THE extreme cold of the winter of Iceland reduces the system of domestic ventilation in that country to very primitive principles. A late traveler there was so choked one night by the close atmosphere ot the air-tight little chamber in which he slept with all the male members of the family, as to be compelled to awake his host who sprang out of bed at the call, pulled a cork from a knot-hole in the wall for a moment and then, hastily replacing tho cork with a shiver, returned to his slumbers, ^ggggggggggmm^

Hon. GKRKIT SMITH, the New York Reformer, has written a letter, taking the ground that it is the good citizen's "first doty to keep down the Democracy"—"the Democracy of these degenerate days the bastard Democracy which tramples upon the holy rights of men."

Mr. Smith's conclusion on the temperance question is: "I view as absurdities all Local Option laws, and License tows, and Civil Damages, and I would have every Instance of drtrakoTmewi regarded as a voluntary and responsibleinaanity, and, therefore, to be punished several,}'."

THE season of 1874 has, so fltr, been a marvelous one in the trotting world. The time vttde in the many contest* during tae SunKOer meetings compels a complete change of op time-tables. These surprising performfcnccs show the grand improvement made in the trotting horse of the preeeaVdaj, attributable, no doubt,to improvement in traoka, sulkies, the mode of shoeing, and in breeding and training. We do not hesitate (says the Turf, Field

WOMEN AS, ORGANIZERS. Oommentloi on the diaraj4ion of the GoodfetasaarUan awfet? to OWcafotta© Timeeof that city Is led to «eme rather innonnipllninq^ify remarks of the #wulty of women for united and organised action to any direction. It sum* up the history of woman movement* everywhere as developing bickering at the very fintueettqg, increased asperttyat the second, and at the third or fourth a general scolding, rupture andsmash-up and adds: "It, is the hardest thing imaginable, evidently, for a woman to sit, flame and suffocating smoke. The rooms still and hear another woman oppose her, without break tug in with an imp*.** tinent comment. This, the first principle of all parliamentary law, that no speaker out be interrupted without his consent, will never be accepted, to the letter, by feminine "deliberative" bodies. To "lip in" and "eass back," will be the Scylla and Charybdia, twlxt which no feminine association can continuously steer, so long aa women are women."

This seems like rather a harsh Judgment and we may be permitted to suggest aa a mltlg?t'"ff circumstance that women have not hud much experience yet in the parliamentary affairs. If their assemblies and congresses are not characterised by that calmness, patienoe and Indian-like stolidity in the ihee of an opponent's arguments, that pervade the masculine parliament let us not that the members who domposo the latter are the lineal descendants of Pitt, Burke and Sheridan and have inherited their faculties for debate from genera tions of able debaters, while, on the the other hand, those who sit in the assemblies of women are the posterity of queens of the paxlor and drawing-room —the social gossipera of as tyng a period In the one body ls stored up theaccu inula ted parliamentary experience of centuries in the other the informality and impatience of the social conversation running parallel to all this. If the products are different we have no right to be surprised. Very much of what we are is due to inheritance and training. Hie business of speaking in public and of conducting deliberative assemblies is as new to women as it is old to men, We might not expect the former to do so well as the latter, in fact should not be surprised if they make some blunders at first.

We are of tlfose who have faith in the ultimate achievements of wdmen and should not wish unnecessarily to discourage them in their efforts to do good. There are social and charitable works which it is their peculiar province and prerogative to carry forward. They have done much in these directions and wc are confident that they will do much more. True, they may make blunders, may display an excessive amount of that feminine impatience and combativeness which are not conducive' to publio deliberations, but it would-be the part of charity to attribute these rather to a lack of experience, as we have suggested, than to any inherent deficiency in the lbminino constitution disqualifying it lbr ultimate success in t.hig field. We cherish the hope that the time will yet come when the Dorcas Sewing Society will maintain its integral existence to a venerable age and the Union for Social and Moral Improvement witness no secession of any of its members for an immemorial period. In short we believe that woman's faculty for discussion and deliberation will be found capable of development.

STATEMENTS.

