men appear at its windows and join in the
throng upon the streets. The apprehensions Of
the people are slowly subsiding beneath tie in
auence ofa benignant and orderly military rule.
The ruins on Main street, trampled upon by
hundreds of pedestrians, have less deathly air.
It may take some time to convince the more
aristocratc classes tEat gang Of fends and
cut-throats are not waiting outside of their
houses But certainly no woman has yet been
insulted, no rebel has had his throat slit. There
are no fights or disturbances of any sort. The
busy but quiet work of the Provost Marshars
department goes on at the Capital.
Cen Weitzel deports himself at dinner with
in jeff Davis late residence according to his
breeding; Gen. shepley issues seemly and en-
co1FF.gi e proqlamations; guards and patrols la
zlys tssJan6bezss 7he thoronghfares; the SpOtts7
wood hotel hourishes with an overflow ofguests;
the Richmond Theater is open at night, and SUIT
ler's shops, waxing numerous, are crowded with
purchasers So far as can be seen nothing has
been done to outrage, to offend, or inconveni-
once the ordinary pursuits and pleasures Ofreas-
enable inhabitants.
The revolution in Richmond, to be sure, is not
yet over. The reaction has only just begun
Results, good and bad, are just indicated by
what is taking place. The capital Of the false
confederation is beseged oy piteous multitude
Of its victims. They gather-old and young,
men, women and girls, and little children-with
pleading, weary faces, with baskets and with
empty hands, upon the steps and in the halls,
seeking protection and food Some go to take
the oath ofallegiance; some to request transpor-
Rs' u to the North; some clingfng still to hope
forlorn, and strange to claim passage to the
burial place of hope beyond our lines.

AND STILL THEY Go.-Since our last, the
number who have left this vicinity for the Occur
d'Alene Mountains is estimated at fully eighty
five or ninety persons. Johnny Crapeau seems
to have the "inside track" in knowledge of To-
cality and prospects, as he was the first to dis
close information to the world of the existence
of these gold-felds, and has shown disposi-
tion to keep such knowledge confined to his
counrymen. We are told that nearly all the
Frenchmen who were, two weeks ago. on the
Samon-men Of general business as well as
miners-have left there, and are now en- route
for the Occur d'Alene, the great center of at
traction.-Rodiator.

Those who are fond of displaying their knowl-
edge on subjects of which others profess to be
ignorant, should be cautious; for those who
have dignity and candor enough to confess their
own ignorance, we may be assured, will have
discrimination enough to detect the ignorance
Of others.

The RIGHT KND.-A young man Of our ac-
quaintance, says the Sonoma Co. Democrat
few DAYS since describing the girl he was about
to take unto himself, "for better or for worse"
said she was "a good sensible girl knew how
to work, was not stuck up, and had never been
used to being buggy rode, and iay-hawked
about" "

A German agriculturist says that before he
plants his potatses he washes them in chlorine
water and dries them in the sun. He says that
he has saved them from disease during several

PREsERvATIvEs OF FEMALE BEAUTY.-The fair
Queen of Scots bathed in wine, and the Earl of
Shrewsbury while acting as her custodian, COM
planned bitterly of the expense she entailed up
on him by this Injurious custom. 1t was white
wine the ladies thus employed for the purposes
of the toilette, and it was mainly used by those
of "certain age, who desired to remove their
wrinkles; young eauty contented itself with a
bath of milk. A vine bath was assuredly much
TO be preferred to the flesh of capons filled with
vipers, by which the beautiful Veneta Digby,
wife of the excentrc Sir Kenelm, endeayored to
improve her complexion. Sir Kenelm is also
supposed to have made his lady feed upon the
great SNAIL washing down the unsavory repast
with draught of viper wine, for the preserva-
ton Of her beauty No wonder that's she died in
her thirty-third year, and that only a smallquan-
tity of brains" was found in her head
, 1865-07-07

THE BODY GUARD.-The days of republican
simplicity at Washington are over now forever.
1t is felt that there it would be foolish and GRIM
inal to neglect the precautions that are necessa-
ry to preserve the life of the President of the
United States. Mr. Lincoln had body guard,
but that was felt to be mere form, and the
body guard was notorously inefficient. The
soldier at the door of the stage box was a mem
Der of this body guard, and if be had realized
his duty the assassin would never have entered
the box But he did not. He considered him
self and his comrades as merely useless append
ages. He had no conception of the fact that he
was stationed there to protect the life of the
President All this will be different hereafter.
The body guard Of the president will be com
posed of men of intelligence and courage, and
it will consist of both cavalry and infantry
cavalry to attend the president when he rides;
infantry to attend the president when at home
in the theatre, &c. The arms of the body guard
will be short sword, something like sabre
bayonet, and two reyolfers These details, and
some others have already been agreed upon.
