WHAT CAUSES THE HAIR TO TURN GRAY.-
An English writer has recently asserted that an
undue proportion of lime in the system Is the
cause of premature gray hair, and advises to
avoid hard water, either for drinking pure or
when converted into tea or coffee or soup, be-
cause hard water is always impregnated with
lime. Hard water may be softened by boiling
it; let it become cold, then use it as beverage
1t is also stated that liquid that will color the
human hair black, and not stain the skim may he
made by taking one part of bay rum, three parts
of olive oil. and one part of good brandy. by
measure. The hair must be washed with the
mixture every morning, and in short time the
use of it will make the hair beautifully black,
without injuring it in the least. The articles
must be of the best quality, mixed in a bottle;
and always shaken before applied.

in the category of animals, and afford them the
protection accorded to beasts. This shocking
struggle lasted from u until fourteen minutes to 10.
It ended with the thrty-fifth round, when Heenan
got his powerful arm around the neck OF Sayers,
whose neck everybody expected would be broken.
The humanity Of the mob was aroused at last. The
ring WAS broken into with great violence, and the
fight put an end to in fearful confusion. Two more
rounds were actually fought in the crowd; but as
the umpire was thnrst out Of authority, and the
police made their way to the men, the light was
terminated, and is left undecided. We should not
be surprised to hear if fatal consequences yet
eRsue.
Divested with the slang terms which conceal this
moral enormity, the above is the naked picture Of
the scene at Farnborough--a scene more credit
able to nation OF savages than to the English OF
the nineteenth century. What is the value Of all
those lessons in physiology, of those triumphs OF
science which enabled us to understand and pre-
serve life if this wilful destruction of the human
structure is to be deemed we won't say honor
able, but tolerable? The whole function Of the
police and the best tone of civilization turn upon
preserving persons from injury and exalting
human life as a sacred thing. These exhibitions
cannot be continued unless we fatty contradict
the spirit public education which is the growing
credit of the age. On Monday night, and during
the whole night numerous individuals were travel
ing, at the greatest Inconvenience and cost, to be
present at this fight. 1t had all the popular at
traction of q public execution, and was attended,
to great extent, by the same class of persons.
We decline to believe that Calcraft is public
teacher, or that the prize ring is to be included
among the accredited agencies of public moral
ity. Here is satire on our civilization: neither
Mr.. Spurgeon nor DIR. Cumming can boast of a
following like that of Tom Sayers. The revival
ism is thrown into the shade by prize fight.
The event shows what the friends OF popular edu-
cation have to do.

The Day After the Battle.
e New York Herald publishes the following

letter:
SOUTHAMPTON, April 49, 1s60-1P. NJ.
The general topic of conversation in London
this morning is the great combat of yesterday.
The feeling in the mnds of the public is almost
unanimous in favor Of Heenan. The breaking in
of the ring was concerted plan OF the piokpock.
cts to rob the Americans. The plan succeeded
admirably; nearly every American losing his
watch or pocketbook. The American account Of
the fight by Mr.. Wilkes appeared this morning in
Frank Lesie's extra. Mr.. Wilkes has sent to
Macdonald to collect the proper testimony aud
will appear before the Pugistic Benevolent Asso-
citation this evening TO demand the belt for Keenan,
saw Heenan last night at IL o'clock; he was
quite comfortable, and the swelling IN his face had
much subsidized. He says ii he had not been kept
back by Macdonald he would have fought quicker
and would have whipped him before the twentieth
round and the opinion is shared by all the Amefi
cans here.
Mr.. Bowling has declared that all the bets must
be null and void and recommends us in England
to subscribe sufficient amount to purchase belt
for Heenaa and to let Sayers keep his. The Ameri.
cans say that he shall not receive anything but the
Champion Belt, which he is entitled to. i hear
nothing but the highest commentators in reference
to Heenans pluck and courage. Savers was well
known to possess endurance and courage; but
Heenan compelled every man to pay tribute to his
bravery. Heenan wants to fight Sayers imme-
diately, but he will have to abide the decision of
/ the referee. Morrisaey is dreadfully put ont he

Marlborough was at last fixed upon. Yesterday
morning, at the early hour of halfpast seven, the
fight between Sayers and Heenan commenced, and
a very sad sight was presented. Two men, en-
dowed by nature with the highest qualities Of ply

beauties of health and natural development, pre-
