THE DAILY EVENING TELEGRAPH PHILADELPHIA WEDNESDAY, MAY 19, 18G9. THE BEDUSDAyCY OF WOKEX. From th Lmuinn Hatnrday Itrview, Mr. W. K. OrcS has puMI-lied a short ram flilct, ronipresMiij; into a few paces an aiiru mcnt upon that Krct question Of tho day. What nro wo to do with our women ? No one will bo disposed to dony tho importance of tho liroblom, or tho urgent iiecd of treating it in a rational manner, lor tho most part tho various agitators who cnlarze upon the mibjcct are jrlvon to tho sentimental or rhetorical point of view. They wax eloquent upon tllc cTils which result from the exclusion ot women from the elevating and hiimanii'.iiif; inlluences of Ktujlish eleetiouH; or they denonnee the frivolous luxury of our upper clauses; or they paint tlio delicious repose of uiind to he found within the walls of a convent; or they ileserihc a happy millennium when Indies will compete with men for siiert'ss in the learned professions. All these modes of attacking the question may lie legitimate and we have no ob jection to the expenditure of any quantity of eloquence, so lonjr as an nudicuco can be ob tained but lor the niot part they have the dis advantage of leading to no very definite result. We have nn uncomfortablo suspicion that asjreat ileal of satire will have to be expended before women ecaso to bo extrnvivrant; and wo doubt Whether admitting Indies to a general sernmblo with the stronger sex will necessarily make them cither better or happier. The first requisite for nn intelligent dirfeiisMon is to understand, as pre cisely n possible. wliHt is tlio evil to which this chorus of lamentation is owing, and wo may then form some guess as to the working of the pro posed remedies. Mr. dreg's argument has the merit of suggesting one cause which, if by no means adequate to nccount for the whole evil, is nt least n very ellieicnt one so far us it goes. Ho starts from statistics sup plied by tho Registrar-General, which iifford a good tangible basis lor argument. According to the report of that authority, in 1851 there were in Great Britain, out of c'verv. 100 woincu above 20 years of aire. 57 wives, VI widows, and 30 spinsters. In England and Wales, the whole number of women between 20 find 40 was n liulc under 3.000.000; and of these 1,284,000 were unmarried. Alter making allow ance for tho excess of women above men in tho whole population, and assuming that a good many of these 1.248.000 would marry, Mr. dreg calculates that thcr are at least "7.)0,000 un married women who would not of themselves have chosen a single life. Exact statistics arc not ascertainable in problems of this delicate kind; but we may safely say that there is a multitude of women to be counted by the hundred thousand w ho could not marry if they tvould. This, according to Mr. dreg, is tho anomaly which it is our business to cure. Now, as we shall presently remark, we cannot take this for a complete account of the dlllleulty. There are many other causes which probably concur in producing a certain discontent in the female mind. i'Mlitieal economists ami statis ticians arc apt to assume too easily that all the evils of human society are to be explained by a few tables ot figures and ingenious sums in the rule of three. Vet the facts noticed are not the less important; and it can hardly be doubted, both that there Is a considerable excess of un married women, and that such an excess is cer tain to produce some veryserious evils. Women would in all probability insist upon having souls, and occasionally meddling with polities, even if a spinster aftci twenty were as great a rarity as the Nova Scotia giantess. The great social changes which are daily taking jilace would affect the position and sentiments of women even if the proportion between the numbers of the sexes were constantly adjusted with mathe matical nicety. But some of the greatest exist ing dillleulties are aggravated, if not entirely produced, by this simplu fact that the supply o'f the female sex enormously exceeds the demand; and if that could be remedied, the remaining questions might be adjusted with a better pros pect of speedy success. Such a very practical and tangible evil naturally intensifies any dis satisfaction founded upon other grounds of complaint. How, then, is the surplus female population of these Islands to be absorbed ? What aro we to do with this army of spinsters, whoso enforced celibacy is an evil at once to themselves and to society ? Tho answer, according to Mr. Greg, is tolerably plain. In the lirst place, the normal proportions have been very much disturbed in England by emigration. Therefore we should export our surplus of women to places where there is a surplus of men. This will take olf, eay, a third of our female supernumeraries. Another third may continue to be properly