This indicates its growing importance, aud shows the intentions are to obtaia for it such strength as not euty to demand, but command the attention of legislation, Its udvoestes are sanguine of ultimate success. Among those referred to above. we notice Mrs. Victoria C Woochuli, who bus ror many years prophesied the coming ef great and inidamental reforms in the Constitution and Government of this country, ind who now believes these changes are near at hand, and the result tobe attzimed, A system bared upon equal rights to all, irre spective of nationality, color, sex, and admin. istered in Sternest justice, securivg freedom of body, mind, ani oul to every living being. Mrs.” W. possesses a commanding inteliec’, refinement, and remarkabl+ ex- ecutive ability, and will undoubtedly play & conspicuous part in such changes should they come; that she is creating an tmpression is apparent from the fact that several Iradiug papers contain articles regarding her; if those our attention has been called to indicate her peculiar talents, she will certaimy form a prominent character in coming years. Nhe is also deeply interested in several great puotic enterprises, snch as the removal of the dtuger- ous obstructions to navigation, known as Hel! Gate, eievated railways, the’ pneumatic dis- patch, and anew system for pters and ware.
