Our Boston Correspondence Bosron, Dee. 3, 1853. The Lecture Season and Lectwng—Mr. Hillard’s Promction—The Mumicipal Election—Temper- | ance Nomination—The Free Soilers and the Ca- tholics—Legrslative Elections—The Convent In- demnity—Effect of the Cushing Ukase on the Free Souers—Renewed “ Agitation” Expected — Treaswrership of Hurvard College—The Ply- mouth “Rock” and Mr. Frothingham. It anybody wishes to be lectured, 1 would advise them to come to Boston about these days. The lec” | ture mania is upon every one who has any powers of speech, and upon @ great many who cannot speak at all. Mr, Brownson lectures against Turkey, for Aus- tria, and not unfavorably for Russia. Mr. Winthrop lectures upon Archimedes, who was as great in old Syracuse as John Van Burea was o/ late in the new Syracuse—a sort of classical “short boy” to the Romans, those “ bards’ of antiquity. Father Ga- yozzi bas been lecturing here, and has gone very strong into “the Pope, that Pagan full of pride,” the Inquisition, and so forth. He has made decided hits here. All our popular speakers are engaged up to the eyes for lectures. Mr. Emerson commenced his operations for the season last Thursday evening at Concord, tos very large audience. A gentleman of considerable powers of sseaking has on his card of engagements lectures to the amount of $900, and some others are even sheadofhim. There is hardly a place that basa room good enough to lecture in, that dces not make some endeavors to have lectures, Not a great deal is to be learned in this way, but it is, perhaps, as good a way to pass an evening as any other. Mr. Hillard has received the city solicitorship, vice Chandler, who retires. Mr. Hillard is a good lawyer, and a capital scholar, but a bitver partizan. The coalitionists, taking advantage of an ualacky sayiag of bis in the late convention, declare that “ the hand which feeds him” has this time done so to some pur- pose. Perhaps one cause why our whigs are served 8o well is, became they play so well. They admire patriotism as much as others, but have the sense to understand that butter and rolls cost money. Mr. Chandler retires on account of his health, the state of which does not admit of his attending to his pri- vate business, and to official duties. Like Mr. Hil- lard, he is a scholar as well as a lawyer, and the two volumes of “‘ Criminal Trials’’ which he published somo years since, are equal to the“ Caures Célébres”” of the French, and superior to any English work of the kind that I have seen. We are getting into quite a respectable municipa fight. The whigs have shown their hand at last, aud Mayor Seaver is their candidate, and, therefore, muy be considered as fairly entered for a third race, He is a tolerab y good nag, and was begot by whig gery on the Maine law, so that his pedigree, if not exactly unexceptionable, is at least indicative of spirit. It is understood thut he received but one ma- jority in the whig nominating body—not a few of the whigs having become heartily tired of the alli- ance of their party with the ultra foes of the anti- liqnor law. [he late miseries of the whigs made them acquainted with some queerer specimens of humauity than they ever saw before in their days of joyoueness. They fraternized with gentlemen of great carbuncular developements, the devotees of what Mr. James Thomson (poet) used to call “ se- rious drinking,’ the breath of whose nostrils would ignite a lucifer match a score of feet distant; and, as they have no further use for them, they do not exactly know how to rid themselyes of such nui- sauces. The coalition has said its J: manus, and its knell is tolling, and the¢e is no more occasion for the whigs trimming themselves with cologne. Why should they, the optimates of Massachusetts, far- ther notice the “forum populace’ Argal, they are for cutting tueir new acquaintances, | and letting the liquor trade take care of it- self, according to what is now admitted to be @ very sound rule in political economy. Tae temperance whigs have put in nemivation for the mayoralty, Alcerman Sleeper, a friend of tke Maine jaw. Should he and Dr. Smith, who heads the citizens’ ticket, succeed in polling respectable votes, and should the democrats put np a candidate, and do anything for him, it is nt among the impossible things of this world that Mr. Seaver should be beaten. It is supposed that tie free scilers will vote for Mr. Sleeper—at least, they bave done nothiag toward bringing out a candidate of their own, and they agree with him on the temperauce question. Some of the free soilers say they shali support Dr. Smith. Mr. Seaver will, it i. supp:sed, receive the support of the Catuoli's, who have vecome a power here. Should this prove t) be correct, the mayor's bargain to have the office for years will stand s good chance of beiog fulfilled. Ss queer to see how things bave changed in Bost.n, and what funny alliances have grown out ot the temporary removal of the whigs Irom office in Massachusetts, If the defeat of the coalition shonid break up these alli- ances, as is expected, there wili be more fun than ever. ‘The elections to fill vacznsies in our House of Re- presentatives, held on Mondsy last, resulted in a con- siderable increase-ot the wtiz majvrity in that body. Their majority was sixty ie now about ninety, being the largest one that any party has bad in that body since tne session of 1845, think. The whig majorises io '49 and °50 were re- spectable, but not