for the only result must be to divert and draw
votee from the Bepublican party ; and it looks
to me as if this was the object As you call
this a 9orr-fuai ticket, I want an exception

with any such arrangement. When I am tired

Beventeen mounds have recently been dis
covered ou the farm of M A. Morton in Wyom
ing township, Kent county. At a recent session
of the Kent Scientific Institute 1'rof. K. A.
Strong gave it as his opinion that the mounds
were fully 500 years old, judging from the
trees growing upon them. Remains of cloth
were found which was clearly woven and not
netted Several vases of unique construction
were found, the use of which was not clear,
thero being some doubt as to whether they
were drinking cups or cinerary urns. They
were tuado, bethought, ot a tine grained sili
coous clay, and adornod by sculptures that
indicated a high degree of skill. These were,
howevir. not carved, but produced by impres
sions mad, upon the material while in a plastic
state.
Mb. F.ditob i While our friends Tom, Dick
and the Courier are trying to frighten us out
of our " Woman Suffrage notions," by tho
stale assertion, that man would cease to be
gallant to woman if she had the ballot, the
Cci ner giveB us a specimen of the gallantry
wh. h wo are in such imminent danger of
losiij. In speaking of Mrs. Malley, he says i
" She was not so generally appreciated as waB
Miss Cozzena there is a greater charm about
a young unmarried lady, than clings to an
elderly married one, especially if physical com
liness is wanting." Webster defines gallantry
thus : " Bravery, generosity, civility." And
vas it really bravery in the editor of the
Courier lo intrench himself behind his own
youth and beauty and fire paper wads at Mrs.
M alloy after she was -o far away that she
could not defend herself ? Wan it m rous to
assert that sue was one of a class of women
who " If tho laws of nature would admit,
would the soonest become a man ? And was
it even civil to insinuate that her lecture con
tained Woodhull doctrines, when nothing could
be farther from tbo truth P Then he wants to
know why it ib, " that the Suffrage Association
of Michigan must import soni" one to plead its
cause ?" Well now really tho fact ia wo
wore not aware that we had dona bo. In our
feminiue ignorance wo had always supposed
that Missouri and Indiana were parts and
parcels of our own dear native laud ; that any
other view of the caso .would place ub outside
of the Republican party, aud brand us as ad
vocates of " States Righta " and " Secession."
But if we aro mistaken in our views, and it
wouldn't be very naughty for us to know, wil1
the Courier please tell us just who are our
countrywomen and who are not. Ami.

We have been so very busy lately, that send
ing items to yon has escaped our mind. Events
are happening every day in Keeler even, that
ought to go in the paper. For instance there
was a young girl buried at the village yester
day, who had boen betrayed by some scoun
drel, and after giving birth to a child whde
alone in her room, died. I want to Bay to that
man, for I hope be will see those lines; thou
double murderer, there can bo no punishment
too great for tbee. Who can estimate the sor
rows of that bereaved family, yet, the seducer,
if he be rich with mammon, the world will fawn
upon him, oven give him a high seat at their
feasts. h women, 1 call upon you, denounce
this man wherever you may find him be he rich
or poor, and when you get the privelege of the
ballot, mark such men, give them not even a
show at the caucus. Let the element be puri
fied. I et virtue be the rule and not the ex
ception. We woro well entertained by Mies "Rhoda"
of your town at our little vdlage las week, also
Mrs. Malloy spoke with earnestness and to the
point. 1 was glad to hear her give so much
credit to the mm, 1 think she must have a good
husband. I think onr women speakers miss
their mark when they berate the men and try
to sbow womens superiority. We all know
that some women are superior to some men.
but take us all in all, 1 think tho greatest pride
of a woman's heart is to feel that her husband
is her superior. That need not make a woman
dopenduut upon her lord for every thought ex
pressed or untxptessod, not at all. A true man
admires bis wifo's sagaciiy and wifely human
ity Now my strong-minded msters. if you
have husbauds, use your strength with discre
tion, and all will be well, otherwise vou may
come to grief. Now another thought, aud this
comes rather late for tins election, as it will be
past oro this sees the light, but if wo Tail to
morrow, mayhap we may fall back on this sug
gestion, viz : Let the woman use the ballot to
decide this question for themselves. Why
should the men decide for intelligent wornou f
We are not babies, neither dolls or slaves, but
the better-half of man and a help-mate as the
Script . ire saith. Have not women always acted
kef part well wherever she has been placed,
then why not give her a widor range, and trust
to her fidelity and good sonee to decide this
very interesting question for herself.
