accomplished must commend themselves
to all who feel concerned for our pros

successful direction of enterprise and
capital in every department of labor.
- The Congress was oonqKMed of delegates
from eleven States, besides the District
of Columbia, embodying an array of
talent and seal unsurpassed in any prior
assemblage in thialoountiy, for the ad
vancement of the interests embraced
within the soope of its objects. They
effected a temporary organisation, and
adjourned to meet at Selma, Alabama,
ou the first Tuesday in ldeoember next,
at which time it is expeoted to perfect
and launch it upon its patriotic mission
of usefulness, as a permanent institution.
Having no merely sectional or partisan
aims to accomplish, it challenges the
cordial co-oj>eration of all, who, animat
ed by a similar emrit, desirp. that labor
should be dignified, enterprise stimula

appropriate and diversified ohannels.
The public may liaio au idea of the

commenced against Dr. Augier, because
tbe Dentor refused to pay illegal war
