According to Paris exchange report,
human hair is chiefly supplied to the
world Of fashion by France. The de-
partments OF Puy de Dombes, Cantal,
Correze, LoZere, La Nendee, Les Deux
Sevres, La Vienne, L'Allier, La Manche,
Les COtes du Nord, and Lille ct Vilaine,
are the best markets for this commodity.
Italy, Germany and Belgium likewise
compete with France, but cannot bear
her out of the field as to this supply OF
the raw material. Religious houses and
nuDneries supply large quantities.
The price of fundressed hair varies from
fifty francs the kilo to sixty francs. In
1865 the price rose from sixty-five to 100
francs the kilO. In France 6S, 900 kilo-
grammes Of human hair are sold snnu-
ally, 25, 600 kilos of which are worked
up into pOstiches Thirteen thousand
kilOs are exported to foreign countries.
The sale OF the raw material and its
value when worked into the plaits and
puffs and chignons which sdorn the
heads of the bellies, represent above
so, 600, 600 francs-that is, E8 200 coo, or
SIG 900 900.

SAYS that efficient and outspOken
journal, the Grenada Sentinel: There
is great change coming over
the people Of Mississippi. Many who
honestly went into the ranks Of the
Reconstruction party when they thought
that was the only means OF bringing the
State back into the Union have, since
the news Of the Northern elections,
swung around and are now battling
against those monstrous reconstruction
measures of Congress. Among the
number we see the names Of Col. d. g.
Glenn, Hons. VIM. Yerger, Fulton An
derson and others. OF the papers the
Natchez Democrat, Columbus Sentinel,
Handsboro Democrat and Southern
journal. The ball is moving and if the
election could be postponed long enough,
there would not be one honest white
voter in favor of Reconstruction left in
the State.

THE Washington Fayette county,

Ohio Register says
Twenty-three negro votes were pOlled
in this township on Tuesday, notwith-
standing the protestatious Of tChite men,
and we are glad, we rejoice to say, that
through this NEGRO VOTE, which
never before was polled in this township,
the men who were instrumental in bring
ing it to the polls, have been "hoisted
with their own petard,' and the Uhae
men of the township have rebuked the
advocates of negro suffrage, and cast
their ballots against the amendment and
the men in their midst who advocated
the monstrOsity.
The Cincinnati Enquirer, commenting
on the above, says:
What transpired there took place all
over the State. Not less than six hundred
negro votes, we are assured, were cast in
Greene county alone, in defiance of the
law. They were taken i8 Cleveland in
considerable numbers, and largely In the
Western Reserve. Some even were taken
in Cincinnati. II Gen. Hayes is elec-
ted, be probably owes it TO this frsudu-
lent negro vote. Our Democratic friends
owe il to themselves TO obtain a list Of all
these negro voters, and If they amount,
In magnitude, to Hayes majority, the
election should be contested, and the
Governors office given to Judge Thur
man.

sHAmED By THE INFIDEL.


The following is the text Of the am
nesty proclamation granted to the Gre
tans by the Sultan:
His Imperial Majesty the Sultan, con-
firming his promise and his ulterior pro-
clamatioDs, once more grants full aud
entire amnesty to the inhabitants OF
Crete, without any exception whatever.
The life and property Of every person is
assured, and no one shall be prosecuted
for any acts in which he may have par
ticipated now OF before. Every security
and protection will be afforded by the
Imperial Government to all those who,
after having given up their arms to the
Imperial authorities, return to their
homes and settle to work in a quiet and
honest way. The Imperial Government
solely prompted by the sincere desire Of
preventing the effusion Of blood, grants
to the armed foreigners now in the island,
and also 70 the natives who, enticed by
them, are actually in state Of revolt, q
definite delay of one month and half
ending on the 20th Of October next
During that respite the Imperial author
tiles will give all the necessary facilities
for the departure from the island of the
foreigners who, according to their own
choice, may embark on board Of foreign
ships, or those which will be placed st
their disposal by the Imperial Govern
ment. No obstacle whatever shall be
put in the way of natives wishing to
leave the island, and they will receive
the authorization TO emigrate with their
families on the condition Of dispOsing OF
everything they may possess in the
island, and cOnsenting not to return
without an especial authorization of the
Imperial government. During the above
mentioned delay of one month and a
half the Imperial troops shall continue
to preserve public peace in the countries
they hold. 10 order that the foreigners
and their native companions may avail
themselves Of the permission and favCr
granted to them they will not be mo-
Tested in the localities in which they
actually are, unless they should attack
the Imperial troops, or injure the loyal
population. In that case, the Imperial
troops shall pursue them till they shall
have been overcome. Should they per-
sist in remaining in the island after the
expiration of the delay, they will be
dealt with as insurgents. The blockade
is fully maintained. The cruising ships
will continue to prevent the landing on
the Cretan coast of men and ammuni-
ton.
The Sultan is wiser than the President.
The Infidel is more noble than the Chris
tian. Are the lessons Of the Koran bet
ter or more religiously observed, than
those of the Bible?

