Tue Rhode Island Houss of Represent tivee took u p the woman suffrage amendment bill sgain. again, MaTti 24, and passed it by a vote of 41 to 20 This is the li rat New Kngland 8ate that has ever voted to saHmit aa amendment of this kind. The Woman's Journal says "In many respects, the submission to popn'ar vota is more likely to be successful in that Bute than in any o'.ber. Wherever a woman suffrage amendment hai beeu submitted hitherto, the ignorant and vie. one TOtsj baa been can solid against it, together with enough respectable coricrvatives U make a majority Und tb limited suffrage of Rhode Island, th-a vicious and criminal eleaafs are larzely debarred Ir:m voting. Tue suffrage amecdm Hit, therefore will hve nly the respectable conservatives to contend with, and we may reasonably hope tuat Is will be successful " The fol'ow'.ne comment of the New North west on tbe conduct of the Oregon Legislature while ende avoring to elect a Senator, is applicable to several other legislatures: ' Had a body of women wrangled for weeks over a do, sn candidates, the minority refusing to bow to the wish of the majority, we should be told that they were frivolous, vain, jealous and ready to sacrihYs the State aal the Nation on the altar of their caprl aa, spite and rivalries; that they had net the slightest conception of their du lies as citizsns and their obligations as legislators; that, in fact, they had furnished positive proof of their incapacity for self government and their unntne&a for votsrs." A joint resolution for an amendment to theconttitution s riking ont the word male and thereby extending suffrage to women, was introduced last Thursday in the Indiana House of Representatives by Honorable Mr. Beat. It secured a surprisingly large vota, forty live to forty three, in favor of its passage, though it fa'std for want of a constitutional majority. To the gentlemco In bo'h branches of tbe Legi-latore who have worked d voted t j enlarge woman s rights a. dp.ii egea tbe thanks of Ind.ara's mothers and daughters are due. A number ot .uc-a-are of special interest to women have been considered ttore or lets during theec33ion the question of suffrage, the removal of tr?o dUabidt ei I matried worn n tbe rppo ntment o!

Mrs. Harriet H. Robin o Vn the l'.iUhu" Commercial Gazette, corrvcta a misinterpretation of the action of the Ma aachnse '3 Legislature rearlirg lie petit oo of the Rev. Lou it e 8. lUkerto authorize women preacher to solemnize marriage. No legislative action, he seys, wots no1? niry oo this -juest'On. Mrs. Kobina3n continues: Olympia Brown wai the first settled wv man pastor in tbe State cf M&saachaastts. Her pariah was at Weymouth Landing. In 164 she petitioned the Massachusetts Legislature "that marriags performed by a woman should be made legal." Tue Comeuittee rn the Judiciary, to whom the matt?r was referral, reported thac no leg'slati jn was necessary, as "marriages a'.emnlzsi by . women were already legal." Toe Judiciary Committee of thisjer made their decision oa the same ground, namely, that no legis lation was necessary, women pistors already baying tbe legal right to solemnize marriag. As there wai no more to be said, of i ourse they had 1 leave t) withdriw." I have'oikea this matter np with great care, and was glad to find that the Legislature of my 8:ate was willing to allow tb.it 'ha" meant "dhe" under the law, in one instance, at least, even so far back as 1864 Since tfcat time it has paired, in 1ST 1, a law declaring that "no person ehill be bs demed ineligible toeerve upon a School Comm ittee on accouatofsex;'' an j in i - : v alas; declaring that "Tbe provisions of the law relating to the qualification and admission to practica as attorneys .it law shall apply to womn. ' Thus you see that In Massachusetts women have the tame rights as men in three instances: First, aa ministers to solemuizs marriage; second, tne same right to serve a3 school committee?, and third, the same light to become attorneys at lav. In none ot the old fashioned trak!es upon "female duration"' vi si it tur "sted that the aludy of sauitary science wss needi ul to woman in filling their "proper position as wives u otb rs atd housekeeper M What idea has aaa evolved by woman themselvo3 under the new d sensation of higher education and other ?forms against nature, " so calif u Not until woman had 1 unseied themselves" bv qrov n their capacity to learn, no Greek