My Dear Chronicle You have a Tolce that makes itself heard all up and down the Mahoning valley and all over the Reserve and in many places outside of those limits and so I want to enlist that voice in behalf of every young woman in all the re gion visited by you.

I want you to go to the farm, to the shop, to the store, to the office, to the fireside, and talk to the parents of those young women about the importance of giving them the best, the most substantia, the most useful education that four years diligent study, under a thoroughly competent corps of teachers, can se cure to them. Tell them such an education is worth infinitely more to their daughters than houses and lands, and stocks and bonds. Such an education is a dowery that cannot be burned up, nor mortgaged, nor stolen, norsquan dertd. Tell them, too, that the new doors of usefulness, which are every year opening to their daughters, de mand the best mental and moral training possible. Already the entire com mon school instruction of American children and youth is passing into the hands of young women and if the present movement results in clothing them with all manner of political du ties women will soon have not only the molding and teaching of the chil dren of the nation from their birth to their manhood, but they will exercise a power over the future destinies of our people, over our government and over the world such aa man can nev er hope to equal or counteract Tell these good parents, then, the future of our country must be what the young women shall see fit to make it; and that they will make it bright or sombre according as their own educa tion is complete or defective.

Then tell them that one of the very best schools to which they can send their daughters, and where they will re ceive the highest aud best education possible to four years, and where they can be well prepared for these high duties, is located at Painesville, Ohio, and known as The Lake Erie Female Seminary. Tell them there is not another just like it this side of New England. Tell them there is not another in all our broad land that can compress into the same time, a better education, or one that will better prepare young women for all the high and social duties of life. I need not say one word in behalf of Painesville. Every one who knows anything of the place, knows that it is the gem of the Reserve.

That for beauty of situation, for healthfulness of climate for intelligence, refinement, morals and religion of its inhabitants, it is not surpassed by any city or village in or out of New England. The Seminary building is a large, airy, cheerful and most convenient brick one, just west of the centre of the village and stands in a lot of elev en acres. The grounds in front and on either side are beautified by a rich green turf, aud filled with trees and ornamental shrubs and flowers, while the acres lying back of the building are heavily timbered and furnish charming retreat where the young ladies can walk and exercise. The social and other arrangements of the institution are such as to give the pu pils as much of a home feeling as possible. The board of Trustees are chosen from five or six different religious denominations so as to ensure tbe pa trons against any mere sectarian or denominational bias; at the same time they are men of high religious stand ing, in their several churches, and so ensure high moral tone to the semi nary.

The teachers are also from dif ferent denominations, and while both teachers and pupils attend church regularly on the Sabbath, they attend service in those churches to which they belong or which the parents and guardians of the pupils prefer they should attend. The course of instruction, as already stated, occupies four years, known as the Junior Junior Middle Senior Middle, and Senior Years. That parents and their daughters may see that I am not talking at ran dom, I will here insert a list of the studies First Year. Haskness' Latin Reader, Arithmetic (finished), Alge bra, History of the United States, Ancient History (Willson's Outlines, Univ. Ed.) Green's Analysis of the English Language.

I heard good minister say "lean educate and support my daughters there for a sum than I can support them at home without the education." Mis Mary A. Evans is Principal, and she is assisted by nine ladies thoroughly educated under this same system. These teachers realize the importance of a watchful, loving care over their pupils, and so they try fill the places of mother and sisters these daughters. From an intimate knowledge of this Seminary since first inceptian to the present hour, I can say without the least qualificationno christian parent, need hesitate a moment to place his daughter therein. Study, health, morals and religion, are all provided for wisely and judiciously.

If this communication shall seem call the attention of parents and daughters to this first class Seminary, and shall induce any of those young ladies to avail themselves of its advan tages, I shall feel that I have done them a personal benefit.

