Ancient Customs.

So early as the time of Moses, the
Jews had innumerablo rules for dress.
ing and wearing the hair-rules which
they observed with religious exactness
1t has been thought that the most Of
these were devised by Moses, in order
TO still further distinguish his people
from their neighbors, and conserve the
national pride. Down almost, if not
quito, to the present day, it has re-
manned a law with the Jews that the
women should conceal their hair from
sight after marriage. The Hebrew
women were proud Of their long
tresses, which they adorned elaborate
ly with gems and precious metals.
The Greeks delighted in long hair
the early Egyptians, on the other
hand, seem to have abominated it.
All classes, among the latter, were
required to keep the head closely
shaved, and, for its protection from
the rays of the sun, were permitted
the use of ventilated wigs.
We find that artificial hair under
which category the aforementioned
wigs were doubtless included was
used as well by the Greeks, the Car
thagenians, and, more generally, by
the Romans, who bought large guam
titles of human hair, favoring partic-
ularly the blonde hair of Germany.
One of the myriad conceits, relating
TO the hair, that delighted the fancy
of Roman ladies', was to construct
with it sort of tower, rising up grand
~. from the crown of the head till it
reached fabulous altitude, and to
ornament the sides of this ridiculous
structure with formal rows of curls,
ranged around with mathematical pre-
cision, and not unfrequently to super
add number of pendant ourls dang
ling from various parts. The Greek
ladies, who possessed more sense and
taste than the Roman, refrained from
these ridiculous extremes, and COM
monty arranged their hair las may be
learned from the ancient sculptures,
etc, with dignifed simplicity.
The ancient Gauls were proud of
their long hair, and deemed that it
conferred peculiar honor on the
wearer. Julius Caesar, their conqueror,
could have inflicted no deeper humili-
alton on them than compelling them,
as a token of submission, to cut off
their hair; so that cropped hair be-
came badge of servitude, or, at least,
IL token of inferiority, and thus re-
manned for long period. The Danes
and Anglo Saxons, and most other
Northern nations, likewise valued long
and flowing hair, and made the cut
ting it off punishment for various
offences; just as the hair Of convicts,
at the present day, is cropped close,
as badge of their condition.-Dr. y.

Dim outlines in relief stand out, ...
And in the picture smiling sits
A waking wife who deity knits.
Anon she lifts her eyes to gaze
Into the evenings twilight haze,
And hopes in vain to see his face
Before the day to night gives place. 30
Each stitch seems wrought with rays of

Which lessen with the ankles slope;
But on she knits--the "beel"is is set.
The night comes down-no soldier yet
And now the instep narrowing down,
The "even" knitting is begun; '...t

And softly smiles-he means surprise!

In a Hurry.

The Cincinnati Gazette is in q tremen-
dous hurry to convince the people that the
South is unworthy Of place in the Union
1t says
"Tho rebels Of the South, in all they
have done and said since fighting ceased =,
have failed to give evidence Of fitness for
the resumption ofcvil rights. 1t has been
made manifest that the people Of the
Southern States who were lately in open
war against the government, are still un-
der the full influence of the spirit that an
imated them during the four years of
bloody war. TO restore 10 such peo-
pie, under those circumstances the State
Government, and admit their representa-.
tives to seats in Congress, would be to re-
establish the state of things that precipita-
ted the war for the destruction OF the Ma
tional Government Recent events have
made this perfectly clear"
1t is not quite apparent what the rebels
have done since fighting ceased 1t would
seem more digni6ed, and certainly much
less like anxiety to accomplish partisan
political end, if such writer's would wait
decent length Of time, at least until some
thing blame worthy has been done, before
condemning race of people. 1t is gen
orally supposed hercabouts that the people
of the South are exhibiting very com
mendable spirit, and behaving remarkably
well under all the circumstances. But it
is sadly probable that we have politicians
who design and desire to keep the country
in trouble, and to make dissension the
normal and interchangeable condition Of
things. In times of peace and calm, dem
igogues sink out of sight more easily than
in time of excitement. Hence their de-
sire to keep the war alive.

sGg- A Richmond paper estimates that
the war has cost the South five thousand
eight hundred millions Of dollars, 10 wit |:
Twenty five hundred millions by the loss
of slave property; nine hundred millions
by the raVages of war; nine hundred mil
lions by the loss of staple crops five hun
dred millions by property sunk in the Con-
federate debt, and one thousand millions
by what the South must hereafter pay as
her proportion of the principal and inter.
est Of the National debt. BY the census
Of 1860, the entire property of the fifteen
slave States was valued at $1,000, 0,00O,O00
the slayOs being valued at 50 400 ,0OO.-
For the last year before the war the cotton
crop was worth $3.50, ,000.0OO. The to-
baooo crop for 1860 was worth $4,000,
900, aud the rice and sugar crops for the
same year were each worth $4,000 900.
Wheat and corn were subsequently plant.
ed in place of these, but the product was
consumed by the rebel armies aud the
slaves. The debt of the Confedcracy at
tho time of the collapse was at least
four thousand million, which had obsorb-

This is the question to be submitted to-

and carnage through which you have SO

AT the great convention recently held

Now, we call upon YOU, returned SOL

the Republican party Of the United States
have determined to force upon you. We
appeal to the blood Of your veins we call
upon you in behalf of your children, to
come forth at the approaching election
aud by your votes vindicate the truth o.

NUMBERS, NOT INTELLlGENcE.-Th,
following is an extract from the late speech
Of II. Winter Davis, delivered at Re
publican meeting in Chicago:
owe need the votes of the colored peo.
pie; it is numbers, not intelligence, thai
counts at the ballot boz-it is the right in
tention,and not philosophic judgmeut,thar

So goes the party Of'grand moral ideas
--numbers, not intelligence is to be their
rule of action. In ignorant, passive, plas
tic numbers the Abolition leaders see pow
er. and plundor for themselves in the fu
turo; but in intelligence they see only
discontinue and defeat. Hence the watch.