whut tae w called great. The coalition ma seven, and it was cigh’y-four in igs themselves then ty of was forty- 2. In “53 the whig majority was ten. Those whigs who k»ot their cour. 4 age up during the days of cicaster, will now be re warded, by compliments to their sagacity. Le bon temps viendra was their motto. It is, perhaps, a | pity that they should not have a little more than two-thirds of the House, as it requires a two thirds | vote of that body, at t wo successive sessions, to cwry through such changes of the constitution as they have promised to effect. Iincline to the opinioa, | however, that their promises, like those of certain other politicians, are not to be redeemed with the literalness that is so pleasing in business transac- | tions, but which would seem to have little to do with | thore of politics. There is room fur a good deal of | shuffling in tho business, and it will be resorted to, as it also will be on several otner occasions. The whic leaders are said to be pledged to the payment of the long-demanded Convent Indemaity. | Some nineteen sears since, it pleased certaia per- | sons, by way of displaying their zeal for Protestant- ism avd thtir jzbhorrence of Popery, to destroy the | Ursuline Convent that stood on Mount Bevedict, in Charlestown. The Catholics were naturally indig- nant at this, and good men cf all religions were grieved at such an ontrage having been perpetrated in @ Christian land. Ac that time there was no liv here making towns liable for the damsge done by mobs in their limits, and, conseqnently, no legal claim wou'd be made for tae value of the Convent; but the Catholics have held that their clain was good against the State from a moral poiat of view, and they have not hesiated to press it upon the attention of the Legislature. In thus acting they | have sometimes bad assistance from persons who care no more for the Catholic religion than they d) for the color of Prester John’s beard, but who have, nevertheless, thougnt that the Conveut claim was one of a peculiar coaracter, and should be admitt-d | apd paid. But it has never found mach favor with | the Legislature, all parties giving it but snail ea couragement. According to a statement that resis on good authority, that claim is to be allowed at tue | next seasion of the Legislature, according to terms | regularly agreed gg by a distinguished Catho lic clergyman, and a yet more distinguished whig and “cotton lord.” Tue whixs mast pay for their sucze-s, and they will be so strong in the Legisiature—almost two to one in the House, and three to one in the Senate—that t! will be without excuse for not fulfilling the ho; the Catholics, who deserve something at their aud who mean to have it, affect the country people, i: than one wag will probably put to himself before he votes om it. | rather think that if the question were thrown openly into the political arena, the Catholics would stand a pretty good chance of coming by the worst of it. 1 am inelined to think that Gen. Cashing’s ckase is destined to be treated with a great deal of disres- ot, amd that “agitation” is destined to be greater here than ever, and ail a9 a consequence of the pro mulgation of thet uke So long as our free svilers had their minds occuoied by local polivics, and were engaged in making new State constitutions, laboring for toe choice of Senators aud Representatives, aud doiog other things that have no connection with na- tional politics or the slavery questim, they were ra ther a harmless organization, doiag mischief to no body rave the whigs. They had quite enough to do to tight the latter and take care of the Maiae law. They could not ‘‘agitate” much, for the want of time ud opportunities, Their connection with the demo- ¢ party also operated to some extent as a re- straint upon them. Indeed, some of the more ardent meu vers of the party were hostile to the coalition be-anse, as they averred it took the attention of free soilers from national matters and concentrated it almost exclusively upon unimportant local affairs ‘They 1egarded the coalition as a sort of Capua, in vt h the strength of free soiliem was wasting itself anny hey pes of hands, Rut how the mattec will @ question waich more Ve previous to Monday; it | ‘They were so far ight, hat goring the last | three or four years, there has been less abolition “agi- tation’’ in Massachusetts than at any time since such “ agitation” commen Now that | the coalition is at an end, and that uo chance what- ever exists of defeating the whigs ta local contests, the attention of the free soilers will be directed eu- | tirely to the subject cf slavery. Their State Com- | mittee had a meeting this week, at which it was re- | solved to go thoroughly into the subject and so main- | tain their party intact. They expect, I presume, to attract not a few of the younger por:ion of the voters to their standard, persons easily captivated by strong | appeals to their feelings. Then they hope to be joined by a portion of those democrats, who, while they see the hopelessness of all democratic effort, are | desirous of taking some part in polities, and would | prefer a live organization to a dead one, flesh to | bones, breathing mes to skeletons. Counting on the disaffection tbat is sure to arise in the whig party, which has come into power ina very uapromising condition, so far as specific promises are concerned, they expect access’ons trom that party. There are many anti-slavery