amount of land newly sown to grain.
They have plenty of ram this year to
start not 01 ly the grain in the ground,
but to insure the growth of the trc< s

men, permit me tu make u few brief re-
marks : Would » young mm buy a

white
steed and gallop um ay on ¡Sabbath
morning, were there no women m the
world ? Would u young man toil early
and late 1 » buy a lot, build a house,
have it richly furnished, the honey-
biiciile 1 wmnig about the marble pillar
of tne veranda, were there no women?
Would there have been any churches
built with their spires pointing upward
—ns it were,to the vtiy clouds- with the
bell Bending out its loud peals to call ’
people io wor. hip G >1, had there been
no women ? 1 Would -here have been
any towns or ■ cities built, bad tilt Ye
been uo women ? Would there have
been so many fashions, arts and
sciences, of whidh wo see so much iu
our large cities, had there been no
women ? V- ouiu there have been any
cultivation of cotton uud sugar cane, of
Winch v.e iuiik-> so much use, had there
been no women ? M ould there have
been any t xplormg for silver and gold
or traversing the quick Bauds of ¿bo
