of war, and at the sam$ time that I assure you that that past o tho question is one in which I did not sympa thise, until all else was deemed to be ex hausted, I take my stand ajs an.
