She Mikes a Struggle for Life
Lecture by Bliss Anna K. Dickiti
son, at the Academy of Muic,
Last Evening.
Tbe Academy of MusIb was filled to luln
last evetlng, and Miss Aona E. Dickinson was
the sole attraction. Dressed in a moire antique
of greyish tint, with a very k'ogthy trail rather
cumbersome, we thought, for the strugglo of
life this amiable young lady appeared, without
attendance, on the stage at about ten minutes
after eight o'clock, and at once plunged Into the
"Struggle for Lite" that is to say, woman s
struggle for life. Doubiless tnojt of our reader
have beard the fair lecturer, and arc familiar
with bcr lively manner, her nervous style, am',
her peculiar intonatlan, which at time is deve
loped into a regular "sing-song." Last cvcniug
she spoke substantially as follows:
In the eaily days ot the Involution IT.
Uuhlenbuig, '.he lounder ol tho Lmbcrau
Church in America, aue one HabNath mormni
lnio his pulpit and preached Christ aud liim
crucified. He then dii8tcL'ld from the pulpit
iDto the midst ot his ll'Kk, and laying aside his
sacred robe, displayed to their aiUmistted eyes
turn tell arrayed in the run costumo ot Dauie.
"My Iricndtv' he said, "there Is a time lor
f Teaching and a time lor hunting, and my time
or Dghtu.g has come " (Applause.) Tbcrobas
been a great deal said upon tbe qui'Hiiou of
women's work, a great deal of prenehimr, a great
deal ot lecturing, a great deal of ta king, argu
ing, ditcussing, and tho whole has been so
admirably and skilfully accompli-bed that 1
doubt not many people to-nitrht will ask what
more 1 have to saj? thall I have to say
anything beyond what Beecher, Phillips,
Anthony, Cuitis, and many others hve
exprested? lhat reminds me that when Pitt,
and Buike, and Fox, musters alike of situations
and ot questions, held their sway, men with
whom no stilpliiig dare measure swords belorc
the aud'eucfs whom their genius delighted,
some man was toolii-b enouch to cross the
ground over which their mighty tread had
par-scd, and one asked nim bow be had dared to
speak before them. ' Because," said he, "1
am as much interested in the question as they
are." (Applaure.) Tuus do I peak upon this
question, which has been huii'lka by to mucu
greater brains aud eloquent lips than mine,
because "1 am as much interested iu the
question as they.'' (AppUuse.) It is tbe text
of mi fercEOU, however paradoxical it ra.ty
appear, that you stop prpacinnir unci commence
to fipht. (Applause.) I. was a uiaxi'U ot lh;
jreat Mspoleon tuat there was "n itlun without
the people." I'lieru can be nothing done without
this; It is theieture ihu beiiiuui.ig, the midd'e,
and the end. I would eay to vo.i that tuero is
no argun ent to powerful as the argument ol
sucoebt. Tntreis notmiit: taut cu be sulJ tor
joo, no argument can be airaj nj iu your behal.
All the limits you cla in will not be rccouuued
by the people until jour efforts have triumph
antly acu eved them, "i'he woikl belongs to
tbote w ho tane it." is ac I uil'.un proverb. It Is
not for tiio.se who pray or plead tor it, or aryrii'i
in their l half, but it is 1 jr thoe wUo lay
strong hands up jn U and ninSe it their on.
Thisisaliwot uu.oaiiiiy nii'l applies uiiae to
women as will as men, unless it is that
it is not conceded that women arc humnii
beings. (Laugh 'cr.) None, liO A'cv. r, are found
who have tbe temerity to make such u ruiv
meut, unlets it is indeed made oy the Ilartlord
Insurance Company. (Lamurer.) Tbis com
pany provides aaa ust the accideuts aud dCHth
of men, but oniy provides in the case of th
death of women. (Lauau.er. ) Wnat, Is it true
that women cannot oe injure I bat only kille I '
Can they sutler the pants and Ols'olutiou of
morialny and not its pain? Cuunot they be
wounded anC not dtsnoit d ? Or is Its piau or
supposition ba-eii upon the theory that she is
ol so much less cou-equence, or inat there is
nobody but bcr-.elt to compensate in ca?e of her
injuries? Or is it based U.on tho supposition
that It a muu Is injured there la no person to
take care ot him, or support, or sustain him ?
Or thai a won au has nothing to do bat tall bueK
upon some masculine arms, which are always
ready aud willing to be stretcued out lor ht-r
support? This lastcouiains the gist ot the whole
matter, as indeed it docs aiioug the great part
ot humanity, Irom a misconcepii n ot tbe greut
spheie ot ner work. We say in the afliriuauve
th'it tbe ' woild belongs to those who take it,"
and if it be not disnaoie lor woman to seize mil
jeefs it, the must cat of iheoilandjviue whicu
she hath not cultivated or plauted, or sit us a
Slant enthroned and enshrined Iu some arm's
tart, tnd take the inccn6 and gooi
things he there offers. (Applsuse.) Tina
is all very well, when the heart is a good
heart and tho oilers abundant. (Laugh. er.)
But, untortunately, when one gazes into ttie
hearts aud lives of men, oncofiener is compelled
to gaze down than op. (Applause.) Man
oUtu takes out of her pocket pounds aud th :n
magnanimously puts a shilling into ber hands.
Yet ot a truth much can be claimed for one
made a little lower than the augels aud crowned
with glory and honor; grunt that such a one
gives a lile tor the support, maintenance, and
protection ot some woman, jet with all this it
is otrtainiy true that woman's position is an
ucenvlable one if the condition is past mending.
I had rather eat crusts and don a calico garment
than place jewels upon my person, which makes
a pauper ot one, wn.ch bad not been paid tor, or
given equivalent work lor thagold. (Applause.)
1 bad ra'her be culled a simplciou in my mind
and whl?h Indeed 1 often am (laughter) than
carry the reputation of Minerva upon tuts
thought of auotl.er. I bad rather carry tlie
stings of conscience, tbe nangs of remorse, the
teats ol action which demonstrated the "strug
gle for life," than fill au aimless and useless
existence, or fill a beautiful one. (Applause.)
Since it is true that there Is no pleasuraol-? feel
ing comparable to thai which comes iron pain;
inoe it is true that we admire the aim ol lit by
a fulfilment of its purposes, everything which
impedes, rc'ards, or destroys the fulfilment ot
the purposes impedes, retards, or destroys the
greatest psrt of life. Walking is easier tbau
aiandug still; climbinir than alkinsover level
ground. Ihe wisest people, the best ot them,
believe that tho progress of mankind is on wind
and upward. Iu the Malay language tho same
woids signify women aud flowers. Womeu ami
flowers, tbe duty of both is to b sweet au 1
beautiful. They are neliber to toil nor spin,
but after a while some man voruci alou aud
I lucks one ot these lair sweetness and we irs
it in his buttonhole, very likely, provided tho
flower be a mos-rose bud, or pausey, or orange
blossom; but how it it be a sunflower (Uuslrer)
or hollyhock, or weo I or polatoe plant (Uugu
ter), or onion blossom? (Great laughter.)
How then? Aud as lor the poor little most,
rote bud, if it Lad only beeu left upon its
own stem, and lett to from grow its on
roots, with the s in of Heaven shining upon it
(the more tb.e better), it would have been.
In time a fair, rude, vigorous plant an orna
ment to some man's eurden and place, but
it is plucked away, cluck iu some man's button
bole, and then ho sooa it fades and witoers!
(Applause,) it was beautilitl in Its commence
mint, exquisite in its smell, and sweet in its
looks, but presently It becornos such a poor,
taded object that even If a man still loves it be
puis his band over it to hidoit; he apologize
lor it to his lriend, or crushes it into some dark
pocket, or tears it out aud timers It a wa.v
(applause) when It no lontrer uiinis'era to bn
pride or pasioo. (Laughter.) It I wore an
order I would rather have my rose buso gro y
up in the garden in Its own way, aud over
rhndow tbe house, than have a part of it with
i red and fall away (apj lause)-lf one re
flects too, In addition, that anything which In
constantly carried about, supported and dragged
bout with one, becomei cumbersome and
wearl'orne, though it bf greater weight than a
traw. (Applauaf.) The chief end of existence
Is for one womau to be supported by one muu,

