Innocent is yet without guilt. What they have
thus made evil and bad in the belief that not even
the child can attain heaven, can carry heaven IN
his heart without first going, to speak mildly,
through guilt-this they would have made good
again by God, and this they call converting the
child.' Another fundamental principle with
Froebel is that suppressed or prevented good
quality lies originally at the bottom of every short
coming man. Thus, for instance, there is at pres
ent, among the children, little simplicity little
true gentleness and mutual forbearance but on
the other hand, much egotism, unfriendness,
rudeness. This is clearly due not only to the fail
ure of arousing at an early period, and of subse-
quently cqltivating in the child, feeling of COM
mon sympathy, but also to early humiliation of
this feeling between parents and children.
Surely the parents who do not study their chds
nature have neglected their first and highest duty.
"Man, therefore, sins more against man, against
the children, than he does against Cod" And
again, "lt is not possible to gain from anything

fefs implied military service" wrote DR.. Johnson,
in 1776, lit is easily discerned why females could
not inherit them, but the reason is at an end. AS
manners make laws, manners likewise repeal
Them The same reasoning applies now to voting
Besides the objection proves too much. 1t APP
pears by the published record of United States
military statistics that out of men examined for
military duty during the rebellion, more than a
quarter were found unfit; but that this varied with
different professions. OF journalists 740 in every
1000 were disqualified, of preachers 974 of ply
sicians $40, of lawyers 544. The majority of all
these classes are as useless for warke purposes as
women far more useless than the fighting women
of Dahoney. Are these classes therefore to be
disfranchlsed, like women? On the other hand, of
all unskiled aborers only 348 in 1000 are disqua-
ifed of tanners PIG, Of iron-workers 1879. Is
the voting power to be taken away from lawyers
and journalists, and to be concentrated on iron
workers and tanners? We should do that to be
consistent.
In the Prussian army, the most powerful in the
world, General Mcclellan tells us that all men are
enrolled, and those unfit for feld-seryice are en-
ployed as military tailors or nurses Once apply
this principle to women and you may draft them
for military duty as much as you please
The amount of it all is, that woman must be en-
franchised. 1t is mere question of time. She
must be a slave or an equal; there is no middle
ground. Admit, in the slightest degree, her right
to property or education, and she must have the
ballot to protect the one and use the other. And
there are no objections to this, except such as
would equally hold against the whole theory of re-
publican government.

Short Answers to Common Objections
Against Woman's Suffrage.
BY THOMAS WENTWORTH HIGGINsoN.

10. II should not like to hear my wife speak
in town meeng' Nor would she like to hear
you unless you said something better worth say
ing than most of the talk against woman suffrage.
But you often willing to pay other mems wives
to sing in public, and if a woman may properly
uplft her voice to sing nonsense why not to speak
sense?
II. "It will turn women into men," Happily
you cannot do that. 1t is because women, after
all, are different from men that they deny the
right of men to represent them make laws for
them, judge them in court, and spend their tax
money. If they are the same with men, they have
the same rights; if they are distinct from men,
they need the ballot to help make laws for them
selves. Take which view you please, it comes to
the same thing
12 'Women are too busy to vote" Why not
say, ''Men are too busy to vote?" Men are apt to
claim that their own days work is harder than that
of their wives.
10. 'Women do not know enough to vote"
That is always the excuse for excluding dis
franchised class. Bancroft says that the original
charter of Delaware put the government into the
hands of royal council, on the ground that ''pol-
itics lie beyond the profession of merchants" So
the agents who came out with Sir Edward Andres
to take away the liberties of the New England
colonies wrote back, in great contempt: sit is
pleasant to behold poor cobblers and pitiful
mechanics, who have neither house nor land, strut
ting and making no mean figure at their elections"
Now, the merchants and mechanics have the ballot
and it is only women against whom the same old
objection is brought up
IA. ''Women do not want to vote" How can
you tell, till you give them the opportunity? We
gave the ballot to the freedmen, because we knew
they needed it, whether they knew it or not The
more intelligent among them knew it, at any rate;
and so the more intelligent women-the leading
authoresses and philanthropists, for instance
know and say that they need the right of suffrage,
whatever the thoughtless and frivolous may say
15 lit will lead to a dangerous intimacy be-
tween the sexes" In an oriental country ply
sician can only prescribe for woman by feeling
the pulse in an arm thrust from behind curtain.
But as no political intimacy would exceed that
which already exists or may exist in this country
between the physician and his patients, the clergy
man and his parishioners, the school superintend-
ent and his teachers the merchant and his book
keepers, the mill owner and his operatives-the
objection is idle If you honestly prefer Turkish
institutions, go and live where they prevail but if
the American system is the best, let it be made
consistent with itself.
49, ''Women connot fight, so they should not
vote" Formerly women were refused permission

FUTURE PRICES OF WHEAT.

farm, StOck and Home.
We have had several intmations from
correspondents that much uneasness ex.
lists In the minds of farmers regarding
the prices they will probably obtain for
the wheat now growing. For the present
we can only say that it is altogether too
early to entertain either hopes or fears
regarding that matter. The great bulk
of the worlds wheat IS now in It's infancy
and We all know that the infantile period
IS the critical one in all life. TIL ere is
the critical one in al life. There IS moth
ing to indicate that the average yield of
wheat per acre will be, the world over,
phenomenally large, nor is there any
evidence that the acreage will be above
the average. If wheat prices are to be
low it will be of course, because of large
yields yields, and low prices so produced
are calamities. If our Northwestern
farmers get % bushels to the acre, and
have to sell for from so to 60 cents a
bushel, it will be much better for them as
a class and for the country at large. than
for portion of them to get 10 bushels to
the acre of dollar wheat and the rest to
get none at all. If we are vouchsafed
favoring suns, timely rains. freedom from
devouring insects and devastating hail,
and all other conditions favorable, we
| need not tear the rest; at all events it is
unwise to borrow trouble about the
future. Sufficient unto the day is the
evil thereof"
