Woodbul! on the “Im Revolution.” She was modestly att in a! k Sik dress and a short jacket, in the lapel of waich was Placed af} blown tea rose. began by taking a retrospect of the pest, Cepicting the gigantic strides and progress.of the world, and shen traced the history of govern- ment from its earliest, patriasghal form, down to the mighty nationsof the t day.’ Asin this country,.she said, the future race of the world 1% be DF developed, $0, also, will the foundation of the future government be Ge- veloped, which shall become universal. It was no mere ebild’s play or idle famcy of the old Prophets. whose prophecies of @ Christ, who should rule the.world, come ing down tke corridors of time, and from all eras co: upon this. Neither were the Jews entirely at fault when they Joeked for a Messiah who ehcui reign over the work] in temporal aé wellas in spiritgal things, since it is beginning to be com- rehended that a reign of justice in temporal hings can teow from THE BAPTISM OF THEM BY SPIRITUALITY. And it is the approach of these heretofore idely separated principles which iste prodave mpending revolution. And that revolution ii be the final and the ulcimate cemtest be- tween justice amd authority, in whieh the latter will be crushed, never azain to raise ite despotic head among and to divide the members of a common humanity. St. Panl said: “ Faith, Mlope, and Charity. ‘Ehese three, but the great. ~€st of these is Charity.”” -Bearitiful as this triplet map appear to be to the casualist; it eannot bear the test of analysis. It will be replaced in the vocabulary of the future by the more perfect ove— Knowledge, Wisdom, cud Justice. These three, but the greatest of these is Justice. Char- ity, with its long claak of justice escaped, has long enough COVERED A MUZTITUDZ OF SINS. ‘Justice will in the futuse demand perfect eom- pensation in all things, whethec material, men- tal or spiritual. [Applause.) The lecturer then yo eeced 40 give her an- alizationot the terms liberty, éyuality and juse tice, and their practical nélation to each other, and discussed at length the vexatious ques of capital versus labor, presenting her views with great earnestness of manner. ‘* Now, I say thatthe comezon public is en- titled to all tye benefits accruing from common efforts; and if is an infamous wrong that makes it accrue to the benefit of a spesial few. Anda system of society which permits such grbitrary distributions of wealth lea disgrace to ehristian civilization, whose Author and His disciples had all things in common. Let professing chris- tians who, ter a pretence, m: dong prayers, think of that, AND TREN DENOUNCE COMMUNISM, if they can; and denounce me as a revolutionist for advocating it, if they dare.” In alluding to the impending revolution, which she declared Was to come, she traced the struggles of human- ity, during centwies past, for freedom. But the struggle now approaching was to be diderent from these—it wae to destroy capital and the privileged classes, for whom, she stated, six hundred millions or people constantly toil all their lives long. ‘The speaker next paid her attention to the public debt and to raiizcad and land monopolies, and with regard to the latter charged that the public domain was bought up by the rich, and that, with its improvement by the building up of town sites and citics, the wealthy doubled their investments. In the game of justice, she said, the increase of the value should not acerue to such classes, as they profit by the action of others at the public expense, and have done nothing themselves to entitle ‘them to receive doilars for what they paid only cents. Instead of having a few millionaires, and millionson the verge of starvation, we propose that all shall possess a comfortable competence—that is, possess the results of their own lavors, ‘[Ap- plause.} Branching off to the subject of CRRISTIAMITY Shesaid: I think Christianity has been preached at long enough. I go tor making a practical application of it at the very foundations of society. I believe in recognizing y the broad principal of all religior—that we are all children of one great common parent, God, which, since it disproves tho pro} o itions of the Church, that at least a large portion of us are the children of the devil, [Iaughter,) and renders the services of the clergy to save us from that inheritance nn- necessary, will abolish our present system ot a licensed and paid ministry. Which one of them dare tell his congregation the truth, as he, it he be uot a blockhead, knows it? I here and now IMPEACH THE CLERGY of the United States, [great and continued ap- piaute:1 as dishonest and t ritical, since the t of them acknowledge they do not dare to preach the whole truth, for, if they should, they would have to preach to empty seats—an admission sufticientiy damnable to consign them to the contempt of the world and to the hell of which they prate so knowingly, but whose loc: tion they have not been able to determine. An here I cannot forbear to depart from the stri line of mysubject to saya word regarding a do: trine, from the effects of which even this coun- try is but slowly recovering—that ot ETERNAL DAMNATION.

A RLOODY PARIS COMMUNE REVOLUTION. ‘The lecture closed with certain amendments she proposed to the federal constitution; but Mrs. Woodhull said she desired to say a few words more. This war of the people had to be made through the churches. “To-day, Con- gressmen said to me, ‘Now, Woodhull, just be quiet, and let’s bridge this over for a year or #0, and you'll come out all right.’ Matt © iter said to-day, ‘If you are to have your rights at all, you will get them through the republican party.’ We'll have them through no party but that of the people. I am going to begin a revo. lution—a bloody Paris commune revolution, {applause,) and I mean to stump every state trom Maine to California to accomplish it.” (Great applause.) VIC. SVITS UPON CONGRESS. During her lecture, speaking of her interview with Senator Carpenter, Mrs. Woodhull said :— “TI told Matt. Carpenter to-day, when he told me that I should be imprisoned because I spoke 80 disrespecttully of the Constitution, that I hated it; that / would spit upon it; I would spit om Congress. It is a stench in the nostrils of the people, and to overthrow it [ told him I would raise a revolution. That's why I come before the People, and I mean to sueceed. [Applause.] He said I would find myself in Fort Monroe; J wish I could put all in Congress there.” ( Laughter.) TUE SALE IN THE CovntRY.—The sale of the eftects of J. P. Bartholow will take place on Monday, the 19th instant, when a great variety of housefurnishing goods, stock and farming implements will be sold; and for the accommo- dation of parties wishing to attend the sale, we would state that the cars leave the Washington depot at 8.15 and 10.30 a. m., stopping at Penn’s Crossing, om the Baltimore and “On 0 railroad, whi ison the place, thereby making it very convenient to parties wishing to attend the sale. ——_—_— Pi iH READING.—From the National News Company we have Tie Galary for March, and from D.
