RED CLOUD disdains the proffers Of Friend
Janney, one of the Quaker superintendents
on behalf of the Pawnees, that q treaty of
peace shall be made between that tribe and
the Sioux. 1t is hard enough for Red Cloud
and his warriors to surrender their aboriginal
privilege of scalping white men, and it is by
no means certain that they have yet wrought
themselves up to this heroic point of abnega-
ton. When they are urged, in addition, to
forego the liberty of skinning the heads of
another Indian tribe, they feel that this is
entirely too much to expect of savage nature.
The universe loses all its charms for the am
bilious Indian when scalps cease to be acces-
sible Happy hunting grounds, where he can
merely kill wild animals, although desirable
in themselves, can never compensate for the
absence of opportunities of gloating in the
slaughter of beings in human form. When
the savage suppresses his longings for these
bloody trophies the work of civilization is
more than half accomplished, but it requires
ages of culture to extinguish them.

CoNnlUNICATIoNs.- We have received
several communications this week for
publication which we shall have to de
fer, our columns being SO crowded as
to make it necessary. One was handed
in merely to fill up" and we would
take this opportunity to inform such
that when we get so hard up that we
must accept articles to ''fll up" we will
let them know Locals are scarce, we ad-
mit, but anything which we consider of
such little interest to our readers that we
are requested to take it merely to fill
up" we shall refuse and give the vacant
space to the recording of some Chicago
divorce case III preference. Local items
en- almost any subject of general interest
will be gladly accepted, and we wish our
friends, especially in the country, would
send in more of them.

CoAsTNG.-[f there is such a thing
in our village as Marshal, or person
whose duty it is to see that the safety of
our citizens is cared for, we should think
the practice Of coasting on our sidewalks
would be abated The walks on Eighth

express purpose Of furnishing boys
place for this, to them, amusement. We
know there is Marshal In Man;towoc
who gets paid for services which should
be rendered. but never are Either COM
pei him to do his duty and abate this
nuisance, Or else get some one appointed
who will stop this dangerous practice.
We are heartily sick of this, and think

on the part of the "Bund'' is most
praiseworthy, and we are sure our o;ti-
zens viii give Hearty response by filing
the Hall to OVERLOOKING.
T. S.-Since the above was in type we
learn from an advertisement sent in, that
the concert is to be given next Saturday
evening at Turner Rail, and that both
our brass bands will take part in it. This
will be a musical treat such as our citi-
zcns rarely have an opportunity to par
take of, and we hespeak for Mr. Vein

the universal sympathy of our people.

LIBEb.-Wej just learn that the demo
cratic proprietor of the democratic Nord
Hesjei5 advises the late Clerk of our
Circuit Court to commence action against
Mr.. L. Sherman and ourselves for SANDER
in the remarks on said Francl, in our last
week IS issue. Now ism t that nice =? Why
doesn't Schmidt carry out that advice for
his own benefit? has not he been charged
with swindling our County year after year
with his German printing bill obtained
by brides and batteries and which cost
our taxpayers already over eight thor-
sand dollars and another thousand for
this year? Hasn't he been before the
Grand jury more than once to give tes-
timony in regard to bribing County Su-
perYisors and got out by claiming the
statute provision that no man can be
compelled to crin,inatc hinaself?
Why doesn't he commence an action
for SANDER himself instead of trying to
get Francl into deeper water still than he
is already? Why. Mr.. Francl is a perfect
gentleman, an unspotted Saint compared
with Schmidt. IF he did think the
County would not feel it if he stole 80 or
40 dollars and did the is honest enough
yet. to acknowledge it.
But Schmidt who swindles the County
year after year, cody pockets every charge
against him as cody as he pockets the
money, claims even to be entitled to still
greater reward for his eminent services
to the democratic party, and gets At too,
by being elected one of the representa-
tives of Manitowoc County; in consequence
of which the capital and capitol of Wis
consin will be made unsafe and the chief
elements of his consumption will ad-
vance in prices during his stay at Madison.
Really such matters can only happen
in Manitowoc; whether the people Of
our County will ever wake up sufficiently
to GUST all such offenders, we almost begin
to doubt. But as our taxes are increas.
ing from year to year, we shall soon have
either to leave or burst. And those who
can are leaving already as fast as possible.
What an internal blight this democrat
has got to be, is almost
beyond description.

A SURPRISE PARTY.-New Years

were suddenly aroused by score of
familiar voices shouting under our win
dows Happy New Year! We wish
you Happy New Year!''
sDrang to the door to see what all
this could mean. It did not take long
to solve the mystery: My scholars had
come in body to surprise and make me
happy, and most effectually did they ac-
complish their design. But one sur
prise was not enough. After the greet
ings were over one of the young ladies
I would say one of the best scholars,
only they are all best-stepped up and
presented me with an elegant silver
goblet and begged me to accept it as
mark of esteem from my scholars Nor
was Mrs. NJ. who had assisted me a
portion Of the time in the school, forgot
ten. A most beautiful call hell was
placed In her hand as memento of their
affection. Words are inadequate to ex-
press the emotion we felt, and I will not
attempt it. We did the best we could
to make it pleasant for them. They
were happy, too, and the more they en-
joyed themselves the better [ felt ; and
indeed before they had been with us
fifteen miuutes-so it seemed to me-
the clock said the hour and half which
their parents had permitted them to stay
was up, and like all good children, the
desire of their parents was law to them.
And so the sleighs were brought around,
the good bye's said, and away they went
as happy lot as you ever saw.
And when they were gone and the
house was still my thoughts went back
a quarter Of a century when too was
happy school boy. [ thought of my
school mates, Of their promise then, and
how that promise had been fulfilled.
Some arc prosperous, Others not some
have made their mark in the world and
others have ingiorious'y failed. Many
have gone to that "hourne from whence
no traveller returns" and those who
live are in the sober years of life or walk
ing its declining path. And as [ thought
of all this wondered which of the dear
ones who that night came to make me
| happy would be here after the lapse of
another quarter Of century to be think
ing as [ was then, of their school
days of their hopes and happiness,
of their trials and disappointments,
and all the vicissitudes of life
which they had been called upon
to pass through; and [ earnestly prayed
that they might SO order their lives from
this time onward that no spot or blenl-
ish upon their characters should mar the
pleasure Of the retrospect
And to this end [ trust that hence
forth, as hitherto, they will put forth
every effort to attain that position in life
which is grandest, noblest, and best
that Of true men and true women, ard !
pledge to them my best efforts to help
them on the way.

GREEN BAY.-The Aduocate tells of
an ingenious invention Icalled ''stave
stitcher" the Joint invention of Hon.
VIM. B. Ogden and d. Clint Prescott, and
manufactured by D. Clint Prescott &
Co., at the Marinette Iron Works. The
object of the Machine is to turn to &C
count the pine edgings from the saw mill
which have heretofore been of little
value. 1t is not yet perfected, some
little details having to be changed, but
its success is an established fact. The
machine will take in four edgings, at
once. which by ono motion in running
through are planed on both sides, given
the necessary curve. trimmed at the
edges, and cut off into stages of any
length desired. The slaves have a
smooth and finished appearance when they
| leave the machine. Such a machine
must come into general use in localitie.
where saw mills are as abundant as in our
county.
