Of the prominent members of the last
Legislature, says OF the gentlemen from
this city:
HON. JOHN SCHUETTE,
OF Manltowoc county, made his first ap-
pearance in the Legislature this winter,
and Like a modest man, was quiet,
though attentive to duty. He is a
native of Germany; 3S years old, and
has been 81 years in the State.
HON. R. D. SMART,
OF Manitowoc, made some very neat
speeches and good hits. His presenta-
ton speech to Speaker Horn, at the
time the magnificent silver tea set was
presented, was one of the best things in
its way we ever heard. Mr.. Smart is
deservedly popular in his county, where
he prevailed against a Democratic
majority in 1872, in a contest for a
county office.

THE Zeita1'ag does the fair thing by
Representative Smart in the following
in it's issue yesterday:
We are ever ready to right any one
when he has been wronged in the
columns Of the Zsittolg. This seems 20
have been the case with our correspond
ent from Madison, during the session Of
the Legislature. Our correspondents
spoke of the bill for the extension Of
our city limits, which was in the hands
of our representative, Smart, and which
was not passed. The reason for the
non-passage of the bill was in no wise
caused by the opposition of Mr.. Smart
to the bill, but by the fact that the city
had not complied with the provisions of
the law, chapter 90, laws 1859. Conse-
quently the bill could not pass for thai
reason. We make this statement the
more willingly because we have always
looked upon Mr.. Smart as an upright
and honorable man, who had the interests
OF his constituents more at heart than
personal interests. In connection here
with we now demand that the Common
Council Immediately take the necessary
steps for the purpose Of making the an
nexation in question TO the city of Man
itOwoc.

Booue's marty soon found the trail,
and followed it rapidly. fearing that tho
GIRLS might grow weary and be put TO
death. All Sunday night and all = Won
day the pursuit was kept up. "a ues-
day morning slender col.mr OF smoke
was seen in the distance, and the eA-
periencei eye of the hunIer AT onoe
detected the camp of the Indians. a
serious difficulty now presented itsel;
Pow we're the csphves to be rescued
without giving tie captors Time to Kill
themp There was but little time for
reflection. as she Indians must quickly
discover their presence. The white
men were sure shots, and 50 they picked
their men, fred upon them, and then
rushed into the camp to the rescue, At
the moment of the attack the girls were
sitting at the foot of tree; Betsy with
red bandanna handkerchief thrown
over her head, while the heads of Fanny
and Jemima were reclining in her lap.
Betsy's olive complexion came near
serving her q bad turn at this juncture,
for one of the rescuing party coming
suddenly upon her mistook her for an
indian, and was about to knock hef
brains out with the butt of his rifle
when a friendly hsrd interviewed, and
saved the girl from meeting her death
just at the moment when she saw liberty
within her reach.
The fathers and gallants carried then

Brave Betsy Galloway became Mrs.

IT'S easy to trace the soul 10 the hour
That deprives the form of its breath;
But who shall follow the spirits flight,
When it seeks the portal OF death?
Who rend the vail that hiS.es from our view
The future, beyond the bright stars?
Who follow the spirits upward flight,
When it breaks through our earthly bars"
What-ah what is that future siate7
And where, oh where is the goal
Which Christians say is the resting place
And home Of the deafness soul,
Is it beyond the dark blue sky
Beyond where the stars now shine,
Where the angels sing their songs of praise
To the Spirit of Got divine?
Gan life be the end OF all our hopes?
Is the struggle with death all DER?
Or Is there n life beyond the tomb,
Where the FOUL lives evermore?
