PROSPECTUS.

EVERY cause which aims at great re-
suits, for good or evil, seeks its support
in the strong arm Of the Press. One of
the greatest questions of this age is that of
woman's true elevation. Papers devoted
to other reforms have, to a limited extent,
advocated the elevation of woman to her
rightful rank by the side of man. But
woman has not, in this country, a paper
devoted to her cause in this broad sense
this comprehensive view, which now ev-
erywhere il taking possession of the minds
of this generation.
Believing the time has come when such
an Organ should exist, breathing out the
heart, and speaking out in the defence of
woman faithfully and fearlessly, we send
forth our PIONEER, and propose to issue
it semi-monthly, at One Dollar per year,
in advance, payable OIL the reception of
the first Number.
We are aware of the magnitude of our
undertaking, and Of the difficulties in our
way. But the cause of woman is upon
our heart, and the burdens and duties of
her defence shall be our pleasure.
We are not the organ Of any sect, par
ty, convention or clan-we hold ouselves
amenable only to God and a good con-
science. We shall discuss the subject of

PIANos.-On Wednesday, we spent a
portion of the afternoon in looking through
the Piano manufactory and ware-roOms OF
Mr.. Lemuel Gilbert, 4l6 Washington St.
The place is worthy of visit from Dick
ems, for chapter in the Household Words.
No mechanical operation is more interest
ing than the making of musical instru-
nents, or, us it may strictly be called, the
manufacturing of music for the instru-
ment may be considered casket of music
kept for use. And among the contri-
vances for music none is more complicat-
ed and filled with the results of invention
and dexterity than the piano.
Mr.. Gilbert's is the oldest and one OF
the largest establishments in the city. He
employs from 80 to 90 persons, and pro-
duces about twelve pianos week. His
square pianos will compare well with
those Of any other manufactory, and the
designs on his metal plates are the finest
we have seen. They are executed by
Ball Hughes, and are worthy of his skill
and taste.
But what particularly distinguishes this
establishment is the manufacture Of Mr..
Gilbert's Patent Boudoir Piano. In this,
by two patented inventions, and various
little improvements, he has succeeded in
combining the strength and durability of
the grand piano, with beauty and COM
pactness of form and qualities Of tone Pc
culiar to ITSELF This instrument has now
been manufactured about four years, and
used in the different latitudes Of the Uni
ted States, several being used in steam
boats on the Mississippi, and they are
found to wear excellently in the coolest
and warmest parts of our climate. The
action is brought to high degree Of per-
fection, and is under more complete con-
troll than that of the grand.
We can freely recommend those who
wish to purchase pianos, to visit Mr.. Gil
bert's establishment and we have no
doubt those who visit it from their inter.
est in musical matters, will have their
curiosity gratifed with entire good will
and courtesy.-Boston Commonwealth.

/ Hogarth's Picture Of the Red Sea-
HOgar,h was once applied to by a miserly
old nobleman, to paint on bis staircase a
representation Of the destruction of Pha-
raoh's hosts in the Red Sea. In attempt
ing to fix upon the price, Hogarth became
quite dissatisfied. The miser was unwil-
ling to give more than one half the real
value OF the pictures. At last, Hogarth,
out Of all patience, agreed to his pstron's
terms.
Within day or. two, the picture was
ready. The nobleman was surprised at
such expedition, and Immediately called
to examine il. The canvass was painted
all over rel.
'Zoundsp said the purchaser, what
have you here! ordered a scene Of the
Red Sea-
The Red Sea you have,' said Hogarth,
still smarting to have his talents underval-
ued.
sBut where are the Israelites!'
'They are all gone Over.'
'And where are the Egyptiansl'
'They are all drowned
The miser's confusion could only be
equalled by the haste with which he paid
his bill. The bitter was bit.