alqhate', did they manifest my coi aiderable inter, a in Dh78lotorical stridy and physical culture in the coemistry cf cooking a d the hy. e ie n( homs. An intelligant lc ki sg after the household with view to preventiog disease bas became a theme c interest for woman'.' clubs and woman's conversations, and sanitary science will soon be generally recognizsd as an essential study for woman. As applied to the household it is clearly and adm rabty -t forthin a volume recently issued b D. Aupleton A Co , New York, entitled 'Women, Plumbers and Doctors," by Mi. H. M. Ihunkett. of l'.ttstield, Mas. 8ome years ag Mi-. Plunkett was honored by the British Royal Society wita honorable mention by name in their "Transactions," in recognition of her pioneer services to the then new science of sanitation, as reported to the Society at tbe time by the Dr. Henry I Bowditch of Be to Now, after years of iavf stigatton and oieervation, and after the ?tudy itself bas oeen developed into a department of science, Mra. Plunkett embodies the result of her labors in a a invaluahia manual of domestic sanitation. The purpose ana spirit oi tne boox i indicated on tbe title pere, ' if women and plumber- d their whole sanitary duty, there wQ bi cmpara tively little occasion for the -srvic?- of the dectora. Women, she hold , ' are more interested in preventive medicine and houaeho'd hygiene than man. To the woman, whe- destiny it is to remain a large share of the time art borne, whose divinely appointed roifsion it is 'to guide the house,' a new sphere cf u-efuine a and efficiency opens with the knowledge that in sanitary matters an ounce of prevention is worth a ton of cure. There is nothing in hygiene that she can not comprehend, and too often does sba lesdfaa this and begin to study it when, too late, she stands beiide the still form of ome prrcloos one, slain by some one cf those prove n tibia diseases that, in the coming sani tar v mlllenium, a ill be reckoned akin to murdara." Ia toppoit of her position the quotes Dr.

UsMMMa, President of the British Md?( si Association, who declares: "I hare been brcupht by experience to the conclusion that tie whole future prepress of the sanitary movement rets for permanent and executive support on the women of the country." In this volume tbe author takes women on a thoT'cirh and instructive search over

NEW OBLKAIW,

TheTrip of a Hoosler Party to the Crwreot City Incidence, Correspondence of the Bandar Sentinel . Our party started from Indianapolis at 1 a. m., aad arrived at C.nctnnati in time to eat a harried breakfast, get our tickets tor the "Mann Baudoir" car 'for which we had telegraphed reveral davs before; ani board the train for New Crleac The scenery be twet n t inclnnati and New Orleans, with few exception?, :s monoton oils and uninteresting. High Bridge over tbe Kentucky I'.tvsr is tbe most picturesque and romutic spot on ti.e whole journey. On the evening of the econd day we neared Near Orleans, entering it by crossin .the famous twanty-one mile tit -tie acroes Lake l'oncharlrain, whish h said to be the longest bridge in the world. Workmen were ropairi: g it where it had I recently been burned, and our train want over the first naif of it at a sn ill's pace, the j timbers creak a j and .rroanijg beneath our weight. Arriving at New Ofleana we took a can:'. ige for the Hotel Royal and wera forj tnnate ercugh to secure the very la&t 7acant rooms in tie house, where we were snugly j enEorsed during our entire visit. The Ho- : tel Rojale is the finest ictel in New Orleans, i and ha; quite a history. It, fronts on three streets, the Hrst st ry is of granite, and the other three stories are of stuu ?, pa t te 1 to im'tate granite. It has a wealth of yer trdss on all tides, and a great dome iu the center, the MUisg of which was frescce I by Canova, a nephew of the graat scu'pto -. 