Mrs. +. o. Smith then delivered, in a clear and
impressive manner an address upon the SUBJECT OF
Woman e ovation. She was we'll received by
that large assembly A copy Of her address will
be sent you 10 morrow.
Mr.. Hewlett, of Syracuse. did not come in to
speak, but wss impelled to do so by certain con-
siderations presented to him here. He could not
see why Woman ,hould not have the right ofrep-
re IentatiOn, aud Of voting; she had intellect
enough interest enough FOE the welfare OF the
race, aud moral character sui lent to enable her
to do so and more than all she had right to do
so. So he believed, and he hoped this matter
would be thOrou .hy discussed
Miss Stone moved that the resolution referring
to taxation be laid on the table, and the resolu-
ton first presented this morning be taken up for
discussion. She was then Loudly called for and
was welcomed with suhdued applause. The
rights Of the most enlightened and cultivated
mother and sister axe Inferior, by your political
arrangements, to those Of the mos drunken aud
degraded foreigner. You all know how this is
W0man's position is familiar to all of you her
legal existence suspended during marriage, be-
cause her husband owns her; her property, her
person become his. She spoke elOquently OF the
degradation Woman suffers in consequence OF her
Acknowledgement, and growing ont OF this, the de-
tendency Of the sex. Alluded 10 the feeling that
tanned as a helpless thing, 10 be owned and taken
care Of Her remarks were received with great
appreciation.
Miss Antoinette Brown, Of Newly rk, sue
ceedcd MISS Stone. She s1Oke of the popularity
of the different Characters Of the sexes and said
that considering this, man cannot represent wo-
man. He cannot understand her wants or make
ju,t laws for her. She said there needed to be a
blending of the different cularties OF the sexes
in order 10 a true harmony.
Mrs Rose differed somewhat from Miss Brown.
She said there was no sex IN moral qualities.
Virtue recognizes no sex, vice no sex. 30 10 has
been long viewed. Ii mind knows SEX then men
cannot represent women. Mrs. Rose spoke at
great length in her own peculiar logical manner
TO an audience deeply Interested, and was ffc-
Guenty cheered.
Miss Brown reptile to Mrs. Rose, not differ
ing from her essentially, and admitting that
strong argument may be made upon the humanity
of their common natures, ard that therefore she
hos the same rights that man has.
Miss Brown has passed through a course oil
collegiate studies at Oberlin Institute, and at
terward of theological study, preparatory to net
entering upon the duties Of the Christian minis
try, to which she feels called. She speaks very
distinctly and, with clear and calm enun cation,
makes her argum 'nts unans Serable.
Mrs. Nichols, of Vt, next took the stand, and
being evidently quite fayOrte Of the aud ence,
was listened 10 with great interest. she speaks
oil the lega ds0Dfitftrs Ot woman. OF tDe Al
OF her esttte, which she proves rs cOniscatiOn.
She neIt speaks of the necessity for the increase
of divorce cases. IlfdelIt, to the mIroage vow
has been found 10 be a Just ground for divorce bv
all good Christian people bur even ttey have neyef
found il right to cnt asundsr the lOgf earn7d by
both of them--to divide the estate in such cases
Mrs. Rose inquired il it would be IN order to
move the adoption Of the resolutions, but it was
decided best 10 lay them over until to morrow.
Mrs. Smith prescnted the following resolution
Resoired, TnsI the mofuted slave, wno I. c n
tented With MS lot and who would 10. % free, II any
such there be- only eiscs evidence Of tho dsptn OF hs
degedah1n; the woman wh) ls satisdst With her
inferior tchisu, svsriog that she mas all the rights
she wants, bit exhibits tbs ene.gshng effect ~ watch
she Is subjected.
Notwithstanding an admission fee, taken Mt the
DOOR Of - cents the llall Is crowded this r. H.,
with a deeply Interested and intelligent audience.
The create ST hospitality is ntnested by the peo-
pie Of Syracuse aud the noble city that strIa ged
70 brayely tor Freedom in the year that is past,
is alive yet to presentation OF her claim in dit
ferent aspect, aud for different class.
Adjourned till evening.