On the Lake shore road. from Sandusky to Cleveland, we sat cosily all by our oursel, one bright May morning, drinking- in the beauty, fragrance and loveliness on the one hand, while on the opposite old Erie's white-capped waves roared and tossed magnificent grandeur and sublimi ty, repeating the lesson, there is Mighty Hand that fashioned all things.

Seeing that we were in no mood for talking, he seemed bound, Yankee like, to bring usout, and interrogated us thus: "-Madam, are you in favor of Wo man's Suffrage?" 1 am, sir: and a worker In the field of reform, not only for mv own sex, but for humanity; not a lady nor a Cleopatra, but a woman, wife and mother, with one daughter and a little son whom I intend shall be reared side by side, educated together and tne same; taugnt self-dependence, and to rely entirely on their own energies and perseverance, that when tney arrive at mature age they may be ready and eauinned to enter this great arena spread out before their wondering gaze, and tight tbe battle of life earnestly and truly; go hand in hand to the polls and cast their votes together.

Just at this moment, as the train stopped at Elyria, a lady dressed in the height of fashion, entered and took a seat by our side, listened attentively to our conversation. Thinking it was our turn to interrogate, we said: You say you are a clergyman, sir? I am. Pastor of church, N.

Y. Well, let us hear what you have to say why the ballot should not be given to woman. We have a great many clergymen who are working for and with us; you are not among that number? Most assuredly I am, and earnestly hope the day is not far distant when my wife and mother will have equal privileges witu inyseu. After a short pause, and while we were recoverine from our surprise, the lady ventured to say, WeLL I don't know about this votintr. I have every thing I want.

Ah! glad to know there is one woman in the world who is perfectly satisfied. You are from Elyria, I believe. "Yes." Probably one of the "protesters, who have ail confidence your husbands to do the work for you? 1 did not say was satisfied, for I not believe there ever was a woman common sense and capacity who does not prefer to do her own brain-work, at least, but you know how it you are a wire and mother, and to gratify your husband, do you not?

Greene, June, 1870. D. R. B. STREWING GRAVES WITH FLOWERS.

of Origin of the Custom. Extract from the Oration of Gen. Isaac R. Sherwood, delivered at Bellefontsine, May 30, 1870. at a a Irving tells us in his Sketch Book that the custom of decorating the graves of those we love with flowers 'originated long be lore art nau tasKed itself to modulate sorrow into song or story it on a monument." It is in timated in high quarters tnat tne custom originated with the ancient Greeks.

Homer, amid the tears of his Iliad, strews forget-me-nots on the tombs of his heroes: Lycurgus proclaimed that soldiers who lost their lives in battle should be buried with green boughs above their heads. The Thessalonians adorned the tomb of Achilles with lilies and jessamine and the Roman matrons threw flowers upon the funeral pile of Julius Cwsar. But it was both in Greece and Rome, a rite in the nature of a sacrifice to appease the Gods. Neither the ancient Greeks or Romans had any knowledge of Botany nor any language for flowers. Neither is it true that the custom of floral sacrifices originated with the Greeks.

It was the custom in China five hundred years before Socrates, and in Egypt before Homer wrote ins man. it is true that the olive, the ivy and the laurel leaf were emblems of their vague ideas of immortality. But the water lily or lotus blossom was the sacred flower of Egypt a thousand years liefore. Herodotus, the eldest of tbe Greek historians, whom Cicero calls the father of history, says that the Egyptians were the first of mankind who asserted that the soul of man is immortal. He declares that the great pyramids of Egypt were built for sepulchres, and it was the custom in Egypt for families accompanied by priests to visit the tombs of relatives and offer prayer and obla-tiens at least five hundred years before Homer, and he wrote a thousand years before Christ.

