The Social Evil.


This most disagreeable of all subjects is
again forcing itself upon public attention.
Efforts have been made to modify it from
time to time, but they have'been rendered
abortive by cant and false delicacy, and it
has gone on growing and increasing, becom-
ing more open in its allurements and more
injurious in its effects, till it threatens to
faint the blood of the entire race of human
beings On this continent The medical sta
tistlcs-and more especially those obtained
IN the army-are terrible; and it is to be
hoped that some scientific plan will at last
be adopted to reduce the evils that now exist.
10 do this, human nature must be regarded.
Divine law has given men passions unknown
to women generally. The vast majority Of
young men are impure the vast majority of
women-thank Heaven-are pure; but
there are cases Of disease among the female
sex for which they are hardly morally re-
sponsible, and which are really insanity.
There are merely two facts to which we
desire to call the attention of those that have
this matter in charge, as they underlie all
sensible and possible reform. woman of
respectable position who falls, descends to
the depths of degradation; she goes lower
and lower at every step, till, diseased and
destroyed, she perishes in public asylum,
to be buried in Potter's Field. The miser-
able, half-clad, dirty, and ill-clothed child
of drunken parents, who graduates from
street begging and petty thieving into lewd
woman, rises steadily in her course. She
has knowledge and experience enough to
fight her own way, and ii all outward mat
ters-in conversation, appearance and man.
ner-she is improved by her new associates,
deadly as they may be to her already de5ased
nature. These girls become the proprietress
es of the establishments, and are often
wealthy. To them, from the start, 1t is
trade. As long as such children are found
in our streets, such women will exist
and if anything is to be done for them, it
must be done in their first condition.
But to the decent girl-betrayed perhaps
by a false lover, dragged intoa a house against
her will, or drugged and abused, with no
future then but continued course of infamy,
and often no physical means of escape from
1.-THE care Of our law makers should be
directed. Let them protect her preserve
her, if possible, but as that cannot always
be done give her the earliest possible means
of escape. This will be effected by forced
registration of all abandoned women. No
establishment could then keep girl in con-
fnement; every arrival would have to be
accounted for, and tke open registration,
while its disgrace would often deter the will
ing, would offer an immediate escape to the
abused The accounts that sometimes reach
the public ear of the treatment of ignorant
and innocent girls, who arrive pure and fresh
from the country, or from foreign lands, are
horrible. If the proposed law should diminish
this evil, it would have done much to remove
the greatest reproach to Christian codntry,
and would have made one step in the right
rection.-Nelc York Citizen.

CLEAR HEADED.-A member of the Ala
bama House thus addressed that body upon
the subject of an educational bill:
Mr. Speaker: Look at the king of the air,
the noblest of birds, the eagle of the Alps +;
watch him as he stands erect, with his proud
and noble form on some high point upon the
rock of Gibraltar, with a keen eye peeping
up at the sun. He looks sleepy, drowsy,
droopy, with the dew and mist Of the morn
ing covering all over his frosty form. Thus
he is before the break of day. At length
the great Col Of the morning, as he shines
through this mist, warns him up little. and
he begins to feel like soaring upward some.
what and he does soar, and soar, aud soar |
away up above the smoke and dust and
clouds, kicking back at the laundering
noise and rampant confusion and uproar
going on below him. So will it be with
Alabama, if we adopt this law. She will
rise in intellect above all the surrounding
trash and rubbish which lies piled up thick
about us. But fail to pass it, and you will
have to send out of the State for your intel
lect, and you become = heweTs of wood and
drawers of water to those who will educate

A CURIosIrY.-The Gold Hill News Of the
18th inst. says;
Last evening we saw, in front of store
on the divide, that German by the name
of B. Bendle, who is sort of natural genius,
had taken hatchet and shovel and cut from
a large pile of snow a Polar bear. We
have seen great deal of fine marble sculp-
ture work, but we have never seen a more
natural work of art than this snow bear
This morning some dogs found it, concluded
it was genuine article, and raised terri
BILE yelp. In few minutes all the dogs in
the neighborhood were around, and general
row was raised. The more courageous
ones would venture within ten or twelve feet,
but the timid ones kept several rods away.

A striking proof of the beneficent results
Of the late legislation of Congress, is found
in the fact that free speech now exists for
the first time in the memory of this gener
alton, throughout all the late rebel States.
Seven years ago Senator Wilson would
have been lynched had he attempted to de-
liver Republican speech in Charleston,
and Judge Kelly would scarcely have es-
caped with his life, had he essayed so per-
ilous feat in New Orleans. Now, We
find these gentlemen addressing large au
dienccs in the cities of the South, without
molestation or insult, and receiving mark
ed courtesies from distinguished and in
fluential men of the late rebel States. Less
than one year ago Union men were shot
down in the Streets Of New Orleans, with
as little ceremony and with as little proba-
bility their assassins being punished, as
if they had been wild beasts. Now, Judge
Kelly, who goes there to address the peo-
pie on behalf of the Union party, is feted
and honored by the city authorities; and in
Memphis, where but afew months since
Union mans life was in hourly peril he
was received with scarcely less honors
than at New Orleans.
The law has also given security to the
resident Unionists Of the South. They are
no longer prosecuted and outlawed as q
punishment for their fidelity to the Nation
al Government. The national flag is now
respected, the national authority is recog-
nized, and under the operations of the
laws enacted by the 39th Congress the
whole country will soon be united in
stronger political bonds than ever before
existed.
Legislation which has produced these
gratifying results is called tyranny and
despotism by a class of fossilized Demo
cratic politicians, but its wisdom is justified
by the establishment Of an era of liberty
where despotism prevailed, and by the
encouragement given to loyalty, where be
fore there was little else manifested thar
bitterness and hatred towards the Govern
men and all its interests.-Ind jour.

ton the Republican party is defeated, the
political and the civil rights of the negro go
down with it, and probably his very liberty,
Mr. Phillips says he cannot take sides, but
will occupy the position of an armed
neutral. For twenty years before the war
he refused to vote at any election, because
by so doing he said she should recognize
the Constitution of the United States as a
valid instrument and the government
under it as legitimate" He made the
cause of anti-slavery odious and revolving
to the masses by connecting it with treas
enable disunion sentiments. and, as Mr..
Greeley says in his Conflict ''thus brought
obloquy and contempt uponall who espOus
ed the cause of the slaves" and now that
slavery is abolished and the negro is invest
ed with political equality with the whites
throughout the South, he still refuses to
vote, and proposes to stand as an indiffer-
ent spectator in the forthcoming struggle
between the freedman and his late master.
