hw the 2T. T. Thau.lacy Stent oa the Eight of Women to the Elective
Franchise.Last night, in Mozart Hall, Mrs. Leer
Stosh! delivered the fourth of the courseof lectures in aid of the "Shirt-sewer- s andSeamstresses' Union." Her and ienee wasTery large, and frequently expressed itsappreciation of her remarks.
learn that woman's rights and humanrights are the same thing, and that all thathas been meant by it is that woman, as ahuman being, ought to take rank withother human beings, and that in the rangeof human duties, from the highest to thelowest, whatever was fit to be done byanybody, might be done by woman, if shecould, worthily and well, and should neverbe out of her sphere. The sphere of woman, is snouia do remembered, was a
- thing arbitrary and fictitious, made nowby thi3 thing and now by that, and differ-ing in different countries and ages. Goodmen and good women had been wont tobelieve that the things which were rightand proper if they were done by men, werenot right and proper if they were done bywomen, just as though the sex and not themotive that lies behind the act gave amoral character to it Eat the true sphereof woman, if we let her have fair clar.would be found to be just the highest, andthe noblest, and the best thfishe couldwork out, and her sphere so filled wouldcot make her less womanly, less worthyto wear the high vocation God gave heras woman, and mother, and wife.
But some might say the sphere of wo-man was made by nature, and not custom.Let them interrogate all time and see.Here woman is admitted to worship withmen. Among other nations we foundthat men shut her out from their places ofworship, saying that neither women, nordogs, nor any other unclean animal shouldbe allowed therein. There she is out ofher sphere. In India she dare not eat inthe presence of her husband. . There, also.is sue ous oi ner spnere. Here she is outof her sphere in being denied the electivefiranchise. In the hour of the sufferingsof our fathers, when the war of the Eevo-lutio-n
began, the fact was universally pro-claimed that the power to rule is in theJieople, and that governments derive theirjust powers from the consent of the gov-erned. For this principle our fatherspledged fortune, life and honor. Then,caving achieved so much for themselves,speaking better words than they knew howto act, they turned round to make slavesout of black people, and to deny to womenthe right of suffrage. When women haveasked for the elective franchise again andagain the "lords of creation" have toldtaem, "wny do you want it ? we will pro-tect you," with the most patronizing air.Doubtless multitudes of them meantkindly when they said so. But it wouldbe necessary to turn to the record to seewhat was the protection given them, andwhether women should not ask
for themselves. In the history ofthe past it had never been a fact that oneclass of persona had ever legislated wiselyand well for another class. It had beenjust so of women. Men who called themmothers, sisters, wives men who are law-makers from Maine to Minnesota, hadcovered the statute books of every Statewith such laws, that if they were writtenagainst men, men with the spirit of manand the right to make war, would be foundfighting against them as the Free Statepeople of Kansas are now strugglingagainst those who would deny them theright of suffrage. How, when the ques-tions of freedom were being agitated morewan ever, it was well to ask where isChristian Democracy, and what is the rea-son that the right of suffrage is not grantedto women? The man who argued againstIt because his dislike to have his mother,wife or daughter mingle with rowdies atthe polls, must forget that the rowdy isthe man left to make the laws to whichthat mother, wife or sister is to be sub-jected. The self-mad- e and nt
man would tell us that women are notcompetent to exercise the right of suffrage
that they didn't know enough. "Well,perhaps he does know something of thoticket he holds in his hand and, per-haps, he don't. And yet, whilst thermsdenied to his daughters, who have beeneducated in all the accomplishments thatmoney can purchase, the intelligencenecessary to cast a vote, go down amongtne Irish foreigners everywhere, who don'tknow the difference between A, B and C,and could not read the word "vote" ifthey tried, and thesa ar allThey know all about it I Then there wast large class of people who had not thepower of thinking, who said that it wouldnnsex Woman; that she would be Womanno longer; that her household and herchildren would be neglected. Eidiculeand sneers were thus resorted to when noJgument could be employed. But if thepolk were such bad places that Womancould cot co there. than w tv.-- , , .place where they could vote by them-selves, and if there were decent men tovote, let them vote where the women did,but let the rowdies vote by themselves.As long as any white human biped of 21years of age had the right of suffrage, itwas not fair to say that women were not35K aV0T JS; ?fc came m from man
beenlaid in the arms of a motherwhose love neither time nor absence couldever alienate, to say she should not havea equalnght to the exercise of the auf-trag-e.
