Female Influeucs in the Grange
I believe God saw . proper, in His
matchless wisdom and divine good
ne&s, to assign to man and ; woman
spheres widely j diffriog1n a politi
cal, bat' not social I of intellectaal
point of view; ti t f -
A woman's influence can no more
be confined to tb'e narrow limits of
her household, than the tide can be
made subservient to the1 will of
man. She gnides toe youth, and
soon the youth guides the nation.
It is not actually ' necessary for
woman to be crowded into the jury
bor, to ple'ad the menrs of suits in
law, to ocenpy the Judge's bench,
to take -'the stamp -during presi
dential campaign's, nr to meet the
legislative bodies at her country ;
yet I bold it to 'be absolutely ne
cessary for- her' to j be jualiflel to
nnderstand the varfousdepartments .
and relations nf bnman sfl'airs. i
Prepare' .i woman! for the neces
sary and propvrin flu euce of home, '
and you prepare beittornsefaliu'ss;
prepah her for usetuluen and on
pave the wsy for the inteliectnal
adornment of the nation. Tlieeliar

true to Um tviM of her being are
charms for men! through which
man imbibes unspeakable good to
bis own nature.-f Ruling by Jove,
she sways an filmoHt" Imnndless in

race, annealing man h iron Heart oy
her gentle nature and gradually
win him towards! the paths in
which Le shouUbwaik: ; by her gen
tle and silent iliHuenee, she moulds
the character of .mankind into good
societv iu all uommauities. Her
power arises from the controlling
influence which she i has in training
and giving direction to the unfold
ing powers of mind and heart. - The
destiny of the chijd may be .de
termined, almost br the mother.
The inscription -which she traces
npon the tablet pf the heart will be
legible through the mists of years,
for the waves -of time can never
wholly efface them. .
Fettered by the laws of an imper
fect system of society, she is yet to
rise to her 'true position and exert
the ioflaence which she nntr iu roll

shall illnmihe tbe world, the glories
of 'which it is so 'delightful to con

him council his wife mother or sts-i

are too commonly adjudged as ver

'As' 'general rnle wives

and thoughts to! lbiir husbands.
Why not reciprocate, if but for the
pleasure of meeting confidence with
confidence f Hence her importance
in the Grange. 1 '
JNq I man ever prospered in the
world without, the co operation of
his wife; and I ! believe no Grange
will prosper without female pres
ence and influence in its balls. Did
it ever occur to the ladies how much
aid and comfort they might furnish
their husbands and brothers by tak

bread alone, it is; the approbation
of Heaven, his own self-respect, and
lastly the approval of his fellow

of creation. The tournament is not
the only place where women can
incite to action and reward the
victor. ' Wonld that they felt their
power and exerted it on the fanner
as well as the orator and warrior.
Farming' can never take its true

Repqrt of the State Treasurer.
Tiie annual report of the State
Treasurer, David A. Jenkins, Esq.,
Mates that the receipts into the
Treasury for the Public Fund da
ring the year ending September 30,
1874, amounted to $GC5,114.49, and
the disbursements to $451,339.GS
leaving a balance in the Treasury
of $223,702.21. . '
The receipts for the Educational
Fund for Bame time amount to $44,
331.21 disbursements 956,029.04.
The Treasurer, speaking of the
gratifying fact that tbeie is a bal
ance iu the Treasury, says :
"This balance' indicates that the
Treasury j during the year, has been
free from the embarrassemeuts of
former years, to which allusion was
made in my last annnal report.
Its existence is attributable to the
adequate levies of the revenue act,
under which the taxes tor the year
1873 were collected, aud the reduced
expenses of the fiscal year 1874,
compared with the previous year,
in connection, also, uith the fact
that the third quarter salaries are
monthly or quarterly quotas to the
Insane Asylum and Institution for
the Deaf aud Dumb , and the Blind
were not paid on tbefc30th of Sep
tember, as in 1873,(warrauts there
for not having been presented) and
thus brought in the account of the
closing fiscal year, but were paid in
October, j I i
I apprehend, however, that it will
be but very little more than suffi
cient with the reduced taxes now
coming into the Treasury, to meet
the expenses of the Government, as
small asthey are, or necessarily
can be, for the present fiscal year.

