WOMAN'S RIGHTS.

One Of the first and most pernic-
iouA fruits of the French Revolution of
93 was tie triumph of "wom.n's
rights and the consequent unsexing
OF women, aud the natural results Of
the measure, AS recorded by the histo-
rian, make US shudder with horror even
at this remote date, as We read of the
Strong minded" furiea sitting with
their knitting around the ,caffoIds drip
ping with the best blood of France! !
Even the ferocious radicals of that day
became disguised with the consequence
Of their wild legislation, and we're COM
PEELED to repeal the bill Of emanoip.-
ton and restore woman to the place
assigned her by natare. In tho last
seventy years no better rebuke has
been given to the clamors Of the "strong
minded" than that Of Chaumette in
his speech in opposition to the 10.
mans emancipation act. "Sinee when
has it become proper for women to sbsn-
don the pious care of the household
aud the cradles of their children to in
trude themselves in public places, to
thrust themselves forward at public
meetings, to appear 1t the bar Of tho
Senate and even in our armies, thus
arrogating to themselves the duties A.
signed by nature to man alonel To
whom has nature, our common mother,
con6ded the gentle duties of the do
mestlc hearth2 Is it to Us, fellow cit
liens? Has she provided rs With
those generous fountains from which
the new oorn babe sucks the stream of
life J.? Has she endowed Us With the
gentle qualities necessary to the sd-
mlnistration Of the household No !
She said to man, be a man The dan
gers Of war, the perils of the chase, the
labors of agriculture, political strife,
heavy toll, these are your allotment.
"She said to woman, bo . woman !
The sweet anxieties of maternity, tho
tender nurture of helpless infants, tho
details of the households, let those be
your care. But these engrossins du-
ties faithfully performed, merit re-
ward. You shall have it You will
become the presiding deity Of the do
mestic saucturary,yo will reign over al
who surround you through the irresisti-
BILE charms OF beauty, grace snd vir-
tue.
Crash, imprudent women who wish
to become men have you not your full
share in the divine dlspensation p
What more would you have!
''To make woman respected she must
be forced to respect herself. As wo
vencrate the vlrtuous mother whose
happiness is centred in the bosom of
her family, whose chief pleasure is rear
ing her children aud in making happy
the home of her husband, SO should ws
condemn and despise the woman vhe
exchanges the chrmswith which na-
ture has endowed her for . pair OF
breeches too tight in the seat. ."-7a!t;

And beat thereon sorrowful gaze:

And turning away, lie wept as he said:

montana wonders.

The following items pertaining to
Montana are from the Pick and PtoW:
Aspecies of sugar maple is found IN
the canons Of Montana, and 1t has been
ascertained that its sap is as strongly
saccharine as the sap of the Eastern
sugar maple.
Many have seen and admired the rock
globes found on the Cannon Ball river,
which empties into the Missouri. They
are perfect spheres, varying in size from
marbles to many pounds weight. Broken
open, the center is found to closely re-
semble iron ore, and they give forth an
unmistakable metallic ring when struck
with hammer. Another stream has
been found in Casters Montana in which
these wonders abound The popular
notion of their formation is that they
are the result of descending lava, which
has been thrown up to an immense hight
by volcanic cOnvulsions-the same physi-
cal law acting that is applied in the
mannfacture of shot. FI4Iti
The county about the Great Geysers
Of the Upper Yellowstone is filed with
cougars, or mountain lions-next to the
grizzly the most dangerous and ferocious
animals of North America. They bur
row in the earth but will climb trees
with the agility of timber squirrel, and
run fast enough to capture the mountain
hare in a fair race.

How One of Gambetta's Eyes was
Bnl ONT.

A correspondent relates the following
story about NJ. Gambetta: He has lost
an eye; they say so, at least, and Ger
tainly there is something queer about
one of his eyes; but, however, this is
the story: When a boy, Gambetta was
sent by his father to a Jesuit's college,
where he was to be educated. 1t would
seem little Gambetta had even then a
strong dislike for Jesuits, so he requested
his father to withdraw him from that
school. His father, however, not harken-
ing to his request, the boy declared that
if he were not taken away by a certain
day he would put out one of his eyes.
The father did not for an instant be-
lieve the lad capable of perform
ing the threat, and did not give the
matter a second thought. However, a
few DAYS afterwards he received letter
from the principal of the school inform
ing him that the boy had put out one of
his eyes. The father went to see his
son, but still refused to take him home,
upon which young Gambetta declared
that unless he did take him home he
would put out the other eye. Upon this
the father thought it advisable to give in.
Gambetta's admirers cite this as an in
stance of the mans preeoeious deter
mination and frmness of character;
others, however, cannot see in it anything
but an evidence Of an undisciplined and
unruly spirit, which has not improved
since.

The Late Gen. Prim.

Don Juan Prim, Conde de 'Reus, died
on the 29th ult at Madrid, in his fifty
sixth year. He was born in 1914, the
very year that saw the restoration of
that dynasty it had been over
thrown by Napoleon (which, five and
fifty years later, he said should never
again be restored to the Spanish throne,
after he had taken q leading part in
eifecting its second exile. He was a
native Of Catalonia.
Juan Prim entered the Spanish army
when about eighteen years old. When
the civil war broke out in 1888, the con-
test between the Christinos and the Car
lists, he was a warm supporter of the
cause of Isabella Ii, and soon distin-
guished himself in the sanguinary fight
ing that took place, in which quarter
was seldom asked and rarely granted.
Promotion came fast when men we're so
rapidly expended as they were in those
days, and he soon attained to the rank
of General, though very young. His
native province was the scene of his
earlier exploits, but it was not long be-
fore he became known to his entire coun-
trymen as an able soldier and gallant
leader.
He suppressed an insurrection in Cat
alonia in lS43 showing great vigor, and
obtaining for his reward the title of Con-
de de Reus.
In the war that Spain made against
Morocco, in lS59-60. he had important
commands, and greatly distinguished
himself, the success of the Spaniards
being largely due to his exertions. He
commanded the force that Spain sent to
Mexico, in connection with French and
English forces, but he refused to be a
party to the designs of the French EN-
peror in that country, and concluded a
treaty with Mexico, the effect Of which
was the withdrawal of England and
Spain from the alliance; and he vigor-
ously showed up the purpose of Napo-
leon Ill
During the latter years of the reign OF
Isabella ii, General Prim became very
conspicuous as leader of the opposition
to the vicious policy of that sovereign,
and, in consequence, a few months be
fore the outbreak of the revolution oi
1869, he became an exile. But he kept
up close connection with the enemies
ofthe Queen, and was in Spain in time to
take a prominent part in the movement
that proved so fatal to the Bourbons.

How n Texas WOIpan Persuaded

rode into village in that region few
DAYS ago, and alighting from her horse
vent rapidly to a drinking saloon where
a number of sovereigns were having n
"high time" She singled out the finest
looking man in the crowd, and, walking
mn to him, seized him by the arm and
ordered him to put down the glass be was
about to drain. He dashed down the
glass and rushed away; the lady followed,
and finally cornered him in the billiard
room. 1,
She told him in a firm and determined
voice that the place he was in, and the
course he was pursuing, would not an

ing her property, and that she would no
Longer consent to be disgraced and I'M

and presented it at him, and told him he
must leave or die. &c concluded TO
leave. She marched him out as prls-
oner of war to where his horse was
hitched, ordered him to mount, and IN Il
few minutes the two were leaving town,
the wife riding in the rear of her captured
lord. with his six-shooter in her hand.