1 1 was originally the St, Louis Hotel, and after many vic'ssitudes It was sold to the Government and used as a State house. If th'- old walls could speak, they would tell many a ta'e cf strife End blocd shed enacted there. After being given up as a State hous?, the building stood empty for several years, and was a regular tumble-down old rookery, until purchased by the present proprietor and translormed into the elegant "Hotel Eoyale." We had read all about the historic Interest attaching to the dining - room at the hotel, where slaves were .aid to have been sold in former days. But we found those roaiant'c tales to be' entirely fabulous, the real place of sale being an old ruined and haunted bank builaing in the rear of the hotel. There were pointed out to us the remains oi tbe old slave reus, where tho slaves were barred in until suob time as they were put upen the block above to be sold to the highest bidder. Oppcsite to tbe hotel, on Chartrei street, is a quaint, old-fashioned stuccoed building, which at the time of its erection was the finest house in New Orleans It wai intended as a gift to the great Napoleon, from an enthusiastic admirer in the para JO of Mr. t'ircd, who, with other patriotic Frenchmen, was engaged in a deep laid scheme for ths rescue of that unhappy mor . 1 -ch from the barren rocks of St. Helena aud his tran-pr-tat on to New Orleans in a fast sailing vessel, built for the purpose, when the ncw3 reached America cf tbe death of Nap .eon. One bright altern jou we took a little stroll along the "Bas loyale" and the adjacent neighborhood, in search of some cf tbe queer old houses immortalized by George W. Cable. We thought we recognized several, and were quite satisfied with our ramble throng': tba Trench tvaarter," with its irregular tileroofed houses, aud little gardens which were entirely hidden from cur curious gazs by tbe high brick walla which surrounded Ü em. We visited the Cotton exohinge, St. Charles Hotel, Custom House, where we saw the bnest business room iu the world, and tbe United States mint, where w were interested, not only in the old building, but in seeing for tbe first time lbs various processes tbrcugh which the silver gees beford it Is turred out a bright and alluring "mighty dollar." Early Sunday morning, in the rain, we Visited the old Fiench Market, where we had a glorious opportunity to s'.u ly human nature, in all its various phaves. u.i the way back to our hotel, we pissed through Jackson S uare,the old "Placed' Armee" which in the early days of New Orleans history, was the religious, social, busines?, and military center ot the city. It was here that public executions took place, the gatlews stai ding in ths middle of the Square And here the miserable criminals were ei that hung, shot, or na'led alive in the'.r xLi isl ard then slowly fuwed in half. Tue ol "Place d'Armes," which has beu th3 sc?ae of so msny tragic and romantic event?, has teen trsn.'ormed into the beautiful park, with itsshsll walks.parterres 01 Hjwdrs, f 11cifully ipped shrubbery, and eq lestrla . statue ct Andrew Jickson, which was the first equestrian statue with the horse in th: act of n axitg, ever erected, St. Ljuis Ctthcdral, built in 1788. faces the square on Chsrtres street. We attended 9 o'clock mas?, and there saw mingled with the rest of the congregation, devout French aud ejldftd women, who had stopped in to say their I prayers, on thtir way home from market, and reverentlv knelt nn th mrh! floir surrounded by their baskets, bandies, buckets, fish, live chickens aid geese. After church we went out to West Bad (a popular New Orleans re-ort, on Like Pontchartrain) and the cemeteries, which owing to the marshy soil contain few grayes. the dead baing laid away in tombs or vaults, which re semble miniature white marble hous?s, minus chimneys or windows. The c?mete::c-: are all laid ot! in avenues, which are lined on either side by rows and rows oi these little hcu-e - We were told that eometimei during a freshet, these t nibs crumble to pieces, and eoffinf of all sizes can be seen sailing about in every direction. New Orleans is bountifully supplied with parks and atatues, She can claim the honor of being the first city in the United Stiles to raise a statue to a woma. In front of tbe Female Orphan Asylum stands the "Margaret' statue. A white marble figure of a woman, seated in a chair with one arm about the neck of a child who stands at her sids. Sie was a poor Irish wo. tan unable to read or write, who by her own exertions acquired a fortune, wh;ch at her death was bequeathed to various orphan asylums, regardless of sect In Lafayette Square is a marble statue of Franklin, by tbe greit American sculptor, Hiram Powers, with whose name wa always associate that masterpiece of art, the Greek Slave. The statue of General Robt. E. Lee. in Lee C.rcle, was unveiled in 1883. It is of bronze, standing on a marble pillar one hundred feet high. It represents Lee standing with folded