Their oblations, like those of the Greeks and the Romans, were to the Gods, and consisted of oil, wine, olives, turtle doves, jew els and nowers, i ne rgyptian uoa-dess, Anouke, was the guardian of purity and household ties. She is represented with a lotus blossom in one hand and the emblem of life in the other. This would indicate a better conception of flowers than eith er the Greeks or the Romans. The lotus' perpetually occurs in Oriental Mothoiogy. it was elevated in ine Pantheons of the Egyptians, as the emblem of the great nre-giving pnn ciple.

Laschsmi, the Goddess of Ahund.mne. eorresDondine with the Venus Aphrodite of the Greeks was called the lotus-born as naving ascended from the ocean in this flower The Egyptians regarded this life as a temporary incident; therefore, their dwellings expressed vicissitude, but their tombs were symbolic of the im-mutabilitv of calm repose. The lotus was typical of the intermingling of tne eternal principles oi Deauiy, love and the creative power. The custom of floral offerings doubtless originated with the Egyptians, but whether it was transmitted to us through the Greeks and Romans is a question of much doubt. Burning the dead was common among the Greeks from the earliest period of authentic historv.

and the custom was intro duced into Rome 78 years before the Christian Era. Schylia was the first Roman of note whose body was burned. Flora, the Roman Goddess of Flowers, was a sensuous goddess, and her anniveisary on the 3d week in April, was celebrated at the Roman Capitol with Bachanalian revelry. It was the most sensuous festival of the Gods, and during the Consulship of the austere Cato, it was abolished by his edict as degrading to the Roman people, and was never afterward revived. It is clear, therefore, that with this conception of flowers, there could have been no floral decorations in honor of the dead in the spirit of devotion, reverence or prayer, ine custom we this day commemorate of floral offerings from the nands or our fair women, to our uead soiuiery, doubtless had its origin in the middle ages in the ages of chivalry and it is now conceded that chivalry did not originate in Rome.

From such a seething mass of corruption, as was "the Eternal City" before her fall, no high toned chivalric feeling could have emenated. In Mills's History of Chivalry its date of origin is fixed at 9o0 of the Christian era, but its principles were not approved by ecclesiastical power until 1095, at the Council at Clermont It was here the holy crusades were first approved. Then followed the lomr fierce ware In which the Occi dent and the Orient met to break lances for the supremacy of the world, Christian chivalry against uneuiai I it If if if is paganism Christ against Mohammed. There were then three incentives to war, religious zeal, personal ambition and woman's love. Here for the first time in the history of mankind war received some touches of tenderness and mercy, and a code of honor was established, which is now universally recognized among all civilized nations, christian or pagan.

It was in this age that woman rose from a vassal and a Hlave to her equal place with man, and her virtue became as sacred as a prayer. It is in this age alto that the record first appears of wo men strewing jtowers upon the grave a soldier and the ceremony then. as to-day, was In the spirit of affection, devotion and veneration. Many of tbe songs of the troubadours were written by women. If chivalry had been borrowed from Rome these songs would have been enriched from the 1 the in the arm and for is of he box cut the deep pr music of ancient mytholo ev kjuuc 111 L11C suus oi troubadours is reference made to mythology of either Greece or Rome, ine age or chivalry was an age aimless wars and wild adventure, but it gave us our highest ideals of honor and personal liberty, and did more elevate woman to her present proud position than all the literature, philosophy, art and mytholoev of Greece and Rome combined.

It was in the school of chivalry that man's love rose from groveling passion to poetic adulation the ust homage or strength to beauty. Here poetry first refined the fierceness of passion into generous and gentle affection a refinement so perfect and beautirul, says Mrs. Childs, that to-day, with a lapse of more than six hundred years, with all our vaunted progress and civilization, we can look back with profit to the by-gone days of the lance and shield for the brightest pictures of man's love of woman and nis pride of race. It gave us also our present conception of flowers symbols of purity, constancy, tenderness and affeation. The mis tress of the slain knight, in token of her love and constancy, was wont to strew his rustic grave with flowers, and this doubtlesa the oriain of the custom we this day commemorate.

