bright morning and promises to be warm.
And now we have got into the white
settlements. The train is crowded and
everybody is hurrying and pressing every
where upon some set ana earnest pur
pone. Men. women and children swarm
like boos. Humanity looks plenty and
cheap—^worth ten cents a dozen, with
few thrown in for make-weight. They
am nice looking people, too—
dr.-bed—clean faces—but thero*s
many of them that they mu.it bo cheap,
in* asnrod by a financial basis.
We arc off, and in a few minutes atop

no—for at Wilmington wo arc turned

Three or four parlor cars; are added
our train, and we now number cighto
pA*icngcr aara, all crowded—say about
eight hundred to a thousand passengers,
at seven dollars apiece. The trnin is sol
vent— it pays expenses.-
Note the taste displayed in Scott’s lo
comotives and rolling stock—black in
color, with gilded stripes and the bright
est kind of crimson upholstery,
gay the welLdrsesod 1 Julies look in these
parlor cars—like fairies on bonks of
flowers.
What a prodigious engine drugs this
interminable train, and darts it with
•difficulty. Her wheel i spin round on the
rail, and /-he ierks in violently back and
forth for a minute before we make Die
start. And what an awful momentum
imch a train lias,tnoving forty miles
hour. The old fashioned lever bn
brings it up far too slowly for safety, but
they liavo no other. The brakemen never
leavo their pods while tho train is in mo
tion. They are all uniformed in bine
blouses, and so are the conductors an *
cverv other officer of the train. The
also have tho regulation blue cap. Orth
and discipline, gentlemen. But still tin
miss it in some particulars. The to
speed of the train is about forty mile
but though the stops are few and fort w
miles apart, there is a good deal of delay.
It is al>out one hundred and ninety-five
miles to Now York, and it is mad<
seven hours and twenty-five minutes. The
actual running time is less than six hours.
What a world of activity cluster*
about the Pennsylvania railroad purl:

