Fashions and Follies of Hair.

"a woman's glory is her hair,
has been often quoted. Ifit be, she
is determined to dim it in these days
of artifoiality and fashionable folly.
Now she twists not only her own hair,
but as much as she can purchase, in
TO the most unseemly aud grotesque
shapes, mnrring, us if with premedita-
ted bad taste, every graceful curve
and every line of beauty. A fash
ionabIe woman's head at present is a
wonder of unsightliness. One would
not think so many Of the sex could,
without positive genius for the hide
Gus, so deferm themselves as they DO
in single sitting.
They rise in the morning, and SO
from the bath comely and charming
as nature created them. They appear
two hours after, fresh from the hands
Of their maid or their own manipu-
lations, olaborately wrought out ofall
symmetry and attractiveness, espe.
cially in regard to the hair.
Ingenuity appears to have been ex.
hausted of late years to make woman'f
hair look like anything else; to give
her head size aud form aud proper
ton little less than repulsiyo. Curls,
crimps, band, waterfalls, and we know
not what, vie with each other in de-
stroying the fair semblauce Of the
human head. The more homely q
fashion, the more likely 1t is to be a
favorite. The more uncomely, the
more apt il is to endure.-A.

MY NEWSPAPER.

Who can estimate the value Of a
newspaper? No one, until he has
lost it-until the pleasant periodical
visits, like the face Of dear friend,
bringing such fund of w.t.. news,
and general intelligence that he is
always greeted with a hearty well
come, are withdrawn. 1t is, in one
sense, the light of the world, without
which the mental universe would be
as much in darkness as the terrestrial
is without the sun.
There are books, it is true, good,
wise, instructive, and entertaining I;
but they do not tell of what we want
to know of passing events, or direct
us to the best places of business.
Neither do they inform us who of
our friends are passing away or get
ting married, or who is doing driv-
ing business, or who has sailed for
the Eastern Continent, or who has
returned from tour thither, etc.

Death Of Charles F. Browne,

A Cable dispatch brings tho sad
news of the death of our former
towusman, Charles F. Browuc- known
the world over as "Artemus Ward"
which occurred at Southampton,
England, on the 9th inst.
1t was in Cleveland that our de,
ceased friend first attracted attention
as humorous writer; he being at
that time the "city editor" of the
Plain Dealer. lie was native of
New England, whore family friends
still reside We believe in Maine
The death of Mr. Browne is not en-.
tirely unexpected, for those who
Knew him best have for years been
aware that his constitution was ftail,
aud that he, himself, has been con.
stantly solicitous with regard to his
health.
Mr., Browne was very genial man;
aud favorite among all his ocquoint.
aucos. lie delighted to say a witty
thing, but never wished to do so at
the expense of pang to friend or
Zoe. While thoro we're always two
opinions in regard to hN peculiar tai
ent as a humorist, his great success
stamped him as a man Of remarkable
endowment. Those who best knew
him enjoyed his writings most, for he
had peculiar way of saying a witty
thing which gave it great zest, and
hence in reading his articles an nc
quaintanco would also imagine how
Browne would look in repeating
them.
Our dead frioud was withal, o very
modest man; he distrusted his own
powers, aud his remarkable success
, was constant matter of surprise &C
, him. He was more successful as {
J speaker, than as mere writer tina
is, his illusions needed his manner {,
) give them piquaucy, He had not tn,
. least orstory, but there was an indie
J scribable humor in the way he "spok,
his piece" His wit was a plant o
spontaneous growth, and did no
: arise from cultivation. His attempts
to furnish so many columns weekly
by contract were failures. His hui
; NOR was excited, perhaps, by an in
oident, aud upon tho impulse of the
moment he would jot it down. Hence
his early, olf-haud, unstudied, news
Q paper articles were his most rae.
: ones.
But is not our intention to writ
: what may be called "a notice of ou
! deceased friend, for the sad new
comes TO us late at night, and thi
must appear in the morning issue.-
All we wish now to do, is, to add ou
) tribute to the warmth of the heart
! and the overhowing kindliness, tina
marked as genial friend him VIII
has lightened so many hours for 9th
: ers, and who has died far away frol
u those who, beneath the witty atmO'
phere that surrounded the non {
plume of "Artemus Ward" apprcci
a ate the real merits Of Charles
Browne. CIeueldne Herald.
