NME
The subject Of women a; work on the
fam, has suddenly become a popular one
with Republican writers. Some of their
leading papers and periodicals. have taken
it up, aud are prosecuting it most vigor-
ously. With them, it has already become
good aud pleasant thing to see females
performing out door labor in the fields.
It was done by the ancient GermL. 4, a
great and virtuous people It was done
by the squaws in the shadows of our
primeval forests it is done all over Eu-
rope therefore it should be done now
and with us. Such is the argument of the
last Harper" and how eminently plain
and irrefrtable But it would be very
blind man, or woman, who did not see
the su1den necessity for the doctrine anil
the party purposes to be subserved by il,
and we do not think many ef our farmers,
fair daughters will fail to "see it, without
much assistance from any one. The
scarcity of farm labor, the absolute ne
cessity Of care for the crops, must force
more or less Of the gentler sex into the
field to experience all the bitterness of the
first curse in earning their bread,by the
sweat of their brow. These may read the
eifnsions of republican writers who sit
easily at home and do no harder work
than to urge on the war which has Great
ed the necessity for this toll by those
whose hands were never used to it and
whose sex units them for it, but they will
not believe it. They may submit to their
hard fate more or less willingly, more or
less heroicslly, but they will not sttltify
themselves by believing, or pretending to
believe, that it is right and proper for
them to be toiling under the hot sun,
hoeing and narrowing and planting, burn
ing their fair skins and blistering their
\ tender hands with labor which ought to
be done and would be done by their
brothers were they not forced ipu the
field when the harvest is human lie and
the reaper is death.
Nor do we believe the doctrine Of the
new lights;" woman's position is the
household, the domestic hearth-her mis-
sion the so(tening of the roughntss of
the other sex and the adornment of life
her labor to render her home attractive and
10 educate her children. To toll and
dig and delve is to unsex herself, divest
her body and her mind of all that renders
her attractive to man and incapacitAtes her
for the enjoyment of life.
We commend to our farmers wives and
daughters hereabouts this new subject of
republican writers. 1t will appear in
their weekly paper very soon whatever
is ventilated in certain eastern papers
appears re-hashed after few days Ia
Sunday always intervening in certain
western journals. We therefore call their
attention to the subject of FIELD labor for
females in ad vance, and are not afraid to
trust for decision as to is propriety and
desirability to their intelligence and judg-
ment.

Rebel Plans.

"DRuID," the well-informed Baltimore
correspondent of the New York World,
believes that LEE has sent reinforcements
to Atlanta, with view to overwhelming
Gen. SHERMAN with numbers. Having
defeated SHERMAN, troops enough will be
imme lately sent to Richmond to defeat
GRANT. These are facts which give
plausibility to this statement of DRuID.
Troops are known to have left LEES army,
which have not been sent North. Where
could they have gone but to Atlanta? I?
The railroa communication between Rich
mond and Atlanta is perfect, and the
means for transportation ample.
"DRUID" concludes thus
"Such are some of the dreams which the
rebel leaders at Richmond are indulging in,
while Mr. Lincoln is induIging his dream OF
reelection. Thev may be nothing more than
dreams But whether dreams or realities,
this much at least is certain. Richmond will
not be taken this summer, nor by General
Grants army. If Atlanta falls, or if the above
plan is carried out, some other more feasible
one will be devised The war is not yet near
its end. Full employment will be found for
the five hundred thousand men just called out,
and for five hundred thousand more after
them for the military power of the South is
as strong an ] as defiant as aver before"
