In an exclusive report, given in The TRIBUNE
of yesterday, we have what we may describe
as prominently the Beecher view of the
Woman Question. The Plymouth Church orator
has raised the dogma OF the professional
WOmans Rights organization to higher
plane than it has occupied hitherto. In
fact, Mr.. Beecher has said several things
worthy of attention as that it is not
wanted to advance woman to higher posi-
tOn-which she cannot have relatively, how
ever much we try to vary the plan OF
creation-but to give her more influence and
that there is nothing good which woman
should not do if she can. Mr.. Beecher fayOrs
literally our drinking deep of the Pierian well
of suffrage, and will have negroes, Cinnamon
and all to enter upon the stage of equal
rights Well and good but let us have the
first proof of Woman Suffrage: the willingness
of the majority of women to vote at all.
Mr.. Lloyd Garrison, another admirable
wOmans man, regards the new suffrage move
ment as a kind of anti-Slavery cause. We
fail to hear the clanking of chains. though, in
deed, we see the sheen of jewels and gold,
and the beauty of silk and millinery. Do these
slaves of magnfcence wish to vOteG these
victims of beauty to hold office these rulers
and arbiters of the household to compete with
men - that is the question. Mr.. Garrison
seems not to think that The ReuoIation is a
good newspaper, therein. we suppose, obeying
his old journalistic instincts. Nor does he APP
pear to believe that the Woman's cause has
been in all respects well recommended. In
fact, he has the audacity to deny the anthem

ms Day the Registration of Legai NoVc'S

State There are still many legal voters IN
the two cities who have, from carelessneSS or
apathy, neglected to register. Let them De
exhorted and entreated no longer TO neglect
this duty. The average time required OF each
is less than twenty minutes, and the reglstrleS
are kent omen till far into the evening on purpose
that no one shall DO able to say that he was
precluded from registering by the pressure oil
his daily duties. This is the last dGy-do not
leave its special work undOne
If you can spare the time, go right OIL tins

placed on the list if you cannot go this morn
ing, 90 in the afternoon if not in the after
noon. be sure to go betmes this evening! If
YOU wait till the last moment, and find that
many others have done likewise, do not at
tribute your annoyance to the law, but put the
blame upon yourself, where it belongs. AT all
events, fail not to register, and do your best TO
persuade every legal voter to do likewise!

We masculine fellows are not TO have all
the fun of registration, it seems. Mrs. Pierce
and Mrs. Dinsmore call upon all women who
favor the Woman's Parliament to come up on
Saturday to-day. and put down their names to
further the good cause. These worthy ladies snub
the Suffrage Women by saying that they have
mo connection with the shop over the way
That is all very well but we shall see whether
the Suffrage people are so easily snufied out.
They have great perSeverance--we' II be sworn
to that-and it will require the strongest logic
of the Parliamentarians to convince them that
they cannot come in. Whatever may be the
result we hope there will be no repeating

The latest kerosene murder in this city re-

that the sufferers by these explosions of bad

Onstrated that from a perfectly pure Kerosene
oil there is comparatively little danger we
have been waiting to see if the number of &C

Prince Thomas Edward. Duke of Genoa, aged
nearly sixteen years, and distinguished as
the pupil and guest of that philOsophic pro-
fessor and poet, Mr.. Matthew Arnold, is al

most of the Unionists in caucus have declared
against the Duke, still the Progressists and
Democrats of the Cortes have given him t09

Every citizen who has been an inhabitant OF
this State one year and Of the County four
months has right to have his name placed
on the poll list in the election district in which
he actually resides on the day Of registration,
and to vote on the Constitution and for State
and County officers. The provision that every
citizen shall have been for thirty days next
preceding the election a resident of the
district from which the officer is TO be chosen
/" for whom he offers his vote,' has led some
inspectors to refuse to place on the voting list
the names of persons who have moved into
the district within a month The fact is that
this provision only fOrbids such persons 10

Now, then, let every Republican in this City

to-day and see TO it that the name of no legal
voter is excluded because he has moved from

If there is any man on whom there rests

that man is the pilot of n ferry-boat Nearly
two hundred thousand persons cross 10 and

the time being, are in the hands Of Others II
is not pleasant reflection to think that there
are rivalries among these pilots, that they have
the same pride in the boats that the old fire.
men had in "der masheeD,n and that they will
run most dangerous risks TO come out ahead.
We have heard that this rivalry has long been
noticed on the HOboken Ferry, and trustworthy
citizens assure us that it ia wonderful that dis
astrOus collisions have not occurred. We do
not know who is responsible for the manage
ment of these ferries, but presume 1t Is the
agent of the Stevens estate. Whoever he may
be, we trust that his good sense will put stop
to pilot rivalry; if he does not the proper
authorities must do the work for him. There
is enough of accidental danger; we cannot
stand the trifling that led to the late collision.

appointed by one man to make constitution

officially criticised and their presses suppressed
who have their laws changed by whim, and
national justice done by grace and at leisure,
and whose moneys are spent magnifcently !;
who have cannon opened on them when they

to endure their pupilage and consider 1t prov