An Outline of the Conspiracy.
In ' Louisiana the case"' is bad
enough as it is: bat suppose that
out. of these events should: corne a
collision of , the . neoule with th
troops. AVhat then t It would be
a collision that' would arise frorn
popular fury, for the citizens are, it
is clear, resolutely resolved against
the resort to violence, Lt would be"
au outburst of popular passion over
Tiding thin' restraints of better iadk-
ruent Therefore It would not be
resistance of the sort that suddenly
arose iu September. It would not
surrender at any formal show o
discretion. It would fighr. "Some
body would be hurt. Naturally the
people: who would be 'most hurt
would be the small force of Uuited
States troops ou the spot, compelled
to lace a whole population' of reso
Inte and desperate spirits. The
troops would he driven out aud the
leopio would hold the city. Grant
would, thereupon, utake command
iu iersou. lie would concentrate
all the available force of the gov
erunieut ami endeavor to take the
city; but he would' probably fail,
for in support of the tieople of ew
Orleans would immediately rally,1 to
ngbt their battles over again the
whole of the iiopulation of Missis
sippi, Alabama, Georgia, Texas and
ArRausas, and tue men w bo once
marched under the Confederate col
ors, we would be in tne presence
of a new rebellion, fomented by the-M11
Executive j aud the President would
call on Cou gress for troops and

The Prostration of Republican
Government in' Louisiana.
There was witnessed jn.the Louis
iana State House yesterday3specta-
cle which is the first of its kind in
this country, aud - -which should
cause every true American to blush
with shame and indignation. A
body of federal troops entered a leg
islative hall, took, the Speaker from
his chair,'and forced 'a number of
protesting members from tneir
seats and marched them out with a
soldier on each side, prepared to
drag them along if they resisted.-
We congratulate the citizens - ot
Louisiana and the people of the
country that this extraordinary and
most revolting scene did not pro
voke violence arid bloodshed. Forci
ble resistance would have been justi
fiable iu auy case for a greater
outrage on every principle oi iree
covernmeut was never perpetrated
were it not for the fact that the
jieople of Louisiana-have a surer
resource tor the redress of their
grievances iu the sense of justice of
the whole country and in the pnblio
resentment which will be kindled
to the highest pitch by these atroci
ties and unexampled proceedings.
Every maxim of free government
was vioiaieu uuu. irwucu . uuun
foot by the federal interference yes
terday with the organization of a
StateLegislature. Our Declaration
of Independence denounced tne
Kingot England for , making the
military superior to the civil au
thority, and for dissolving repre-
sentative bouses ior opposing nis
invasions on the rights of the peo
ple. President Grant has done (
these very things by the use he
made of the federal army in New
Orleans yesterday. Of course the
responsibility must rest on General
Grant,, for without his orders none
of bis military subordinates would
hare dared to interfere with the or
ganization of a State Legislature.
It cannot be pleaded that this was

sively in that house and cannot be

side officer or body. All these con
8titutional principles, which have
always been deemed essential to
free government, were trampled un
der toot esterday by federal sol
diers in obedience to the order of
President Grant.
His ouly right to interfere in the
domestic affairs of a State is for the
purpose of suppressing violence.
There was bo violent resistance yes
terday, either to State authority or
federal authority, nor any offer of
resistance or imminent danger f
any. The President, has no more
right to unseat members of the
Louisiana Legislature than he has
to unseat members of the New York
Legislature. The act ot Congress
which confers all the authority he
possesses to mploy federal troops
a State empowers him to use
them only in case of " an insurrec
tion iu a State against the govern
ment thereof' The peaceable or
ganization of the Louisiana Legis
lature was not an insurrection and
justified no such high-handed pro
ceedings as those which" took place
yesterday.' The - President's au
thority is limited in every case to
the mere suppression; of violence
and preservation of order, and no
stretch of the statute can make it
extend to the organization of a Leg
islature and judging ofj the, election
and qualifications of its members,
What General Grant has caused to
be done in New Orleans will prove
a finishing and irretrievable blow
