EFFIcACY OF sTRANCE aar.,s

Inc cincinnati Gazette has it.
mlsgivings in respect to til,
value ofthat large amount of swear
ing, which is one of the features OF
the times. Under the head oil
Extra Oaths," it discusses rather
sensibly, as follows:
Experience has proved that
swearing will not make rebels loyal
nor save a country. II was sup
posed that by tradition the Ameri-
can people were opposed to test
oaths, but in the excitement of war
we have pushed the oath business
to extremity. We suspect that the
whole result may be summed up in
this; that our extra oaths excluded
only the honorable men among the
rebels, and admitted the worst, who
TOOK the oath and remained just as
they were before"
1t is doubtful whether any BODY
ever believed that swearing would
make Rebels loyal, or save the
county; that is to say, any body
whose opinion was worth the ask
ing, or who had any real influence
in the matter. Itnever appeared to
us that the multiplicity of strange
and extravagant oaths which the fan
atlclsms of the times have reduced,
had for their purpose the making
OF Rebels loyal or the saving of the
country. We suspect that the re>
suit that has been realized was fore
seen that the oaths would exclude
the honorable men among the
Rebels, and let in the dishonorable
ones. 1t is not, by any means, GER |
tam that it was the honorable ones |
that were, and the dishonorabIe |
ones that were not wanted. The
origin of the oaths, however, was in
malignity. Their purpose was not
cautionary but vindictive. They
were contrivances TO revolt, irritate
and enrage. They were things
which the loyal were to cram down
the threats of the Rebels, not to
make them better, but to afford
qualification by the nausea they
would excite.

The Fictitious woes of the negro,

herself a superiority over all other
cities in the practice of good works.
She boasts of her wealth, her hu-

THE WORKING WOMEN OF BOSTON
THEIR TRIALS AND WRONGS.

THEIR TRIALS AND WRONGS.
A working wOmen's convention
was held in Boston on the goth ult.
to take steps to redress the sad
treatment they receive at the hands
OF their employers. Some of the
statements made by the speakers
were singularly pathetic. OF the
twenty thousand women who, ac-
cording to DIR. Dio Lewis, endeavOr
in that city to earn their living by
the needle, upward of eight thou
sand arc in the most deplorablo
poverty. Two thousand of the
latter are compelled to toll for less
than twenty-five cents q day during
all the hours of summer sunlight.
Those who were fortunate enough
TO obtain employment from the
ProVident Aid Society were obliged
to make shirts entirely by hand,
hemmed, gusseted, felled aid button
hOled, for fOrty-five cents each :"
and there were cases cited of women
who make shirts at fifty cents
dozen. AT these famine prices they
"found it difficult to procure the
meanest lodging for less than
dollar q week" Mrs. Sarah Ellis
stated that she has worked from
dawnto shutdown, not stopping TO get
one mouthful of food, for twenty
five cents, and she added: II have
lived on one cracker a day, because
l could not get employment, and
could not get any more food,
though l have travelled from house
to house and from place to place,
seeking for work" Mrs. Warner
stated that there is a firm in that
city that employs from 100
to $50 girls to sew straw
hats. The girls get eight cents
each, and buy their own straw. Mrs.
Warner knew one lady who worked
three weeks on these straw hats, and
got eighty-seven cents for it. Law
yers and brokers employ women 10
scrub their rooms once a week, and
} give them thirty cents a day. Other
women go out washing all day for
fifty or sixty cents per day. Mrs.
Warner added: 81 have canvassed
fifteen cities of the United States,
and have not, in any of them, found
the condition of women so deplora-
bic as in the city of Boston"
These women, on the verge of
starvation, land having no choice
between death from hunger and a
life of infamy," have appealed to
the Legislature of Massachusetts
for relief. The petitioners ask that
q tract Of land be purchased near
the city, where the more dependent
Of them may be allowed to settle as
gardeners; that the land so set
apart be divided into separate lots
with a small house on each, and that
the State shall furnish the little
homesteads free of rent for two
years, and supply the colonists
with rations, tools and seeds, and
instruction in their new vocation
until they are sufficiently advanced
in the knowledge of it to make
their labor self-supporting. They