And I trust that this beautifnl ceremony, conceived in chivalric senti ment anil sanctified love may be for ever perpetuated. Let it be for all time our most honored anniversary. Let us baptize anew the Roman Flora in the limnld waters of a living nstri- otism, and under the bright trinity of heroism, benificence and love, and may the fair women of America in their unselfish devotion, make these sacred places the Mecca of a worship 1 i 1 1 iiuner mail tne oaracen s. It would be well if we had more honored anniversaries. Let us shake oftener from our feet the dust of everv aay travel, ana let tne sweet currents or love mingle in prayer around the hallowed graves of our buried chivalry.

These simple floral offerings are more eloquent of our sorrow than storied urns or sculptured monuments. Bui wer says: "Stone cannot convey melancholy, it is a shadow which needs for its substance a living, mortal heart." Ourown immortal Irving says: "Pathos expires and love is chilled among the cold conceits of sculptured marble, but the hand that strews the flowers while the heart is warm and a tear falls on the crave of anectiou is binding tne ozier around the sod." How sadly, sweetly true; for it is the heart throbs, and not the centuries, that build the most lasting monuments. BEECHER ON SUNDAY. Rev.

GOV. EDWARD WINSLOW. BY JAMES PARTON.

to We are not accustomed to think of the Pilgrim Fathers of England as men of business; but when we look closely into their early history, we are struck with admiration at the boldness and wisdom of theii business operations. If Edward Winslow was the leader and chief manager of their enterprise, he was well seconded bv others of the colony. Governor Wins- iow was not a member of the congregation in England, but while making the tour of the Continent he visited Leyden, in Holland, where hebecame acquainted with their pastor. Mr.Rob- inson, and others of the little band of Puritan exiles. He afterwards removed to Leyden, married a lady of the congregation, and emigrated with them to America.

He belonged to a family ot wealth and distinction in England, and it often happened in latest times, when the pilgrims were threatened with the hostility of the Government, that his influence with members of Parliament averted the eyil. When he emigrated, he brought with him, besides his wife and an adopted child, two men-servants. In order to understand how well the pilgrims managed their affairs, it is necessary to know something of that part of the coast of Massachusetts where their lot was cast. I suppose many people besides walking about old Plymouth, Massachusetts, have thought what a pity it was the Pilgrim Fathers had not sailed a few miles further north. and discovered the fine, commodious and beautiful harbor of Boston.

Not that Plymonth and the waters about it are not most pleasant and inviting, If Mrs. Hemans had ever seen that coast, she would not have described it as "stern and rock-bound." There is not a rock anywhere about Plymouth Harbor, unless it be a few small boulders scattered at long intervals along tne beacn. The very rock upon wnicn tbe Pilgrims are supposed first to have set loot, wnicn is now covered Dy a granite monument, is a boulder "an emigrant like themselves" brought to that shore by floating ice. The Harbor, however is shallow, and be comes shallower every year, and the soil is so sandy that if the Indians had not taught them to plant a good fat fish in every hill of corn, they would have gone hungry longer than they did. They were not ill-pleased with their new name, ana tney may well be excused for thinking that Providence had prepared it specially for them.

1 never saw so curious a harbor. It does not look like the work of nature, but seems as if it had been constructed by an engineer in pursuance of an Act of Congress. Tne narbor is rormea by a natural breakwater a long, narrow beach, eighty yards wide, and three miles long, running almost parallel with the shore, about half a mile from it. This thin strip of beach, within the memory of living men, was dense ly covered with trees, the roots of which protected it; but these have been cut down, and the ocean is mas ing inroads in consequence. As you stand upon forefathers' KocR, when an easterly wind has been blowing.

you can hear the waves thundering and roaring on the other side of the beach, like ten thousand furious animals, eager to Jeap over the barrier ana rusu ravenous upon me town. The noise is the more impressive from the fact that the ocean is hidden from view by the long line of beach. As I stood there, during the gale of last September, I could not but thinkhow often the Pilgrims must bave listened to the same sounds, and felt as thev listened, that Providence, ages before, had drawn that line of sandy barrier across the bay on purpose to protect His own. Nevertheless it must have been hard to row a mile and a half to the deep soundings where the May Flower lay at anchor near the end of this natural breakwater; and the soil of Plymouth is so little productive, that to this day a large portion of it is not cultivated, and furnishes only a crop of firewood every thirty years. The township is dotted all over with large ponds.

