How to JUDGE Character by the Hair

Course black hair and dark skin signify
great power of character, with tendency
to sensuaIity. Fine hair and dark skin
indicate strength OF character, along with
purity and goodness. Stiff, black hair and
beard Indicate a course, strong, reid,
STRAIGHTFORWARD character. Fine dark
brown hair Signifies the combination of
exquisite sensihilitles With great strength
Of character. Harsh, upright hair is the
sign Of reticent and sour spirit; a stub
born and harsh character Course red
hair aud whiskers indicate powerful ami
NAL passions, together with a correspond
ing strength of character Auburn hair
with ford countenance denotes the highest
order cf sentiment and intensity of feeling.
purity Of character with the highest ca
pacity for enjoyment or suffering. Straight,
even, smooth glossy hair denotes strength,
harmOnyi and evenncsS of character, hear
ty affections, a clear head and superior
talents Fine, silky, supple hair Is the
mark of a delicate and sensitive terpera-
ment, and speaks in favor cf the mind and
character Of the owner. Crisp curly hair
Indicates a hasty, somewhat impetuous,
andsrash character White hair denotes a
Emphatic and INDECENT constitution: and
We may add that besides all these qualities
there are chemical properties residing in
the coloring matter Of the hair-tube which
undoubtedly have some effect upon the
disposition. Thus, red haired people are
VIGOROUSLY passionate. Now, red hair is
proved by analysis TO contain a large
amount Of sulpher, whilst very black hair
is colorcd with almost pure carbon. The
presence Of these matters in the blood
points to pecullarities Of temperament and
feeling which are almost universally asso-
{ ciated with them. The very way in which
the hair flows is strongly indicative of the
ruling passions and incinations, and per.
haps a clever person could give shrewd
disposition by only seeing the backs Of
| their heads.

five are to believe the reports Of tho
late battle at Montana, between the Ital-
ians and the French and papal troops,
Napoleon has obtained in the Chassepot
rife weapon fully as destructible as the
Prussian needle gun. General de Failly,
in his official dispatch to the French Waf
Department, states that whereas only two
French soldiers were Killed and thirty six
wounded, the Garibaldians suffered loss
Of six hundred killed outright, together
with a proportionate number Of wounded.

that they possess the cooIness and sang

Scraps from the Message.

The committee of impeachment need
not to have summoned "a cloud Of wit
nesses'' to prove that the president is po-
litically offensive to them. The following
passages from The president late message
wou!d have suliced On that point
There is no Union as our fathers under
stood the term.
1t is melancholy fact that the states
are not restored.
To me the process Of restoration seems
perfectly plain and simple.
The mere naked will Of this government,
or of any or more Of is branches, is the
culv obstacle 10 a perfect tnI0n.
Usurpalon is the most dangerous OF pc
lificai crimes.
The acts Of congress confound all togeth
CT in one common doom Unfortunately.
1t is the curse Of despotlsm that it has no
hating place.

Of the reconstruction laws to confer upon
negroes the privilege Of voting, and to dis
franchise such white citizens as viii give
the former a clear majority at all elections

Ii is proposed that the black race shall
rule the white race......that the future des-
tiny Of the country be placed III their hands
w negro domination would be worse than

south.
The negroes are taught that every white
man who has any respect for the rights OF
his own race Is their enemy.

Frantic Fishing.

II was once on Lake Winnipisiogee, in
the winter fishing for pickerel,' says
Brown it was awful cold, and the ice was
lour and half feet thick. Father was
with me, and while | was thrashing my
hand to keep 'em warm, noticed that the
old man had al alfred hard bite. 1t was

a bite, and up | hauls the old man, as fresh
as ever. Bat gentlemen, he kept the to-

audience, as though the yarn was not be-

Brown and that reminds me Of another
story, which | don't mind telling. One

Another prolonged whistle, and some
one asked Brown how seven pound fish
could get through an augur hole.
That's somethin | has nothin' to do

Fr-NpP.r ORsroI1rs.--A funeral pro

FUNERAL OBsEQUIEs.--A funeral pro-
cession in honor Of the Fenians who were
recently hung IN Manchester, England,
came off in New York on the 28th ult., and
was most imposing spectacle. About s.
600 Irishmen formed in long column, four
deep, and marched through the principal
thoroughfare8 attended by three hcarscs,
each containing a coffin, on which was in
scribed the name of one Of the executed
men. The procession halted in the Union
Square, where orations were delivered ex-
toling the heroism of the martyrs and the
cause for which they died.
On the lst inst, the obscquics Of Allen,
Gould, and Larkin, were observed with
much solemnity in Manchester England, by
the Irish inhabitants. A funeral process
sion passed through the streets and meet
ing was held. No attempt was made by
the authorities to interfere with the pro-
ceedings, and 10 disturbance whatever oc-
Cured. ~.
A great demonstration Of sympathy for
the three Fenians who were executed at
Manchester was also held in Cork on the
LIST. The ceremonies were similar to those
which took place in London on Sunday,
November oath. The funeral procession
was very long and imposing. 1t was head
ed by a lofty catafalque, trimmed with
green and black, and drawn by SIX horses.
This was followed by nearly 20, 600 persons,
most Of whom wore green emblems STROUD
ed with Grape. Over 800 women took
part in the procession. Good order pre-
vailed throughout the day.

