Letter from Saaset Cor, tkat Breasjat Dews tae IIae Speeches by Dele g;ateaA Powerful Arraageaseat el tag I aa4- Preamble as Resolatieas. Philadelphia. April 7. The Irish National Uosventlon was called to order a little before eleven. Tbe chair asked if the committees on organization and resolutions were ready to report. Dr. O'iteilly announced that the com mittee on resolutions bad prepared a report, but was aot yet ready to vre- snt that report. CoL Michael Boland. chairman or tbe committee on organiza tion, said tne committee on organiza tion would not be ready to report until after the committee on resolutions had reported, as after a long debate tbe committee on organization bad not been quite able to agree on the number of officers for the National League, or its exact scheme of Government. Col. lioUnd therefore moved that when a recess be taken it be for two hours, to allow tbe committee on organization to perfect its report. Carried. The secretary Inen read, by unani mous consent, a communication from Hon. S-fci.Cox.of New York, congratu lating the convention on what it had achieved, and declaring that it was im possible for Ireland to remain under the British government on account of the commercial restrictions of tbe lat ter. There were 68.242 able-bodied men engaged in keeping the peace, while there were but 21.000 engaged in teach ing. The uncertainty of land tenure. and of the political statuauid tbe stand ing army of spies, go to render Ireland the worst governed country in the orld. Tbe agitation for liberty will go on, questions of extradition, citizens' rights, etc, lr considered by the conven tion, must be viewed in tbe light of the lessons of recent events. v .Edward O'Meagheri Conion .then moved that the thanks 'of this ooaven- tlon be tendered to lion. 8. 8.' Cox. Carried. On Mrs. Parnell s entrance she was heartily cheered. Father Boylan. from tbe county or (Javan, Ireland, addressed the convention amid much applause He said now John Bull would be put on one horn of the Irish dilemma and tbe landlord on tbe other, while Pat would milk the cow. He complimented the spirit in which the American press treated tbe Irish question. America bad given Irishmen employment, but Irishmen bad done America's hard est work on fields of both peace and war. Tbe entire convention arose to its feet and cheered Father Boylan tutnultnously. Cries for "Betts. the Episcopalian minister." who nominated Father Dor ney yesterday, were heard. Tbe chair man said Dr. Betts was not in tbe ball. Father Aguew, formerly of Scotland, now a delegate of the United Manhat tan League, addressed the convention, lie said the Irish in England and Scot land would have been the first to feel the effects of any intemperate action on the part of this convention, and be was glad to congratulate the delegates that their action so far had been wise and moderate. A telegram of sympathy from the ! Irishmen of Wilmiugton. North Caro- j Una, was read by the Secretary. It was moved that a rote of thanks be ten dered to Revs. Father Boylan and Agnew. Mr. Carney, of Massachusetts, said on this motion that every Scottish clergyman, had for many years endeav ored to denationalize eyery Irishman who crossed tbe channel. Carney, amid biases and ooof oaion, was pronounced out of order. The motion for a rote of thanks was then carried. At twenty minutes to twelve a recess was taken for two hours to await the reports of the committees. The convention was again called to order at 2r25 p. m, aud Dr. Chas. O'Beilly, chairman of the committee on resolutions, reported a preamble and resolution. The preamble is long and is a powerful arraignment of England's crimes of every conceivable character against Ireland as a nation and Irishmen as individuals. It proceeds as follows: Tbe Irish American people assembled In convention at Philadelphia submit to the intelligence and right reason of their fellowmen that tbe duty of the gov ernment is to preserve the lives of the governed, to extend their liberty, to protect their property." to maintain peace and oraer, to auow eacn portion of the people an equitable and efficient voice in the leclslatare and to promote the gen era! welfare by wise, just and humane laws. We solemnly dec! are, and it Is the nnauestlonsble history, and the univer sal knowledge of living men in testi mony thereof, that tne .ngiisn govern ment has existed in Ireland not to pre serve tbe lives of tbe governed but to destroy them, ' Eutire communities it has wantonly massacred by tbe sword. To asylums of terrified women it has deliberately applied tbe blazing torch. Into helpless towns It has discharged- deadly bombs and shells. - Through consecrated crypts. , where age and Infancy sought shelter, it has sent its bloody bucthers. .

