impediments which have held her

man recognizes her as his equal, it
is difficult to get him to regard her

the prophetic eve can see much
brighter outlook IN the future.
When woman is emancipated, ele-

equal to the occasion. 1t will give
to woman her long desired place

Great Messiah, and clothed in the
armor of affection, will go forth to
conquer the world with the sword
of the spirit. The shining hosts of
heaven will enlist under her banner
Of love, and Christ himself will lead
the way. The whole will world sur.

before her triumphant march the
powers of darkness will flee.
Prison houses will be transformed
into schools, and dram shops and

spell that enslaves them, and stand
erect in their manhood; and the
sisters of men look up
and smile among tears of repentance
and peace. Oppression's yoke will
be broken and the clanking chains
of t he captive be heard IN the land
no more forever. The scaffold,
The slave pen, and the whipping
post will be remembered only as
relics of an animal age. Navies

sword against nation, neither will

in grapple which will be broken
only by the decisive defeat of one or
the other.
