AMADoR MINE.-A curious story is

mine, now the richest in the world The
mine was first commenced by Vermont

joined by another Vermonter named
Chamberlain. Chamberlain at last be-
came discouraged, but Hayward stuck to
it, but his men all left him, and he was
on the point of starvation. He then
went to Chamberlain for some money,
but was refused, but before he closed the
interview Chamberlain gave him $4,000

fellow he said, with California hearth
ness "do your best" With this money
Hayward recommended and he bad
worked until it was all spent, and his
men were reduced to bag of beans for
nourishment, when to the gloom of hope
the precious ore blazed suddenly up.
When the mine was paying $4,000 a
month, Hayward made over to his friend
one perfect third of it. Chamberlain
retired upo sl,500,0OO, and moved east
to educate his children, Hayward buy

ward grew tired and he sold out the mine
to stock company. The mine will
make 100000 net this year, and its
president said last week. "The Amador
mine will hold out longer than we will"

MINISTER WAsHBURNE COMING HOME.
1t is announced that Hon. Mr.. Wash
burne, our heroic and generous Minister
TO France, is about to leave his post for
a short time and visit the scene oe his
former political labors. This vacation
is eminently necessary in view of the
immense fatigues and wearing excite
ments through which he has passed since
July, 1870, No man ever worked har-
der or rose more rapidly to the nights Of
European fame in diplomatic position
than has the untiring and Jealous Mr..
Washburne. At one time holding in his
hands the thunderbolt of Prussian wrath,
half threatening the angry Paris which
was too anguish stricken to know reason,
at another he appears as the successful
mediator, and averts the destruction Of
the great capital. Amid the maddest
Communnistic excitements he has al
ways moved serene, tranquil, his pres
ence very benediction. At one mo-
ment certain misguided journals of Par
is thought fit to criticise rather severely
some of his actions, but since then those
same papers have made humble apollo
giles. Had the hot-headed Versaillaise
listened to Mr.. Washburne the life of the
venerable Partisan Archbishop would
never have been taken.
In view of all The influence which Hon.
Mr.. Washburne has so successfully held
abroad, always to the honor of the Re-
public which he represents, there should
be unanimous greeting of the veteran
politician and diplomat when he arrives,
a series Of ovations in New York, and
Boston, and Chicago, and Washington,
which shall show him true talent, tact
and tirmness are respected in their rep
resentatives by the American people. II
the French could revere Franklin, and
hang their resorts of pleasure in mourn
ing when he died, they will be sure to
give to Washburne double reverenceand
praise, for his work has been immeasura-
bly, greater in the Paris mission than was
that of the renowned Bostonian who
made the tightening our slave. Let us
not be outdone by the French in rec
ognizing the services of a man thorough
ly cosmopolitan in character, once the
Father of the House"

RIGHTS OF MARRIED MEN.-The fol-

ed by his wife prior to their marriage.
Second section-No marriage shall here
after discharge the wife from liability to
pay the debts contracted by her before
such marriage, but she and all property
which she may hold in her own right
shall be held liable for the payment of
all debts, whether contracted before or
after marriage in the same manner as if
she continued sole and unmarried.

Senator Morton on the Knklux Bill.

In his great speech at St. Louis, Senator
Morton made the following remarks on the
K-uklux bill passed by Congress:
My friends, this condition of things in
the South demanded kuklux bill. 1t is
one of the best measures that has ever
passed Congress. The moral effect of it
has already been wonderful. The mere
passage of that bill has saved hundreds of
lives and thousands of men from tOture
and punishments. That bill is one of the
blessings that has been conferred on the
South. Why, my friends, if there was
any doubt about the constitutionality of
that bill-I don't think there is, but if
there was-I would cast it in favor of pro-
tecting life, liberty and property. lap
plause. The courts say that where man
is on trial you must give the defendant
the benefit of the doubt, if there be one,
and [ say if there be doubt l will give
the defenseless people of the Sonth the
benefit of the doubt. Applause am
so used to hearing everything denounced
as unconstitutional that was necessary to
carry on war and preserve this country,
that l am not very much frightened about
it. Why, you know the argument was
when the war broke out, that there was no
power in the government to coerce State
to remain in the Union. That was the
Democratic doctrine everywhere, and the
argument was that in order to prevent
violation of the Constitution, that sacred
instrument, we rather let it be destroyed
entirely by the rebellion; but | could
never see the force or propriety of that.
Then it was denied that there was any
power to pass a law to issue greenbacks.
Then it was denied that there was any
power to pass the cOnscription act to draft
men into the army. Then it was said that
Lincoln had not the power to issue the
emancipation proclamation. And then it
was said that the reconstruction acts were
null and void. Then it was said that Con-
gress was not a lawful body and had not
the power to submit these amendments to
the people. And now it is said that this
great measure, protection of life. liberty
and property in the South, is unconstitu
tional. / have heard this cry of "wolf ("
so often that [ am not alarmed. In this
case / believe the acts were constitu ional
beyond all doubt. But, as I said before, ii
is great emergency and the case is an eX
ceptional one. There cannot be probably
in this generation stronger cause for the
exercise of extraordinary power than exists
in this very matter of the condition of the
South. And if there be any doubt, [ for
one shall cast that in favor of protection
I [Applause.] The kukluX bill is dangerous
only to muderers and robbers. 1t is, how
ever, dangerous to another class, it is dam
gerous to that class of Democi attic pOliti-
clans who have been hoping to be able to
carry all the Southern States for the Dem
ocratic ticket by means of this very ku-
kluX organization.

Gail Hamilton ON the Need of Woman Suf-

From the Independent
The third ground on which the ballot is
demanded for woman is that she needs it
for her own protection against man. Men,
left to themselves, make laws for women
which are unj justand oppressive. Women
must have the law-making power in their
own hands, in order to secure fair play.
| deny this wholly. [ deny it in full
view OF the fact that men have made laws
unjust for women that the only fear of
personal injury felt by woman is of bad
men, and that very large part of the suf
fering and sorrow of women comes from
the selfishness or ignorance of the good
men with whom they are connected. In
the face of all the American women, as a
class, do not need protection against Amer
lean men, as class; that, if they do need
it, they will never get it, either from the
ballot or from any other source and that,
on the whole, the law as it stands is more
favorable to women than it would have
been if women had made the law for them
selves.
If we have come to the point that women
must defend themselves against men, we
may give up the battle at once. One man
is stronger than one woman, and ten men
are stronger than ten women, aud the
nineteen millions of men in this country
will subdue, capture and execute or eXpel
the nineteen millions of women, just
as soon as they set about it. 1t is not
even, like the suppression of the
late rebellion, q question of time.
They could do it in half an hour any day
What is the use, then, of women's talk
ing about protecting themselves against
men? The slaves of the South received
the suffrage for their protection but
protection against women? Against the
power that gave them the suffrage? That
is absurd. 1t is as if woman should say
to a man: Il believe you are burglar
and mean to rob me- Give me agun, that
[ may defend myself against you" If he
means to rob her, it is idle to expect him
to give her the gun. If he gives her the
gun, it is proof that he is no burglar, and
she does not need to defend herself against
him.
