According to the Laramie Sentinel woman
suffrage has not been failure in Wyoming
Territory. The Sentinel says: There are
here Blk or seven years ago, and can compare
it with the present, and though we might differ
somewhat as to the causes which have produced
this change for the better, yet we shall be able
to agree upon few facts. We never had a
term Of court here held IN decent and COM
Portable place, with its proceedings marked
throughout by decency and decorum, and di-
vested OF everything pertaining to levity and
blackguardism, till our ladies' were summoned
to attend and participate in it. We never had
a grand jury here who boldly and upfinchingly
took hold to investigate offenses against de-
cency and morality, and hunt out and bring Of
tenders to punishment, till we had q grand
jury composed largely OF ladies'. We had had
several terms OF court, but had scarcely been
able to convict or punish single criminal for
any crime, however heinous, through the medi-
um OF those courts, till we got junes composed
largely OF women. We did not have single
election here without Drunkenness rowdyism
quarreling, fighting AMI bloodshed, until oul
mothers, sisters and daughters were permitted
to accompany us to the polls. We well re-
member the time when many man stayed
away from the polls, losing his right Of citizen
ship, srather than encounter the danger anc
rowdyism he must meet in order to exercise it
But all this is changed. Our elections go of
as quietly as any other social gathering, M
matter how heated political campaign may be
or how important the issues at stake. And W,
eli point with pride to the result, whether o.
not we agree as to the cause which has pro

Mrs. b. c. johnson and Thomas Rockwell,
her brother, brought to our Office, this morn
ing, some very interesting relics, taken from a
mound in Hamilton, near Rabbit River. Allegan
County. The remains are portion OF skull,
and large quantity of teeth and other bones,
arrow-heads, etc., in remarkable state OF
preservation. The mound is described IS being
about the same size as the one in our park,
and on the top Of it grows au oak six feet in
circumference. The roots of this had sur
rounded the bones, etc. There were three lay
ers of bones, one above another, within the
mound. Tradition is Mrs. johnson tells us
Gas she has learned from her uncle who lives
near, that 200 or 800 years ago terrible battle
was fought here between the tribe then inhab-
ting this county, and large number Of Mis-
souri, Indians-the feud having sprung up from
most trivial event. There is evidence in the
vicinity, of earthworks having been thrown up
as defense A half-breed Indian, who still
lives in the vicinity has record, marks upor
the prepared skin OF an Indian, giving nara
tive OF this battle.-Kala mazoo Telegraph

A grave defect has been discovered in the
British Education act OF 1870. [ nder that act
school boards have the power to compel the at
tendance Of children at school until the age Of
thirteen. The common law, however, fixes the
age when girl may legally marry al twelve =
and 10 is seriously feared that under the educa-
con act cases may arise where the boards will
take married women from their homes and
compel them to attend school for another year.
such 1T least is the ironical view which the Pail
Mall Gazette takes Of the matter, in criticising
Lord Stanleya proposition to amend the act in
question by substituting for the word "chil-
lren" the phrase boys and unmarried women. u
