What Women are Doing.

The graduating class of the University
of Michigan, at Ann ArbOr, contained
seventy-four members, six of whom
were women. The degree of Pharma-
ceutical Chemist was conferred upon one
young woman, and that of Doctor of
Medicine upon one more. Commence
ment dinner followed close upon the
graduating exercises. About $50 per-
sons, consisting of the officers, alumni,
and guests of the University, were pres
ent. The lady members of the graduat-
ing class attended, and for the first time
the speakers addressed their hearers as
'ladies and gentlemen" and spoke to
the alumn;e and alumni of the Univer-
sity. There were ladies in the classes
of 1872 and 1873, but they were too few
in number to go through the ordeal of
dining among hundreds of the sterner
sex. The Presidents reception in the
evening closed the exercises of the day.
The graduates OF Syracuse IN. "
University this year number seven
three ladies and four gentlemen. Syra-
cuse University is one of the institutions
that practically believe in the co-educa-
tion of the sexes, and she has thrown
open her doors for the admission of
woman, claiming her right to receive at
the hands of the University the same
education as that offered to men. That
the ladies appreciate this is evidenced
by the alacrity with which they have
hastened to the University halls.
Mrs. Gilman, of the Chelsea Sub
Committee, performed the ceremony of
delivering the diplomas to the ShurtIeh
Grammar School graduates, last Tues
day. Mrs. Gilman was the first princi-
pal of that school for several years, and
her interest in education is undated.
Under the direction and leadership of
that lady and Miss HOyt, the present
principal, the school is believed to be
second to none in the State. We are
not able to State how many hundred
dollars less in the way of salary Miss
Hoyt annually receives than the male
principals with whom she is associated
in teaching, but they are considerable.
And yet she is their equal in position,
amount of work performed, responsible
ity and qualification. But the accident
of her being q woman defrauds her of
her rightful compensation WOmdH's

The Coming Woman.

Woman seems to be passing 4 transi-
| ton period, and the question in the
heart of every man and i'm the hearts oil
some of the women, too, is, what is she
coming to? But this question is asked
by different persons with different feel
/ ings. With some it is asked with hope
and Joy; with others, in fear and alarm;
with some, in doubt and unbelief; with
others, in faith and confidence The
world moves forward with vast strides,
and carries with it not only art, science,
| literature, government and society, but
even the very construction of the hu-
man mind seems to be changed at times.
A great Overruling power seems to be
bringing all the human family slowly
and surely up to one common level. 1t
is very plain that women are not to be
slaves and drudg,s as among uncivil-
lied nations. Neither are they de-
signed to be shut up in the house and
veIled from the sight of the world as
things not to be trusted, but guarded sa-
credly and kept to minister to mans
pleasure and passions. The periods
when they were held i'm such positions
have passed. Women who yesterday
were guarded and shielded for fear the
winds of heaven would blow upon them,
to-day face, without fear, the tumult of
the rabble, speak eloquently in public,
and pray fervently in the presence of
their scOrnful enemy. What has caused
this sudden change, and are the women
less womanly since? Ask their hus-
bands. No one will detect a waning
femininity and a growing masculinity
in a woman so quick as husband. Or
are they less gentle and loving? Ask
their sweethearts. Or are they less
tender and kind ? Ask their children.
No, these women, while they have
grown in power, have not lost one
womanly feeling or instinct. The COM
ing woman, then, will be no less a
woman and no more a man. She will
be no less loving and no more bitter; no
less lovely and no more hateful. The
coming woman will be less trifiing,
more earnest, less oppressed, down
trodden and abused, more respected by
the right and feared by the wrong, less
circumseribed in her work and her du-
ties, and more powerful to accomplish
all the good that her heart prompts her
to attempt. The coming woman will
be free, under God, to exercise all the
power with which she is so bountifully
and so beautifully clothed. This is the
coming woman.-LedreR'OOrt Daily

circular, which cOmmends itself to all
those who desire the success of the
greatest movement of the age; and it is

lea, the battle Is upon us in Michigan.
The importance of canvassing the State
thoroughly cannot be over-estimated.
Judge Brown confessed before the "Na-
tional Social Science Association" that
more than half of the newspapers of
this State are in favor of the ballot for
women, and that he feared it would
carry, though he deprecated the result.
Nineteen Senators voted for suffrage for
women i'm the Territories. Congress
will remit the sentence of Miss An
thony, and thus practically condemn
the judgment. Michigan is alive. At
the Lansing Convention $1,000 was sub
scribed. 1850 90 and work until cleo
tion, "said one woman; "twenty dollars"
said another; "here's my watch, worth
$780," said third. Now let us do our
part. Success in Michigan, and the
Union is ours. Only men can vote, and
they must be enlightened on the princi-
Piles and equities of our claims. Speak
ers, documents, sympathy and materi-
ais are needed. Shall they have them
We have a tract ready 10 print, "The
National Justice, Civil Equity and Con-
stitutional Right of Women to the Bal
lot" which should go into the hands of
every legal voter in the L. :. We have
speakers who will work for their ex-
penses, and all the conditions OF success
ready for us.
The appeal is to every non-voting,
taX-paying, enslaved woman, and every
true man in the whole world. Are you
willing to behold this contest without
an effort to aid in the achievement Of
the greatest moral triumph of all the
ages? The necessity is pressing, and
we appeal especially to our friends who
are blessed with means. Who will sup
port one lecturer for one month, or dur

the rich and the mite of the widow will
be acceptable.

