It 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 at the inUrsoction of Tom Scott’s air line. There*! no rivalry hero—bless you, no—for at Wilmington wo arc turned over bodily to Thomas Scott A Co., and il the i. t -•!' ,.iii ii.unu-y undt-r ti. auxpioo* of the Pennsylvania Railroad. 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: in Philadelphia. It is bewildering They cover a vast area, and or* occupied by on array of workmen.- Looking out, we see one of these black an< gilded locomotive engines, numbered 18' New bridge-!, embankments. tunnels, cul verts nua tracks are going up or going under all around you, and tlieVork is all . as solid as the pyramids. In short, an not to put too fine a point on it, it*s a big thing everywhere, and you feel there are three months* study just around yon. The sandy plains of New Jersey smile with life, beauty and fertility. Wooden palaces, and some with towers like unt Solomon's temple. aUmnd.

But with such a poor capital to begin on, here are corn flaws like eane- 1 .rakes with .‘■talks a foot apart and sticking out horizontally.

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.

HOPKINS, Prom Louisville. Ky„ 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. maaddm sa experienced sadcwftd pfcsrausw- tist, and by imsaphu— snd sMautfan to tnui* I ncs*. he will coamt-iul himself to the patronage I of the ritfak iiHof South Macon.

Millions of gallons have been sold and no accident—directly or indi rectly—has ever occurred from burning, storing or handling it. The immense yearly loss to life and property, resulting from the use of cheap and dan- ; terous oils in the United States, is appalling.
