Than laughing spring in their sunny cheer.

That worn ni arc citizens none will
deny. That they have equality with
men before the law none will affirm.
The right of trial by a jury of one's
peers, which is granted to the wicked
est male criminal is witheld from wo
men, she being in all cases tried by
men. Xot only this, but the right of
trial by jury was denied Susan B. An
thony, who, a few years ago, being ar
rested for voting, was tried, eonvic.ed.
and sentenced to pay a line and costs
of pidsecut ion by t he absolute power
of a Judge of tin Supreme Court of
the I'nited States. Susan 15. Anthony
was a citiz'-n, did she have equ tlity

Do you wonder that it makes women
who hold property wince to see men
who do not even own the tobacco th.-y
chew, vote taxes of hundreds of dol
lars on their p:vpTty for uses which
they do not approve, and they have not
the right to even utter a protes'..
Some way the old wat cry, 'aa ion
without representation is unjust," the
very cornerstone of American inde
pendence, seems to have lost its signif
icance since men have received their
rights. I Iy the laws of the land they
say male taxation without male repre
sentation is unjust. a; id havjiig secured
the lights o;' citizens by the declara
tion "all governments derive tht ir just
poweis from the consent of the gov
erned." now virtually contradict their
assertions and say to one-half their
citizens, in ihe words of Ceorge III
himself, "I will tax y:.u; I will gov-n.
Vot:." "Oh. tviisistency ! thou art a
jewel."
And jet we do not believe that men
do that wrong intentionally. It is
more an oversight Irom thotigntk ss
ness ihan a deliberate insuit to woman
hood. We believe that in err .Li their
inmost hearts love and revere women,

The subject of the llev. Chauncey
(iiles discourse in the Swedenborgian
Church Sunday morning. October -iitli,
was "Man's 11 ace in tha Creation ; how
he is related to (Jod on one side of his
nature and is different froia animals
on the oJier." He said that the doc
trines of the Xew Church make entire
ly new disclosures to man concerning
himself. They do not on found him
with Ood or Angels on one side or na
ture on the other. Man is the crown
ing work of the Lord. He is the most
variously and perfectly organized; the
planes of his being run through all the
degrees of the creation, from the high
est to the lowest. He is a mineral, he
is a vegetable, lie is an animal, he is a
spirit, he is an angel. All forms, all
qualities, all motions, all tivities are
centered in him. lie is a vn'croeosm;
the kingdom of (Jod is within him; so
he is a material and spiritual universe
I lis mind is capacious enough to re
ceive all its forms, and powerful
enough to weigh all its qualities. He
has capabilities which tire impossible
to the whole material universe; he
will outlive them all, and he is worth
more than all worlds. Uut, notwith
standing man is so great and precious
in his capabilities, we are in danger of
mistaking some of the adjuncts of a
man, or some of the means by which
the dis iuctlv human is formed for the
man himself.
Man ii, in the human form, the no
blest and most beautiful form lha the
Lord has ever created; but it is not
the form which distinguishes man
from all other creatures and consti
tutes thy human iu him. Some beasts
approach so near lo man in this re
spect that savants conclude that man
is nothing but a more hugely" devel
oped biji.f. Jiut it is no; so. The hu
man does not consis. in the outward
form. It does not consist in the abili
ty to see and hear, to e.tt and feel, and
to enjoy Lie pleasures of the senses.
lleasls have minds and souls. Man is
not different from them J-y ihe fact
that he can know, think, reason and
love. Wliat we call the m i.ei ial plane
of his faculties he holds in common
with them. It is true these faculties
exis. iu him in nufch larger, more va
liedand nobler forms ; but if In pos
sessed them all in p-rfctio:i it would
not make him a man.
Man's spiri. u tl nature, or man as a
spirit, coiisis.s of three degrees or
planes of oiguiic forms, entirely dis
iiiict f .ni eacii other, and called nat
ural, spiritual and celestial. These
planes of f iL'ul.ies are so dis? iiu t that
the lower may be developed while the
two higher remain as mere germs, as
possibilities. Tin natural and the
spiritual may be developed while the
higl.es. remains as a mete germ. The
na.ural plane of his mind man pos
sesses in common with animals. How
ever largely the faculties of that de
gree oT his nature may be developed,
he only becomes by L a nobler animal.
The human, distinctly as such, be
gins in the ration-.', which is the con
necting link netw -u the natural and
the spiritual, p i : iking of the nature
of both. All mail's power of perceiv
ing what is equi .abie and just, of what
is true and good, also all spiritual .af
fections, belong to this degree of his
mind. It is iu these qualities that tin1
genuine human begins. They are based
on the natural. They t-egin where the
natural faculties end, and from them,
as a basis, they rise to the spiritual,
and. if man devehqies his nature so
far. into ihe celestial.
I'erhaps we cannot define the human
quality of man's mind in any bet.er
wat than by the golden rule, doing to
otheis.as we would have them do to
us, and of loving to do so We have
no evidence that a brute can have any
conception of such a motive for ac
tion. Keeping this simple rule in
mind, we may be able to see where we
begin to be distinctly and essr-nti ally
human. It is when we discover our
relation -o others, when we begin to
feel the sense of obligation, and to act
from love to others that is, 10 pi ice

