A Observation-Disclosures chariyaring
Bozenian, and he mani er in which they are
conducted is truly annoying to the quiet
portion OF orr community. Not satisfied
with the ordinary implements which usually
characterize this disgraceful custom, our
Bozeman charivarists use cannon and ring
ailcc. The one which occurred here on Mon
day night last was particularly -eprehensible
from the fact that our people were excited
over the Indian raid near this place few
days previous, and knowing that Indians
still lurked in the vicinity, the sudden firing
OF artillery in town, and the ringing OF the
church bell, after most of our citizens had
retired. Without any warning, caused many
to believe that the town had heen attacked
by Indians, or that a fire had broken out
Many persons in the country hi'ched up their
teams and brought their families to town,
under tile impression that the Indians had
made raid in the Valley. The scouts sent
out a few days previous heard the cannonad-
ing and cane in. snpposing the Indians had
given them tn; slip and had got in
the valley. Under any circumstances, cha
rivaring is not only violation OF law. And
should be stopped. We do not believe that
those who participate in them really know
what cIarivarlis is. 1t was performed in the
middle ages whenever an old man married il
young girl, or When man married for the
second or third time. or generally when i'll
assorted marriages took place. 1t was in
terded rs an insult to the married couple

party OF gentlemen who had been ST ht-see-
ing 1T the Geysers. They were Judge II.
Knowles. Judge Newcomer, Granville Stuart

Dickinson. They were all in excellent
condition. and spoke in rapturous terms of
the Geysers, and were well pleased with the
looks OF Bozeman. We hope TO see very soon
a graphic description of the wonders OF the
Yellowstone from the p II OF our gifted friend
Granville Stuart He has the right kind OF
sentiment and ability to portray the magniii-
cence Of the Geysers.

Bozeman Female Seminary.

This institution is now in successful opera
ton, Miss Nj. Gertrude Crirtenden, Principal.
We had very pleasant visit to the school on
ined in Geography and Arithmetic. The
scholars displayed aptness and interest III
their studies. We were proud to see d repre-
sentative Of nearly every family in Bozeman
in this pleasant school room. which has been
newly fitted up. 1t took us back to the hall
cyon days of youth. when cares were few and
bright views of the future predominated.
No citizen visiting this interesting school bnt
will leave 1t with feelings refreshed and ex-
perieEce delightful glow of pleasure and
satisfaction. The Principal is earnest in her
noble work, and the scholars are responsive
to her efforts in imparting to them all the ele-
ments OF good education. Heraim appears
to do good in her vocation, ana make noble
men and women OF her scholars Possessed
as 81 Is Of al the qualifications to teach, SHE
adds to 1t profound sense OF her obligations
in moral ard religious sense. and we have
rarely met with school. where so good an
opportunity is offered to educate in proper
manner children who will assume In few
years the responsible duties OF life. The
number of scholars is limited to TWENTY-FIVE;
there are now sixteen in attendance. We
cannot doubt that the Academy viii be flied
to its limit in a few weeks. We are highly
pleased to see this beginning, and hope be-
lore another year, that the Principal will be |
able to open much larger Academy, thus |
enabling greater number to avail themselves
Of the high advantages offered in any school
IF which size may be the Principal, for we
'egard Miss Cfittenden teacher OF u superior

The District Fair, composed OF Madison,

The Directors of the Association have been
busy for some time past in arranging mat
tiers to make the coming fair complete sue
cess. We possess in an emiaent degree all
the elements necessary to make good far.
and 1t only remains for the people to interest
themselves in tins matter TO realize the frui-
zion of all we have heretofore predicted iela-
tive to the capacity of our soil Tor agricul-
tural purposes and our Territory for stock
raising. Daring the past year great improy-
ment has been made in our stock, and no
new Territory has male more rapid progress
in all the varied industries than has Montana
since its settlement. Our native productions
are superior to any State or Territory in the
Union, and we know of no better method to
inspire our people with a generous rivalry,
by which our resources will be NOR. system
atically and thoroughly developed, than BY
lively competition at our County and Terri
toral Fairs for premiums. Its true that the
intrinsic yafsse. OF the premiums. in many in
stances, will hardly cover the expense Of at
1enknS the fair with our productions, but
the sense of being superior to our neiglcors
in the matter of raising stock and cuitivating
the cereals. &C., should alone inspire our peo-
pie with laudable ambition.
1t il time for our farmers to realize the fact
that we have the best valley In the West; that
in two years their value will be increased !
fiye-fold bp the approach OF the Northern Pa /
cific Railroad, and that it is their duty to
hush the cry OF hard times; accept tlle pres

age immigration, and go to work earnestly |
and intelligently to make our coming fair
what il should be-a substantial showing of /
our wonderful section. !
