Men Of borh srx-.irP PoIi,Ic.,

Mrs. E. Csdy Stanton prints note to
the Cent? al Fremont Club Of New York
city, eIplsining her reason for attaching
her name to their call for convention OF
the 1rsdiesl men Of the nation" She
likes the call because it demands negro
suffrage, "Without which emancipation is
a mockery," and because this principle
lifts politics into the sphere of morals and
religion snd makes it the duty of sll true
meR and women to 90 in and help build
up the new nation. But what most pleas
es Mrs. Stanton is that she feels able to
take it for granted that the cali to trad
ioal men" uses the word Gmen" in its
largest sense. That's to ssy Mrs. Stanton
understands that the radicals invite men
Of both SCISSOR, not to make an invid.
ious distinction-Women Of beth seXes-to
their nominating convention. Therefore
did she sign their call, ss radical man,
rising above sn such material and trivial
distinctions as those Of gender and crino-
line. We admire Mrs. Stsnton's spunk.
She is gentleman Of genius; she is q
lady Of parts; she has honoFably achieved
wide influence among the gentler sex Of
both gsnders. Il is highly proper that
hh shouiu not SAAg SiSH AE0SAuentIel
call, ut 90 into the convention as dele
gate, and lake others Of her female breth-
rem with him, Perhaps we are getting
the pronouns little mixed; what we mean
to say that this is free country, and is
going 10 be ffeer, and that every man and
woman Of either sex has 8 perfect right
to speak her mind ard follow the lead Of
bis own progressive ideas, and we hope
she viii do it-SPnngtssd RePEbheaH.

upon him, the first conservative statesman
Of England, comes before the people Of

Mr.. Mill in his argument on represena-
tive government says the three essential
conditions in any people in order to Re-
publican form of government are the fol-
lowing:
First it is esential that people are will
ing to accept q representative form Of
government. There are, Of course, con.
ditiOns Of society when this essential re.
quisits could not be found. Among q tribe
Of North Amsrican Indians, or among a
tribe trained to believe only in the right
Of particular few TO rule, this first con-
ditiOn could not exist Again, tits essen
tial that the people so choosing, shall be
ready to defend their choice by personal
s1ansnre TO danger if need be. An efFem-
mate indolent people, could never supply
the condition.
When heir form of government was in
danger they would surrender their rights
into the hands of a despot. A third condi-
ton is the power Of self-restrsint. This
must be posses ed in order to the exercise
Of the privilege Of general suffrage. With
out going into an accurate analysis Of the
conditions essential, Mr.. Gladstone ssys
self-oommsnd, self oOutrOl, patience IN
der suffering, confidence in the Law, and
respect for superiors, are the requisites.
II these are essential in Englsnd, they
are essential in America. These qualities
have all been exhibitei on scale SO grand,
that the cause Of representative govern
ment, will be greatly advanced throughout
the world. Our people have not only
chosen this form Of government but they
are pouring out their life blood for ii, with
prO1igality Of patriotism such as the
world has never Witnessed.
These qualities, SO deeply inwrought
into our people, have been the fruit Of our
liberal institutions, Of our education and
our Christianity. .-.-
