Manufacture of Beauty.

A foreign paper describes the making
up fashionable beauty in Paris at the pres
ent time. First among the beautiful appii-
ances comes the Vestris enamel-an elastic
pigment which fills up all indeutations of
the skin, pockmarks, burrows, scars, etc.
1t Is the same color of the flesh, and yields
to the color of the muscles. After being
carefully filed, wherever requisite, the whole
face is washed with blanc de pe1les. 4 del
icate powder, called bloom of roses is
then applied In small quantities TO the
cheeks, Not the rouge or carmine used by
actresses to neutralize the ghastly blue
glare cast up byfootlights.) Next,eye color
Is employed to impart expression to the
eyes The ''eye color" consists of three
preparations-the first to Garken the eye
brows, perfect their shape, and add to the
upper and lower lashes; the second to re-
move crows feet, and the third, which is
peculiar blush powder. lightly laid on, just
under the eye, to increase the apparent size
and add briliiancy Another preparation
stains the lips and gums natural looking
red; unnatural looking, from its bright
ness, would be the most correct description.
4 powerful dentifric whitens the teeth, and
probably hastens their decay; the unsightly
hair growing out moles, and the unfenlinine
down shading of the upper lip, are destroy
ed by depilatOres freckles and skin stains
are removed by paste, which is said to de-
compose them and fern new scurf skin;
tresses of any shade receive the much admir-;
ed hay color, or a golden hue, from Alba
nian water" or any darker tint, by the use
Of some other hair wash; and the nails are
rendered delicate and induced TO grow in the
form required. by nail shields worn at night

THELoGIc OF EARLY RIsING.-''H He who
would thrive, must rise at five" So says
the proverb, though there is more rhyme
than reason in it, for if He who would
thrive, must rise at five. it must naturally
follow, that He who would thrive more,
must rise at four; and it will insure as a
consequence that if
He who would still more thriving be,
Must leave his bed at turn of three;
And who this latter would outdo,
Must rouse him at the stroke of two"
And by way of climax to it all, it should
be held that
He who would never he outdone,
Must ever rise as soon as one.
But the best illustration would be,
HE who would flourish best of all,
Should never go to bed at all T"

Russian AmuSements.

In February occurs the famous festival of
IndstOnttsa, or butter week, which contains
the sum and substance of all Russian festiv
ity All tie butter that should naturally
have gone into the consumption of the sue
ceeding seven weeks is concentrated into
this. Whatever can be eaten with butter Is
buttered what cannot is rejected as unwor-
thy of being used. The standard dish of
the week is blitai, kind of pancake, made
with butter, fried with butter, and eaten
with butter sauce. Breakfast dispatched,
come the amusements. Formerly the fro
zen plain of the Neva was used for the va
rious passtimes, but some years since the Ice
gave way under the immense pressure, and
large number of the revelers were drown
ed Since then the large square of the Ad-
mirality has been devoted to this purpose.
Thither, for days previous, long trains of
sledges are seen thronging to the spot, bear.
ing timberS, poles, planks, huge blocks of
ice, and all materials necessary for the erec
ton of booths, theatres, swings and slides.
4 hole is dug in the frozen ground, into
which the end of post is placed. 1t is
then filed with water, which, under the in
fuence of Russian February, binds it in
its place as firmly as though it were loaded
into a solid rock
The carnival commences on the first Sun
day of the butter week, and all St Peters
burg gives itself up to sliding and swinging,
or to watching the sliding and swinging of
others The most striking winter spectacle
of St. Petersburg, is that of the ice noun
tainS, which are in full glory during this
butter week" To form these, narrow
scafold is raised to the height of some thir-
ty or forty feet. This has on one side some
steps fer the purpose of ascending; on the
other II slopes of, steeply at first, and then
more gradually, until it finally terminates on
level. Upon this long slope blocks of ice
are laid, over which water is poured, which,
freezing unites the blocks and furnishes
uniform surface. down which the merry
crowd slide upon sledges, or, more frequent
ly upon smooth blocks of ice cat into suit
able form This is national amusement
among the Russians, and so much priced,
that an imitation mountain, made of polish
ed wood, is used for the same sport in sum
mer.

