Tbo 13errienHpringa Journal (Tilden) Las a
apaamof senso" and discourses as follows
on the text of the refusal of the Democratic
Convention to place Judge Cooloy'a name at
the head of its State ticket :
Tbe difficulty with that party in this State
is, they persist in making efforts to elect a
tickot wbou it is impossible to do so, and
always act bullheaded when they have a chance
to win. A notable example of this was in 1874,
when they could have swept the State and
elected a United States Senator. Tbe opposi
tion tot irantism would have done this, if it
bad been left alone. But it was encumbered
with a lot of old superannuated wet nurses
who controlled the Democratic Btate Conven
tion at Kalamazoo."
In 177G there wero 23 public libraries in tbe
Vi colonies, containing 15,623 volumes ; in 1800
these had increased to iO libraries, with 80,000
volumes. In 1876 there were in the United
States S.G8-2 public libraries, with 12.27C.9C1
volumes and 1,500,000 pamphlets, it is a
noteworthy fact that of these libraries enly
seven, containing 123,158 volumes, are in the
quondam slaveholdiug states. Common school,
church and Sunday school libraries are not in
cluded in the above. Tbe census of 1870 shows
that there were 10,000,000 volumes in the
church and school libraries, and tbe partia
returns gave 25,571,503 volumes in private
libraries. It is safe to say that there are 50,
000,000 volumes in the public and private libra
rios of tbe United States.

At a meeting of tbe " Detroit Home Associ
ation," organized for the purpose of providing
a borne for women aud girls temporality out of
employment and needing friendly assistance,
Mr. J. Ik II. Hratshaw, ueiug asked to address
tho meeting, said :
Tbe bebt government mortal man could make
would be founded on virtue and intelligence,' in
which view bo thought it unjust that a woman,
a teacher of crcat truths, like the late Mrs.
Sigouruey, for example, should be debarred
from participating in tbe business of legisla
tion, wbile a man, uttrrly ignorant, wholly
wanting iu tbe moral eonse a drunkard, per
haps wields a potent iniluence in the affairs
of government. Let there be light in tbe mind
of every parent presont. He did not pretend
to le an Instructor, but be knew his own faults
and follies and wantod to remedy them. The
tuioducated woman baa just two ways of ob
taining a livelihood. Tbe one is to marry for a
home; the other be would not mention. Let
parents know that they tdiould never raise a
child w it bout givintrit tbe knowledge to inde
pendently Bupport itself, whether it be son or
daughter. Everybody has a pride in a self
sustaining woman, who realizes that true inde
pendence is to earn her own living, and to con
trol her own resources. Want of self-sustaining
power drives her to a questionable fate, to
say tbe least. It would be k'h'rious if it could
be said that tne women of this nation were so
educated as to bo not only independent of
husband, father or brother, but an actual help
to them. He pictured the woes of the young
woman lett without a home or friends, aud
closed bv saving: If vou want pure women
educate them to work. If you want pure men
elevte and educate tho women. If you want
a great nation elevate and educate tbe mothers.
Judgo Koilly, of the Wayne Circuit Court,
was tbe next spaakcx. He said that Michigan,
! with all her lioasted charities, was yet bebiud
j tho limoa. There are many excellent institu
i tioDd in the State for tbe reformation of boys

tho P'Ml;idd pi;a Inquirer :
' I'lm President V graceful and acoomplishod
manner of saying No this is tbe great secret
of -ll cuere-Mfal d;j lomaey. It makes so little
noiBC 'i working its wonders of reform. An
amrry ho. a too decided No, an unreasonable
No. wont cf all an ungracious No. Las ront
governments iu twain, made bitter enemies of
deuotl frends, robbed denial of all its virtue.
Hut ap.raciouH. timely, reasonable No. wbicb
lookn and sounds precisely like itself, ouly

rowed charm of es tbH is the No which is
touch is contamination. If, on the other hand,
a boy is convicted of a miuor o Hen bo, be may
be transferred to tbe Kcform School lor a term
of years, and thcro educated to support him-
; self by some honorable employment when bis
j terra of sentence shall have expirod. Why tho
people of Michigan aro so far behind the times
in their treatment of erring girls, be could nor.
say. but the fact remains thattbey aro disposed
of" in a manner which sivors very strongly of
brutality. A woman arrested on the siroet for
sotno potty crime ib taken to a station-house

load of convicted criminals. No helping band,
I no word of kindness is extended to her. Yet
if the prisoner m a boy instead of a girl, the
State opens its charitable arms aud heart, and
j devotes all its onergieH to tho work of his ef
! fectual reformation. Tbo speaker was inclined
' to believe that women wero more severe in
i their treatment of fallen womanhood than are
j the men. if a man falls from grace bis fellow
I men aro ready and witling to raiso him up. but

Fnncess Louise, Marchioness of Lorne, is, it
is reported, a firm believer in spiritualism.
Dom Pedro was represented by bis daughter

Her hpeecn was brief and to tbe point.
A. F. Fisher, better known as l oos Fuher,
a Virginian billiardist of note, bas been ad