distressed by some neighbor's gossip
about him, carried into the street be

about as large as a two pound loaf, to
which were attached two jiieccs of col

the jiackage, which he had placed on

At this moment some boys ran toward
him. "Keeji back," shouted Duncan,
"for the love of Ood! or you'll be
b'ovn into eternity!" Thus adjured
the boys did keej back. The exjilo

Women In the 01l Time and in the New.
Mr. George William Curtis lectured
in Xew York a few evenings ago on
"Women in the Old Time and in the
Xew." The following extracts are
taken from an abstract of his lecture
published in the X". Y. Times:
The dress of a fashionable woman
and never were men so alive to it as at
this moment t lie dress of a fashiona
ble woman, says the social moralist,
costs her husband hundreds, yes thou
sands of dollars. "It is shameful; it
was not so in the simjde old time."
Softly, softly. Here is Queen Elizabeth.
.'J00 years ago, who died the owner of
2,000 dresses, and who issued her proc
lamation against extravagance in dress.
We bewail our society, so giddy so
gross. Young men content to drive
fast horses and play billiards; young
women in the finest dresses, hobbling
on high heeled shoes that pinch their
feet into Chinese deformity, in bonds
t hat squeeze their wais.s. It is shame
ful, we cry. Hut were old times much
simjiler?" In Smollet's "Ilututihrey
Clinker," the picture of society one
hundred years ago, we see a famous
belle dressed for a ball. "I was out six
hours in the hands of t he hair-dresser
ami he stuffed my head full of black
tow that would have made a quilted
petlicoat." And yet it was the small
est head with ouo exception.
The position of women is til ways the
test of civilization, and the great i 11 in
tra ion of its advancing sentiment is
the opening u;i of every opportunity
of education. To-day. as I stand iu
the ample halls of some great school
for girls, humming with intellectual
activity, as I think of the daily us- of
that household, of the libraries, of the
cloister of learning, of the nuns im
mured, not for s diitM V and u-adt ss
worship, "nut daily training to iraise
Cod by a larger and still larger devcl
ojmient of the faculties lie has given.
I n i'e-t that if those girls had been
Greeks of the age of IVricies, instead
of Am u icans of to-lay, if they li id
lived in what we are apt to call civil
ization, it would have been simply ae
eejde.l as an indica.ioii that they were
fi ting themselves for lives of disgrace
instead of honor. In the old times of
Greece, the bet. educated, the luo.st ac
complished women, women whosa wit
and inteligence were like the ladies
who are t he jnide of society to-day,
were for that reason an out -lawed
class.
The lecturer then spoke of the first
attemjits toward the higher education
of women. He told how a young wom
an was mobbed in France for attempt
ing to establish a school in which she
might te.ich girls; referred to the ac
complishments of ladies in the etuly
