Probable Origin of the Mounds
Along the Wisconsin River.
WYOMING, January IS, 1872.

WYOMING, January Is, 1877.
Many have been the speculations in re-
gard to these mounds, and probably as
unsatisfactory conclusions deduced as up
on any other subject so shrouded in mys-
terry. From different stand points differ
ent views have been taken, but we should
prefer the one herein given. They speak
in a language not to be mistaken of peo'
pie long since extinct, and of their inteli-
gence as that of no mean order. TO the
careful reader, or the soldier, the civil en-
cheering is not inferior to that of the
present day, every available position being
occupied. They have evidently been a
defence against an invading foe from the
north. Their arrangement, position, and
the remains of human beings found in
them prove this. From south of Spring
Green to about mile below Avoca, they
are the most interesting within our imme-
date reach. To the lovers of curiosities
it would be pleasure and profit to exam
inc them, but especially to the soldier.
On the bluff jutting back from the river
south of Spring Green, in narrow pass,
there are, so to speak, two 5reastworks
commanding the pass. AS we travel down
the river they occur in every advantage
Gus position, from the double line cross
fire single line, to the vidette, until you
come to Cave Rock. There we find five
mounds of various sizes, evidently where
artillery have been, and could be success
| fully worked. 1t has every appearance Of
having been the headquarters of large
division of an army. From there we pass
them as before described, scattered along
the main land, until we reach the last
point named; there they are five lines
deep. In the valley Of Otter Greek, back
of Cave Rock, are a few well defined re-
mains of the many corn fields once there.
But, ere long oblivion will cover them as
it is fast doing the others. E.E.B B.

Literary Society.

The meeting last We dnesday evening
was more largely attended than ever be-
fore. The peculiar question for discus
sion brought out many that had. not pre-
viously attended, and much interest was
felt during the discussion.
The meeting was called to order by the
President, Mr.. Thomas Thomas.
Miss Lena Northey read selection, en-
titled "The Bachelors Cane .Bottomed
Chair" followed by a poem, -" The Cor
dian Knot" by NJ. I. Curry. This poem
was we'll written and we'll rendered, and
was we'll received by the audience.
The question for discussion was,
Resolved, That the Order of Coed Templars is q
detriment to the cause of Temperance.
The Chair then appointed the following
as Judges, to decide. according to the
weight of argument offered in the debate
E. T. Wrigglesw orth, Miss Priscilla Ed
wards and E. H. McElhose.
The disputants on the Affirmative were
M. j. Briggs, j. j. Hoskins, NJ. I. Curry
and 0. @. Smith. Negatlve-Robert G
Owens, E. j. Robinson, Jacob Van Doozer
VIM. Hendy and Thomas Arthur.
M. j. Briggs opened the debate in I
very creditable manner, though rather
lengthy. He was followed by Jacob Var
Doozer, who made some very good hits
which were very amusing to the audience
The two speeches occupied so mucl
time that it was thought best to adjourn
and resume the same subject on mex
Wednesday evening.

Bishop Arm1tage Dead.
[From the Milwaukee Wisconsin, Dec. 8

From the Milwaukee Wisconsin, Dec. ST.
The first public lntimaticn that
Bishop A"nitNsn was dangerously i'll
was given yesterday morning in the
Episcopal churches, when the rectors
announced the fact and offered pray
ers tor his recovery. In the after
noon DR.. Ashley received teiegr am
conveying the sad intelligence that
the esteemed Bishop was dead. The
dispatch stated that the death oc-
Cured at B o'clock A. NJ, but it would
seem that this must mean 3 o'clock
P. M.-tor surely the announcement
would have been earlier made had
the sad fact occurred in the early
morning.
Bishop Armitage died at st. Luke's
Hospital, New York city. He had
been suffering from tumor in the
region of the spine, and entered the
hospital on Thursday last for surgi-
cal treatment. An operation was
performed, but afterwards The Bish-
op sank rapidly.
He went East a short tlme since
in the interest of his diocese. and
became so seriously effected by his
complaint that immediate treatment
was found necessary.
William Edmond Armitage was
born in New York City, September
9th 1880, and was consequently a
trifle over 43 years of age at the time
of his death. He graduated from
Columbia College in 1849, at the
age of 10. This early accomplish
ment of the course of collegiate stu,
dy gives clear idea OF the remarka.-
bic scholarly abilities of the deceas
ed. In 1852 he graduated from the
Theological Seminary and was or
dained. His early ministry was sue
cessfully carried on in New Hamp-
shire and Maine; in a few years he
removed to Detroit and assumed
charge of St. Johns Church in that
city, which charge he retained until
elected Assistant Bishop of Wiscon>
sin in June 1866 He assumed his
new position in January 1867, and
upon the death of the lamented ven.
cradle Bishop Kemper, about three |
years later, he assumed charge of the |
diocese of Wisconsin.
Since then his residence has been
in this city, and his life and works
are too well known to our citizens to
need rehearsi9g here. He was an
eloquent and powerful pulpit orator,
q genial companion, and a warm,
true friend. He was much beloved
in his dicoese, which be worked
and successfully to inn
prove. The news of his unexpected
death, cutting him off in the very
prime Of his manhood and strength.
will cause profound sorrow.
His wife was with him in his ILL
ness, and that this comfort was gran.
ed him is cause for thankfulness.
We understand that the remains
If Bishop Armitage will be taken to
Detroit and inferred there in the
amily vault. The funeral will prob
IDLY take place on Thursday of this
week, and will be observed in the
Episcopal churches in this city

