Something About Other i liings Happen ing in Durham To-day and a Cen- ' eml Local Kfsiiinc of the Actions and Doings of Those Who Live AVitli I s. No one lias a higher opinion of woman than this writer, and no one appreciates more highly than he the nohle part she hears in the general salvation of our world. The sphere of her refining and soul-lifting work could not be filled by men or angels, and this is because her sphere of action and peculiar influence is wholly different in many important as pects from theirs. This statement car ries along with it the implied conclusion that she is wholly incapable of filling, either in politics, in social life or in reli gion, the sphere occupied by men. It is not worth while to institute a comparison to show which is the superior. It re quires both halves of a circle to make a whole, and it would be as sensible in ge ometry to ask one half of a circle to sup ply the other half, as to expect either men or women to assume each the sphere of the other, or to swap places in the social fabric. (Generally it may be said, and but few will doubt it, that women are better than men, and therefore for them to assume the sphere of men is to step down to a lower plane, in which case her influence in the upper is gone, in large measuie. "When the angel of peace bade the world farewell at the partaking of the forbidden fruit, the impress of his parting kiss was the family housk. Here is woman's throne, and she reigns with out a rival. Of course sin is in the world and has in many ways marred that house, and this is only saying that her home is not a perfect paradise yet. And if his tory, science and philosophy teach any thing worth knowing, it is, that if her home is ever to be brought up to its best ideal, it can only be done by her courage ously meeting and discharging the God giyen functions and duties peculiar to her sex, and not by despising her en thronement and abdicating the irresista ble power for good wielded by a wife, mother, sister, sweetheart and friend. The English-speaking people present no more beautiful aspect of human prog ress to the ages, past or coming, than the supremacy of woman in social, moral and religious life. Let her reign. With every right, possible to the perpetuity of the social fabric, guaranteed to her carry ing in her hand the talismanic rod that evokes peace and happiness from the chaos of strife and sin, and with power to make her home a type of heaven to the weary, and compelling men to bow to the sweeter, more virtuous, more an gelic power of her presence, let her reign ! A long reign, an everlasting, a heavenly reign, to the mothers of the Washington?, Lees, Wesleys, (Jarfields, Judsons, Ed wardses, Ilawkes, the modern Gracchii in politics, Ilaunibals in war, and Chrys ostones in sacred oratory. Who can bind the sweet intluences of such Pleiads as these women, the sweep of whose life requires the cycles of the eternities! P.ut, alas! shall we tell it? When Sa tan strikes a fresh blow at the interests of God and man he always strikes first at woman. So he struck at Eve. What a strange infatuation, that, to preserve "Home and Native Land" from the sin of whiskey, a move is to be made that I can only have the effect of okstkoyino THAT VEUY HOME AND NATIVE LAND. It is as if one, to get clear of certain annoy ances, should set tire to his house and burn it down ! scuttle and sink the ship because some on board are sea-sick ! The world can never be made into a para dise by civil law, which implies force and bloodshed. Jesus said, "I came not to destroy men's lives, but to ave life.'' The only sword he came to bring was simply the sword of the spirit of the per suasiveness of truth, and never to in voke the sword of Cavsar. Of thjs sword he declared, "He that taketh it shall per ish by it." But still worse, when that j word is set agoing by the votes of wo- i . . a V I - i lft fosnol-freio-hted shores of en atr vn in nave re-enaeiei. mrm ! . . . . , . . e oioouv scenes oi me caus-v a otp m . i i i . i n i.ii Scene from Wffod.iir Museum. 111 I ?f9 1780 Elizabeth Cady Stanton, one of the leaders of the woman suffrage move, says we are. Shesajrsif "women's rights" are not given to them soon, women will not wait much longer, but will join hands with anarchists, nihilists, etc., and we shall have, she says, "the scenes of the French revolution over again in this country!" She says, further, that "wo man will never have her rights and be free until she throws off the Bible and Christianity as a fraud." The W. C. T. U.-Kt the North has championed the cause of woman suffrage, and one of the female speakers from that section said recently in a speech in this city, in substance, "If you men cannot do any better with the ballot than you have been doing, turn it over to us women, and let us try." That is, you men have failed up to this time in making this world a perfect paradise by voting and legislating; now turn the business over to the women ! The "mills of the gods" grind too slowly for these people. They must upset God's arrange ment and make one of their own. And a few men (?) having "axes to grind," longing for office,' and seeing no chance of getting it by orderly methods, try to curry favor with these women, so that when the Hoods come they may be floated into place. Some of them have already tried this floaf, but it did not float worth a cent. Well, "woman suffrage.'' What will be its effects ? Women will cither vote exactly as do their husbands, fathers and brothers, or they will not. If they do, the result is only an enlarged vote, and nothing different from what it would have been only by the male vote. But if if they do not so vote, but vote opposite to husbands and brothers, then the home j turned into a place of political strife, and this is one road to hell ! Young men will more than ever cease to seek mar riage, and brothels, free-love and kindred evils will set in like a Hood. But another evil lies in the statement of a pleasant truth. It is this : The great majojlly of southern women would not vote don't want to vote oppose the whole thing, and this is true at the North, also, as I have recently learned, to my great joy, from a northern lady But all the riff raff, negro women, etc., would vote, and this is another road to hell ! But 1 am sick at the thought. Let us turn a moment to a more pleasant sub ject. Why not form a Woman's Rescue Union, and try by gospel methods to SAVE THE P.A K-KKF.I'EK and DRUNKARD? lie can never be saved by fighting him. And you yourselves, when you get the law, and he is brought up before the judge to be punished, will give place to heart relenting, and ask the judge to let him off lightly. And so the judge sneers, and says, "One set come and ask for the offender to be punished, and another set intercede for his release; bah! A "Woman's Rescue Union" might save young women who have fallen. Oh, heavens! what a crying sin that women should neglect and kick down to hell one of-their own sex who has fallen, instead of trying to save her ! But some short sighted woman will reply, "That is what we want the ballot for, to right all these wrongs." Yes, but in trying to right her wrongs she uses the very means to wrong her rights. She vainly sup poses that the i allot is the divine alchemy that turns everything to gold. The ballot ! Is the ballot the "open es same" to all good ? Is it written in his tory or anywhere else that the rallot is the power of God unto salvation? If men have failed to bring in the millen nium by ballots, is it probable that wo men will do much better, and especially when, to run, this buzz saw in morals, she must leave largely to wreck the sacred edifice of home! God bless and save the women from politics, from standing in pulpits and preaching, and from speaking on public platforms. Christ chos twelve apostles and not one of them a woman. But I am free -to say that if he had chosen twelve women, not one of them would have betrayed him. But he did not sub vert his own order by choosing women, so he sent out "the seventy," but not one of them a woman. The blessed .rood ! women ministered to the cause in their own sphere. And this is the road to all heavens. E. A. Yates. 1 ult vim in l'arvo. 1 localise a thinjr is small in size. Think not 'twill pay to scorn it ; Some insects have a larger waist.

