A After a century of discussion on the rights of citizens in a republic, and the gradual extension of Suffrage, without property or educational qualiﬁcations, to all white men, the thought of the natiOI1 has turned for the last thirty years to negroes and women. And in the enfranchisement of black men by the Fourteenth a11d Fifteenth Amendments to the Federal C011- stitution, the Congress of the United States has now Virtually established on this continent an aristocracy of sex, an aristocracy hitherto unknown in the history Of nations. \Vith every type and shade of manhood thus exalted above their heads, there never was a time when all women, rich and poor, white and black, native and foreign, should be so wide awake to the degradation of their position, and so persistent in their demands to be recognized in the government. VVOman’s enfranchisement is now a practical question in England and the United States. VVith bills before Parliament, Congress and all our State legislatures—~—with such able champions as John Stuart Mill and George ‘William Curtis, women need but speak the word to secure her political freedom tO—day. \Ve sincerely hope that in the coming National Anniversary every State and Territory, east and west, north and south, will be represented. ‘We invite delegates, too, from all those countries in the Old \VOrld where women are demanding their political rights. . Let there be a grand gathering in the metropolis of the nation, that Republicans and Democrats may alike understand, that with the women of this country lies a political power in the future, that both parties would do well to respect.

Have I said or done ought against anything saored or divine? Am Igto make another marriage oontraot, or what? I like to be prepared for whatever may oome. On Thursday I expect lﬂarriet & Daddy, May & Libby. Do write to may whilst she is here to spend a day with you on her return. I wish her to see Cousin G's house & your baby. I send you a note from Tryphena. It is quite flattering to see the excitement about our beautiful babies. Tell Green he quite mistook my reason for leaving ?. so soon - it was because I saw that Charley was greatly distressed at the superiority of my baby & then I know that Cousin G would not return until I did leave, as he must have heard through Cousin Nancy & Mrs. Tallman of the rare beauty of my second daughter. Therefore he dreaded the encounter. I What does Cousin G think of affairs at Washington. We shall be in the midst of violenoe,blood & civil war before we look for it. Out fair republic must be the victim of the monster slavery unless we speedily rise in our might & boldly shout for freedom. We are all well. The weather here is very cold. We fear a frost tonight. Now Julius do come hither in June . Nannie _will be quite presentable in another month. Remember me to Amadamoiselle. Do write soon. Tell Charley the Junius meeting begins on Sunday. Much love to Cousin G. V Goodnight Your devoted Johnson PS —Oh$ Julius, shat glorious nights for sleeping. How I do love to sleep. elf you have eggs for breakfast tomorrow tell Charles hey must not put the shells in the dish. If he does it when he oomes here I shall take each shell out carefully with the sugar tongs & put them in the slop bowl & give him a withering look.i

We need say nothing of the merits of this eork having already run through six editions, its popularity is of course its highest commendation. But oh: that one agonizing pain, how dare any aoman try that more than once. ﬂﬁﬁ Oh! how my eoald died within me as I approached that dreaded never-to~be~forgotten ordeal. I laid me down had two oaine which brought the baoy,in fifteen minutee the aeed wee & here I am in the land of the living rejoicing that a female child is born into the world. I suppose you got Kit's letter telling you of the arrival of Miss Harriet Eaton last Sunday afternoon. We are all rejoiced that no boy was sent in her stead. Maggie's joy over her little sister is unbounded. She ieéa nice baby & has plenty of dark brown hair, deep blue eyes, a very rosy complexion & is said to look just like Kit. I wish dear Julius felt as much at ease as I now do but the time will soon be here &"that gain" will introduce to the World Miss Ann Miller. How is Cousin Nancy? that does Cousin G. say to the ﬁteformanoes in Congress?

I hope your wife sill help me to set forth in glorious oolors this point. Can it be possible that O. E. Frothingham gave his name to the Remonstrants?

