Iigginvon Keplics 1o ¥olland, nnd Demands Revolvers for BBoth Sidess From the Woman's Journal, Dr. Holland's acticlo in Scribner's Monthly would scou at first to be o simple ronssortion of the old, blind, brutal, Oriental dooctrine of woman's _subjoction. Dut tho truth is that noither Dr. lolland nor suybody else in this ago—not oven Mr. Fitzjamas Stephou—holds truly and consistoutly to this chnttel-thoory of ownorship, At ony rate, all through this Scribner articlo ruus a contusion of ideas, Ho trios bonestiy to vindicato chattel-ownership, but, it seems, when it comes to detaily, that what no calls ownership is moroly oxclusive poss scssion, Most advocates of woman-suflrage would sgreo with him in claiming this as the husbaud’s right. They would only differ from Lim in ossorting it ‘as tho wifé's right also. Thoy would mako it reciprocal, Thoy would not assert, ns he supposes, that tho wifo bhad a right to cnrr{ out ~her own plaus oud pursnits, irrospective of ‘the sncred duties of mothorhood;” and that ‘*‘the man who should expect such a sacrifico at tho hands of the wifo™ (as to do those duties faith- fully) “is regarded as o tyrant or a brute.” Nover yot, in all my knowledge of this move- ment—nud it cortaiuly includos, like oll new movements, some erratic peoplo—did I hear any of its advocates say anything so monstrous. What the Woman’s Journal at least has always advocated has beon ulmp!{ thig, that while woman had lier special and inevitablo duties, distinet from man's, in lifo, sho should be her own judgo within Her_own' sphero, as man in his; sud that in ll the yast realm which thoy have in common, thoy should be equally freo. That, indecd, the ownership of woman by man should not be a oue-sided, but a mutual and ro- ciprocal, ownorship; not as the brain owns and controls the body, but as_brain and heart own and control cach othor. This was the fiue sym-~ bol adopted by Swedenborg, who was, if I may ‘venturo to say 80, & profounder thinker than Dr, Holland, " 4 Phere is no true, pure woman living who, whon she gives herself away, doos not rejoice in the ownersbip which makes her forever the prop~ orty of ono mau." Thus Dr. Holland; but the reader looks in vain down the page to Beo what vow the man takes. Doos he enter intono ex- clusivo bonds? Doos hanot sign his lovo-lot~ Lers, aa she hers, ** Yours forever,” or * Yours til deth,” (sic), according to tho dogreo of ro- mance or orthography in tho partiea? Doos not oven tho Chureli, though it pledges her to obey (tho more's the pity), also pledge him, forsaking all others, to cleavo fo hior alono? And this is ownarship, mntunl, recipracal ownorship. Once grant the perfect reciprocity, and few ndvocates of woman suffrage will ask for more. ‘T'he defoct of Dr, Holland's argument, then, is that his good heart and good sense aro bettor than his creed ; and that though he tries to bo & dospot, in his theory, ke turns out in his argu- mouts to bo meroly a good husband, with a propor projudico in favor of monogamy, Thera 18 no objection to most of what ho says, but only to his forgetfulucss of the other half, which Lo should huve snid. This is truo even whon e maintaivg tho right of an iujured husband to use firo-arme. Heo should bave romomboered that ““the ideutification of lifo and destiny,” which ho proclaims, should equally entitla tho wife to the same protection, 'I'he Woman's Journal, at sny rato, in bound to see fair play, *Shoot away," it 1ny justly say to Dr. Holland’s imag- inary cnu’)ln “'go long ns each sido hns & ro- volvor. This stipulation, ot least, it has a right to make, For my own fi“" though no apecial friend of divorco, I think oven that prof- orable, as a remoedy, to manslaughtor.
