Works of Nature.-Ia state of health the
Intestinal canal may be compared to a river
whose waters flow over the adjoining land, THO
the channels nature art has made, and i'm
prove their qualities; so long as it runs on
smoothly the channels are kept pure and healthy;
if the course of the river is stopped, then the
water in the canals is no longer pure, but soon
becomes stagnant There is but one law of cir
culation in nature. When there is superabun-
dance of Immortal fluid in the intestinal tubes,
and costiveness takes place, it flows black into
the blood vessels, and infiltrates itself into the
circulation. To establish the free course of the
river, must remove the distractions which
stop its free course, and those of its tributary
streams. With the body, follow the same natu-
raj principle-remove the distractions from the
bowels with BRANDRETH's PILLS, which never
injure, but are always effectual for the perfect
cleansing of the system from foulness or disease.
Remember never suffer drop of blood to be ia
ken from you. Evacuate tn umors as often
and as long as they are der nged, or as long as
you are sick.

ROMAN WOMEN OF FASHION.

IF we closely compare some particular fash
ion of ancient days with the fashion of our
own time, we shall be surprised to notice the
slightness of the difference in taste. Take,
or instance, the mode of arranging the hair,
But, before all, take the HAIR itself Yes,
take it. touch it, handle it, look at it long,
till you make sure of its color. 1t is the very
color we admire so much to-day-red hair :;
blonde hair and blonde woman were then as
much admired, and much sought after, as
the choicest blonde blossoms of our drawing
rooms of to-day. So great was the prefer
ence given to blonde and yelloy and red hair,
that all sorts of toilet articles were resorted
to, to obtain from drugs and ointments the
one color which painters and poets still de-
light to picture in their softest dreams of fair
women.
The mode of dressing the hair varied as it
varies with u.s. fashion being more of an ar
bitress than taste in that important detail of
wnmen's costume. Rats" and cushions
were skilfully adjusted by the slave coiffeuse
to the head of her mistress, and we find some
traces of the waterfall Curls seem to have
been the favorite style of dressing the hair
for time-curls thrown back of the head
and flowing on the neck, such as we call
Grecian curls Wearing the hair in large
Knot on the summit of the head, or in short
nnglets around the forehead, was also fav
orlte mode with the exquisites ofthose days
OF exquisite elegance. But what adored
most the head of the Pompeian belle were
the jeweed combs and the jewelled pins
which they used to fasten their hair. Some
OF those are marvellously not in color only,
but in poetical design. One of those pins
found in Herculaneum. and about seven or
eight inches long, is snrmounted by Venus
chlselled in gold she is twisting her hair,
and looks at herself in mirror held by Gu
pld- Another is ornamented with small
ngure of Psyche kissing Love.
Young girls in Pompeii wore nets, and ex
erclsed the charming capriciousness of their
nckle taste in choice of color, texture, |
and style. Some of them were made of gold |
Unread studded with pearls and other prec
1ous stones.
Extreme care was bestowed upon the nails |
OF feet and hands. There was one special |
slave invested with the responsibility of
keeping the nails of her mistress properly |
pared, cleaned, and tinted. Women wore
gloves, yet they delicately cherished their
hands and fingers. They kept them beauti
1Gl, not by idleness alone, but by variety
OF cosmetics intended to render the skin soft,
smooth, and fiower-like And, as the Gus
toms of those days made the fingers of wo-
men speak eloquently in adroit gesticulation,-
the beauty of the hand could not be over +
looked. Horace makes fun of some origina,
Wag independent enough tocHt his own Nails
and dispense with the services of barber or
slave.-G GALAXY.

AMERICAN OPIUM CULTIvATIoN.-It has
long been known that the species of poppy
from which opium is obtained is indigenous
in Northern Mexico, where it grows in great
profusion in the extensive plateaux of that
country. According to the Report of Major
Dufield, United States Marshal in Arizona,
this plant is also found growing in its natu-
raj wild state in the valley of the Santa
Cruz River.
Mr.. Emanuel Weiss, of Pennsylvania, has
recently visited the gions where the poppy is
found, for the purpose of examining the
country with reference to its availability for
opium culture. In a circulag which he has
just issued he exhibits the China trade with
England and the United States, from which
1T appears that the British Government ex-
change opium with the Chinese for tea, and
transfers large quantity of the latter article
to the United States, for which we pay in
gold. If it be true, as set forth in this circu-
lar, that two families with but two axle
field hands, can put ten acres of popies un-
der cultivativation, which will yield about
1000 pounds of merchantable opium, con-
tanning nearly ten per cent of morphine" it
will prove one of the most profitable crops in
and is harvested within one hundred days
from the date ofplanting. The greater part
of the year could, therefore, be employed in
the production of other crops, in stock-grow-
ing, or in mining operations, for either of
which the Territory of Arizona affords am
pie facilities.
The production of opium as an article of
export would add materially to our COM
merce, and would remove the necessity for
a large expectation of the precious metals

mad to send delegates to Philadelphia. and
to commit them to tests that are utterly fatal

ton with the test-oath would be worse than
territorial bondage forever. The people of
the South can never be represented in Con-

oath remains unrepealed, and we never in
tend to endorse any movement or support
any man for any position in which the test
oath is not emphatically ignored. The test
oath is just as fatal to US as Radical Con-

cede us representation with the odious test
as precedent; for the inevitable consequence
would be that such men as Bolts, Underwood