When there are a great many islands in a lake, or ponds in a country. people usually say tnat there is one for every day of the year. Accord ingly, when the reader gives himself the great pleasure of visiting the cradle of New England, he may expect to be informed that there are three hundred and sixty-five ponds in Ply mouth; and he will be safe in believing one-third of the story. Under the sand in all this region, there is a stratum of clay, which prevents the water from sinking into the earth. and in this way these numberless ponds are formed.

On the highest ground of Plymouth; when the at mosphere is very clear, the entire outline of Cape Cod a wave of sand curving sixty miles out into the sea can "be discerned; and the same movement of the waters which produced Cape Cod, covered the original clay of Plymouth witn sand. There they were then, in the spring of 1621, a little colony of fifty persons; some of them in debt for their passage, and the colony owing a considerable sum to the proprietors of the soil in London for even this sand, thinly covered with soil and grass, was not their own. Let us see how Edward Winslow led them to swift and great prosperity. The sole capital to begin with, in the spring of 1621, besides their implements of husbandry, was a few bushels of Indian corn, obtained from an Indian depository on Cape Cod, several months Defore. I ins had been or in to it bis carefully saved to plant in tne spring; i i.i i I 1 i 1 i DHL it on lu nave ataiicu tucm ihhc thev had not from the first adopted the policy of strict honesty toward the Indians.

Winslow and others had taken this corn with the intention of paying for it as soon as they should discover the owner, and this intention they carried out. in the spring they were visited by the Indian chiefs Samoset. Squanto and Massasoit, to whom they gave liberal gifts; and they made with Massasoit, the principal chief of the country, a treaty of friendship, which was so faithfully kept on the part of the pil grims, that thev eaioyed unbroken peace with the Indians for twenty fourvears. During all that feriod. I l', 1 r' bucio iuuiiiiu.il luivaiwugG ui good offices between the two races.

If the Indians taught the white men to put a fish in every hill of corn, the whites supplied the Indians with hoes, which enabled them to raise twice as much corn as they had formerly done. hen tne corn was planted and are that a in growing well, Edward Winslow and i of hi friends. irtii.li hva i ed Indian, made a journey, fortv miles into the wilderness, to pay a visit to i Massasoit, with a view to confirm liiui his peaceful Intentions. The chief received them well, and fed them upon corn bread and broiled shad roes delicious fare in the woods to hung- I men. if there had only been enough i It.

The chief's larder, However, was but meacerlv furnished. Wins low gave him a horseman's coat of red cloth and a suit of clothes, which the chief put on with great exultation, especially the flaming red coat. When the harvest came iu the fall thev found that, bv carefully attend ing to the directions of the Indians, they had raised corn eneugh to afford each person through the winter a peck of meal a week. By the third harvest they begau to have corn to spare; so that the more industrious of their abundance to the newcomers, to passing fishermen and to Indians. There being few human inhabitants New England then, the number of the ed jump times A urday of a was is rebels under have the wild animals was marvellous.

Thto the firm friendship of the colonists with the Indians, they were able to procure wonderful supplies of beaver skins for exportation to England. They would send in one ship as much as three thousand pounds weight of beaver skins, the best of which was worth in England twenty shillings a pound. As many as three hundred otter skins were sometimes sent in a single vessel. The trade, conducted chiefly by Winslow, produced so large a revenue, that when the colony was twenty-two years old it had paid its debts, bought its independence of the London Conrpany, brought over a considerable number of their poorer brethren from Holland, and possessed sufficient capital to carry on a vigorous commerce with the Dutch in New York, with their friends at Boston, and with the fishing fleet off the coasts of Maine and Newfoundland. They went so far as to establish storehouses on the coast of Maine, well supplied with goods for trade with the fishermen and the French.