.The man dishonored his motherwho said that women, In order to vote,would forget her household duties andneglect her children. Mrs. Stoxe nowcaaa to consider some of the results of

taxation and reprobationZlJTn ePs 111 ws case of wo--JQla TAen ? poor woman, who hasbeen taught to keep silence, but is startledby the position taken against her, asksJhj in her case representation should notfollow taxation as well as in his. To this,he states further that the idea that taxa-tion and representation are inseparable,when it concerns half the human familva new-fanel- notion which h v.- -heard her broach, but is only put forwardry a few factious women who are seekinglor notoriety, and who are wishing to dis-turb the order of things. But suppose shefays sha declines paying the taxes ? Heays : "Know you not we have the power
tax you, and yoa must pay." Andthousands of women tea their taxes gath-ered from them, whilst the truth is heldop so beautiful and so radiant by thosewho exact the tax : "Taxation and repre-sentation are inseparable," - And so says

man says: "What next, if I am to betaxed without, representation ? What ifI change my relation as a single womanand become a wifa V "Oh," : says theman, "that is a new partnership; and thereii but one partner ; the husband and wifeare but on person and Jim that one 1
Laughter. Ee puts' his finger on thePss3g3 la Blaclskcm which says, "The
husband and wife are but one person inlaw, and tha legal existence of the wife issuspended during the marriage." Sus-
pended! She stands there to listen. Itmay not smother the breath in her bodyas you do to men when yon suspend them,but het legal existence is suspended. Sheis merged, and there is Blackstone for itwith the Tery same word. . Her legal ex-
istence is merged in her husband, and somerged in him that it follows her all theway down to her very grave, and on hertombstone insults her memory by writingthere that she is the relict of somebody- -a piece of the man she was merged in.Laughter. "And what becomes of my
name ?"Your name shall be my name, says the
husband, on the other side. "And thechildren's name 7 shall be my name, also,says the husband, and I shall be the keep-
er of m own body, too. We have legislated for that. We take care of ourselvesand we have the custody of you. If youchoose to stay with us, it is very well ;if vou don't we will make you I Laughtef.l
The lecturer went on to discuss the lawsregarding woman's control or lack of con-
trol over her property, real or personalShe made a passing allusion to Kansas,and found fault with the framers of theFree State Constitution for refusing to givewomen the right of suffrage.
Secondary to the raain subject shetreated of the social tyranny to which wo-
man is subjected, and described her as be-
ing either a drudge or a Flora McFlimsey,the one too severely taxed by her laborsto arn a living, to have time either tocultivate her own mind or bring up herchildren judiciously ; the other rendereduseless and helpless for herself or herchildren, by the tyranny of foolish preju-dices under which, as Theodobe Pabkebsaid, her only choice is between a husbandand nothing, and sometimes it is betweentwo nothings at that !
She asserted the right of woman to suf-frage because of the interests of the race ;inasmuch as men and women alwaysmaintain the same level, and when thelatter are restrained in the free exercise ofall their gifts and faculties, the former willexhibit a corresponding narrowness of in-
tellect and laxity of moral principle. Inconclusion, she demanded for woman theright to a collegiate education, admissionto the bar, the pulpit and theffeench, seatsin Congress as representatives, and eventhe Presidential chair, and expressed herutmost confidence in the beneficence ofthe result. . : She was warmly applauded.
The English Bill!The following is a copy of English's
Bill, as it passed Congress and became alaw:
Whereas, The people of Kansas did, bya convention of delegates, assemble at
on the 7th day of November,18o7, for that purpose, form for themselvesa constitution and state uovermnent,which Constitution is Republican ; and,
Whereas. At the same time and placesaid Convention did adopt an ordinancewhich asserts that Kansas, when admittedas a State, will have an undoubted rightto tax the lands within her limits belong-ing to the United States, and proposes torelinquish said asserted right if certainconditions set forth in said ordinance beaccepted and agreed to by the Congress ofthe United States ; and,
Whereas, Said Constitution and ordi-nance have been presented to Congress byorder of said Convention, and the admis-sion of said Territory into the Unionthereon as a State requested ; and,
Whereas, Said ordinance is not accepta-ble to Congress, and it is desirable to as-
certain whether the people of Kansas con-
cur in the changes in said ordinance here-after stated, and desire admission into theUnion as a State as herein proposed, there-fore
Be it enacted, That the State ofKansas be and is hereby admitted intothe Union on an equal footing with theoriginal States in all respects whatever,but upon this fundamental condition pre-cedent, namely : That the question of ad-
mission with the following proposition inlieu of the ordinance framed at Lecomp-to- n,
shall be submitted to the vote of thepeople of Kansas, and assented to by themor the majority of the voters voting at anelection to be held for-tha- t purpose,namely : That the following propositionsbe, and the same are hereby offered tosaid people of Kansas for their free accept-ance or rejection, which, if accepted, shallbe obligatory upon the United States andupon the said State of Kansas, to wit :
First That sections numbered sixteenand thirty-si- x in every township of publiclands in said State, and where either ofsaid sections, or any part thereof, has beensold or otherwise been disposed of, otherlands, equivalent thereto, and as contigu-ous as may be, shall be granted to the saidState for the nso of schools.
Second That seventy-tw- o sections ofland shall be set apart and reserved forthe use and support of a Stato University,to be selected by the Governor of saidState, subject to the approval of the Com-
missioner of the General Land Office, andto be appropriated and applied in suchmanner as the Legislature of the said Statemay prescribe for the purpose aforesaid,but for no other purpose.
