Elizabeth Institute
FOR YOUNG LADIES.

TN view of the proposed increased educational
advantages for boys in this city, the Trustees of
the Elizabeth Institute will receive Boys, during
the next year, in the Primary Department alone.
In consequence of parting with so large num-
Der of pupils it is necessary to raise the terms for
tuition in order that those remaining should still
receive the same advantages as before. The re-
cepts for tution will all be expended, as hereto
fore in providing instruction of superior charac-
ter in all the several departments of the Institute.
The methods adopted will continue to be such as
to secure old-fashioned thoroughness of study, in
connection with the many attractive features of
more modern modes of drawing out the mind and
communicating knowledge.
Special attention. during the coming year. will be
given in the advanced class, to the g Chemis
try of Common Life" and to other branches of
Hygiene and Domestic Science-seeking in this
way for our daughters some systematic prepara-
ton for the practical and honorable duties of daily
home life.
Lessons in Sewing, Drawing Vocal Music, Elo-
cution, and Gymnastics. together with Lectures on
on History, or on other topics, by competent Pro-
fessors will continue to be given without ext
charge, so far as the number of pupils attending
the Institutelshall warrant the outlay.
Special lessons in any Language or branch re-
quired can, however, be furnished ut any time on
moderate terms

r is7ed houses there. erected embank
ments as foundations, built their houses
upon them, and then raised walls upon
the embankments and around their
homes, constituting Notifications and
means OF securjt~ against neighbors who
were probably re warlkie than their
neigh bors.
The mounds are now usually some
five or SIX feet above the country sur
rounding, and must, ages ago, have been
elevated several feet higher, so that,
with the wall above. which was six feet
high, a formidable means of defense
would exist against the rude weapons
Of warfare which the Indians possessed.
They are Of such dimensions as to area,
that villages of 1000 or l,200 souls each
could have had their homes upon the
SUBMITS Of the embank ments.
In many Of the mounds have been
found the remains ofthe dead, with or
naments weapons, utensils, etc but this
proves nothing against Mr.. Morgan S
theory, as it was the custom of the In
dians to bury their dead, especially dis
tingulshed men, only little way from
the homes of the living and it is agreed
by all mound explorers that but very
small portions Of the mounds are occu-
pied as cemeteries. The whole subject
of the history and customs of the Abor-
igines is certainly one Of deep interest,
and is a cause of congratulation that in
yestigations of the matter are being
pushed forward by so many persons, and
with so much energy and learning.

Discovery Of an Inland Sea.

& despatch to a Boston paper says
that a geogra phical discovery that viii
rather astonish map publishers. has been
made in the country north of Lake Su-
perior, by party under Prof. Bell, which
was recently engaged in geographical
survey in that region. Lake Neepigon,
living only thirty miles north Of Lake
Superior, hitherto considered too insig-
nifcant to find place in American atals-
es, is announced by the professor to be
larger than Lake Ontario or Erie. He
had traversed five hundred miles of its
coast when the approach of winter COM
PEELED the party tc return to Canada.
This lake discharges its water into Lake
Superior by the Neepigon rivera broad
rapid stream, and is the seventh in num-
Der and possible the second in size Of the
chain of lakes which form so remarkable
a feature in the geography Of North
America. That the existence Of this in
land sea should have remained unknown
to this time is most remarkable, consider
ing how near 1t lays to Lake Superior.
As it receives its waters from upward
of dozen considerable rivers, it is not
improbable that the system Of lakes be-
gining with Lake Ontarior, may extend
miles further to the north. This will add
one more link to the great lake change
and damage the nomenclature Of Lake
Superior, surprising it also in interest
iu q swarm picturesque little island
which dot the surface of its water.

WAR IN AFRICA.-The English pa
pels have intelligence ola fierce battle
between the rival ciefs Oko Jumbo and
ia ia, at Bonny. on the west coast of
Africa. The fight lasted for nearly sc
hours and the slaughter on both sides
was terrific, ended in the total defeat of
ia JAS troops aud the capture by Oko
Jumbo Of 70 guns of different caliber.
The destruction of the town of Bonny
was almost complete, one side Of il being
entirely swept away and demolished,
while other parts were in state ofwreck.
The guns which ranged from sc to SO
pounds, were fired at the extraordinary
short raage of 160 yards, with heavy
charges of grape and canister, and the
havoc was fearful. The bush was
crowded with fugitives-men, women
and children-many Of them being woun-
ded in shocking manner, Hundreds OF
dead and wounded were lying about the
beach While numbers of dead bodies,
in clusters Of three and four, were float
ing in the creek. 1t was stated that ia ia
had about 500 men killed outright and
about three times as many put horse dc