The Opposition Argument.

The press Of Michigan by a very large
majority favors Woman Suffrage, but
among those papers which assail 1t is
the Grand Rapids Eagle, and its method
of attack is in this wise:
but we are to have more imBorted
orators on this occasion than ever be-
lore, and there must be lively canvass.
Michigan is the field of battle for Wom-
an Suffragists of the nation this wear.
Election campaigns mean work, aud
the most noisy of the Reform parties
are not such stolid blockheads as to be
ignorant of the fact that they mean
money also, and all the arts 11ert0ilti7lC
to political cdIlrdsSing, and llrose{yting,
and eren lcirc-puLliRg. The women, II
they are to enter the political lists, must
be at once put into regular training
They must not shrink from a little po-
litical abuse of their favorite candidates,
or of themselves as candidates; indeed,
the growing fashion is for the most
noisy reformers to assail the character
of public officer and candidate for pub
lie Office with vehemence Just in pro-
portion to the victims innocence, hon
esty, and integrity. All alike must
catch it, for such character is public
property and political game No con-
sideratiOns of decency or of honorable
discrimination are to be allowed to
stand in the way. With rigid impair
tiality the charges must be Tained thick
and fast upon the just and unjust of the
lawfully corrupt and dominant party.
On second thought, the Missouri 10ODieTl
had better send up The 6ri6e1y-we mean
the election funds. Our Michigan women
should be educated as much as possible
for the new work to which the ballot
will introduce them. Let the canvass
be as lively as the tight times will ad-
nit"
To this the Grand Rapids Erening
Post appropriately replies:
"Of course he intimates that election
campaigns mean not only work, but
bribery. That may be Mr.. Baxter's
way of doing political work, but it isn't
the way Woman Suffragists propose to
carry on their campaign. If Mr.. Bax-
ter wishes merely to intimate that dol
lars and cents are all that can bring the
Eagle or himself to the support of this
question, he may as well be told at once
that he can't have any of the So, GOO that
the Woman Suffragists of Missouri are
endeavoring to raise to help their friends
here to purchase tracts and employ
speakers. The Woman SulIragists of
this State haven't a dollar with which
to buy up either editors, newspapers or
voters, so if the Eagle cannot support
| this question on its merits, it will have
to oppose it,"
The kind of attack of the Grand Rap
/ ids Eagle may be 4 safety-valve by way
of letting of large stock Of i'll feeling
but the argument fails. The cause can
never be battered down by legion of
/ assaults of that character.

A STATUE TO JOHN BUNYAN.-What
strange revolutions of opinion time
sometimes brings round! Two hund-
red years ago there arose in England
one of the truest men of genius on all
the long roll of her famous sons. Glori-
Gus fancies filled his soul, and his pen
dropped beauties as il flew along the page.
But 1t was his unhappy lot TO be in ad-
vance of his times. They were times of
levity and frivolity. Men could not un-
derstand this dreamer, and he was cast
In the common prison on Bedford
Bridge, there to tag laces for twelve
weary years. But 10! the other day a
brilliant company assemblies in this
same town of Bedford to inaugurate a
noble monument, erected by public sub
scription, to the memory Of this
same John Bunyan. Peers, dignitaries
of the church, and municipal magnates
are there, vying with each other in
speaking his praise, and, amid general
plaudits, the statue of the once despised
! tinker of ElstOw is unveiled to public
view. The seventeenth century i'm
prisons him-the nineteenth raises a
monument to him in the town of his
| imprisonment. Two hundred years ago
no treatment was too severe-no pun
ishment too ignominious for the author
of the "Pilgrim's Progress.n To-day no
/ language is too eulOgistic to celebrate
/ his praise. The men who were then
honored are now either forgotten or de-
/ spised; and John Bunyan, who stead
| fastly adhered to principle, and served
/ his God according to his conscience at
all costs, Is 'in everlasting remem-
brance." We hope the men of TODAY
will learn the lesson of the case. 1t is q
most instructive one.-Belfdst Witness

A FAN-SHAPED CITY.-Amderstam
is q very strange city, and unlike any
other in Europe. 1t is in the shape of a
lady's fan when open. Five canals en-
circle the city in parallel curves, and
one passes around the outside. The
streets cross the canals 10y draw-bridges.
There are crossing these canals six humid
red bridges, and the city is divided into
ninety-five islands by cross canals.
Houses front OIL these canals, and often
have a wide quay, but sometimes the
houses rise from the waters edge. These
canals are filled with ships and small
boats, aud they can pass through the
city and unload at any part.
