INTERESTING Discovery FOR COLoRING THE
HAIR.-The Paris corresp ondent of the Courier
des Etats Unis describes discovery, which has
just been made, relating to the subject of colorng
gray hair:
The new system succeeds in bringing about the
internal coloring Of the hair The discovery is
borrowed from the Chinese, who have succeeded in
reaching and transforming by means of medicine
and peculiar diet, the liquid which colors the
pous system, and giving to white and red hair a
black tint, which maintains itself during the con-
tinued growth. 1t is by this method that the Chi
nese have been able TO claim the title from the
highest antiquity of the black haired nation.
M. DELAY has published a treatise upon it--and
as the bones of living animals have been colored
red by making them eat madden, and the internal
wood of trees has been changed to different hues
by watering the roots with liquid metallic salts, he
wonders that this discovery has not before been
made by those who thus experimental. The hair
and the beard belong to vegetable life, and are dis
posed to the same phenomena. In fact, saws M.
DELAY, after a sufficient quantity of ferruginous
salts has been introduced into the body, the circu.
lation takes them up, the blood loaded with these
substances, deposites them in the folcules of the
hair, which in turn pours them into the oil of the
hair, and this oil, saturated with iron, becomes
black, and the whole hair with it.

JOSEPH HUME's LIBRARY.--The following de-
scription of the library Of Joseph Hume the great
English parliamentary reformer, was written by
the London correspondent of the Liverpool Albion
" The Parliamentary library in Bryanstone Square
is perfect phenomenon in extent, methodical ar
rangement, and accessibility as to what is inside,
as well as to the outside. Every blue book, every
stray leaf of every vote paper and every scrap of
a return, classified, indexed and annotated in the
veterans own hand for forty years back so that
there is not single circumstance which has occu-
pied the legislature in any shape during the whole
of that period upon the record of which Hume can
not place his finger on the instant. Long distant
be the day, but when it comes, the sale of Joe's
library mus. challenge national attention, and Sc
cure the nation for purchaser of materials that
will feed whole wildernesses of future Macaulays

SINGULAR CASE OF KIDNAPPING-The New
York Tribune of the 9Th, tells strange story about
kidnapping. The attention of officer Torbush of
the Fifth Ward, was yesterday morning attracted
to boy about 10 years of age, who appeared to be
in some way connected with troop of wandering
Arabs, eight in number at a miserable GROCERY in
Anthony street, the resort of negroes and others of
the most degraded character, where they were en-
deavoring to make him perform various feats of
tumbllng etc. On interrogating theb oy, he stated
that his name was Charles Hanford, and that about
Is months ago he was hired out by his parents to
them for the sum of II shilings per month"; to per.
form with them in the streets Of London, during
which time they undertook to teach him feats Of
tumbling, etc., which injured his back yerv much.
and whenever he mumured or cried, they floeped
him severely, and would not permit him to return
to his parents. About three months ago thew took
him on board the ship Creole and brought him TO
this country, without the consent or knowledge of
his parents, and since their arrival here they have
been obtaining their support in the manner above
stated, and were now about leaving the city,
There were originally five of them but on arriving
mere they found three other wandering Arabs, of a
similar character, living in Anthony street, and
having with them an English woman and also an
American. The facts being communicated bv
Capt Carpenter to the British Consul the latter inn.
mediatey took the matter in hand, and will make
at once to restore the boy to his ma
rents in London. He has been cruelty treated by
the Arabs while in this city, having been almost
starved frequently beaten, and compelled to sleep
with negro.

OREsTEs "A. BROwNsON AS CRITIC.-FOr sew
eral years Mr.. Brownson has been absorbed in
the studies of scholastic theology, that he has had
little or no time to devote to lighter branches Of lit
erature. In the tenth number of his Quarterly
Review, however, he gives us his opinion of Low
ellis Vision of Sir Launfal. We see in this review
of the editor, how thoroughly his mind is possessed
by religious ideas. A few years ago Brownson
was the most scoffing skeptic in the land /; from
universal skepticsm he passed to the transcenden-
tai pantheism of modern Germany at last he has
sought refuge in the bosom of the Catholic Church.
1t will be curious if his perturbed spirit find final
rest there. But to his notice of Lowell:
The Divine idea, supernatural truth, was OBJ
secured by the Reformers, and has been pretty
much lost sight of by their descendants; and there
has appeared no philosopher, and there has been no
philosophy, since the middle of the seventeenth
century. The first American poet is
probably not yet born.
Mr. Lowell has lively fancy, quick eye for
material beauty, or, as we say the beauties of ma
ture, and considerable facility of expression. He
can see and express the beauty of daily, of the
bee collecting honey, of cows feeding in the pas
ture, of the cock clapping his wings and growing,
and even something of the life of spring morning,
the sutriness of a summer noon, and of the golden
hues of an autumnal sunset /; but beyond or above
he does not appear able to 60 When he aspires,
he falls; and when he seeks to express the beauty
of moral truth, he only proves that he has never
clearly and distinctly beheld it. His glory is that
he believes in moral truth-that he believes that
there is the Divine and eternal idea back of the
ever-changng appearances which fit past his Wis.,
ion but his misfortune is, that he has never beheld
it-that he has, at best, caught only partial
glimpse of the objects around him, when sudden
flash of lightning for an instant burrows the dark
ness which envelops them. With solid training

having recently seduced a German girl by the name
of Nina Watchet, on a promise of marriage. He
postponed the marriage from time to time, alleging
that his circumstances would not warrant hisin-
creasing his expenses just them and told her that
he was in arrears with his rent and induced her to
pawn her best clothing and jewelry to raise money
to give him to pay his rent. In default of $1,000
