Lucy stone Blackwell read the report, or extracts from thereport, of this discussion with great catisfection, and declared that they were going {o priut thereport in the Woman's Journal, as snevidence of the progress of the movement; for when, she &aid, the Episcoval Chureh took + ptheguestion, it showed that the heginning of theend was at hand.

Fenno Tudor followed this with the in- fermation that the new Chaplain of the Wom- s Prisop—iss Fosdick—was n_member of the Eplscopat Chiurch, and. one of the order of Dusconcsses. When Mrs. Molloy, of Indiana, Yronsht in the snbject of Temperance, and sald {int sho always_talkéd about the twin sister: Tewpersnce and Sullrage, William Lioyd Gar- sison followed by saying that be didn’t clearly %ee the wisdom of uniting, or of attempiing to aite, the_two scparate questions of Saf- frage abd Temperance on the plaiform. Each + question must stand ow its own merits; and he telicved in sticking to the principle that was surictly before the Association. The stanch old reformer, who had seen much accomplished by 1iis sticking to the point. no doubt accentuated Dis own life-long views not only by the state- ment which Mrs. Molloy mads, but by that of awother Jady, who observed that she agreea with X Molloy in thinkinz that more men thaw women were fn favor of Womaa-Suffraze, 20d she thought there was a disposition among the Temperance women to discountensnce suf- fgists. Mr. Garrison disagreed all round this position. £e not only believed {n_ sticking to e tning at a time, but he believed that many women were badly excited in their minds when- ewer the question came up. But they were tinid, not in the habit of doing their own think- 1ag, and didn’t want trouble at home; in short, 1hey were n that “FEAK OF MAX WHICH BRINGETI A SNARE.™ Atthececond day’s session, Jennle Coliins, of “Bofli's Bower” fame, made an original yoit by riticising Judge Hilton for bis action inabandoning tne Workingwomen's Hotel cx- K . periment. as well s nis rcasons therefor, and taid that it was her belief that, instead of the lack of ‘male sodety being the cause, the true 1eason why women would not go there was be- cause they could not have with them their aged fathers, or mothers, or other relatives who were Cependent’on them.

