TIE wonAr's JouRSAL.-The friends Of woman
suffrage, who wish to keep the issue clear from
entangiinR alliances with other reforms and the
endless host of individual whins and vagaries-
who would pursue 1t with the same singleness OF
aim that marks the movement in England, and
the temperance and other special reforns In this
country, have established a weekly paper, the
Womes's Journal, published in Boston and Chi
cago, and edited by Mrs. Livermore, Mrs. Lucy
Stone, Mrs. Julia Ward Howe, MIR. VIM. Lloyd
Garrison, and Mr.. T. w. Higginson, assisted by
accomplished friends of the cause. The no
appearance while the variety and spirit of its
articles, and the dignity, self-respect, good
humor, and earnestness of it's tone, will shoV
how profoundly mistaken are those who suppose
that folly and extravaganza are necessarily char
acteristic of the discussion of the question. The
Journal is Indispensable to those who would
truly understand the character of the movement
and measure its progress.--Harper's Weekly.

The Miners Strike.

DETROIT, Mich, May l6.-Informatiou from
Houghton, received last pight, regarding the
strike Of the copper miners, states that Tues
day morning portion Of the men who were
satisfied with the terms offered, announced
their desire to resume work. Upon proceed
ing to do SO they were interfered with, when
the sheriff summoned one hundred special de-
puties from among the citizens of Hancock
and Houghton to protect the worknen. Four
of the leaders Of the strikers were arrested and
placed under guard of sixteen armed men to be
conveyed to Jail at Houghton, sixteen miles
distant.
The discontented miners rallied and overlook
the sheriff's party mile from Calumet and
rescued the prisoners. The strikers, who num-
bcred fully six hundred, made threats Of forcl:
be resistance in case the authorities attempted
interference with them Many women joined
IN the attack upon the guard
At meeting OF the strikers held on Tuesday
afternoon, few Of them were in favor OF re-
suning work, expressing the belief that all that
could reasonably be asked, had been complied
with by the mining superiutendents. The ma
iority thought otherwise and decided not to
work except on the eight-hour rule All are
satisfied with the wages offered. The arrival
of troops is anxiously awaited, and the expcc-
tation of their presence has already had some
effect.
At the Pemaleck, Schoocraft, Franklin and
Quincy mines some men have returned to work,
and as far as heard from were not interfered
with. \ few are clamorous and inclined to be
boisterous. AS rule the strikers are
quite firm in their demands The leaders
counsel temperance and sobricty, which
up to the present time has not been
nirnged No injury has been done to property.
The total number of persons now engaged in
the strike, and will not themselves work or per-
NIT OILERS to do SO, is 1000
