Suffrage for Woman

The Anti-Slavery Standard, which has hith-
erto rather given the cold shoulder to the
woman suffrage movement, sees its way clear
to support it now that the fifteenth amendment
to the constitution is before the State Lsgisla-
lures for ratification. 1t says: 3eaa
The triumph in Congress of the Constitu-
tfonal amendment guaranteeing the ballot to
colored men upon equal terms with the whites.
will greatly facilitate the progress of the
cause of suffrage for women. There is no
stopping place for the nation between a one
man despotism and universal suffrage. Every
important achievement in behalf of human
rights renders easier those which are to follow.
The field in the Forty-first Congress is now
clear. and should be promptly occupied by the
friends of woman suffrage who, we trust, will
urgently demand an amendment abolishing
all political distinctions on account of sex.
Hitherto, SO far as the subject of woman
suffrage has received attention in Congress it
has been given, for the greater part, by the
| enemies of negro suffrage, to embarrass, and
| if possible, to defeat that measure.
Now, unsnbarrassed by the trifing of the
Copperhead partisans against the negro, an
amendment guaranteeing the ballot to women
| upon equal terms with men, may and should
be urged upon its own merits. We hope Mr.
| Wilson in the Senate or Mr. Julian in the
House, or some other real friend of the mea-
| sure, will promptly introduce joint resola-
ton proposing such an amendment in the
Forty-first Congress. It will be very interest
ing to see, when fair test vote is reached,
| who are its opponents. 1t will also be inter
hstlng to note whether negr0-hating, Copper
head Senators and Representatives, and 9th
ers of their fraternity who edit certain rebel
Democratic newspapers will continue theil
pretentious championship of the political
rights OF women, when by so doing they can
NO longer embarrass the cause of equal suf
frage for colored men.
With the advent of new Administration
and a new Congress, with the negro suffrage
amendment transferred from the national cap
itol to the State Legislatures, and with wide.
spread, rapidly increasing interest in the caust
among the people, the opportunity for success
full effort in behalf of an Amendment extend
ing suffrage to women, is most auspicious
Let it be improved to the uttermost by al
friends of the movement within and outsid
Of the halls of Congress. BRO 6as bsaesi asa

l
Claxton, Remsen & Haffelfnger, Philadel

bel Clifton, and written by Frank Brierwood
1t begins with gypsy prophecy and maledic
ton. the two heroines, one, being wicked
and naughty, comes to grief; and the other
who is virtuous and lovely, is rewarded with 9
magnificent husband, unlimited fine clothes
and dwelling with marble floors The mora
is obvious. Mystery and upholstery are the
most striking features of the book fReceived
by Loring, Short and Harmony 'e.
The same publishers send US small volume
ior youthful readers, which certainly deserves
to meet with favor from that discriminating
class. This is Marooner's Island: or, DR.. Cor.
don IN Search Of has Children, by f. R. Goulding
OF Georgia, whose story of THE Young Ma.

great faverite. To that story the present one
Is sequel. 1t records the adventures of a
party of young people who started for picnic
lin local parlance marooning- the
reefs in Tampa Bay, and their anchor being
tripped by devil fish, they were carried
out to sea. Their many adventures before
they were finally rescued by their friends, are
told with much spirit. (Received by Loring,
Short & Harmony .a
Another story, which also is about an island,
and shipwreck thereon, and buried treas
ure, and pirates, and dangers by sea and land,
comes to us from the same Philadelphia firm.
1t is called The Han Toodlebawgs; or, The His
tory Of Very Distinguished Family, and its
aathor is Mr., F. Colburn Adams, who seems
to have written number Of other books. He
tells a story very well, barring slight ten
dency to singularity in the use of the moods
and lenses, and an occasional confusion in
connection with relative pronouns; but the
class OF readers whom he addresses are not
fastldious on these minor points,. If they get
plenty of sensation and adventure, it is the most
they ask, and the author is liberal in that di-
rection. The story has illustrations which are
really good, drawn with spirit and we'll en-
graved. (Received by Loring, Short & Har-

of real company of hunters who in the year
1858 encamped on the eastern slope of the
Rocky Mountains. After the sports of the
day were over they would gather round the fire
Of their camp and entertain themselves, with
listening to the stories of their guide, an old

had led an exciting and adventurous life in
that wild country. This guide is real, not a

THE WINTER OF S69-Prof Elias Loomis
OF Yale College gives the following summary
OF the winter months of the present year.
showing that the year has not been SO very
"remarkable" after all, as many seem to think:
The mean temperature of last December
was 80 degrees below the average temperature
Of that month. The mean temperature OF
January was 81 degrees above the average
temperature OF that month so that the mean
temperature of the last three months was 4
degrees above the average temperature of win
ter at New Haven This result is not partic
ularly remarkable, similar cases occurring on
an average once in three or four years. Tho
amount OF rain and melted snow for the last
three months was 1907 inches. which Is but
little below the average fall at this place.

GOVERNOR MCCLURE AND PARDoNs.-
The Missouri papers state that the Eastern
journals have done Governor McClurg great
injustice in coupling his name with that of
A. j. in the matter of pardons. The Misseu-
ri Democrat makes the following statement,
which we gladly copy: ',.,-.u,
For the information of our Eastern con-
temporaries, we will state that the criminals
were pardoned by our Governor in compli-
ance with the law, requiring the inspectors of
the Penitentiary, the State Auditor, Treas
urer. and Attorney General, to recommend
pardons, if they think proper, in cases where
criminals shall have served three quarters of
their terms Of sentence, and their behavior
shall have been uniformly excellent. About
eighty prisoners were recommended by the
inspectors OF pardon, but as the Governor in
tends to go slow on pardons, p he made a
discount Of nearly fifty per cent. Governor
McCiurg has pardoned in accordance with
law, but we remember Alright, A. j. has
done that kind of business for his friends,
without law, except the law of his own inn
perious will d naas.,,s4o-. a.f..r ~.
