FRIDAY.. .MA11CH 14, 1873. THE IHATJGTJBAL ADDBESS. The President of the voting sex lias again spoken. The Inaugural Address, which is given in full in most of the men's journals, is a terse, able and sen sible production as far as it goes, but it only hints at one broad Republican idea that we should have been pleased to see treated with full recognition, although knowing his usual non-committal style upon matters not yet endorsed fully by his legal advisers who generally deal much more with law and precedent than with judgment or comprehension of ideas we did not expect it. That the President has a glimmer of the broad expanse over which Liberty is destined ultimately to preside, we gather from the following gleam of in spiration: "Ittfcmr Arm conviction tlint the civilized world In tending toward republicanism liv the people.and that our own great Republic Is des tined to ue uie zuraing Mar to an omens." It is idle to deny that women are "people," and it is equally idle to iguore them and domaud for the negro a "fair chance to develop what is in him." Hut politicians have endorsed the negro, and the President reflects their sentiment; they have not yet thoroughly endorsed the women, aud so he is not ready to rec ommend that they shall. Here is another gleam: "I believe our Kreat Maker l preparine 11 mmiM, in hi own rood time, one nation, speaking one language, and in which armies ami navtea will no longer be required." Looking further through the address, . we find that Indians, who are also en dorsed by politicians, are receiving a full share of attention. "We are pleased to quote as follows: 'Our superiority or strength and advantage of eivlllMtion should make us lenient toward the Indian. The wrongs already inflicted on hint should be taken Into account, and a bal ance placed to his credit. The moral view of the question should be considered, and the question asked: Can the Indian be madcanso ral aud productive member of society by proper teaching and treatment ? Xow, if women only were negroes or Indian, they would be of some conse quence. But stay! Iloreweare: l acknowledge before this assemblage, rep- raHniiBf u u noes every section oi me coun try, the obligation I am under for the creat Ikhhk- they have conferred upon me by return ing me to the highest office in their sift, and the further obligation resting on me to render the beat services in my power." Now, General Grant, the women of this Union, who acquiesced in your nomination and contributed by their energy and intellect 500,000 votes to se cure your re-election, aud who did this work gratuitously, because you repre sented a party that had given them a tplinler to stand upon in its National platform (which, being their only cltoiee, they unhesitatingly accepted), the women of this Union read your words aud say, "We hold you to your bargain, sir! You have an opportunity to crown your retiring years of public service with an honor as great, yea, greater far unto yourself than was con ferred upon the martyr-patriot, whose Emancipation Proclamation will shine forever with an unfading luster upon his fame aud name. You arc, indeed, under great 'obligation for the honor conferred upon you,' and wo shall await with deep interest your future ac tion upon your 'firm conviction that the world is tending to republicanism by theyeoplef in the hope that you will recommend to the next Congress tiie passage of a Declaratory Act, pronounc ing the majority of 'the people' of this so-called Itopublic entitled to an equal representation with the minority. This is the 'best service in your power to these people. Shall they be disap pointed?" "We are pleased to sec the manly good sense of the closing paragraph of the address, showing that the President is proudly ready to acknowledge his hum ble origin; and wc are also pleased to note that he is not indifferent to the many aspersions against his former character with which the public arc so familiar,ind which we rejoice to say his public life has proved him able to reform from and rise above: "I wm entirely without influence, or the ac quaintance of persons with Influence, lint was resolved to perform my ou-t in the struggle threatenltur the vcrv existence of the Nation. I performed it conscientiously ami without asKtnjc for promotion or command, and wltltout reveukeful feeling toward any section or Indi vidual. N'owHhstanding this, throughout the war, and from iny candidacy for my present oHJee la tgK to the clo-e of the last I'rcsldenlal eatnpalicn, I have been the subject of abuse awl slander scarcely ever equaled In political hMmjr, which , to-day, I feel I can afford to dis regard, in view of your verdict, which I grntc nlly accept as my vindication." When the President shall have done woman the justice for which she prays, she too may, like him, have opportunity to rise from a life of real or supposed dissipation ami "without asking for pro motion or command," have equal oppor tunities with such as himself to "per form" her "part" in every great Na tional necessity. A5SWEB3 TO CORRESPONDENTS. "W. II. K., Jacksonville: There Is a mistake, either with our books or your daughter. If the books are correct, she subscribed through a traveliug agent who received the per cent, asa premium that "public opinion stimulates In a woman a , iurmaurh. x wo jircmiumo iiuum uiuiu desire lor display and Idleness, and a rare and , .j .

