How TO PRESERVE THE CoMPLExIoN'-
To the question which has been proposed
TO us by some of our female readers
."What is the best fluid as an ORDINARY
wash for the face calculated While II re-
moves impurities from the skin, to preserve
unimpaired the freshness OF the complex
ion?" We reply without hesllation-S,'n-
ply soap and water--both articles Delne
as pure as as can be obtained. we nave
pointed out in a former number, most oil
those causes by which the sottness, trans
parency, and brilliant colour OF SKIN, are
impaired. These being carefully avoided
daily ablut;ons with soap and water Will
effectualy answer all the purposes tor
which long list of cosmetic lotions are IN
vain resorted to. Our female readers may
rest assured that the only beautltiers OF the
skin are personal leanliness-regular ex'
ercise, temperance-pure air. and cheer
ful temper. If any one Of these be negIec-
ted, the skin and complexion will invarla-
bly, suffer.
1t is only by preserving the skin free
from all impurities, and thus enabling 1t to
perform. with freedom its important iunc-
tions, that any external application Is al
all useful. To this end there is nothing So
we'll adapted as pure water, with he oc'
casional addition Of soap. They who, o,trom
rdicule of the idea, that washing frequently
Injuries the skin, substitute distilled liquors,
Cologne water, or any other fluid, simple
or compound, pursue practice most effec'
tually calculated to destroy its suppleness
transparency and smoothness, and to cover
it with unseemly blotches.
But it is not merely as a local wash we
would enforce npon all the use of pure wa
ter. When applied in the form of a batf
to the whole surface, at those seasons o
the year when its uses in this manner, car
with propriety be resorted TO, it is produc-
tive of the most benificial effects-promo.
ting the general well-being of the system
as well as that healthy condition of the
skin, independent Of which it can lay nc
pretenslons whatever to beauty. 1t is q
well known fact, that those nations by
whom bathing is the most frequently re-
sorted o,are those distinguished, most gen.
enerally, for elegance Of form and fresh
ness of complexion.

Charges Of Marriage. When people talk
of the expenses of marriage establish
ment, they seem to forget the fact that
there is no house-keeper equal to a wife.
She is mans best and most faithful
steward; and, unless she have expensive
tastes or habits of extravaganza will make
a pound go further than five could do with
bachelor. | lately saw a case in point
A gentleman who, from mistaken motives
of prudence, declines to change his condi-
ton, made lately, at my request, an abstract
ofhis household expenditure for year, and
it exceeded considerably the outlay, for the
same period. of another friend who is mar
ried, and who, in like manner furnished me
with the data required lmay add that
both parties move in the same rank Of lie
and live in manner becoming their condl-
ton. Men are proyerbially bad managers,
and even admitting that domesics are faith
ful still the motiue for economy is wanting
and, without a motive, nothing effectual can
be accomplished in this or in any other mat
ter.

The following language Of Gov. GiIner
of Georgia, in late Message TO the Leg
isature of that State will be read with in
terest by the citizens of Maine
81 regret to inform YOU that the Legls-
atnre of the State of Maine has declined
taking any measures TO give satisfaction to
this State, for the violation Of its sonstltu-
tional rights, by the refusal ofGov, Duntap
and Gov. Ken, to deliver up TO its authorl.
lies upon their demand the lugitives from
its Justice, Philbrook and kelIeran. You
will perceive from the proceedings OF the
Legislature Of Maine, at its last session,
that upon reference to it of adj the docu-
menls in relation to Phibrook and Kelleran
it contcnded itself by resolving that the
whole of TIM, subject was exclusively with
IN the province Of the Executive Depart
ment, and that it was Inexpedient for the
Legis lature to take any order in relation
thereto, Notwithstanding that the Legisla-
ture had passed law at its previous ses-
sion, defining the power of the Executive
Department in arresting and delivering up
the fugitves from Justice from other States
and evidently with the view of justfying
Gov. Dunlap in his previous refusal to de-
deliver up Philhroo< and keIleran to the
authorities of this State"
"Thia conduct of the Legislature of Maine
and the previous conduct Of Gov. Dunlap
and Gov. Kent prove conclusively that the
opposition to the institution of slavery is
so great among the people of that State
that their public authorities are prevented
from obeying the njnnc,ions Of the Consli-
tuition Of the United States, when required
to deliver up tugitives from justice charged
with the crime of violating the rights Of
property in slaves This State must there
fore protect by its own authority, the rights
of its citizens in slave property against this
disposition of Maine to violate them For
this purpose, yon mW be justifrd in dectar-
ing law, that oil citizens Of Maine, mho
may come within lie j,uiSdiciion IF this
>tote, on board Of any resscl as owners,
officers, or ma iners, shall be considered as
doing so NTH he intent 10 commit the crime
Of sedacing negro slnpes fran htir omntrs,
and be deoh with accordingly By the o6icers

