LOVE OF OFFICE.

Queer men must have lived in the days Of Gov
ernor Winslow and Bradford, if we compare them
with the generations now upon the stage. just
think q moment of men so averse to holding office
that compulsory laws had to be enacted relating
thereto. The authentic record informs us that in
1893 our Puritan Fathers enacted a law requiring
that any person who should be elected thereafter
to the Office of Governor. should pay q fine Of
tloenty pounds sterling if he pould not serre
Strange, indeed. it seems, when we view the scram-
bling after Office that characterizes the present
age. Fine them for being unwilling to wear the
honors The trouble now is to find a candidate
who is content to remain unchosen. By "book or
crook" each eligible one is determined to secure
the office. 1t would be quite a new thing under
the sun to see our administrators at Washington
imposing a fne on those who refuse to share po-
litical promotion. Their perplexity now is, among
the army of Office seekers that infest head quart
ers, to decide who shall he the fortunate individu-
ais. Neither is it q trivial perplexity. We imag-
ine that they are often at their wits end" to
know where to bestow tie bauble. A host Of
hands are up to catch it, while only one can grasp
and hold it.
Governor Winthrop says in his journal-"Mr
AA"oiu -" NOW" Va Ey"-
outh, Mr.. Bradford having been Governor about
ten years. and now BY importantly haring got off"
By importu,ity-pleading entreating. beseeching,
and praying not to DO elected. 1t becomes a!mos,
laughable to think of political wire-pullers inpor
tuning their friends to pass them by and leave
them uncursod by Office. We imagine that Of the
hundreds who besicge the dispensers of civil hon.
ors, q great portion of them have to be Emporium
ed to 60 home and be content to live iu obscurity
for which they are singularly fitted.
There has surely been a great change in this re
gard since the days of the Puritans. Nor is it
change for the better. For this insane strife 70
political distinction leads to chicapery aud fraut
Of the darkest dye. l. has introduced dement's o

WoMAN,s RIGHTS.

We publish, on our frat page, a wellwritten ar
ticle upon this subject, from the pen Of Mr.. II.
b. Vincent, Of Chagrin Falls. The article con-
sains much truth, and, as the author has but re-
Gently been married, is presumed to possess a pc
culiar interest. Our readers will do well to give
H. careful perusal, il they cannot agree with all
Its positions.
The idea advanced by Mr.. Vincent, though not
new. seems to us absurd; and that is, il women
could vote and hold Office, the world would soon
be revolutionized for the better. Intemperance
and Slavery would vanish, and peace end love
everywhere prevail. There is, perhaps, as much
diversity Of opinion among women as among men;
and we have no reason to believe it would be other.
wise, ii they should exercise political power. AS
they are the greatest sufferers by intemperance,
they might possibly do away with that evil, though
Il is by no means certain. But, in regard to Sla-
very, we could net hope for any better state Of
things than now exists. Southern women look as
favoraLly upon the peculiar institution" as
Southern men, and are as righteously indignant
at the conduct of the Black Republicans. Sensi-
tive, benevolent, humane, they may be, and very
many of them are; yet they are creatures of edit
cation, and believe that they can show the greatest
Kindness to the slaves by keeping them in their
present condition. Does any one suppose that
they would vote the Abolition ticket, while their
husbands, faith srs and brothers, are all pro-slavery
men Whether they would or would not, Of
course, does not affect the right that is another
question.
Mr.. Vincent will enjoy the privilege Of voting
in company with his wife, whenever a majority of
the women shall demand the elective franchise
As yet, they have not done so; but whether they
ever will, the future must acknowledgements
