to so along on a second trial
About the time the bodies were
reached a pony was shot, and both
Indians, then thoroughly democrat
lied, made for cover and reached
it in safety. One thing is an abso-
lutte certainty, and that is the fact
that the Sioux had staked great
deal on this battle, and that their
fighting was, consequently, little
less than savage frenzy or the
fighting of demons.
"Our troops fired over ten thou
sand rounds of ammunition, and
it is believed the Sioux discharged
from a third to a half more. Be-
hind ledge of rocks from where
a band of them fired for a little
over half an hour, about peck of
cartridge shells were found, and
other places of conceal,nent were
strewn with them almost MS thickly.
Many of these were the long, hard
shooting Sharps, which show an
other decided advantage they have
over our troops. But the marvel
of it is how so much ammunition
could be expended with so little
loss of lie to our force. Dodging
and skulking, and scattering out,
as the savages always do, we could
not expect to hand them a very
long mortality list; but not pos
sessing that snake-like faculty OF
being where we are not, or not be-
ing just where we are supposed to
be, it is to see why an average In
dian marksman could not kill but
once in thousand shots"

tellIgence of some of the most Gull
tlvated and refined women in the
land. 1t is no small task to excel
in this vocation. Many wives and
mothers perform otinferior labors
IN the conduct of their homes to
what their husbands display in
managing their business affairs;
and they deserve equal, if not
greater, credit for the results of
their labors. ?
Again, what better preparation
could be devised for a married life
than to know how to conduct a
household successfully-not stint
ingly, nor yet with extravaganza,
but fully approaching the value of
economy, order, variety and health |?
A bride at the altar, who feels a
consciousness of her capacity to
conduct her husbands home in a
thorough and systematic manner,
has decided advantage over an
other who lacks these advantages.
How many famous men have owed
a large share of their success to
their wives? In short. marriage
is apt to make or mar mans flu
ture, and all depends on the char
acter or capacity of the wife.
The equality which the cham
pions of woman suffrage seek is
but an empty name compared with
that real equality in marriage
where husband and wife each feel
and acknowledge the others quail
fcations. Marriage then becomes
a true partnership, and both men,
bers contribute equally to its pros
perity and advancement. To Sc
cure this rare happiness, train
your daughters up in such man.
ner that they will both desire to
help their husbands, and know
how to do SO when the time comes.

The Great Scandal Again.

N. Y. Sun, 10th ult.
Mr.. Sherman yesterday served
on Gen. Roger A. Pryor, counsel
for Francis d. Moulton, Mr.. Beech
er's answer to the complaint in
the suit of malicious prosecution
which was begun last December.
MIR. Sherman, after consulta-
ton with Mr.. Beecher, determined
to risk the trial of the merits of
the case rather than allow it to 90
by default to the Sheriff 8 jury,
that he might appeal from the
judgment and test the question of
bis late demurrer in the Court of
Appeals. If he fails to outwit Gen.
Pryor and Gen. B. F. Butler in
the trial of the cause he can 90 to
the Court of Appeals on the jury's
verdict. In Mr.. Beecher's answer
he denies every accusation con-
tanned in Mr.. Moulton's complaint
that he, with malicious intent to
injure him in his good name and
credit, to bring him into public
disgrace, to cause him to be i'm
prisoned, and to subject him to
trouble and expense, had gone be-
fore the Grand Jury, and falsely
and maliciously, and without any
reasonable or probable cause what
soever, procured an Indictment
against the plaintiff for having ut
tered and published of and con-
corning the defendant certain
criminal libels. which charge the
defendant knew was wholly fine
and untrue. The answer admits
that the defendant did, on Oct. 3,
1874, go before the Grand Jury
and testify that certain criminal
hbels uttered and published of
himself were utterly false.
Mr.. Beecher furthermore denies
that the plaintiff was ready or anx-
ious to stand trial on the indict-
ment mentioned in the complaint,
either at the time of pleading to
the same or for at least six months
afterward, and the defendant has
no knowledge, nor information
to form a belief, as to
The Colfax chronicle. (Colfax, Grant Parish, La.) 1876-1877, 1876-09-02

