WORMING MEN'S MEETING}
•FETCHES BT MAJ. A. H. CALHOTTC AND COL.
JOHN APPLETABD — HOME EXPLANA
TIONS—NO ORGANIZATION.
A meeting of the working men of
Columbus was held at tho Court-house
last night for the purpose of organizing
an association for iho promotion of the
interests of the mechanics and working
men of Columbus.
Mr. J. 0. Porter was called to tho
Chair, and Mr. T. J. Jackson requested
to act as Secretary.
The Chairman expressed thanks for the
honor oonferred, but stated he was not
aware of the objects of the meeting,
Col. John Apployard, a prime mover and
getter-up of the meeting, explained. Its
object was to effect a permanent organi
zation, and to secure for the raechanies
an influence in the municipal government
by eleoting as Aldermen one of their
number from each ward.
By special invitation, Maj. A. B. Cal
houn, of the Enquires, was present and
addroAseseed the meeting substantially hb
follows:
My Friends : I always feel that I am
honored when called ou to address tho
mechanics or workingmen, snob as I now
see Leforo me. Mr. Apployard has stated
fully the object of your meeting, and
while all my sympathies aro with every
movement that has the elevation or pro
tection of labor for its object, I think it is
the part of wisdom carefully to weigh the
motives announced as yourpurposo by tho
gentleman who proceeded me, viz : The
nomination of municipal officers, one-half
of whom must belong to the calling yon
represent. While I grant our city can
never rise to the dignity and importance
which all wish her, without your efforts,
and the efforts of men like you, yot I con
sider capital tho twin to which you are
attached, aud by a bond so strong and
vital that any effort to sever it must result
in ruin to both.
The public records are full of the ruins
of political organizations founded in the
interest of callings aud cliques. I grant
the intelligent mechanic is the peer of
any man, and if ho have the qualifica
tions, as the majority have for office, his
vocation should not stand in the way of
his election, and, reversely, his profes
sion should not in fairness bo urged as a
reason for his selootiou. (Cheers.) I
grant the importance of tho pending
municipal election, but I serionsly ques
tion the selection of uny of onr city offi
cers for the reason that they belong to
any profession or calling. It would be
unjnst in that large and most respectable
class interested in the ootnmeroo of the
city to urge nominations from their own
ranks simply booause they are merchants;
aod this would apply to the learned pro
fessions, the churches, the secret socie
ties, and overy interest roprosentod by
two or more men. Wo wont good a gov
eminent, for I feel we are in tho dawn of
that day that will light Columbus to un
drenrapt prosperity.
Iu selecting theHO men, we should judgo
of ihelr ability to niauage tho city’s busi
uess by the energy and success manifested
iu their own callings. We should seo to
it that they are honest, moral and under
tho tongue of good repute; and having
found such men, we should not ask his
calling, ao that it be honorable. Having
the good of our city at heart, wo should
not ask the land of a man’s birth, the al
tar at which he kneels, his political ten
dencies, his calling or his wealth. Is he
houoit? Is he a man wo feel proud to
know f Does he manage bis own business
well? lias ho tho interest of our city at
heart ? These questions beiug answered
the affirmative, we may rest assured
that whether mechanic or bankor, laborer
merohaut, doctor or factor, lawyer or
railroad man, preaobor or planter, wo
shall have tho very man wo need. Worth
makes the man, and want of it tho fel
low; so worth must be the test to which
you submit men. [Cheers.]
I have spokeu thus candidly. -Did I
cater to auy feeling of opposition to any
other interest, which I do not think yon
have, I should bo unjust to you und iuy
self. Our city is too small to admit of
divisions; let us unite for the purpose of
making her greater. Our river will soon
afford navigation throughout the year,
aud our carryiug facilities will increase
by the completion of roads in oourso of
construction. Let us do all we can to
briug labor hero, by respecting it. Lot
ns induce capital to seek investment here,
by protecting it; and us good men, let uh
pormit no prejudice, personal or partisan,
to work counter k to the public good.
[Cheers.] •
Mr. Apployard followed Major Calhoun
iu a fluent and well-considered address.
During the course of which ho took oc
casion to say that there was great danger
tothe city from the speculators aud sharks
who were preparing to seize the commons
aud wrest thorn from tho purpose for
whieh they were intended, dwellings for
the citizens, school purposes and so ou.
Major Calhoun interrupted by saying.
With Mr. Appleyard’s permission, I beg
that lit. will state who these people are,
specify them that all honest men may
know them.’* “I do not wish to specify,
but I have looked into this thing and know
what I say." Mr Appieyard then denounced
the North and South road nml ridiculed
the idea of its late President being ou
committee to soo Governor Smith about
resuirectiug it.
After Mr. Appieyard sot down Major
Calhoun read from the Mayor’s report
showing that tho Council had now
jurisdiction over the oomiuonB, which, by
an act of the Legislature were placed in
the bauds of a commission for city pur
poses. He showed that the charge of
fraud in the ooustruotion of the North
and South road was a mistake. Ho came
here with friends from tho North iu
terested in that road, and he know how
it wss built and the money expended
honestly; and while he admitted the lack
of railroad knowledge, in the origins
ton of tho road, he openly deolared
they did the best they could, and that an
investigation would exonerate them from
these charges. As to Captaiu Blanchard,
the late president of the road, he could
■late that gentleman had nothing to do
with it till it bad fatopped construction,
and then he did it against bis will.
After some desultory remarks, the meet
ing adjourned, without permanent organi
zation, till uext Friday night.

A Street Spouter•
A mao, a stranger iu this section, was
on Broad street yestorday morning, who
raved and frothed at the mouth in the
attempt to get a crowd around him. We
could not discover exactly what ho was
ranting about, it seemed a miscellaneous
mixture of all sorts. He told a gontle-
raan he canto from heaven. We must say
ho is a loug way from his starting point,
lie got one negro to swear that he would
never again smoke or ohew tobacco, driuk
whiskey, lie or steal. Tho darkey crossed
liis name to tho pledge in the back of the
book aud tho ranter gave the little volume
to him. It was full of pictures. The
preacher, or what-not displayed nothing
to sell, that wo heard of.
