ipliere that must ever debar hoi
from self aggrandisement, that
must ever circumscribo her thoughts
Throughout the past, exceedingly
selfish and mistaken views of her
reliability to man, and to her Cre
ator deprived her of the right of
privilege to improve and threaten
ed her with the bloom of oblivion.
Then their contracting laws, cus
toms and superstitions, of antiqui
ty receding from her the light of
civilization ceased to cage her in
tellect. Woman ever unassuming
but ever prompt to fill her plaoe,
steps proudly into the fields of art,
science and literature and .demon
strates to thcastouud.d world the
fact that her intellect is brilliant,
potent and wonderful. It not man's
equal she has proven herself fully
able to accompany his masculine
genius through the intricate branch
es of philosophy, geometry and
other sciences.
Woman’s forte is not her intel
lect but her influence. It was for
eign to the purpose of the Deity
to create two beings different in n -
ture and disposition, to fill pre
cisely thesume sphere. Woman
was designed to bless the life of
man and to tame his savage imt ire,
and to this task she is admirably
adapted.—Gentle, humane and
sympathetic; she is inves'ed with
charms which Angels unabashed
might wear,which bring man whol
ly within the bounds* of influence
and makes her conqueior of the
human heart.
She is capable of revolutionizing
the world and of elevating and con
trolling society. Her influence il
properly wielded, would rescue
millions from the gloom of an un
timely grave; would hash the wail
of starving orphans ; and lift h
burden of grief and woe that is
crushing her own heart. Often it
becomes a tongue of eloquence; an
irresistable power. St. Pier felt it
when he said, “Edward winds our
cities but Philippa conquers our
hearts.”
Woman has hever known the
power of her influence. She has
slumbered while rocked by the
tempest. Silently but mightily it
works, while immense tasks grow

TUESDAY, DEO., 7th, 1880 ;
Adjournment ot the Legislature.
li seems that the General As
sembly have decided to adjourn
over to next summer. We have as
we believe in common with the
people ut Georgia, some very seri
ous objections to this action of that
body, some of which we propose
very briefly to state.
Our first objection is, that our
Legislators seem to be inclined te
nullity the action of the Constitu
tional Convention in TSquiring the
Legislature to meet in December.
Ot course we do not object to an
adjourned session of the General
Assembly whenever it may be nec
essary; hut we do object to the
practice of adjourning every ses
sion to the next summer; for this
it seems to us, will be a violation
of the spirit of the Constitution. Of
course we admit that the body
m<y by a constitutional vote hold
an ..djourn term, hut in our judge
ment this is allowed only when
the business cannot all be transact-
e I at the regular session. Legis
lators have no right, according to
our m 'de of thiukiug, to neglect
the publii; business tor two weeks
and tlien say there id necessity for
an udjourned session; and iu this
connection ws are glad to say that
our tlepresentative and Senator are
not responsible lor the adjourned
session of next summer.
lu the second place an adjourn
ment at this time works great in
convenience audloss to many parts
ol the Stale. For instance: our
pe"ple were uskiug the General
assembly to amend the charter of
our town so that our people can,
il tncy desire to do it, iuauguarte
u school system that many believe
;s of vital importance to the wel-
larc and prosperity of our town.
How if the system is to be inaugu
rated the sooner the better; but
the adjournment ot the General
Assembly will delay the matter
uuotlier twelve months,as our coun
cil can take uo action until our
cluu ter is amended. Wo do not I small, obstacles vanish and opposi-
biauie our beuator and Eepresen- tions succumb. It is like the vol-
touch.

making an “Imitating .linger Machines ” Why are’ not siipilar
companies formed for making imitations of other Sewing Machines P
The public will draw its own inference. Gold is continually coun-

Sewing Machines sold throughout the world iti 1880, were genuine