arms, looking over the scene of battle. Clay statue of granite stands in a little circle on Canal street and is in the official center of the city. All street car stakt from the Clay statue, and to the tourist it is ooe ot tbe chief land marks, by means of which he finds ads way around. Upon the whole, I did not fi id New Orleans to be such a quaintly curious city as my fancy painted it. My wildest dreams never pictured to me a city half so filthy. All garbage is thrown into the street- and the gutters are nothing more than open sewa, which "smell to heaven." Many miles of muddy streets are entirely deserted by at vehicles except the funny little two wheeled milk carts, which flounder along hub deep in mud. The absence of private carriages in all i arts of the city was quite noticsabie. The enly streets in the residence portion of the city which were fit to drive on were on the street car lines By keeping on the s ree cart: a ks, wh:co are paved with stone io the businft- portion cf the city, and planked everywhere elss, wagons and hacks manage to get over tbe ground very welL 8treet car drivers and owners of vehicles of all dascriptior 1 seem to be mutually forbearing towards one an ether, aa to tbe right of way. the car trucks apparently being common property. St. Charles, which is supposed to be the fashionable residence street, ia not

equal to Meridian or Delaware cere et?. It ia paved its entire length with asrbalt as far as tbe middle of tbe street on one eids only, tl e other side being one impassible mas?) of bisek mod. d.yided from the asphalt pavemiBt by the street car track. The fences, or brick wails,which surround residences in all parts of tbe city are very high ; the gates, aoparsnt'y being kept locked by dc? as wsli aa by night, are well supplied with tell knoba aud mall boxes. Cisterns instead of being nier ground are built ot woid, clo-e beside the houses, a? high as the rooXa, and look like huge churns with lids like O7ergrown mushroomr. The j els greeted everywhere with a surplus of veiar.das, an - tbe tiniest ol cottages, as well a more pie'.entious dwelling', ere frequently built JL wood wtth fructs pa'ntej in imitation of whits marble We devoted pert of one moroLog t visiting Spanish Fort, a not er famous New Orleans reeorh It wis baUt during .Sy-.nisa ra'e. as a protection for toe city iainst assaults of Indian, or raids of pirates who infested the Golf of Mexico and swooned dowi on dafenseless colon ies within Jitir lesch. Atter ' doing" Spanish 1 ort, as we had an hour on our hands fcefcre lunch, we concluded t) go down to the wharf, fee the vessels from all nation and take a trip cut to the ' 3rg ship Tennessee, w hich Jay anchored in tbe river. The vesael

was thronged with visitors, who seemed Lo be much interned in all that shown to them. I Itgot here I was 'or a moment, and fully expected the sailora to sing a chorus from "Finaf.rapj 1 actually caught myself locsing aroundo see- where "dear Little Buttercup" had hidden lierealf and her warcB. After lunch we da? tiled to go out to JackacL's battle grcuad, a' d the U S. B'.rracke, which proved to :3 the hardest aftmeoia work we had done w lile in New ".leans, and when we fou'id on rttnrni: vto the city that wa might have gore st much more quickly aud easily by st auicr, we felt more tired than ever. We tcok a etsast car, rode S' veral miles, to tbe end of the line, where we were told that tbe battle ground and Cf a'mette cemetery were a mile and a hilf farther cn, and that we could easily walk it. But when we surveyed the black mud which lay before "Ins on the road along the levee, our ardor began to codI, aud we had almost decided not to go auy further, when the street csr driver toM us of a young man with a wagon, in the neighborhood, wf;o ire' quently carried passcrgera to Chalmotte. 