REFLECTIONS.

We are rejoicing in the glorious sun
light that floods the earth with its mel
low radiance and seems to make all ma
ture joyous and bright. We say, how
long it is since the sun shone. And yet
the sun has been shining just as bright
ly all this long, dreary, rainy winter as
it has to-day. Far up above the clouds,
that show to US only an aspect of gloom
and darkness, has been all the while
brightness and beauty-an eternal sum-
mer; and the upper surface of these
same lowering clouds must have been
beautiful to behold. Think of this, o
mortals, when the sorrowful earth is
veiled by storm-clouds when the
warmth and light of the day-god cannot
penetrate the envious curtain that hangs
like pail over the fair face of nature.
1t is just so in our inner life. The
clouds of adversely and trouble close
darkly around us, and We too often de-
spairingly think that the beneficent
sunlight of Gods love and providence i.
not shining, when the only difficulty is
that we have not the faith to look ur
through the darkness and gloom and
discern the calm radiance of divine love
and tenderness that is ever out-shinina
from our Fathers face-ever ready tC
enfold US in its glow.
Friends, let US learn to look beyond
the clouds. PoRTIA.

a race of healthy women among us
despite any eXhausting peeuliarities of
our western climate.
Fashion will, undoubtedly, go on still
teaching her vOtaries that there is
exquisite beauty and refinement alike in
a lady's small waist and in her delicate
health. While she does this, her fol-
lowers will unquestionably continue to
lay a little health daily, (Or nightly as
a cheerful sacrifice, upon her altar.
This is all very pitiful, but there is no
remedy except to create for them a more
humane goddess, whom they may less
harmfully worship. Meantime, the ele-
CANT lady may probably become the
mother of one or two children, and per-
haps she is about as likely to entail her
fragile constitution upon hersOn as upon
her daughter. In the next generation,
will it be necessary to ask, Have we a
healthy man among US?

bic from experience, as we proceed with
our labors, that it is much easier for the
theologians to reconstruct their creeds
so as TO include the reforms than for the
world to stop moving. The Bible, I'M
der priestly control, has been made a
drag upon progress ever since We can re-
member. Whether by right or wrong
construction, 1 shall not stop to inquire
which, it has been made to endorse a
great share of the popular errors that
have warred against the progressive
tendencies of the human race. In the
end, however, the priests manage by
hook or by crook to make the Bible con-
form to each step of development which
they could not successfully oppose.
They ought by this time TO have learned
something from the success which has
attended them on previous occasions,
and commence the work of conforming
before they are pushed to the wall
1t is high time that your correspond
ent ''Tri-aster" had begun to make his
view of the Bible status of woman en-
brace her full equality before the law,
for such is the inevitable, Bible or no
Bible. If the Bible stands in the way
of Human Rights, so much the worse
for the Bible. If it be a good book, it
will not oppose, but support good things.
He says that the Bible has sustained
some rude shocks from Astronomy and
Geology, and it is plain that if he does
not set himself at work pretty soon he
will be obliged to record another severe
shock by adding Anthropology on the
Science of Government to the list.
''rri-astern and all the rest of mankind
should know before a great while that
the Bible has no power to make wrong
right or right wrong, for the Almighty
established these conditions several
years before the Bible was written and
compiled, and in order to place them
out Of the reach of vain-glorious and
superserviceable priests to interpolate
and alter and Of cunning and selfish lay
men to steal, He engraved them not
upon stone, but upon the enduring tab
lets Of the human heart. 7. w. d.

LETTER FROM COTTAGE GROVE.
COTTAGE Grove, April II, 1872.

COTTAGE GROVE, April II, 1872.
EDITOR NEW NORTHWEST;
Although 1 have never written any
thing for the public eye, would like to
say something in regard to common
schools in Oregon. We have a school
law that has many good points, but
which almost fails in its object. The
object of common schools is to educate
the masses, by providing means from
the common funds to educate those who
are not able to help themselves. But to
apportion the common school money
according to the number Of children
gives it to the pOpulous districts and
helps the weak but little-whereas the
money ought to be apportioned accord
ing to the number of teachers employed.
1t costs as much to hire a teacher of the
same grade to teach twelve children as
forty. J. p. 7.

gltimate targets for the press of a nation
man one suffering woman who has been
lIOsI unJustly scarified in her own flesh
oy the iron teeth of law.
A., me iears of women of one another, lest
tney should be compromised bv those
tney imagine less reputable than them
serves, Is as amusing as pitiful. I am
lolu Ihat the English women were quite
nervous at the report that Anna Dicyiu-
son, Kate Field, and Olive Logan talked
OF visiting that eOuntry-they were so
afraid lest they, by some indiscretiOu.
might lnjure the suffrage movement.
While each OF these are equally afraid of
each other and the movement, the weak
minded and the ministers are afraid of
us, one and all, and we in turn are afraid
of each other. The women of Kansas
were greatly troubled by Lucy Stone,
when she Travelled through the State,
because she did not bear her husbands
name, and had publicly protested against
the civil code in the legal marriage,
while she is equally disturbed with
Victoria Woodruff for following her eX-
ample. Women with two and three
husbands living at the same time, who
advocate the mOnOgamic relation, are
afraid of me, though Inever had but one
husband, and advocate divorce for the
hllStIdDlc-
Now think we had better agree to
fight this battle Just as our fathers and
husbands have their two revolutions
enroll all that are loyal to the principle.
How much of an army should we have
had for the rebellion, if every man who
came to enroll himself had been asked
''Do you smoke, chew, drink, steal, lie,
swear? Are you lOw-bred, illiterate, or
licentious? If so you cannot fight for
freedOm.n Was it not Just this element
we swept into the army? And were not
they the better for suffering and dying
fora noble cause? Churches and reform
associations are just the places to draw
in the sinners, and inspire them with a
new and noble purpose. Alas for those
Pharisees that are forever thanking the
Lord that they are not like other men.
Jesus, the good and perfect one, ate and
talked with publicans and sinners, and
was ever kind and merciful to the erring
and unfortunate Magdalens of his times.
Let us, one and all, follow his example.

All MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL
Many men. many minds-many judges,
many judgments. In Illinois, the judges
in one Supreme Court held that the
maxim of Independence, ''au men are
ted eouaI,u does not extend to wOm-
en- and that by virtue thereof, or of any
thing else, they have no right of suf-
frage. In the same State, another Su-
preme Court decides that this maxim
does apply to vagrant children, so that a
statute providing for the rescue Of such
'1ittle Wanderers and the committal of
them to a reformatory school is uncon-
stitutional, and a 'tyrannical and op-
pressive" infringement upon the liber-
ties of the citizen. In effect, Therefore,
Juvenile vagrancy receives judicial sane

CAN WOMEN FIGHT.-Dr. Lord, who
since the opening of the year has been
giving historical lectures in Boston, had
for Il subject recently, 'Phillipa,n (the
mother of the famous Black Prince,
and in the course of his remarks, said
"The annals of the Middle Ages are
full of the noble deeds of women. When
Edward III. was engaged in his Scottish
war the Countess of Mardi defended
Dunbar with uncommon courage and
obstinacy, against Montague and an
English army. And, cOntempOraneous
with her, Jane, Countess of MOntfOrd,
shut herself up in the fortress of Hene-
/ burn, and defied the whole power of
! Charles of BlOise. Clad in complete
armOr she stood foremost in the breach,
1 sustained the most violent assaults, and
displayed a skill that would have done
honor to the most experienced generals.
And MaTZia, of the illustriOus family Of
the Maldina, sustained, hOnorably, a
siege against the Papal troops at Cresenai
ten times more numerous than her own.
Jane Hatchett repulsed, in person,
body of Burgundians when they be-
sieged the town of Beauvias. In the
chivalrOus ages women not only attacked
and defended Notifications, but even
commanded armies and obtained vic
tories. joan OF Arc simple ana ulleu-
ucated sheperdess, was the instrument
of that sudden revolution in the affairs
of France which terminated i'm the es-
tablishment of Charles VII. on the
throne. Agnes Soul aroused this king
to deeds of glory when sunk in enervat-
ing pleasure. Altrude, Countess of
Bertenora, advanced, in person, with an
army to the relief of AncOna. Bona
Lombardi, at the head of her brave
troops, liberated her husband from cap
tivity and imprisonment. Isabella of
Lorraine, when her husband was taken
prisoner, rallied an army for his rescue.
Margaret of Anjou was the life of the
Lancasterian party in the wars of the
Roses, and defeated, herself, the Duke of
York at Wakefield. The Countess Ma
tilda sustained sieges against Henry ",
the great FrancOnian Emperor.

Carlotta Patti is pronounced by the
European critics of late to be the great
est concert singer the world knows.
Lately, when she made her tour in
South America, her reception probably
surpassed anything ever know in the
history of vOcalists. This is all the more
noteworthy that Rio JaneirO is one Of
the most critical and wealthy cities of
the universe, and has had an Opportun-
ity of judging all the great regulations
of the present day. 1t may be truly
said that CarlOtta Patti had an entree
worthy of princess into the city. Fri
umphal arches were erected, under
which she was to pass. Flowers strewed
her path, and at her performance bOquets
were thrown her, glittering with pre-
cious stones. The critic of the leading
paper wrote: "When we hear Carlotta
Patti we look for the bird that produces
the sound. If angels sing so we shaH
be satisfied with Paradise" And so
they went on with this hyperbollc IAN
guage to express their admiration OF this
delightful singer.

Lucy Stone in a recent Woman sur

nroyision of a will Oh probate in Boston:
II bequeath to my wife, Elizabeth, the

and no longer" How would a Will

which was his before our marriage, so

GERS said, and told him there was large
force surrounding the house and he had
better surrender. He ordered my son
out and appeared to be drawing pistol

the man in here wishes to come out. The
officer told him to hand his arms to one
of them, believe to my son at the door,
and to come out. Booth said the man
had no arms they were all his, and they
would not be delivered up. Harold then
came out, and Booth refusing to surren-

ers of the president. When the forces
passed my house they went to Bowling
Green and got Jett, the man who brought
Booth to my house, and he told them
that he left Booth at my house. When
he camehere asked him why he brought
that man to my house and left him here
as wounded confederate soldier, and
had brought so much trouble upon me.
He said he wished to get clear of him
and left him at the first house he came
to after leaving Port Royal that he
told the officers, when they came to Bow
ling Green, that he had left him with
me as confederate soldier, and that l
was not apprised who he was. told him
to make that declaration to an officer in
my presence. He made it to Lieuten-
ant Dougherty, who was the officer in
command of the regular forces. Col.
Conger being detective, but in COM
mand, as | understand, of the expedi-
tion. These are the facts in the case -
those in regard to the burning of the
barn were learned of my sons, who were
present. The subject of the murder Of

church the day before Booth came to my
house, | condemned it publicly 10 un-
measured terms.
