The river Rhine, which takes
its rise in the mountain region
of Switzerland, touches the
west coast of France at Basle,
and then skirts it past the city
ofStrasbhrg to Carlsruhc. Here
it enters German territory,
within which it flows nearly
southwark to a point a few
miles north Of Emerich. It
thence runs nearly east, through
Holland, into the Germalt
Ocean, nearly on the same pars
allel of latitude as London,
England. At a point near
Carlsluhe the French boundary
line leaves the Rhine, and runs
across the continent, a little
north of east, into the English
channel. At Luxemburg an
other territory dividing line
skirts the west side Of Belgium,
running nearly due north to
the Rhine just below Emerichs
That portion of Prussia through
which the Rhine passes Is usp-
ally called Rhehish Prussia. A
right line from Carlsruhe to
Emclich would pass nearly
through the middle of the
length of that portion Of Prus-
sia which lies on the left (east)
bank of the Rhine. All that
part of this territory which lies
south Of the river Moselle; is
called Rhenish Bavaria.

No question is attracting
more attention at the present
time than that of loaning the
credit Of the people to corpor.
ations. In nearly every State
in the Union the question is
being more or less considered,
and discussed. The people of
Illinois have recently had the
question submitted them i'll
the form of a separate clause
to their new Constitution
Their verdict is not to be mis-
understood. The clause pro-

" The independent and the Won,aa,
Journal, both profess to desire that the arti.
Gle which appeared in this paper as A We.
mans Opinion" should be published in con,
neetion with Mr.. Wizards reply to it, and
circulated through the State and country a,
a tract. If this is done, we trust that the
slight justice will be given Of publishing the
whole Of the article to which Mr.. Willard
makes so long a reply, and that it will be
published separately, and not injected like
veins of gold into so large a mass Of ainty
rock. We know that these aminm of GOLD
give all its value to the huge piece of quartz,
but still we think the lady is entitled to have
her opinion published entire and by itself as
she wrote it, and not be put to the disadvant.
age of having it picked into small pieces. and
its fragments inserted into the body of her
opponents argument. We hope, however.
that 1t will be done, at any rate, and in any
way And perhaps it may be well to add to
this proposed tract" the Comments on
Comments" which we publish to-day. 1t
will be seen that Mr. Wizards extreme oour.
tesy has not dimmed the brightness, nor duled
the keenness of her sword He is evidently
not dealing with man Of straw" IL our
principle was not so firmly fixed to give the
ballot to the women when they want it, we
should certainly be inclined to give it at once
to those who do not want it, i. g. if in this
matter, ability and intelligence were the re.
quisites.

WHAT THE Wourv SAY.-Some women in
School District No. II, in Royalton, have Of
their own motion, made canvass to ascer.
tain how many women over eighteen years Of
age, arc in the district, and what their wishes
are upon the question Of Woman Suffrage
For this purpose, two papers were written
one a petition for, the other remonstrance
and protest against such amendment of the
Constitution as would extend the right Of
Suffrage to women. Their papers have been
circulated and the result is as follows; No.
Of women over eighteen years of age, in said
district, r. Number to whom the papers
were not presented, they being absent from
home, 3. Number declining to sign either
paper, o. Number who signed the petition,
,, Number who signed the remonstraace CD.
On the 10th instant, one of the committee
men Of School District No. 8, in Hinesburgh,
while attending to other duties for the dis
trict which led him to visit each family, made
n careful canvass of the district on the cues
ton of woman suffrage, so far as the opinions
and desires Of the women are concerned
There are in the district % women over 81
years of age; IS of these are decidedly op.
posed to having the suffrage added to their
duties and were glad to have an opportunity
to make known their views three were in
favor OF woman suffrage one would not ex-
press her views.
A gentleman in Burlington has put the
question to seventy ladies, without finding
one who wishes to vote. So says the Free
Press.
