Mr.. EDIToR:-The very careful report of the
lecture at Pine street church, last evening, to-
gether with previous editorial endorsement,
seems to justify notice of the lecture which
it could not otherwise claim.
As against the notion of woman suffrage
never having been interested in this subject,
we make no issue with the man who delivered
it, nor with his argument. 1t was clearly put,
though the smack of his lips savored of con-
ceit not so common nowadays, in one appeal
ing to the judgment of the public; but when,
going beyond the rim of his subject, he dis
cussed the family relations, and transcending
the privileges of the platform, touched upon
that of the pulpit, we beg to dissent from his
Interpretation of our nature and of canonical
lore on this question. 1t would take many
such persuasions to arouse anything like ND
tive for action in one who might be living for
herself alone, but we do owe something both
to the living and the dead; to the generations of
men and women who have preceded us in their
realization of the divine idea of marriage, and
we must transmit its holy and happy idea.
Laying great stress in his lecture upon physi-
cal instincts, there was no mention whatever of
spiritual instincts. quite as important and as
active IN normal condition, unless where he
referred to his personal appreciation of women
as ''almost angels" which soft impeachment
we altogether disclaim and return to himself
the juicy confection.
There is better tribunal of judgment. and
counsel than his, or we might do as st. Paul
did, appeal unto Caesar. There are men who
respect themselves and their sex, ami whom
we are altogether unwilling to consign to the
geological show of which he is exhibitor. He
outraged the dignity of Abraham as many n
other has, for there are others of his kind and
the cave of Mackpelah he has been often dis.
hopored-that its princely occupants, closely
welded in death as in life, should be summoned
to stand as the opponents of this mans feeling
on this subject, is too much. Let such as de
grade the notion of masculine sovereignty with
physical limitations, and fail to apprehend the
moral dignity of the law of marriage, and the
better intellectual and spiritual sentiment of
his race, keep silence" awhile Sin the church
es.' 1t would do them good, as it undoubtedly
has women. And to such let us say that when
s'every man is the head of the woman precisely
as Christi Is the head of the church." when
Husbands love their wives even as Christ
also loved the church, and gave himself for
it,, it will do for such as he to press the argu-
ment and quote St. Paul.
1T occurs to US that in this range of practical
discourses from the pulpit. and platform, on
this sub ject our side of the obligation has
been the oftener enforced.
Nor "PAGAN," BUT CHRISTIAN WOMAN.
