vENING ADEIPHIA WEDNESDAY MAY H.

q quarter we had not been shocked, alarmed,
nor narrowed up. The landmarks Of our
fathers seemed to us reasonably secure. No
vision of hundreds of thousands of women
rushing madly to the platform, to the State
House, TO the editorial room, to push us from
our stools, appalled, US. We did not even feel
th at the country was done for. On the other
hand, we did wonder why we were surprised at
the success of the lecturer and the satisfaction
OF the audience.
Has it not been, in part, the fault OF the
pioneers of this reform, that the reform has
suffered unnecessary obloquyY There are
names among those of women specially known
as womsn's rights women which represent
q courage like Joan of Aro's, a steadfast endu-
rance like Mary Patterns. But many of the
representative women seem to us to have
committed the very offenses they most vehe-
mently denounoe. Man was tyrant, exact
ing, ungenerous, fierce, cruel, determined.
And in speech most eXaoting, ungenerous,
fierce, cruel, and determined, they demanded
his overthrow. A conservative world, which
did not perhaps love King Log, nevertheless
stood in mortal terror Of King Stork, and the
dynasty remained in power. Now insidious
voices whisper here and there, "King Log is
not so bad, but let us have Queen Log, too"
And there seems a reasonable hope that Her
Majesty will soon be enthroned. 1t Is fue
women who must conquer her kingdom for
her-women who love the graces and adorn-
ments of life, and who move in an atmosphere
of refinement, while yet they have unfinching
courage and the power of self-renunciation.
For, after all, women can take only what men
cenfer, since men are in authority. And it
seems to us that when men aud women meet
in friendly conference and say, "Come now,
let us reason together" they are not far from
finding very noble truth.
Itis because Miss Field takes up her work
with quietness and courtesy, because she does
not denounoe, nor bully, nor demand, because
she illustrates her belief that any woman, like
any man, appearing as public speaker, is
bound to give her hearers the highest result
of her culture, that her appearance on the
platform is earnestly to be welcomed. When
more women from our well-bred society are
ready to do zealously and openly the work
which lies ready to their hand, whether it be
bonpet-makiDg, or essay-writing, or lecture
reading, the malediction of Timon of Athens
will fall less witheringly-''If there sit twelve
women at the table, let dozen of them be
as they are,

cial Tesults of General Buffers public admin
istration of the affairs of this city, we believe
the Times, voting in the negative, would find
itself in sorry minority. Under his wise
military rule the terrible suft rings of the poor
of the city were much alleviated; all crime and
lawless abuses promptly put an end to, while
the finances and credit of the city were made as
good as any in the country; all this, and much
more IN the way of providing for the sanitary
condition of the city more effectively than IL
had ever been done before or since, giving
food to those in actual want, and generally
looking after the peace, interest, and comfort
of all well-oonducted citizens, the people Sc
cretly feel and know he did, despite the accu-
sstion Of hesrtlessness brought against him
by our contemporary. Whatever certain par
ties, politicians and the like here and else
where, may say against General Butler, 1t
does not become the people OF New Orleans,
or those who profess to represent their feel
ings, to inveigh too heavily against him. He
was in position here where, had he not pos
sessed the enlarged and liberal views of a
statesman and humanitarian, instead Of the
mean, despicable disposition the Times would
have us believe, he might have inflicted un-
told sutferings and agony upon the city which
was so bitterly opposed to him in political and
social feelings. All llhonor, say we, to General
Butler, at least for his conduct here, which,
when history shall be impartially written,
will be pronounced able and magnanimous.

A WEST INDIAN UTOPIA.

From the N. T. Times.
The 'latest intelligence by maip' from st.
Domingo represents everything there to be in
state of blissful tranquility and luxurious
richness, hardly to be looked for this side of
the Isles of the Blest. According to this rose
colOred story (of which Mr.. Banks himself
need not have been ashamed) "the country is
very quiet" the ''crops are abundant par
ticularly tobacco" Chat seductive creature
comfort), "the people are orderly and inofen-
sive," mo hostile expeditions" against the
Dominican Government have been even
''heard of at the capital" President Baez sis
considered by the majority of the people to be
the wisest and most moderate ruler who has
been at the head of the Government for many
years past" and last, but not least, in this
grand climax Of terrestrial felicity, 'the
natives consider annexation to the United
States the greatest blessing which could
occur"
All this at San Domingo, on or about april
Is. In view of such a state of mundane hap
piness, greater than is vouohsafed to most of
mortals, are we right to annex this West In
dian Utopia? Are we morally and politically
fit to bring it under our wingY Ought we to
remove this people from the wise and bene6-
cent BaeZ, and expose them to the wiles of
Washington and the temptations of Tam
manyY Ought we not rather, in simple hu-
manity, to let these unsophisticated islanders
alone, to enjoy their peace and harmony, or
at utmost, prepare ourselves, by long course
of political monastioism and tlagellation to bs
annexed to themY
Meanwhile, however, we have had by
Havana telegraph some different news that,
so far from the country being every quiet .
it is agitated with political disorder and con-
vulsed with revolution; that, so far from the
people being "orderly and inofensive," they
are prone, yea, habituated TO insurrection:
that 80 far from "no hostile expedition having
been beard off, Csbral is in arms and leading
powerful force against his old foe; that, so
far from the peoplei being Sin complete har-
mony with the administration of President
Baez," some OF them have lately defeated his
troops in a pitched battle, with heavy loss
And, in fine, whereas we are now told that "the
people of all parties, occupations and creeds are
anxious for early anne xatiOn to the United
States" and AGAIN that ''the natives consider
annex alton the greatest blessing which could
OCCUR " 1t was only the other day that, when
one of our ships-of-war appeared to coal in the
Bay of Samans, "the greatest excitement and
anxiety were manifested" we are told, les
the event "portended annexation" We
know also that Cabral and his followers are
specially opposed to any sale or bargaining o
Dominican territory.
On which side the more canards are pub
lisbed, and whe,h her the DOminicans do or d
not want to be annexed, IL is very hard at thi
distance to decide; but it is clear that the latte
must all make up their minds on the subjec
before we undertake to act.
