ILLEGAL INDIGNATION.

Zebulon Vance is the newest martyr
In spite of law which forbade his cleo
ton as national law maker, North Caro-
lima has returned him to the United States
Senate. And because the law cuts OF his
head, it is proposed to canonlze him as a
much-injured individual. Congress VIII
probably declare that it is better policy TO
vindicate its own statute than to allow
Mr.. Vance to be thrust upon the Senate
in the face of positive enactment pro
hibiting'his Acknowledgements as Senator
When we learn how TO respective law
there will be fewer law breakers SO let
Mr.. Vance be made lesson 70 Others, not
in q spirit of vindictiveness, nor as
matter of political prejudice, but purely
out of respect to the solemn statute OF
the land. He insists that the Republicans
have violated the constitution and the
laws; let them, in turn. teach him that he
shall not begin his new political life by
initiating a bad example.

WOMAN SUFFRAGE.

1t need not be accepted that because
the question of extending the suffrage to
woman has been urged with less vigor
during the last few months, that the meas
ure has fallen into the scar and yellow
leaf, as a fashion too outre to be enter
tanned. The stream has deepened, not
subsidized, and this accounts for why the
froth and foam have disappeared. The
men who lent themselves to the advocacy
of extending suffrage to the female branch
of the human family did not do so through
impulse, but were actuated by an impress
sion that it was right to be yielded and
not favor to be granted. This makes
great difference. Where a right is in
volved, and where the conscientious mind
has once acknowledged it to be so; there
can be no retreat. Mr.. Phillips declares
that ten thousand votres in Massachusetts,
are firmly and reasonably convinced that
woman has as much right to be heard in
determining the form Of government and
the character of the laws under which she is
to live, as man. She has certain rela-
tons which she can not trust to the other
sex to maintain, simply because the other
sex does not understand and has always
sighted them. Her protection is involved
in the reformation of certain social regu-
lations. Her postulation as a voter will
at once, it is contended, equalize her in
dustrial relations and this justice i'll that
regard will be the commencement OF her
safety from the temptation to weakness
When body of men Of acknowledged
character, intelligence, and influence as
sumes such position as this, they must
follow it to the end. First, as true gentle
men, believing in matter Of right, they
must acknowledge it regardless of conse-
auences. AS in the matter Of slavery,
many doubted the policy but yet accepted
of the necessity Of freedom, because it was
question of right, so in this controversy
of female suffrage, while hundreds may
feel that it is doubtful and difficult
problem they will never dare to refuse to
support it while they believe in its abb
stract justice. The measure must take its
course, these men will say, and let the
right protect itself
Mr.. Bingham has already introduced,
into the present Congress, proposition
to so amend the constitution that the
| right of all the women in this
country to vote will be secured on the
same terms that the same right is now
given and guaranteed to the men. VI
it's present success there is not much
hope, but of its ultimate triumph there
can be no doubt, if the principle OF rep
resentation and taxation continues to pre-
vail in this country. Progressive lib
erality must carry this measure along

SOMETHING UNPLEASANT.

The ills that flesh is heir to seem to in
crease with the progress Of life. Human
infrmities multiply in an equal ratio with
the human family. Cholera was an in
vention of the early ages of mankind,
but it did not plague the world until long
after the deluge, if our reading on that
subject is correct. Methuselah had no
apprehension Of the black vomit FOR the
smallpox during his nine hundred and