Within two years it has massacred children, and a woman s body bas been the victim of its licensed ruffians. Tbero is no species of destructive at tacks, however insidious or violent, ancient or modern, rude or scientific whether directed against life or matter in any portion of the globe, tor wblcn its barbarities in Ireland have not tur There is no form 1 of retaliation to which despair or madness resort for which English cruelty in Ireland is not exclusively responsible. After rehearsing at length and in de tail England's crimes against Ireland as generalized in tbe foregoing first clause or tne preamble tne louowing resolutions are iormuiateo: lit it resolved by tbe Irish American people In convention assembled that the ; English government in Ireland, originating in usurpation, perpetuated by force, having failed to discharge any of the duties of the government, never having acquired the consent of the gov eminent bas no moral right wnstever to exist in Ireland, and that it is tbe duty of tbe Irish race throughout the world to sustain tbe Irish people in em ployment of all legitimate means to substitute for it national self-govern ment. Jitsoivea, That we pledge our unqualified and constant support moral and material to our countrymen in Ireland in their efforts to recover national self government, and in order more effectually to Dromote this obiect by tbe consolidation of all our resources and tbe creation of one responsible and authoritative body to speak for greater ire j ana in America; that all societies represented. In this convention and all that may hereafter comply with the conditions or admission be organized Into tbe Irish National League of America for the purpose of supporting the Irish National League of Ireland, or which Charles Stewart Parnell is 1'resident. - Rmolved. That we heartily endorse the noble sentiment of Bishop Butler, of himerict,- That every stroke or irors- ter s savage lash was Tor Irishmen a new proof of Parnell s worth, and an additional title for him to the confi dence and gratitude of his country men." , Resolved. That we sympathize with the laborers of Ireland in their efforts to improve their condition, and as we have sustained the farmers in their as sault upon the landlord garrison, we now urge npon the farmers iustioe and humane consideration for tbe laborers. la words for the em ployment of which an Irish member of Parliament was imprisoned we demand that farmers allow laborers "a fair day's wages for a fair dir'8 work." Resoloed, That as the manufactures of Great Britain, and tbe chief source of ber material greatness, is already declining under the influence of Amer ican competition, we earnestly counsel our countrymen in Ireland to buy noth ing in England which they can produce in Ireland or procure from America or France, and we pledge ourselves to pro mote Irish manufactures by encour aging their import into America, and to use our utmost endeavor, by placing statements of fact and discrimination in patronage, to persuade American tradesmen lrom keeping English goods on sale. Resolved, That an English ministry, ostentatiously liberal, has earned the contempt auddetestation of fair minded meu throughout the world by imprison ing more than a thousand citizens of Ireland without accmaUoa or trisaV a number of whom were noble hearted women, engaged in works of mercy among the evicted victims of landlord rapacity and English law. Tbe next resolution gives thanks to a number of Catholic clergymen who are named for providing homes for Irish immigrants into the United States, and adds that th people of Ireland are by tbe laws of God and nature entitled to live by their labor in their native land, whose fertile soil is abundantly able to nourish them, but since brutal govern ment compels large numbers to emi grate, it is tbe doty of their country men to warn them against snares of poverty in large cities and assist them in agricultural regions. Resolved, That tbe policy of the Eng lish Government in first reducing Irish peasantry to abject poverty and then sending them penniless to the United States, dependent upon American char ity is unnatural. Inhuman and an out rage upon tbe American Governmet and people. We respectfully direct the attention of the United States Govern ment to this iniquity, protest against its continuance and instruct officials who shall be chosen by this convention to present our protest to the. President of the United States and respectfully but firmly to urge upon the President that it is tbe duty of tbe Government of the United States to decline to sup port paupers whose pauperism began under and is tbe result of English mis govern men t, and to demand of England that she send no more of her paupers to these shores to become a burden upon tbe American people. The con cluding resolution is one of thanks to and confidence in tbe patriot organ whom it welcomes to Irish hearts and homes in America. Heading of resolutions was interrupt ed by occasional bursts of hearty ap plause. At the conclusion Chadwich moved that the resolutions be lead and adopt ed seriatim. Brown, of St. Louis, moved as a sub stitute that they be adopted as read. Finerly, of Chicago, was then recogniz ed, he said: -. t . I desire no more privileges than any one else. lie hoped the gentleman who had moved the substitute would have the decency to withdraw his motion, lie had beard sentiments in these reso lution, which he could not vote for without explanation He was opposed to putting a court plaster on a carbun cle." He appealed to Brown to with draw his substitute for the sake of Ire land and said that he (Finerly) would move to lay it on tbe table if it was not withdrawn. Brown should not be ac tuated by the desire for a partisan tri umph. Brown declining to withdraw, his motion Finerly motion to lay it on tbe table was put and lost amid cheers and hisses. Finerly is understood to be the spokesman of the Reactionists. Brown then explained that his mo tion was to expedite business. An ex cited debate ensued, a dozen men : try ing to get the speaker's eye. Doherty, of Boston, called the previous question on the adoption of resolutions. Sullivan, of Chicago, seconded it. Fifty men were on their feet at once, and Finely, of Chicago said : ."Are we going -to be gagged here f" Finerly asked if a motion to lay the motion for tbe previous question on tne tame was not in order. - The chairman said "No." Then I decidedly differ with the chair, said Congressman Finerly, ; and', ejacu lating We have no chance; its no use to try, and he sat down. - Tbe resolu tions were then adopted. - f s , The report of the committee on or ganization was theo read -as follows: Whsbzaa, In the opinion of citizens of America and" Canada Irish and of Irish descent, it ia needful for the pur poses hereiaafter set forth that the sinking -of all private- prejudice and secure jthis common end. do bind them selves together under Jhe name and title of the Irish.

