COL. UTLEY ON WOMAN SUFFRAGE

Col Utley, of the Racine Journal is
decidedly opposed to W. ma suffrage
He draws the following som IRE picture of
the consequences likely 10 follow it
We are opposed to womaa suffrage for
the reason that it will drag woman down
from her God given position, that of a
ministering angel and the custodian of
every holy principle that makes the world
better, and transforms them into brawl-
ing termegrants. This is the rational
view we take Of the matter. There is al
go ridiculous view of the same subject
which we would bring out if we were
gifted in that direction. Tie idea of
having a warm hearted afectiunate wife
transformed into cold-b looded. heartless
politician is altogether too monstrous for
US. 1t women can vote, they can hold
Office, sit upon juries, &c. just think
of it, every time you step out of your
house there would be some oizy headed
politician logrolling your wife to vote
against you; or, when your door bell rang,
to go 10 the door and find cadaverous
looking creature there who wishes to see
Mrs. -- in private, he has been recon-
mended to her as WON n of great in
fuence in certain quarters. ''He pro-
babl y wants an appointment under John
son. lou invite him into the parlor, and
send Mrs. in to see him, and there
he log-rolls her for an hour and you all
that while waiting for your dinner; or,
suppose you come home to your meal and
find nothing ready, the house the other
side up, young ones all loose, yon ask one
of the little ones where their mother is,
and they will tell you she is out pork;i:ng
out her poll to~, won't that be nice?-
And then imagine you see your wife
seated in a large wagon with a pro-
miscuous crowd) decorated with placards,
and engaged in bringing, voters to the
polls to vote the johnson and Doolittle
ticket. Whew! the thought of it will
drive man mad. We have no patience
with the Legislature for dragging in, IN
asked, til silly ISSUE we can forgive the
postage stamp arrangement, but the drag
ging of this female suffrage question into
the Republican party we shall hold in
contempt. Leave the women alone in
their own pr per sphere, where, through
the blessed home influence she can mou d
the mind of the nation in everything that
is gentle and refined. Woman in that
sphere is only safeguard to pure and un-
defled sreligion. We wish the women
could vote on this amendment themselves.
They would vote it down so low that all
the hobby hunters in creation could not
resurrect it.

JEFF. DAVIS.

The writ Of habeas corpus for the de-
liverance Of the body of Jefferson Davis
was served on Gen. Burton, the COM
mander at Fortress Monroe, on May %.
The writ was responded to, and Mr.
Davis left Fortress Monroe, accompanied
by his family, on Saturday morning, and
arrived at Richmond on the afternoon of
the same day. Much interest was mani
tested in his arrival but no demonstra-
ton was made.
Mr.. Davis was brought before the Un-
tied States Court at Richmond, Judge
Underwood presiding, on May Ii Mr..
OConor, council for the prisoner, spoke
of Mr.. Davis long imprisonment, ETC.,
and asked that he should be bailed. The
Judge announced his willingness to accept
bail, whicA was fixed at 100000 One
half the amount had to be given by resi-
dents of Virginia Mr.. Davis was then
conducted to the Spottswood House.
The proceedings in court In the case of
j eferson Davis occupied about an hour
ard a-half
On emerging from the court house, in
Richmond, Mr.. Davis was loudly cheered
by a C ovid of negroes, with many of
whom he shook hands. Mr.. Davis and
family left Richmond the next day for
New York, where he arrived on W ednes-
day night. From there he goes to Canada
to visit his sons now attending school in
the dominion"
The following is the bail bond by which

The condition of this recognizance is

ECONOMY

The Providence Journal thinks there
rs but one remedy for the present increas-
ed cost of living. eff" it says, "four is
twenty dollars barrel, eat brown bread;
and if butter is twenty five cents pound,
eat less of It." This is very good advice,
but it does not reach the case. Corn
meal, as We showed some weeks ago,
makes quite as wholesome bread as wheat;
and there is more danger Of eating too
much than too little butter. A far more
economical mode Of living would be like
ly to promote the general health But
1t is idle to expect tie market to be eff
fected by voluntary dieting. Unless OBJ
liged to do it by the condition of their
own exchequers, only few people will
change their habits of living because pro.
visions command exorbitant prices. It
is highly probable that if the advice of
our Rhode Island namesake. were to be
generally followed it would have the de-
sired effect; hut the idea that any consid-
cradle number Of persons will curiail their
market expenses in the hope of bringing
down che price Of living is absurd.
The truth is, that while we have an
abundance of good land and ample facili-
ties for shipping there is dearth Of pro-
ducers. Every other branch of: business
is overlooked with men, but farmers and
farm laborers are not equal to the de-
mand. Town life has peculiar charms
for rich and poor, iguoran and intelligent.
It is exceedingly rare for men, old or
young, to go from tie city to the country,
but all steps are turned in the other di-
Iection. All agea and classes seek the
maelstrom Of the town fleeing from the
country a. if curse had been laid upon
il. It ought to be just the other way,
but SO long as the mania for living in
town continues there will be a compare
tive and amentable dearth of producers,
and that ri keep up the price of products

TIE CRETAN WAR.-Cable dis ches
from Europe state that the cretan war
is being prosecuted with vigor, aad that
Omar Pasha has twice been defeated with
a loss est mated al 3, 900 men. The great
powers have united in second request
to Turkey to cede Crete to Greece, but
their efforts have been unsuccessful, and
Turkey seems determined to subjugate
the Cretans, or else reduce their country
to desert. Owing to existing treaties
the great powers, with the exception of
Russia and Greece, are prevented from
interfering, or else the difficulty would
soon be set led.

THE RELEASE OF DAVIS.

The release of Jefferson Davis was in
strict accordance with the programme Of
Seward and johnson, and may be regard
ed as legitimate result Of the policy
adopted by them. The friends and aavo-
Gates of the Southern rebellion, those who
during the war rejoic d at rebel victories
and Union defeats, are the persons who
have been most loud in graduating
Mr.. Davis on his escape from imprison-
ment. Thegreat mass of the loyal peo-
ple of cur land, however, both at the
North and st the South, feel that great
act Of injustice has been done, and that
the wholesale and indiscriminate pardon
ing of unrepentent rebels has established
PRECEDENT full Of danger to our Govern
ment Systematic efforts have been made
to dignity and render respectable the foul
acts of treason; traitors have been par
doned for their votes, courted for their
FAVOR, ana IaudaQ 1or tnelr herOlSm {.
But though Jefferson Davis may escape
the demands Of justice from one source,
he cannot ultimately escape punishment.
He has committed crimes, not only against
his country, but against God and human
ity, and he nsy find that remorse of con-
science brings more uneasiness than pris-
on walls, and that the contempt and scorn
of mankind will condemn him to greater
degradation than the decree OF any CO urt
in cur land.
1t is rather significant that Mr. Davis
should have made sucn haste to leave this
country and go to Canada. Valandigham
and many others went there during the
war, and if they would all now join their
fallen chief in his new abode, and remain
there, our country would be the gamer
thereby.