THE -IXSAXK LECTURE What Colonel Vann Savs About Campbell's Bout. The Choke Egs as They Were Finn Around. COLONEL BILL MAYNOR'S FIRST TALK How He Fell Down in His Sprawling Way as the Eggs Came and the Au di eure Collapsed. "Insanity, as she was and is." This was the subject of a lecture, de livered at the Stokes Opera House last night, by that eminent specialist, Pro fessor Campbell, late of the Bellevieu medical school, but now of us. 'Twould be superfluous to say that the professor handled this abstruse subject in a mas terly manner, "masterly" would not at all fill the bill in this instance his de lineations and verbal illustrations car ried conviction, unhesitating conviction, to the hearts of his large audience that he was sincerely and cheerfully at home in the presence of this, to him, fascina ting topic. The. large and splendid opera house was crambed and jammed from pit to sky-light with the beauty and the sapient heads of our city, the M. D's being particularly conspicuous, they oc cupying the rostrum and, with note books in hand, assiduously jotted down the pearls and rubies as they incessantly rip ple from insanity's copious fountain. The professor was introduced bv Col. Bill May nor who, as he came to the front of the rostrum, felicitiously said : ' "Ladies and Gentlemen : We, who are whole, need not the physician ; 'tis the maimed, the dyspeptic and the gouty that claim and receive his attention, and are benefitted, more or less, as the malady be acute or chronic but, 'who can ad minister to a mind diseased V That mal ady of the mind has, through all the past ages of time, ballied the sages of the bolus and scapula. Shall the poor mind-beclouded victims of insanity forever sit in the shadow of mental imbecility? 'Is there no balm in Gilead, are there no physicians there V Yes, I am happy to saT there is a 'bairn in Gilead,' and there, is a 'physician' here, and I now introduce to you that long-wished for savant in the person of Pro'essor Campbell, who will now address you." Prolonged cheers and a few cat calls from the urchins in the gallery followed this brilliant flow of eloquence. The professor then modestlr stepped forward, and bowing with Chesterfieldian grace, began : "KrND Friends I deplore my inabil ity to express to you in words my heart felt thanks for such an appreciative re ception ; and in view of the flattering in troduction by our mutual friend, Colonel Maynor, I feel that I shall say nothing to equal, nor to justify the transcendent beauties of his incomparable panegyric ! Suffice it to say that I am deeply moved, and am highly honored by the presence of such a large and intelligent audience, in which I see the rosy cheeks and spark ling eyes of so manj- of Durham's beau teous daughters ! (excitement in the boxes) but I fear that I shall hardly come up to the picture so nicely painted by my friend, Colonel Maynor. Imperfections wrap us all in the hideous mantle of de formity ; the wise and simple are on the samp plane in that respect, and I claim not to be exempt from that which has marred the beauty of the 'form divine' in all time and places. Now to the point: What is the origin of insanity who was its first victim ? To answer these queries intelligently, let us, in thought, go back to that cradle of the human race the Garden of Eden. Here we see, fresh from the hands of the master of life, Adam and Eve in their flowery bower innocence and purity combined their every want supplied by angelic hands, no drops of sweat nor scalding tear have as ; yet traced their outlines on these seraphic fnf p nnd vet 1 liprp l 1 1 1 " trnil nf inanitr 3 -k X. ti , .

(Sam Dickson groans in the anguish of a broken heart.) The next act in the idiotic caper claims my attention: Adam gets beastly drunk on hard cider gentlemen, shun 'hard cider,' spanks Cain and Abel, smashes up the dishes, knocks off four teen inches of Eve's nose, yanks out a handfull of her hair, forty feet in length, and ' The credulity of the audience could stand the strain no longer a brilliant metoric display of over ripe "hen fruit" deluged .both Ljie professor and the stage, and a general stampede, in the direction of the dressing rocm, was now the ani matinir and life saving thought of all those occupied the rostrum.
