MACON. GEORGIA. SUNDAY MORNING. SEPTEMBER *2t>, 1869. No. 2880. Anna Among the Mormons Visit of Mum Anna Dickinson to Silt Lake City —Her Impressions of Polygamy — Naughty Men and Slavish Women—She it Athamed of Her. Sex and Wanlt to Die- Women Mutt Ride A it ride Hereafter. From tl* San Franeiteo Chronicle, Sept, 7.] The audience that attended Misa Dickinson’s lecture at tho Metropolitan Theatre, on Sunday erenisg, waa in marked contrast to that of the evening before at PlaU’a Hall. With the exeep. tion of tho upper gallery, the house was crowd ed with an intelligent and appreciative audience, whom, aa Misa Dickinson afterwards said, “it was a pleasure to lecture to.” At 8:15 o’clock, accompanied by her brother, the Rev. J. Dickinson, the lectnrer mado her appdtfnnce and commenced ns follows : “Sea Rome and die,” is an old and well-known pro verb of the day. Live to work and work ear nestly. And I know full well that tlio matter of labor is not commended in this world as it ought to be, particularly where ono tries to reform it. Take the world easily and let it move on its.des tined course. Think you that God will do all the work and let ns lay idle hero below ? Oat here, on these California plains, are oases and patches of vegetation, manzanitn wood and bar ren, profitless herbage. Thero aro places, np and down all tho Pacific coast, where God has made beautiful gardens anc^ perfect paradises without the hand of man being used at all in them. But for that reason man most not be idle and wait. We mnst all work, more or less, each in his placo. “Stand still and see the sal vation of God," may do very well for those who have worked, who have lived with profit. ’ But “stand by and see tho salvation of God,” is blasphemy for tho man who lets his hands hang idle at his sides and docs nothing. And why, my friends hero to-night, should wo thihk we must not work to help mankind and our fellow creatures gonorally? As I trod tho streets of this new Sodom, the thoroughfares of this City of the Plains, this opais in a desert, and as I •' i . '>f tl»- men nn.l women of the " ‘..IV. Ill" brutality n:i<l dii..v-i mi nt of their natures that was stamped on them, and oh I saw little children growing up amid all the wickedness of this great city, I stood still and cried out, with my heart if not with my lips, ”0h, God! inspire ns nil, that we may work for the reform and good of our fellow creatures and the amelioration of such things as these!” SODOM. It was at the close of a lovely day in June— one of those grand evenings on the Plains—that I saw them stretching their golden expanse away aa far os the eye could roach, and saw that sapphire sea reflecting the sapphire sky above, and, away off from the city, those grand moun tains with tho ever-gleaming, brilliant snow shining above them all; while, amid all this glowing scene lay that plague spot, Salt Lake City, a foul blot on naturo'H face, a*whitened sepulchre without; and within, what ? A beau tiful town, indeed, it is, with its broad, oool, clean streets; with its little streams of water in ML their mountain freshness and icy coldness, so pure and dear that, paradoxical as it may seem to you, one can stoop down i>nd get a most refreshing drink of tho purest water from tho K Uer itself. With its nicturcsqno scenery, its autifnl buildings, its little adobo huts and all, it is a beautiful city in tho desert, a lovely and pleasant spot to come and feast one's eyes with after a journey across tho arid waates. “By their fruits ye shall know them,” said tbo Mas ter of old, and by its fruits ye shall know Mor- moniam, and whether what you seo at Salt Lake City is any better or any worse than what is to bo seen any day in San Francisco or Now York. True, no gambling, no riots, but order and quiet day and night There are no churches save one, and what a one is that Tho children yon seo playing in tho streets aro dobased, wretched, unhealthy looking, bearing in their counte nances the impress of tho most brutal passions of men. • X MORMON FAMILY—ME, AND TIIE MSS. SMITHS. I called at a house there and sat down in tho S trior, and in came a man and woman. “Miss ickinson, my wife Mrs. Smith," and in enmo another, “my wife Mrs. Smith”—(laughter)— and so on through a whole lot of them, all “my wifo Mrs. Smithand not one of these women came in as tho happy wife or mother, or as the mistress of that home, but all alunk in with a debased, servile Sir, looking like tolerated slaves rather than anything else. Ono of them told me that she had six children, another that aho had twelve, and another that she had fiftoen— (Isughter)—and half of all them were dead, and I looked at the other half, and when I saw tho wretched unhealthy creatures, I cried, “My God, the hand of death is on them too. Brigham's theatre. I went to the theatre. I went, oxpecting to bo disgustod, but I was more than that. There were women all around me, and I would seo ono man here and another thero, and each bending over ton or fifteen women, and I was told that they were his wives; and as I looked nronnd and aaw theso women and their degradation, such a sense and feeling of sliamo and despair came over mo that I cried “ O God, let mo dio whrro I stand!” and then tho second thought came, and I said, “Oh no, lot me not die, lint give mo strength to withstand and battle against this.” ▼ NAUGHTY GENTILE VISITORS. I