THE CUBAN CASE.
Our Government n OF at all Confident that Spain
Can Garry Out Her Agreement.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5.-The diplo.
matte branch of our Government is
not so hopeful now as it was several
days ago of the ability of Spain to
carry out its orders The suggestion
of modification Of the protocol, that
the Virginius may be delivered to a
third party toawait adjudication, does
not at present meet any official fa-
vor. The statement as published to.
day, that there was not one United
States naval vessel at Havana yes
torday, is accounted for BY the fact
that it was part Of the arrange
ment between Secretary Fish and
the Spanish Minister that there be
no show Of menace on our part,
which could not fail to increase the
excitement at Havana and else
whero in Cuba; while the plan of
release was intended to be effected
yesterday in the quietest manner
possible.
Preparations to enforce settlement
of the Cuban question with our army
and navy, in ca sc Spain failed TO
keep her promise, have been contin-
ued. The Secretaries of the Navy
and State were in conference last
evening concerning the proper dis
tributon of our fleet in Cuban wa
ters. Heavy ordinance is being trans
ported through this city enroute for
defense of the Potomac. The morn
ing's Cuban news hastens these
preparations, and shows, in the esti-
nation of prominent gentlemen here,
the wisdom of President Grant in
continuing them even after Spain
had promised to accept our modified
ultimaton.

The Cost Of Defeat.

The partial success which the
democratic party has met with in
tne recent elections, has had the
tendency to deveIope few of the,
schemes which have laid dormant
since the close of the war. The as.
sumption Of the Southern States
deots, the refunding Of the cotton
tax, the payment by the nation for
damage and destruction of private
property in the South during the
war, and an allowance of $500, 0OO.-
OOO Tor the slaves set free, are among
few Of the schemes to bankrupt
the national treasury under Demo
cratic rule. If the recent election
showed an increase of Democratic
strength we should feel alarmed in
view Of the danger ahead. But the
vote of the party has fallen so far
below the vote of 1872 that we are
safe in saying that the Democracy is
no stronger than it has been. We
lost few states because our friends
were sleeping. The large majority of
last year had the usual result, and
as in the past years were followed
by feeling of apathy which led to
defeat, where victory ought to have
been secured. Aside from the NOR
al effect there is nothing vital lost to
our party by the loss Of New York,
Ohio or Wisconsin. We need few
reverses to teach us the necessity Of
activity, Of thorough organization
and of sleepless vigilance.

The Chief Justiceship.

The President has appointed the
present Attorney General, George
IL. Williams, TO the office Of Chief
Justice of the Supreme Court Thir-
ty years ago he was practicing
lawyer in Ohio, and in 1913 was
elected Judge 10 the First Judicial
District OF that State: He was
Presidential electOr in 1852, and
from President Pierce, received, in
1853, the appointment Of Chief
Justice OF Oregon. and was reap
appointed by Buchanan 10 1857, but
resigned. He was a member Of the
Constitutional Convention Of Oregon,
and was elected Senator from that
State in 1864, serving full term of
six years. He was appointed a
member of the Joint High Commits
sion which prepared the Alabama
claims treaty with Groat Britain.
Upon the resignation Of Judge Ac-
herman he was made Attorney Gen.
etal from which position he is now
promoted to the Chief Justiceship.
General Bristow, prominent law
yer of Kentucky, and gallant
Union officer in the late war, has
boen nominated by the President
to succeed Williams in the Attorney
GeneraIship.

Back Pay Record of the Parties.


The Democratic Reform Party
has put itself on record in Congress
as in favor of the salary grab, and
hereafter let us hear no more from
Democrats about political purity
In the Democratic caucus proceeding
the election of Speaker Of the House,
there was a stormy time. Holman,
Of Indiana, introduced q resolution
eondemning the back pay business
and all who dabbled in it, and nom-
mated as the anti grab Democratic
candidate for Speaker Sunset Cox,
Of New York. A row ensued not un-
like the one described by Milton
when Satan was dethroned. The
Democratic grabbers couldn't stand
the repeal of the salary law. Cox
was cast out, and Fernando Wood,
the chiefest grabber Of them all
who voted for and took the swag--
was nominated the Democratic Can.
didate for Speaker, In the Republic
can Caucus at the same time there
was a spirited deb ate upon the same
issue. The members with few ox-
captions favoring the report OF the
whole law. About thirty PROPOSE
tious were made for the repeal OF
the law, many covering the same
gcOund. In the debate Mr.. Hale
wanted an expression OF the caucus
that the salary measure should be
repealed; Mr.. Kasson wished both
the salary Of the members, and the
Is per cent. voted employees repeal
ed; Mr.. Walls, of Florida, moved to
repeal;the Presidents increase; Mr.
Lawrence. Of Ohio, moved to retain
the present salary for the President
and Supreme Court Justices; Mr.
Townsend, Of Pennsylvania, moved
to amend by fxng the pay at 81, OOO
and actual expenses, instead of mile
age, Mr.. Hawey, of Connecticut
moved to reduce the salary TO the
former sum. % reduce the increase
80 employees, and to have the reduc.
ton take place on the 4th OF March
1874; Mr. Kelley moved TO refer
every thing TO the Judiciary Com
mittee without debate. Gen. Neg
10y spoke in favor OF keeping the
pay where il is. General Butler said
he hadn't been able to conviHce his
constituents that it was right to
keep il, and he was for repeal, and
for compelling all who took it to re-
turn il. Messrs Tremain, Garfield
aud Schofeld advocated repeal
Several OF the cOOred men. ia fact
nearly all Southern members spoke
in favor Of the present law, but the
new members from the North were
strongly 10 favor Of repeal.
