Four GOOD HAEIrs.-There were four good
habits whi;h wise man earnestly recon-
mended in his eounsels, and by his own exam.
pie, and which he considers essentially neces-
sary for the happy management Of temporal
concerns-these are punctuality, accuracy,
steadiness, and dispatch. Without the first,
time is wasted, those who rely on Us are irri.
tated and disappointed, and nothing is done in
Its proper time and place. Without the second,
mistakes the most hurtful TO our own credit
and interest and that Of others, may be COM
mitted Without the third, nothing can be
well done; and without the fourth, opportuni-
ties of advantage are lost which it is impossi-
Bile to recall.

hEDJiAIR.-In ancient times. the nations
VINO were the most polished, the most civilized.
and the most skilful in the fine arts, were pas.
sionately fond Of red hair. The Gauis. the
ancestors Of the modern French. had the ssms
preference. though the color is now in disre-
pute by their descendants, who like black
hair. A taste for red hair. however. still ex-
lists in extensive regions. The Turks. for ex.
ample, are fond Of women who have red hair.
while the modern Persisns have a stong aver.
SION to ii. The inhabitants Of Tripoii who
probably learned il from the Turks, give their
hair red tinge by the aid Of vermillion The
women Of Seinde and Deccan are fond of dye
ing their hair red and yellow, as the Romans
did, in imitation of German hair There Is
among Europeans generally strong dislike
T. red hair, but in Spain red hair is admired
almost to alteration, and there is a story told
Of one of our naval commanders, who l1xuri-
ated in fiery locks being idolized and caressed
In consequence by the Spanish women. and
looked upon as perfect Adonis