Cincinnaty Gazette, May3o, Jewlsh and Gensilo circles cognizant of the oceurrence were alike stariled yesterday over a rumor of the marrisze ot a daughter of Rabbi Wise, editor of the [sraelits, to Mr. James Motony, a prominent younx attorney of the Christian faith. Marriazes between Jew and Gentile are s0 rare, even at this day, that few comprehead the serfousuess of their na- ture to the family of the for- mer. While there are no canons of the Jewish Church expressly forviddinz intermar- riage with Gentiles, traditions of the old Mosaic probibition of such marriages are strictly ob- served. These are expllcitly defined in Jose- phus, and apply generally to all sucn intermar- ringes. The offease is greater when committed by the daughter of a Jewish priest, as expressed in the twvelfth verse of the twenty-second chap- ter of Leviticus, as follows: “1f the priest's daughter also be married unto a_stranger she may not eat of an offeringz ot the holy things.” She is excommunicated, debarred from all fel- Towship with her people, and theoretically as well as practically dead to her own family, ex- cept she be left a witlow, or separate from her husband and return to her own people. Juews encourage sochal intermingline with Christians, but zdbere with unchanging fidelity to thelr rules against intermarriage. For o number o! years the family of the Rev. Tsaae M. Wiscand ™ that of Mr. Molony were neighbors on Collere INNL Rabbi Wise at the time was 3 widower, With a grown-up daughter, Miss Helen, and two sons. The daughter is de- scribed as a beautiful girl of lizht complexion, iuteilizent, accomplished, lovely inmanners, and lovable in disposition. Mr. Molony is well known throughout the county asa young attorney of considerable promise and practice. A few vears 220 he neted as De'{nrg-Shcrim afterward as as- sistant to Mr. C. W. Baker, when that gentle~ man was Prosecuting Attorner, and for the past two or three years fhas been engaged in the practice of law with his brother. Tiwo years 250 he was a candidate for the State Legislature on the Democratic ticket. Ilis_father, now dead, was _Professor of Enslish Litcrature in Farmers’ College. Ile had been a Catholic priest in Ireland, but reoounced that faith and became a memsher of the Episcopal Clhurch. He was one of the founders of Farmers’ Collego. White Mr. Molouy is not regarded ns a mem- ber of any church, he has been a regular attend- ant at the services of both the Episcopal and Presbyterian churches on College iill. Icis a young man of fine personal appearance, tall, lizht complexion, brignt. and rather brilifant in couversation,—on the whole, such & man as the averaze young lady might be pardoned for fall- fog fn fove with. White liviog ou College Hill the two familics werequiteintimately associated. Some of the boys of each were classmates_in college, and, when 8 younzer brother ot Mr. James Molony died a few years ago,a brother of the present bride acted as one of the pall- bearers. A mutual attachment spraug up be- tween the two under discussion, which neither for a time felt willing to acknowledge. It was discovered by Raobi Wise almost before the young people were themselves aware of its exist- tnce, and naturally enoush developed into an engagemeut. Every effort was made to prevent it Trom growing further, but without avail. The young lady was sent Eust for nearly a year, but. 3 regular correspondence was kept up between Derself and lover. On her return, the father, who realized gadly the terrors of the impending blow, argued. pleaded. and used every possibic effort to cause a separation. The young lady hesitated, consented to separate, wavered, and finally with more determination than cver de- cided to adhere to her lover. It was a case of devation on each side which resisted all press- ure. A vear and o half azo Mr. Molony was for- bidden the Rabbi’s house, but the lovera co- aged in a clandestine correstondence, and had requent intervicws. Aday was set for their elopement, but was postponed at the time for rudent reasons. Thc date was refixed for last ‘uesday. Miss Wise Ieft:home on Tucsday af- ternoon at 3 o’clock, and, having many relatives aud friends in the city, her absence for a day or 1wo even would not” occasion surprise in her family. Mr. Molony during the afternoon pro- cured his marriage license, and sueceeded in having fts_issue concealed from publle inspection for the time. About half-past § o'clack they rode to the residence of the Rev. C. W, Wendte, No. 366 West Seventh street. Mr. Wendte was absent, but was sent for, and on his arrival Mr. Molony introduced himself and ‘presented his license.” Both parties were stran- gors to the clergyman, snd his only duty ap- Deared to be to satisfy bimself that the young lady was of lezal age. [t never for a momeut occurred tohim that the Miss Wise whose name Be read on the license was - the daughter of the Rabbf with whom for some time past he has been enzazed in a spirited public controversy. Had be known it, he says he would lave hesi- tated us to bis duty in the matter. So he ac- cordingly tied the knot in the brief form pe- culiar to the Unitariau Chureh, sud which can be accepted conscientiously Dy Jew as well as Gentfle. The newly-wedded pair repaired to the Galt House for the night, and in the morn- ing the bride returned to her home, informed her stepmother of the startling occurrence, and returned with her'wardrobe to the hotel, where they will remain until their preparations are completed for a wedding tour.

Dr. Riggs, a dentist of this city, is the man who first administered laughing-gas when the discovery of that anesthetic was made by the Jate Dr. Horace Wells. A public extubitton was given at which Dr. Wells was present, and the. gas was taken first by Sam Cooley, who had a tooth pulled by Riggs. Several weeks ago the Rev.