One is appalled at the number of "statements" that havo been made in th« business, when they are grouped together as has thus been done by the New York Herald

Mr. TOton has Wade anotner Statement. which we print to-day. Mr. B«eeher has made a statement. Mr. Moulton has made three statements. The Committee hasmade what it has the audacity to tall a decision, but which ia really nothing but a statement. General Morris has made a number of statements. Mr. Tracy has made a statement about Mr. Moulton's statement and about himself. Susan B. Anthony has made a statement. So have a number of other old women. Mr. Shearman has made a statement. Brother Raymond made a very important statement— vis: that to attack Mr. Beecheg is to attack the throne of God itself. Miss Procter has made a legal statement. Elizabeth has made several statements.

Bessie

has made some shocking statements, which, as usual, are Urewncilahle With each other or with truth. Mrs. Morse has made a statement. Samuel Wllkeson has made a statement briefly, but forcibly refetriftg to the "Life of Christ." Mr. Carpenter has made a

FEMALE SUFFRAGE 13 SWITZERLAND. The experiment of admitting women to the franchise, and even to the exercise of still mora important f»l!tloal functions, is about to be tritd in the Canton otmmft, line of the ffiiallest, sed ptee onectf the meat ultramontane divisions of tbe Swiss confederation.

The concession la probably founded lass upon tbe prindpies of^batrart JUJK tioo «|«a» upon a desire on the part or the Grand Cmn«ll to perpetuate the ascendancy of the ultramontane party In the canton, the women of Schwyne being, like some of their stetjrs atoewhew, notoriously under the

THE FALL RIVER J5rOJLRO.fi. It la Impossible to belkrve that nobody Was responsible tar the dreadftd loar of life which oeeoirred at th£ burning of tho Granite cotton mill, at Fall River, Mai*, last Saturday. Tbe aoeno was one that no language can portray, A great six story building, made of rtone without, It la true, bat with its floors saturated with grease, and every room filled with greasy looms and spindles, catches fire in one of the lower rooms, and In a tow moments the whole Interior Is a mass of

above are $led with girls and women who have hardly begun tlw work of the day when the terrihie alarm Is sounded the funeml knell of many of them. Then comes tbe wild panic, the buntfiag of tbe stifling smoke up the stairways, the crackling of tho devouring flames, driving the terrified laborers to the windows for air to breathe. But the air that supports their lives a little longer lures the flames on but the foster, and soon it is evident that some method of escape must be found or all must perish. In the madness of their terror some fling themselves from the windows to the ground below, only to be mangled and crushed to death by the fell. Ropes are let down but one Is broken by the struggling mass that clings to it while the others are licked up by the flames, and a score of women and children still remain to be suffocated and charred to cinders in the awftil fbrnace,

The horror of the scene could only be equalled by the burning of a abip atseia. In the latter case we can understand the difficulty, perhaps impossibility, of providing certain security against such disasters, but in the case of buUdingson the land, and isolated buildings too, a mill or a factory standing alone and separated from others, it is certainly nothing else than criminal negligence which prevents some sure escape from fire being provided. To imprison hnndreds of wo* men and children in such a death-pen with no avenue of escape in case afire should break out, is simply murder, And the fact that no great expense would be required to provide such an escape, puts the matter in all the worse light. While tke granite walls are being erected, it would not cost much more to build in them a stone-inclosed iron stairway, extending from bottom to top of the building. This, entered from each room by an iron door, to be used only in cases of emergency, would afford a never-foiling exit in case of fire, and wduld make impossible any such horror as that of the Granite Mills. This is merely thrown out as a suggestion, There might be better and cheaper methods devised, perhaps, but what we insist on is that some means of security against such catastrophes should be employed, so that such disasters may be avoided.

It seems, however, that public senti mant and the indignant outbursts against the penuriousndss of mill and mine owners, which are made at eveiy recurrence of these catastrophes, have little effect in increasing the safety of fnines and factories. What is necessary and what ought to be resolutely demanded, is the enactment and enforcement of laws which will compel capitalists to protect the lives of their employes. Un til this is done, we may expect in the fu ture a repetition of the disasters of Fall River and Avondale

AD VANCED*&PIRITUALISM ANT) FREE LOVE. The Pittsburg(N. Y.) Sentinel, of last week, gives the following information concerning the plans of tho new community to be founded, according to report, on Valcour Island in Lake Champlain:,«

