BEFORE THi COM MITTEE OS PalVILKGKH AND ELECTIOlOi OF THE CNITEH STATES SKUATK, JASI AKY 11 AND 12. ISTX. MAKV A. STEWART. Mr. Mary A. Stewart, of Delaware, aaid: Honorable Gentlemen: I have only few words to say, my State being small, I being: one of tbe "JJlue lien's" elilcK en. But as this tliiug seems to be un popular, as tbe Senate teems to be afraid to touch tbe question, thinking It may break up a party, probably, I will bay 8omt-thiug in regard to tbe subject. Ami what has Delaware done in tbe last ten or fifteen years? Prior to that lime our laws were sueii that a Dela ware woman was' nothing more nor less than a slave. As one of our "number not long eincesaid. of a colored domestic, "She was born a slave and en was I." When President Lincoln issued his proclamation, tbe slaves were all made free. I do not know that I am any more free for it, but I know I am just as well off without them as with them. Senator Hill. Better, I suppose? Mrs. Stewart. I suppose so. Prior to fifteen years ago, the male heir, the oldest male heir, had the right of suc cession to property. When the father died, tbe oldest male heir took the right of succession, aud bought the home af fairs for whatever they were worth; tbe rest of the family bad to take wbat they I could get, especially the females. That was the first law toward woman's rights, but it made a howl in our State. The man who Introduced that bill didn't get any blessings from them. Then the women concluded that the) ought to have a right to hold the bonds, mortgagee, stocks, etc., that their lath ers had left them. So tbey weut to the legislature and asked if a woman couldn't have tbe right. Of course we bad to send a man to represent as, but I didn't like such representation. There was a woman, anyway, , at the bottom of It, awl she sent a man to the leglsla- tureto know if she could not hold the hoods and mortgages that she helred i from her father. Tbe legislature was ready to answer woman, and they passed a law that a woman should hold her' bonds and mortgages and moneys and real estate as a married woman, but that she should not transfer them without the written consent of iter husband, and she should not sell them. Women were not satisfied with that. Tbe next legislature tbey went with their sleeves rolled up, and said, "Xow, here, we want this thing scrubbed right down to a floe point, and we don't want 'without hie consent' put in." The leg islature heard the appeal and gave them the law. Then woman had no right to make her will. She could not even will her watch tbat her father gave her, and where it was to go after her death, she could not tell. Well, women concluded that tbey wanted to make a will some of them did and they went to tbe leit lature to see if tbey could have the right to make a will, aud the gentlemen list ened. Tbey gave her the right to mnke a will "any married woman, after the passage of this act, shall have the right to make a will, provided she has the written consent of her husband with two responsible witnesses thereunto at tached." My, oh, my! Tbat was get tiog a thing done uloe. The law came out, and it was well tbey were all married before tbe passage of this law, and I said to them all, "You get married over again." I said, "Why do you waut these 'two responsible wit nesses?'" Tbey don't waut to bother around that way. The next legislature met, dud the women weut for them gam. They went and asked if they could not be allowed to make a will. It was a small thing, ami tbe legislature said, "Any married woman can make a will" giving any married woman the right to make a will. Tbe next thing, we had one college in Delaware. It was shut up for a good while, and tbe ladies began to murmur. Tbey didn't like to pay taxes and the money used upon the college, ami then have the girls excluded. So tbey began to talk about it. It was not long before tbe ponderous jaws of the college were opeued to women. Each member of tbe general assembly has the right to send one girl or boy free of expense. This is an excellent law to educate our poor voting population. We have a great many divorces in our State. (Interrupted by a member of the committee). Xever mind my friend from Delaware, he has never been troubled with a divorce. One poor womau weut before the legislature and asked for a divorce.. She bad left her husband two years before. She had ac cumulated about $100 in the hands of Iter employer, .,. that vagabond of a husband laid an injunction upon that money and would not allow her to col lect it; and the laws of the State f un aware WOUld not let Iwr unnl...... It to Tier, because she was her bu...:,n,r8 slave, and nothing more, although -ie had been taking care of herself and clu. dren for two or three years. She came ' to me ami aneu me wntt to do do, and I said, "Get a divorce." She went be fore tbe legislature, and the legislature granted her a divorce at