An entirely new field of science has been open- ed by the discoverics In the line of the phono- graph and teiephone. The lunt can bardly be guessed at. The latest thinz Is the Invention of an instrument that bears the same relation to our capacity for hearing that the microscope or telescope does to vision. The new device mag- witics sound; {t is appropriately call the micro- phone. By ite means, sounds so {alut that they Lave never before been heard by buman ears may be made of uny degree of londness, A teather’s eage, brushed over the sounding- board of this instrument, has been made to crash upon the ears of the listeners. The touch of the tip of 3 camel's-hatr brush was the ocen siou of *acrackling nolse, of which the in- nsity was almost palnful to the car.” The Isintest whisper of the Juman volee can be produced lo the loudest tome Prof. D. E. Hughes, the inventor of a typs printing telezraph instrument, is the euior of a microphone, of whick he has given a fuil account to the ltoyal Society of London, and the steps by which e was led up to the inven- tlon. ‘The apparatus wbich he ha. :d fi his new experiments is of the simpiest charac- ter, and the most trifling cost. Witis it he has made the footsteps of a house-y distinctly aud ible; and all these sounds, after being itens fed. are transmitted 1o any needful distance by the ordinary telephone. t a recent exhibition of these experiments to a few scientific. friends o London, all the astonishing effects that have been referred to were easily produced, except the fiy performance. With zreat difliculty (says Nature) the philosophers found a fly in he house. With yet greater difliulty they cauznt the insect. "But the final trouble was fusurmouatable; the captured fly would stay on the glass tumbler that imorisoned him; nothing conld induce him to walk ou the soundi board which the tumbler covered.

The reproduced sounds main their inerease of power, doubtless, at the expense of the current, After o larre number of cxperiments, he gives the prefarence to carbon for this purpose,—especial- 1y to pieces of charcoal that have been heated to whiteness, and then plunged Into mercary. These pi fn one of his experiment: placed in a rlass tube, and brought a pressure upon them that squeezed their ends together. ‘This apparatus was made part of a closed clee- Lric circuit of three small cups. A Bell tele- phone was then introduced into the aircuit, and the whole thing was complete. All that was necessary to do was to talk to the tube, cven at & respectful distance from it, and the telephone repeated the sound, at any distance yet tried, with e loudness dependent only on the pressure in the tube. This invention will eaable the telephone todoall that was hoped for it, and what it was feared it never could nccomplish. As an exchauge remarks: “This disposes at once of tue fear that the telephone Was nearing the end of its uscfulvess as an iustrument ol conveving speech. Itis only at the beeiuning, With such means there will be no obstaclc to reporting a public speaker or singer: no difi- cuity, infact, in hearing whispers inaudible to unassisted ears.” WEW TIE TELE- EDISON, THE MAGICIAN, .

When he is experimenting, he wears a thoroughly earnest look, and as he speaks his countenance tells quickly whetherthe thourhit in his mind isone of weight or of plensantry. In height he s about five fect seven inches, and, excenting a very slight stoop of the shoulders, Is of good flzure and is firmly built. ITe is not so deaf as has been described, and it is not o fact that he has never hcard the voice of his own Invention. He is very hard of hearing, but by placivg his ear close tothe sounder of the telenhoue, he hears readily, and is very quick to detect false time or false tones.

The corners do not come together. There is no mitre. or mor: tise, or joint, or nin, that I can see; and that platform must fall to pleces if it depends upon the frame, or I krow even less about jofners work thun | supposed. 3 Let me see: *“The Earth fs Man’s.” Did man make the earth?

