The PHILOSOPHY OF Axr11oAx WOMAN
HooD.-Ihe Second Lecture Of tho regular
course was delivered on Tuesday evening,
On the above subject, BY Capt. H. A.
Castle. The lecture WAS pleasant comb.
nation Of humor and sentiment, facts and
fancies, poetry and anecdotes, entertaining
quite well-flled house. He classified and
described the American woman Of to-day
the thinkers, the comforters, the helpers,
the shrews and the firts. The influence Of
woman, 70 thought, was greatest when un-
seen and unsupported, and that she lost
much whom she appeared before public
audiences. While women had . right to
vote and hold Office, he thought they had .
higher right to ask to DO excused from
both. He reviewed pretty severely the
present style Of education for girls and
young ladies, and touched on matrimony,
fashions, and 50 forth. We cannot admit
Capt. Castles claim Of standing
alone in advocating tho attraetivsaess Of
fashions in ladies, toilettes, for there arc
few men who admire anything more than
an elegantly md fashionably dressed vom-
an.
The third lecture will be delivered on
Tuesday evening Of next week by Hon.
Henry G. Wait. Subject "Postry." A fine
