diction thereof, are citizens of the United
States and of the State wherein. they
reside" If this does not include women,
whom does it include?
No, there can be no discussion as TO
the citizenship of our mothers, our
wives and our daughters. They are rs
much citizens of the republic aud OF the
commonwealth as the mightiest man
among us all; and Judge Selden's au-
thorities are very cogent, If not entirely
conclusive, as to the 'priviIeges and
immunitiesn which citizenship en-
braces. And yet, whatever the lexieog-
raphers and the courts have said, it is
evident that citizenship, in the eyes of
the Lawmakers, has not been held nee
essarily to include the right of suffrage.
And here we reach the vital point. May
suffrage be conferred and may it be re-
stricted by the separate States Judge
Hunt answers, yes And it is certainly
the principle upon which the States
have proceeded, and are still proceeding.
The constitution Of the United States,
in its amended form, specifically declares
that the right of citizens shall not be
denied or abridged in any State, on ac-
count Of certain human conditions, one
of which conditions is not that Of being
woman; and it also afiixes a penalty
for the denial of the right to vote to
male Inhabitants; but does it anywhere
declare that citizenship and suffrage are
Synonymous?
Without, however, attempting to de-
eide the veXed issue upon which the
learned doctors are so thoroughly disa-
greed, we have no hesitation in recon-
mending the work before us as an elab-
orate presentation of the legal points to
which we have alluded. We believe it
will hereafter be quoted as high author
ity, and will be an arsenal from whence
the champions of Woman Suffrage will
draw some of their most formidable
weapons in tie battle before them. We
cannot close tlis article without saying
that, although not entirely convinced
of the tenableness of the position taken
by Miss Anthony in asserting her right
to vote under our present laws, we are
in full accord with the general move
ment in which she is engaged, and in
which she has exhibited so much cour-
age and independence-has done so much
TO entitle her to the thanks of her Amer
lean sisters in whose behalf she has
fought, and is still fighting, such a no.
bic battle. Woman Suffrage is only
question of time. 1t is coming for the
hepuOllci bringing blessings IN Its
train, so surely as the sun to-day il
lumines the earth. If the law is against
her it will be amended. If prejudices
encompass her they will vanish. If she
is the victim OF injustice she will rise
superior to its thraldom. Reason,
equity and expedience are on her side;
aud, in the long run, they will assert
their power.

Don't, Charley"

"Don't, Charley" came to my ears in

seated in railway car, last summer. I

voice, had it not been very near me. /
looked to see who it was that had
spoken, and saw q sweet, beautiful
woman upon the seat in front of me. A
half-sad look rested upon the young face
that was all aglow with love and tender
ness. young man was seated by her
side, whose face wore a restless, dissi-
pated look, and i'm moment compre-
hended it all. His face was flushed
slightly, and l knew why it was thus.
He was talking very fast to some one in
advance of him, and once heard low
oath. "DOn't Charley,n she said again,
in the same sweet voice. But Charley
did not seem to heed the words, but went
on in a half-wild way to the man. Sew
eral more oaths came from his lips; but
the woman remained silent, yet looking
so pleadingly at the erring one that /
thought, if he had been half human, he
would have needed the mild, loving re-
proof that was so visibla in her tear
dimmed eyes.
a friend by my side whispered in my
ear, "They have been married just one
year"
''He is a BRUTE" only said in reply
At that moment saw the young hus-
band wink slyly to the man, and then
they both arose and went into the bag

the husbands coat pocket.

wife had pleaded before lie got beyond
her reach; but he tore himself from her
light grasp, and rushed along. Hereyes
filIed with tears, and low moan came
from her pale lips, and then she bowed
her head and wept silently.
He came back in few moments. his
face flushed still more, and his voice
key or two louder than before. He
brushed rudely past his wife, evidently
to get near the car window.
"Let me alone, Mag" he said as she
laid her white hand upon his arm.
"Women are always in the way.u he
said, again turning to the man in front
of him.
The wife turned away, and I did not
hear her sweet, reproving voice again
How pitied that young, loving wife,
and how often l wonder if her sensitive
heart must soften and bleed for many
long years? / think not, for her tender,

Miss Mary f. Woodman, formerly of
East Concord, about 4 year since went
to Liverpool with an uncle who is q sea
captain, and from thence she sailed,
without friends or acquaintance, to
Oporto, Portugal, where she opened a
select school and gave instruction in
English, French, and music. Her
school is now very successful, and is
patronized by some of the first families
in Oporto. Her success shows what a
brave young girl can do when she goes
to work in earnest.

"Old Times" /"

Ihere.s beautiful song on the slumb'rous air,
That drifts through the valley of dreams;
II came from a cline where the roses were
AND hopeful Eeart and bright brown hair
That waved in the morning beams.
Soft eyes of azure and eyes of brown, -
And Snow-white foreheads are there:
A gllmmering cross and a glittering crown.
n thorny bed and a couch of down,
Lost hopes and leaflets of prayers
A breath offspring in the breezy woods
Sweet waes from the Cuiverfns pines
Blue violets' eyes beneath green hoods
A Duble of brooklets, a scent of buds
Bird-warbles and clambring vines
A rosy wreath and a dimpled hand
ring end a slighted vow
Three golden links of broken band.
A Tiny track on the Snow-Hnite sand
A tear and a sinleSS brow
There's a tincture of GRIFFIN the beautiful song
That sobs on the slumbrous air,
And loneliness felt in the festive thronp
Sinks down on the soul as it trembles along
From CLINE where the roses were
We heard It first at the dawn of day
And il mingled with matin chimes
But years have distanced the beautiful Law
And its melody floweth from far away
And We call 1t, "Old Times" -a

Stopped by Signal.