The following editorial in a recent issue of the Jlerald'A decent and respectable opponent, by the way is worthy of more than a passing notice: If we mistake not it was Mrs. Ihiniway who. with much more truth than poetry, rcmarKeu she mleht have tronc a sten further to Innuire wnowatilic autiioranu riieriMiiiiK iw"" this same public opinion, which operate so injuriously to all the higher inlere-t of the sentler fx. It l not male public opinion that stimulates tno-e extensive anucxpensm- mmi strosltles In dress, which women cling to with such fashionable tenacity. The sweeping trails and the other nonsensical ausuruuie are mi suggested by a very foolish female vanity, and neither win the approval nor rcsiieet of the coarser vessel. If women would but return to the modest anil economical habits of their grandmothers, the complaint of "nothing to wear" would disappear, ami noioniy aomniw happiness, tint all the higher Interests which cluster round the domestic lionrd, would be materially benefitted. Wc think, if our brother would read up our cogitations half as closely as we read those from his pen, he would know, of a truth, that we have gone more than one "step further In our in quiries as to the cause of the fact he quotes. We sorrowfully admit the truth of every word he utters, and yet, while woman has no higher aspiration than dress, fashion and display; while the only property she can rightly ac cumulate aud own is clothes; and while she, like man, is naturally acquisitive, and fond of many possessions, it is not to be wondered at that she expends her taste and genius in "expensive mon strosities iu dress." "The sweeping trails aud other nonsensical absurdities" he mourns are an abnormal outgrowth of woman's cntramnielcd condition. It is worse than folly to talk about "re turning to the economical habits of our grandmothers" in these days, when the spinning wheel and loom are discarded for the sewing machine. Women must have employment, and since they are debarred by man from such political and pecuniary opportunities as he con siders indispensable to his own advan tage, they very naturally choose the oc cupation of personal adornment, witli which to gratify industry aud acquis itiveness. Man need not be so vain as to imagine that woman believes she gains his approval by'such employment; neither is she so foolish as to believe that his admiration is productive of any great good to herself when she se cures it only through self-abnegation. Sho merely means to acquire property because such acquisition is the ruling propensity of the age, and being de barred from other avenues of business, unless possessed of more than ordinary pluck and perseverance, by which she may carve for herself an honorable oc cupation in the teeth of ridicule aud misrepresentation, sho very naturally betakes herself to nifties, panniers, Jew elry and other nonsense to employ her mind and quiet her ambition. Women of business are not disposed to cxlrav agance in dress; neither do they spend more time upon their toilet than busi ness men, but while men find such oc cupations readily, if possessed of brains and perseverance enough to engage in them, women, no matter what their nat ural or acquired qualifications, are, as a general thing, "detained, hand and foot" from earning or amassing other prop erty, and hence arises their exhaustive monstrositiesoflmaginationaboutdre.. Will our contemporary take notes? some people cling to the Idea that they must bo paid for taking a paper. The only inducement a publisher has for of fering premiums is the expectation that people will try to extend their circula tion, yet wc find that those who are most eager for premiums are those who work least for the paper. Go pay your own subscription one year aud then order the paper sent to some other name that you may thereby secure a premium on two subscriptions without benefiting the publisher may be fuu for subscribers but it is death to the paper if acquiesced in. Wc want all women to understand that they are quite as much interested in the New Northwest as wc are, and while we can and do pay premiums to catmuMre, or those who renew and send one or more new subscribers, we cannot give premiums for the payment of old debts.

Women will carry over to the future a patriotism torn of adversity and trial, more intense and purer than that of the past. Their love of country is filial and thereforo inextinguishable. Tho prin ciple of patriotism strikes root far down in the tender conscience of woman and its bloom will expand into a holy passion, and the luscious fruit ripen into deeds of love aud mercy for the weal of the land. The alloy of selfishness corrodes and burns away in the crucible, and her patriotism "Comes forth conquering and to conquer." But thoso who remain steadfast must be willing to suffer mar tyrdom In the great contlict now pend ing, by crucifying everything that has a tendency to hinder progression. We advocate the system of Human Hight, and upon that doctrine, or the establish ment of Woman Suffrage, depends the case. When she first annlied to Henry 15.