One of these storehouses was captured by a party of Frenchmen, and the Plymouth plantation was strong enough to send a three hundred ton vessel to retake it. Thus began the contest between New England and Canada, which ended only with the conquest of Canada, a hundred and fifty years after. The extensive commerce of the Plymouth people with the mother country compelled Governor Winslow to make frequent voyages thither. On his return from his first voyage, in 1624, he brought with him three heifers and a bull, the first cattle ever imported mtoJNew England. In three years, by the natural increase of these and by fresh importations, there were cattle enough to supply the whole colony with a little milk and butter.

They then divided themselves into twelve families, or companies of thirteen persons each, and to each company was assigned two goats, a milch cow, and two or three cattle not immediately productive, such as heifers, steers and bulls. In this way everybody bore part of the burden, and enjoyed part of the benefit. Shares in the family herd or in single animals were bought and sold. Thus, for example, as I read in the records at Plymouth, under date of January 20th, 1627: "Edward Winslow hath sold unto Captain Myles Standish his six shares in the red cow, for and in consideration of five pounds ten shillings, to be paid in corn at the rate of six shillings, per bushel." Another entry begins thus "Abraham Pierce hath sold unto Captain Myles Standish two shares in the red cow, for and in consideration of two ewe lambs, the one to be delivered at the time of weaning this present year and the other at the same time anno. 1628." In this beautifully sensible and just manner the Pilgrim Fathers managed all their affairs, Edward Winslow being evidently the leading busiuess man of the colony, which he served also for many years as governor.

During one of his visits to England in 16 15, he as representing a I'uritan colony, fell under the displeasure of the Archbishop of Canterbury. The Archbishop arraigned him on the charge of preachingwithont ordination or license. He replied, very modestly, that in the infancy of the colony, when there was no minister in Plymouth, hedid "exercise his gift to help the edification of his breth ren." The archbishop also accused him of having performed the cere mony of marriage. He did not deny that in his character as magistrate he had married some couples, and main tained before tbe archbishop that marriage was a civil covenant, and added that he found no warrant in the Bible for the performance of the mar riage ceremony by a clergyman. ''Besides." said he, "we were ne- cessiated so to do, having for a long time together at nrst no minister.

Besides, it is no new thing, for I was so married myself in Holland by the magistrates in their to tad This defence did not avail. He was committed to the Fleet prison, and remained in confinement for four months, to the great damage of the plantation, which had to pay his expenses and to suffer the loss of his services. At a later date, when the Puritans were in power in England. the Protector Cromwell gave him an honorable charge as one of three commissioners to estimate the value of some English ships destroyed by Danish forces in the West Indies. On the voyage, near Jamaica, he was taken sick and died, in the sixty-first year of his age.

He was the flrst, and not the least able of the many bund-reds of bold, originating men of business which New England has nurtured or produced. A singular financial transaction occurred in one of the dock offices a day two since, tiy some means or other it happened that the otl'ce boy owed one of the clerks three cents, the clerk owed the cashier two cents, and the cashier owed the office boy two cents. One day last week the office boy having a cent in his pocket concluded to diminish his debt, and therefore handed the nickel over to the clerk, who, turn, paid half of his debt by giving the coin to the cashier. The latter banded the cent back to the office boy, remarking, "Now I only owe you one cent." The office boy again passed the cent to the clerk, who passed it to the cashier, who passed it back the office boy, and the latter individual squared all accounts by paying to the clerk, thereby discharging I bus it may be seen entire debt. how great a benefit may be derived from a single cent if only expended judiciously.
