w what these right hands have done, and I forbear. One published letter, however, may serve as a sample of many. It was addressed to the last Anti-slavery Festival at Boston, and not only shows the mode of action adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Child, but their latest opinions as to public affairs:-- Wayland, Jan. 1st, 1868. Dear friend Phillips : We enclose $50 as our subscription to the Anti-slavery Society. If our means equalled our wishes, we would send a sum as large as the legacy Francis Jackson intended for that purpose, and of which the society was deprived, as we think, by an unjust legal decision. If our sensible and judicious friend could speak to us from the other side of Jordan, we doubt not he would say that the vigilance of the Anti-slavery Society was never more needed than at the present crisis, and that, consequently, he was never more disposed to aid it liberally. Of course the rancorous pride and prejudice of this country cannot be cured by any short process,

ton edition. Her first novel-Hagar; a story of to-day --was written for and appeared in The Cincinnati Commercial, appearing in a book form in 1852. Married, not mated, followed in 1856, and The Bishop's son, her last, was issued by Carleton, in 1867. Each of these have had a good reception, alike from critics and readers; though their pecuniary success has, perhaps, been less decided than that of her poems and shorter sketches. Of her Pictures of country life, brought out by Derby & Jackson in 1859, The literary Gazette (London), which is not accustomed to flatter American authors, said:-- Every tale in this book might be selected as evidence of some new beauty or unhackneyed grace. There is nothing feeble, nothing vulgar, and, above all, nothing unnatural or melodramatic. To the analytical subtlety and marvellous naturalness of the French school of romance she has added the purity and idealization of the home affections and home life belonging to the English; giving to b

a license to preach, and before finishing their course they would often speak in the pulpits of the neighborhood. When Miss Brown asked this license, the professors were grievously exercised. But after much thought and consultation they decided that she was a resident graduate, pursuing the theological course, but not a member of the theological department, and, consequently, she needed no license from the institution, but must preach or be silent on her own responsibility. Like General Jackson, she took the responsibility, and preached often in different parts of Ohio, while pursuing her theological course of studies. After quitting Oberlin she spent four years in private reading and study, preaching and lecturing on various reforms. In 1850 she attended the convention in Worcester, Massachusetts, and made a speech on the enfranchisement of woman. She preached whenever and wherever opportunity offered, without regard to sect,--alike in the church at Andover, Music H
