Address to tho Women of America.
In the capital Of our country we have
this day organized a central society for
the suppression of extravaganza, the di-
minution Of foreign imports, and the
practice Of economy in all our social re.
lations. To this society we have given
the name of The Ladies' National
Covenant" Its object is good and
generous one, which should inspire spirit
of patriotism worthy Of women who are
the glory OF great nation. For this
society we have an example aud precedent
at once august ana encouraging.
In I71O the women Of Massachusetts,
actuated by the same impulse that
inspires. US, assembled in the city
of Boston, as we have met here, and
resolved to serve the country by an effort
of seli-sacriice lar greater than We are
called upon to make.
On the 9th of February, three hundred
matrons, each the mistress of household,
met as we do now, and signed "A pledge to
abstain from the use Of tea, the greatest
luxury of the time, and the very life Of
all the social gatherings fer which our
New England ancestors were SO famous,
Three days after, twice that number Of
blooming young girls met in the same
place and sigucd the pledges from that
brave asscmolage of women non-importa-
ton societies sprans up, that produced
an effect upon the mother country almost
equal to that created by the success of
our revolutionary armies. Daring all
the terrors ofthc war, these noble women
held firmly to their pledges, and by their
earnes,ness awoke the sympaty and coop
Grafton of every sister col-ny in the land.
The spirit thus aroused extended itself to
imported goods Of all kinds, and every
hearth-stone was turned into an indcpcud-
ent manutactory. Thus it was that the
fax-wheel, the hatchet, and thc hand
loom became sublime instruments of free
dom in the hands OF American womer.
The house mothers Of seventy.six not only
kept their pledge of non,importation, but
with their own hands wrought from the
raw material the garments which clothed
themselves, their husbands. and children.
The pledge which they took, and kept so
faithfully, evoked not only great self
sacrifice, hut, hard toll, such as the
women of the present day scarcely
dreamed of. Had they not endured and
labored, while their husbands fought, We
should have had no mighty Union to pray
