Nay a woman equally earnest with the energetic females Who have lately advocated "Woman Suffhtgen before our astonished Milwauldeans be allowed to raise her feeble voice for a few momenta upon the sub j ect? Mrs. Stanton and her companions Worm has that we are a degraded and oppressed race, and have been so since the world be gan. Why have we not discovered it before? have lived a great many years and hay; hitherto been foolish enough to consider my self rather a comfortable individual. If I went into a crowded car. I always found a seat. Ira man insulted the there was always another man to knock him down. If I - wanted money I had only to go tansy father to get, It. But now Mrs. Stanton tells me i am oppressed and degraded, and I begin to think I am. What right had papa to go off to his office through the cold this morning and leave me at home to play on the piano and dam stockings? Why wasn't:l allowed togo to the cane= last tall and drink whiskey and make speeches f There is no inn in the world Mesita canvassing—l have heard men say so—yet I. was debarred • that privilege. To be sure , Vunutst was sick,aatime had no cook, but, dear met the fhte of our country was at stake, and it would have been my duty. being blest, they tell me, With " the gift of gab," to go ronlal and try to make , nll the men vote op the' right side. (leorgie might have eaten bread and 'butter for a week or two; it would not hart him. Now, that we am to have the right of suffrage, boys must learn not to interrupt their sisters over their newspapers and pamphlets ; they must cut their own slices and pull on their own mittens; we are to be their slaves no more. '; • Xrx_fitanton tells us, too, the morals of the age wilLbecome much purer as soon as we are able to make the men afraid of us. Of course they will. Moat of us are as big es men, and, the phy sicians declare, have much more power of endurance. Consequently, since coaxing and loving have.falled to cure them of their horrid habits, we must pitch in and lick'em! I used to think, before these ladies told me I was "oppressed and degraded;' that the man I married should be strong and noble, and know more than I did, so that I could lean upon htm and look up to him, finding a shield against the stomas of life. But now we are going to abolish the law of hive and by force. I find he would only be a tyrant. So I shall look out for a small man, rather weak in his intellect, whom I can beat with out much trouble, or argue down, In case he becomes fractious on the voting question. Mrs. Livermore told us a touching inci dent-in her discourse on Thursday afternoon, of a poor woman who fled to her house one night, with her face all lacerated from the blows of a brutal husband. When theyi feted to send for a policeman and have him taken away, the poor creature plead with all the energy of love; that they 'should not mo lest the wretch. "Re 'only got on a spree once in a while," said she, "and all the rest of the time was kind." What awful oppretk Mont What dreadful degradation 1 , If she had had her rights now, she would have turned on him and given blow for blow, or not strong enough tor that, have called in two stout policemen, sent him .to jali for thirty day's, and when he returned, meek and penitent, of course, lived with him hap pily forever atter. Force always does suc ceed when love fails, you know. What a dreadful mistake the world has been making all these centuries, to be sure! It has imagined that woman is to be the "ministering lager of man—not his rival on• the hustings. That she should tend the lit tle "limp-backed babies," planting ip their sot& the seeds of love and truth and rever ence—not an "agitator" stumping the coun try for votes. That he is to look to her, coarse-sonled, hard-handed, warm-hearted 'man that he is, as the blessed consotatrix, the per ionification of all that is gentle and loving and pure in that heaven to which she is the connecting link—not as to a dema gogue, loud-mouthed and brazen-faced. A dreadlid mistake ; to be sure ; yet somehow I cannot help regretting that we have found it out. Mrs. Stanton say s our presence will puri fy politics ; that When we go to the polls the swearing, drinking and fighting win disap pear. „ Bnt I wonder if the women most likely to effect this, r beneficent change will be the most apt to gc there. Theniodes4-dell cats ladies who shrink from public places— . will not their husbands and their own sense of propriety keep them away from the crowds of vile and -low that election day draws forth ? Or if they do go impelled 'by patri otic impulses, shall they not, hi time, lose the line bloom of their refinement; and from toachingpfteh become contaminated ? Ali Mrs. Stanton, and ladles of strong mind and primate, your motives, no doubt are honest—we will at leant give you eredjt for that much—but patue ere you cast fire brands of dissentlon into a million happy homes, remembering the old proverb," where ignorance is bliss 'tie fully to be wise ;" and as yet all women have not learned to consi der themselves-as oppressed and degraded. L. 3f. S. One of the most grievous errors of the past and present generation of American farmers, is the oldest insatiable thirst for more land. Not one 'in a thousand, though possessed of five times as many acres as ho can profitably or successfifily till, is 'satisfied. While this is perfectly natural, it is at the same time very unwise. The farmer recognizes his wealth in the multiplication of his broad acres; just as the merchant or banker does his iu the accumulation. of greenbacks ; but the differ ence between the two is, that the farmer may add acre to acre, without the ability to render the investment productive, while the mer chant or banker has no ditliculty in finding profitable investments for his greenbacks. It is always bad policy to buy more land, and give manure in If'omceoriathie droves to that' already in possessiog. The safe fuel sure guide for the farmer is to attempt the cultivation of no more acres Vann he can keep In a Tierfecr y good state, and every day's exp e rience demonstrates the fact, that with occasional exceptions, a little farm welt tilledmote profitable in the end than a large one indifferently cultivated. We once read s story of 5 4 Frenchman who had two daughters. One-of them married and received one half of the paternal vine yard as her duviry. To the old man's sur prise, the and( be.had reserved, receiving as much cultivation be formerly bestowed upon the whole, yielded es much as the whole had. The second married; and he gave her ofie-halfof what he bad left, and cull had as many grapes.from his remaining fourth as he used to get from the whole. Teem is &whole vellum of practical truth in this. Bulls anecdote. Its mortal:attempt the cultivation of no more land than you can cultivate well.—Jourant of the ALEX. WIIILLPIN, President..

