Proaress Of WOmnn's Rights.

The movement for womans rights is spread
ing over great deal Of land, but whether 1t
is gaining force and vitality or is simply fat
tening out like pancakes the more it spreads
is matter yet to be decided. Woman's rights
have long been firmly established in this city,
for no movement toward progress and re-
form can maintain anything like recognized
existence in America unless it is first put forth
and accepted by New York. Boston some
times ventures to put forth young idea, but,
of late, it generally falls stillborn like too many
other New England babes. Chicago am
bitiously ventures on new notion of what it
calls reform every now and then; but on the
principle "Give dog q bad name and you
may as well hang him" the fact Of it being a
Chicago notion kills it at once. New York
alone is the accepted mother of new ideas, and
as she has placed her seal of ratification on
womans rights through her worthy represen-
tatives and citizens, Miss Susan Anthony and
Mrs. Cady Stanton, it goes forth strong and
girdcd as with on armor throughout the CONT
nent and to the ends thereof.
We some. time ago noticed the pas
sage of bills in the Wyoming Legis-
lature giving women the suffrage in that
Territory, and also the insidious advances OF
the ''isms" among the grand danes Of the
South. We have recently added to the list
Mormondom, under the new dispensation,
which by direct revelation from the Mormon
Heaven itself declares woman entitled to vote
in Church matters, and which by more ter
restrial decree recently gave woman the priv
ilege to hold meetings and to forward petitions
to Congress in opposition to that bill of Mr.
Cullom, which no doubt he (Mr. Cnllom,
fondly believed was calculated directly to
release the polygamic wives from unbearable
tyranny. The appointments or election o
women to postmasterships, legislative clerk
ships and other civil positions, and their
advents into the medical and legal professions,
and even Wall street circles, are matters OF
every day occurrence.
1t has been said that the only right a
married woman has is the right to ba
divorced from her husband. Taken as a
whole, the remark is little too stron@ She
has few other rights, which we Will not emu
merate; but even that right Of divorce, which
is claimed to be her only one, is about to be
extended and increased until it shall become
what Chadband called ''boon." The Su-
premc Court Of the United States has case
before it on appeal involving the validity OF
Indiana divorces throughout all the States, and
seems inclined, according to report, to declare
in favor of the doctrine that man or woman
in New York, Louisiana, California or Alaska,
or any part Of the habitable United States and
Territories can obtain divorce in Indiana
which is just as good as one obtained at home,
and great deal cheaper and surer. This will
give the Hoosier State the palm for divorces,
and centralize all the separating or distinctive
powers Of the divorce laws of the country in

The GOVERNMENT TELEGRAPH SYSTEM -
The first operation of the telegraph in England
in the hands of the government was duly
chronicled TO us as great failure, without any
allowance being made for the necessary de-
rangements incident to an extensive change in
system; but now we hear Of quite another
without precedent-especially domestic de-
spatches are sent in far greater numbers than
ever before. The people appreciate the diff
ference between private management and the
government. We hope this point will not be
Here, also, the use Of the telegraph must be
popularized by putting it in the hands of the
government.

Senator Morton ON Cuba asd tho Admin
istrntiOu.

Mr.. Morton, of Indiana, made strong and,
! in our estimation, seasonable stirring up OF
the administration on the Cuban question, In
the Senate yesterday. So far as we, outside
the State Department, are informed Of the
present position Of this question, it is not sat
isfactory. General Sickles in his negotiations
has been brought to standstilI, our neutrality
laws appear to be enforced with remarkable
zeal In behalf of Spain, and, in short, the
whole course of the administration on this sub
ject would seem to justify the opinion that
General Grant does not care button for the
island of Cuba or that he has done nothing for
fear of troublesome complications. No doubt
his exceedingly conservative policy regarding
Cuba has, to some extent, been shaped by bis
very conservative Secretary of State; but it is
possible that Mr.. Senator Sumner (whose
special idea at present is the Alabama
claims) has a finger in this pie. His
special objection against the Cabans has been
that they have not in their constitution abol-
ished negro slavery, and have no intention to
abolish it; but it has been abundantly shown
that upon this matter he is all wrong. What
ever may be the embarrassments which hold
General Grant to the policy of Micawber, the
policy of ''waiting for something to turn up,
he ought to know that the mystery of his
present attitude in relation to Cuba is anything
but satisfactory to the American people.
Hence we think this speech of Senator Morton
is not unreasonable, and that few more such
speeches in Congress, with little sharper
accent, would do no harm cat the other end
Of the avenue"

CRUELTY TO SEAMEN.-It seems that the
terrible stories paraded by some Of the papers
yesterday to the effect that Captain Peabody,
of the ship Neptune, and his officers, had per-
that ship during her late voyage from Liver
pool are denied IN toto by the captain, who is
vouchcd for by his employers as an exceed
ingly humane gentleman. Seamen certainly
have enough troubles and endure enough hard
ships without having added to them the great
cruelties charged against Captain Peabody ;
and certainly it seems improbable that any one,
a seaman himself, would be SO barbarous as to
commit such cruelties without great provoca-
ton.

The Persian Gnlf-Our Special Reports
from West Asia.

Tne FcrSinu 9ult-Our SpeCiHl AcpOrts
from West Asia.
Bya special correspondence from Bushire,
dated on the 18th and 10th of December last
year, we are enabled to present to the readers
of the HERALD to-day grand industro-poltical
exposition of the condition of affairs which
existed at that time in this remote quarter of
the world, away long shore Of the Persian
Gulf Not too remote, however, or outside
the reach of the grand civilizng agencies Of the
hour-steam and electricity-as will be seen
by our letters. The writer describes the line
of the new steam route from India to Europe by
way Of the Euphrates valley, and announces the
encouraging fact that steam vessels will run on
the waters Of the Euphrates in the month of
April next. This event will produce diver
sion both in the feeling and tone Of the public
mind in that quarter Of the world, change
which was much needed in consequence Of the
agitation and soreness which had been induced
intermeddling of the British officials and their
agents, and the ''muddle" and general bungle
which, as is usual in such cases and from such
sources, ensued in consequence. The special
exhibit which is given of the state of the pearl
fisheries, the mode of working them, of the
national commerce Of the Cult, Of the opium
trade and the slave system among the Arabs
and the imports of slaves will command a
widespread attention in the American mer-
camille world, as well as from the humanitari-
ans and philosophers who dwell on this
side Of the Atlantic, and who will have theil
experiences enlarged and their sympathies
still more refined by perusal of the HERALD's
special letters from Bushire.

THE POLICE CoMMIssIoNERsHIP.-T demo-
cratic caucus in the Legislature yesterday
renominated Judge Bosworth for the Polioe
Commissionership which he at present holds.
In the course of the discussion members stated
that the position would not probably be in
existence more than few weeks. The repub-
lican caucus nominated Samuel Booth, OF
Brooklyn, to succeed Mr.. Bosworth as Police
Commissioner 1t is rather an empty honor.

ofreaders In States north OF this. Its circulation
Is increasing, and lhe probabilities are that the
Herald, before many years, will be 'one OF the
most widely and thoroughly read papers In the
country. The attention OF advertisers, North and
South IS turned to this paper. They are, IN the
most emphatic m manner, affirming that 1t is one OF

because they do not suit our columns. We adver-
tise nothing OF the propriety Of which we are In
doubt SO far as we can ascertain our advertisers

than others, deserve to be patgonized, and We do
not hesitate to adplse readers to give the pre-
ference to such persons. Keep an eye to our ad-
yertising columns, and buy ofthose whose names
