The most striking fea tu.t? of the talk between ?1? legates, and of the con? ferences of the friend1? of tin- M-veral candidates for GovciiMir, is the readiness with windi everybody admits that the party is in d? sp. rat. straits.

This idea ia father to the spontaneous and tiowsonuwh.il formidable movement in favor of Charles Francis Adams, tin* apparent ?Icplitioii of th? Loriiig forci-x, and the wild talk about taking (jen. Hirth it lioldly from the anns of the Democ? racy and making him a K?-publi?-an ?-andid.it?? for ?Uov?riior, instead of a 1>< inociatie candidate f??r LuiiUiiant-liovernor. Whether this re??ignition of the licicssitics of the ease will stand before partisan n-cjudices, when it conns to the balloting, remains to be Ml ii.

K MI EH.NCiS. At each of Out m-veral headquarters (>i?en meetings were held this t-veniug, and spec?, he? were made to eacourage Oft strong and strengthen the weak. The hire nu n Called txliiiv.

All of thc?se geutleinen deilared Mr. Kico th? ir iirst ?hoice, bit expressed their wil hnguoHB to accept the voice of the Convention. Mr. Kiuil?.ill in.i'ii boin? sly hint? at Mr. Atlau.s, win? li w? re ;?i??.1h?ii1i ti. He wanted no hybrids at the head of llie ticket, he said. If the Republican ship is to li o down, it must go down with colors llyiujf, ?Vc. Though litrge, the Rice me'ting was not conspicu? ously enthusiastic, in comparison with the Luring gathering in the next room. 'J ti** Loring men cheere?! and staini>ed on the slightest pro\ocation and at most gmt?mp* led jioints. These were ad drcswd hy the ?Bar, Dr. Ipliun of Lynn, the Hon. F. A.

A SHOW 00 Mi:l.N?JTH HY THK ADAMS MUN. While IhtM meetings were going on upstairs, the Adams nu?n, le*s l?>ilunate in the choice of a room, talked the matter ovtr on the ground floor. Mr. ?ri-eti of Itu Wtt*mK*?9 Syy had the Chair, and there wot?- si?ea-(h? s by Prof. Win. Everett of Cambridge, mon ti Edward Everett, W. l? .Sheldon of The Lu. ton Ji'eic*. N. li. Hale, J. H. Walker, E. E. Lyman, and W. li. Shelton. Prof. Everett's speech was an elo ?fjueut rwNiew of the public cart?cr of Mr. Adams. It was r?-<<i\??d with much favor. It was evident that the Adams men were surprised at their own etrongtb. The friends of I he other can?lidat>i? have been hard at work for weeks. 'I'ho Adams move? ment came right from the people. It would not have be*'n po?vib!e had not the Democrat? nomina tod rich a strong ticket and made such an unex-seption able platform. Under the inspiration of a crowded room and enthusiastic speeches they begun work in earucut at Has meeting, appointing au executive (oiMiiittve and adopting a resolution to stick to their candidate to the very end. But all the Adams men were not found in the Adama headquarters. Another room bad b??eu set apart for a meeting of uucoiumittod dele? gates, with a -view of an exchange of opinion. Adin Thayer, a well known Republican of Worcee ter, presided, and ?spoke guardedly, but with a lean? ing toward Mr. Rice. Others followed in advocacy of the claims of Mr. Rice, but the Adams m? n sud? denly made a demonstration, and finally seem to have captured the me? ting. THK CANDIDATP9. It is now gi?!,(?!ally admitted that the vote lies be fwe?n Rice, Loring, and Adams. The only com? promise candidates whot>e names are heard are Judge Colt of l'ittsfield, a good lawyer and p??p u?.?r gentl-man, now on the Supreme Beach, and (i? n. W. F. Barth-tt, the Democratic candidate for Li? uti-nant-Govcrnor. There is no organized move? ment, however, in favor of either of them. It is suited that t.Vn. Bartlett will not accept the Democratic nomination, if Mr. Adams heads the Republican thket, and that he is disinclined to oppose Mr. Kice, but he will fight Dr. Loiiiiir fimt, la t, and all the time. As to the probable vote on the tiret ballot to-morrow, there is gr? at uncertainty, but the following estimate is obtaiti<-?i from those who have cuiefully canvaescd the fiehl : Kice, HBO; Loring, MOO; Adams, 1.50; statt? ring, .'100. 'lhere is little speculation about the subordinate places on the ticket. The following are the prominent eon didatea: For LieuU'iiant-fioviriior, Horatio G. Knii'ht of East Hampton, who now tills the office. POT Secretary of State, Hi my B. Pearce of Abing? don, an infln? ntial member of the (?rand Army of the Republic ; W? E.

