    Abolition, Free Love, Infidel And Women’s Rights Convention.

    BUFFALO, Saturday, Sept. 17.

    A Convention of self-styled reformers has been sitting in this city for two days past, comprising the leading abolitionists, spiritualists, free-lovers, infidels, fanatics, and women’s rights men and women’s rights men and women of the country. The Convention closes its session to-morrow (Sunday) and the public generally will experience a feeling of relief when the city is rid of these reformers.

    The leaders of the demonstration are ANDREW JACKSON DAVIS, PARKER PILLSBURY, HENRY G. WRIGHT, STEPHEN S. FOSTER, and LYMAN S. CURTIS, most of whom figured at the Free-Love Convention at Rutland, and have assumed prominent positions at this meeting. NELSON W. CLARK, of Clarkson, Mich., is the President.
