LADY PHYSICIANS.

We are pleased 10 make special mem
tion Of Mr.. aud Mrs. DR.. Andrews,
physicians and surgeons, who are nicely
located at their new institute, No. 25l
First street, and have come 10 Portland
highly recommended by the medical
fraternity Of the eclectic school Mrs.
Andrews is the third lady physician
now in practice in the city, DIR. Murray
being the first and DR.. Burr the second.
Our own Mrs. Owens, who preceded
these ladies by year or two, is now at
Ann Arbor, finishing her education in
the higher branches of surgery and the
healing art. There is not a gentleman
physician in the city who has a larger
practice than Mrs. Murray, who, being
a regular Of the regulars, has none Of
the prejudice to conquer that disciples
Of more recent medical systems Of prac-
tice must encounter. The lady physi-
clans of Portland, as well as Of Salem,
Albany and the East, compare favora-
bly, with men in their chosen vocation,
fact Of which the NEW NORTHWEST
is justly proud

Twenty-Five years ago, reckless and
brutal young men, Of white skins, were
migrating from all parts Of the south
TO Kansas. Theiraim was to make that
slave state. Now, men, women and
children Of dark skins are migrating
rom the South to Kansas by the thous-
and, and their reason is that Kansas is
known TO them as State where
real freedom can be found Few Of
tihemi II any, it is probable, have any
intention OF affecting by their hegira
the condition of the State from which
they fly. Nevertheless, il is true that
this movement will tend most strongly
to produce in Louisiana and AIissis-
sippi more real freedom than has ever
yet existed.-N Y. Tribune.

We have always opposed divorce for
trivial causei, believing that marriage
should be entered into with a delibera-
tion that will insure its permanency.
The strongest argument We remember
to have met in favor Of easy divorce is
attributed to Peter the Great, aud is as
follows: "God established wedlock for
happiness, for mutual support, and for
consolation in the vicissitudes Of life,
and, as wretehed marriages do not sus-
tain Gods purposes in matrimony, it is
proper in such cases to grant divorce"

HONOR TO THE BRAVE DEAD.

One by ole the heroes who sprang TO
the assistance Of an imperilled nation in
the dark days Of the Rebellion pass
away, leaving their record for future
generations to read aud proudly emu
late. Among the latest Of these was
General John A. Dix, whose memorable
words, "If any man attempts to haul
down the American flag, shoot him on
the spot" has been embalmed in the
/ patriotic literature Of the nation. While
the then arrogant foe in the field i the
now arrogant foe in the American Con-
gress, threatening annihilation by starv-
alton 10 the army which embattled force
labored in vain to vauquish, patriotism
proves that il is not dead, in the demon
stratons Of grief and the profound re-
spect that follows a soldier of the Union
/ to his last resting-place. The obsequies
OF General Dix were conducted with
that solemnity and pomp which befits
the last rites 10 a departed hero. From
the time the funeral cortege left the
house Of the deceased until il reached
Trinity, where the solemn service Of the
Episcopal Church was rendered, the
roar Of minute guns from Castle Will
liam reverberated over the great city
and bay, carrying 10 all within sound
Of their resonant tones the intelligence
that the remains Of the scholar, diplo-
matist, statesman and soldier were on
their way to that final rest which the
heaviest thunders Of artillery are power
less to disturb. Let the nation give
honor 10 its brave dead. Whether these
are left in trenches where they fell gall
lautly fighting, or are conveyed TO costly
mausoleums amid the reverberation OF
minute guns aud the strains Of solemn
music, let their memories be revered.
while liberty unfolds over our broad Re-
public her starry ensign. Obedient to
the behest ofpatriotism and the prompt
ings Of tender memory, the surviving
comrades and friends Of the soldier dead
will in short time gather choicest gar
lands,
" And go "a fragrant wreath to lay
Upon the lowLy graves that still
Are sweet with ala the flowers OF May
Testifying by this action, so appropri-
ate and yet so simple, the appreciation
that true courage and self-sscrifice ever
inspire in generous hearts.
"An know the work those brave men did"
Let all testify to this knowledge by
Offering floral tribute to their memories
on Memorial Day.

The recent breaking out Of the yellow
fever on ship which, though affected
last season, had been thoroughly fumi-
gated and moreover subjected to the
frosts Of the entire winter in northern
port, is causing much alarm in the
south, lest the germs Of this dread
scourge have not been killed, as was
hoped, by the frost. In this case its re-
turn may be looked for with the first
approach to Summer heat.

By the laws of Kansas, women stand
on exact equality with men in regard to
property. II man dies intestate, leav-
ing a widow and children, the widow
takes half in her own right and the
children the other half; or, If the wife is
the owner and dies, the husband takes
one-half and hechildren the other half,
and neither can deprive the other Of
such share by will. In all respects re-
garding trading, suing and being sued,
there is not the slightest difference be-
tween the two.

The new Constitution Of California
provides that women shall not be de-

ruled it out. Another clause provides
that no corporation doing business in
the State shall employ Chinese labor,
aud the Legislature is required to enact
such laws as will enforce il.
