Stl6VhnCS propose 10 remedy by ena-
bling women TO vote n I propose for one
thing to remedy this! i give these few
instances to prove that women are not
the petted favorftes OF society which
some people seem to imagine; that they
have not that AbnndAnce, that superfin-
ity; OF influence which Is ascFibed to
them and are not sufficiently repre-
sented by the representation of those
who have never cared to do on their
behalf so obvious AN act OF Justice.
Hear, hear,l Grievances of less mag
nitude than the law of the PROPERTY Of
married dlswomen; when affecting per-
sons and classes less Injured to passive
endurance, have provoked revolutions.
We oughtnot to take advantage of the
security which we feel against anV such
danger in the present case to refuse to a
limited class Of women that small
amount Of participation in the enact
ment and Improvements of.our laws
which this motion solicitsz for them,
and which would enable the general
feelings Of women to be heard In this
house through q few male representa-
hves. 1--WE ought not to deny them
what we are going;to accord TO every
body else-a right to be consulted; the
common chance OF placing in the great
councils OF the nation few organs of
their eirsentiments-of having, what every
petty trade and profession has, a few
members Of the legislature with a hsDe-
cial call to stand up for their interests,
and direct attention to the mode in
which those interested are effected by
the Law or by any ichangesin il. land
when the time comes, as it is certain to
come, when this will be conceded, I
feel the hfmest Conviction that you
VIII never repent Of the concession.

After some twelve years residence in
California and Arizona, i revisited NV
old home at Wheeling last January.

the friends endeared to me by early as.
ISOLATION; even the houses and the
streets of that good old town came back
with pleasant thoughts as / recalled the
past-amtd the desert wilds of Arizona,
and the made exciting whirl of life in
California, there was no home feeling,
no sense OF rest and quiet satisfaction.
All was hurry and hustle, and selfish
strtfei aud thenI thought of the blessed
home Of early days, and my heart
1craYed TO rest once more beneath
the roof made sacred by the loving
presence of a dear old mother, and

goods i possessed, and started on the
voyage HomewRrd bound.n / came

the place that once knew me SO well,
would recognized me no more, and

wretched of all feelings, that OF being
a a'stfanger to your own home, and your
