The path of reform has ever been rouxb and thorny. It winds up the stony mountain side, through noisome valleys, and over rude and monstrous barriers. Anon it discloses scenes of infinite leauty and the f.ir off summit where the roses bloom forever. OMener it leads through gloomy shades where ser|»ent8 hiss and sting. It has been trodden by no unbruised feet, though earth's noblest and Ixist have travelled it. In olden time it led to the martyr's stake, a great or lesser Calvary. The growth of humanity has at last ma le it possible £orpmanrtjo follow it to triumph. Vkm

The day lor the discussion of woman's rights as a mere sentiment is gone by. This is a movement real and oarneiit. The battle must be fought squarely and bouestly. The cause has not bgen weaker in numbers for years than now, because it has met with lu. first red obstacles, and some advocates who are weak and nerveless are skulking from the field.

The time has comn for work and action. leaders in the movement must bear a hi rden of misrepresentation, detraction and hale. To women theuiselveH the contest will be most severe. It hat been well said that the fashionable woman who avows herself an advooate of this movement shows more courage tban the man who commands a battery in action. It is the eustoin of fools,aod of fashionable idiots Jn particular, to ascribe all mannerof unwomanly motives to women who seek enlarg ed opportunity lor their sex. If women see fit to use, in some worthy field ot labor formerly occupied by men, tal ents given them by their Creator, they lire denounced as In Jclicate, coarse and 'mannish but it they choose to lolil their hands in idleness, wutching for or obeying the behests of a "coming man," they are esteemed all thai is worthy, proper and good.

The world must go uo Or go doWii. The barbarians who made slaves and objects of lust merely of their women were right, or the reformers who demand pertoct legal eqnallty for the sex are true to civilisation. There is no Iwlf way gronnd. We dishonor woman while holding her in a state of legtl vnMMlnge. We dishonor Christian* »ty so lHig as we denv to her fair, equal and untramtnekni "opportunity With men in all the avocations ol life.

The cause for which me tt^bt is good and noble. After it Mule while the leaders in this movement will take their pl'tceq in the heart or history along with the heroic Mptrltswhonounded the battle-cry fbroenecience unl reminded by Uw^ lor civil liberty, for the education ni tiie onmtnon people, and for emancipation. Appreciating the parity ot our cause let us welcome to its standard uien and Fpipen of all manner of fkithend pnrpofce—-orthodox and beter»do* lew*, Christians and Unbelievers Free Lovers and matrimonial conw rvatives. There c^n lie no cause without unworthy follower*, We will not Judge too severely those who offer hands to help. If they be joMftri of more! heresies we will trust thai time and tree HLwnission will cure them. The radical Lin to which we are indebted for all thu la good and greet in our Hvivillsatlon has never dreaded free thought, because that which ta false will fall to the o«rth, and that which ta true will live fbrewr.

AT LAST.

After long years of waiting, sn aulhortative reoomrnendatlon from the President opens the way for removal of all political disability* ffvowing out of participation in rebellion. This is politic and just. President Grant's argument is sound and conclusive: ••I do not M« the advantage or propriety of excluding ini-n from oflice merely because they w»re before ihe ribeliion of *taudlng Mild ch .meter *uffl lent to tie elected to poMiIon* rt-qulilug them to lake the oath to miDPort the Constitution, and admitting to eligibility tln»*»- entertaining prei-l^ely the same views but ot lew Mttnding In their

muni tie*. It may le wild that the fO'm-violai»-d an oath while the latter did not The latter did not have It In lielr power to «lo!-o ir they had taken this oath It can not tie doubled that they would have broken it, as did the forme c)n*.

All honor to the President! Amnesty might have been accomplished earlier with safety but atter all, the time chosen may be the best. It was well to receive from the South positive assuranccM that the rights of the black men would not be imperilled by new revolutions before granting wholesale amnesty. There is little danger of this now. The colored vote is a political power. The tendency of the government is todiininish the qualifications of voters. The ballot has never been withdrawn from a large class of voters—it never will be. All efforts to make the elective franchise more exclusive have come to grief. Witness the merited lailure of thu Know Nothing organization in 1864.

America is becoming really great. She crushed a rebellion which hud the sympathy of more than half her people, and of nearly all Ihe governments in Christendom. She was brave enough to free the olack man in the midst of war. She has been true since to her foundation principles by sweeping from the ind the last legalized vestige or caste. In the interest of peace she has submitted her differences with foreign power to a compromise commission and abided by its dicision. She is meeting her immense pecuniary obligations honestly and fairly. She has settled the questions growing out of the war without sentence of one rebel to fine, imprisonment, or death and now she will add to her greatness by removing political disabilities, caused by participation in agiguntic folly, from every rebel in the land.

Burying old animosities, let the na tion go forward to higher and grander life.

ArtoftNitY GENERAL HANNA hnd hardly smoothed *bls wrinkled ^rijjftt after vanquishing the tblevmg hqurdes of Indianapolis before the New Albany Ledger brandished a red cloth before his eyes, in the shape of a halfgolumn of personal abuse. Never did murine quadruped rush more gallantly into action than our B. W. H. Hear him: "Tim New Albany Ledger is Raid to b« eminently plou*. Its olilul light, I understand, ha* taken order*, and regard* himself atinolnied to preach the Word. Hls .sacrt flees are said to be more gory than Ihe le** devout slauuhters of the ancient LevlUw In ihe matter of stealing smong the sons of inen. It is said that hethtr*t* to slay indl* oriinlnately, and that of such he *acrlllce* "to the Loril all that opeiu-th the matrix, being males." But tlier- he seems to letup, and there the wonder begin*. His theology Is as much a mystery as Ills law. Now Hi hie, now Koran half Christian and half Mohammedan. The strict letter ol the decalogue, and the stale tenets of the holy Apostle* he eschews. I should think he would mak^ a splendid capper for a faro bank, and that he would have swelled grandly a* a dead-beat newspaper correspondent on the platform of an undent Sanfifcdrin."

