Cor the different styles of wearing the
hair, which are struggling for conspic-
uity and adoption in the regions and
realms of crinoline. One great rule
should govern, and that is for each
one to consider the style best suited to-
her own appearance and best adapted,
to display her own charms, A good
suit of hair, iceu conabed, is an orna-
ment which art and the whole tonsorial
science cannot rival, while a profusion

as lustiiable as a borrowed noseT-and
while the Partisan can deck herself
in borrowed plumages and go forth o..

cry and furbelows, our own native
blonds and brunettes are handsomest
in strict adherence to simplicity, and
more lovely when less adorned by the
frauds invented by the Madam Man

times even all around the head; occa-.
sionally a scafolding Of these small
curls, powdered with gold,, are to be,
seen. Then branches ON long ringlets
are prepared with comb in the same
manner, and fastened at the back
the head; the false plaits and twists
are extremely thick. and these are pin.s

few ladies care to have their hair cut
SO as to be able to wear the short fr.z-i
zed curls so much in vogue; conse-r
quently, with few exceptions, every
one submits to wear those already pre-
pared aud mounted on either combs or

] SAD AFFAIR. The intelligence of the
death of Col. H. w. Walter, in a recontre
with Col. McGgirk, reached the city to-
day from Holly Springs, at which place
the sad event transpired: The quarrel
which resulted fatally to Col Walter,
originated, itais said, about matters
pertaining to the then pending munich
pal election. Col. Walter servered as
a member of Gen. Braxtoni Bragg's
staff during the late war and was one
of the brightest lights of the legal pro-
fessien In his section of the country.
BY all who knew him. Col Walter was
regarded as an upright, moral, chris
tian gentleman. The affair has crea-
ted the most universal regret, here as
both parties we're well known No
particulars have been received. sgse

says the Clarion, that by the proyis-
ions Of an act Of the Legislature, pas
sed at the last session owners of land
forfeited to the State for non-payment
of taxes, during the last several years,
can redeem the same by paying the
amonnt due for State and county tax
es to the Auditor in this city. A new
assessment of lands Will be commenced
in May, and to insure a proper assess
ment, lands, that have, been forfeited
should be redeemed before that time.
In all cases the money should be sent
to the Auditor, as they cannot be re-
deemed, as heretofore. in the different
counties. Where it is convenient to
come to Jackson, letters addressed to
the Auditor on this subject viii meet
with prompt attention. (. = .1.A '''s.'''

,SoUTHERN INFLUENCE. The New York
correspondent of the Cosmopolitan, ,
of London, makes prediction and
sticks to it: 80 S s''ssi s Pr,
New YoRK, Dec. 2.-The editor of
the New York Times effects to laugh at
my prediction in your. columns chat, at
no distant day, Lee, Breckenridge, and
other heroes of the late Confederacy..
would become the leading statesmen
of the United States. But I only pred
icate my prognostics from facts that
pass before my eyes. A. n, Stephens,
late Vice President of the Confedera-
cy, in passing through this city, is vis-
tied and welcomed by our most infu-
entail citizens. Gen. 10. Johnston is
no sooner registered at the New York
Hotel than he is visited by all the lead
ing ..nobs"" of the Fifth Avenue, and
feasted and feted like a lprill prince; and
should Gen. Lee or Gen. Broken
ridge drop in on us, their presence
would create popular turore Does
the Times doubt or deny it? (.
And why is it that our people are
SO ready and eager to pay homage to
men SO recently in arms against the
United States? It is is simply -1rS owing to
the fact that a large portion of the bet
ter class Of the Northern people deeply
sympathized with the South in it's late
struggle for independence, while the
right Of coercion, denied by many lead
ing Northern men as well as newspa-
pers and political conventions, is stili
latently doubted by all who were edu-I
Gated in the State Rights schools. Be
sides this, the personal character and
military achievements of the generals
above mentioned have surrounded
them with the halo of military glory
which always takes the popular heart.
So, in answer to the sneers of the
Times, permit me to repeat the pre-
diction that the prominent heroes Of
the South have only to bide their time
tobeeome the popular idols ofthe peo-
pie of the Union. WA l eJ3.es
