One of the important works of the late
legislature was the removal of the United
States Court from Fargo to Bismarck-
important at least to the inhabitants OF
TIE two localities concerned. 1twas Col.
Robert Wilson's pet measure, He nurs-
ed # and nourished it nearly through the
session and when he finally consigned, It
to the care Of the lawmakers ne was
pretty Are it would stand alone. 1t not
only stood but walked through the var,
io,ls stages and came out full fedged
law. From that moment Col. Bob
was radiant with happinese for he knew
that Bismarcx would remark to him swell
done thou good and faithful servant. -

/ Haying an idle hour yesterday, Ilstray-
ed into the village SC hool. Tins school
is as old as the town, but unlike the 9TH
er institutions of our rapidly growing
city, It is a dwarf that neither expands
nor improves, nor yet gives promise OF
maturity 4 As to the IL underlying Causes
that have stllnted It's growth and hinder
ed its developement do not propose to
speak. Enough to say that they o'not
! LIE IN the school Itself. Here we have
the very best Of materials, the raw intel
lect as II were OF nearly three score score mer1 r
~, bright-faced lads and lasses, brlmlul Of

sizes and ages are represented. Here are
"a dozen or two OF the proyerbial bad buys,
each one the very pei sonitication OF s.:tNu
az1ve," with about the same number of
gig Cling hoy dens 0fthe other sex; flank
ed by anuneasy host OF little ones, The
..trunole bed trash, = OF the precinct, who
being OF legal age, must also go to school
Heaven Bless them all! But what words
can do Justice to such an assembtage?
Huddle a promiscuous crowd of children
Of varied ages and dispositions and grades
of advancement into dark i'll ventilated
room, aud the result Is an Il-assorted
muddle called school; but no teacher,
no matter h3w earnest, how accomplish
ed, how patient or how self denying can
deal successfully with such number.
Order, meIhod, quiet, classification,
all, or any OF these. are impossibilities.
WHAT we want, to begin with, is an infant
school composed Of the very little ones, a
sort of. .kintergarden, where the duties of
teacher blend imperceptibly into those
of the nurse-maid. ..t4i
: Place these tender little a-b-c-dareans
in separate room, under charge ola
.sym, ,,athetic teacher who knows how to
interest as well as instruct; let discipline
be a thing npieard of in this department,
but keep their little minds employed, as
well as amused and diverted, with simple
object lessons-with charts and spelling
blocks,-with vocal music and easy less
ons in drawing with states and pencils.
Then, for the ..big scholars, we want
a large airy and well lighted room; we
want absolute quiet and perfect disci-
5pline. The government Of the schoolroom
should be by kindness but back Of this
there should be compelling force. A
wholesome respect for lawful authority
should be early inculcated. Politeness
must not be neglected. All school vir-
tues should be fo>tered. By such mean
regular attendance, promptness, obedi-
ence, ruthfulness, earnestness, diligence.
This simple grading is very easily done
and need cost no more than the present
arrangement. AS for these incorrigible
bad boys, in my opinion hard study and
plenty Of it is the only discipline they re-
quire. Give them hard Sums" in arithma-
tic and algebra to wrestle with, and they
will have no leisure to concoct schemes
OF mischief. A boy whose mind is abb

THE PHILHARMONIC CLUB.-The con-
cert by this accomplished organization at
the Opera House last Tuesday night, was
all that it promised to be, the very best
instrumental music ever heard in this
city. 1t is possible that there are those
who will not coincide with this opinion,
but generally they are persons who them
selves confess that they are not compe-
tent to judge. TO the great majority of
those present the concert was a feast of
sweet sounds and harmony, which it
would have been great disappointment
not to have heard. The company are all
finished artists, and all that they do is
marked by perfect case and excellence.
The concerted pieces on the programme
were rendered with grand effect, full So
norous tone, with smoothness and precis-
ion, while the solos served to bring out
in brilliant style the individual excellen-
cies of the performers. Very seldom
have our citizens been favored with an
opportunity of hearing on the same even
ing such graceful and finished artists as
Messrs. Listeman, Belz, Weiner and Hart
degen. The organization that contains
such performers as these is not often
found. Such performances rs that of
Tuesday evening are of too seldom occur
renee in our city, They are in the high
est degree educating and refining, and if
We could have them more frequently,
their effect upon the public taste-lower-
ed by minstrel and juggling exhibitions
would be most salutary.

