JUNE 27.--In the matter Of the Reclamation of
John Yam OrdenIn this case, the alleged fugitive
ed before the Commissioner. The latter submitted
that person held to service in one State could by
escaping into another be discharged from such SER
vice, but must be regularly delivered up, upon
claim being made by the person to whom such labor
is due. The process by which the employer is to-
sue is to be found in the act of ls5O-the Fugitive
Slave law. Mr.. Morton. on the opposite side, con-
tended that the person now appearing was bound
and that by the laws Of the State Of New York sa-
very was extinct. The case Of Brigg Vs. the State
of Pennsylvania, and the other decisions under the
opposed to the surrender Of slave under the Furi-
tive Slave law. This law refers to slaves. The Ian
guage also Includes but describes apprentices, and
the fugitive is to be delivered to the person to whom
the service and work il due. The counsel also refer
red to the Statutes Of the State of New Jersey, iH
support of his view Of the law regarding the removal
of negro slaves. The case stands adjourned.

be the assumption, when il goes to mpercede the
action Of the Regents altogether. The COM
mon law courts it Il well known, in this dis
tct have more legitimate business already than thew
can properly dispose Of without usurping OF having
forced upon them the appropriate functions Of other
and far moro suitable tribunals. It was said, lam
aware, by those Of old time that it IL the part Of
good judge to amplify his jurisdiction. But the
maxim, whatever may have been the reasons out Of
which 1t arose, like many other traditions Of the ell
ders has long since ceased to be orthodox Cropping
on Mandamus, PIP. 10, 272, &c.) The demurrer or
the part of the petitioner to the Trustees answer to
the alternative mandamus. must therefore be OYER
ruled. A mandamus Is proper where party has a
legal right, and there is NO other appropriate legal
remedy. (Ex parte Nelson, l, Cow. ll7) To issue
without such necessity il undue exercise Of ju
dicial discretion Whether the right claimed BY the
petitioner to compel Q promiscuous educational as.
ISOLATION, contrary to the expressed wishes or ever
prejudices Of his fellowstudents, be or be not le
gal right shall not now inquire. It is sufficient
that the Legislature have expressly provided another
judicatory for the determination Of that question
An appeal to that judicatory-the Board Of Regents
lis not only an appropriate, but, as it
seems to me, at least in the first instance, Is the
only appropriate legal remedy. Should they, on q
proper application, refuse to act or, acting, refuse
to do JUSTICE it will then be time enough il ever al
lowable, to invoke the power Of the common lave
courts. Demurrer overuled.
The New York herald. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1840-1920, 1853-06-28

But during the remainder Of the weak thsy have
plenty Of time to recover nom the effects Of this.
Thsre is another thing which they should not me-
glect-the honing Of their razorsfcr it is most dis
agreeable to feel the dull steel scrapng along your
cheek, and hear the clicking noise it makes as it
slowly mows its way over the stubbe growth of your
chin. Acapital story is told Of . Yankee who was
once subjected to the infection Of dull razor, and
who when asked the usual question, docs the razor
pull easy?' replied that 1t depended upon whether
he was being skinned or shaved. At one time it
was fashionable to have ones face spotted with
court plaster, but that day has passed, and men
have no fancy now for being cut that they may en-
joy the privilege Of having their faces disfgured
Briefly, therefore, we would say to BARRIERS Don't
bore your customers beyond endurance with re-
concentrations Of your inimitable hair oil or re-
storatve; let them find out its valuable properties
for themselves. They are also supposed to know
best whether their hair wants cutting shampoong
Keep your razors sharp; don't stick your brush into
mans nose or ears those not the proper places
for it, Never mind chipping his face, it never looks
well after it; and you may be certain when he looks
at in the glass he won't bless you whatever else he
may do.'

LADIES' HAIR DREsSERs.

LADIES' HAIR DRESSERS.
The dressing Of ladies' hair gives constant employ.
ment to twenty women and eight men. The women.
are paid at the rate Of five dollars month, for dress
ing one lady's hair every morning, or once q day
and to earn even this, they required to visit the
lady at her residence. Each female hair.dresser
makes, on an average, five dollars week. To the
men who are engaged in the business it is very lucra
tiveso lucrative that one hairdresser informed us
that he would not give his services the whole year
round for ten dollars day During the ball season
which lasts from about the LIST of April, his receipts
for addressing alone, were from fifteen to thirty
dollars day; and on one occasion, he made fifty
dollars for dressing the hair of three persons This was
wedding party, consisting Of the bride, bridesmaid
and bridegroom. The wedding took place
at New Haven, but his travelling expenses
were not included in his bill, and were paid for
separately. For dressing for ball or party first
rate hair dresser charges five dollars head, and &C.
cond rate .ones two and three dollars Mr.. Dibblee
who has been long time engaged in the business
of hair dressing and wig making, informs Us
that he has known hair dressers having been en-
gagged two months before ball or party. The oper-
alton of dressing head takes from one to two hours
and if it be brides hair it sometimes takes longer
The arrangement of the flowers as well as the dress
ing of the hair, requires great deal of artistic skill
and taste; the style must be adapted to the express
sion and complexion of the countenance, well as
to the occasion. Four years is generally the term
apprenticeship for hair dressing and wig making
combined Formerly, the barber understood both
these branches, but they have latterly been separ
ated and at present there very few BARRIERS who
in addition to their own business, understand the
making Of wigs A hair dresser has no affinity with
barber, does not like to have himself cassed in the
same category, and considers his own peculiar occu
patton superior in every respect to the shaving
business.