The Society or 'Advanced Spiritual ists,' or Free Lovers of Chicago, numbering one hundred or more, with whom the general convention of Spiritualists, of which Woodhull is President, will assemble this month, have determined to seek some locality where their peculiar ideas can be carried ont in all their fullness, unmolested by the unbelieving and cruel world. Through the 'munificence,' as they are led. to believe, of the somewhat notorious Owen Shipman, they have been Enabled to purchase his form of tight hundred acres on Valcour Island, and there they propose to establish a community, known as the Valoour Community, and similar to the Oneida Community, in the central part of New York State, only more advanced and liberal in its practices. As anuclens, in the centre of this island they propose to build twelve houses, exactly MikeTto be occupied by twelve groups, according

BOOKS NEWSPAPERS,

T0th» Editor of The Mall: It may perhaps be

in the

cannot refrain from saying

something in reply to Mr. "Husks aad Nubbins" article, "Too much Newspaper Reading*"

Now, we admire "Husks and Nut* bins" aa a bold and vigorous thinker aodsmooth ami graceful writer but we do not always agree with hltn, and to some poinLfpof the article in question we beg leave to make objection. During the pest ten or twenty years the New*papers have been gradually increasing an influence that has lessened the sale of books to a great extent. Why? Because the Newspaper la cheap and the book is dear. Because a year's subscription to the former is but little more than the cost of the latter, containing |ts contents and a great deal of varied in formation interesting to the general reader and not found in the books.

What lathe nsc of paying a dollar and a

half for a paper bound novel, when for three dollars one can have for a year paper like the New York Semi-Weekly Tribune, which gives three or four of the choicest novels of the day, besides lectures, travel, history, science, various kinds of essays—some of them not in forior to Eniopsgn, ntrwte from all parts of tbe world, and various other matters of Interest. All this is offered for little more on a whole year's subscription than the price of a simple book. Several years ago we wanted to buy books enough to complete a modest library and waited anxiously for them to oome with in our means as we thought they would They did hot, and we gave it up and so turned to the newspapers for solace found it, and, after a time became wean ed from the desire to buy books at high prices. We do not see as H. and N. asserts that the "sensational drivel" is al together confined to the newspapers. It can be found in many books as well as newspapers and in this the buyer gen erally "pays his money and takes his choice." We confess to a weakness for books but, whether we could now break the strong chain the newspaper has wound about us is doubtful.

The Newspaper is the great democratic educator and civilize? of the day and age. It seems to possess all the advantages of speedy circulation, convenient disposal with great variety of information and above all that cheapness so much desired by the masses.

Those publishers who met to devise some means to recuperate the foiling book trade, might have done better by remaining quietly at home and making a reduction in prices instead of plotting to devise some way to make large profit with but half the work. If they do not do this it is probable that they will be driven finally to the wall by their powerful adversary the Newspaper.

HARMONS, IN®.

R.

•/J :. As the semi-annual bridal season is at hand, it is the time to plead for a reform in weddings. Every year this saoredest of all occasions is turned more and more into a mere opportunity for display, and for replying to some fancied social obligation. Instead of the time when a few of the closest friends gather to witness the solemnest compact human beings can frame, it is chosen as the moment for bringing together the larger part of a family's social circle, to show the bride in her bridal garments to prove how many flowers and refreshments the family can afford and, with shame be it said, to exhibit to criticism and light comment the precious tokens that should have come with tender regard to the maid on the eve of her new Dfe.

A wedding must not be uncheerful but it must certainly be solemn to all who realize what it is. On the one side, it is renouncing old ties, promising to begin with faith, and hope, and love a new and wholly untried existence. On the other, it is the acceptance of a sacred trust, the covenant to order life anew in such ways as shall make the happiness of two instead of one. Can such an occasion be fltting for revelry? Is it not wiser, more delicate, to bid only the nearest of friends to a marriage ceremonv, and leave the feasting and frolic for a subsequent time? We are sure there are few girls who, if they reflect on the seriousness of the step they are about to take, will not choose to make their vow merely within the loving limits of their home circle. All our best instincts point to tho absolute simplicity and privacy of wedding services only a perversion of delloncv oould oontemplafo the asking of crowds of half-sympathetic or wholly curious people to attend the fulfillment of the most solemn of contracts. Let there be as much party-making, rejoioio« and pleasure-taking afWv/ard aa hearts desire but let the solemn vows be made in the presence only of thpee nearest and dearest—t"Home and Society Scribner's for October.