According to the provlsons of the law, the registration books in the varl- ous wards of the city closed Friday evening at sundown, ten days before theelecUoband tbe result of the regis tration, aa-gathered from the books, show that about 450 voters of tM city ' failed to register, and are' therefore de barred from voting on election day. Of this 450, about 150 are .whites, while the remaining S50. are colored voters. This loss of votes from the colored popular tlon. Is a death blow to the hones of the o'ppbsition' party, and seals the doom of. any man who has or may have had an idea "of running against Maxwell,' the nominee. .

Ia this calcula tion, the entire colored vote Is conceded to Maxwell's opponent, onlv because we are disposed to be liberal, but as a matter of course Maxwell will carry a good support lrom the colored people and; will poll a number of colored votear - - At; appeared to be pretty well conced ed on tbe streets yesterday that Max well Is too far In tbe lead to be over taken, and there was a marked subsi dence, in the talk about running an Independent candidate to oppose, and all seem to have been diverted from the race for mayor to the aCiermatiic ticket. hichis now the all absorbing topic for street corner politicians. Maxwell's election is a foregone conclusion and the i opposition yesterday appeared to become resigned to that fact. Mayor De Wolfe remained in statu otto, and the day brought forth no new develop ments from that quarter. It was the general opinion, however, that be either has, or Is about to abandon the idea of allowing his friends to put him up, for from the looks of things now, tbe man who gets knocked down Is going to be knocked pretty hardtnd Capt De Wolfe, we surmise baa pa liking for treatment of thhtsort,! 0.1 & ii.il. .

The offi cers have not yet decided; upon, what sort of a steeple to build In place of the old! one. Some of the congregation waat the new steeple to be not quite so high, others want just the same height while others want it to be 20 feet taller, making it in all . 200 feet high. It is likely that the wish of the Istter will be adopted.

Louis Scbenck, the colored man who is now serving out a sentence in the guard house, had a festive time about a week since under the guise of a consta ble.' He went to Alexandrians and arrested two colored men telling them that be was none other than Sam Cald well, tbe colored constable of Charlotte township, and that he was going to have them put in jail. After having completely awed the men, he told them that be would let them off for 80 apiece, and on their paying the money he re leased them. Still passing off as con stable Caldwell, he - arrested a colored man) near town, and offered to release him for $5. The prisoner asked to go to Mr Frank Snider's for the money and the I inexorable constable agreed to accompany him When near Mr Sni der's the darkey broke ' and ran and Scbenck fired three shots at him. This is Cald weirs story aoout the matter and hesays he knows It to be a fact He Is going to prosecute his clever im person tor and has already taken neccessary legal steps. .

In making type, variations that might kbe allowed in the finest machinery would render type useless. It is very rarely that type furnished by two different foundries can be used together without a great deal of trouble, even though they should try to make it after tne standard. - We read onee in a while of a wonderful piece of cabinet or masoic containing ten, twenty or 50,000 pieces, the maker having spent.montbs or even years of laber in producing it; and the people go to see it aa a curiosity. But the most elaborate and carefully fitted piece of work of this ' kind ever made does not compare for minuteness of de tail and accuracy of fitting with that which the printer doea every day. The man who does the first is looked upon as a marvel ofxskill, and if a hundred of his pieces are put in wrong side up or tented, it is not noticed in the general effect, but if .a printer, in fitting ten times aa many pieces together in a sin- ge day. pots one the wrong way, every dy sees it 'and m amazed at the "stupid carelessness of those printers.' . ..; --I- f ,.!. 1 1 . 1 1 KtSaageel Frotoeliaa Ida Iaaoeoaee.
