dosirous of expressing unitcdly, our high ap-

her scientific attanments, her intellectual and
moral worth, her unassuming manners and dig

1t affords us the highest satisfaction to re-
cord such evidence of the success of Woman
in sphere of labor for which she is so cmi-
ncntly fitted by her education and personal
worth. After laboring for years in the Anti
Slavery cause, and taking their full share of the
opprobrum arising from the Misrepresentation
of enemies and the row-mindcdncss and envy
Of profcssed friends, Mr.. and Mrs. Jones found
themselves too poor longer to continue their
public eXertions in that field and while the
one resorted to his trade a. a means for earning
the competence so desirable to all, the other felt
constrained, at no small sacrifice of personal
and maternal inclination, to qualify herself by
months of hard study to labor in a sphere which
promised such remuneration as would enable
her to aid her husband in procuring a HOME
that they could call their own. In doing this
sho necessarily incurred considerable expense
and could net but feel some anxiety for the re-
suit. Wc rejoice most heartily that her hopes
and not her fears arc being realized, and trust
that her success in this new sphere may put to
shame the enyious stinginess which begrudgcd
her and her devoted husband the compensation
they received as Editors of The Buglc, and the
Ignorance or meanness which attributed their
zeal in the anti-slavery cause to the operation
OF selfish and pecuniary considerations. If the
burden of the slaves wrongs could have been
cast off by them as easily as it has been by many
of their traducers, they might have left The
Busleto itself years ago, and in other spheres
Of labor earned for themselves houses and lands,
OF which they are now destitute.
1t is proper to say that we make these re-
marks without the knowledge of Mr.. and Mrs.
Jones, who may perhaps be paincd by such an
allusion to their private affairs. We speak,
however, not to vindicato them, but for the
sake of the cause, and hope they will pardon us
for doing SO.