II the fruit trees are to be planted out,
the farmer should remember that some
thing more is necessary TO success than
merely digging post hole in the ground
and crowding the roots Of tree into it.
The ground upon which the rows oftrees
are to be planted out, should be plowed
deep enough to allow the surplus water
70 drain Off readily. II the ground is un-
derdrained, so much the better; but il
not, deep plowing will partially supply
the defect. The soil should be aided by
a free application Of well rotted manure,
enabling the rootlets to find ready sus-
tenance as they reach out in search Of it.
Many young trees die out the first sea-
son after planting in consequence Of the
slovenly manner Of putting them in the
ground.

10 ---, ESQ.,
Dear Sir: For the purpose of defrsy-
ing the proper aud legitimate expenses
OF the approaching election, the State
Committee are soliciting contributions
from the friends Of the Union cause and
the 6eRefcidri6S Of the Republican party.
Though you may not be holding, at
the hands Of the Republican party, pO-
sition which Is accounted a political
office, the Committee trust you will duly
appreciate the recognition which has
been accorded you; and we will feel
obliged by your handing such amount as
you may deem consistent TO contribute
for the above purpose, to Waldo
Hutchins, Esq, Treasurer, No. 40 Wall

In view OF the shOrtness Of the canvass,
an early response is requested.
Yours, very truly,

Hamilton Harris Chairman:
Sir: Your circular letter, under date
Of October 8. is received.
l acted with the Republican party in
arresting the spread Of slavery and effect
ing its entire abolition. l was proud also
20 devote my energies to carry on the
wsr for the Union and the Constitution (;
but the sharing Of government with the
iiliterate emancipated blacks, the estab-
lishmeut of a military despOtism over
one-third OF the Union, and by arbitrary
military power arresting the government
of States from white men and forcing it
into the hands Of semi-barhsriaus, and
taxing the lsOOrers OF the North TO up
hold II to the amount OF two hundred
millions of dollars per year, is an enter
tainment TO which I have not been invi-
ted. / therefore cannot comply with
your request L parted company with
the Republican party at the point where
its policies, as expressed through the de-
structive measures Of the Radical Con-
gress, sought to do this upon the ruins Of
the States. l believe that Congress to be
the sole obstacle to the restoration OF the
Union with the rights and oignities Of
the States unimpaiTed. You are also mis-
taken as classifying me as one Of
the beneficisries Of the Republican
party. You must refer to the twenty
five or thirty thousand tax assessors and
collectors, who stand upon every corner
OF the streets TO eItOrt the most onerOus
exsctiOns and eat out the substance Of
the people, mainly to uphold this fearful
experiment Of military despotism and
negro suffrage; or perhaps you allude to
the members OF the "canhl ring who
stand accused by honest officials in the
party with having robbed the peoples
treasury, betrayed high and honorable
official trusts, and disgraced the State OF
New York. These are the "bene-
ficiariesn to whom your application for
money to uphold such a rotten admins
tration Of public affairs should be sd
dressed. Or perhaps it may include the
kid glove and cologne gentry, who lux
uriste at Washington at the expense Of
honest industry, or to some partner in
the sale Of point lace dresses, Unmsde,
