front with the declaration: "We are
even disposed to hold that the good of
society at large demands that, as a gen
eral thing, girls ought to have better
education than boys. Women have far
more influence upon people in general
society than men for purposes of moral,
mental, and aesthetic culture; while in the
training of their children, in the family
circle, their superiority is still more de-
cided. We do not speak here of the few
who are eminent in art, or letters, or
science, and who have had special uni
versity training, but of the educated
classes generally, including all those who
have pursued college or merely an
academic course. If, in institutions of
these grades, it were so ordered that the
State should educate either the men ex
clusively or the women exclusively, we
believe the common good would be most
promoted by the latter. Why not, then,
give them at least equal privileges?"

A Hint to PlOwmen.

1t often occurs in fall blowing that the
ground will be covered with few inches
of light snow; though the weather may
be quite cold the mantle of snow will
keep the turf from freezing, and it will
really be as easy blowing as at any time
in the season, except that the pillow wheel
will become loaded with snow, causing
the pillow to run at uneven depths.
have found very simple remedy, and
anyone who has been troubled in the
same way can learn by this trife of book
farming that he can fasten the wheel at
such time, causing it to slide instead
of roll. The pillow will then run again as
easily and correctly as ever. 1t often
happens also, when snow is on the ground
that the last furrow will be filled over
night with drifting snow, making it diff
ficult to start the plow, or if it is started,
making bad piece of work at the first
round; but this can easily be remedied
by hitching single horse to the pillow
and driving once around in the furrow.
This will clear it of snow, thus putting
it in good order for blowing again

Eyarts' Advice to an Office Seeker.

A young New Yorker called on Secre-
tary Evarts the other day with a letter
from prominent citizen of New York,
recommending him for a consulate
There were number of people present
at the time. The Secretary read the let.
ter and then glanced at the young man,
who presented the appearance of one in
the full glow of health. The Secretary
said: Well, really, should like to
oblige Mr.--, but you do not seem
delicate; you do not look as if you needed
to 60 abroad for your health. l do moi
like to see able-bodied young men &C
out of the country. There is such an
inviting field here for young men OF
energy and ambition. Mr.. says
you are an engineer. That is a good
profession and offers abundant oppor.
tunities for distinction; why not 60 to
work at it?" All this was said in a tone
of voice sufficiently loud to be heard by
every one in the room. The young New
Yorker showed very painful embarrass.
ment, and with his face covered with
bushes, backed out of the room. He
will not be apt to impcrtune Mr.. Evarts
for that consulate.

Emigration to Kansas or Texas.

The admirable arrangement adopted
by the Cleveland, Columbus, Cincinnati
~ indianapolis Railway Company for
transporting Colonies to the West and
Southwest during the spring of 1877,
gave such general satisfaction, that they
have decided to give to their patrons the
same facilities during the autumn of
1877. Their combined day and sleeping
colonist cars will run from Cleveland to
st. Louis without change, leaving Cleve-
land each Tuesday afternoon at 2:35 and
arriving at st. Louis at $50 next morn
ing in time for all Western and South
western connections. The C. c. c. & l.
is also the shortest route to Kansas, and
the only direct route to Texas points.
These cars are provided with large
stove adapted to heating water, so that
passengers can make their own tea and
coffee at their convenience, together with
tank and drain for drinking water and
purposes of ablution. Still further, the
seats are provided with movable con-
nection, so that when the backs of two
seats are turned to face each other, and
the connecting shelf is adjusted, a very
comfortable bunk may be made for the
night, with the aid of such outside cloth
ing and blankets as a discreet traveller
will provide himself with These con.
veniences are furnished without extra
cost to the passenger. For the exact
time and rates of fare apply at any sta
ton on their line, where through tickets
are sold. For any information regarding

household goods, address LUCIEN HILLS,

HELENA PRODUCE MARKET.

HELENA, January 20. 1877.
The state of the markets at this writing
is somewhat changed from that of last week.
The receipts of oats have been much larger
than any week previous, and while there
has been but a slight decline in the prices,
the trade has been quite dull. Several lots
which were in on Friday and Saturday were
hard to get rid of. Some of the sales at the
prices given below, were taken in trade, the
merchants showing considerable reluctance
in giving trade for 1T. Wheat is firm and
the demand is good. The flour market has
been rath er brisk, especially in NA SPRING
vile. 1t is now generally conceded that the
shipments reported to be en- route from Mis-
soula county will not get over the divide,
and that the present prices will continue.
The market for beeyes is dull. One lot
which arrived last week, which is being held
at 1915 per hundred, has not yet found buy
ers. A considerable quantity Of wild game
has been in the market at good prices.