whining" Women,

Brigham Young, of Utah, has been blow
ing up the women OF that free and easy ter
ritory in manner at once awful and unique.
He accuses them of whining, and says
that they must either stop that sort of
nonsense" or else start for the other side OF
Jordan at once-and he tells his own forty
wives that he means them, as well as the
rest of the feminine Utahans. He says the
kernel OF the whole dlthculty-the direct
occasion of the disagreeable aud unbearable
Winnings" lies in the fact that ''the wo-
men expect too much of the Saintsl" He
says that the women-even his own forty
are so weak minded as to suppose that the
Sanity Elders of the Mormon Israel can
make heaven on earth for them-and that
after woman has entered Saint family,
and finds that after all he is not able to make
a heaven on earth for her, she begins 10
whine and talk about too many wives" and
the ''evils Of polygamy, and such ike bias
phemous twaddle. Brigham also says it is
his opinion that any woman who ever lived
would be disappointed in the best Saint in
Utah, should she marry him-and on this
point we unreservedly agree with Brigham.
Tie Governor gave all the women warning
that two weeks from the date of his sermon
against whining he should call on them
either to promise never to whine any more,
or else leave the territory, bag and baggage,
saying that he would even send off all his
own wives, and go to heaven alone, sooner
than take such whining crew along
with him We shall await the next news
from Utah with deep interest

Negro Superstition,

As strange as it may appear, many of the
colored people here cherish the belief that
there is class of physicians who practice
lurking and are addicted to the dissec
ton of live human subjects for the purpose
of manufacturing castor oil, ana that for this
purpose the doctors prefer bodies with dark
cutice. This opinion Is so firmly impressed
on their minds, that no amount of reason
ing viii remove it, and we know many of
them, particularly Juvenile Africans, who
will not bulge foot outside their dwellings
AFTER dark. An otherwise intelligent Top
gy." employed by us, thus describes the n.o-
DIS operandi Of these imaginary ghouls, by
saying: aDey steal upon de culled persons
unawars, clap a plaster over deir mout to
keep um from hollerin', and den drag um
away to whar dey lay UNI on table and cut
um up, and den bile um down for lie. . This
is a cheerful notion to those invalids who use
the oil of the palma christa bean as cathar-
tic. The Annapolis (Md) Republican
states that similar belief prevails among
the colored people in that section, and it
probably exists elsewhere. How it origina-
ted is impossible to tell Washington Star.

THE ESKATER.

The skater lightly laughs and glides,
Unknown that beneath the ice
Whereon he carves his fair device
A stifeued corpse in silence giides
T, vlareth upward at his play
Is cold. blue, rigid fingers steal
Beneath the tracing OF his heel,
II floats along and floats away.
He has not seen its horrors pass;
His heart is blithe; the village hears
His distant laughter; he careers
In festive waltz athwart the glass.
We are the skaters, we who skim
The sarface of Life's solemn food,
And drive with gladness in our blood,
A daring dance from brim TO brim.
Our feet are swift. our faces burn,
Our hopes aspire like soaring birds;
The world takes courage from our words,
and sees the golden time return.
But ever near US, silent, cold.
Float those who bounded from the bank
With eager hearts, like US, and sank
Because their feet were over bold.
They sank through breathing holes of vice,
Through treacherous sSeens Of unbelief;
They know not their despair and grief;
Their hearts and minds are turned to ice

A CATHOLIC PRIEST TURNED PRoTEs-
TANT.-A remarkable event took place last
night at Clark Street Methodist Church,
says the Chicago Tribune of Dec. 18th,
where a prayer meeting was being held by
the members of the congregation. During
the course of the proceedings a Roman Cath
olic priest Father Kenny, of Dubuque
arose and formally renounced his faith, in
presence of the congregation. Father Ken
ny has officiated for several years past at
Dubuque, Serious doubts as to the efficacy
of the Roman Catholic faith in saving souls
have for some time agitated his mind, and
he finally determined to adopt the rotes-
tant creed He stated his reasons for so
doing to the meeting, and produced creden-
tials from the Bishop and clergy regarding
his character, which were entirely satisfac
tory. 1t Is understood that Father Kenny

A beautiful and accomplished young lady
of one OF the wealthiest families of Louis
vile has recently pined away to a mere
shadow without any perceptible cause. Her
friends were sorely perplexed to learn the
cause, but all to no avail Last week the
mystery was solved. The girl was discov-
cred TO be sleep-walker, getting up in her
night clothes every night and visiting an
arbor attached to her residence, where she
spent. in dreamy silence, several hours and
would then return to the parental roof. OF
course she would be unconscious next day
of her walk and rigid airing of the night
previous.
