The Herald, in an article on hair, remarks that society is again anxious to cultivate luxuriant locks, and to banish certain shades of colour from existence. Whilst avoiding the grosser errors of the past, it has adopted practices, if anything, more objectionable than before, as shewn by the chemist and the test tube. There is one expression which has a very modern twang about it—that is, " hair restorers." A great deal of misconception prevails as to the nature and mode of action of these compounds." Few persons understand the properties of their coin ponents, and fewer still the effects which they produce. - It is a pity that the physiology of Bair doctors is of so crude a kind. It seems to be comprehended in the remarkably convenient and solitary ide4s that the hair is a tube through which ebb and flow cerfain nourishing juices ; but the hair is not in reality a tube : it is made up of cells loosely packed together in the centre, and of others more closely approximated and flattened out at the exterior, The hypothesis, therefore, that if the hair is cut the juices will escape, is ridiculous, and the practice consequent upon the acceptance of that belief, viz., that of singeing the hair to prevent the escape of the juices, is also founded in error. It is surprising that this should ever have found acceptance. Then, again, a host of remedies used to promote the re-g,rowth of the hair are stated to afford the true material which nourishes the hair. This is an equally absurd statemeot. "The blood is the life "of the hair as much as the flesh, and nature has only one way of preparing nourishment for the body in its different parts, hair included, and one channel by which it receives sup plies. But colour or quantity, gloss or curl, are now offered for the "paying." In fact, it i s qu it e true that the perfection of the art of hair -restoring has at length reached so great a pitch that hair revivers can positively restore the bald places on old-fashioned trunks or on worn-out boas. But, to be serious, " restorers" include two sets of remedies— those which act by restoring colour and those which promote the actual growth of hair. There are some restorers that are harmless, and others that may be hurtful. To point out the nature of these is the next point. Golden hair is produced in one or two different ways. When the mania for golden locks recently broke out, it was considered sufficient to remove the natural pigment by constant wash ing with an alkaline solution, such as potash ; the hair was then oiled and brightened up with subseque n t b rus hi ng. But this process was not considered sufficiently " heroic,"and th e aid of metallic preparations was enlisted. Th e compounds of tin, nitrate of lead, followed bya "mordant " ( or substance having an affinity for the hair and the colouring matter so as to combine the two) of chromate of potash ; iron with a mordant of soda or lime ; arsenic and am monia, and other substances have been employed for the purpose. Of late the golden yellow colour so much admired has been produced by the use of arsenic, with a mordant of what is termed hydrosulphuret of ammonia, and these substances act best on light hair. There is little doubt that it may give rise to injurious results. The production of the very light tints by caustic alkalis involves the destruction of the life of the hair, which may be regarded. after dyeing, as " d ea d . " T he golden brown hue results from the cautious use to brownish hair of the dyes just noticed, and the application of blue vitriol (copper), followed by that of ferrocyanide of potassium, has much the same effect. lied colour is readily induced. In Persia and the East, alkanna or henna is mostly employed. IRTNAHAN'S EXHIBITION. WIT I I B S 6S KY. - DUBLIN This celebrated OLD IRISH WHISKY gained the Dun, Prise Medal. It Pure.

The interest received during the year is £117,584 7s. 3d., arising from the productive portion of the realised assets of £2,897,157, mentioned in the last year's report. The whole assets, productive and unproductive, may there fore be considered as having improved at the rate of rather more than 4 per cent. ; or, if the profit shown of £46,070 13s. 3d., derived from various extraneous sources, be in cluded, at upwards of £sl2s_ per cent. The premiums on new assurances are £14,596 ls. 9d., and of this sum £3,270 15s. 4d. has been expended in re assurances. The claims on decease of lives assured are nearly iden tical in amount with those of 1866. They are less than those of last year by nearly £19,000. A considerable reduction, too, appears in the amount of premiums paid for re - assurance, many of the risks re-assured having terminated - by death and other causes. The expenses of management are less than those of last year by upwards of £1,400. But they still include charges incurred in the final closing of the two officeslast absorbed by the company. The whole expenditure, however, in cluding income tax, is at the rate of little more than 5Y per cent. on the total income. The balance-sheet is as follows : DR. LIABILITIES.

