Mn. EDlTok ;-l.4s, Saturday the good
people.o this town we're invited to hear
lecture lioa, Lucy Stone. About one hun
dred persons, three iour,hs OF whom were
women, assembled IN the Gong. Meeting
house to hear Miss Lucy ten ofthe.lcs4
woes Of women.
She Is a young lady ,'slou, and helhLfnl,
wiih large, round, red face, and features
Of a masculine cast, no, wanting, alogelh
or. 10 good looks. She was dressed IN close
pants, and black garment resembling
a irock-coat, a vest ,and, slightly, a woman's
gown. Her voice Is pleasant but has
,wang peculiar 20 "relonners". She iaRs
very vel as whit woman cannot y bul is
not mn nraior. whstevfr her admirers may
say. 10 the contrary. TO produce the De.
sircd.eif Ct she was obliged to qui, logical
argument. AMI resort 20 womau's logic Of
smiles, vii, and dnlcet tones Of voice ,hat
mako the crowd, be mute .ihn seems to en-
Jry oddiiy, ana whatever shows a lisror nd
% custom She seems to b. most hlppy
talking to the people from pulpit,
because she then attracts public aitcnt ION.
IN spite Of the general intelligence, and
elevated moral charcier Of the people Of
this town, Lucy'- doctrines find several
disciple here. Their, are a few per-
sons haro who dsbelieye almost everything
Z except hum5ae, and @ho, since the days
Of Orsou Murray, have made it their bnsl-
ness to believe in, aud preach some new
thing -, such as Non-resisiancc, Infdelity
Mliensm, Womans rights, and Spiritual
rappngs. Radcalisir in politics has been
followed by radicallsm IA religion aud by
social d.ecurd and humanity customs.
Lucy said she was a discont n,ed wo-
/ msn and wanted 10 see that part OF the
/ Declaration Of Independence carried out
which sgys that governments derive their
jus, powers from the consent Of the gov
orncd." Slc was ashamed Of those women
who were 50 degraded that they did no, de-
sire 10 vote, &c. She piiied conlcnted
Wouen. lrishmen, negroes, and drunken
mea could vote, and she though, women
/ quite as capable Of taking care Of the public
( interests a. such mrn. Al the bad innuen-