fctuaciiye and advr&ble eJw foaie.

Joe when he ns aked it his friend is deal.
Ho," sajs Joe, "not exactly dead." "Well,
vour friend is not alive?" "Yes,"' says Joe,
' Thfit's It exncUv." ( laughter.) That is it:
th' to woman sro no', alive though they arc

their condition puts me in mind of
the saving ol the celebrated French
wit. who In his last hour threw his head ba ;k

But this admonition does not affect only this
rsrticular class; the eriects ot their idleuess
spreads around them. Ttiere may be a woman
who. having a tbousat.d dollars, undertakes to
live upon it, aud s.ill keep up her style; or her
husbaud bus a thou'snd dollars a veur. Vtt

tiieir hearts force them to. but becaase the exi

It noes not meiin that she loves and is loved in

Lever been taught any active profession, bat
thev only go into life with the one idea of
marriage, as though the acquisition ot a hus
bnud was an active protts-ion. (Laughter.)
The New York STimes said she should not tie
engaged ou love, as the knew nothing about
It. One tiling was certainly true, that I
can scarcely love a man who has u
very small sou!, and plsinly I would .'ay thu
I would r.ot wed a man, even though be were
the editor of the Times, it he did not show de
votion to woma'i irom his heart. tVbatis the
jeeord of the various courts in Ameiica? Ihe
record was crowing and muguifvlnir, aud it the
unpublished and unwritten histories of the
miserable loves of men aud women ail
about us could but be revealed the
abswer would bo terrible aud pitiful. It
scuds out its results upon tbe streets. Thess
vi ry friends ol her seeming protection were
her dettrojers. A young girl approaches to
woEcnnhood ; sne wants a husband; she waits;
tt;e buibuiid doct-n't come; the seducer does,
and tbe result is bather houl becomes steeped
in the blackness ol darkness that she may keep
her bands clean. According to certain rules ol
society, women were required to look upon
labor as a degradation and a disgrace, and
disiespect the remuneration they get ' Irom
utclul toll. It is dillerent ahongst the male
pcr'ijn ot tbe community. The bchoolooy is
trained to bo a workman, and if society shuts
her door u him, he has btill mechanical skill
which brmgs plenty to rejoice him. The female
Is not so; she depends upon marriage. )ou
lit ar a woman say to one who asks her does her
daughter woik: "My daughter wor I Never.
My daughter did not do a siugle piece ot

