Woman rs a Blacksmith.
From the Revolution

1t is common thing for men. arguing
against the doctrine of woman's rights, to
conclude with-''Ohi well, if you don't
like to remain in the quiet of home, but
will persist in going out to do the rough
work of life, you must do so; we won't op-
pose you; work on the roads if you like,
or do blacksmithing."
1t is in vain for us to say, "But we don't
know any women who want to do black
smithlng; if they do, certainly they should
have liberty to practice that art" AS soon
as a woman expresses desire to vote or to
extend the field of woman's work, fight
ing. road-making. bod-carrying and black
smithing are pointed out to her as the in
evitable and fit sequence to her PROPOSE
ton.
The writer, having been Tin consequence
of progressive tendencies) more than once
assigned to blacksmithing as her proper
vocation, takes pleasure in announcing to
any OF her sisters who may be thinking of
availing themselves of this avenue, gener-
ously left open by men, that there is, in
the city of Toledo, Ohio, q woman carrying
on that business, and making thereby a
comfortable living.
A few months since q card appeared in
one of the papers, inserted by Mrs. Sic
bert, German woman, to the effect that
she wonld carry on the trade of blacksmith
ing and wagon-making, practised by her
ately deceased husband, and bespeaking
for herself the favor of his patrons.
Sho continues the business, and it is ap-
parently prosperous, bringing in perhaps
more than days works in her own legitI-
mate ''sphere" (washing and cleaning)
would have done.
To any woman possessed with strong
fancy for the business of blacksmithing
and wagonmaking, and inspired by this
example to attempt it, who yet hesitates,
through doubt of her own muscular power
] nd physical ability. we would say that
Mrs. Siebert does her work as women are
accustomed to do mary things-by proxy
through the Representative" system.
She is the head and manager of the bust
ness, Indeed, ii is said she was always SOY
having men to execute her orders.
Light is breaking upon our pathway
Another apparently insuperable obstacle
has been surmounted. In the example
and success of Mrs. Siebert, we see how
woman, struggling for a foothold in broad
er paths-an entrance into more remune-
rative employments-may meet and satisfy
the stern command which confronts her

Remarkable CASE OF Petrifaeiion

A writer from Reading to the Pittsburg
Christian Radical relates q remarkable and
el'-authenticated case of pet
of human body:
Mrs. Catherine Hippie died at Monro-
via, Kansas, on the ed of February, 1866,
in the Goth year of her age. She was bur-
led there on the Oath. In December, 1868,
her husband died at his home in fremont,
Schuylkil county, Pennsylvania, request
ing that his wifes remains be brought and
buried by his side in fremont Cemetery
On the goth of February, 1869, three years
after the mother had been buried, her
grave WAS reopened. and after the removal
of the covering of the outer coffin it was
diseovere d that both collins were filled
with aJdark colored water, and on raising
the!coffin to the surface of the earth, they
found 1t TO be remarkably heavy.
The coffin was emptied of the water, and
on examination of the body it was pro-
nounced by those present completely pet
rifed. The color of the face and hands
was, perhaps, two shades darker than nat
ural, and &C newEat resembling a vanished
sInface. Thy features were as full and
perfect as when she was alive, so that all
who had known her, and came to see the
remains, instantly recognized the wellre-
membered countenance. The body re-
manned exposed to atmospheric influence
for four days, in order to ascertain wheth-
er any change would take place, prepare
tory to'its transportation eastward. No
change whatever WAS manifest. The re-
mains were roughly handled at all transfer
points, were transferred fourteen hundred
miles by rail, and before the burial ut IRE
mont the body WAS again examined by DIR.

thoroughly petrifed, and in the sane con-
dition as it was when taken out of the

that where time has not been thus taken by the

tonic. The reputation Of the Bitters as a specific
for dyspepsia, liver complaint. constipation and
nervous debility. has in some measure thrown into
the shade its merits as a preventive and cure of
other ailments. but all who have ever taken IT,

One or The Wrecks OF Cape Ann.

A correspondent of the Boston Advertiser
going west over the Boston & Albany, hap
pened on this homely tale, almost TRACE
dy: While sitting on the rear platform OF
the train, and gazing on the hills and
valleys of old Berkshire as they reflected
the morning beams, n heavy sigh from a
stranger sitting by my side brought me
back to the earth. My neighbor was o
strong, brawny man, with a Scottish ac-
cent. He said ''wud God my hurt was
light as yurs. but pace has gain for ever
more, and what dud last nicht now makes
my life curse" Then turning close that
could hear amid the racketing
cars, he said: "Wud sc listen ?" His
story was to the effect that on
Tuesday night he came home from hard
days work as fisherman in Gloucester,
and, as he entered the door, his wifi. To
whom he had been married twelve years
ago, with distain tossed him the wedding
ring, which she had worn since her betro-
thai, and told him his presence she could
no longer abide. To her ears some tale of
scandal had come, and without seeking an
explanation she had decided upon her
course. He said, "Iupbraided her not
did not abuse her, or harm hair of her
head, but in spirit of intense passion
seized an axe, and went through my house,
and broke up my furniture which cost
three hundred dollars. with the exception
of bed, which my wife purchased
with her own money. To my acts of pas
sion she made no remonstrance, neither
did she re5uke me; and when all was over.
as l turned from the door the last time, l
told her, after what had done that night,
L could never stay in Gloucester more and
| never shall. But in some distant place
among the lakes Of the West, / should try
TO earn an honest living and set up new
home. leave her house which is paid

plain gold ring. he told me he should have
1t enlarged and wear it, for no other being
could he ever love as he had her, and once
settled down he should esk forgiveness for
his errors. and ask her once moIe to share
his fortunes, 'for," said be, sit was the