The photograph shows that the book has had hard usage. a On pages 401-#03, of this same book, nether has written, at the request of the publishers, an excellent article on how to bring up babies. It is so scientific and up-to~date that you would suppose it had been written yesterday3 This gifted woman was a beautiful housekeeper, a wonder» ful mother, a fine cook, a great orator: she held children spell bound with the marvellous stories she told them. ishe was a versatile writer, a brilliant oonversationalist, a clever parliamentarian, far famed as a presiding officer, at great meetings: she sang and played delightfully on piano and guitar, ~ in fact there was very little that she could not do. And withal she was good to look upon with her silvery ehite curls, sparkling blue eyes, regular features and lovely complexion. She always wore a long black satin gown, with handsome white lace at her throat and a white, or pale blue silk shawl about her shoulders. . Happy New Year! Margaret Stanton Lawrence.

Well, on Tuesday nigh: I walked nearly three miles, shopped & made five calls - came home, slept good all night & on Wednesday morning at six I awoke with a little pain, which I well understood. I jumped up bathed & dressed myself, hurried the breakfast eating none myself of course, got the house & all things in order working bravely between the pains. I neither sat down or laid I down until half past nine when I gave up all my vocations & avocations secular & domestic & devoted myself to the one point then brought especially before my mind. At ten o'clock the whole work was completed. The nurse & Amelia alone officiating. I had no Dr. & Henry was in lsyracuse. I laid down about fifteen minutes & never had so speedy & easy a time before although this is the largest child I ever had weighing 12 pounds clothes on. She is very large & plump & her head is covered with black curly hair & oh how I do rejoice in her & now what shall I call her. What is the meat beautiful name ever given to woman? I shall not name her after anyone, for friendships are such passing changing things in the present undeveloped state of the race that the friend of today is the cold stern critic of tomorrow & then how trying to call a loved one by aname that always brings with it a train of most unpleasant associations. When the baby was twenty- four hours old I got up bathed & dressed, sponge bath & sits bath, put on the wet bandage, ate my breakfast walked on the piazza & then the day being beautiful I took a ride of three miles on the plank road, came home rested an hour or so then read the newspapers & wrote a log; letter to Mama. Today I go about as usual. Everything with.me & the baby is as it should be, as yet all things move on right & my joy in being the mother of a precious little girl is more than I can tell you. Now do come & see me right off. The short dress I wore until the last. It is grand for such an occasion & I love it more than ever, Well nhe sitz bath.has never come & if it is not too late just countermand the order as I do not need it now. Love to all,your happy cousin Libs <To €l.o.bav6~5C€.. S‘,.o..rcUlcc.'m-n)

Work down this way, then you come a stay with me, & hiss Clarke with Mrs Bloomer a I will assist you in getting up such a lecture as you desire. We will get up a meeting here a dot shat we can to advance the interests of the society. I think that you a hrs. Eallowell a I have as good as right to infuse what we make of the radical principle into the proceedings of the society, as the miserable time serving conservatives have to infuse their principles of policy & expediency. I think that address of Mrs. V. is altogether too small namby— pamby to go forth from any society claiming the reason we as a society do. Let the thing drop. I will address the women of the state as an individual, in due time, but this is be» tween us. I am not astonished at what you.srite me of Mrs. Gould. The church is the great engine of oppression in our day & you will always find church members trnckling & politic. If my address would serve you as a kind of skeleton for a lecture I will send it to you & you can fill out the heads, more fully. I am hoping to hear a good account of Miss Clarke. i have no doubt a little practice will make you an admirable lecturer. I will go to work at once & write you.the best lecture I can. Dress loose, take a great deal of exercise & be particular about your diet & sleep enoug, the body has great effect upon the mind, In your meetings if you are simple a truth loving no sophistry can confound you. Try and get subscribers for the Lily wherever you go, & make hrs. B pay you something for your trouble. I will talk to her about you an agent for the Lily, she needs an agent & you seelyou could easily attend to that in your meetings. I have a book just adapted to your wants a prize essay in temperance going over the whole ground, which I will send you if you tell me where, or keep it until you come. I sent you the report of the temperance anniversary read it clearly & you will see that many are already prepared to carry this question sith the churches. You.sill see in Clarke of Boston Brainerd and of Philadelphia, the idea hinted at. Shell our society lead or follow public sentinent~. ~ I say lead. Have you read Emersons speech to hossuth? read it and note what he says of majorities. I A Good night E.