TIGHT TINES AMONG Dry GooDs MFR
CHANTS. The retail dry goods dealers, in
New York, are about to enter on a general
cutting down Of the wages of clerks, al
ready unusually low The losses Of the
heavy dealers are said to have been very
large. 1t is stated that a. T. STEWART 5
losses amount to over million, and other
large houses have lost from Sl00, 900 to
100000, and this by the decline in prices
alone. A number of small, wholesale and
retail, have failed, and the large establish
ments to whom they were indebted have to
bear the loss There has been considerable
eativity in trade since tie elections, and a
belief that prices have touched bottom has
checked the panicky feeling that prevailed,
but the shrewdest of the old merchants
says a great many failures are yet to come.

sa2-The Now York Times recognizes
the conflict between the east aud the west
on the financial question, and advises
stopping contraction Of tie currency as the
remedy. That will hot be satisfactory.
The west desires the cancellation of the
gold bearing bonds, as fast as possible,
and thus stop the interest, also the right
to tax property thus invested for the sup
port of the government. Eastern capital
lists desire to hold them as at present freed
from taxes. That is the irrepressible
conflict"

Romance in Real Life.
From the Louisville; Courier, Nov. IS

The four unfortunate Misses Morgan,
who were burned to death by the dreadful
accident on the railroad, near Cincinnati,
Oh Thursday morning last, were ladies Of
education, refinement, &c. d less, and re-
spoctablllty, and, as we have already sta
ted, daughters Of the late Mr.. Benjamin
Morgan, formerly If the firm Of Price &
Morgan, merchants in Philadelphia, and
aiterward President Of the Bank Of Louis
iona, at New Orleans, and interested in
large sugar estates. At the time Nessrs.
PRICE / Morgan dissolved partnership, they
each possessed a handsome fortune and
they mutually agreed that In case of pc
cuniary misfortune or loss Detailing either
Of them, the other, if still in good circum-
slances, was TO share his property with the
unfortunate one Many years a,tcrward
1Ir. Chandler Price failed in Philadelphia,
and Mr. Benjamin Morgan transferred to
him a tine row OF buildings on Tchoupitou-
las street, New Orleans. Some years
after, and about the time Of Nj. Morgan :
death, the latter became much cmbarrass-
ed by Endorsements for his acquaintance.
Mr.. Price having in the meantime ac-
cumulated another fortune, after the death
OF bis old partner rec0nveyed the same
valuable property on Tchoupitoulas street
to Mr.. Morgan's children. This IS one OF
the rare instances, in this life, Of faithful,
honorable, and undying friendship, and
quite as extraordinary as tAat all four OF
the daughters should be killed at one fell
swoop, a thousand miles from home.

gsy~ There were 24,0S2 Springfield rifle
nuskets converted into breach leaders dur
ing the past fiscal year at the national
armory, and about 100000 muskets, car
bines and sabres were cleaned and repaired
there. All converted arms have been issued
to troops, and nearly all infantry serving
in the departments Of the Missouri and
Platte have been armed with them
Monthly reports received from commanders
e companies so armed have been highly
favorable to the arm, ard furnish evidence
OF its excellence and fitness for military SER
vice. The almost unanimous opinion ex-
pressed by the officers Is that the musket is
simple, strong, and not liable to get out OF
order, and extremely accurate in firing.

Good Night.
BY T B. ALDRIcH.

Good night! have to say good night
To such a host Of peerless things
Good night unto that fragile hand,
Ali queenly with its weight of rings
Good night to fond uplifted eyes
Good night to chestnut braids Of hair
Good night unto the perfect mouth
And all the sweetness nestled there
The snowy hands detain me, then
I'll have to say good night again
But there will come a time, my love,
When, if | read our stars Alright
shall not linger by the porch
With my adieux. Till then, good night
You wish the time were now And |.
You do not blush to wish it so
You would have blushed yourself to death
To own as much year ago
What, both those snowy hands2 all, then,
I'll have to say good night again.

MARRIAGE BY WHOLESALE. A most

MARRIAGE BY WHOLESALE. A most
extraordinary matrimonial engagement
has lately been consummated in Chicago
The bare announcement of Married on
the inst, by the Rev. Mr., at the resi-
dence of the father Of the three brides, Mr.
Frank Ulbrich to Miss Barbara Schnur;
also Mr. Angus tus Ulbrich to Miss Mary
Schnur, also Mr.. Henry Ulbrich to Miss
Elizabeth Schnur, would tell nearly the
whole story, the only real necessary addi-
tional information being that the three
bridegrooms are brothers, and that the
happy brides are sisters, and that, in both
instances, it finished up the family. 1t
was literally the marriage of two entire
families.
The three Ulbriches ale all thrifty young
men representing as many different trades,
and the trio of daughters were comely, and
reared to habits of industry and frugality.
1t was an economical arrangement, thus
wooing and marrying at wholesale; a great
saving in lights and fuel and the expenses
Of the wedding festivities was effected
Anu then, in the matter Of keeping the
family records, it was great convenience
to have the both families merged iuto one.
