OAK NECESSARY TO BUILD ONE SHrp.-By the
report Of the Commissioned of Land Revenue, it
appears that a seyenty-four gun ship contains
about 2 1000 tons, which, at the rate ola load and
a half a ton, would give 5000 loads of timber,
and would require 1000 trees of seventy five
years growth. 1t has also been calculated that,
as not more than 40 oaks, containing a load and
a hall of timber in each, can stand upon one acre,
fifty are required to produce the oaks necessary
for every seventy-four gun ship.

"RoUcE EFT Nom."-The English people are
getting f~acetious under the imprisonment Of eco
lored men in America" A correspondent of the
Times says, that all the Americans condeseend
TO say about the matter is, I" If you don't like the
custom, don't bring your nasty sinking niggers
to Charleston" He, therefore, suggests that the
British should, in retaliation, commit TO Bride
we'll every red haired American the moment he
enters the Merscy. If Mr.. Lawrence remon-
s%trates, as he probably will DO, all they have to
answer is, "If you don't like the custom, don't

HNHE care ofthe Hair in infants and children
Il is, by mothers and nurses, too little regard
ed. No mistake can be more injurious than the
supposition that neglect in this particular, can
continue with impunIty. The seeds of strength
or weakness are laid in childhood; and the ma
jOrity of the fine flowing ringlets or bald heads OF
after years, are traceable to this early period.
Castor Oil POurmadc,
celebrated for its genial and invigorating quail.
ties, in promoting and restoring the growth of
the hair, expelling dandruff and other Impurities
of the skin, ESQ very pernicious to the healthy
growth of the hair,) is peculiarly fitted for appli.
cation during the tender years Of childhood and
no one, where personal advantages are held in
estimation, should be without it.
For EmbeIIisIlIng the Hair.
the Pourmade is pre.eminent. A smooth, rich,
and beautiful appearance, with gentle waver or
glossy ringlets, full, lnxuriant and graceful, being
the admirable results of its use.
For Cleansing the Hair,
the Pourmade is most valuable, as it effects this
essential object without drying up the natural
moisture and thus preventing decorative arrange
ments-a fault so much complained of by those
who use ordinary detergent mixtures, and imme-
diately removes the scurf. As a restorative OF
the hair, this pourmade is unrivalled. Sold in
pots at IS and sc cents each, by

They tell, says the Panama Echo, some tough
stories about the natives crossing the lsthmus.-
The latest is to this effect: A number of kegs
of powder were placed upon the backs OF the man
mules, with the direction that they should be kept
dry; but, unfortunately, n shower of rain over
took them before they got half way across-the
powder, Of course, was wet by the watery fluid.

IA may be made by using Hammond's Bread
Powder, which is most strongly recommended to
Families; for not only is a considerable saving
in time and money effected, in the making of this
useful article of Food, but it is rendered by the
use of this valuable Powder, perfectly easy ofdi-

may partake of it without suffering that incon.
%venience so oftentimes complained OF. To per-
sons suffering from indigestion, dyspepsia. dc,
