PRoGREss.-A new phase of the wom-
ans rights question has been recently
raised in Massachusetts,, and one that
commends itself to our sense of justice.
A petition was presented to the Legisla-
ture Of that State, now in session, signed
by thirty thousand tax-paying women,
asking for the right to vote only at mu-
nlclpal elections. The legislation demand
cd provides that all female citizens Of
proper age, resident in any city or
to"h LOT one year OF more, who pay into
the treasury Of such city or town a tax on
property owned by them within its limits,
Of value not less than 81 900 shall have
the right to vote for town and citv off,
GERS, and to take a part in the manaos-
ment of town and city affairs on the sams
terms on which such rights are now en-
ioysd by men whe are taxpayers. Women
have, for several years, held responsible
positions in that State as inspectors Of re-
formstory schools, alms-houses, county
prisons, &C., and are already credited by
the highest officials Of the State with
performing their duties in the most eff
eient manner. The limited ballot asked
for will probably be granted.

True TO His Principles.

From the Cardiff Mail.
Princess Victoria, now Queen of Eng
land spent some of her youthful days in
Anglessey, where she seemed TO enjoy her
self very much. She occasionally wore
the sugar loaf hat and riding habit, and
went among the descendants of the old
Druids on Mona's Isle. This was before
she took fancy 10 the brown heath and
the tartan plaid and the pibroch of Cafe
douia In the neighborhood of the new
palace in M9ne, where she and her man
the Duchess of Kent. were STAYING, was
an old tailor named John Jones, who was
a local preacher with the Wesleyans.
One Saturday afternoon the Princess
Victoria had the misfortune, while riding
to tear her riding habit, and on her re
turn to the palace the local tailor was sent
for by the house steward. John Jones
went and asked for 'the lord cham. er
lain" bat was told there was no suca
tunctionary in the palace. He in conse-
quence, returned nome. On Sunday
morning another message came from the
palace requesting his imuledIate attend.

They make their VOWS by moonlight, deal

And then she pines alone for months
And wonders If she's Tilted.
But he comes gaily back, to find
She is OF maids the truost,
And loviier far than maidens are
With even eyes the bluest-
Not lovlier, sweet, than you to-day,
With sunshine OH your bower,