The usual monthly meeting of this society was held on Tuesday, at 12, St. James's-square, Colonel Sykes, M.P., in the chair. Amonst those present were Mr. Lowe, Chancellor of the Exehequer ; Mr. Childers, First Lord of the Admiralty; Mr. V. Harcourt, M.P., Dr. Farr, _ Dr. Guy, Dr. Clark, Mr. W. Newmarch, Mr. F. Preedy, Mr. S. Brown, president of the Institute of Actuaries, and others. A letter was read from Mr. W. E. Gladstone, the president of the society; stating that an engagement at ITawarden prevented his attendance that evening, and that he much regretted his inability to be present. Mr. P. DUDLEY BAXTER read a paper on the taxation and capital of the United Kingdom. He first considered the resources and territories of the United Kingdom. The United Kingdom, he said, was so populous and wealthy because she was the metropolis of a vast commerce ; and our existence as a wealthy nation depended upon our pre eminence. Whatever might h e th ecos t o f ma i n t a i n i ng t h at pre-ern in en ce,it m us tb e cheerf ull ypaid, as the truest national economy. The lecturer then dealt with -the principles of taxation, quoting Adam Smith, Jeremy Bentham, and .T. S. Mill. He modified Adam Smith's rules as follows:- 1. Expenditure on bare necessaries should be exempt from taxation. 2. Expenditure on bad habits may be heavily taxed. 3. On the rest of his income every man ought to he taxed in an equal percentage. 4. Taxes ought to be certain and uniform—not arbitrary and unequal. 5. Every tax ought to he levied at the time end in the manner most convenient to the contributor. 6. Every tax ought to take out of the pockets of the people as little as possible beyond its produce to the Treasury. Such a system might produce in the three examples above mentioned something like the following results, assuming that the taxpayers were men of moderate indulgence in the luxuries of their stations :—A wealthy man with £lO,OOO a year would pay 21,000; a professional man or tradesman with £soo' a year, £45 ; and a workman with 270 a year, £5. Th e diminution in favour of the temperate part of the community would under this system be paid by an increased taxation on the bad habits of the intemperate. The lecturer then contended that direct taxation by one tax was impracticable, and that a system of taxes was necessary. He examined the various methods of taxation, giving a slight sketch of their history, and proposed the following classification 1. Taxes on income and capital. 2. Licences or taxes on trades and professions. 3. Taxes on consumption of food and stimulants. 4. Rates on occupation and tolls. On the subject of taxation on individuals and classes, as the basis of his calculations he took a family of four, and three such families from the great classes of the nation— the upper, the middle, and the manual labour class. The family with £lO,OOO a year income paid in taxes on income, capital, and miscellaneous, -£738 ; the family with £5OO a-year, 226 10s. ; and the family with 270 a-year, nothing. The same families in taxes on food and stimulants paid £6l 35.. £lO 16s. 6:1., and £3 7s. 10d. ; and in local rates and tolls they would pay 2162, £l5 10s., and £1 12s. it thus followed that the at tual distribution of taxation in the United Kinedoin upon men of temperate habits was not very dissimilar to that already mentioned earlier in the le - einre, viz., the wealthy- man with £lO,OOO a year raid £960 ; the man with .E5OO a-year, £52; and the work man with £7O a year, £5. But besides this portion of the taxes, which provided for temperate indulgence in alcoholic drinks, there was a residue of taxation—more than £lo,Co),ooo—derived from these drinks sufficient to supply fifteen additional gallons of beer and nearly two-thirds of a gallon of proof spirits per head to 22,000,000 persons. The lecturer concluded by observing that the taxes in direct action did not appear to be inequitable to the working man, and by stating a variety of questions to be considered in a future paper. The CHAIRMAN spewed by statistics how much during the last fifteen years Mr. Gladstone's policy had done to diminish the taxation of the country, and thus to increase the comfort of the poorer classes. Mr. NEWMARCH pointed out the anomaly of real pro. perty paying no succession duty. Mr. ELLIOTT held that the incidence of taxation on those who were called poor was very light indeed, and that most of such people could reduce their consumption by one-half, and be the better for it. • Dr. GUY agreed with the last speaker, remarking that the poor were the most luxurious feeders under the sun. They denied themselves no gratification which the money they happened to have at the moment in their pockets would procure them, never looking forward to the future. Mr. V. HARCOURT, M.P., questioned the accuracy of some of Mr, Baxter's statistics relative to the expenditure of a family with an income of £lO,OOO a year ; and remarked that if they were amended the difference between 9A per cent. and the 101 per cent. paid by the middle-class fimily would rapidly disappear. Mr. GLOVER thought the poor man shared in a less degree in the benefits of government than the rich man and that therefore he ought to pay less in taxes. Mr. DILKE, Dr. FARR, and Dr. CAMPS continued the discussion. Mr. BAXTER, in reply, said he was of opinion that the poor man was more heavily taxed at the rate of 7 per cent. than the rich man. There were two ways of carrying out what Bentham wished : the first was, to exempt all with an income less than £5O a year, which was not practicable without direct taxation ; and the second was, to assess the poor man at a lower scale. A vote of thanks was accorded to Mr. Baxter for ibis caner. THE WORST KIND OF EDUCATION—TO be brought up by a policeman.—Judy. THE " SEA SERPENT."—The Portland (Maine) Advertiser gives the following description of an extraor dinary creature killed near Eastport, October Bth. It is part fish and part beast, over 30 feet in length, and girths 21 feet, having one enormous dorsal fin, two side belly fins, and a broad, shark-11e tail. About one-third of its length from its tail, in connection with small fins, it has two huge legs terminating in web feet. Its mouth makes a line of five or six feet in length, the whole extent of which is set with innumerable small teeth, resembling in size and shape the kernel of a species of sharp-pointed pop corn. It has a series of gills which overlap each other like thl flouncesonce the style of ladies' dresses. His im mense body, estimated to have weighed, when captured, about eleven tons, has no framework of bones, its most solid portions consisting of cartilage iuca tablo tougt, f k e p t r b e a se t rv o at f ion t . he letlepshkainnts andis drabrilncoeeraonsd.
