Common schools and universities of the
highest grade go hand in hand. One can
not flourish in State without the other.
The universities ought to furnish teachers
for the common schools, and common
schools prepare our young men for en-
trance TO the higher walks oi learning in
the universities. Such is the relation be
tween the two in thuse States where edu-
cation has become universal. Oar party

PETRIFIED wOMEN.


A correspondent Of the Boston Journal, writ
Ing from Pittsford Vermont, sends the following
about petriaed women;
An item has been going the rounds Of the
newspapers throughout the country, to the effect
that the pstri6sd body Of a woman had been
which has caused great excitement and wonder,
not only among the citizens Of Vermont, but in
other places. Many letters Of inquiry have been
addressed to old residents In this vicinity, CON-
cerning the matter, among which Waa one from
the Vermont agent Of the Smithsonian Institute
of Washington, who states the case to be the
only one known in this country, and rather
doubling its authenticity. As the first state
ment was published through me, and doubts are
raised aa to It's truthfulness, took occasion to
visit the town Of Pittnford for the purpose OF
getting at the facts in the case, and nd the fol-
lowing statement to be strictly true:
Mrs. Lincoln, wife Of the late Captain John
H. Lincoln, Of Pittsford, died from the effects Of
the rupture Of q blood yessel-aftsr living but
one hour-in the year 1862. In October, 1868,
the body was disnterred for the purpose Of de-
posting it in the new cemetery, when 1t was dis
covered to be In q perfect state of petriaoation,
and SO solid as to resist several hard blows by .
heavy hammer, the same as If it had bssn Of the
hardest marble. The appearance of the body
and features we're very natural, with the excep.
tion Of the eyes, which we're entirely obliserated,
leaving the sockets smpty. The hair was Of the
same color and apparent flsxibility as when hrsi
buried; the color of the body Of light, yel-
lowish white, and 50 perfect In all respects as to
easily be made to stand on its feet. The re-
mains when inferred were dressed In black silk
and when disinterred black mold completely
covered the surface, but was easily brushed off
revealing what appeared to bs perfect marble
statue.
Mrs. Pen6eld, wife Of the late sturgis Penhsld
Of Pittsford. after sickness Of three days viii
the dysentery, died and was buried In the SAM
ground In the year 1854, was taken up for re
noval last spring, and was found to be in th
same state Of pstrifsctlon as Mrs. Lincoln, viii
the exception Of the flesh on her fingers, whlol
had dseayed entirely of, leaving the bones Of tn
6ngers the same as the rest Of the body-entire
ly petrihed.
Mr.. Jed. Thomas, who acted IS sexton In re
moving these bodies, and also several prominsr
citizens of Pittsford, who were eye-witnssses
the transactions, have testified to the corrsctneI
Of these statements. The soil Of this buril
ground is Of moist, graselly hard-pan, with Q
indications Of any substance foreign to the re
Of the soil In and about Pittsford, and the tv
cases reported are the only ones yet disOOvere
though over seveniy-hvs bodies have been r
moved from the same locality within the pa
seven years.

CURIOUS PARlsIAN GOSSIP ABOUT Ste
PHENs, THE FENIAN LEADER.-A Paris cor
respondent of Western journal furnishes
the following:
James Stephens is living at No. 90 Romey
street, at Montmarte, where he seems to be
quite comfortable, having his wife and broth
er.in-law with him, which does not prevent
him from complaining of his poverty. A
few days ago one of his countrymen, who
had not penny, came to solicit his aid. II
have not dollar, my lad, replied he, ''but
come with me, perhaps may procure some
help for you" On the road they met
passer-by, whom Stephens declared to be an
acquaintance of his, and, leaving his help
less companion, he chatted for an instant with
bis "tr1end." "Here," said Stephens, re-
| turning to the Irishman, there are five francs;
this gentleman has lent me ten; it ID all
have; let us share" This said, Stephens
left his companion. The latter short time
after was near carriage stand, and to his
surprise saw Stephens engage one and get
in. Our Irishman considered 1t odd that
man who had but five francs should engage
a carriage at fifty SOUS an hour. He seated
himself patiently near the carriage stand,
and waited till either the carriage or Stephens
should raturn. At the end of three hours
the carriage returned. Stephens had paid
for tho three hours. Another fact, still mors
serious, is that Stephens visits the English
embassy In secret. What does he do there

that her nsighbors will not estimate that strength
below its value; while to calm their jealous ap.

had witnessed the grief Of a mother or
husband, conhdlng tales of incipient bald
ness to the family physician, and seeking in
vain for some means of restoring the hair on
the unfertile head of the beloved one. To
tell the truth, we might smile at the anxiety
of marrying mother who had just made
the discovery that, unless she got rid Of her
daughter by certain time, her daughter
would get rid of her hair, ard become an
unstable article; but we hope we should
know how 10 respect the noble sorrow of a
husband wishing in vain that in middle age
the tresses of his wife were as luxuriant as
in early youth, and refusing to be consoled
because they were not. Those who have
read Mirabeau's rather too passionate love-
letters must remember how frantic he used
to get at the notion of his Sophies shedding
her beautiful hair. In brief moment of
calmness he tells her how to save it without
employing any of the preparations recon-
mended by DR.. Constantin James. She is
to avoid pomatums and washes Of every
kind, and to moisten it often with cold
water. AS Mirabeau, soon after his liberia
tion from prison, quarrelled with Sophie,
we are left without information as to the
effect of his very simple receipt. Who
knows but that it failed, and that his ardent
love cooled in consequence.
MAKE your hair grow il you can, t" is DR..
James's rather superhuous advice. Plough
with the comb, harrow with the brush,
manure with quinine pomatum, and you
may perhaps improve your crop. If not,
your losa is only ANAL pecuniary one, and
what you lose, the perfumer gains. But
don't dye your hair on any account, and, In
the first place, for the reason suggested In a
couplet of ovld's addressed to young lady
who had ungratefully tried to change the
true color of the magnificent hair given to
her by nature:--
81 told you not to dye your hair,
And now you have no hair to dye"
But loss of hair is not the greatest evil 20
be apprehended from the use of hair-dyes.
The celebrated French actress, Mdlle. Mars,
lost her life through it. She dyed her hsii

POISONING By SILK THREAD.-The silk
thread employed by sesmstresses is liable TO
acquire poisonous properties in consequence
of fraudulent practice described as follows;
"The value of the best quality varies from
sixty to seventy francs pound, and the ma
terial is sold wholesale by weight. For many
wears 1t has been the custom to increase the
weight by sleeping the silk in sugar and
water, or in an infusion of gall-nuts; but this
fraud not being found to yield sufficiently
large profits, patent was taken out for
another plan, which consists in soaking the
silk, whatever its color, in bath of acetate
of lead, and after drying the akeins, expos
ing them to a current of hydrosulphuric
acid.
The result is the deposition of quantity
of sulphuret of lead, which greatly adds to
the weight of the thread, and, therefore, to
it's mercantile value. We are acquainted
with person at the head of an extensive
dressmaker's establishment, who, from the
, use Of silk thread thus prepared, was attack
/ ed, as we'll as her washerwomen, with pain
, ter's collie; some of the women even lose
their teeth in consequence OF their habit OF
