The defense waived examination as far

Columbia , Illinois , Kansas and Louisiana
to the number of 75. Among them were
Fred Douglas aud Bishop Green of Ohio.
The cDnvention comprised a fine body of
men , nnd a determination was expressed
to prevent it being iuod for political pur
poses. At 10 o'clock Rev. 0. S. Smith
of Blootnfield , Illinois , in a stirring ad

ilobt. Jackaou , of Pittsburg , was elected

inated for tompurary chairm.in. but the
convention approved the nomination of
Jackson.
Rav. 0. S. Smith , in the course of hia
remarks , spuakiug of the colored race ,
said :
"Our ( situation ia peculiar : wo have
enemies within aa well as without. wo
are measurably hampered and handi
capped by a class of aelf constituted
loader wuo can BOO no cause for alarm so
long ui they are well provided for. Lot
the sun shine brightly on their aide of
the street , it makes no difference how
hard rain may boat on the pathway of
other * . I regret the necessity of giving
an open rebuke to these. A foyr colored
ouice-holdora have been bending their
energies to weaken the influence of this
meeting. " He said the time had come
for the colored people to organise
amongst themselves to secure their
common righta aa citizens. Ho said :
' I do not apeak of organization in the
relation to political parties , but with ref
erence to thosn mtcrestd which diro&tly
concern us. Time after time have we
boon told that we must take cara of our-
oelven. It is true we are poorly equipped
either for u long or diuigurous vuya o.
The Bupretio court stripped us of one of
our sails when it threw overboard thu
civil righti bill. Still wo Invo ono oar
and ballast , a vote and the balance of
power. With this in an organized otito
wo can moaaureably comu up to the ta k
of 'taking care of ourselyer. ' Uo said
colored people muot demand that their
children have tbo same opportunities for
education aa whites , and ' 'tha people
cannot afford to alloy custom and condi
tion , the od'sprini ! of moro piojudicc , to
give birth to a cUca of shiftless and reck
less yautha. 1 tremble for the peace and
future or thia nation whi'ti I rnn brought
to reflect on the unlavorablo environ
ment of the young colored men of this
country BO easily inclining them in cuso
of a conflict between labor and capital to
unite with communistic and eooinliit'o
olomonta and exert their onorgics to make
destruction moro destructive. "

thnnwith _ an American , ho had a right to

where ho could iho cheapest. This
WAR nn approved doctrine of political econ
omy , otidtho plainest teachings of justice
It individualized man. It begat iittthom
a spirit of independence , turni'U their
oyca from government to themselves , and
freed the boundary line between govern-
muntal power and personal rights. It
vuis a question only of time when under
thoj present policy the American would
entirely tlinppuar from the high seas.
The oceans v\oro free to all. Every lip-
plo of the waters o.i the ana ehoro was
au invitation to enjoy the
wealth of foreign nations , nml every
stormy wave that beat on the crngs spoke
in thundering denunciation of this policy
thai would lock America out of the mar
kets of the world. [ Loud npplauao. ]
Hod speed the day when Una divinu
thought "man's brotherhood to mini"
would succeed in degrading and humilia
ting oiio of luttioml isolation and foreign
ttocluiion. What as the ottVct of the
fuinouo system on the farmers ? It in
creased the price of all articles which en
tered into hit daily consumption , and
this increasu annually reached the sum
of 4,000,000OCO. The protective tariff
had nlrendy robbed America of one-half
the inurkoU of tlio old world. India
mm furnished England with wheat. The
effeotcf the mnikuton Uuited States with
in uino months had been a decline in the
exportation of American cereals vf more
than 4,000.000 ; and what had gene
dawn in Chicago to lees than 80 conta.
This dLVi'lepment of the wheat produc
tion in India was entirely the result of
the protective policy in America. "I
iay to farmers of America , the prospect
bflforo you la not encouraging now.
With elevators , granaries and warehouses
all full , the old crop unsold , with n
vaat Hold greening to the coining
harvest , with a crop unexcelled in
Indln , with splendid promises among all
wheat growing nations , and the price of
wheat at ICDB than eluhty cents , this re
sult will bo inevitable that the price of
wheat before January next will not p y
the price of production , and corn raised
on the wottorn prairies again will bo
burnt for fuel. In that day the farmers
will bo beggara in the midst of their own
plenty , paupers by the side of their own
gathered sheaves. There in absolutely
no relief except in making foreign markets -
kots for agriculture. IIo went on to
urguo that the effect of the system was
not beneficial to the manufacturing
intercats , but on the contrary
lotrimental in preventing them securing
Voo raw material. "Oh if I could burn
nto the brains of the manufacturers of
\niorica ono toutonco , " ho burnt forth ,
' 'it would be : 'Turn from this constiut
iitroapeotton to tlio nations of UiO'world ' ; '
down with the wnlla out to the sen.
t'horo are two billion people who want to
utv what you make , lliao up to the

nstriunonta of husbandry and the tools

oodts unless you take thoira. Let your
arilf disappear and then , O ,
manufacturers , your attention
ivill bu diverted from homo mirkots to
ho goncroua rivalries of the foreign
rado in which a wealth will oomo to you
if which you do not dream to-day. "
Applause , ] Ho then discussed the ttir-
ff question aa ullocting the rates of wages
or labor , declaring so far an labor was
concerned , the fruits of protection were
wont penury and starvation. Protection
lover would permit labor to Imvo n full
eluro to that which was entitled the profits
of cipifal. If employ era had not the wu-
doni to laarn the truth , ho hoped this ag-
tation would enlighten the workers , and
that thov by their votes would
rcgulato the business to the natural law
of trado. Mr. liurd went on
to ssk if thcro was anything in the Moi-
