The Human Hair.

This paragraph occurs in letter Of
the Paris correspondent Of the National
in,elIigencer
"The chemical examination Of the
human hair by Van Laer. OF Utrecht, is
inserted in the last number of DR.
QuecnsvilIe's Scientific aud Industrial
Review. The first purpose of Van i.aer
was TO ascertain the nature of the animal
matter in hair, but his attention was
drawn chiefly to the point-whence the
different colors of hair The black is
compounded OF nine different substances.
red differs from il only because of a red
oil instead of black IN white hair the
oiI is scarcely colored and exclusively
phosphate Of magnesia. Vauquclin,i in a
report on the Utrecht memoir, explains
the difference of the oils the sudden
growing gray from sorrow, surprise, or
fear, he ascribes To- the devclopemeni OF
an acid in the animal economy, which
docomposcs the coloring matter. He
finds an analogy and illustration in the
effects of anger, which changes in men
and animals, the nature of certain hu-
mors and renders them venomous. The
white locks Of age are owing to de6cien-
cy Of secretion Of matter. The sub
stance OF hair is mucous or animal muci-
age, neither gelaIine nor albumen."

SEASONABLE REFLECTIONS.
Newport, Jan. 4, l8A4.

We are indebted mostly to the NHw.
ark IN. j. Sentinel for the following
well-iimod reflections upon the season
which we have adopted with some few
alterations and amendments as our own
"The Clock upbrads ME with the waste of Time"
With this number of our paper we
commence anew our labors for another
year, and with cheering hopes for the
realization of better and brighter days
than have hitherto dawned upon u.s.
La Bruyerc is Of opinion that to the
greatest number OF men there are only
three events in life-to be born, TO live.
and to die. They are not sensible Of
their birth, they forget how to live, and
suffer when they die. Still in the cal.
endar of every contemplaiive mind, the
close of The old Year and the openipp
ofthe new, will be distinguished as the
season for reflection. Amid the hustle
OF business or the Establishments OF
pleasure, he will hear the voice ofTime.
and by natural association be led to
mediate on the past and to project for
the future. As he communes with his
own heart in Reflections sober hour .
Memory will sometimes appear to hin,
with gay, and sometimes with ghast.
ly train, and Regret and Remorse will
insert their thorns amid the farest roses
OF Promise : So that he must mourn
over the negligences and errors orthe
past, while he exuls in the pleasing
dreams Of the future. And we hardly
need the authority of Shakspeares al
tectionate governor Of NIessina to be.
leve, ,ha, no faces are truer' than those
that are washed with the tears of re-
pcntanco.
To review the feelings and acts which
have chrqncrcd the year whose obse.
quies we have but just solcmnzed, is
profitable duty. TO call up each
thought aud deed to sc,upulous ac.
count honestly to make inquisiton %,
the heart to inquire whether we hav,
duly filed the measure of duty, is u
necessary exercise TO him who woul,
derive from the loss Of one portion of
his existence, wisdom To live NOR,
wisely for the future. For such re-.
Prospect, no season can be more proper
than tho present. Al this time, th,
mind invountariy makes a puusc, look,
back on the course we have traced, and
notes the anniversaries of the season u.