President Hayes' family coneists of bis wife,
four sons and a daughter. One of bis son,
Rutherford, Jr., and Grant's boy, Jesse, are
classmates at Cornell, and intimate friends.
Simon Cameron is said to put $100 in bis
pocket tbe first of every month to give away to
poor acquaintances and dependents. He is
especially mindful of shiftless printers and
country editors.
Mrs. Myra Clark Gaines wishes woman could
vote. She says: A woman's instincts are
much better than a man s logic. She may
make a fuss about little things, but in any
great emergency she is always on the right
side."
Mrs. Patton, whose death occurred in Brook
lyn, recently, sailed the ship Neptune's Car
from Cape I lorn to San Francisco, twenty
years ago. Her husband, tbe captain, was sick ;
the crew mutinied ; she leveled a revolver at
them, and made tbe men take the ship safe
into harbor.
Much is expected in social circles in Wash

new Secretary of tbe Interior department, as
tbe will probably preside over ber father's
household. She is an accomplished musician
and fine linguist. There is a younger daughter,
educated in Kuropo, and also bizlhy accom
plished and very attractive.
Six of Mrs. Hayes' old classmates happened
to be living at Washington at the time of the
inauguration, and possessed their school badg
es. They bad the badge copied In buds and
blossoms and sent it to the President's wife
with their cards, and tbe next day Mrs. Hayes
sent for ber old friends and held a society re
union in tbe "White House parlors.
Rev. W. II. Murray doesn't believe that Mr.
Moody's inquiry meeting is any place for a boy.

adds : " Tbe boys who attend these meetings
will. I suspect, be the worst boys in tbe city ten
years from now, unless God intervenes to
save them. They are being fed with such rich
food that they will dislike tbe taste of it in ten
years."
Wendell Phillips says of George, the brother
of Charles Sumner: "An Engliohman came
to Rome and was anxious to know whether
there was in the library of tbe Pope, the great
library of tbe Vatican, a certain book. Tbe
library is vast and there is no catalogue. The
I gentleman went to the Italians. They referred
bim to tbe private secretary of one of tbe
cardinals, and tbe f ecretary answered : 'I don't
know : but there is a young man in this city
from Boston, and if the book is there be will
know. They went to George Sumner and
asked bim if taere was such a volume in tbe
library. 'Yes: it is in tbe tenth alcove, the
third shelf, the seventh book to tbe right as

Detroit, March 20 1877.
Mm. John J. Uaalev and other ladies :
Tbe subject referred to in your circular ncte
has my sincere sympathy, and I bid you God
nnaed in vour worthy work. If men who thro'
intemperance (groos and wretched sometimes
hT made themselves castaways, are received
whn thev turn from thir evil ways with plau
dits and rejoicing back into society (as they
should be), why should not poor, friendless
girls, who stand yet more than men in need of
sbHter and encouragement, be ahomade tbe
nubjects of social fcobcitnde and care? And
exneciallv wben we remember bow severely
utM-n in thft iniimont or most women ou such
of tbir own sx as mav (because - they loved
much') have innocently slipped and fallen,
does it seem right that tbey who stand secure
in their virtue should kindly throw uo fortifica

Tho many friends of Miss Alta M. llulett,
late of this city, will be pained to learn of ber
sudden death, which occurred at San Diego,
California, laet week of quick consumption.
Miss llulett was a lawyer, and bad benn prac
ticing in this city for two or three years. Dur
ing that time she bas gained hosts of friends
and an enviable practice, bbe was wholly en
grossed in ber profession, and was possessed
of groat ambition, an apparently tioe constitu
tion, and indomitable energy. She bade fair
to win a niche in tho temple cf fame. More
than ibis, she was spurred on by th9 thought j
that she was a pioLeer in anew track for:
woman. Even those who felt that she was!
working outside of woman's sphcro were com
pelled to respect her earnestness, al ility, and
worth. She possessed in an unusual degree
Home of tbe characteristics which aro euppoaed
to belong to tbe sterner sex, and they con
tributed no donbt to ber success. She was
fond of cool reasoning, and liked tbe contests
of tLo forum, and sbe often sail she was not
made to be married.
Consumption was hereditary in ber family,
and she bad reason to know wben she caught
a severe cold in September last that tbe result
might easily be fatal. JJut the could not make
up ber mind to leave at once. Tbe disease
progressed very rapidly, and within a month
after tbe first attack she began to suffer from
hemorrhage of tbo lungs. Even then she
could hardly endure to leave here, and tears
would come in ber eye at tbe thought of going
away, even for a time, before she bad won tbe
name she so much coveted. Finally, in
November, tbe symptoms became so serious
that Bhe left here and went to San Francicco,
and from there to San Diego, where she diod.
She knew her danger, anl bofore she left spoke
of tbe probabibty of not being able to return,
but ber grief seemed to bo less about ber
health than lest some should misunderstand
ber or think that a woman could not succeed
as a lawyer. Though f bo diod so far from ber
home, ber laet moments were soothed by tbe
presence of her mother, stepfather, and sister.
Miss llulett studied law in the office of
Messrs. Sleeper & Whiton, of this city, and
was admitted to tbe bar in 1871 at Mount
Vernon. After she began to practice she bad
an office with the same attorneys, and Mr.
Sleeper, who had reason to know ber beet,
says that ber death is tbe sad ending of a
brilliant beginning Chicago Tribune.