GRAVES AND LELAND were at Maquo.
keta last week, laboring in their especial
calling us evangelists. They were attend
ed with their usual success IN creating
an interest in holy things, and drawing
large crowds to their ministrations.
From the following extract, from an arti-
Gle Oh the revival in the columns of the
Excelsior, it will be observed, that an eff
fort was made to have it made conducive
to practical christianity, consideration
too often lost sight Of
If the Revival means anything it means
more honesty, more fidelity, more punctu
atty, more truth ON our lips, more purity
in our lives, as PROOFS that love to God
holds men to keep His commandments
If each man who reads this article and
thinks of an unpaid bill or an unkept
promise, will pay the bill Tor provide for
its PAYMENT and make good the promise
by twelve o'clock this Saturday night, he
will do much to make this awakening
genuine and general; and every man
who refuses thus to keep his promises
proves that he cares nothing about pleas
ing Il promise KEEPING God.

LOOK \ LEEDLE OUET.-Parties who
have been taking bass and pike from the
river, contrary to law, and relying for
immunity from prosecution upon the dis
inclination of their neighbors to make
complaint before magistrate, may read
with profit the following item from the
Anamosa Eureka. Somebody may write
to Fish Commissio ner Shaw:
Fish Commissioner B. F. Shaw author
ICES us to give notice that any person
who will furnish evideuce of the viola
ton of the law protecting bass and wall
eyed pike, will confer a favor. Mr.
Shaw is determined to see that the law is
enforced so far as it lies in his power
1t is great misfortune, and ought to be
so regarded by fishermen themselves,
that these splendid fish should be so
mercilessly slaughtered just before their
spawning season. BY waiting only the
brief space of five or six weeks millions
of spawn, from which should grow and
multiply our best supply Of fish several
years hence, would be saved to our
streams, and there would remain after
the spawning season just as many fish
for the hook or spear as before that per

MORE CANDIDATEs.-W. A. Jones, of
our city, thinks that justice was not done
him last week by the omission of his
name from the list Of those who aspire to
be nominated for Sheriff of this county.
The omission was not intentional and VIC
offer in explanation the fact that Mr..
Jones had told us personally,a few weeks
since, that he was not a candidate for any
Office, and seemed to take good deal of
pride in his position. But men have a
right to change their views, and so our
readers will please take notice that W.
A. Jones is a candidate for Sheriff. We
continue to hear vague rumors that other
parties than those already named, will
enter the contest for that office, but have
no authentic information that such is the
case.
For the Office of Superintendent Of
Schools, the present incumbent, Mr.. w.
E. Parker. will be a candidate for re-
nomination. We hear of 10 other names
as yet in this connection.

Dyspepsia and Liver Complaint in all its
forms, such as Sour Stomach, Costive-
ness, Sick Headache, palpitation of the
Heart, low spirits, &c, &c. Out of 3d.
600 dozen bottles sold last year, not a

A private letter from member of the
party from Independence, bound for the
Black Hills, contains some items that
may be of interest to some of cur readers
The letter is dated on steamboat on the
Mis- souri, River, a few miles below Fl.
Pierre. The writer says:
1--WE will arrive at Fl. Pierre to-day, if
we meet with no more delay We are
eight da Us out from Yankton. We took
the steamer, c. X. Peck, at Yankton.
She is the largest boat on the river, and
consequently makes slow time, as she
strikes sand bars very frequently. We
have made about % miles in day and a
half, and have been lodged on u
sand bar all day yesterday and this
forenoon We have 40 or so Black
Killers on board, and will have train of
about 500 when we reach Fl. Pierre
Indians are very numerous. Some of the
boys hair stands erect at the present
time from seeing about 800 of the reds
that were in the Custer massacre, just be-
low where we now are. The boat is
making preparations to move, and l must
close. We are all enjoying the best Of
health and spirits. Will write again
when we reach Deadwood."