em ployed, ns at present, in domestic service. The task of disposing of tho remaining third is more difficult. The removal of their sisters will doubtless make their labor more highly prized, and lead to a considerable improvement in their general position. But, to secure a thorough remedy, luxury must be discouraged, and mar riage rendered" more attractive to both sexes. To prove the advantage of emigration, Mr. Greg calculates that in tho United States and the English colonies there is a deficiency of women above twenty amounting to over 400,000. There nrc indeed certain special diniciuties in ;nis case beyond those which attend all plans of emigra tion. Thus, for example, it is perfectly true that there is an excess of men in the United (States, but this excess only exists in the more newly settled States. In Massachusetts, for example, in 1800 there was an excess ef women over men of about 40,000 in a population of 1,200,000; whilst in California, at the same time, there were only 105,000 women to 270,000 men. A female emigration to California would tmdoubtcdly bo a great blessing to tho country; but tho emigrants must be prepared to en counter hardships which are suilicieut to deter the women of tho Eastern States. A governess in San Francisco would probably have a good time of it, and, if so disposed, would find a very favorable marriage-market; but it is not every woman who would be prepared to take up her abode at the diggings, and to run the risk of being scalped uud converted into nn Indian Bquavr. Iu short, it is obvious that such an emi gration, though corresponding to a very real need, would require most careful supervision. The solution of the problem carried out by Mr. Brlgham Young, and stamped with the approval of Captain Burton, docs not quite meet the prejudices of Euro tea n society, or it would be the most direct remedy for tho ex isting evils. This, however, being out of tho question, so far as a Government scheme of emi gration is concerned, there must be a considerable doubt as to the possibility of exporting our female population in anything like the numbers requi site to meet Mr. dreg's suggestion. If wo could Bet down half a million English women within a verv limited period iu Canada and Australia, it is possible that the colonial demand for so de sirable a commodity would be u good deal more than sntislied. The dillleulties which obstruct emigration generally would be felt with tenfold force in an emigration of so peculiar a character. V. mn ,., ddlllit. that, witlllll certain limits, tllC omi.rriiii.in nt women, as was proved on a small Bcalo bv Mrs. Chisholm's exertions, is a most desirable thing, but the question of how far it can be extended is by no means simple, and is I part of a wider inquiry thau can be touched upon in tuis place. , ..., f.wim.H ml nits that, under ull con VJl. lllliv. vu ...... , i ceivable circumstances, a further remedy would be rennired: and this remedy, when wo look into it. is little less than JV .i ...,f ,;r. nf t m Tiublic morality If men would ceaso to bo vicious, nud womoii to be frivolous; if we did not insist upon butlers and footmen, cosuy aim parties, and visits to expensive watering platen, I , ..! . ..t f.,ji.,n won i nutate tho at' ml- ouUe "in its lairaetlve and not in its repellant body om'ht to marry; aim u puupiu were content to live as simply ?nd ccouomica y ' .r - , . i.. f-n,n.,v nn Switerland. half tlio a9 " "w re felled from matrimony by toBkMd V the witlonal habit of lutoxt fear of the expense might help to re uiiee mo r el i ' i,i. harm is caused in cation, nnd reformers suggest, with the air of original discoverers, that everybody should bewomo sober. Tho suggestion Is admirable, If rather obvious; but unluckily It only leads to the further question, how are drunkards to bo in duced to become sober? Society Is undoubtedly over-luxurious In many ways; we spend a groat deal moro than people do abroad without se curing more real comfort or even elegance; wastefulness has long been ono of our most marked, national vices; and when it is combined with a singular want of taste, tho results aro not edilving. A good many young men aro, we my believe, deterred from marriage by the fear of expenses which, under a bettor sytein, would be unnecessary. What is tho euro for these tolerably notorious evils? Mr. Greg recom mends us to besimplc and economical, buturewe more likely to be so because Mr. Greg recom mends it ? Clergymen have preached, and jour nalists have been satirical, and reformer elo quent, but the cril persists and even increases. As wealth accumulates luxury does not tend to tall olf. and even a distinct demonstration of the resulting evils will fnil to check so deeply sentcd a tendency. Where arc we to fiud tho necessary leverage for upsetting an