It does scem to me that any man who has sense coough to saw a stick of wood in two myst sce that the top of this frame does not fic the left side, and vever can be made to fit it. The earth is the largest production of wh we have any intimate knowledzes and, if it docs not belong to the producer by right of pro- duction, this whole frame is knocked into spliters; ard it is all splinters if it do 1If the race owns the earth without reference to the producer, why may not any individual of it own s much of it as be can ride around, with- out reference to the rights Gt ather mdividuals? On the contrary, if *The Earth is the Lord’s,” s the old Bible suys it is. what shall we think of the reformers who begin business by stealing the Lord's property, and excluding ‘the very uame of the Produeer from His production? But *Tools belone to tae Toiler.” woes this mean that a spade belongs to the man who dies with it, and not to the man who made {t? More' than a year ago I bought a_spade, and, in so doine, acquired the right of the man who made i, by paying him for his labor. Que Sab- bath afternoon, o big Irishman_cime to our kitehen-door, begwing bread. He said he was hunting work, and I offered to employ him. He aceepted, and was supplied with suoper, bed, and breakfust’ next morning, and went out, with some others, to dig a diich. I went to give directions, when he turned and informed me that he had not ‘“‘come to this country to be bossed by a woman.” I toldihim, Of course not, and that a man who handled & spade as beautilully as he did had no need to be bossed by any one; but, if he would just look, he would see thar that bank was wot straizat, and that it would be much better to_have some more ue from it. Ie did as I required, ana L. kepe him several days, during which he told his experience toour other workinen. Hehad been carning mare money than I bad, withoat work- ing nearly 8o many hours;' or nearly so hard, according to his strength, and had spent his sal- ary in whisky; bad once robbed a Ifttle girl on the high road to get more money to buy more whisky; while I saved my money and bought o spade. Now 1 would rcsm.‘x:t[ull&' ask Mr. Par- sons whether that spade belonged to me, or to Paddy, who dug with it. Paddy evidently thought that * Tools belong to the Toiler,” for he tovk my spade with him when he procceded on his travels. During the past sisteen months I have had cousiderable cxperience about tools, and have found thmt the toler seldom or ever had any; that it was my high privileze to supply then when I wanied any work done; that they far- nished him employment in hunting them; and that he never knew where be had put them when he used them kast. They were always his when they were to be broken ar lost, and_mine when they were to be repalred or replaced. Would Mr. Parsous be so zood as tolet me know who is to furnish the tools which * belong to the toiler,” and about how many will be re- quired to supply the demand; also, if the toiler could be induced to keep them in repair, or who 1s to pay the blacksmith. N Again: what class of toilers are to be farnish- ed with tools? Shail 1 have a richt to call upon some one for a new peu,—this oneis about worn out,—a thimble, scissors, needles, etc., ete.? And, If so, on whom shall [ call! Iused to think my tools were mine when I had bought and paid for them; but, in the good time of So- cialism, will some one suppiy me with tools? 1t would be very nice to have one’s tools fur- nished *free, gratis, for nothing, and .uever a cent to pay3” but thore 1s some danger that the business of tool-making will zo out of fashion. Will not our shovel-factories stoo work If all the shovels belong to the men who throw clay into wheelbarrows, without reference to those who dig the ore out of the earth, smelt it, and make it Into blades, and those who cut down trees and convert them into handles? But the right-hand side ol the frame of this redoubtable platform is as quecr as_the left. & conomical, Political, and Relizlous Liberty.” Whatever i3 Economical Liberty? Does Mr. Parsons mean that workiogmen are not now af liberty to be economical, and do wicked capi- talists compel them to spend their wages in ram aud beer, cigars and etecterns, anda thus prevent them from belng capitalists? 1t is bevond ques- tion that a man_who works regmiarly and is economical docs become a capitalist: and is it true that somecombiration denies to the honest toller this inestimable boon of thnomS? 1f so, that combination should be resisted to the death: for economy and fndusiry, and this alone, will sceure to any man * the glorous privilege of being Independent.” As for the bottom of the frame, it is not even stuck on with glue. How do the workingmen of this country come to be ignorant, after all the teaching of “The Agitation Committee,” who avoid all work themselves by getting 10-cent subscriptions sitting by his side, with ber from the men who work? Who are “the intel- lectual ruflians” who enslave them? Is it MorseYwho taught the lightning to carry news for thems: or Fulton, who made stcam their servant? Intellect has Mited untold burdens from the shoulders of workingmen; and what are we to think of those who wovld ' make war between it and labor? The workingman must be a dolt. indeed, who does not see the blessing bestowed upon all classes of saciety by one uch man_as the inventor of tne safetv-lamp; nd who docs not know that the areatest intel- lects sometimes soring from the masses of labor- ing men? Those who would nssociate, in_the minds of laboring men, intellect with ruflian- ism, are certainly blind leaders of the blind, and alt who follow them shail, with them, fall into the ditch.
