The Question Re-opened.

The Methodist conference of New Jer-
sey are again in grief. Brother Buckley
and the majority who voted with him
hoped to settle the question of woman's
Preaching when they refused to hear
the Rev. Anna NJ. Oliver. But his at
tempt at coarse wit has not succeeded
Burning with zeal to save souls, another
woman appears as a dfsturber of the
ministerial peace. In this case the wife
feels the duty and claims the opportu-
nifty alike with her husband. Mrs
Henry Wheeler, the wife of a Methodist
minister, confronts the brethren of the
conference and fOrcibly argues that the
work of evangelizing the world does not
belong exclusively to any sect or sex.
She insists that she has a duty to per-
form in this regard, and maintains that
woman, no less than man, will be held
responsible for the manner in which her
gifts are employed. 1t would be diff
cult to pick flaw in this argument. If
Mrs. Wheeler or Anna NJ. Oliver have
the power to preach and do preach so as
to convert men and women, are they
not under as strong moral obligation
to do so as Mr. Moody?
Still the brethren did not see thus.
The Rev. w. H. Lavett, New York
Baptist pastor, in recent article, is re-
ported as also maintaining that when a
woman attempts to preach, she places
herself in a position of war with the di-
vine appointment. We have not seen
his paper, and therefore cannot speak of
his method of argument. Bnt the con-
clusiOn is very wide of the truth. Prob
ably st. Paul is made responsible for
opinions which have their source in the
writer's own prejudices and false convic-
tiOns. But the scales will fall from the
eyes of all such. The Methodist confer
ence will not need many more discus
sions to see the truth. The influence OF
Mrs. Wheeler's plea will be felt. prob
ably" says the Boston Post in comment
ing on this subject, miss Oliver would
not have established or asserted this
principle any more positively had she
been allowed by the courtesy of the
conference to give her views on st. Paul
and expOund the dOctrinal points of her
particular school of theology. The
smoothness of the meeting might have
been little ruffied by Mrs. Wheeler's
remarks, but the roof did not fall mol
the floor sink; so when the next confer.
ence meets the objections to hearing ac'
tual and wholesome truths from femi
nine lips may be fewer and fainter. "

tions on this side are darkened by the
shade of tall trees. The southern front
has a deep veranda, out upon which
open long windows encircled by beauti-
full ivy. This front, facing the city, is
by far the most attractive. A broad
driveway curves up to the entrance on
the north side, and then winds away
through the intricate park. Every WIS.,

National Woman Suffrage Convention

The Tenth Annual Convention of the
National Woman Suffrage Association
will be held in Masonic Hall, corner
Sixth Avenue and Twenty-third street,
New York, May "a, 1877.
The nation has entered upon it's Sec
Ond century of existence, leaving one
half its citizens political slaves. While
the form of our government declares
woman's demands to be righteous and
just, mans legislation still holds her
unenfranchised. AS in law is found the
security of rights, and as woman has
been denied the constructive rights of
the Declaration and Constitution, she
must seek recognition in specific law,
by an Amendment to the Constitution
of the United States.
The great effort of the National Wom-
an Suffrage Association this year will
be for Sixteenth Amendment, which
shall specifically declare wOman's right
to the ballot. The right of petition is
woman's only recognized method of in
fiuencing legislation; a million names
to the fOrty-fifth Congress would have
great moral influence upon Congress
and the nation. The United States al
ready has three classes of voters, the
black man, naturalized male citizens,
and amnestied rebels; each OF these has
right to the ballot under United States
authority. Though by decision of the
Supreme Court, in case of Virginia l..
Minor, of Missouri, all women were re-
manded to the States, yet as the ma
tional government had power to invest
with the ballot in the above instances,
it has like power to enfranchise woman.
Let us therefore meet and discuss the
best methods of attaining this great OBJ
ject. MATILDA JosLYN GAGE,
Chairman Executive Committee.

should be sent to Ellen G. Sargent, !, 49,

Funeral Of John D. Lee.

The funeral of John D. Lee at Pan
guitch was attended by large number
of people. A new coffin was obtained,
and the body dressed after the usual
manner for burial. Our informant says
the whole town turned out. Lee had
lived at Panguitch just previous to his
arrest, and was highly esteemed as a
neighbOr and a citizen. His disposition
was peaceful, and he was uniformly
kind and obliging.
Rachel appears to have mistaken the
wish of the family in ordering Marshal
Nelson to send the remains to Pan
guitch. l was the desire of the family
and was Lees desire to have the re-
mains buried at Harmony, where a
number of the family have been in
tered. At family council held on the
reception of the body, it was decided to
remove the remains to Harmony early
next winter.
None of Lees family got hint about
the removal of the prisoner. 1t was the
purpose of large number of his sons to
attend the execution, and not a few OF
the people at Panguitch and Long Val
ley think that Lee helped the United
States Marshal plan the escape to the
Meadows, fearing that his sons would
come to the execution and make a dis
turbance. Lee must have had some
fears of this kind.
The family at Panguitch did not be-
lieve that the old man would be exc.
cuted, knowing that he had made a con.
fession. They doubtless thought the
same would secure him pardon.
The family is silent with regard tt
the execution and other matters. Tn,
sons are considerably scattered, anC
most of them have families demandin.

likely dispersed to their different place:

CAN'T FORGET HER DEAD BOY.-I
suppose it is all right, but L must con-
fess to a lingering prejudice, weak and
narrow, doubtless, against all leaders in
the great Rebellion. When l see them
placed in offices of trust and honor by
the government they sought to destroy,
the soft south wind seems like great
sigh coming up from the prison Of
Richmond and AndersOnville, and the
burial trenches of hundreds of battle
fields. l am hard, know, but when l
meet a confederate hero and hear him
boast-and they all boast-of that long,
mad struggle against the Union, a
white young face seems to rise from a
lonely grave on the banks of the Missis-
sippi-the face of one of my blood, dear
as my very own. l see divine forgive
ness look from those blue eyes, but it is
not impaired to my heart. l can par
don the soldier whose shot laid low that
bright head, but not the general who
led, or the government that conscripted
that soldier. - Grace Greenwood, IN
