ushered in of " peace on earth and good
will to man." But man has a positive
psychological influence over woman, which,
when wo consider his general selfishness, is
very discouraging to tho most daring re
former. Few there are indeed who can
withstand tho flood of public opinion. But
the time, metliinks, is uow at hand when
that few should unfurl their banners to the
breeze, uud stand forth upon principles, not
policies. Where are they who will throw
themselves positive to approbutive sensi
tiveness, and stand forward to plead the
cause of woman and reform, aud encourage
their sisters to stand boldly from the ranks
ol custom upon a platform of true princi
ples ? Under present influences, woman
cannot make a tuck in her dress without
consulting the favor of man. Whut dowu
right tyranny is this influence which causes
in glory or in humility. And, in short, as l,oiso" of tt sophistical falseness. Such
were me mi verso auspices ot Luvours po
litical birth, and these he successfully over
came by tho unflinching perseverance of
his spirit. The ignorant misapprehension
of the public was gradually corrected by the
experience of the. senate, and during the
perilous times of ISIS and 1M9 Count Ca
vour found occasion, in debates momentous
to his country's safety, to unfold the ntlini
rablc temper of his talents, and step by step
to acquire the esteem of his fellow citizens.
And now his pcrsonul influence is of an in
tensity rivaling the sort of influence once
exerted by Mazziui. All the legislation
which lias distinguished Piedmont in the last
ten years all the policy itlws pursued nil
tho public works of stupendous magnitude
it has raised in short, evervthimr connect
ed with the present state of the country
presents itself to the mind its the deed of
favour's inspiration. The result is, that
the limn, once so decried und aspersed, is
now honored with perfect devotion. Vit
torio F.niniHiiuelc commands the sincere re
spect of Italy; but Cavour commands its
unhesitating faith. His name, grown to be
a household word in every hamlet, except
in some remoter provinces of Xnples, has
become an orgnnizution4.br the liberal party
in place of the (.'arbonnri bund, nud Cavour
has now uecu elevated to that pedestal on
the health of the body depends upon good
digestion, so the health ot a paper tlepeuds
upon tho vigorous digestion which goes on
by means of ollicc editors.
Ought they not to bo honored? And
since little fume attends them, they should
at least have their creature comforts multi
plied. From that dark und dismal den in
which they have so long had purgatorial
residence they lire at length translated I

Xcw York Times writes:
dipt. Jerome Bonaparte, who lately re
turned to France from a reit to his parents
at Baltimore, has been placed in the most

And so it proved, for the next day the
gentleman bought nearly all his fruit and
vegetables of Harry, but never invested
another penny at the stand of his neighbor.
Thus the season pusscd; the gentleman find
ing ho could always get a good article of
Harry, continually patronized him, and
sometimes talked with him n few minutes
about his future hopes und prospects. To

V' The lUxhls t Women.
y'R. Eiutob: I find by examining the
laws of Oregon that they are more liberal
-than I supposed regarding the rights of
woman; yet I shall contend for equal rights
ju property. A woman is an individuality
S well as a man, and until she naturally
arad voluntarily surrenders that individual
afy .to another, she has the right to protect
herself, and to demand protection from thc
" " powers that be." Woman, in law, should
kTe equal privileges with man, for is it
teat plain, if she does not voluntarily con
Tie to her husband the risht to manotre
) J business, that her natural rights are in
tiged npon ? Where there is trae aflec
Vjo between man aud wife, there u no dif
JLvlty in this matter; but a vast majority
fit marriages are merely circumstantial, and
it is a well-known fact that woman bears a
greater proportion of the burden of con

Cabinet at Turin, would be enough to muke
the moderate liberal party throughout Ita-

on perfectly level ground, Which he did with
ease, and it was the opinion of till present
that he could have cleared two or three feel
more had he desired." Way jumps with
great apparent ease, and strikes his marks
with the utmost precision, seeming to make
at every jump whatever distance he names.
In addition to the above, he cleared twenty