men in the whig ranks—men | who would have Joined the free soilers long ago, but for the association of the latter wich the democrats, who are looked upon by such whigs as const tuting what they call “the pro-slavery party of the coaa- try,” as delighting to sacrifice pap little negroes at their caucuses, just as the e with makiog a simuar disposition of juvenile Chris- | tians at their secret meetings. In 1850 just after the passage of the compromise measures, the free soil party here would have been j»ined by thousands | of whigs, who were only restrained from leaving | their party because they suw it allied with the de- | mocracy, who were regurded by the abolition whigs | as being far worse than their owa associates. | objection will not exist in the future, and disaffected whigs can join the free soi party witnout the least chance ot aiding their old political foes In these ways the tree soil party expect to gain enough to | become the second political erganisation in the State. A comprehensive system of dissuszion is to | be resorted to, appealing directly to the peoole, and which, as it has suexeded on a smail seale elsewhere, it is thought will do belter here ia | a larger thestre, and where there is so much mate- rial upon b to operate. We shal! not be able to say how this system will operate for a considerable time to come, not until it shall have ben tested by an election like that of next Nosember, which will be for members of Congress as well as for State officers, Tlearn that the Treasurersbip of Harvard Colleg ‘bas been disposed o’, without reference to the cluii of Mr. Palfrey to that pleasant office, So it wou'd | seem that that pawpslet is not fo be paid for. Mr. Palfrey will perhaps learn the wisdom of the Duke of Alva's saying—tbat no man should allow himself to be used as pomegranates are—squeezed of their contents, ard the rind thrown away.

The defence objected to the testimony as inadmis- sable and improper. Carter made one of his inimi- table speeches on the motion for its rejection.

Mrs. Ross admitted that wives evince too little sympathy in their husband's affairs, and considered too little the toil and cares which were endured to farnish ber rich furniture and dress. Ninety three out of every hundred merchants fail or are found in- solvent after death. And the reason is, that women, not being admitted to sbare the responsibilities of their husbands, and acquire and have a voice in the mansgemert of property, have not that natural in- terest in their husbaud’s affairs they would otherwise have. Give her the right to sca and to dispose of her earnings and there would be co-operation and sympathy. and fewer fuilures from extravagance in the household. Mrs. Jenkins made another speech. She asked not for privileges, but rights. She asked tor the re. moval of a}] restraints, and woman would then find her own sphere. Whoever presumed to define and Measure out the sphere of man ? Mrs. Cox followed, concurring with Mr. Bartlett. She thought it was high time that man was awake to his own true interest, and refuse longer to be im- posed upon by frivolous indolent women. She had often been pained to see a gray haired old man la- boring day after day for the support and gratification of a half dozom idle extrayaggnt daughters. A man in Micbigan ¢lected to office was not so capab.e to fulfil i's duties as his wife was, and he had theygood sense to give up to her the official duties while he went into the kitchen and performed the cooking. She never ate better buscuits, chickens and coffee, then he provided. It was uot necessary, however, that women should a:sume official positions, and it depended upon her constituents whether she did or not. When they had their just rights, she hoped there would be no necessity for sheriffs. Women must not wait until their rights are conzeded—they must wrest them from mankini. Rey. Miss Brown argued that this cause was not growing unpopular. There was agitation in the newspapers and elsewhere; and while the subject ‘Was agitated, she felt confident that tue people would in the end come right. Mrs. Rosz made some concluding remarks, and ‘suswered the sneer made in some newspaper that the women who stood upon this platfurm did so from a desire to appear like men. If tobe manly was to possess higher powers of mind, loftier capacities, to think more deeply, act more wisely, the sooner all aspired to be like men the better, and especially might it be aid of the writer of the article in ques tion. (Applause.) The question is asked how it comes about that, in this country, where womea are treated better than anywhere else, romen should re- bel and declare that she is deprived of her rights ? The answer is obvious. Where else should she do it? Certainly not in those countries where men and wo- men alike are under the tyranny of rulers—like Nicholas of Russia, Francis Joseph of Austria and Napoleon the litile. She proceeded to give a re- sume of the objects for which the convesticn had assembled, and a recapitulation of the claims of the women interested in this movement. The following are the resolutions adopted by the Convention: — Resolved, That the movement now in progress throughout the United States, for securing the just and equal rights of women, in education, industry, law, politics, religion, and social life, is timely, wise and practical; that it is authorized by all the easen- tia! principles of republican institutions, and