Third that ten entire sections of land,to be selected by the Governor of saidState, in legal subdivisions, shall begranted to said State for the purpose ofcompleting the public buildings, or for theerection of others at the seat of Govern-ment, under the direction of the Legisla-ture thereof. T
Pourth Thai all the salt springs withinthe said State, not exceeding twelve innumber, with six sections of land adjoin-ing, or as contiguous as may be to each,shall be granted to said State for its use,the same to be selected by the Governorthereof, within one year after the admis-sion cf said State, and when so selected,to be used or disposed of on such terms,conditions and regulations as the Legisla-ture shall direct ; Provided, That no saltspring, or land, the right whereof is nowvested in any individual or individuals, orwhich may be hereafter confirm sd or ad-
judged to any individual or individuals,shall by this article be granted to saidState.
Fifth That five per centum cf the pro-ceeds of the sales of all public lands lyingwithin the said State, which shall be soldby Congress after the admission of saidState into the Union, after deducting allthe .expenses incident to the same, shallbe paid to said State, for the purpose ofmaking public roads and internal improve-ments, as the Legislature shall direct;Provided, That the foregoing propositionsherein offered to the State of Kansas shallnever interfere with the primary disposalof the lands of the United States, or withany regulations Congress may find neces-sary for securing title in said sale to bonafids purchasers thereof, and that no taxshall be imposed on land belonging to theUnited States, and that in no case shall
nt proprietors be taxed higherthan resident.
Sixth And that said State shall nevertax the lands cr property of the UnitedStates. - ' : . ... .
At said election tha voting shall be byballot, and by indorsing-- cn his ballot, aseach voter may please, "Proposition Ac-cepted," or "Proposition Rejected."Should the majority of votes be cast for"Proposition - Accepted,? the Presidentof the United States, as' soon as the factIs duly made known to him, shall an-nounce -- the same by proclamation, ndthereafter, and without any turther pro
ceedings on the part of Congress, the admission cf the State of Kansas into theUnion on an equal footing with the origi-nal States, in all respects whatever, shallbe complete and absolute ; and said Stateshall be entitled to one member in theHouse of Representatives in the Congressof the United States, until the next censusbe taken by the Federal Government.But should the majority of the rotes becast for proposition "Rejected," it shall bedeemed and held that the people of Kan-sas do not desire admission into the Unionwith said Constitution, under the condi-tions set forth in said proposition; and inthat event Vte people of said Territory arehereby authorized and empowered to formfor themselves a Constitution and StateGovernment by Hie name of the State ofKansas, according to tne x ederal Consti-tution, and may elect delegatesfor thatpur-pose whenever, and not before, it is ascer-tained, by a census duly and legally taken,that he population of said Territory equalsthe ratio of representation required for amember of the House of Representatives ofthe United States; and whenever thereaftersuch Delegates shall assemble in conven-tion, they shall first determine by a votewhether it is the wish of the people of theproposed State to be admitted into theUnion at that time, and, if so, shall pro-
ceed to form a Constitution, and take allnecessary steps for the establishment of aState Government, in conformity withthe Federal Constitution, subject to suchlimitations and restrictions as to the modeand manner of its approval or ratificationby the people of the proposed State, asthey may have prescribed by law, andshall be entitled to admission into theUnion as a State under such Constitutionthus fairly and legally made, with or with-out Slavery, as said Constitution may pre-crib- e.

Gloomy BefUctions of a dsonionist.The New Orleans Bee of a late date has
the following sombre reflections on theresult of the recent elections :
"Black Republicanism may well shoutan exulting pa? an. Connecticut has fol-
lowed hard upon New Hampshire, andgoto with a rush against slavery ; while,unkindest cut of all, St. Louis, a Southerncity of a Southern State, has, at its recentmunicipal election, reiterated its semi-aboliti- on
sentiments by the election ofthe Free Democratic ticket. Truly, theKansas measure has proved a disastrousblow to the South. Intended, as its ad-
vocates proclaimed, to settle the questionof slavery, and quiet agitation, it has gen-erally renewed discord, strengthened freesoil, and hopelessly divided the only par-ty that claimed an odor of nationality. . . .
"We are afraid that these Spring elec-tions are portents of gloomier tidings here-
after. We apprehend that Pennsylvania,and Illinois, and Indiana, which by unri-valled tact and unwearied exertion weresaved in 1856 from falling into the FreeSoil quagmire, will return to their wallow,and that before the expiration of the pres-ent year every State inthe Union, with the possible exceptionof California, will rally under the victo-rious standard of black republicanism.The South then will be in a certain andabsolute minority, and may vainly look tothe North for sympathy or succor. Whenthat period arrives, we shall be glad tolearn of these who are constantly dinninginto our ears their devotion to the Union,what course they propose to pursue?Shall we submit, and trust to the justiceor the mercy of the Northern anti-slaver- y
men, for the preservation of our rights ?Shall we remain in the Union until anopportunity is presented of finally testingtheir repeated assurances that no moreslave States shall be admitted t Or shallwe make preparations for a crisis thatseems inevitable, : and taking our standupon principle, put forth our firm resolveto resist any overt act of aggression ? Thetime is not distant when these questionsmay be pertinently asked. In the interimlet the Southern nationalists revolve themtt their leisure, for an answer will beshortly required." "