Mr. lien. Taylor, of Taylor, Dunaway
A Bros., lumber merchants, on Eight!',
street, between Madison and Washing!
relates an incident of which he was
Gjc-witness, at hi* lumber-yard, cn Thurs
day, that strongly illustrates that univer
sal feeling, mother-love, which so per
vades all animal life that, from the high
er to the lowest grade, all are akin in
thM respect.
On Thursday morning, in removing the
last board* of a stuck of planks, n rat’s
nest with nine young ones was found un
derneath. The little rodents were about
the size of mice, and were able to crawl
about at a lively rate. An old-f.whioneJ \rir- •
trap was procured* tho young rats put in
it. a Weigh: put on the top and it was left
on the ne*t and watched. The trap wa.-
:\ -cmi-shjvm, with a funnol-shapiu en
trance in the top and a lifting-door in the
side.
After waiting some half hour the
mother rat made her appearance, show
ing evident anxiety about her litter. She
hesitated tome time before approaching
the trap, but finally her affection pre-
vailed. and she boldly v-.-ntur.-d out.
within twenty feet and in full view of the
watchers. She ran several times around
the prison that contained b or young, triad
tho wires with her teeth, and made many
demonstrations of solicitadoand distress.
At length, finding that she could not get
in to the voung ones, she determined io
bring them out to her. Tho manner in
which she accomplished this showed
something akin to that reason of which
man i* wont to boast llmt he is the only
pi'»*.N*or.
Placing herself dose against tho wires
she made a peculiar noise—a kind of gen
tle squtwk—which Immediately attracted
the attention of her young. It was evi
dent to tlie observers that sle wna en
deavoring to ••bring them to their milk.
And they came to the familiar call. First
one little fellow put his n< so between tho
wire*, and l-t-ing a little encouraged and
lulled by the'mother, who pressed her
own nose between the same wire®, thus
spreading them a little wider apart* he
squeezed liis head through. In :tn in-
>taut >he caught him l*y the back of the
iuvk, and in spite of hi* squealing and
crying under tho i»a.inful prooess. >he
pulled him forcibly through the wire* and
ran off with him under a pile of lumber
near by. lVoMMy a minute elapsed be
fore she reappeared, having deposited her
iv.-cued voung one in safety. S.a- was
evidently encouragtHi by her success, and
i-ujU.ldeuod by the fact that she had not
Uvn molested. and proceeded to re?c;io
cm- after another of her young, in the
Mim- manner, until she had taken out
eight.
1'nc watchers then half buried the trap
in tho h-»*e dirt, and for a while the de
voted mother was in great ilistress about
how to get out the last of her litter. But
she soon found that the little fellow
couldn't roach her through the top. and
she commenced digging down to him,
throwing out the dirt eagerly as if incited
to extra cicrtiona by the lamentations of
her young one. She burrowed just in
front of the lifting dour, ou reaching
which she immediately entered, and, to
her surprise, found herself a prisoner.
She had sacrificed her own liberty to her
mother-love, and, as the event proved. Lor
life also, for she ww killctl, though her
lalfors and courage in behalf of that feel
ing which vi instinct in all, aud which is
pro) ably the most sacred impulse of the
human hretft, should have won m.-ny
from her captors, and secured la-r from
harm.
*T want the day to come when woman
will vote. Without the vote I f.-ar we
wifi nmror Is* aide to put down the house*,
of infamy and liquor j aloons of our coun
try. Nothing is po ruinous to the coun
try, it is true; and it is my opinion that
we can’t get along without woman voting.
It is n* >t good for man to lx* alone.”
Herein Bishop ffiopno makes an as
sumption which is almost always, made
Ijy the advocates of woman suffrage,
namely, that women are morally superior
to men. Those who make this assump
tion pay a tribute to woman, in a spirit
of gallantry, but they do not pay quite
so high a tribute to the truth. Woman
is a*human being, os well as man, and is
apt to bear him pretty close company in
his degradation as well as in his elevation.
Th«- tw«. have dili’- r. nt n.itur-- ,i cer
tain c-xtent, it is true; ho has a manly
and she a womanly nature, and each na-
t ure has a kind of moral deformity pecu
liar to itself; but facts do not at all bear
out the assumption that the deformity of
the one is greater than that of the other.
Man has the vices as well as the virtues
of the stronger nature. Woman has the
vices as well as the virtues of the weaker,
nature. Tho vices and tho virtues of the
xcs are about oqually balanced, and it
follows that the infusion of woman into
politics would be the infusion of weakness
into politics, without any compensating
gain of virtue.
Bishop Simpson, in common with other
fcmals suffragists falls into two errors.
The first consists in taking only good
women into tho account. There are
hosts of good and pure and intelligent
women in the land. That nobody doubt
But there are also hosts of bad and im
pure and ignorant women; and the latter
are the ones who would certainly be
swiftest to avail themselves of the op
portunity to vote. Tho women who are
interested in maintaining “houses of in
famy,” and who are ever ready to drag
tho young of their own sex down to their
own level, would be the most prompt to
cast their ballots. Next would come the
beer and whisky-drinking wives and
daughters of the beer and whisky-drink
ing crowds whose habits the good bishop
would regulate by laws made by pure
women. Next would oome tho giddy-
beaded throng of girls who would de
scribe an honest mechanic as “perfectly
horrid,” and a plate of steamed oysters
on toast as “perfectly splendid.” Have
the Woodhull sisterhood of obscure •‘re
formers” been omitted from this enu
monition of first comers ? Not all. They
will \*3 found among the very first. Last
of all would come the gentle, loving, pa
tient, modest, true-hearted wives and
mothers; the sacred lights and orna
ments of the homes where honorable sons
and virtuous daughters are reared; the
women who instinctively know that theirs
is the empire of heart and home, and who
arc willing through these to elevate and
pl.l .!V ! ':.*• -t.i!*-.
The good bishop’s second error consist*
in failing to take account of the probable
influence of political life upon the char
acter of women. It does not seem to
have occurred to him that much of what
is ljod in politics is due to tho tempta
tions to which those who excrciso politi-
al privileges are subjected. The per-
on who is more accurately than politely
described as a “ ward bummer ” is the
product of certain political opportuni
ties. What assurance is there that there