DEATH WARRANT OF JESUS CHRIST
Of the many interesting relics and frag-
ments Of antiquity which have been brought
to light by the persevering researches OF
modern philosophy, none could have more
interest to the philanthropist and the believ-
er, than the one which we copy below, -
| Chance, says the Courier des EtatS UnsS,
has just put into our hand the most impos-
ing and interesting Judicial document to all
| Christians, that ever was recorded in hu-
man annals that is the identical Death war
rant of our Lord JESUS CHRIsT.' The
document was faithfully transcribed by the
editor, and is in hgc uer5a:
Sentence rendered by Pontius Plate, acting
Gouernor of Lo,Cer Galiiee, stating that
Jesus Of Nazareth shall suffer deuth on
The cross.
In the year seventeen of the empire IT,
berus Caesar and the 25th day of March,
the city of the holy Jerusalem, Anna and
Caiphas being priests, sacrifcators of the
people of God, Ponlius PLATE, Governor
of Lower Galilee, sitting on the presidential
chair of the Pietory, condemns Jesus Of
Nazareth to die on the cross between two
thieves-the great and notorious evidence
of the people saying
|. Jesus is seducer.
2. He is sedltious.
3. He is an enemy of the law.
4. He calls himself falsely the Son Of
God.
5. He calls himself falsely the King Of
Isreal
6. He entered into the temple, followed
by multitudes bearing palm branches in
their hands.
| Order the first centurion, Qullus Cor
nelius, to lead him to the place of execu-
ton
Forbid TO any person whomsoever, either
poor or rich, to oppose the death of Jesus.

The Philosopher. Sir Isaac Newton set
out in life a camorous nildel but on a
nice examination OF the principles Of Chris
tianiiy, he found reason to change his OPP
pinion. When the celebrated Dr. HALEY
was talking infidelity before him, Sir Isaac
addressed him IN these or the like words;
"Dr, HalIy, am always glad to hear you
when you speak about astronomy, or
other parts of the mathematics, because
that is subject you have studied and well
understand. but you should not talk OF
Christianity, for you have not studied it
have, and am certain You know nothing
ofthe matter" This was a Just reproot,
and one that would be very suitable to be
given to half the intidels of the present day
lor they often speak of what they never
studied and what in fact they are entirely
ignorant of. Dr. johnson, therefore, well
observed that no honest man could be a
Delst, for no man could be so, after fair
examination Of The proofs of Christianity.
On the name of Hume being mentioned to
him, "No Sir" said he, "Hume owned to
the Bishopricks Of Durham, that he had
never read the New Testament with atten-
tlon.

The Boston Loco Focos were so elated
on the evening oflhe election, at the reports
received from some twenty or thirty towns,
that it was quite impossible for them to
contain themselves. They were sure Of the
Governor, the House of Representatives
and the Senate, so they called out their
band of music and paraded the Streets
With characteristic magnanimty, they knew
of no better way to celebrate their victory
than to insult their opponents, so they
marched in front of the Atlas office and
struck up the grand Loco Foco anthem,
the national hymn of the party, the rogues
march; they played it well and they ought
to-they have practised it enough; it is the
tune they have marched to these thirteen
years, but they have not made old Massa-
chusett. step to the measure and they will
not. Proridence Journal

OPINION OFTHE SUPREME JUDf
CIAL COURT.
SAMUEL DAVIS rs. THE INHABITANTS OF
BATH
WESTON--C.J J.

The act of 1887 c 265, provides hat tho
portion of the public money of the United
States should be deposited with the several
cities, towns and plantations upon the terms
and conditions therein prescribed. 1t was
subject to be reclaimed, for which adequate
provision was made; but in the meantime
the use Of the money was to remain with
the towns. 1t was (not y special depos-
ite for safe keeping merely, but it was a
general deposite imposing on the towns
the obligation of returning an equal n
mount. 1t was however deemed proper
that the use of the money should be SUBJ
ject to public regulation. Accordingly tho
towns were empowered either to loan the
money on safe and ample security or to
appropriate it for the same purposes for
which they have right TO raise money by
taxation. In either case they remained
liable to the State. 1t still existed in the
eye of the law and was represented by the
security given by individuals, or by the
obligation of the town to replace the money
in the treasury by taxation, from which
they may have been relieved, for time,
by the appropriation of that which had
been furnished by the public.
Under that act of 1887 the action Of
the towns was limited to the use Of the
money, and could not affect the principal.
That had not become their property, or
subject to their final disposition. Then
came the act of 1888 C. 311, which reiev-
ed the several cities, towns and plantations
from all obligation to refund the money
which had been deposited with them re-
spectIvely. And this last act authorised
them to mako defective disposition of 1T
