Won ems Rights.

The Editor of the Laporte Times, in the
last issue of that paper, speaks in the follow
in9 very sensible manner of the claims of the
strong minded women: eh
The "strong minded" have been holding a
convention recently in Cincinnati, and we
see from the Sentinel that many of the lead
ing women who have gained notoriety, If not
fame in the cause, are now at Indianapolis
How long before these aggrieved ones will
look to the right source for information re-
specting their ''rights''-and learn that the
question of the relation of the sexes, and their
proper position toward each other was settled
in the higher courts, long before their agita-
ton had begun.
The suggestions of nature themselves are
sufficient guides to the truth; and emanci-
pate by what human laws You may the civ
ilized women Of the world from the dispari-
ties of which these "strong minded COM
plain, and they will occupy as sex, a SINH
lar relation, by virtue of their organizations,
and the creative idea ont of which they
sprung. The building, whether it be pal
ace or a prison, is the outgrowth of the idea
of the building, first existing in the mind of
the Architect who designed chem; and the
ideas of the two are as different rs the created
things; differing for the same reasons.
So each created thing in nature presupposes
the idea of creation in the divine mind, and
each difference in the thing created implies q
difference in the idea, and for a reason. The
reason for the creation of horse is not the
same as for the creation of man; and so of
a woman--and of the different races ofman-
kind as we'll The "rights'' of each created
thing is subject to tie reason of its creation,
and are only to be implied from lis adaptions
or born capacity, aud natural or primary re-
lation to al other things The relations Of
horse to man are easily understood and no
one disputes them. The relations of the
woman to man, and consequently her rights
are as easily settled, & upon the same immu-
table principles. We beg the pardon of our
lady friends for having used the horse as an
illustration: but be it understood that we do
not regard the relation of woman toward man
and the things around her as being an infe-
rior one-but only rs different even though
infinitely exalted. 1t is true, there are
women, so masculine in their nature as to
bring the fable of the Amazons almost into
repute of reality-whose capacities seem to
indicate scarce distinction in their rights,
fitting them for surgeons, or for soldiers, and
disaualifying them for mothers at the same
time-but these are the exceptions, and only
90 to offset the effeminate soft handed dress
loving gentry, whom we are inclined to think
will change places with them in the other
world; they do not destroy the law or dis
turb the facts.

ryring it Again.

A New York paper comments thus, serere-
ly, upon Mr.. WYKoFF, whose "Courtship

indeed almost pity that he should not sue

death the other. On such matters it were

The brothers in the great cause OF Niger
ism, the editors of the Madison Courier and
the New Albany Tribune, love each other
very much. The Courier editor deals the
following compliment to his cotemporary,
which we must contend is undeserved, for il
IS not difficult to see that MILTON GREGe has
been driven into the fold, and is rapidly be-
coming first rate Abolitionist:
INDIANA ELRcTroK.-A friend has fur
nished us with 4 number of Milton Gregg's
New Albany Tribune, in which there are
elaborate calculations and rows of figures to
prove that the result of the election is owing
to the general apathy and 1--WE would say
criminal) indifference of the members of the
American party. These, Mr.. Gregg says,
stayed at home-did not vote; hence the ia
vorable result for the bogus democrats.
Unfortunately for Mr.. Gregg's calculations
but fortunately for the credit of the Amerl-
cans, there is no such American party IN the
State of Indiana as described in the Tribune.
Since the disruption of the Grand Council at
Philadelphia, and the sec, ssion of the
Northern members, Mr.. Gregg has adhered
to the fortunes Of the pro-slaverys or South
ern fraction of the order; and when he writes
Of or about the "Ameriean party" it Is fair
to presume that he means that fraction As
we have said, there is no such American
party in Indiana-the resolutions of the last
Grand Council of the State proves this. In
July last the American party. though it pre-
served its separate organization intact, and |
of ths Republican party, did !
not Interfere with or seek to control it; hav-
ing lost all hope of agreement with the pro-
slavery fraction, it indicated desire to act in
good faith with the outside opponents of the
bogus democratic party and within the Re-
publican organization. We believe that
hey have, where they have acted, performed |
heir part of the implied agreement in good
aith. 81 r e.ral.s-f -..-eff

Party Names.

1t lis curious to trace the history of party
names in this country. The Democratic
party has never changed its name. From
the origin of the government it has steadily
mics have often attempted TO fasten on it
ONE odious title, but have never yet sue
ceeded.
But the party opposed to the Democracy
has changed its name so often that it is diff
cult to keep posted up in the changes. In
olden time it was the Federal party In the
contest between General JACKSON and JoHN
Quincy ADAMS, the opponents of the De-
mocracy chose to be called National Repub-
licans. Under JAcKsoN's administration
they assumed the name of Wings. One year
ago they sloried in the name of the Fusion
party. Now they are attempting to assume
the name Republican. The next name will
probably be the AJolition party. No matter
what name they assume, they will hardly
make IL long respectable. The only name
ever rendered respectable was that of Whig
The old Whig party was an honorable ant
highly respectable party. II numbered
among its advocates many Of the ablest ant
best men of the nation, or, indeed, of tn,
age; but the party seems now disbanded, ant
the most worthy members of it arc wheelin;
into the Democratic ranks. The Democrats
party never stood so well as now. We hav
got rid Of all the unreliable, and have re
ceived accessions from the disbanded Whig
of the choicest and most substantial member:
We have really made some very good ex
changes.