OCTOBER 27TH, 1S73,
would not bo the corresponding feminine
product if like opportunities were offered
to women ? Certainly no such assurance
is found in the fact that a very close ap
proximation to this bad product is even
now to bo found in nearly every commu
nity. And what assurance is there that
there would not be found to exist a class
of women corresponding to the class of
men who sell their votes for beer and
whisky, or for the favor of an employer ?
Those who are acquainted with the prac
tices of neighborhood scandal mongers,
oral who know what weapons tho female
politicians are using in their newspaper
organs, can hardly doubt that politics
would reach a lower deep than ever if
tho same temptations of ambition and
avarice wore held out to women that are
now held out to men. If good Bishop
Simpson were once to see two ewe lambs
f his own fold struggling for the emolu
ments of office he would probably find
himself too much occupied in patching
up two badly torifc iaid shredded reputa
tions to give much time to the advocacy
of woman suffrage for several months.
A. third error may be mentioned. It
lies in the supposition that most women
would vote independently, according to
the dictates of their own judgments and
msmences. They would do nothing of
the kind. Tho wives and daughters of
persons who, liko Bishop Simpson, think
that the saloons and brothels ought to be
exterminated by law, would vote with
their husbands and fathers to put down
the saloons and brothels. But the wives
uid daughters of those who disagree with
Bishop Simpson on these subjects would
with their husbands and fathers.—
And tho women who had no husbands or
fathers would be quite as likely to vote
against the good Bishop as with him. In
rhaps ninety-nine cases out of a hun
dred it would make no sort of a differ-
mco with the result whether the women
voted or not; and in tbc hundredth case
there is no assurance that the result
would bo any nearer what it ought to be
consequence of their voting.
But supposing the enfranchised women
of a community should arise in their
might and with a small majority of the
men enact that no saloons should exist
Dng them, who would enforce the law ?
Should the execution of the law be re
ted, it would havo to be executed by
force or it would become of no effect.
oppose, then, three-fourths of the men
in the community should resist the law,
ven to armed rebolb’on, who would en-
i>rce it ? The women, to bo sure. But
such an encounter the result would
•t be doubtful. A rebellion of three-
fourths of the men against the other one
fourth, and all the women, could hardly
fail to succeed. Of course this supposed
would not bo likely to be realized to
stent of bloodshed, bnt would often
bo realized to the extent of nullification,
sosures adopted by women’s votes
iould be oppressive and unjust. The
e is 6upi*osod here merely to call at-
tion to the fact that the power to make
* is nugatory without the power to
cute them. All children who are able
toddle to the polls might vote; but
who imagines that laws produced by their
:os would command the same respect
1 obedience as law* produced by the
otoa of men ? Assuredly no one.
The answer to this will be that women
are not children. This is true as re
gards the fact of age and maturity. But
m respect to the exercise of force, which
is necessary to tho execution of all law,
the relation of all women to society is sub
stantially the same as that of children.
They have not the foioe to execute law,
and, therefore, laws enacted by them
would be nullities. The voioe of nature
declares, and has not ceased to declare
since the world stood, that it is woman’s
nature to rule by gentler influences than
law. She may mould law by persuasion
and by the education of her children, and
that she is constantly doing; but it will
always Ik? folly for her to promulgate
laws as by authority ao long as she has
not the power of will and the power of
muscle to enforce them. She may do
much “to put down houses of infamy and
liquor saloons,” but she will not do it
through the ballot-box as long as she is
t, and not man.

to displace tho use of volatile and dangerous oil. j
Its safety under every possible test, and its per

use in over 300,000 families. Millions of gallons
have been sold and no accident—directly or indi
