EQUALITY.

Having had, from my earliest years Of

fellow mortal, and differing in not so
many respects, as he claims for himself,

is to be hoped that success may attend
this effort, and that many of our sex
who agree in my notions of the more
equal position of man and woman, will
come out with purse and pen,-some
having more of the one, others having
more of the latter,-to contribute their
share for the progress Of good cause.

present evils, properly attempted and
honestly conducted, will eventuate in a
final good work, although many object
that most Of these reforms 60 too far,

Luther's attempt for the Protestant relig-

Admitting all this, shall our arms be

caused me great amount Of suffering

TO regions Of unmentionable woe. And
even now, although it is some fifty or
sixty years ago, these false deIusions
have often clouded my thoughts with the
most gloomy sadness that Imagination

the former. Such as the ticking of "a

our house. and only sing his free, happy
strains in our ears, it was an unmis-

And when those charming birds would
come near our house and sing forth
their melodious strains for two hours, it
always filled me with the sadest fore

to me that death was very near my door.

Just at this period the attention OF
the family was called to an affair of a
different nature. Mr.. Bradshaw's eld.
est brother had died some years pre-.
viously. and made him his executor, and
also the guardian of his only daughter.
The interest Of the money was to be ap-
propriated to the young lady's board
and education, till she became of age.

suburbs Of London, and remained there

was proposed by her uncle that she
should take up her residence athis house.
AS his fair ward had, in addition to a
pretty face, the attraction of fifteen hun.
dred pounds, Mr.. Bradshaw had. dur.
ing those few months. several overtures
flor her hand; but, to the dismay of the
rival candidates, it was at length discov.
cred that Mr.. George Smithson, who
was amongst the number. was the ia.
vored individual. This circumstance
caused Mrs Bradshaw considerable un.
easiness. Unhappily for her own pros.
poets, she had no reason to alter the
opinion she had formed concerning the
young man. She foresaw that poverty
and misery must be the termination Of
the career he was pursuing, and he
trembled lest her neice should be in.

but he was deafto her pleadings. "Ca-

turned. II would not certainly have
any hand in making up the match, be-
cause people might say that wanted to

the use of the firm; but she shall cer-

judgment superior in such matters TO

then tried to delay a union which she
could not prevent. She represented to
her husband that if he withheld his con-

that time see how the young man con-

into full play. He was angry at what
he termed his wife's pertinacity in
groundless apprehensions, and persisted
in saying that he should let the young
people follow their own course. The
eresult was, that Miss Caroline Bradshaw
became Mrs. Smithson on the very day
that she attained her majority.

Ex-Governor CLEVELAND, Democrat from
Connecticut, yesterday delivered a Freesoil
speech in the House, in opposition to that Of
his colleague, Mr.. lKGERsoLI., the day before.
We are informed that Gov. CLEvELAND's speech
was very ultra, personal and indecorous.
Thus far in the session, the slavery question
has not been much agtated. But this speech
Of Mr.. CLEvELAsD's, and that of Mr. FOWLER,
of Massachusetts, the day before, have set the
ball in motion. As the elections approach,
members are looking to their own districts, as
we'll as to the Presidential canvass; and as a
seat in Congress is better than the chance of
Executive favors, there is danger that local poll
tics will triumph over national. 1t happens
accordingly that when Il Democrat in Congress
pronounces for the inality of the Compromise
Wing responds by procIamng Freesoil. So.
if a Wing goes for the Compromise, Freeso
Democrat rises to the combat. Then, ever and
anon, there comes from the States the mani
festo Of voices still for war; On Monday last.
Nj. SEWARD presented petition in favor OF
repeating the Fugitive-slave law, and moved its
reference 10 the Judiciary Committee. A mo-
ton was made to lay it on the table, and
against that motion voted Messrs. FISH and
SEWARD of New York, DAVIS, of Massachu-
sets, FooT and UPHAM, of Vermont and
WADE of Ohio-all Wings 1t will be re-.
collected that we were assured that Messrs.
FISH, FooT, and WADE, we're good Wing Union

the Compromise measures. Messrs. CHASE, OF
Ohio, DODGE, of Wisconsin, HALE, of New.
Hampshire, HAMLIN. Of Maine, and SUMNER, of
Massachusetts, of the Democratic party, also
voted agninst laying on the table. Here are no
less than eleven Senators for agitation-in fact
all of them for the repeal of the law-and almost
equally divided between the two parties and
this was one-fourth Of the whole number voting
and nearly majority Of the North. On the
same day, six of these Senators voted against

And if there is any finality to the Compromise,
that is it.
Now, let it be considered that Presidential
election is approaching, and that the vote of the
constituents of these above named Wings and
Democrats is deemed necessary to the success of
each of the candidates respectively. What will
be the consequence? Why, that the Presiden-
tial canvass will excite again to activity the ag-
tation of the slavery question. That agitation
will extend everywhere over the Union. Gentle