once, after con sidering her trials and what she had done. And I said, "Xow, let the man jtay the money and the other get it if he can; I will trust it to the bench." And she got it out of his hands, aud the vagabond never troubled her. Then tbe legislature thought they must pass a law protecting that woman and all the women in the State. It was per fectly right. They passed a law, and , tbesubstauceof it is this: "Any married woman leaving her husband aud ac- cumulating property during the separa tion shall hold said property, shall sue aud be sued, shall give transfer-deeds aim uoiu oonas ana mortgages, us they shall see fit." But a little more legislation: "Hut if she returns to the said huauaiiil. the property accumulated shall go into his hands an though they never were sepa rated" very like as though they were hiring the wbman to stay away. I toIJ the general assembly she ought to stay away. In ten or fifteen years we have made progress step by step,' a ml what we waut to-uay is loryou to give us tue uinoceui ballot, that equalizes ami levels without spilliBg blood. borne say we do not kuow now to use the ballot. I say we are as competent to handle the bullot as the colored man when he got it; aud I say this from per sonal experience aud observation. Joe, a colored man in my employ, said to ma, "Can I goto the polls?" l saiu, "Certainly. Joe. co to the noils;" aud I said, "Joe, If they let you vote twice, do It, and n they wou't let you vote ouce, oome home." Joe went there, and he came home and be said he voted. He said "The Democrats poked a piece of paper at me, and 1 said, '2o, sir, l kuow what. I am doing.'" I said to Joe, "What did you do?" and he said he knew what lie did; and 1 said, "joe, what did you do ?" He said he voted for the little piece of paper that be paid for; and I said. "Why, Joe, you voted vour tax-receipt." I felt sorry for him the first vote. Joe said, "I kuow what I paid for, and I voted It." He said he naid $2 60 or $2 75 for it. Aim! now, give us the ballot and we wilt have sense enough to vote what we pay for, and if we don't, vote anything else, don't you blame us lor it. Some say that "we should be terribly put down," that we should be equalised with the negro; and some say that they cannot bear the Idea of tiieir wives go ing to the polls with the black mau Passing through my native country, I hannened tostonatoue farmer's house. a well-to-do fanner. The subject of Woman Suffrage came up. bald l, 'How are you on the subject?" He said be was opposed to It. I said I wus sorry, aud asked him why? "I never waut my wife to go to tile polls Willi a negro," was hU reply. I said to his wife, "Sarah, who washes Dan's (the negro) clothes?" "1 do," she said "Who eooks Dan's victuals?" "I do,' she said. "Who washes his dishes?1 I do." site said. I said, "It Is iwcullnr you cannot go fifteen or twenty steps to the polls with a negro, then." And 1 turned to the husband and said, "What do you think of that for mixing?" 1 think it is a base Injustice upon your wives, sisters, aud daughters to withhold tbe ballot. I do notelaim the ballot as a right, but as justice. I want even-handed justice dealt out. We de serve it and we must have it. In 1S71 I paid to the United States and State of Delaware, aud all other taxes on mortgages, the sum of $315 45, aud never had a vote. I do not pretend to say mat congress is wrong; nut upon tbe shores of a foreign land is a man that 1 do not know ever oast a ballot in tbe ballot-box in his life. He was born upon English soil, was proud of the iMigilsu lanu, came into our state, ami where do we fee htm next 7 He was not naturalized two years before he re ceived a foreign appointment as consu to one ot the islands, ami your honorable Senate confirmed the appointment, aud to-day he Is resting in ttie downy uest you made for him. Is that Justice to me or any woman of the United States who calls herself born woman of the soil ?

Give it to me; It Is all I ask. Continued next week. Women. Perhaps one reason why women bearahilction as I believe they generally do better than the men, Is because they make no attempt to fly from tbe cause of it, but betake them selves patieutly to the duties, however painful, whleh they are to perform. It is the old emblem of the reed aud the oak. They bend, ami therefore they are not broken; and then comes peace of mind, which is the fruit of resignation. SouOtey't IAe. George Eliot's face is long aud pale, with a sensitive mouth. Her eyes are a vivid, warm, blue-gray, lull of depth, now keenly perceptive, now dreamily introspective, always full of sadness. Her hair, worn low, gives a womanly effect to a finely intelligent forehead. Her general expression is thatof a wear ied oeusitiveuess. Captain Bobstay, shrewd old fellow, calls a sneeze a head wind. Tbe pleasure of doing good is the only one that never wears out. AGENTS I'Olt THE XEVT NOItTIIWIiST.