sanc- tioned by the spirit of the Christiac religion;-and, | finally, that it is but a carrying on ta completeness ofa reform aiready begun by legal provisions in the most advanced States of the Usion. Resolved, That the design of all true legis'ation should be the eleva\ion of every member of commu- nity, and that the violation of this legitimate design, in depriving woman of her just and equal rights, is uot only highly injurious to her, but, by reason of the equilibrium which pervades all existence, that mah, too, is impeded in his progress by the very chains which bind woman to the lifeless skeleton of feudal civilization. s Resclved, That we do rot ask for woman’s politi- cal, civ'l, industrial and social equality with man, in the spirit of antagonism, or with a wish to prodace | separate and conflicting interests between the sexes, but becaure the onward progre-s of society, and the highest 4+pirations of the haman race, demand that | woman snould everywhere pe recognized as the co- equal and co-sovereign of man, Resolved, } hat women justly claim an equally free access with men to the highest means of mental, moral and physical culture, provided in seminaries, colleges, professionat and indastrial schools; and that we call upos all frievds of progress, aud upon the Legisiatare of New York, in establishing and endowing institutions, to favor pre-eminently those which seck to place majes and females on a level of eqnal advantages in their system of education. Resolved, That, inasmuch as universal experience proves the meparable convection between depen- dence and ecgradation—while it is plain to every candid observer of society that women are kept poor, by being crowded together, to compete with and un- dersell one another in a few branches of labor, and that from this very poverty of women, spriog many of the most terrible wrongs and evils, which corrupt and endanger society, trercfore d> we invite the attention of capitali-ts, merciants, traders, manu- facturers, and mechanics, to the urgent reed which every where exists, of opening to women memerennes ot honest and honorable employment, and we do hereby call upon all manty men to make room for their sisters tu earn an independent livelihood. Resolved, That, whereas, the custom of making ‘mall remuneration for women’s work, in all depart- ments of industry, has sprung from her dependence, which dependence is prolonged and increased by this most irrational and unjust habit of half pay; there- fure do we demand, in the name of commoa sense and common conscience, that women equally with men, should be paid for their services according to the quality end quantity of the work done, and not the rex of the worker. Resolved, That, whereas, the State of New York, io the acts of 1848 and 1849, has honorably and jast ly aca married worfen on the footing of equality with unmarried women, in regard to ‘he receiving, holding, conveying, and devising of all property, real and personal, we call upon the Legislature of tie State to take the next step—eo plainly justified by its own precedents—of providing that husbands and wives shall be joict owners of their joint earniags, the community estate passing to the survivor at the death of either party. Resolved, That, whereas, the evident intent of the Legi-lature of the State of New York has, for maovy therefore do we demand of the people of New York | such a change in the constitution of the State as will | secure to women the right of suffrage which is now | 80 upjustly monopolized by men.

It isa political association, and row numbers, it is said, some seven or eight hundred members. Its asknow- ledged cream has been a paper called the Hockwach- ter, and Mr. Frederick Hassaureck, its editor, has always been looked upon as the champion of the society. He is now its president, and has control of its affairs. Some months since a division occurred in the association, about what we cannot learn, only knowing that Hassaureck leads one party, and that Mr. J. ¥. Wisnewski has great inflaence with the other. Mr. Wisnewski is the publisher of a satirical German paper called the Mosquito, and it eee has often made the said Mosqu’to stick its bill into the feelings of the Hockwachter. The Hockwachter retaliated; and for some time quite a war has been going on between the two papers, all growing out of e division amons the “freemeu,” Jt has, of course, caueed the breach in the association to widen, aud it issaid that the two parties have recently become very belligerent.

The mate’s name was —— Bartley; the others left aboard are as yet unknown, The Hy ion was built in 1848, and is insured in Boston for $18,(00, ond her freight for $3600, Last Saturday the piorgeie had some very severe tor Chern Fraltepa ey pret cenh pore remarks about Hassaureck, not only in German but | lost every sxil, with thejexception of foresuil add jib; in English, whivh, it appears, satisfied Mr. H. that either bimself or Mr. Wisnewski must leave this su- blunary world, or, in other words, that nothiag short of a duel would settle the difficulty. He consequently challerged Mr. Wisnewski to a duel, placing the challenge in the bands of Mr. Stossmeister, one of his party in the Freemen Society, and who consented to act as his second. The challenge was accepted by Mr. W., who named his second, and selesed the weapons. It is said that Mr. Wisnewski is a eure shot, while Mr. Hassaureck could hardly hit an Ray at twenty paces.