woman's oppression and degradation by
the character of the labor to which she Is
subjected, the beggarly wages paid her,
the cast which places her in ten thousand
instances beyond the reach of intelligence,
excluding her from the higher institutions
OF learning, and the professions for which
she is SO well adapted Since man, in
the formation of his early mind, is the
creature Of her hand, bearing the stamp
Of her image forever, no intellectual cul-
ture to which man can attain, should be
withheld from her-nor can it b., but by
the perpetration Of crime, the measure
of which has revealed itself in the past.
The disabilities and legal burdens which
society imposes upon woman shall be laid
bare to the view of those whose right il is
to claim equal justice to all.
These wrongs will continue until wo-
men demands their redress. Who better
than herself can press that demand!- p
They who have not the heart and the will
to demand their own rights, have little
cause to complain Of their loss.
We do not believe ourselves possessed
of all the wisdom in the world, or that our
efforts will exhibit all the perfection and
strength which is looked for in old estab-
lished journals, but our editors are wO-
men who have long stood in the front
ranks of reform.
Progress is the watch-word of this age
Onward is written on the face of Socie-
ty. The lightnings Of thought by the
steam of the press, are producing revOlu-
tions never before dreamed of in the in
tellectual, moral and political world.
Why then shall half the race be con-
tent to drag out a slow existence in the
beaten paths of the dark ages Why be
the slave of fashion-Of false education
-of ignorance, inferior estimation and
condition! II cannot lie SO longer. AL
ready a mighty movement has begun-its
course is onward-no earthly power can
stay it. Woman will rise above her own
acknowledged weakness, above the ideas
Of inferiority which now depress her
above the Indifference and opposition Of
a large portion of her own sex. TO aid
her in this good work is the design Of our
words of cheer to oppressed woman in all
conditions of life-the i0orking classes es-
pecialy!
Its columns shall contain a variety of
miscellaneous, interesting and general in
telligence, such as will commend it to the
family circle. The young shall find in it
pleasing and profitable lessons Of inorali-
ty, education and virtue.
Having thus briefly hinted at some of
the objects which it is in our hearts to
pursue, we confidently ask the co.opera-
ton Of our many friends, in forwarding
their names and the names of others, as
subscribers. We have undertaken our
work after much deliberation, and with
such assurances of aid as warrant US in
hoping for good degree of success.

Huk Beds.-No one who has not
tried them, knows the value of husk
beds. Straw and mattresses would be
entirely done away with, if husk beds
were once tried. They are not only
more pliable than mattresses, but more
durable. The cost is trifling. To have
husks nice they should be split after the
manner of splitting straw for braiding.
The finer they are split, the softer will
be the bed. although they will not be
likely to last as long as when they are
put in whole. Three barrels full, we'll
slowed in, will fill good sized tick,
that is, after they are split. The bed
will always be light, the husks do not
become matted down like feathers, and
they are certainly more healthy to sleep
in.
Feather beds ought to be done away
with, especially in warm weather. For
spring, summer and fall, husk beds
ought to be all the CO. and such I'm.
doubtedly will be the case when they
are brought into use. There is no bet.
ter time to procure husks than when
corn is being harvested, and the husks
will be much nicer and cleaner when
the corn is cut up at the bottom and
put in stocks. They do not become so
dry and weather beaten. 1t is calculat.
ed that good husk bed will last thirty
years.

A Good Mans Wish.-I freely confess
to you that would rather, when an,
laid down in the grave, have some one in
his manhood stand over me and says
There lies one who was real friend to
me, and privately warned me of the dan
gers of the young no one knew it, but
he aided me in the time of need | owe
what am to him : or would rather have
some widow, with choking utterance, tell

and found you, my son, an employer, and
you, my daughter, happy home in vir-
tuous family say that would rather
such persons should stand at my grave.
than to have erected over it the most
beautiful sculptured monument of Parian
or Italian marble. The hearts broken
utterance of reflections of past kindness,
and the tears of grateful memory shed
over my grave, are more valuable, in my
estimation, than the most costly cenotaph
ever-reared.-Dr. Sharp.

Come now my dear Wine.Cup, must bid you
adieu,
Tho my heart is distracted, at parting with
you,
Thought to have added new star to my crown
But my speech which meant should the Maine
Law put down.
But now, Mr.. Webster, the death-blow has
given.
NV "speech" he has proved it was wanting in

SO he picked it to pieces and strowed it around
Like the spile of the Rum Cask, he threw or

A most unconstitutional Lecture he gave.
Ah! me, must die. there is nothing to save,
i or sure my dear Wine Cup, cannot survive
80 thee,
Cold water will never so often revive me,
So now must BID thee, lasting farewell,
For the friend of perdiuon is ringing my knell

Where our kindred spirits together may dwell
