and our cause will be onward and our labors will be blessed. John Bright.
The latter part of your editorial
would suggest that you supposed the Catholic clergy were in sym
pathy with an effort to prevent free
speech, but this 1 am sure is a mis
take. The conduct of the few
toughs met the hearty disapproba
tion of the priests and representatives of the Catholic church. One
of them, the vicar general, came to the hall and urged the people to go home, telling Catholics that they
were disgracing their church by
their conduct. The lieutenant col
onel in command of the military,
who came in prompt obedience to the summons, is a Catholic and one
of our best and purest citizens. He
is an earnest Catholic, and his sis
ter was for many years an ornament to the noble Order of the Sisters of
Charity, and died a membe: of that
order. But, notwithstanding this,
and notwithstanding the natural
and proper disgust that he felt for
the lecturer, he was as ready as the
most ardent Protestant to protect
him in his legal nghts and to put
down any lawlessness directed
against him. I happen to know of
one company in the city which has,
I am informed, ten Catholic mem
bers, and every one of these was in the ranks responding promptly to the call to duty. Its captain is a Catholic and a Christian gentleman. Another company upon the ground readv to assist the authorities was
composed entirely of Catholics. I am sure no one familiar with the
facts would charge that the mob was
"Romanist mob," or would inti
mate that the Catholics of Savannah were in sympathy with the lawlessness.
I know that it is entirely foreign
to your spirit or purpose to do the slightest injustice to anyone, or to encourage the unreasonable and un
reasoning prejudices against Catholics which, unhappily, some narrow and bigoted Protestants entertain.
For this reason I submit this com munication. Samuel B. Adams

again, we no douoi win nave his
rue age. But old people never do
ike to own their age, especially
when they are not married.
But we will consider him the age
of 15, and wonder how he becdme so wise, and when he knew "hun
dreds of women in business," and
if he does know them, does he know of one who has lost one whit of
tier self respect or refinement by do
ing business? True, this is not the verdict of the greater part of the noble and generous minded men of our
and. lo doubt "School boy"
would have woman laid upon the
shelf, and wrapped in silk paper on-
when in use that is, so long as
they stay young and handsome. Still he is wise enough to know
'the world is hungry for something
new," and that being the case the women are going to give it purer ballots, purer offices, and conse
quently a purer nation. We do not
ose any of our "exquisite fine
ness" by standing by our husbands, brothers and fathers.

It is only among people of mod-
era civilization that the supremacy of woman is regarded as a novelty. In Rome under the Empire there was a singular institution,where a tribunal of women was established to decide questions regarding luxury and etiquette. The Emperor
Hehogabalus consulted this assem
bly frequently. They decided questions of precedence, the number and styles of females at court, upon the style of carriage the Em
peror should ride in, whether sedan chairs should be ornamented with silver or ivory, and contested the rights of man" with an intelligence worthy of the present time, approved by wiser men than Heliogabalus, and was re-established and maintained by his successors.
Ihere occurred in the reign of
Henry VIII, a curious case of a weman who acted as a judge. She
was Laoy Anne Berkeley, of Gloucestershire, who appealed to the
King to punish a partv of rioters.
who had entered her park, killed her deer and burned her hayricks. His Majesty granted her a special
commission to try the offenders, and, being armed with his authority, she appeared in court, heard the
charge, and, on a verdict of guilty,
pronounced the sentence.
This question of woman's su
premacy does not always signify an
advanced state of society, as will be seen from the following account of
a small State in Java, between the towns of Samarang and Batavia.
known as the Kingdom of Bantam. In regard to its form of government.
and the manners and customs of its inhabitants,it far exceeds the wild
est dreams of feminine minds.
From time immemorial Bantam.
though tributary to Holland, has
oeen governed by woman. The
sovereign is a man; but that is a small matter, as he himself is sub
ject to a council of three women.
High dignitaries, officers, soldiers
and all the court attendants are without exception women, who see that men are employed in agricul
ture and commerce. The Kins'a

In several villages of Finland the
woman has authority, for a religious
sect exists there whose disciples are I mm ...
oroed when about to marry to take
an oath to submit to the wife in all things. The women choose one woman for their eoverninar head.
whose duty it is to see that the men behave themselves, and to punish them if they transgress. Similar are the "Purificants" of Liberia.
