WOMEN'S SUFFRAGE.

[TO THE EDITOR OF THE " spEcTATos.1

Szn,—In your remarks on this subject, in your issue of June 27, you state that the Women's Suffrage party do not care about Mr. Forsyth's Bill. Permit me to explain that this is a misappre- hension. All the societies and committees throughout the country, recognising the fact that the practical operation of Mr. Forsyth's Bill would be identical with that of the Bill introduced by Mr. Jacob Bright, have accepted the former, as proposed to be amended by Mr. Forsyth in committee, and are supporting it with all their strength. There are some individual dissentients, including one or two prominent and influential friends, who have, to our regret, fallen from the ranks; but the great body of the party are march- ing on, in unbroken order, in support of the measure now before the House of Commons.—I am, Sir, &c.,