What station is this, Wilson p cried
an old gentleman, looking out of the win
dow
His servant, demure-looking man in
black, touched his hat and replied, II

sir; Sloughton station, sir.

tily. Guard, why isn't there board to

on.
At the very next station they came to,

window again. Hi, Wilson"
Wilson jumped out of his carriage, and
came to his master, and touched his hat
once more.

AT the next station the same scene

Why?

Why is it that friends we love,
On Meeting pinions fly?
And hopes we cherish in our youth,
Wither so soon and die?
Why is it that each joy of life
Is but a passing breath
An evanescent foam that breaks
Upon the sea of death?
Why is it that the lovely rose, s
That blooms in fragrance sweet,
Is scattered by the careless wind
And crushed beneath our feet i
It's perfumes, which we first inhaled
From midst the crimson leaves
Has disappeared; and on its stalk,
His web the spider weaves?
Why melts tne winters driven snow,
Before sweet Springs soft sun?
Why are She dew-drops drawn away,
When morn has just begun?
Why bursts the bubbles which so bright,
sail through vapory air P
why do the sweet flowers die,
Though fed with tenderest care?
Why s 1t thus? o, blooming rose,
And all life'S magic spell!
And dew-drop bright, and bubble frail,
The reason, canSt thou tell?
Know then, that all that earth bedecks
Or on its breast doth lie,
was born for Time-and at His beck,
Must fade away and die.

Sabbath School Celebration.

This was the fourth celebration, and
was attended by very large and deep
ly interested audience. The meeting
was called to order by the President
Rev. j. K. Gibson, and the exercises
were introduced by the congregation
singing. "All hail the power of Jesus
name," and by prayer offered by Rev.
Mr.. Brown, of Lancaster, Ohio. "The
Scholars Greeting Song" was sung by
the M. E. S. s., of Jackson, and was fol-
lowed by the President, who formally
opened the meeting, in neat and ap-
propriate little speech.
After the Pleasant Grove S. s. had
sung, the President introduced as the
first Speaker, Moses J. Morgan, Superin-
tendent of the Jackson Schools, who de.
livered an able address upon "A more
thorough and liberal study of the Bible" !"
After Mr.. Morgan's address, pretty
song was we'll rendered by the Madison

Wilson, when we get to Pugborough2'
mo, sir, says Wilson, scrambling into
his seat once more.
Troublesome old chap that" said the
guard, as he swung himsilf into his van,
II mustn't forget him at Pugborough.
There's no other passenger for there"
Now, ePugborough was one of those
mysterious places that are marked with
a cross or dagger in Bradshaw, and if you
succeed in unearthing a corresponding
dagger in some obscure corner of the
page, you will find Stops at Pugborough
to take up and set down first class Lon
don passengers only.
Whether it was that the guard, in his
excess of anxiety to remember, had blum
ted his faculties, or that some spiteful
Puck had given his wits bewildering
shake, know not, but somehow it hap
pened that the guard forgot to warn the
engine-driver, and when the man looked
up from his parcels he found, to his dis
may, that the train was flashing along
some half mile past the little Pugborough
station.
To signal the driver and put on the
brake was the work of an instant The
train was brought to a standstill, and
then slowly backed to the station amidst
the fierce denunciatious of the through
passengers.
The guard was much out of temper,
angry with himself for his forgetfulnes,
angry with the old gentleman for having
given him so much trouble.
Now, them he shouted to the man
servant. Sharp Look after your mas
ter's traps. Here you are, sir" he cried,
opening the first-class carriage. Here's
Pugborough. Now, sir, if you please"
The old gentleman was asleep and
couldn't be reused to a sense of the situ-
alton for some time. He growled and
grumbled. At last fully reused, he stared
at the guard with lacklustre eyes.
"Pugborough? Is it Pugborough2
Thank you, guard, remember. Where's
Wilson? Wilson, Wilson, where's my
box?'
-t."Never mind your box, sir-I'll see to
the luggage. Jump out quick please"
Jump OUT cried the old gentleman
Jump out! Why should l jump out?
Who said any thing about getting out?"

the very verge of desperation; Haven t
you been bothering about Pugborough

"At your own request, guard" said
the old gentleman calmly, II intrusted
you with the duty of warning me of my
arrival at Pugborough. should have
preferred to leave the task to my own
servant. Hi here's the box. Thank
you, Wilson" said the old gentleman,
taking from his servants hands a small
pink box.
THE fact is" said the old gentleman.
calmly opening the box and looking be-
nignly at the excited guard, that my
daughter gave me the most particular in
functions. Mind, papa she said, be
sure you take pill at Pugborough.
The old gentleman could never under
stand why the carriage door was dashed
to with such violence, the whistle sound

whirled into his carriage without being
permitted to take charge once more Of
