HArR.-A writer in late number of the
London Quarterly Review furnishes the fol-
lowing information on this subject:
London imports about five tuns of human
hair annually. Black hair comes mainly from
Brittany and the South of France, wher it
is collected principally by one hair merchant
who travels from fair to fair, and buys up
ard shears the crops of the neighborhood
damscls. A traveller in Brittany describes
the peasant girls as attending at the fairs
with their beautiful tresses, perfectly willing
to sell cut. He saw several girls sheared,
one after another, like sheep, and as many
more standing rcrdy for the shears with their
caps in their hands, and their long hair comb.
cd out and hanging to their waists. by the
side Of the dealer was placed large basket,
into which the successive crops of hair were
thrown, each tied up in wisp by ITSELF
For some heads ofhair twenty sous in money
is given, or gaudy handkerchief. This hair
is the finest and most silken that can be pro-
duced. Light hair comes from Germany,
where it is collected by company of Dutch
farmers, who 60 over TO England for orders

BAD APPoISTMENTs.-Wes suppose before
long Locofocos will swear the Wings alone
are responsible for the appointments of the
"new order of things" as their party is fast
becoming unanimous in repudiating the
Pierce appointments. The New York True
Democrat thus rails at them:
"No man has right to make the Demo-
cratic party responsible for such appoint
ments. If the appointing power has no re-
gard for itself, it must have for the great par
ty, of which, in its appointments, it stands as
the representative. And there is but one
means Of compelling good appointments, viz:
by repudiating disreputable ones; and this
we desire to do, no matter who may be de-
ceived by peridious advisers into such false
position.
The Democratic party of New York city,
as we have often said, comprises within its
rank a mass Of the ablest and best men Of the
Union. 1t can count by thousands its citi-
zens of sterling credit, nice sense of honor,
incorruptble integrity, and active business
Instincts; why should they all be overlooked
when public Offices are in question, and the
preference given to the lepers Of the party
whom all shun who own self-respect, and
whose very haunts it must cost decency some
sacrifice to tread without tear of Infection

The OTTER IN ISprA.-We passed, to my
surprise, a row OF no less than nine or ten
large and very beautiful offers, tethered with
straw collars and long strings to bamboo stakes
on the bank. Some were swimming about at
the full extent of their strings, or laying half
in and half out of the water; others were roll
ing themselvs about in the sun on the sand
banks, uttering a shrill whistling noise, as if
in play. Twas told that most Of the fisher
men in this neighborhood kept one or more of
these animals, who were almost as tame as
dogs, and off great use in fishing, sometimes,
driving the shoals into the nets, sometimes
bringing out the larger fish with their teeth.

earth has been parched, vegetation shriveled.
rivers almost dried up. Showers have occa-
sionally here and there, refreshed neighbor-
hoods for an hour, and washed the dust from
shrubs and trees. But no really beneficial
rain have we had for long interval in this
vicinity till night before last. At an early
hour heavy rain set in, and continued with
out intermission till late yesterday morning.
1t was penetrating rain, and will find the
roots Of growing things. 1t must, too, have

able portion of the corn. In others, it Will

AN EXTRAORDINARY DIsCovERY.-The at
tention of men of science in Paris has been
drawn to an extraordinary discovery made in
neighboring department. A grave-digger
in throwing up some earth, came upon a body
in state ofperfect preservation. On exam
ination it proved to bethat of an individual
buried thrty-seven years ago. He had died
from the effects of the bite of mad dog. The
shroud and the coffin had fallen to dust, but
the body remained intact. This is the third
exhumation made within twenty years, of bod
les Of the victims ofhydrophoba, under SINH

that they are beyond the reach OF decompo-
sition. The registry of deaths was consulted,
and no mention of the embalment of the BODY
was found.

FREIGHTs.-Owing to the low stage of the
river, frieghts are very high, and indeed it is
difficult to ship at any price. We would adj
wise our country friends not to send in any
produce for shipment till the river gets in
good order. The freights to New Orleans
now are SOC por leo lbs; Eggs, 81 so per
barrel. From Cincinussito Evansville from
SOC to 75c, is charged per 100 lbs. From
Louisville to Evansville, about Soc, and we
know of one case where 75c were charged.
