IN Tilton's biography of Victoria " ood
hull. the self nominated candidate Of the
female suffragists for President, it is sta
ted that all her acts and utteranccs f1I
years past and at the present time are die
lated by the spirit of DemoSthencs. This
is an important statement, for it precludes
the possibility of Mrs. Woodruff ever en-.
rering UPON the duties Of President should
>he be elected for if she does and says
nothing of importance but what is dicta
tated by Denosthenes she Is practically
that venerable Grecian in another form
and the constitution says that no foreign
or shall be eligible to the Presidency Of thu
United States Again, Victoria Woodruff
positively asserts and maintains the equal
ity Of woman with man-that the former
is competent co fill eve~y position held by
the latter: now if this be true how does it
happen that her familiar spirit is that Of

this admitting the superiority Of man !:

4 SrtHTLING THEoRY.-We hate
to be ciphered out Of existence. even
to confirm the infallibility of science.
and sometimes prefer 10 believe that
figures will lie. Now is a good time
10 use our negative crcelClIty.
Alphonse Adhemer, Il celebrated
mathematician. starts a theory that
the earth is covered by a deluGe once
in 10. 500 years. on the following cal
culations: During that cycle one
pole of the earth enjoys seven days
more sunshine than the other, and
at present we have seven more days
in the northern hemisphere than the
southern. which means 200 years Of
freezing at one pole against POO years
of melting in the other. The effect
of this is to form such an immense
mass of ice at the less favored end of
the globe as to change the form of
the planet. and displace its gravity
for a league or so. This dIspIace-
ment draws to the ice-hOund regions
almost all the seas and oceans, and
eventually causes Il change IN the
oscillation of the earth, 50 as to re-
verse the order of things, and bring
the greater power of the sun upon
the frozen region. Then suddenly
as the pent-up waters in the Alpine
valley burst their barriers and des-
troy a village. so this gigantic polar
glacier by its disruption overwhelms
a hemisphere. As a proof of his
theory. he points to the effects Of the
last or Noah's flood. and reckoning
from the accepted date of that, the
next Will be upon us in the year
7254. \. d. We are not personally
interested. of course, unless it should
happen about resurrection time, but
We are supposed to have little con
sileration for our descendants.
