OPINIONS OF THE PRESS.

THE WoaAS's JoURSAL.-The friends of woman
suffrage, who wish to keep the issue clear from
entangling alliances with other reforms and the
endless host of individual whims and yagaries-
who would pursue it with the same singleness of
aim that marks the movement in England, and
the temperance and other special reforms in this
country, have established weekly paper, the
Womdn's Journal, published in Boston and Chi
cago, and edited by Mrs. Liyermore, Mrs. Lucy
Stone, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, Mr.. Vim. Lloyd
Garrison and Mr.. T. w. Higginson, assisted by
accomplished friends of the cause. The No
mans Journal is q fair and attractive paper in
appearance, while the variety and spirit of its
articles, and the dignity, self-respect, good
huInor, and earnestness of its tone, will show
how profoundly mistaken are those who suppose
that folly and extravaganza are necessarily char
acteristic of the discussion of the question. The
Journal is indispensable to those who would
truly understand the character of the movement
and measure its progress.-Harper's Weekly

A BILL was up yesterday in the Maine
Legislature, providing for the right of the
women of that State to vote in the coming
Presidential election. 1t is not probable
that the bill will pass, but strenuous
effort will be made to that end by the wo-
man suffragists, who would delight to call
Maine the bright particular ''star in the

Poetry.

Cupid Drives the Lasses.
Politics may rule the men,
And govern all the masses;
The editor may WELD his pen,
But Cupid drives the lasses.
Beauty fascinates the swells,
Who often acts as asses
Fashion decorates the bellies,
And Cupid drives the lasGes.
Pleasure gilds the rosy hour
As it serenely passes;
Nature paints the blushing Hover,
And Cupid drives the lasses
Witching smiles have had their day,
And kiss surpasses,
Given in a tender way,
As Cupid drives the lasses.
Thronged upon her glossy hair,
Soft as Summer grasses,
Cupid rides, and takes the cir
As he drives the leases.
Whip and bride in his hand
Wings like tinted glasses,
"Get along |" is his command,
Driving pretty lasses.
'Twixt the rosy lip, the bit
(Sweetly cherished passes;
See the rogue in triumph sit
As he drives the lasses.
Drive, oh gently, God Of love,
Maidens of all classes
Perched aslightly as dove,
While you drive the lasses.s