8) we held a council of war on tho river bink, and decided to hunt up tbe youth with the wsgon, who, when found and interviewed on the subject, agreed to take us for a quar tcr apiece, (We learned afterwards that ti f -teen cents apiece for the round trip was the usual rate ) We climbed into the wam and ttertd oiTcvr the worst series of mud holes we had yet encounteied. After a very hard and uncomfortable ride we arrived at Chaimette, and our Jehu drove up to a Mean ( cat wharf to unload us. Tbe rat of the ladies maced to get out of the wagon without much dnb julty, bnt 1 never could climb, ard every time 1 put my toot over the side of the wagon tbe horse would giva a wild ttart forward, and I d sit down. Not that I wanted to sit down; in fact I waa awfully tired of sitting. Bat the horets seemed to want me to, and I didn't like to appear unaccommodating, etpecia'ly as there were a alexia or more loungers on the wharf ioukirg on. So I sat down promptly every time tbe hcr9ea tcok it into tbeir headi that I must. I tried getting out of that waon fora aid and eidewhe. and then I trisi to cl mb out backward, bitting do vn suddenly evjry little while io think. The loungers aam t to lock upon the affair as a huge joke by this time, and were ail grinning from etr to eir, when .lie sexton ot the ceui3tery, happening to paea by, kindly came to the rescie ard lii'ed me out, and I hurried into the cfnie'e-y to hde my embarrassment a-oong the tombitouss which mark the resting places of so many cf our brave o'diers. The rest of the oarly soon followed and we started on a hunt for the Jack'oo monument. We learned from other touns'.s whom we met tnat it was not in the cemeury at all, but a half a mile ba R on the road, ou'r which we bal just labored. NothiDg daunted, we determined to hud that historic spot if it took all summer. All this time we were treading the very ü9ldon which General Jackson foagbt, the memorable battle of New Orleans, and defeated the Bntieh with such slaughter, in 1814. But we didn't find it ont until afterward), or we wculd have walked more reverently over the sod which covers the boues of so many dead heroes. After tolling on through the field?, and over tbe fences, we saw tbe half-finished and crumbling monuments towering up in the distance. Wb lirgered abnt the spat for a little while picking up pieces ol marbls as mementoes, ai d gathering Spanish moss from the live oak trees, and then we retraced our steps toTsrds t ie street c irs, finding it mich easier to weik tte mile aai a hilf than to ride over euch a rongh road, In a farm waecn. After a hearty dinner, and a g)ui n:gtt'i rest, we ro;e bright and early the next mcrning, with a feeding of satisfaction to think that wc had "d ne" the city so thoroughly, and arxiens to visit tbe Expos tion. We weie all aprteably disaopo'nted in the Expedition, having hea4 so many unflattering reports concerning it. It would take me a week to wiite a'")nt all the wouderiul, beautiful, and useful things we -tw there. If I had seen nothing but the bronz33 iu the Bas ian department, and several of the gt;i'id pictur- in the art gdllery, I would have felt well repaid for my trip to the "Sunny Sauth." After bidding fa-e well to the llxpc tion we concluded to wind up our visit to the Cresceut City by taking a tripdewn to Kad Jetties Daringmy brief sojourn in the-city. 1 hsu been much struck by the absence of co;o:ed help at the hotels and restaurant", Tbc waiters were either Trench, German, or Spanish, the bail i'oys. porters, and chambermaids aeemci to b mostly importations of energetic wideawake people from tbe great Northwest, who had come down s .uth with the laudable ambition of seeing the deposition, and turning a few honest pennies at the same time. Even the street car dnvera were white, and I be. .ran to wonder what there was left far the colored brother to do aside from toting'' washings for his btttr half, when the scene along the wharfs where tbe vessels from all nations were be mg loaded ettled the qu?s ijn. The colored man was relegated to the monotonous task of handling the cotton ( ties, sugar barrels and filling up the coal barges. Our trip down the river to the Jetties and return, took us a day and a night. Io comparison with the wild and picturesque scenery alorg the upper Mississippi, the landscape from New Orleans to the Gulf ot Mexico seemed commonplace and devoid ot interest, the eye becoming wearied by the ever recuriiDg ranoramaoi rice field, orange groves, and sugar plantations. Arrived at Poit Esds the Captain allowed us the privilege of landing, where For hilf an hour "with pensive thought," We "waudcret on tbe sea beat shore. To gather shells" but tbey'd all been "sec oped" By the Port Eads boyi some time before. and i f we wanted any as memento? so the trip, we had to buy them from aforesaid boys at live cents a handful, and find out afterwards that they were not indigenous to the "ea beat -bores" of Port Erts after all, bat came from the coast of I'lorida.