whether the plaintiff was ever
ready or anxious to stand trial
thereon. The answer in the third
paragraph denies that the defend
ant ever requested the District
Attorney of Kings county, OF any
person whatever, to make any mo-
ton, or take any step, concerning
a nolle prosequi, or concerning
any matter which makes srch an
accusation. The defendant fur
Their answers that he has no know
ledge, or information sufficient to
form a belief, that the Indictment
was transferred to the City Court,
or that any order was granted for
the entry of a nolle prosequi, or
that any such entry or record was
made as is described in the COM
plant. In conclusion, the defend
ant AYERS that his testimony before
the Grand Jury was true, and that
the prosecution referred to in the
complaint was founded upon rea-
sonable and probable cause.
The oath to the answer was
made the Sth of August in Peeks-
kill.
The case will be tried in the Su-
preme Court, and will probably be
on the October calendar. The
difficulty ofgetting jury in Kings
county will doubtless lead to a
motion for change of venue to
this city. Mr.. Moulton expects
to establish the truth of every allie
cation made in his published state
ment of the summer of 1874,
the charge involving Edna Dean
Proctor not excepted.

The Turks and Servians.

A recent dispatch to the London
Standard from Belgrade, says: 1t
is reported that the Turks have
advanced beyond Banja and that
the Servians evacuated that i'm
portant pass without firing shot.
1t is quite possible that the con-
slant rumors OF Turkish advances
and Servian retreats are exagger-
ated, but it cannot be denied that
the prospects of the Servians are
becoming more gloomy. The ru-
mors of their evacuation of the
de6les leading from Gurgusovatz
to Delgard, and from Saitchar to
Paratkin, though unconfrmed, is
highly probable.
If the Turks push forward, it is
more than likely that the ex-
pected great battle at Alexinatz or
Delgrad will never be fought. The
officials continue to assert their
ability to beat the Turks; never
theless CONSERVATION prevails and
must increase, as the number of
runaways increases in the streets.
A later dispatch to Reuters
Telegram Company, from lara,
the capital city of Dalmatia, an
nounces that an engagement took
place between the Montenegrins
and Turks near Kuci, lasting the
entire day. The Turks were re-
pulsed and pursued from Fundina
to Podgovitza. The Montene-
grins captured quantity of arms,
war material and several flags
The Turks lost many killed and
wounded.

One of Brigham Young's sons
is known as Prince Briggy. The
Gentiles explain that the title was
acquired several years ago, during
his sojourn in England. He rode
in a coach behind six gray horses,
and on one occasion his coachman,
while driving through the streets
OF London, disregarded the COM
mand of the Queens guards to
give road to her Royal Highness
and attendants. This led the off,
Ger in charge of the cavalcade to
ask the name Of the distinguish
ed stranger. The reply was, 'I'm
Prince Brigham, sir, of Utah"

Why Girls Should Learn to Keep
House.

Quite enough, says the House
keeper, has been said of the moral
obligation that girls are under to
master housekeeping. Such argu-
ments influence most persona but
little, and they are specially dis
tasteful to the young. Better
make task attractive than insist
upon it being viewed as duty.
Tell any one she ought to work,
and she naturally rebels; but show
that work brings independence
and comfort, and her energies are
stimulated.
Why not put the domestic prob
lem on the same status? Don't
force your daughters to learn to
cook, sweep, and sew, whether
they like it or not; but make them
feel that knowledge of these arts
is both useful and honorable. All
women are taught self-respect; but
is not respect based on practical
capacity and knowledge higher
than that which is the outgrowth
of nothingbut regard for personal
appearance.
A girl who has learned how va
rious foods ought to be cooked,
how beds should be made, how
carpets should be swept, how fur
niture should be busted, how
clothes should be repaired, turned,
altered, and renovated; how pur-
chases can be made to the best adj
vantage; who understands the
laying in of provisions, and how
to make them go the farthest and
last longest, may make herself val
ued and respected, either in the
position of daughter, sister, wife,
OR if dependent on strangers for
support
A woman who is merely a drone
retains her position in the family
circle only by sufferance. If she
is a busy bee, and can contribute
by her thought and labor to the
common veal, she need not claim
a position-it is already hers.
Many young persons are too
ambitious, and wrap up their hum
BILE talents in napkin. This is a
mistake. To know how to keep
house is not a mere bread and but
ter matter-it is an occupation
which has called out the best in :