At the first war meeting held In Galena tomes ter volenteerl, Mr. Wastiburne offered reso lutinna and •engineered the meeting, and Bandies made a speech. Captain Grant was present, but seems tohave been too inconspic uous to be called on to take part. At the sec ond meeting, however, Captain Grant was notniftated for Chairman. The first company raised elected- one Chetlain Captain, and Jesse Grant's partner, Collins, a Peace Dem ocrat, said to I'Vashburne, "A pretty set of fellows you soldier; are to elect Chetlain for Captain!" "Why not t" "They aro foolish enough to take him when they could get such a man as. rant."._ "What's Grant's hkdoryt' 'Why, he is old man Grants lion, was edu cated at West' Point, served in the army eleven years, 'and came out with the very heat reputation." Washburn immediately called upon Grant and invited him to go to Springfield. There Pope was the her? of the hour. Washlinrne urged Grant's'elines, and the latter had already applied to the Governor of Ohio, his native State, and to the Adjutant General of the Army at Wash ington, who had not ;S en the grace to answer his letter. •- Washburn with difficulty restrained him from returning in disgust to Galena. At length Grant was emplo yed to assist in Gov ernor Yates '- office, and i n mustering in regi ments. It is most improbable that either Wash bumc or Grant had any prescience of Grant's future success, as Grant himself is reported to have answered a friend who asked hini why he did not apply for a Coloneley : "To tell you the truth, I would rather like a regi ment, yet thereare few men really competent to command a thousand soldiers, and Lloubt whether I am one of them." Yates having appointed Grant Colonel of a regiment, he was indebted for his nest pro. motion to Washbttrne. The Chambersburg Outrage. From-the Valley Spirit.) On Thursday, about noon, a negro went to the house of Mr. Wm. M. Oliver, in GMltord township, about two and a half miles from this borough. Mr. Oliver 'ind his wife were both away from home. A step-daughter of Mr. Oliver, named Ida Reinhart, who is about thirteen years of age, bad also been at a neighboring house, but at noon went home to feed the pigs. She was in the, house get ting the necessary feed when the negro went there, and had the door kicked. He came to the door but she refused to admit him. He pretended to be hungry and demanded bread, threatening to burn down the house if she would not let him in. Terrified at these 'threats, she opened the door, when the black scoundrel seized her, threw her upon the floor and outraged her person. The little girl is pretty badly injured. The negro then .took with him from the housearazor belong ing to Mr. Oliver, and a small sum of money which was lying on a mantle. Mr. Oliver's house lies in a southeasterly direction-from town. The negro then left, and got around to, the mad leading from this borough to Scotland, in a northeasterly direction from town. About a mile from here a gentleman resides by the name of John Landis. The negro ac costed a little boy there and asked him if there were any men about. The boy said no. Just then a young lady naraed Lydia Detwi ler was seen passing through eaeld some dis tance off, and the negro went Myer towards her, and caught up to her about two hun dred yards from, her father's house, which is is -Greene township. Ile attacked her at once and 'accomplished his purpose, the ability. young lady resisting him to the best of her From there he went in the direction of Hr. Jacob Fry's house, and when within a couple of hundred yards of it, he met a young lady named Miss .Lealt Lehman. He attacked her also and a most terrible struggle took place. He struck her on the back of the head with a club, on the faco so that it is covered with black marks, and choked her so as to leave black and-blue marks upon her neck. In the struggle he took a razor from his pocket and drew it close to her throat threatening to kill her. She grasped the razor and broke the handle off, which she still has is her posses sion. Notwithstanding this heroic resistance, the black scoundrel succeeded in accomplish ing his purpose with this lady also. We un desitand that she is . still confined to her bed from the injuries received. . Mr. Oliver has since seen the handle and blade of the razor used in this last straggle and identifies it'as his own. On Friday, a negro answering the descrip tion given by the little girl and the ladies, I was seen in this town and was arrested by Mr. Frederick Householder and Mr. liicho- Jest Uglow under the - directions of Sheriff Fletcher. His name is Cain Norris and his residence is "Wolffstown." He was taken to the jail. On Friday night, between seven and eight o'clock, the fire-hell tapped and a rush was was made for the jail. In about ten minutes no' less than eight hundred, _perhaps a thou sand people were gathered about the building. The crowd seemed wild with exciternent!and anxious to obtain possmslon of the prisoner. But Sheriff Fletcher • refused to deliver' him up and expressed his determination to pro tect hlm. Several of our citizena made speeches urging the crowd to desist from the undertaking, but the Sheriff still fearing an attack called upon Captain George W. Skin ner of "the Housnm Mums" to come to his assistance. Capt. Skinner brought up some of his men with their muskets in obedience to the sheriff's requisition, and after the Chief Burgess bad interposed his authority also, the crowd left and went to their homes. ' On Saturday and Sunday nights, similar attempts were apprehended and the Sheriff, in conse quence, had . the jail guarded. - The Wife.

