"lt Is not an uncommon thing since
Wendell Phillips, Horace Greeley and
the leaders of the Abolition party have
undertaken the abolition Of Slavery, and
the equalization of the races, to see a
white lass hanging upon the arm Of a
gentleman of color. And at the rate We
are progressing in the advocacy Of negro
equality, and the determination of our
white male population in the army, it
will not be long unul we shall have ss
much of mong,el race as the Mexicaus."
L Dcs Moines Statesman.
The Copperhead press seem dreadfully
worried over their apprehsnsions Of the
progress of amalgamation in the North.
They are familiar with the story Of ANAL
gamation In the South, aud are we'll
aware that there is scarce plantation
there which does not furnish ''living wit
nessee," in neither black nor white, of
the prevalence of the practice.
They boast Of their membership in q
party which elected Dick johnson to the
Vice Presidency OF the United States,
with entire knowledge that black slave
woman was the lawful wife of his bosom,
and the mother Of his children, and that
be portioned and married his miscegen
daughters to white men, members of his
own party.
:
There is nothing Questionable in
slaveholding and Southern miscegenation.
That is sanctioned by the practice Of the
Democratic aristocracy of the South, and
and is entirely CONSTITUTIONAL by virtue
of the "imprescriptible custom" of s.man-
aging their own domestic institutions in
their own way"
It's not, then, the "crossing of breeds''
that the Copperhsads object to; it i.
rather the mode and locality of tse pro.
cess. They are not wiling to conced.
the same privileges to Northern "mud
sills" that they award 10 Southern slave
holders in regard to their domestic fan
cies. Beades, the editor Of the De

THE GATE CITY
FRIDAY, APRIL 22.

A SUBJECT ron INVESTIGATION.
There is very strong feeling in Chris.
tian Europe and America agaihst women
appearing as prominent acssss u public
matters, or engaging in ayoeatioss ol
business outside Of the domestic circle
or the milhner shop. This feeling a,
tends not only to unssitable avocations
for females, but to suitable, - we'll. and to
all alike. for that matter, though custom
has familiarized u TO bear With their am
ployment in certain exceptional depart
ments Of the world business.
Istbis prejudice or sentiment the result
of a high state Of christian culture and re-
fnement? Is it the contrast to the state
of savage and barbarous customs, where
women are the drudgeslfor the lords of
creation, and do all their work. Or does
the sentiment grow out of the same con-
dition of human nature which prompts the
luxurious and effeminate people Of the
East to exclude their women from public
places, and makes them invisible to man.
kind, save in the domestic circle.
Whatever may have been the origin
of the prejudice, or the sentiment, the
time has come when the whole subject
demands revision, fresh investigation
and discriminative and liberal Limitations
in regard TO the imposition of the ban
OF exclusion of females from employment.
The improvements Of science and the
demands of war have increased the de-
mand for labor, and drawn almost exclu.
slyely for supply upon the male popula-
tion. The cost of living, the limited
demand for female labor and the pitifuf
pretence of compensation therefor, render
the condition of women who are depend
ent ON their own exertions more intoler-
able than ever. and constantly growing
worse. 1t is therefore becoming some
thing more than smiitary necessity,
that the prejudice against women engag-
ing in all the aEocation Of life, in which
they can earn virtuous living, should
give way to the exigencies of the changed
Situation of affairs.
If any one doubts the propriety of en-
larging the sphere of woman's employ
ments, let them just open their eyes aud
their ears and learn for themselves the
condition and prospects Of hundreds of
virtuous and worthy women in our own
town, who are mainly dependent upon
their own exertions for the means OF
support for themselves and their families.
