TIE RA&ss FOR BLONDE HAIR at the New York
theatre, having elected some lnvidious COM
ments from the critic of the Herald, the blonde
who is just now the leading lady at Niblo's,
comes out in the following tart card
NrBLo's GARDEN, February 8. 1869.
"I0 The Editor of the Herald:
II am really ashamed to trouble YOU on a
subject SO very unimportant s.my hair. but
for the lengthy article that appeared in the
Herald OF Sunday last, in which my name la
brought very conspicuously forward--excuse
me If am wrong las cloak to give some
critic somewhat spiteful opportunity Of con-
trasting real with imaginary blondes Nov,
as some time ago felt compelled to tell the
public, through the press, that my hair was not
brought to it's present hue by any artificial
means, but that i WAS born blonde and
blonde will die, it seems strange that the
writer OF the article in question should be ig-
norant OF that fact as 1t found publicity in sew
eral New York papers ; therefore, it impugns
my veracity, and on that ground alone beg to
trouble you with this letter, which I trust YOU
will kindly publish. am quite. willing to sub
init my head, with Ito .tawny' colored and Of
Tending crop, to be analysed, lie sncA process
can be effected and, as yonr critic facetiously
infsrs that ! have little. else either inside Or
outside my head but my hair. don't imagine
That any chemical procesa can do nd much
harm: At any rate, as my hair seems to form
one OF my chief attractions, its color and iegi-
macy must be protected by your most obedient
servant, LYDIA TRoskpsoN."

advantages, and each having advocates and
opponents. Most Of the plantations in this
vicinity are organized for the present year.
the laborers mostly being hired for wages,
but some are employed ''on shares" In re-
gard to wages it is difficult to say what are the
rates paid. There would seem to bono fixed
rule. each party Of course doing the best he
can for himself. Thus I have heard of prime
hands i,a getting from So to s12 per month and
found" There are but few women compare
lively hiring out as field hands. Where they
make contracts they usually only receive two
thirds Of full rates.
Those who "crop' with the hands give, I
think, about one-half the proceeds. less the
current expenses. Some, from necessity,
have been compelled to agree to receive SER
vice IRON the freedmen jim lieu of rent That
is to say, those not having the means or the
credit to provide the requisite OUTLAY where-
with to maintain hands and working animals
during the spring and summer, have agreed to
rent land to negroes, with the stipulation that,
IN lieu OF rent, these tenants are to work two
days in the week for their landlords. If Ihave
been correctly informed, these are the terms
upon which many Of the sea island planta-
tions are being worked this year.
On the whole, think the farming prospects,
for this year are fair in this part of the State
and most of the planters are hopeful. Indeed,
oil classes are in better Spirits and not few
are in far way of making money. January
has been fine month for plantation work.

A WORD TO OUR FRIENDS.

We desire to say to every Democrat who
reads this paper that the circulation of good,
sound Democratic sheets is of the first i'm
portancc at this time AS a party we have
never given so much cxertion to supplying
this need as we should. The Republicans
have always seen the advantage to be deriv-
ed from circulating their party papers, and
have reaped corresponding benefits. Let it
be 50 no longer. Every one Of our subscrib-
ers can get another one, if he will give 4
moments time to the matter. Wemakc these
remarks in the interest Of Democracy, and
not for our special advantage. If the Dem
ocrats of any locality like another paper bet
ter than ours, let them take it-but be sure
to aid in circulating some Democratic paper
We will send specimen copies gratis to names
that may be sent to rs.
