ouRformer towns !, d Mrs. Rcbecca


OURformer townswoman, Mrs. Rebecca
Harding Davis, has been writing aseries
Of articles in the New York Independent
on converts. She thinks Mr.. Ncwde-
gates persistent bill for official inspection
OF all religious houses Of seclusion in
Great Britain isn't mere "hobby-riding,"
but founded on logical common sense,
and especially applicable tothis country.
"No illegal power" she says, SHOULD be
permitted, uncurbed, to immune human
beings behind prison bars" She points
to the discoveries OF the outrages OF luna
tic asylums, which compelled the exer-
else Of State authority, as proof OF this.
Human nature is about the same in con-
vents as elsewhere. "Now, what Mrs.
Jones or Miss Smith among us would be
allowed to rent domicile, persuade a
certain number Of women into it, lock
them up, feed, clothe, use them accord
ing 10 her own pleasure, Qnd hinder the
public from ali access to them q Yet Sis
ter Aloysia and Mother Baptista are only
Mrs. Smith and Miss Jones under an
alias and wearing black serge instead Of
muslin. 1t is useless to urge, too, that
the social condition, the civilization OF
the 10Th century, forbids the fear OF in-
humanity in these religious jails. The
superior Of Ladies Of the Visitation in
1875, given the same opportunity Of OK
ercising petty cruelty or mean ambition,
is no more to be trusted than the abbess
ofl0OO." And in support ofhcr position,
Mrs. Davis narrates many instances OF
tyranny and persecution Of which she
claims to have personal knowledge.

Mrs. JOYCE, after visiting her husband
in prison has gone on to Washington
with ex.Gev. Fletcher, and some letters
ofGcn. Babcock to her husband in her pos
session. These letters are supposed to be
bad for Babcock, and the object Of the
mission is to use them as arguments with
Gen. Grant, for securing pardon for
Joyce. 1t is too late, We fancy; the scan
dial is too big,and the people are too much
excited about it toallow such compro-
mise. Gov. Fletcher, it will be recalled,

six working days, or, counting the first
half of the day fixed for final adjournment
at noon, six and a half days for completing
the business to comply with the order adop-
ted by both houses that dissolution shall
take place on Friday the 22l inst. On ad,
,iournmentllast week the senate had disposed
of about seventy pieces of business, and the
House of about one hundred and fifteen,
leaving about Two hutdred aud sixty still TO
be disposed of, most of which are still in the
hands OF committees. Some of these mat
ters will, of course give rise to more or less
debate, so that it is hardly possible that
they can all be properly considered in the
brieftimc remaining The investigation OF

Dead II . Hundred Years.

The Philadelphia Lsdgsr Of Wednesday
says: "Mrs. Margaret Donaldson Boggs
died on Monday evening at the residence OF
Or. Stephen T. Beale, Germantown, aged
one hundred years and five months. Mrs.
Boggs celebrated her centennial anniversary
on the 10th of January last. The maiden
name Of Mrs. Boggs was Margaret Donald
son, and she was born on Queen street, near
Front, in this city, on the 10Th OF January,
1776. Her parents were William and Sarah
Donaldson. Her mother was the fourth
daughter of Samuel aud Rebecca Griscom,
of whose family of eight children, Eliza
beth who married successfully Mr.. Ross,
Mr.. Ashburne, and Mr.. Claypoole, was the
eighth, Samuel Giiscom was grandson OF
Andrew Griscom, or, as the nan e was for
merly written, Griscombe, of Yorkshire,
who came to Philadelphia in 1852, ana who
is known in history as the builder OF the
first brick house in the city. Samuel Girls
com, who was Friend, lived for many
years en- Arch street, between Third and
Fourth. He was ship builder and house
carpenter, and assisted in the erection OF In
dependence Hall. Mrs. Boggs' father,
William Donaldson, was also ship-car-
peuter, as well as a sea Captain, and his
Ship yard was at Front and Queen streets.
Mrs. Boggs was a cousin Of Andrew Jack
sons wife, Rachel Donaldson, and retained
a vivid recollection of the General in his
earlier days. There can be no question OF
the fact that the deceased had fully com
pleted a century. The record of her birth
is preserved in the family Bible, which is in
the possession of her niece, Mrs. Frederick
Turner, of this city. There is also in ex-
istence record of the birth of Mrs. Boggs
son, who, if he were now living would be
eigdty-one years of age. Her age was also
certified By members of the family now liv-
ing. who have heard it from persons born
during the same generation with the de-

that, that which should have been conduct
