RUNS DoINGs.-Iowa has been COM
PEELED to discharge ''lady" teacher in
one of its public schools for drunkenness.
p. J. O'Connor of Boston, took strych-
nine the other night. a note was found
upon him, of which the following is an
extract: II am tired of life. Rum is the
cause of all evil"
"A young woman, not yet out OF her
teens, wearing comedy face, a heavy
tangle of curls, and respectable suit of
founced black alpaca, was the disgust of
a car full of passengers from Northamp-
ton to Chicopee one day last week Her
first exploit was to slap the face of a
grave and portly fellow passenger. who
had shared his seat with her, and ribald
song and profanity followed, till the
drunken miss was put off the train.
A crowd was attracted in Wooster
street n Y, Monday, by the spectacle OF
a respectfully attired female in state OF
eIoonent intoxication. A cart was pro-
cured. and she was lifted into it by two
stalwart policemen, and tumbled away.
Mrs. Julia Stebbins was found dead
in her bed at hotel in Jersey City, few
days since. 1t appeared on the inquest
that she was woman OF property, VINO
had become addicted to drink; that she
owed one firm in New York $20OOO, and
although her fortune was very large, no.
thing could stand her reckless expendi-
lures and that when last seen, the night
before, she was drunk, death resulting,
doubtless, from intoxication.

speech of Daniel Roberts, ESQ, at
the Female Suffrage Convention
at Burlington.

Mr. Roberts said this call was unex-
peoted. His opinions upon the question
were mt absolutely fixed. The question
of the ballot ior woman was one which
had fastened itself upon the attention of
rejecting men, and had secured the sup
port of some Of the keenest, the profound
est and most cultivated intellects of the
age. 1t was question which could not
be brushed aside by ridiculo, but must be
met and settled, and, to remain settled,
must be settled right. So far as the
movement represents an effort to enlarge
the sphere Of woman's proper activi-
ties, and free her from the limita-
tions which custom had imposed upon
her development into all that woman
could make of herself untrammelled, it
must secure the sympathy of all generous
souls. Since the institution of christian
ity, the condition of woman, though its
influence. had been improving and as
civilization advances, we see one hinder
ance after another giving way, and she is
advancing every day towards equality of
right privilege and condition with man.
And now comes the question Of the ballot
Though for himself he had hitherto been
content, perhaps through tradition, edu-
cation and custom, to gee the work of
society divided among the sexes sub
stantially as at present, yet it was
difficult, especially in the United States,
and at this time, when the right OF voting
is based upon the simple humanity of the
voter and his membership of the State,
without reference to property, education
or race, to answer the demand of woman
for the ballot, claiming it as her right, be-
cause she is human and member of
the State He thought he rightly rep
resented the feelings of the voters of Yer
mont in saying that whenever the women
of the State shall ask for the ballot, it will
be accorded to them.

DEATH OF Mrs. STRoNa.-We have
to record this morning the death of Mrs.
Harriet Strong, widow of the late Hon.
Moses Strong, one of the Oldest and most
esteemed ladies of Rutland. She was a
daughter of the Hon. Enoch Woodbridge
of Vergennes, formerly Judge of the
Supreme Court, and an aunt of Hon.
Frederick E. Woodbridge. She was the
second wife of Judge Strong, and at the
time of her marriage the widow of DIR.
Hopkins. She made her home known for
its genial hospitality in olden time, by
the graceful manner with which it was
dispensed. She has been for many years
a connecting link between former and
the present generation, and was one OF
several highly esteemed elderly matrons
who enjoy the high regard of our COM
munity. She was proverbial for her be-
nevolence in times past, and her emf.
nent kindly sympathy and generosity.
Thus has another landmark of the first
families, whose prominence made Rut.
land society among the most genial and
cultivated in Vermont, passed away
We are not appraised of the time of her
funeral.

JUSTICE.
MIR. GARRIsoN's LETTER.

There Is great deal of defamation
about the rights of man. as though he on
ly were worthy of recognition as Il human
being; but how little is said about the
rights of woman 3? In almost every de-
p Irment of life, in the management of the
great machinery of society, she is treated
as an inferior being. Her property (what
little she is allowed to possess by her rapa-
cious brother nam her liberty, her life,-
in short, all her inalienabla rights Are
absolutely at the mercy of those who claim
dominion over her. Politically, like the
southern slave, she has no voice in the
formation or support of the government
under which she lives, and which she is
forced to obey none in the passage of
any law. Woman know that thy rights
are The same as tiny brath,r T, and dare to
claim and exercise them. Cur race must
rise or sink together. Our duties are not
necessarily the same, in all cases, but our
23Qhts are identical and must be asserted.