carno ont to Salt Lake City with the best men in the oonntry—men whom’ tho country de lights to honor and reverence—and, ns wo all knew wo were coming to Salt Lake City, wo naturally talked a great deal about it, nnd’what do yon think was tho tenor of theso men’s con versation? Why, after I had listened for some time, I thonght I should pray for deafness or cotton to put in my cars. They thonght Mor- monism a fine institution; it mnst bo a jolly place where a man can have a dozen or two of wives and yet bo respectable. It must bo jolly to live in a place where divorces can bo had for five dollars, and where, if yon get tired of your wife, you can tack on a pretty little Mormon and no ono can say n word to yoii. Nice conversa tion for respectablo men, and all of them mar ried but two, and they were tho best behaved of thelot. “Oh, it was only a joke.” IVell, sup pose H was a joke. Suppose a lot of respect able married women were to talk in the cars and say, “Oh! it’s a fino institution, get divorced any timo yon want to for $5. 'When yon get tired of your husband yon get rid of him, shove him to ono side and get the best looking young Mormon yon find.” Now, what would people think who heard them speaking that way, even if “it was all a joke ?” Why, they would think them women who were lost to all sense of dig nity and honor. EASTERN FPEECHM VEERS. When 1 got to Salt Lake Oity they were sere nading. It wasn’t mo they were doing it to— (laughter)—but they were* serenading some of the big-wigs that had come along; and then those “respectable” men got out and made speeches. Such speeches! They didn’t know I was listening to them, but we women hear a great deal more, and are sharp enough to be awake a great deal oftener, when anything going on, than we get credit for. I was at 3 window listening to them, and there I heard one honorable Congressman and well-known Re- nretentative stand up and pledge himself, and pledged his companions, to do their utmost to supporVand care for the interests of these peo ple. it Brigham's tabernacle—a well-known cler gyman AMONG THE MORMONS. I went into the Tabernacle, and I expected to be disgusted there, too, and I was. There,seated in tho midst of a lot of “elders,” was a reverend gentleman, a well-known and much tAlked-of divine with a white necktie—the Rev. Thomas Todd—and while I was there this most reverend gentleman stood np and he made a speech, and he told a little story in which, if he didn’t di rectly illustrate it, at any rate he gave the in ference that Mormons were just as eligible for heaven as any one else. And all this was just a type of how the world outside treat of Mormon- ism and gloss over its abuses. SHAMEFUL INDI1TERENCE OF CONGRESS. Congress has no time; its committees have Hi 00 * ^7 k* ve time to scamper across the Continent, and spend public money in see- ing sights and doing nothing. And there are the newspapers, they have no time: their col umns are filled with any trash or stuff, but not a word on this. And in^tho pulpits, day after on re- day, the clergymen who fill them speak „„ to - ligion and reform, bnt not a word do they say ? ( n And ‘be women of tho land, they know it; they know how their sex are debased and degraded m this second Sodom, and with all tho influence and power that women possess, if they only chooso to nse it, they do nothing; they sit in elegance and comfort, and they say not a word. J SLAVERY OF MORMON WOMEN. I asked why, and simultaneously with the question came the answer and I saw why. In this second Sodom—this Salt Lake City—is sanctioned openly what is tolerated in San Francisco and New York. The idea is nothing more than this: that woman is man’s property all over tho world, his to hold and to keep, she to be humble and to serve and he to be indis putable lord and master. I stand here to say to you to-night, to yon men who listen to me, that a woman is just as individual and responsi ble and capable of action for herself as a man. I stand here to enter my protest as a woman against such a blasphemy as this: “That a woman is made for a man,” “that she is his property, goods, and chattels,” “that beside lim she is nothing—a myth.” That is what is being thundered from every pulpit in every city, what every newspaper in the land says and every man. Woman is to abject herself and debase herself, and hnmble herself, and lose all her individuality, and if she rebels society will only increase her misery. Men want to control in everything, they want to bo the masters of all They have always had the muscle and the force, and now they want to revive the old bru tality, the old serfdom and slavery that charac terizes barbarous and uncivilized people. INSIDE OF A HAREM. In Salt Lake City I went to the house of a Mormon elder. I was told before hand he had two wives, and that they had both lived togeth er some fifteen years, and were perfectly happy and contented—they lived together in their house and were perfectly contented with their lot, and woold not change it if they could. I was not a man. I did not believe a word of it, and so I went to see for myself. I went into their house, and it was a magnificent one. Here in Ban Francisco it would bo a fine house, and there in Salt Lake it was a slendid one. Mag nificent furniture, fine rooms, fino gardens, and numerous servants. I and my friend sat down in the parlor and in camo ono of this man’s wives. She was a fine, good-looking, healthy Englishwoman, who could not speak ten words of grammatical English to save her life. I talked freely to her; there was no hindrance to that. I asked her how long she had been married.