sponsibiity is written all over him. And
to say the truth, your ladies' men have
some grounds for their self-conceit. IL is
indubitablc that girls do sometimes fall in

fellows who look as ii they had walked

these iluttcrcrs is to be pitied; for, IL she
has any glimmerings Of common scusc,
and heart under her bodice, she will soon
discover that her dainty husband has no
more of a mans spirit in him than an au-
tic figure on Savoyard's hand organ.
But woman worth true mans love is
never caught by such n specimen Of orna-
mental hollow ware. a sensible woman
is, in fact, u terror to "ladics' men," for
they are aware that her penetrating eye
looks through them. and sounds the depths
Of their emptiness. She knows tho man,

Gently liberated slaves? Protect them in

Educate and Sefine them, and thus, by ele.
waiting them in the scale of morals, they
will become fitted to take their places upon
the great arena Of political strife.
Now, in regard to Dir. Farquhar's vote
upon the question in the District of CO.
lumbia. II, The friends Of negro suffrage
claim, it was designed 10 make that bill an
entering wedge or forerunner Of general
proposition to amend the constitution, and
force negro suffrage upon an unwilling
people, then. instead Of condemning, we
heartily endorse that vote. More than
that, We firmly believe, If tho question was
to be decided by the voice of the people
that elected Alr. Farguhar, they would
heartily endorse that same vote.
While the absurd doctrine of the right
Of State to seeede, has. We trust, been
settled for all time to come, there are,
nevertheless, certain rights that ought to
be reserved to the several States. Pre- mi
nent among these, Is the right to say who
shall constitute the qualified electors Of
tue states.
Two prominent Republican States, dur
Ing the past year, spoke cut their sentiments
upon this subject. Their vote was yet
fresh in the memory of CongressmcQ,
Shall we force upon Others what We esteem
odious to ourselves? lfthe issue were to
be made to-day, in Indiana, are We prepared
to advocate universal suffrage?
"Let us remove the beam from our own
eye, then We may see clearly to remove the
mote from the eye Of Others" Perhaps if
such an issue were forced upon us, others
might be found ready to "betray their
trust"
But must close, promising that you
shall hear again from one who is not the
esquire Of Mr.. Farquhar, or anybody
else. Il. Il. r.,