July 7th (1892) Dear Friend, Your kind letter reaohed me here & was very welcome; A Having been suhject to much adverse criticism, a few words of praise occasionally are very grateful to the most self ~ sustained reformer. I have always said that the heyday of woman's life is on the shady side of fifty & I know my best speeches have been written since that time. Soil accept your oompliments ash quite sincere. I particularly enjoy your appreciation of my daughter's paper on "Voluntary Motherhood." She prepared it for the Westminster Review but John Chapman the editor, would not accept it unless she dropped out the paragraph on men's lack of the paternal element. That she would not do, so we published it our~ selves. I wish you would call attention to it in the Woman's Journal. I think it a very valuable paper. Some time when you are in New York come & see me & talk over the situation 26.West 61st. Shall return the middle of September. I am here only for the SnHb8Pa ae are in Cousin Gerrit Smith‘s old mansion, just as he left it. Here I spent many of my youthful days, here I first met art Stanton & we rode on horseback together overall these hills. The place is very dear to me for all these old memories of the past. But the familiar faces are all gone & the old walls echo to the voices of A a Y0unger generation. With kind regards for Mr. Liyermore & Your- self 1 Cordially ever Elizabeth Cady Stanton (To Mary Livermore)

And now that I desire to write and judging from your last letter to Cate that a line now and then from a friend would give you pleasure, now that you are enjoying the quiet of Peterboro ~ I think that the right time has arrived, and I commence, after this lengthy exposition, my epistle by saying that Gate and I are at home enjoying lthe solitude of Johnstown, and that a messenger of yours visited these parts about a fortnight since and by its quaintness ruffled our placid faces with something like a smile. It told us many things of you, not in themselves amnsing,but made so by the style of description. It said among other things that “you were more happy than when asleep than awake."- How can that be so? How can you judge of your happiness when asleep or eompare it with what you feel when consciousness returns. I have thought & thought for a reason why you should enjoy a greater amount of happiness in sleep than awake, and no good one can I find. However the natural inference to be drawn frmm such a declaration is that the fair one must be in a situation common to renantic girls of seventeen. Girls of that age often sleep and often still they dream of some friend - some lover ~ perchanee a Greek loveru a Cavasilus*~ this nakes sleep sweet - far better is it not dear Lissy that to sigh for his return by day? I learned from that messenger that your phylosphy had not yet enabled you to conbat that hydraheaded monstercalled Blues shosever I prophysy that his overthrow is at hand. *Have your weapoEE"iE+order and I too will make mine ready and when I visit Peterboro (whioh.wil1 be soon) by our united efforts, we will compel to depart from the breast of an unsophisticated country girl and seek companionship (in some more gloomy abode) with the heartless deceiyers, the gay coquette, the roue,the blazze, &c. iHin.who had so long tormented you. I look forward to a visit at your #1 father's house with a deal of pleasure. If Ioan getthere I will stay a months I reeeived the paper you sentne and I agree with the writer of that article or exercise. I ave something to say to Mag and I must say adieu although I have in truth.much.more to say to you. Cate will ansser‘your letter soon. William is here now.