abuse which has been the topic of declamation for centuries? And hero occurs an additional complication, which Mr. Greg does not mention. The young men who will not marry because they prefer a club lile are, after all. a small minority of the population. The class from which they spring contributes a fraction, numerically trilling, though socially conspicuous, of the great army of spinsters; and there is another evil precisely the opposite of that which he denounces, llcckless marriages produce a surplus popula tion, from which tho men nrc drafted olf by emigration. The pauperized class multiplies without forethought, and fills our streets with women to whom u decent household is an Im possibility, and who swell the ranks of the vicious classes. The unfortunate governesses who excite Mr. Greg's commiseration are fre quently the daughters of the well-known curato w ho marries nnd has ten children on a hundred a year. The sons go to the colonies, or find some sort of occupation at home, nnd the daugh ters arc left to swell the competition and beat down the value of feminine labor. If our popu tion increased ns slowly ns that of France, there would be less surplus labor, and consequently the most helpless part would not be loft behind as a residuum to subsist upon charity, or hardly earned wages, or worse. We have "no desire to defend the luxurious habits of the upper classes, which may probably do something to make marriage less common: but if everybody took Mr. Greg's ndvicc to-morrow, and young aristocrats supported families upon i'llOO a year, it would not follow that our women would bo less redundant. Tho first result would be an increase of the population, which in a very short time would add still more unemployed females to the existing crowds. Mr. Greg Is too good a political economist not to admit the influence of ftiis cause. In fact, it falls in only too easily with tho other influence upon which he has "mainly dwelt. A grievous want of prudence and self-restraint causes the population to multiply unduly, and forces a number of persons, cither because they lire abso lutely poor, or because they can't get as much as their habits demand, to be thrown into a depen dent po-it ion. If we all clutch too greedily at any enjoyment which conies within our reach, a "good many will bo thrust on one side, and the weaker sex will naturally get the worst of it. The remedy, to come back to that question, must "be sought iu the agencies, religious, moral, and intellectual, which we may hope arc gradually improving civilization, and mav some day introduce a less reckless love of display in the higher classes and more self-restraint in the lowest. Subsidiary remedies, such as emigration, may do something, and arc worth more careful thought than has been given to them. But we must look for a more radical cure in the gradual extension of education in its highest and widest sense, and especially in anything which tends to make women, without losing their feminine qualities, more rational and less hopelessly childish. How that is to be done is, we need hardly say, a very wide question, and the value of such "observa tions as those which Mr. Greg has published lies chiefly in the assistance which they give to ob taining public recognition of the greatness of the ta.-k to be undertaken. A Model Englili ItustUisig; Com pany. A further contribution to the history of Bar ned's Banking Company has been published in the shape of a report drawn up by the creditors' representatives Messrs. A. Ashton, G. Bahr, and T. Cope. It appears that of the 40,000 shares orgiually issued, only 1 1,000 were taken by bona Jiilc shareholders, "the remaining 20,000 standing in the "names of adventurers, specu lators, and clerks without means or resources." The .40 call has produced .t'bo2,500, but nothing whatever lias yet been obtained in respect of 12,300 shares, representing A'4'J2,000, the holders of which are stated to bo mostly absentees or nominees. A statement of the liabilities nnd atisets of Mr. L. B. Mozley shows that the former amounted to t'o40,72S, and tho latter to X,0; those of Mr. C. F. Mozley to 19,010 and 132 respectively: while the liabilities of Mr. Charles Mozley nrc put down at 230,304, nnd the assets are estimated at 23,000. Tho framers of the report complain that soon after the stoppage of the bank Messrs. Mozley and their friend were permitted to execute deeds, thus stifling investigation, nud also notice the fact that on the very day that the bank stopped Messrs. Mozley appear in the cash book ns hav ing drawn 1000 "for their quarter's services 'u the management of the bank." With regard to the issue of liquidation, it is stated that it was estimated the assets would realize 850,000, but a sum ot only about 100,000 lias yet been ob tained. ROOFING.
