own domestic happiness had not lost the feeling of citizen-life, had not ceased to sympathise with their less fortunate sisters; there was Channing with his noble and pure countenance glowing with inspiration; there was the earnest President of the Association, the good Marcus, and many others, in whom I recognised the representatives of the highest conscience of humanity.
As I cast my eyes around they fell upon a picture, the only one in the room; it was a beautiful engraving representing the Dance of the Hours around the flower-strewn car of Time. I thought of Geijer; of the prophetic visions and dreams in which this true seer beheld the advance of the new time and hailed it with rejoicing shortly before he quitted this earthly scene. Oh! that he had been here; that he had heard and seen the time here arrived of which he had dreamed and spoken so rapturously, unintelligibly to many, yet not so to me, in his last moments. The memory of him; of the past, the impression of the present, of the future; took hold upon me with almost overwhelming power.
Excepting the speech of Channing the meeting did not produce anything which remained in my memory. The subjects which were here touched upon will be still further pursued and developed at the great Woman's Convention which will be held in the beginning of October, at Worcester, in Massachusetts, and which will be attended by many of the members now here present, my friends, Marcus and Rebecca, among the rest. They wish me also to be there, and I would very gladly, but on the 13th instant, I must leave America for Europe. I must see England in my return, and I should, in that case, be too long detained from home.
Whilst I am on the subject of Woman's position in society, and Women's Rights' Conventions, I will say a few words about them. I am very glad of the latter, because they cause many facts and many good thoughts