To meet these nlgeucles tho regulation* coiit.iliied In the articles of agreement now submitted have been adopted.it haling been deemed necessary for the projier prutet'tlou and ?leatly employ? ment of iiidiistrtmis operatives who desire regular em? ployment.

The regulation simply provides tb.it eau li iudivldiial shall make his own decision as to when and whore be ?hall work, and for what price, regardless of unions. The j?ro vlston as to 10 days' notice lor each ?iterative the manu? facturers say Is simply Intended to ?usure regularity In the working ef the sc\ eral department?, and to insure employ-mat to all. Any steps taken to prevent I n terni p tioin lu the regularity of work is quite as much for the U iirfti of those who ?.??ni??, ?ta-.ui-, work as for the cor? poral Ion?. Tbe q.n ition may be'more definitely comprehended by I a r-iatciiicTit of the number employed in raub departuiciit of a mill of 40,000 spindle*. There are employed In the picker department, 8; card strippers and grinders, 8; drawing tenders, 4 ; speeder tenders, lil; oth?-r card-room hands, 30; spinners, 3'J; other hands in spinning-room, 5? ; ?poolers, M j warpers, ? : slashers, 3 ; web drawer?, 11; weaving department.'.??io ; miscellaneous, 40; total, 4o0. Heretofore the custom baa boen to give two weeks' notice of intention* to leave, but there ha* ticen no obli? gation on the part of the operatives to be in any way re? sponsible for breaking this regulation. The time of notice rcciuire?! has now been re?luced to t?u days, and un arrange? ment fixed by which the operator forfeits the wages that may be due him at tho time tue agreement is broken. Consc?|iiently, the regulation is les? onerous than hereto? fore, but some responsibility is assumed for breaking It anil throwing out of employment the entire for? o of the mill, and preventing the mill owners from completing their contracts. The manufacturers aver that no caiidld miii'leil pernou, familiar with the thousand and one de? tails of the business, and the events of the past year or two, will pronnuuee tho agio m? ut an} tiling more than what is necessary to counteract the tenth ncies which have been developed aa the result of constant agitation. The mauiifacliirers, whose interests are wholly Identi? fied willi the siic?,cms and pmspcrty of UM community, believe Hint the arrangements they have adopted arc vital to the permanent prosperity of Fall River. They state that the original reduction of wage? was made Jan. 1, which, li will be remembered, was general through? out New-KnglHiid. It \? as ten p<?r cent. About April 1 that reduction wa* reston ?1 lu this city, but not generally in other manufacturing districts. The reduction of Aug. I wa? for the purpose of placing tile rat?- of wages at tiiat which ??.is cum tit lure during the early part of the year, ami whh h had rt-ni lin.-al current throughout the other inaniifactmiiig distritts. Tlie object was to continue husiu.?.? and keep the operathes employed without any material io- - to the corporations.

