woman as an IdIer.

We copy the following from the Lon
don Saturday ReUieiv:
Conceive woman Obliged to take life
in earnest, to study as men study, to
work as men work. The change would
be no mere modification, but the utter
abolition OF her whole present exist
ence. The whole theory of Woman's
life is framed on the hypothesis of sheer
incidence. She is often charming, but
she is always idle. There is an i'm
mense ingenuity and a perfect grace
about her idleness; the efforts, in fact,
of generations of cultivated women
have been directed, and successfully
directed, to this special object of secu-
ring absolute Incidence without either
the inner tedium or the outer contempt
which Incidence is supposed to bring in
its train. Woman can always say with
titus, 81 have wasted a day" but the
confession. wears an air of triumph
rather than regret. A world of trivial
occupations, a whole system or social
life, has been laboriously invented that
the day might be wasted gracefully and
without boredom. A little riding, a
little reading, n little dabbling with
the paint brush, a little strumming on
the piano, little visiting, a little shop
ping, little dancing, and a general
trivial chat scattered over the whole,
make up the day OF an English girl in
town, Transport her into the coun-
try, and the task or fretting
away existence, though it becomes
more difficult, is faced just as gall
lantly as before. Nude comes to
the rescue with the back novels which
she was too busy to get through in the
season; there is tine scamper from one
country house to another, there are the
firtations to keep her hand in, the pets
to be fed, the cousins to extemporiz9 a
mimic theatre, the curate-if worst
comes TO worst-to try little ritualism
upon. With these helps country
day, what with going TO bed early and
getting up late, may be FILTERED away
as aimlessly as day in town. Woman
may fairly object, we think, to abolish
at one fell swoop such an ingenious
fabric of idleness as this. a reyolulon
in the whole system of social life, IN the
whole conception and drift OF feminine
existence, is a little too much TO ask.
As it is, woman wraps herself IN her
Incidence, and is perfectly satisfied
with her lot. She assumes and the
world has at least granted the assump-
ton, that her little hands were never
made to do anything which any rough
er hunds can do for them. Man has
got accustomed to serve as her newer OF
wood and drawer of water, and to e1-
pect nothing from her but poetry and
refine ment. It is little too much TO
ask her to go back to the position ofthe
squaw, and to do any work for himself:
But It is worse to ask her to remodeL
the world around her, on tie UNDER
standing that henceforth duty ana toll
and self-Fespeet are to take the place OF
frivolity and Incidence and alteration.

The Washington lady correspondent
Of the New York ZndepeadeJtt went to
hear Mrs. Francis Anne Ksmble read
at AIetzer0tt Hall, few evenings since,
and thus sketches that wonderfully en-
dowed and beautiful woman: 80
at precisely eight O'Clock, before the
maroon colored screen appeared ma
jestIc woman, who brought the shade
OF SIddons and OF all the KambIes In
with her. and who dipped down into
her ToIpuaInous robes, In courtesyinR
to the audience, as-Well, not as lily,
for she does not resemble one in the
Ieast-but as 4 goddess might into the
sea. a primeval woman-one whose
less broken, by any vioissitude of Life,
BY any anguish of spirit-Who behold-
ing her would not have said this before
she had uttered a Word2 There are 4
few rare human beings, who in their
loftiest consciousness are unapproacha-
BILE and unconquerable; and they be-
traY their nature in their very presence.
Fanny Kemble has the aspect of such
a soul. There she stood, in visible seem
ing the fit embodiment ofShakespeare's
0randest woman. You looked upon
her, and felt certain that there was no
high quality OF Womanhood that she
could not illustrate and enn0ble.-
Everything dDOuG heI- lEO4uCSa Lie TO-
suit of harmony, from her magnificent
head 10 the classic simplicity of her
dress. She wore plain black silk, the
corsage buttoned to the throat, with
close sleeves, lace collar and runs,
white gloves, and a broad blue sash
clasped below the LEFT shoulder with a
gold ornament. Nothing attracted at
tention 20 her head but the nobility Of
its outlines; and the "glory" Of its
abundant hair. Her beauty is not the
beauty of youth, nor of maturity; 1t is
a much rarer beauty-the beauty of
age-of an age to which time has
brought complete ripeness, without q
tint of decay. Her dark hair. hecked
with gray, was parted heavily on a
forehead low and purely Greek. But
her wonderful face can in no way be
described by its features. Its rapid
transformations, TRANSPORTING il every
moment, render it perpetual marvel.
The splendor of intellect and the out
shining of the spirit make it the in
spiration that it is.

recently added to the attractions OF his

Court Bill. -
The attorneys In the MoCardle viii attend sne
Supreme Court tomorrow and have some undefc
standing in reference to . decision. As Is known,
the argument has been finished, and all that remains
TO be accomplished In order to complete the matter
Is the decision Of the court The bill repeating the
appellate Jurisdiction OF the Supreme Court OF the
United States has interposed serious doubts az to
the power Of the court to proceed further, and
discussion may arise tomorrow on this subject. The
counsel on both sides manifest disposition to deny
that the recent act OF Congress affects the McCardle
case at all, and 1t Is thought this difference may lead
TO further complications and an altogether new
phase OF controversy.