— “Seventeen years.” “Married here?” “No.” “Married in England?” *No.” “Where were 7ou married, then?” “In St. Joseph.” Her husband began to fidget, and sent her out to get a piece of gold, or quartz, or somothing of that kind. I understood it all. She comeback, and couldn't find it, of course. I know that. I tried to commence where we had broken off, and her husband immediately wanted something on the a > of tho house. 'When she got back again, I ed to commence again where we had left off, and he broke in, “Miss Dickinson oame to eat strawberries and cream ; now, Maria, go off and •ee if they are ready.” I understood it all.— Yes, every word of it. By and by in came an other sad-looking but handsome woman. I looked at hor; aaid I at once, “Madam, you aro the second wife.” and so it turned out She, also, was an English woman, and the two of them were the handaomeal women I eew at Salt Lake. Bn?, she appeared sad and worn. There was no “joyous happiness of married life” about her. There was a piano in the room, and in camo tho little girl of the house, and at once the father sitijl something about music, and was evidently venr proud of his daughter's capabili ties in that line. So I asked her to plsy, and she did, and mado a horrid din, and, under cover of the noise and din, I had my conversation with tho wife. Sho had not understood their doctrines. I asked her: “Did you know when you married your husband that he could, if ho would, marry another woman ?” “No.” “Did he not tell you so at tho time ?” “No, he did not.

I wish he had six or seven." I saw throngh it all in a minnto. I understood the state of that woman's mind at onco. Bat I was not surprised. I looked blank and I went back on tho old Lack. I commenced and questioned her abont her English life, and I painted the picture of tho little cottage at home and tho courtship, and at last the marriage to ono whole-souled, honest husband; and how they would live together, and how slio would wait at tho door of their home nnd watch for his comiDg in the evening; and I asked her if she conld not bo happy there. And sho put hor handsome hand to her face and bowed her head and cried, “Oh, my God ! couldn’t I !" And then it was plain, it was easy to see, how that woman really thonght and felt. SIDZ-aiDDLES DENOUNCED. Miss Dickinson’s lecture was a very long ono. Sho spoke for almost two hoars, and the resame we have given above is not ono-tenth of what she said. She gavo a description of her tonr to the Yosemite vidley, and commented very se verely on the “ridiculous side-saddle mode of riding” that society had imposed on her sex, and said sho knew what sho was talking about. She had tried both ways and she conld ride with ease in the masculine style. The side-saddle stylo was very typical of the mode in which women go throngh tho world; it is a one-sided style all throngh; one. side worn ont and one aide cramped and dolled from want of use. She leoadaded bar lecture at 10:10 o’clock, tail lond applause. Tub State Fair.—This exhibition promises to be a grand affair. A superb sito has been chosen, immediately on the Macon and Western Railroad, about two and a half miles from the city, and the Executive Committee are hard at work preparing it for the forthcoming occasion. A largo amount of money will be expended, and everything done to make tho fair a glorious suc cess.’ And there is equal activity among the people. The planters, manufacturers, mechan ics, stock-raisers, and housewives all over the State are getting ready their various contribu tions, and the number promises to be greater than ever before displayed in the State. AVheth- erasregardsher centrality and convenience of ac cess, the extensive and elegant accommodations of her hotels and the hospitality of her citizens generally, Macon is par excellence the place for the Fair. Thero is no other point in the State that equals it in any of these respects, and the Society, at its very next meeting, should abolish tho migratory feature and locate the Faira per manently at Macon. There is neither rhyme nor reason in keeping it afloat, while something is dne to the public convenience as well as to the enterprising citizens of Macon, who havo spent their money, and given their labor on so Uberal a scale in behalf of the industrial inter ests of the State. Five hundred miles is too far for a citizen to travel in order to reach the Cap itol or Annual Fair in his own State.—Savannah Republican. General Korert Williams, who is much talked of as the candidate for United States Senator from reconstructed Virginia, is best known to to the general public as the officer who married the beautiful widow of the lato Stephen A. Douglas. It would indeed be pas sing strange if the lady should chance to find herself a second time the wife of an United States Senator. Cotton on the Kiyxb.—A well informed com mission merchant states there are now from three to five thousand bales of cotton on the river, waiting for a rise in the river to be trans ported to this city. Both the com and cotton crops on the river lands have proved successes. [Columbus Sun. Bagging, Salt and Ties.