some day." When it is asked of the

as though a gentleman could mean anyihiug iu
An. erica but a pure heart, a clear mind, and au
untuil.ed conscience and manly life. (Ap-
filaui-e.) Ladies' and gentlemeo't false nouona
n this respect flow from the same decided root.
'Ihe sword is two-edged; make labor ho ,orable
and profitable for man, and you wilt make it
honoiableaud profitable lor woman. (Cheers.)
1 have been working thus far ou the premise
that woman In the world looks Jor a man
auutnst wboin she may lean as auaintt a pillar,
(tometimes that man's support is us frai;ile as
the slick he holds in his band. In our midst
theie are mynudsot women who have lathers,
husbands, motners, sisters to support, and 1
give you my word oi houor some wives have
husbands to support. (Laughter.) Abundance
of women had to support tticms. Ives by their
dteradaticu. aud thereby come to dishonored
craves. The love of Independence is lutnmely
better than a Ida of depindeuce. Those who
are unaccustomed to suffering and toil no
Into the woild aid are compelled to work.
Why aie they not as able to do so as man? The
reason Is that man makes his on selection; he
does the wont he desires, or has been trained t
do, and is able to do it. It is the reverse with the
female. She is merely brought up to look
upon work as disreputaole. Idleness is the
bsdge ot destruction, fshe is unable to do worst
and depends loi existence coon clean hnmls.
This gill's sole profession is to net married, aud
comequently she tramplos all labor under loo,
fene sns down in her owu time uuul some mm
puts in an arm iof bir to ban upon. Bcini?
unable to get married, this woman is obliged to
go out aud to'l. This boy now who has a trade

now she is obliged to work at tbe first that

only stquencc from this is that the work

death. I will (five you uu ejcuuipi, whioli
ouoto from the World which relates to a case
ot this description. The IVor-d represents ilia
cni-e ot a jouiitr pit 1, sixteen years of age,
biteing for cmplojmeut, who went on to work
a' i'i a wtck on hr arrival in New Yoik. She
1 ad to support her mother and herself oat
ot it, aid he found tne could nut do si
at 3 a week. She went into a saloon
whiro she uot ?20 a week. Then
she can e to beg for funic honorable employ
ment, and she bettered hei.-elt ut the exieuse "of
the priceless gilt of ctjas'.lty. Ah, tiieuts,
could jou not malic some provuiou lor Uio
helplecs leru.ilo ? Ano her ciuc I will recite of
ajoung girl who came a few years siro Irom
GeorKiu. Ahc was unable to get work, and
poiioned herself, the only alternative lett hei in
this ercat (Jut istian city being starvation or
shame. Anothor epitome l will give of the
wumc aud the wants and the sulfurums of
women an epitome of the injustice done to
lliete women by the law and ibe government
ofeicicty. A young girl came to mis coumry
Irom tnglnnd, seventeen jenrs ot ate. bho
came in ccmpany of a man to whom she Imd
fcen married, or to whom, at least, stto sup
poted she bad been married, for six months,
bhe lound that this man was uot her husband
tbat he hud a wile alrendy. She was penniless
and a ttrangerlna strange land, bhe had not
a irittd or acquaintai.ee in the world, hue
(outfit for work, her money being expended,
aud went to work tor a man who solicited her
to go into the country. This helpless child,
the stranger in a strange land, was taken
ill by a circumstance which befell her,
aid God kipwe the seciets of tbit
hour tbe torture it occaBioued. The people of
tbe house discovered ber mournful conditiou,
turned hi r adrift on the world, without friends
or acquaintances, her lust state boiig worse
than her first, tbe took shelter in a iodciug
bouse. The womau erave her a room tor money,
and went cot near bcr. Tnere she remained in
soliiaiy sufiertig during a severe winter. bc
became in due course a mother, and lived alone
by the little h'e tbat was breathing oat by ber
side. The child died; she was taken Into cus
tody aid condemned, aud now lies in the jail in
wy city ot Philadelphia with a halter above her
head. (Whilst recitine this passage the speaker
was mnch moved.) Ah, my triendn, look at it;
retolve that tiete things shall be abated, it not
destroyed. Help to bring about tbe day wheu
woman shnll have the means of earning au
honest livelihood; when crime and vice shall be
covered up by righteousness as the waters cover
tbe sea. (Applause.)
