WoMAN's EMPIRE.

Women educates the heart, man educates
the intellect and in this fact consists the
chief element of her superiority as an educa-
tor The education Of the intellect without
that of the heart may make demons; for the
understanding. when divorced from the affec-
tions, is fit only 20 produce such monsters.
But woman, when properly qualified for her
mission in the world, happily combines the
heart and intellect, SO that neither is trained
at the expense of the other, but both are ed
ucated In the most perfect unison. Man may
educate the heart, but this is not ordinarily
his part as an educator The heart is more
especially at Woman's disposal. Aud no one
is so eminently endowed by nature with all
the important qualifications for the entire
work of education as woman. She teaches us
TO love What man teaches us to believe. She
ingTafts upon our affections what man i'm
plants in our ,memoies. She leads to honor
and virtue by inspiring in Us an admiration of
all that is good and true; he inculcates the
theoretic principles of an honPTable and yir-
tuous life as the subject .of thteilectuaI appre-
kension. She is the sunshine of the soul,
oomprehending both light and heat, to illum-
mate and vivify all the souls activities; he is
the sunshine of the Intellect, radiatingt spleh-
dors upon its researches after truth, but splen-
doTs which are, tooaOften, cold and chilling as

SPEECH or TEE zEory: DANIEL s.
DICKINSON.
a Democratic Statesman Speaks to
the Democracy.

Delivered at Tunkhannook, Pa, Monday, Aug. 10
Mr.. PRESIDENT AND, LADIES AND GENTLE
MEN; Amid all the diversity Of sentiment in
our land, there is one subject upon which we
car agree and that is, that our country is in
most lamentabe condition-our Govern
ment threatened with disruption, orr Const-
tuition with subversion, and our institutions
with overthrow. We are met here for the
purpose Of discussing the great interests of a
common country, and Of determining what
becomes us in an exigency so srying and SO
fearful. | meet you here not to discuss Sa-
very or Anti-SlaYery. Though an Old Line
Democrat, brought up at the feet of Gamaliel.
and adhering with tenacity to the principles
of Democracy through gu active life, yet
ccme not to speak to yen upon political parti-
zan subjects. IL come to discuss matter that
concerns our Union, one that rises far above
and shoots deeper than party interests or is
sues. We have q duty, my fellow citizens, far
beyond that of the fathers of the Revolution.
They were oppressed by tyranny, and they
sought to throw off the shackles Of a despotic
monarchy. They hoped that great and free
Government would spring up from their pat
riotic efforts, but the most sanguine never in
agined thut Government so replete with
good would be the fruits Of their beginning
What with them was hope, with US is fruition
they planted, and we reaped. Their expert
ment has become great success, and we are
enjoying, or might enjoy, such blessings as
Heaven never before vouchsaled TO mortal
man. But conspiracy has appeared strife
and division are. ct our doors; and it becomes
us now to see whether the fruits CT this great
and beneiicent Union must be lost or whether
! they shall be preserved. 1t were needless to
20 back TO review dead and buried issues
There is a great fact staring us in the face.
and with that We have to deal 1t matters
not whether The origin of our difficulties was
North or South, or L ,st OF West-the ques-
tion is, How shall it be dealt with aad disposed
Of In every government, and especially in
every free government, political parties will
arise. And 1t is well that We have them. So
far from being curse, when restrained within
Legitimate bounds they are a blessing. The
strife of political parties, like the agitation OF
the natural elements, rorie1s he moral aim ns-
phere, and gives life. and vig,r, and freedom
to our institutions There are some questions
too great, some too small, tor the exercise o
Iliiita parties; ar,lwe have macy duties to
diecharge in the various relations of life that
do not appertain topoIit,cll aiflirs, but whi ch
we should come together and discharge, as
American citizens, as brethren Of one tie, ono

We recognize in the patriotic action of the

the lofty spirit that animates the masses of our
countrymen who are still loyal TO the Stars

in the old Bay State is in correspondence with
that Of the Republicans of Ohio. The Post
has advocated the policy in the Northwest,
and in al sections Of the country, of forgetting
party differences ard disregarding party pros

The Lousl,:'l Daily News !I;-s this view of
the real meaning Of the southern rebellion:
Hitherto, while its evils were admitted
slavery was defended in the South on the
ground of its necessity. Now it. is declared
to be absolutely right, a new moral truth, the
centre or cornerstone Of a new state, the
symbol and wa tchword of a rev and sanguin-
airy crtsaj!e. The deepest wrong and most
cruel injury that man can possibly inflict on
his fellow is formally consecrated as right.
while heaven is proIancTy invoked in its de
fence. The Que social curse which destroyed
free and noble nations of old, and which mod
ern civilization has repudated as essentially
destructive Of national life and progress, is
now, for the first time in history, proclaimed
as the one grand principle of The new Confel-
Grafton. Such a state, were it possible TO sci
it up, must be the permanent enemy, the nat
ural foe, OF all free peoples,
ITO talk Of coming to an understanding
with such a state. Of living on terms Of amity
and peace with it, would &c out Of the ques-
tion. SHct state jr0nds the nation of free
dom as fqlsefood, and stigmatizes industry
as disgrace. The moral influence of a free
and industrious people would be more fatal to
it than the sword : than any display of mere
material force. It's policy must be violent
and aggressive in mere self defence. 1t would
be essentially by nature, constitution and ne
ccssity, fiibustering and piratical. This is the
