A IVesro DemocratStump.upon the

At Lexington on Psturday night, aweek ago, an intelligent and educate J.1uec;ro maa named Harry Howard ad-dressed a meeting of citizens at the courthouse in that city, explaining his reasonwhy he waa determined to no longerhold political relations with, tho KaJicalparty. He wa3 a member of the lateRadical Convention at Frankfort, wherehe was incontinently snubbed and hootedwhen he attempted to take part in theproceedings. It seems that he has notbeen unobservant of tho course of hislate Radical associates, but has discover-ed that they have no real regard for thenegro race, aud only affect to be theirfriends for the purpose of using thorn togive their party the oflices aud the pow-er of the Government. He declared tothe people of hia own race, that the Rad-ical leaders had do other object but tolead them that they might make moneyout of them and secure their votes fortheir own purposes. Ho argued to showthat tho majority of the employers ofthe State Democrats and their bestfriends, as the interests of the negroesand their employers were identical, andif the Democrats of tho State sufferedthey too must suffer. He sppealed tothem hereafter to vote for the Democraticcandidates. He declared his iutentionto sreak upon the stump until the Au- -gust election. Maysville Bulletin.

Mormon Women lo Vote.(From the St. Louis Bcpublican.)

The Mormons have made a forcedmarch on the Geutiles of Utah territorythat perplexes them not a little. TheGentiles have no politics but oppositionto Jlormonism; they know nothing elsethan this, and thev care for nothing else.This is the common platform upon whichall of them stand. Their power aud in-

fluence are steadily increasing throughthe federal authority which they wield,and the Jlornions were forced to contemplate a time when the Gentiles, by theirsteadily increasing numbers, would bein the ascendancy, unless they couldmanage to reinforce their . own strengthby a new accession. This they httelydid; the territorial legislature passed anacton the 12th of February, 1870, ex-

tending the right of suffrage to women.This act provides that "every woman oftboage of twenty one years, who has re-

sided in this territory six mouths nextpreceediog any general or special elec-

tion, born or naturalized in the UnitedStates, or who is the wife, widow ordaughter of a native born or naturalizedcitizen of the United States shall be en-

titled to vte at any eleetioi in the ter-

ritory." This law doubles the Mormouvoting force, at once, and seriously

the Gentiles; for while manyMormons have several wives, and someof them several daughters, the Gentilesare generally scarce of both. They arepreparing to contest the constitutionalityof tho act, because it gives the right ofsuffrage to women who are not natural-ized citizens. Under it, a foreign bornwoman, mav vote, six months after herarrival in Utah, provided 6he is the wifeof a naturalized citizen. But thisattempt to invalidate the law will probably fail ; tinder the constitution ofMissouri, persons not naturalized, butwho have declared their intention to become naturalized may vote; and no onewe believe, ever proposed to dispute tneconstitutionality of this provision.

CT MRS. JANE U. SWlsSUELM.

Here I cm confronted by the littleschoolmistress-- - beg her pardou by thelady principal of a young ladies semina-ry, whom I oucu met iu her nourishinginstitution, where young ladies were pre-pared, under the auspices of au oriho-do-

church, for their duties in cominglife, aud where they were regularly lec-tured, by pious clergymen, on their par-amount obligation to be good cooks, andthe great danger of falling iuto the suaicsof the strong-minded- .

The benevolent little woman was doingthe houors, aud showing me through tiercomfortless establishment, when we camelo the study-room- . Here a half-doze- n

young victims of scant food aud hardbeds were at work with their books ; audon tho wall hung a cheap cngraviug ofRosa Bonheur's Fair." Havingseen muo 10 aumire, ana icriiu'r amiable, I stopped before this, and was soonlost in studying once more its matchlesslines. After a while I roused m'sclf toproceed with our walk, saying

"Well ! Rosa can paint horses!"A deep sigh called my attention to the

lady principal, who stood, with foldedhands, trying to draw her upper lip downover her squirrel teeth, as she turned hereyes bashfully to one side, sighed again.ana said :

"Don't you think it's a pity?""A what'f""A pity that a lady fdiould havo done

such a thing? It seems such a queerthing for a lady to do!"

Her manner was so gentle and deprecating, and her position so startling, thatit seemed as if I could not have heardaright; and, in blank amazement, I ex-claimed :

"Do you mean to say that it is a pityRosa Ronheur should rain: horses !'

"Y e s. The iicture is verv irood.Rev. presented it to the 6chool. Rutdo u t you think it would have been somuch better if a trentleman had doneit?"

"Rut, do you not know that nogent'e-nia-

could have done it? Do you notknow that she is the greatest animalpainter in existence ; that ehc is greaterthan Landseer, apd has enriched theworld by her genius?"

Oh yes, know, but as we BOt than they; but wh.if that is not nice work for a lady -- as ifa gentleman should" have done it."

"Oh, well, you must talk to the Lordabout that. The mistake is all bi3 ianet sending thatgifttoa gentleman."

The lady principal is a pocket editionof Society, which has her stereotype rulesas to what must be done by gentlemen,what by ladies : and holds that the Lord,having been graciously permitted to de-

signate such individuals as shall belongto either sex, should carefully ab.-tai-u

from any further interference. If hehas be tuwed faculties on a person of onesex which fhonld have been given to oneof the oppftsite. why, of course, this ishis mistake; and it becomes the duty ofthe lady principal to crush out, lop off,exterminate, extinguish, annihilate, andget rid of all such misapplied donations.

The lady principal has decided thatL'irls mu?t learn to cook ; and that boysmost not rob bird's nests, orchards, andmelon patches. Rut girls will nut cookwell ; and boys will steal oggs, apples,and melons, and devour them with agusto which means something. It meansthat the masculine love of food whichinduced Adam to cat the apple for itsown sake, not for the wisdom it mightbring, marks man as the cook; and thatthe race never will be properly fed wherewomen do the cooking.

Who has Dot heard returned soldiersboast of the excellence of army cooking?Who ever knew three men go off on asurvey or hunt, where one of them didnot develop an unsuspected talent forcooking? I have often watched menaround a campflrc, and felt that tbe ruleis wholly arbitrary which makes womanthe cook. I never knfw the significanceof the impulse which leads all boys towant to bake griddle cakes until I saw aFrench half-breed- , from Selkirk, besidehis ironless cart, on the open prairie,preparing his evening meal. He had alarge Gsh broiling on the coals, wihoutany intervention of a gridiron. Hisbatter for his "flapjacks" was in a buck-et. He heated and greased a loLg han-dled theet-iro- frying-pan- , poured inenough batter to cover the bottom, set itover the fire, kept on serenely attendingto other matters, as thongh no flapjackwere in danger of being burned, as itwould have been if any woman had setit to bake; but just at the right momenthe came up, looked into the pan, tookhold of the handle, shook it gently, thenwith a sudden jerk sent the cake spin-ning into the air, caught it as it camedown square in the center, with the otherside up. The cake was turned aa nowoman could have turned it, and with anease which showed that tho man was inhis proper sphere. Men's superior loveof food makes them superior cooks.Give a girl plenty of candy and slate-penci- l,
