The Eduestion of Women.

Many facts which are alleged as reasons why
women should receive no thorough or solid edu-
cation, are. far they exist, the direct con-
sequences of the wanto such an education, and
we have seen arguments against high standard
of female education that were not unlike an ar
gument against gymnastic training except Tor
those who possessed the strength of gymnasts
Thus it has been urged that women do not pos
sess that power OF concentration and sustained
attention, that required for serious study,
when the fact is, that such power is gradually
acquired by exercise, and is the result instead
Of the prerequisite of study and to say that
women shall have thorough training until
they evince the power, is scarcely less absurd
than to forbid one to enter the water until he
has learned to swim. So too the alleged frivol-
ity and giddiness of the female mind and tenn
permanent, often adduced as objections. But,
if to admit that women are, asa rule,
more frivolous than men, might not the fact be
nationally accounted for, by the exclusion of the
former from all the studies and pursuits that are
calculated to strengthen the mind, and from that
kind of knowledge and that class of requirements
that would fill it worthily. What wonder that
minds are listless or giddy, that have no objects
of higher interest to occupy them than dress,
accomplishments and gossip? What wonder
that minds vacant that receive no solid pab-
ulum? But we think the time has gone by,
when these objections had much influence. Now
that it is settled thing that women are to be
professions is to be allowed fair field for the
exercise of her talents and faculties, whatever
they may prove to be, and is even to be admitted
into the field ofpolitcs, her right to n thorough
education mrst in consistency be ceded. The
authorities of Harvard University have returned
an evasive answer to the application of NUM-
ber of young women to be admitted to that ven-
erable institution of learning. Michigan Cniver-
sity has a similar application before it, upon
which no decision has yet been made. But the
result cannot be doubtful. Our higher insttu-
tions of learning must soon be thrown open to
women, and the great social experiment Of MAX
ing the sphere of womens activity commensur-
ate with her wishes and her powers must be
fairly tested. contributor to the Monitor argues
that this enlargement of woman's sphere, is one
of the symptoms of the social laxity and demor-
alzation of the times, and is an outgroTth OF an
irrelgous and materalstc spirit, and that We
are on the verge of reaction that will sweep
away all such progressive F." and intidel ideas
1t may be so. The march of progress is not al
ways steady in one direction and it is possible
that the universal ascendancy Of medieval ideas,
and relapse into the Dark Ages, is to be the
next step in the worlds history. - Dramatic
! Chronicle.

at all the obtainablc pleasures of the town, last
week assisted at heavy dinner, took much pot

many o'clock. On reaching his doorstep and
fishing up his night key, he became satisfied
that he was essentially conyiyialzed, and not
precisely in that condition which good husband
should be to meet good wife. Cautiously en-
tcring the hall he stopped, listened moment,
heard no noise, and congratulated himself that
the family was asleep. Quietly he took off OVER
coat, drew off boots, turned on hall light slowly
ascended stairs to family bedroom, hesltated at

entered, found gas turned low, wife apparently
asleep. thought she was asleep, sat down, listen

Messrs. Devins & Bolton gentlemen: Fer
the last eleven months / have been suffering
almost daily from several attacks of Dyspepsia
so much so that could with difficulty retain a
meal in my stomach more than twenty minutes
At night L experienced great burning in on
about the region of the heart; a general de-
preston of spirits, attended with frequent
headache, dizziness or dimness of sight. |
tried various cathartics, compounds, and
stomach preparations, without being afforded
any efectual relief till / used four bottles of
HubbePs Golden Bitters, since which period |
have not been troubled with a single one of the
above complaints. From the benefit those Bit
teas have afforded me, feel it my duty to ex
press publicly my grateful thanks.

COMMERCIAL AND FINANCIAL.


New York advices show that new era of
speculative and business activity is looked
forward to on account of the proposition to
exchange per cent certificatesfor compound
interest notes Says the Tribune:
''This proceeding changes the compounds,
which are now useless as circulation, into a
security equal in value as reserve, and
capable Of conversion into circulation at
short notice The banks for this convertible
ty surrender two per cent OF annual interest
sacrifice of no consequence in comparison
with the advantages gained. The Treasury
saves two per cent of interest, and takes a
position where its whole energies can be de-
voted TO funding the 7-3OS. This proceeding Is
for the moment expansion upon a large scale,
and Will stimulate new SpeculatiOns not only
in stocks, but in commodities of all kinds.
Wall street, with its usual keenneSs, strikes
the keynote which Will be responded to by
every commercial city in the Union"
