Tho dispatch from St. Paul in III.
weeks JOURNAL, concerning the State
Convention, was 80 maugled by tho
operator iu that city Us to be entirely
unintellisible. The call Of the Com
mittes is published in tull in thississus.
twill be seen that tho day:ofa.sembl-
ing has been placed on tho 18th Of
May, or barely one week before the
meeting Of the National Convention.
Just Why this was done We are At aloss to
imagine, unless that tho majority Of tho
Committee, by whom all attempt. to
secure an earlier day were overruled,
expected to secure the greater portion
Of the delegates to Chicago from St.
Paul. As the call now stands, if dele.
gates should be selected from the rur.l
districts they would be compelled to
start At once for Chicago aud telegraph
home to have their extra shirts and
collars sent ate, them by mail, express
or other most convenient conveyance.
In Ohio tho Convention has been
called for the 4th Of March in Ne
braska April 9th; in Wisconsin on The
18th Of February; in Maryland on che
9Th Of March; the delegates at large
from Maine were selected on the 22d
Of the present month; the Illinois
Convention has been called for tho 9Th
Of May; the Pennsylvania on tho 18th
Of March the Tennessee Convention
was held on the 23d inst, and delegates
chosen !; aud 50 on through tho different
States Ne have noticed, our own being
the very latest, aud some two months
after the average Of the others. The
natural and gratifying conclusion to be
arrived at is that our State Central
Committee exceeds in wisdom any and
all the other Committees Of the Union.
For which let Us be thankful

Governor Marshall has issued tho

that the. only way for all to DO repre-.
scented is by personal instead of a
vicarious use ofthe ballot.
.- Again there are those who, iudiffsr-
ent Is 20 the justice Of the question, Wow
Y solely in prudential light, and ask,
."Would it be safe to allow women to
vote.' l would ask these persons
(whose prudence is certainly to be COM
mended) if their mothers, wives and
daughters are not equally with them
selves lovers Of truth, justice and hu-
manity, and whether the lawful ex-
'pression Of these sentiments could DO
in any way prejudicial to tho interests
Of society? On the contrary, is not tho
fact that woman seeks an enlarged
sphere of thought and action in itself a
sure proof that the necessity for such a
change exists, for which tho present
time seems ripe? Upon this subject the
greatest Of living thinkers says in re-
cent address: "Tbe new claim of wom-
an to political status is itself an hon.
orable testimony to the civilization
which has given her civil status new
in history. Now that, by the increased
humanity of law she controls her prop.
erty, she inevitably takes the next step
to her share in power"
There is yet another objection some.
umes made to woman assuming the
duties Of an intelligent citizen, which is
that, 'by sodoing she will lose somewha,
OF her essential character and become
masculine" In order to satisfy these
jealous guardians Of traditional feminine
attributes, fifty portrayed by Words
worth's lines,
"A violet BY messy stone,
Halt hiden from the eye"
We must first endeavor to ascertain
whether in order to sustain a womanl,
character it is necessary to occupy .
subordinate position, and unless this b,
proved, l frankly confess my inabilit,
to see how such a result should be pro
duced. Rather than allow ourselves t,
be dlsquieted by such unworthy fears
let US tr1st implicitly in that benefcen
Nature which has 50 evidently in al