If the New Albany mm don't wither now it is because be ls*too callous to shrivel. Mr. Hanna don't tell us what newspaper this monster should have dead-heated for on the platform of the ancient Sanhedrin, but fnybody with hair an eye can see that the New Albany Ledger is the one referred to.

REPORT naa it mat the extensive purchase and leases of railroads in the Southern States, which were supposed to have been effected by parties con nested with the Pennsylvania Com pany, have turned out to be the work of an independent organisation, eontroled by Baltimore capital. It is said that over f7,000,000 h«v4 already been expended in actual ensty «nd[ up to the present time by the purchase of stock a controlling majority In a nam be of the most Important lines of railroads, comprising In all 1,485 miles, has been secured. Besides this, control Iras been obtained under a lease ot 398 miles additional.

MINERAL LEASES.

Agents of the Cincinnati A TerreHunte Railroad have obtained from several hundred land owners in Vigo,

No promise is made by this corporation that the land so leased will be mined at all. The deeds amount to an absolute conveyance of all the mineral wealth of the property leased as staed above. We hold that the consideration is insufficient. It amounts to nothing whatever, inasmuch as the railroad will be constructed regardless of the leases secured.

These

leases

The

an incumbrance upon the land from the first—an incumbrance that will become very burdensome in time. We doubt not that they will affect the saleable value of property very much. It is coming to be understood that there is vast wealth underlying the surface of the earth hereabouts, and the landowner who has placed his property in such shape that it may never be worked at all, is, to say the least, unfortunate.

conveyances named amount virtually to gifts of the subterranean property of several hundred farms to the Cincinnati A Terre-Haute Railroad Company. It would be well for land owners to distrust all attempts to secure mineral leases upon their property when no stipulation is offered that the property will be mined within a reasonable time,

THE prospects o' medical education for women are brightening. The medical faculty of Moscow, it is stated,have not only decided that the privilege of acquiring a thorough medical knowledge would be of utili'y to women, but have 'resolved to admit them to "the educational courses and lectures ***«f the UnAfters'tyW!"*?

THE edict of the Japanese government abrogating the position and powers of Dalmois, and absorbing their territories, is said to have been followed by serious troubles .n the southern part of the empire. The government, however, if previous reports are trustworthy, will be able to maintain its position without any considerable etnbarrasinent, some of the more Influential of the Daiinlos having already given In their cordial adhesion to the new policy.

"EVERYTHINK goes coiitrairey with "me," was a favorite remark of Mrs. Guminidge.

PRIVOE OF WALES.

The dispatches this morning announce that the condition ot the Prince ot Wales is the same as last ev-

Clay, Owen, Greene, Monroe, and other ening, and thafcno hopes are entertaincountles of this Stale, leases conveying ed of his recovery. His death will all ol the "coal, iron ore, clay, salines, leave the English throne in Jeopardy, "petroleum, limestone, building stone His son by his consort, the Princess "and all other lulnernla"—the consid- Alexandra, is now six years old. eration for these leases in each case Queen Victoria will not last until the being the sum of one dollar, a promise to construct within five years a railroad through the township in which the lands are iocated, or through he adjoining township, and a promise to pay ten cents per ton for all the coal, iron ore, cluy, salt, and limestone, and five cents per perch for every perch of building stone mined by the C. A T. H. Railroad. No period of expiration is named in these lenses, and they run, consequently, forever.

heir apparent has attained his majority, A Regency, or a Republic,is impending. Albert Edward, Pr nee of Wales, was born on the 9:h of November, 1841. There h*s been little of goodness or purity in his lire. He has shown not a glimmering of greatness. The best that can be said of him Is to say nothing.

THBGovernment did confllscsteour property, ruthW and cruel iy. Its abolition ol .slavery—no matter wnal the public pretext or civil policy or ultimate result—was a rapacious and lndl*crlminate universal spoliation. It would have been impossible under an empire, which would have been at least discriminating in its punishments, —Louisville Courier-Journal.

The uewspaper from which we quote would make the public believe that three hundred thousand men who owned slaves constituted the whole South. It ignores five million who were held as slaves, and whose souls and bodies were confiscated by the masters. Was there no wrong in that kind of confiscation The man who defends human slavery to-day, should be given a ister. The crack of his owner's whip would do more to convince him of the wrong of bondage than all the mora] lessons taught since the beginning of time.*

THE Society of Friends is displaying ui «al life of late. Quaker revival meetings have been held recently tn this State and in various parts of the East. This religion is conservative and antiquated in reference to creed and observance, yet it is radical in reference to all manner of reform. It was based upon the doctrine of fraternity, pe*ce and good will in the start, and steadfastness in this faith puts It in the van of progress to-day. Better faith than this may not be found in the here, or the hereafter on earth, or among the statt.

EVERY nook and comer ot Indiana has a Nobody who is particularly anxious to get nomiuated for some State office by one of the party conventions. Organized etferts are being put for ward already to influence powerful pol-

iticians who arf supposed to hold the

ege of foUowlng"*affthe laBottlWHIi .Hk.^ hollow of their Medlco-Chrirurgical Academy. The Emperor has also issued an order "th-.it Wbmen shall be instructed in "midwifery, and authorized them to "act as surgeous, to vaccinate, and be employef^as^hemis^

"hands. Office-seeking Is about as unpleasant and unprofitable an affcrcation asoanbe found in the laud, of the free and the homo of the brave.
