STRONG MINDED WoMEN-The folIwing is
from a writer for the Golden Era:
l have long wished to give vent to my
ideas about these ladies' Respect for the
sex has hitherto kept me silent; but as no
personal offence is meant, and the ladies
themselves have by their own 'act and decd
stepped forward and challenged public criti-
cism, do think | may put in my say with
out being accused of q want of courtesy
more especially since | believe am right in
my supposition-that the Constitution of
this free country allows every man, as well
as woman, not only to have an opinion, but
to express it also
| never was very intimately acquainted
with any of the so-called strong minded,
and, was going to add, that never wished
to be -politeness, however forbids me-but
| have watched their conventions and their
proceedings, have weighed the rights that
they claim against the rights conceded to
them as theirs, and only theirs, and, indeed,
taken every precauton not to bring down
the thunder of my wrath upon them without
due and impartial consideration.
| deny in toto their right and title to the
term Strong minded My idea Of strong
minded woman is very different to the usual
acceptation of the term. OF course, if some
are held forward as strong minded, it must
be in cantrast to others, and then Others
must be weak minded If these masculine
gad-about, lecturing women are the strong
minded Of the sex, then the weak must be
those whose devotedness to unhappy fallen
man is so great that no change of time or
fortune can change their heart no worldly
attraction or notorety force them from his
side, but make home their sphere-the sphere
appointed them by their Creator and a
home palace and by their example and
loving disposition by their lectures
reclaim and reform the erring, advance and
support the dignity of their sex, and become
as nearly angels of light and goodness as it
is possible for mortals in this world to be-
My mother, unfortunately for myself, died
when was an infant, and | was, Of course,
too young to entertain the least personal re-
membrance of her; but from childhood to
my present hour, during more than thirty
years of chances and changes of life, in sun
shine and cloud, in happiness and sorrow in
prosperity and misfortune, she ever has been
repeatedly in my most anectonate recollec-
tion, and | now feel thankful, grateful that
can think Of her as she was, a ministering

From the same.1

The following is from the San Diego Her
aid under the Administration of Phoenix
As an incident Of the election we are
told that late in the afternoon an elderly
gentleman, much overcome by excitement
and spirituous potations, was found like Pc
ter weeping bitterly, as he reclined on the
cold cold ground, behind the Court House.
Pm an old man, gentlemen sobbed he,-
and poor old man, and a id ugly old
man, and Ive gone and voted for Bigler :
Wei, you have done it, remarked one OF
the crowd, and with this expression of sym
pathy, the unhappy old fellow was left to
the stings of his conscience. A melancholy
instance of misplaced attachment.

Do LADIES who wear hoops know that
they were first invented by an unmarried wo-

has caused its adoption? Will they discard

THE TEAR of loving glri, says M@ser'
from the German, is like the dew'drop on
the rose; but that on the cheek o. a 'FN0 Is
a drop of poison to her husband. Appear
cheerful and contented, and your husband
will be so; and when you have made him
happy. YOU will become so, not in appear
ance but in reality The skill required Is
not so great. Nothing hatters man SO
much as the happiness of his wife; he is al
ways proud of himself as the source Of it.
Herein is contained my happiness; my
husband is my best companion, my children
are my Jewels my house is my home, and no
earthly pleasure excels that of considering it
domestic happiness center OF attraction
to my family, so that they are nowhere else
happy; a place, too, of welcome and CRATE

you ask us whence this thunder?
Whence that thunder from the mountains?
And that echo from the City
Near the bay of San Francisco?
We would answer most politely,
'Tis the voice of Gwinawatha,
'Tis the voice of BrOdercania.
In Convention Democratic.
Called by ordes of Committee,
Met the sons of "rule or ruin"
Met the friends of Gwinawatha,
Met the hosts of Brodericana.
In the onc-horse town Coloma.
There it was the great harmonious,
The unterriiied Democracy,
Swore upon a mighty altar,
Swore by many a mighty dollar"
Swore at Broderick, swore at Gwin,
Then at each other and everything!
And they called this swearing music,
Little dreaming that they'd hear it
Winding round among the foothills,
Echoed back from San Francisco.
But the harp Of Ell Dorado
Is the harp of San Francisco,
Is the harp of Phalanxania,
Is the harp of ofCalfornia,
And when they touch its mighty strings
And join themselves in chorus,
They think it music! Others ask,
Kind friends, twas it thunder"

Thank God for pleasant weather!
Chant it, merry rills
And clap your hands together,
Ye eXulting hills
Thank Him, teeming valley!
Thank him, faithful plain!
For the golden sunshine,
And the silver rain.
Thank God of Good the Giver
Shout, sportive breeze
Respond, oh tuneful river
TO the nodding trees.
Thank Him, bud and birding
As ye grow and sing
Mingle in thanksgiving
Every living thingl
Thank God, with cheerful spirit,

You ask me when Ia rend the scroll
Our fathers names are written DER,
When | would see our flag unroll
Its mingled stars and stripes no more
Nhen, with worse than telon hand
Or ielon counsels, would sever
The Union of this glorious land
answer-never, never, never
Think We that could brook to see
The banner have loved so long
Borne piece-meal DER the distant seq
Torn, trampled by lrenzied throng--
Divided, measured, parcellcd out
Tamely surrendered up forever
To crafty soulless rout
OF traitors never, never, never
Give up this land to lawless might.
To selfish fraud and william sway,
Obscure those hopes with endless night
That now are rising like the day
Write one more paga.of burning shame
TO prove the useless, vain endeaver,
Our race from ruin to reclm,
And close the volume never, never, never
On yonder lone and lovely steep,
The sculptor art, the builders power
A landmark DER the soldiers sleep.
Have reared lofty funeral tower
There it will stand until the river
That flows beneath shall cease to flow,
Aye, till that hill itself shall quiver
with nature last conyulsiye tmoe.
Upon that column marble base,
That shaft that scars into the sky,
There still is room enough to trace

And BREADTH before that hour OF shame,

Where patriots find a brothers. love,
And truth may shelter from throne

Tear our victorious eagles down
Before their mission is fulfilled
Dissolve the Union while the earth
Has yet tyrant to be slain
Destroy our freedom in its birth
And give the world to bonds again
Dissolve the Union God of Heaven!
We know too well how much it cost
million bosoms shall be riVen
Before one golden link is lost
Nay, spread aloft our banner folds,
High as the heavens they resemble,
That every race this planet holds
Beneath their shadow may assemble
And with the rainbow dazzling pride,
Our clouds that burn along The skies,
Inscribe upon its margin wide
llOPE, FREEDOM, UNION, COMPROMISE.
