LETTER FROM BUCksPORT.
BUCksPoRT, Anil 26th. ]

BUCksPoRT, April 26th. 1870.
The Young ladies and gentlemen Of The East
Maine Conference Seminary, have recently interest
ed our people with public meetings and exercises
by he Societies composed of the students at The in.
Stltution. On the evening of the sth, the Young
gentlemen Of the Calorhetorian Society gave their
entertainment, consisting of defamation diSserta-
ton, reading of newspaper, &c. It was very
amusing, especially where shafts were aimed at
the Eulalion Society, composed of the Young
ladies'.
On the 18th, the EnlaonS gave a Very fine
evenings entertainment, similar in character to
that of the 9Th, in which the proficiency and train
ing OF the students was very creditably displayed.
All the shafts of fun which the young gentlemen
sent at them were repaid with interest
We regret that we are obliged to omit the very
full particulars of the above, sent nv our cores
pondent The demand upon our columns calls for
such condensation that we cannot find space for
them.
The Annual Exhibition of the Seminary will
take place May 4th and 9Th. The Bangor Band is
engaged for the occasion The subject of a me-
mortal 10 our dead soldiers now interests our
citizens. We have raised by Fairs, Exhibitions, and
otherwise, quite fund, but as the first money was
raised for Memorial Hall, and the idea of a Mon
nment Is now thought to be more suitable, there
will, presume, be meeting called to ask those
persons who contributed for Hall to waive that
consideration in favor o. the latter suggestion.
| am assured that an offer has been made by a
party of gentlemen to donate half acre of land,
located in the center Ola beautiful tract Of fifteen
acres in area the whole Of which il i proposed to
lay out d cemetery. This place is but three
fourhS of mile from the village and on the line Of
the Bangor Il. r., as surveyed. II is hoped that
this offer will be accepted, that convenient
place may be secured, where the services of decora
ton day can be held, without trampling under foot
the graves of our loved friends, as has beeu the
ease heretofore in the old cemetery. The proposed
name for the new lot is ''Memoral Park Cemetery -
The lecture the surrender of Lee, hy Gov.
Chamberlain, announced for the evening Of the 10Th
did not take place. as the stormy weather prevented
the Governors arrival. II will he given on The

PROGRESS OF WOMEN'S RIGHTS.

The experiment of having women on the
grand and petit iuries has been tried in
Wyoming Territory We find some account
OF the matter in the Cincinnati Enquirer
Judge Howe, in whose court the system WAS
| inaugurated, writes to Mrs Broadwcll, of
Chicago, that the mixed jury was a success.
He says
after the grand jury had been in session two
days. the 1ance-house keepers gamblers and de1ai-
monte fled out OF the city to escape the indictments
of the women grand jurors
lie speaks in the highest terms of the fe-
male petit iuries. remarking that ''they were
careful, painstaking, intelligent and conser-
vative," and that eater three OF four crimi
nal trials the lawyers engaged in defending
persons accused of crime began to avail
themselves of the right of peremptory chal-
lenge to get rid of the women Jurors. who
We're too much in favor of enforcing the laws
and furnishing crime to suit the interest of
their clients"
Here we have a toreshadowing ofthc' good
time coming" when the female SEX under
the principle of Woman's Rights, shall take
tl tcllNt part Ill lne government. Iflpn VIII
not the keepers of coffiee-houses. of ganb-
ling dens and of other places of resort that
win the affections Of their husbands and
fathers from them, have to look out The
flight from the female wrath, in these respects
will be immense. The ladies will make spe-
cialties of these crimes and vices, and liter
ally show them no quarter. There are many
in these avoctions who have spoken light and
jestingly of the female movement, but they
will find in the sequel that it is no Joke, and
that it will strike them very hard As to the
practical obstacles in the way, which we in
our innocence had supposed to be something,
the Judge found no difficulty in surrounding
them. lie did not at night lock up the six
men and the six women together, but gave
them separate rooms, where the women were
under the charge of a woman bailff, and the
men under the custody of the Sheriff In the
morning the two halves of the jury were GOT
together and verdicts agreed upon.

The long and lingering war between Bra
I'll and Paraguay is ended, After resistance
such as the world has seldom seen, the Para
guayan forces have been overcome, the coun-
try subdued, and Lopez killed. There is great
eXultation at Rio Janeiro. One of the Brazil
ian papers says
1.-The Paraguayan people are reduced to an eighth
part of their original number. The wealth of the
country has been dsspated, and there are not
means sufficient to sustain the few that survive.
The prediction of Lopez has been verified which he
made to General Mtre during their interview at
Jatay Cora, that Paraguay would be 'amountain of
ruins before it should fall into the hands of the al
lies, The Paraguayns who died in combat. gave up
their lives with valor and abnegaton seldom rival
ed. Others died from sickness and want; others
persisted on the gallows, sacrificed without pity by
the order Of Lopez himself. The history of the su
fering of this people is the history of martyrlom
