BOUTVELL IN THE SOUTH.

1t is to be hoped that no sincere North
Carolinian went to hear Mr. Boutwell, on
Wednesday with any idea of comforting
speech. 1t would not be in itself an unreason-
able expectation. The people of an important
State who had been dragged into a rebellion
which was from the first distasteful to them.
who, being in, fought courageously to
the end, and who for the seven
wears which have since elapsed have
suffered more severely from the plunderers
of peace than they did from the rough riders
of war, might very well have expected some
words of kindness and cheer from leading
member of the Cabinet who came down to
talk to them of their Relations 80 tie nation.
Especially did they have the right TO expect
some such decent consideration even from a
political adversary, because they bave just
now turned their backs finally upon
the wranglings and useless chickering's
of the past, and have sOlemnly accepted in
open Convention a platform of principles az
truly Republican as that which Mr.. Boutwell,
is advocating, and a candidate for the Presi-
dency whose services in the cause of freedom
will easily outive the ISLANDERS of Mr.. Bout
we'll In all the great questions which have
hitherto agtated our politics, there is
no division among the people of North Caro-
lima. But while portion of them are still
content to be governed from Washington, the
majority, and nearly all their educated and
thrifty citizens demand authority to govern
themselves like the people of the Northern
States. They ask nothing but the barest
Justice from their fellow citizens and the Gov
ernment. But Mr.. Boutwell,, speaking for the
Administration, sharply lectures them, and tells
them they are not yet to be trusted. In COM
pensation, however, he tells them that the
President can govern them much better than
they can govern themselves. These are his
patronizing words: "You may rely with con-
fidence upon the indisposition of the Presi-
"dent to use the national power as a substi-
"tute for, or even 9s an aid to, local law;
"and you may count rs well upon a sturdy
resolution in the discharge of duty, which
" characterized him in war, and which, finally,
controls him in all the exigencies of civil
administration"
If any contumacious Carolinian should think
of answering awe prefer not TO rely upon
the Presidents ruling us wisely and strongly;
ave prefer to rule ourselves as you do in
Massachusetts" Mir. Boutwell, is obliged to
inform them with sad severity that such o

SUFFRAGE AND STOCKINGS.

Miss Anthony, it is reported, going up the
other day to Philadelphia to attack the Con-
vention, declared that if she were refused
hearing both there and at Baltimore, she
would give up and go home to stocking

back which the women received there from
the Grant Wilson party and the terrifying
manifesto which she accordingly Eliminates

from this lamentable moral suicide we do

limited in resOurcesf Is there no jaste miieu be-
tween drudgery and craftsmanship. no halfway

Seriously, 1t seems to us that Miss Anthony
has touched upon the true secret of woman's
wrongs here as she has not done in any of her
speeches. The great mass OF women have
been content to make themselves ministers to
the mere physical comfort of men. The aver
age girl, as girl, dresses, dances. plays or
sings first to attract and then to secure lover;
as q wife she keeps his house, darns stockings,
patches trowsers, makes preserves and pickles,
or else presides at balls or dinner parties, ac-
cording to the society to which she belongs;
as a mother she oversees her children's clothes
and bodies, and sends them to kindergartens
and boarding schools or to church or Sunday
schools, for any training which brain or soul may
require. No wonder she turns TO the ballot
box for relief after darning all such unsightly
holes in the framework of society. Nor has it
been matter of compulsion, but absolutely
of choice. How many women can be counted
in any circle of society who have voluntarily
neglected fashionable visiting or left the
drudgery of housekeeping to Others in order
to become the real companions of their hus-
bands in their business or any outside current
of thought OF work or either to keep step
with their children in their studies, or share
their intimate condolences when they had be-

prosy communications TO TIE Independent
newspaper The pOstmasters are scolding, The
collectors are swearing, and, no doubt if we
could hear from the Reverend Cramcr in
Copenhagen, we should learn that he is doing
both in the beer-shOps of that city over his

When politicians lose their temper. 1t is a
good sign that they see trouble ahead. Thus
far we have had no reason to be otherwise
than good-natured, and we did at one time
promise ourselves a kindly contest. But this
Presidential election will have in it most of
the elements of free fight, and, if our op-
ponents set us a bad example, we may our
selves be betrayed into an occasional person
ality. The first thing which it becomes them
to remember is, that if certain citizens-4uite
a number of them, in fact-please to vote for
Mr.. Greeley, there is nothing in the Constitu-
ton of the United States. or of any Of the
States, to prevent their doing so. We mention
this little fact because some of the Grant
journals appear to be of contrary opinion.