I felt reliesea L to hear that you had received the guitar & liked it so well. I will give you all the instruction Ihave received when I visit Peterboro. AI play ﬁﬁylittle that is not well. I have only taken lessons sixzweeks 9 at the old mansion - the gre ihas the same elastic gait as when in days of yore he so gallantly served % and in New York I did not find.much time to practice. However I know about a half dozen pretty songs and four Waltzes. If papa attends eourt at Utica the first week in July I shall go there with.him, and frgm_there I to PeterhJro.if 211 an opportunity offers. Alt is doubtful if Papéh goes as inportant business he thinks will compel him.to be at Plattsburgh aboatf the same time - so I shall be obliged in that case to make some other plan, but loam determined to make the long_thought of visit this summer. When o do the Cochranes Visit you? Perhaps I will come with then, that is ifﬂl they will stop for me. When you write to them.te1l them to do s@ ~ if I do not get there before then. When you write to Sid tell him that his Johnstonn friends & all will ggghappy to have him spend his August vaeatin § I well tell hin.1ooks as gay & proud &I the country with Sid upon his back - and the little Waggon t@o,is still in good condition.‘ We are all well & happy, and rejoicing to hear from senses that our poor sister Meg is better. we have all suffered_anch anxiety on her account. She seemed for a time to be so rapidly declining. If Mrs. Tallmadgeis still eithyoa.reaember meLkindly to her, say that‘ “she must stop at Johnstown on her return.~~~ Gooi night; I hope to seeA l you soon, Tillthen adieu -~- Lizzy.

June nth Dear Mrs. Smith, In my recent speech on Divorce I made some qzotations from you which I put in quotations but in the publication in The World the marks were in the wrong place. So you see here I am jerkede up. If I am not very much mistaken all your facts are correct as I recognized your statements at once as familiar, having heard and read the same before. Where did you learn what you stated in regard to Clay a Franklin. some paper denied the fact of Theodore’s insanity & published his death three days after stating that he had laid in the asylum fifty years. The entire press of the cpuntry are pointing at me but as I weigh 175 lbs. I think I can stand it. How is my namesake. Give her my blessing & a kiss. One of these days I hope to hold her & kiss her for myself. I assure you I appreciated the compliment you paid me in naming your only daughter after me. I hope in all the ups and downs of life that I may remain trued to principle so that you may never regret having dubbed her Elizabeth. with kind regards to your handsome husband, Mrs. Johnson &for yourself, Your friend sincerely Elizabeth Cady Stanton

Beheldl my apology for not having written as soon as I desired to de. Last Monday norning Mr. & Mrs. Eaton and Gate left us for Newport. txnxny Today we received a letter saying that they like it very much.c They were making bathing dresses ~ and I presume ere this they have had a taste of old ocean. I have the supervision of the nurse and children. We all thought it better for Harriet to have the children here for their sake as well as her own.As her health is very delicate it is inportant that she should have as little care & trouble as possible. Tryphena is with us now. She came down about a week since. Baddy will return home with her and I think Bo will find sufficient pleasure with his Grandmana, Papa & nurse without the addition oft his Auntie Lee. Igan therefore determined toﬁhrow up my appointment over the nursery &¥depart for Peterboro the first of August. Miss Stewart wrote to me last week saying that she would accompany me at that time, with great pleasure but that company would prevent her from leaving sooner. She seens very desirous to visit Peterboro, but not more so than I am. You need not fear dear Lib that I shall be lonely. You do not know me if you think that I am happy only in gay company. A ride on horseback - a long walk with you er a race with Mag would give me more pleasure than a promenade tn Broadway or a party of all the fashionables of that great city.i This week Tryphena and I will probably go to Schenectady to commencement &* £ry will accompany me west as far as Canistota. I will let you know what day we will be there, and then you can see Tryphena if you wish and Mag can send home letters to Mag. I an very sorry to hearythat your Father's health is so delicate. We all regret it thatthe did not stop and see us when he went dewn. Give my love to your Father & Mother and Mag. I hear that Sid too is to spend August with you. We will have a happy time ~ but what will your Mother say to so many wild ones. There come Haddy and Bo and now for a regular romp with then.i as I shall see you as soon dear Lib I must say adieu for the present. I am sleepy and oppressed with the heat so prithee excuse this short dull 1etter.. I You shall hear soon again from A A Your cousin Lib PS~ All sendlove to our Peterboro friends. addressed to Miss Elizabeth Smith reterboro naa1son Co. N.Y.