The Sioux trail from this point
scatters ont eastward, and the
scouts yesterday discovered fresh
signs above the old ones indicating
a rear guard of the Sisux linger-
ing behind. who had probably dis
covered our approach from both
ends of the valley. 1t is believed
that they will endeavor to cross
the Yellowstone east of the mouth
of the Rosebud. General Miles,
with q detachment of infantry
and artillery, started last night to
proceed down the river on a
steamer from the mouth of the
Rosebud as a patrol to intercept
them. Another detachment of
Gen. Terry's infantry will guard
his supply train.
The rest of the combined forces
will move to-day upon the rear of,
the Sioux, taking rations for four
days. The supplies can be sent
back to meet them at any point on
the river. There is great uncer-
tainty regarding the enemy. It is
impossible to shape any conjecture
as to the occurrence of a fight.

The Catholic Telegraph of the
10th ult., contains an article from
Archbishop Purcell, addressed to
the people of the United States,
relative to the action of the Gath
Ole Church toward the publis
school system. He declares that
the Church has no disposition to
interfere with the system, and
says: "No doubt justice and
equality would entitle the Catholic
people of this country to exemp-
ton from taxation for the support
of other schools or to q share of
the public school funds in proper
ton to the number of pupils in
the schools, but even this we are
to waive in your favor. Z"

A REMEDY FOR CHoLERA.-The

of having at hand a good cholera
mixture, and none has proved
more effective than the one pub

of tincture of opium, red pepper,
rhubarb, peppermint and camphor.
1t is remedy for summer COM

Camp of Combined Yellowstone I
Forces, Aug. II, 1876.

Correspondence of the N. Y. Herald
Camp of Combined Yellowstone l
Forces, Aug. II, 1876.
The columns under Generals
Terry and Crook met yesterday al
noon in this valley, and will oper-
ate henceforth in union. The
southern force left its supply camp
on Goose Greek, August 5, where
it had been augmented by the ar
rival of the Fifth cavalry. The
route of the march was to Tongue
River, at the point where the
Sioux attacked the camp on June
10. and thence thirty miles north
eastward, where the column turn
ed to the north and crossed the
Panther Mountains to the Rose
bud.
A bivouac was made August
Sth, ten miles north of the battle
ground of June 18th. Next day
the great trail leading down the
valley showed signs of the move
ment of large numbers of Indians
over it about a week before-proba-
bly, the whole of Sitting Bulls
people. The count west of the
Rosebud has been utterly con-
sumed by confagration, and east
ward there are the same indica-
tions. The Sioux seem resolved
on abandoning all the region
south of the Yellowstone for the
present season. The traces of
their camps along the Rosebud
show that their ponies have nearly
starved, and that their own subsis-
tence has been'far from plentiful.
Trails from the Little Big Horn
join the grand trail, and it is prob
able that the pafties scattered
along the base of the Big Horn
Mountains during July concentra-
ted two weeks ago, and started
northward, leaving the hills and
valleys in flames. General Terry's
column was espied yesterday, at
ten O'Clock, by Buffalo Bill. It
was moving up the valley in line

ing mistaken this command for

The Centennial Exhibition at
Philadelphia, says the New York
Sun of a recent date, is more than
half over, and the total receipts so
far fail to reach one million dollars.
The capital invested in the enter
prise is $8,5O0,OOO. The running
expenses for the one hundred and
ffty-nine days are estimated by
competent judges to be about
$l,5OO,O0O. Therefore, to pay for
itself and return the money ad-
vanced by the Government and by
private subscribers to the stock,
the gross receipts must be S10,-
100000. In other words, the daily
attendance during the remaining
half of the Exhibition must be
nine times as great as it was dur
ing the first half. We do not
know how to express our admira-
ton for the hopeful cheerfalness
with which our Philadelphia
friends continue to speak Of the
enterprise as a financial success.

Cure FOR HYpRoPHoB1A. = Our
readers will thank us for the fol-
lowing sure preventive against
hydrophobia in dogs: Boil three
teaspoonsful of salt, and an ounce
of carbolic powder in a pint
of water, squeeze in q lemon, and
then let a piece of meat simmer in
the mixture to give it an attractive
taste. Take out the meat, and
put the liquid in a cool place.
Then, while remedy is cooling,
lead the dog out behind the barn
and shoot him between the eyes
with a Remington rife. One pint
of the liquid will be found enough
for Q hundred dogs.-Rome Sen
