The newest fashion for The hair is to have
it cut close to the scalp. The beaux at the
fashionable resorts look as if they had all
just left States prisons and houses of cor
rection. The style is called ola Trappe. -
Its only disadvantage is that it makes the
ears of the votaries of the fashion about
the same length as those of other jaekasses.

ALLEN CREEK, Aug. 95, 1859.

ALLEN CREEh, aug 10, 1000
EDITOR EMPoR1A NEws:-Sir: Although
this is bad day for inspiration--the low
hanging clouds, from which light showers
fall lazily at times, acting as damper to
my enthusiasm-yet I take up my pen with
hand made nervous by recent exercises
with an AK, to talk somewhat with the rea-
ders of THE News. The New Constitution,
of which copy is before US, seems to be
the unfortunate subject of the criticisms of
the editor of the Kansas Press, s. N. Wood,
Esq. He says "there is in it too much leg
islation--an attempt to bind up the legisla-
ture. The Convention evidently imagined
that all wisdom would die with them, and
were afraid to trust the Legislature. If
the Convention imagined such a thing they
are by this time, no doubt, convinced that
they were mistaken, and from what he says
about what the constitution should have
been, very naturally suppose that he con-
siders himself "wiser than them ALL But
7 trust that that honorable body will take
no offense at the critic, remembering that
he was probably writhing under the disa-
agreeable remembrance that he was the de-
feated candidate for the honor of a seat in
the Constitutional Convention, and no doubt
thinking that had the Convention the assis-
lance of his wisdom it would have been ad-
opted without dissenting voice. AS they
had not he thinks it doubtful, and therefore
considers himself called upon to use his
powerful wisdom and eloquenee to pursuade
them to accept it, deficient as it is of wis
dom-gently limiting that tho it is not as
perfect as it would have been had it emma
ted from his hands, yet it is passable
Observation-Disclosures than none at all-and
very sensibly adds that it should receive
the careful consideration OF the public
