The postponing of marriage and the
broader education of women has
brought into existence a class o..
girls" that did not formerly exist,
namely, the class between eighteen and
thirty. They are bright, educated,
capable women who are awaiting mar.
riage, and instead of being given an
interest in life and provided with some
thing to do, they are launched into So
ciety with the idea that the proper
thing to do is to abandon themselves
to the pursuit of pleasure. One result
of this is that we have women after
marriage taking very unkindly to the
necessary slowness of domestic duties.
They live for thrills. sensations and
excitements. As these can not be OBJ
tanned at home, they resort to expedi-
ents which eventually prove fatal to
the real and noble idea of marriage.
The upper-class girl is becoming a
lamentably self indulging creature,
who spends the very prime of her life
in the incessant round of amusement.
The great leisure class of cultivated
women can not be held guiltless if il
evade individual responsibility and
squander the benefits of birth and ed.
ucation on its own amusement II st.

nently gO-ahead merchants of New
York, and the fact must be remem.
/ bered that as business slaye-dealing
was quite as legitimate then as is the
emigrant traffic of the present day.
Young John Cruger has left on record
a most edifylng account of voyage
which he made out of New York in
the years 169s-17OO, in the ship
Prophet Daniel, to Madagascar for
the purchase Of live freight, and the
sentiment Of the community in the
premises Is exhibited by the fact that
the slave-dealing Mr.. Cruger was
elected an Alderman from the Dock
Ward continuously from the year
l7l2 until the year 1913, and that
subsequently he served four consccu-
tive terms as Mayor In addition to
the negro slaves there were many
Indian slaves held in the colony.
For convenience in hiring, the law
was passed November 30, I'LL. that
all negro and Indian slaves that are
let out to hire within the city do
take up their standing In order to be
hired at the market house at the
Wall street Slip" Probably the
alarm bred of the so-called negro plot
Of l74l was most effective in check
ing the growth Of slavery in this city
Certainly the manner in which the
negroes charged with fomenting this
problematical conspiracy were dealt
with affords food for curious renec-
tiOn upon the social conditions of the
time. After trial that would have
been a farce had it not been a
tragedy, Clause was condemned to he
broke upon a wheel" Robin to be
hanged in chains alive, "and so on to
continue without any sustenance I'M
til he be dead" Tom to be "burned
with a slow fire until he be dead and
consumed to ashes, and so on. How
ever everything depends upon the
point in view. In that strong,
stomached time judicial cruelty to
animals met with universal approval,
and, as to slavery, the worshipful Sir
Edward Coke but a very few years
earlier had laid down the doctrine
that pagans properly could be held in
bondage by Christians, because the
former were bond slaves of Satan,
while the latter were servants of God.

upon his subsequent intercourse with