CH4NGF4BLE WEATHER,

When the work of the Baltimore Conven-
ton had been most happily accomplished, not
withstanding the general and willing acquies-
cence of the Democratic party in the decision
of its accredited representatives, we antici-
pated occasional expressions of dissatisfaction
in this quarter or that; and we knew that the
denomination newspapers would make the
most of them. We expected the very longest
reports of the very smallest anti-Greeley-
Democratic meetings; We knew that we should
be told how Jones, "a lifelong Democrat" in
SkOwhegan, was indignant at the turn which
affairs had taken, and how Smith of some
where in Alabama was perfectly Disguised.
And it was with this sort of intelligence that
the Grant newspapers RECALLED and refreshed
Their readers up to about the middle of last
week. Then there came short period during
which they treated the Cincinnati and Balti-
more nominations with perfect, we may say
with icy, contempt. The least they could say
of them was that they had fallen stillborn.
But we live in time of rapid changes
The very sheet which assured us that the
Liberal party was "beaten before blow had
"been struck has altered its tune with ven
eeance. We read great many Grant news
papers, and just now we are compelled to
declare that a kind of hopeless rage seems to
be the predominant passion in the bosoms OF
their unfortunate conductors. They tell as
many fibs as ever, but they seem to have lost
their relish for telling them, and to doubt
whether they can keep up the pace of men
dacity until after election. We do rot
hear any more of rash, promiscuous, and
lunatic betting. There is general taking OIL
of coats in the Grant crowd, and an apparent
conviction that there is business to be done
before all is over. Mr.. Boutwell, rushes down
TO North Carolina and makes the very worst
sneeches which he ever made in his life. Gen.
Wilson begins to send long end GeaIISaY

TTRNED Up.

Perhaps some of our readers may remember
an article published by US only last Thursday
entitled Editorials to Order,n in which we
exhibited the manufacture of newspaper stuff
for the country press which is carried on by
the Grant Office holders in Washington. We
gave several extracts all in the raw-head and
bloody-bOnes style, and setting forth the
frightful calamities, moral, financial, and
material, which would Overtake the land,
should Mr.. Greeley be elected. 1t appears
that the article aforesaid, of which we had
before us only the Washington proof, has been
sent upon its errand, for we find it printed as
original in The Free Press, published at
Easton, Penn. of this sheet, gentleman
bearing the characteristic name of j. X. Dawes
is editor. 1t is hardly necessary for us to say
that he is the Postmaster at EastOn. His CO.
lsbOrer is a Mr.. Mingle, who was Postmaster,
but (if we are correctly informed) gave up
his place because of some little trouble with
his accounts.
Thus it appears that Mr.. Robert Douglass,
DR. Grants Private Secretary, has time enough
to spare from his official duties to superintend
the manufacture of editorials for the country
Gnnt newspapers, and is good enough to send
them in type in case any of the editors afore-
sail should not be able to read MS. These,
no doubt, will be largely quoted by the lead
ing denomination journals as evidence of the
course which the current of public opinion is
taking in the country. We know nothing Of
tn, abilities of Messrs. Dawes and Mingle, but
if they cannot write better articles than those
sent to them by Mr.. Robert Douglass from
Washington, our advice to them is to give up
their present calling, to which their call must
be uncommonly feeble. Now, in what news

1t is fortunate that the attempted assassina-
ton of the King of Spain took place under Il
Liberal Ministry, for 1T is now improbable that
the incident will be used, as Sagasta or Ser
ranO would certainly have used it, as justl-
fication of repressive measures. The affair
should have tendency TO strengthen both
the King and the Cabinet through
the natural reaction against violence.
The fact that one of the assassins
was killed and two others caught will proba-
bly, make it easy to determine their political
affinities and the possible instigatOrs of the
crime. A repetition of the mystery surround
ing the murder of Marshal Prim is thus rem
dered impossible. The revelations which may
be made by these rufiians may throw light on
the former event, and seriously affect the
position of parties.
