HoRsEwHIPs FOUNDATION OF MORAL
REFoRM.-Why not! Are we not assured
that slavery is the corner stone Of our Repub-
lican edifce, and is the idea of horsewhips
being the foundation of moral reform one
whit more strangel And beside, we have
the authority of George MeDuffee, ex-gover-
nor of South Carolina for the one, and that
Of Mrs. Swisshelm, editor of the Pittsburg
Saturday Visiter for the other, who says,
1--WE would undertake, with one stout
man and a good HoRsEwHiP, TO reform more
drunkards than Mr.. Cough did, or ever
will"
This does not, 10 be sure, accord with our
ideas of the philosophy of moral reform, but
shall we therefore deny that horsewhips in
the hand Of women, and pistols and bowie
knives in the hands OF men, are mighty
through God for the overthrow Of the strong
holds Of sin. We doubt whether reformets
generally will be as ready to go for ultra
h%orsewhips as is Mrs. Swisshelm. Mercy
on us what a figure she would cut on hel
moral reform mission with a horsewhip and
a stout man racing the drunkards through
the streets of Pittsburg, the dogs barking ant
joining in the chase, and the delighted boys
shouting " Go IL, Jane :"
However much her subject might be dis
posed 10 submit 10 her flagellation with chris
tian grace, they would hardly know how K
do it, for although the scripture says, "lf
man smite thee on the one cheek, turn to hin
the other also," we believe the Gospel makes
no special provision for a case of this kind
"a woman plying a horsewhip.
But 10 he serious. 1t is no wonder tina
with society as II is, men, to promote thei
own selfish purpose, should resort to horse
whips, branding irons, letters, and other ap
planes Of brute force, but it is a cause 70
establishment that woman should advocate
system Of redemption for her equal brOthe
from sin and vice through the saving merit
of a horsewhip! Flog Gods image TO reform
it! As well might the wheel and the racl
be used for instruments of conversion, an
the stake and Caggot to promote eternal sal
walton.

THE CONSTITUTION A~NTl.SLAvEEY IN IT'S
READINe.-Frederick Douglass. in a recent
number of the North Star, says the Conslitu-
ton Of the u. S. if d" construed according to
its reading" is not a pro.slavery instrument {;
but, that as it was designed to be pro-slavery
by those who framed it, was received as such
by the people who adopted it, and is so re-
garded by the judges who interpret it, it be-
comes a pro-slavery instrument which he
cannot swear to support. There is no ques-
ton between him and other Disunionists as
10 the intent Of the trainers, the understand.
ing Of the a~dopters and r~atifiers, and the in.
depreciation Of the judges and if it is true
that the document construed according TO
its reading is not the covenant with death
and agreement with hell" we have long be-
lieved it to be, we should like to have it made
clear TO us, and we presume there are thous.
ands of others who would like to learn how
an anti-slavery reading can be given to those
clauses which Disunionists generally regard
as pro-slavery. We should greatly rejoice to
know that the Constitution can be read so as
10 be against slavery instead of for slavery,
and should more rejoice to know that it is
anti-slavery in its design and application, bu.
have yet seen nothing TO convince us Of Ell
Their of these things.

"ONcE \ SUBJECT, ALwAYs \ SUBJECT"
Horace Greedy recently asked leave to pre-
sent to the House a resolution, instructing
the Committee on the Judiciary TO inquire
whether there was anything in the laws or
judicial decisions Of this government which
countenances the d~espotic doctrine of g once
a subject, always a subject" Leave was
not granted him, so the resolution was not
presented. We should like Congress to pass
an opinion upon this matter; for if men,
from the circumstances Of their birth, are 10
be e%ternally bound 10 this government, it is
time the fact was known, and this doctrine
of predestination faithfully preached. For
our part we believe in lree-will both in reli-
gion and politics, and Of the possibility of
falling from grace in the one, and the ami
hiIation Of citizenship in the other.

with fear and trembling.

CoNGREss has now been in session about
three months, at an expense of money-to say
nothing Of norals-which it is dreadful to
think of. And what have they done to pro-
mote the general welfare, to elevate mans
character! But little though it is true some
few good acts have been passed. But has
the good it has done been sufficient to iusti-
fly the immense expenditure of the peoples
money which the creation and continuance
Of that body involves? We suspect that if
arithmetic was resorted 10 TO determine the
question, il would be found that Congress
sioral Legislation is a dear bought article, and
that they who purchase it pay too much
for the whistle"

Sale at Rochester.

Some Of the friends who had charge of
the Fair at Massilon, concluded that they
would expose the goods not sold there, at
one or more Of the towns in that neighbor-
hood. They were accordingly taken to Ro-
chester, and the reception given to those who
accompanie them was truly encouraging
A commodious room was procured for their
exhibition, and all the p%ianoes in tow were
p%roffered for the occasion; the loan of one of
the best was accepted, G. the instrument used
to good effect. A large number of the citi-
zens were in attendance, and about $50 were
taken, which, under the circumstances, we
consider was doing admirably. From
what we can learn, this result is in a great
measure, TO be attributed to the efforts Of
Maria l.. Giddings and Cornelia r. Cowles,
who were indefatigable in their labors.

THE ERROR AND ITS EXPIA-
TION.
by GRACE GREENWOOD.

W, large and furnishing village,
and county seat, in the Western part of the
State Of, was visited by regular tor
nado Of speculation, in the year 1915
Thcn, every holder of a portion of land
large enough for cabbage garden consld-
cred himself a CrUsus III chrysalis-small
Couus-A RothschIld III prospective.
In all W, there was but one man of
property who was not infected by this
strdn.e mama. TINS was Stephen Harton,
a merchant and large landed proprietor
who, by natural genius for money-making,
careful thrift, close dealing with all men,
and especial hard dealing with the poor,
hal anlssed Il prInceIy fortune, which he
was too vase to pnt ia jeopardy by that per-
ilouS game Of speculation, the termination
and coiseqa Of which he but too sure

Ine wealth Of Stephen Harton, while it
gave him influence aud certain position,
had ialied to make HIM gentleman. He
was coarse III his manners, aud in all ways
OF thinking, but filled with vulgar jealousy

Mrs Hlrton was woman of an amiable
temper, but of limited underst ,ndinp; thor
ougnly worldiy-mlnded-giyen up to fash
ion; one who almost weItled her own life
out IN IL vain and terrible struggle to be

wrote the name, j. Alexander, was, at the
time have chosen for the commencement
Of this sketch, an iole, concelted coxcomb

time for his defiant lawlessness-a charac-
tersllc which his fond parents regarded as

Strangely unlike all these was the only

as she was most frequently called-a sweet
blooming girl of fifteen, lnherIting neither

Professional Life.

The ambition of adopting professional
life" is the source of countless instances Of
misery. Every profession is overstocked;
not only the prizes are beyond reach, but
the merest subsistence becomes difficult
"The three black graces-law, physic, and
divinity" are weary of their innumsrable
worshippers, and yearly sentence crowds Of
them to perish from the aching sense offail.
ure A few glittering successes allure the
multitude of eager aspirants, and the more
foolish parents of every aspirant set down
the bauble as gained when they have plum
ged their unlucky offspring into the sea OF
troubles which men call the world. But
thousands have died of broken hearts IN
those pursuits-thousand who would have
been happy behind the plough, or opulent
behind the counter--thousands IN all the
desperate and thankless struggle look upon
the simplicity of manuel labor with perpetu-
al enyy and thousands by worse fate still
are driven to the necessity, which degrades
the principle of honor within them, accus-
toming them, by administering to the vices
of society, to gain the livelihood which was
refused to their Legitimate exertions.
