Mr.. Beecher's latest eccentricity is to take
up the cudgel for the practice which some
persons have Of dyeipg the hair. The rever-
end moraist writes to The New York Ledger
eff q man is young, and from some peculiari-
ty of constitution, or by reason Of sickness, is
prematurely gray, whether he shall dye his
hair or not is matter of his own. If he will
be the happier for it, let him do it. II his vile
will love him any better, or if she will be made
any happier, in the name OF love let him dye.

chase at 80 small cost as bottle OF hair dye

appearance Of youth, and not to meet his fate

ourselves, we prefer gray hairs. a buckish
duf6 gentleman Of seventy-6ve, returning every
month from his barber with glossy brown
.lsoks, is not our style Of manhood. But if he
likes it, he might do things far worse. We
admire the bravery in woman by which, at
thirty.Aye, she carries her locks full of silver.
And yet, if her happiness may be promoted by
hiding the early gray, We see no reason Tor