Tlie explanations of the cause of tlie stliko j among the opa-rativt-s to the Fall River cotton mills, as given l?y persons in tills city who arc largely interested lu the cotton industry, vary to soiiii! exteut, but the fol? lowing fat Is sectil to be gem-rally accepted. Fall River is the great center of the print cloth manufacture in the (Taltai Slates. Tin- supply of print cloths, it is stated, in the last two yeal s has trailnally rome to be in excess of the ?h m.ii.ii. FrU-ea have eonse(|uently suffered a ? otoiilerable redil? tioti, and Hie stockholders iu the mills have found a corresponding difference in th? ir divideuds From this state of affuns leniilted the proposed rcdticth.n of wages dining the Hummer of this year. The opera? tives took one month's vacation rutber than work at the le.lm.-d ???ige?. Ou letuniiiig td their work they were ready io ac? ?pt the terms of the employers. The latter then met tin ni willi new demands. They asked that the op? eratives -ikoulil alfa au agreement to beloug to no organ i/ .lion lu whi-li a nnO'Tity regulates wages ; that if any body of opiiative.i ?juit work without giving ten days' notice th.-y should forfeit all wages due them, the em plovirs only to accept notices from one-eighth of those employed in any single department in a single week, thus preventing a general allika m less titan eight weeks, iinh'ss the oi?eratives were prepared fore eouslderable ?aerttee of waircs. l>npIoym?'ni was also refused to the known leaders of oi-gaiii/ations. Th?>sc additional de? mands occasioned the trouble of Mouday. A large null owner and manufacturer and printer of print cloths iu this State, whose firm employs about 1 .*i,000 hand*, gate it aw his opinion that the present ac? tion of the mill owners, or thfir agents, in Fall River, is a blow at tlie trades unions throughout the country. Tin? ti ailes unions, he wus convint cal, wa-re at the bottom taf tho strike there, as they had been previously. The organizations among the operatives in that quarter might assume different names, but they are really biauelics of Hie saint? threatening organization, fed by it ami reeding It In linn. It is a local mattet- Just at pres? ent, but general lu its features. Last year the operatives >ei/??d upon a time for their strike when contracts were to be fulfilled, anti the employers were consentit ntly com? pelled to iiecede to their terms or el-e suffer a grievous loss. On this last occasion the ?Strike wits not so well timed. Ibis,ne as had been so dull that there were no heavy contracts, aud it made little diff?rend' to the otfners whelheror not the mills were at a standstill. During the month's vacation they hail organized together and agreed upou the terms, which, as a body, they would demand of the operatives. They really formed a counter organiza? tion to Unit of the operatives which did not exist in tho preceding year. Last year If one employer refused work to aiiv operatives they went to other employers and ob tainisl it. This could not happen nu lei present ?Trcutii ?taaeee, as Ike employers hail ??greed on common action. He b? li? ved that the violence displayed by the opera? tives originated with the agents of the trades unions. The uiiin.is felt that tlie combination of the mill owners was a blow struck at tlietn, and were likely to resist with all their power. They would supply the funds for tho coniinuatton of tlie strike, if necessary, Within his own experience a I'nion had been formed among his njierative?. They had subscribed a common funil to the amount of about .*l"i,<)00 two years ago, and were preparing to strike, when In? disco? ??rod it and dis inisM'tl all concerued. This he was enabled to do suc? cessfully, as he bud no one to compete with iiiiu. ile ow ii. d all his mills, and if tho op.-rutivcs did not choose to work for him they could go to no rival mill, ile ?lid not kuow what Hie average wages for opcratnes were lu Full River, but they must be much the sanie na else? where, opcratnes Hier?? h ni t?i pay moie rent than do those who work In hit nulls, because he owned the houses lu which they lived as well as the mills, and the nut was almost nommai, being really considered iu their wages. Tho effect of the strlko would be felt all over the country in the depaituieitt of print cloths, aud calico goods are iu more gent ral th-maiid lhan any other description of catina gealla He thought the operativas in Fall River were offer?-?! Just as goiRl average wages as the operatives ni any other industry just at present. Indeed they had done bettor on the average lhan others since the war, as they lia.I not suffered a reduction In wages like those engaged in other pursuits. YIEW8 Ol' DllY MOM MKRCHAST8. A partuerin one of the principal dry goods houses in this city expressed the opinion that the trades' unions hud nothing to ?lo w 111) the pr. sent trouble. He believed that tin- whole affair was stirred up by organization* among the opcrBlivca themselves, aud that uo outside pressure was brought to bear on them. They were wil? lina- to g<? to woik at th? re.lued wages. Th?' demands of the employers s? ?un-d to him tiuwtse ami too strin? gent. F.ven if acceded to, they would be, or coull! be, rcniUictl practically iui?is-raU\e. He did not beliovo in pledging employ?* lu that manner. These whom It wa* found iici-?saary to bind by such pledges were sure to fli.d some iii;?tiii'-r of breaking them. He belie vc?! rather in trusting men up?>ii their own honor an?! good sens?', in education, and in the power of moral suasion. If the*? did not sulllce nothing else would. Hut h had !>??? n his cxiM'iiciice among the employee iu his house. Ho never deuiaatlc?l any pledg?-s of them on entering, and he never found such pledges necessary, ??omi workmen were always valuable to their employer, and it wa* his intereat to keep them. There ha<( Ix-eii a ? onsiderable depression of late In prices of ?tie sp?-, al ? lass of goods that eame from Fall River. He did uot think that th? strike would affet t bustneae *o much aa waa anticipated.