days as consisting of nothing more
than a knowledge of writing and arith
me.ic, and, in some few cases music
and dancing. Sometimes in those ear
ly days girls were allowed to attend
school when there were not boys
enough to till the class-room, and in
summer girls were, iu a few instancs,
permitted to attend the boys' school
for a fev hours a day. The city of
Doston was the first to give girls an
oj'jmrt unity to gain a better education,
and after a discussion of three v-ars it
was decided by the common council to
establish a high school for girls similar
to that for boys. When the school
was opened i s doors were actually be
sieged by git's, and the city fathers
were amazed at this crowd oi' "fellows
of the o her sex, you know." At the
establishment of the school the jiei jde
were horrified, and began to mak sug
gestions and to ask questions as to how
far this higher education was to be
carried. The question suggests itself
to those city fathers: Sujipose. suji
jiose that IJosion women should come
to know more than IJoston men; suj
jiose and sujipose. Mr. President, there
should be a board of Alderwomen in
stead of Aldermen who should rule
theei y? As the old deacon said, "Sttli
jio.se and siiijo.se, fellow-sinners, you
should wake uj) in the morning and
find ourself dead, what would vou sav
then?"
rdr. Curtis thought that Sidney Smith
would stand aghast could he see how
ra;iidly these views on education had
advanced. Schools and colleges were
being everywhere established for w,:n
en. and even in the sKradow of Cam
bridge University m England, th vie
stood a female tolh-ge. for which ex
aminations were held throughout the
land. 1- was argifd by some, lie said,
tliat a woman could noi stand the
strain of a college education, and it
was a woman who replied: "I would
like you to take l.JJOO young men and
lace them, and iiang ten or twenty
pounds of clot hing ujkui their waists,
jieich them on three-inch heels, and
stick 10,000 hair-pins in their scalps,
and if they can stand this they can al
so stand a little Latin and a little
Greek." Among savages, he said,
woman was regarded as little more
than a child or a beast, and even jioets
considered her as only tit to attend to
flowers, and such oilier things as that.
He considered that conijiliinent was an
insult to a woman, and in order to il
lustrate how a woman was sometimes
com j limented and at the same time in
sured, the sjieuker gave a very lively
and grajdiie descrijition of a suju er
at which met), when half intoxicated,
toasted women, and then sang "We
wont go home till morning." lie re
versed this scene, and jiresented one of
half-fuddled women toasting men in
the same manner.
In answer to ihe question which he
said he juesumed the audience would
jiut to him as to whelherjthe home was
not the proper sphere of woman, he
said that for some it was, but every
woman had talents and certain facul
ties which God had given her. and
which it was her duty and her place to
develop.