A New York cor respondent treats of how the "blessed baby" same and where it - came froth: I never was inside• of Grace Church but once in my life, •and that was' when Gen. Tom Thumb was married there to Minnie Warren, and the spectacle on that occasion was far more like a curious dramatic per formance than' a religions solemnity. Tom winked in my ace ea be 'grasped my hand when the nuptial rice yin over. and never looked more quizzical, except when - he showed me, a year or so afterwards, the Con necticut baby they had selected from afoul a dozen others as most like himself; to ex hibit as his own to the croatked heads of Europe. Ile laughed consummately, by the way, as he pointed out the infant in ques tion. "Tom," said I--and I shook m► head in a .ignifieant manner. "Can't help it," he responded, looking care fully around to ascertain that there were no listeners. "Biz is biz you know." Here I handed him another' cigar—for the little wretch was very _fond of smoking, :gl have seen; him many a time pick up and • se • crete for.luture use "the soldiers" thrown away by visitors, especially after all smoking on his part had been interdicted. "No go at home, you know," said Tom, when he WA light. "Couldn't expect it. But the thing's being advertised, you know, and we bound to show it np." "Exactly," I responded ; "you must be pre pared for any emergency." "Yes, and it doubles the price, my boy. What's more, the funds are all my own ttik time. Dad don't take all the profits now and give me 'so much candy." "Not while you have a wife, Tom." "A wife! Yes ; well, we won't talk about her now. I say"—and here he peeped about him very cautiously. ere became up to where I, was seated, and whispered. on tiptoe in my ears : "Do all Women, when married, get up their precious tempers?" I merely laughed in reply ; when he point ed to the baby. t. "Bay," said he, "what do you think of it ? Will it do ? Is it at all me r "A very decent likeness, Torn, where is its mother ?"

AN ITEM TO EE have probably all of us met with circumstances In which a word heedlessly spoken against the reputa tion of a female has been magnified by mali cious, minds until the cloud has been dark enough to overshadow her whole existence, To'thoso who are accustomed, not necessa rily from bad molives, but from thcmghtless new, to speak lightly of ladies, we recom mend these "hrnts" as worthy of considera tion. Never use a lady's name in an improper place, at an improper Mae, or in mixed com pany. Never mite assertions about her that you think untrue, or allusions that you feel she herself would blush to hear. When you meet with men who do notle to make use of a woman's name in a reckless se and un principled manner, shun them; for they are the very worst members of the communitv— men lost to every sense of honor, every feel ing of humanity. Many a good and worthy woman's char acter has been forever ruined and heartbrok en by a lie manufactured- by some villain, and repeated where it should not have been, and in the presence of those whose little judg ment could not deter diem from circulating the foul and braggart report. A' slander is soon propagated, and the smallest thing de rogatory to a woman's character will fly on the wings of the wind and magnify- as it cir culates, oath its monstrous weight crushes the poor unconscious victim. Respect the name of Woman, for your mother and sisters are -women; and as von would Nice their fair name-untarnished and their lives tinem bittered by the slanderer's tongue, heed the ill that your own words, may brihg upon the mother, the sister, or the wife of some fellow ermine. WIRT HE Gov.—A Committee appoint. by the Illinois Legislature to incestieute charges of corruption against members of their Wy, were about giving up foiled, af ter a most determined effort tofind oat &KW thing rotten to report, when they ,fortanate ly, as they thought, had a member brought before them who admitted .that he had re ceived "something fqr his vote." Upon this admission they instituted a most searching inquiry which resulted as follows: Question—You•have stated that you have, on a certain occasion received something for your vote.