CASTING A imONZE STATUE.
"You want nothing do yon?" said
Pat. "He-dad and if its nothing ye
want, ye'll find it in the jug where the
whiskey was."
How the Work Is Pone Vouldimc Con
rad's Fig-are of a Soldier for Hart
ford. The lower half of Conrad's statue ot
a soldier, to be erected in Hartford,
was cast in bronze in Fischer's foun
dry, Forsyth street, on Saturday. The
ujijier half had been finished. The fig
ure is heroic in size, and represents a
young union infantry soldier in uniform
including overcoat, and carrying a mus
ket. The casting of a large jiieee in
bronze is a delicate operaton, requiring
care and artistic skill. The making of
a plaster mould from the original mod
el, then a plaster figure from that mould
and finally from the figure a sectional
mould into which to run the metal, le
quires many weak of skilled lala r.
The element of luck enters largely in
to the culminating attempt to cast, as
tlaws in the metal often cause failures,
imjiosing weeks of additional labor.
Consequently the dozen workmen em
ployed on Saturday were visibly anx
ious, and a knot of spectators employ
ed the entire afternoon in interestedly
watching the juocess.
The large box. called a "lhtsk," con
taining the mo.ild, clamjied firmly with
iron, was let down with a crane into a
cavity, and flowed over, so that only a
funnel protruded. This was close to a
great bricK furnace, in which the'
bronze was heating over a great, roar
ing lire. The metal, as it was slowly
converted into liquid, was closely ob
served by the foreman. A glimj'se
through an ajierture showed it boiling
furiously like water, and so hot that
an iron liar stuck into it became red
almost instantly. "When the iron could
be withdrawn without any bronze,
clinging to it, the comjiound was deem
ed ready. An immense metal bucket,
attached to a powerful crane, was
swung under the end of a spout, the
furnace was tapped, and a molten
stream ran out. Sparks Hew in every
direction, faces were shielded hastily
from the heat, and the dusty plaster
images of Franklyn, the Yanderbilt
has relief, and other relics of previous
jobs were made to glow. The bucket
was Nearly tilled, a turn of the cranl"
took it over the flask, and the liquid
was, by tijijiing the bucket, poured in
to the mould, from which the sudden
ly heated air rushed through vent
pipes, with a noise like escaping steam.
Some of the bronze slojqied over and
set fire to the wood floor, and the w a
ter that quenched the blaze made so
much steam that nothing else could be
seen for fire minutes. The casting
was perfect.
Grasshopper Flanked. -
According to the lSoulder(Col.)..Yw.-
Mr. James Gould, living near that
point, has added a nugget of knowl
edge to our grasshopjier lore. He says
that plowing the land before the eggs
hatch in the spring destroys them ut
terly. This being the case, the fanner
has only to guard his grain fields
against the Incursions of those that
hatch outside. This he can effectually
tIo. Mr. Gould has jiut in 120 acres of
grain and has kejit the hoppers off. Ue
jiending mainly on dripjiing coal oil in
the ditches. He has used sixteen gal
lons and destroyed millions. Almost
as soon as they are hatched the myr
iads outside instinctively move for the
fields of young wheat, plunging in to
cross the ditch and die at the touch of
the kerosene. The ditch is fixed to
make eddies, and a scum of the oil
floats on the surface. Mr. Gould says
that with what the farmers now know
about fighting grasshopjiers, there is
no more danger from those that hatch
in the sjuing. About those that come
on the wing late in the season, he sajs
the remedy is to sow early a"d then
the crojxs will be out of the way before
they come. A year ago it seemed as if
the locust scourge might destroy Color
ado farming, making a crop so uncer
tain that none would take the risks.
Xow it is certainly known how to
avert all this danger. It is a most
wonderful triumjih of the thought of
man. He has done what it seemed im
jiossible could ever be done, and hence
forth the wheat harvest will be gath
ered in all the Colorado valleys, in
sjiite of the locust, thank heaven, and
thank human invention, too.
The above pajier says also that at a
recent horse show men from the var
ious sections of the country, all told
the same story of unwearying dili
gence and triumjih over the 'hojqier.
They had scarcely got back from the
funeral and the bereaved husband had
but bitten into a sandwich when his
oldest boy came up from the cellar
with his face aglow with distress.
"Oh. jia," he breathlessly exclaimed,
"the bung has come out of the cider
barrel, and it's all over the cellar."
"Well, I declare" gasjied the stricken
man in a despairing voice, "one trou
ble follows right on tho heels of anoth

While wandering down Main street
Saturday afternoon, wo saw two
doughty sons of of old Ilohemia engag
ed in moral combat. They clinched,
and after swaying backwai J and for
ward for a few moments, both went to
"grrss," the small man on top. The
under fellow squealed and coaxed his
victorious antagonist to let him uj.
When he gained his feet he cracked his
heels togather and shouted in a sonor
ous voice, "Whoop! stop a little. Yen

like damn a geese, and of I strike you

the other fellow and he immediately
left the scene of conflict and je.ace soon
