PARTING ritz HAIR -Effeminaie men
have long considered it the thing TO part
the hair of their heads in The middle,
while on the other hand dashiug young
women, given to m,sculine WAYS, delight
to appear with short culey hair parted at
the side; 10 both cases the parties show
themselves in their true character, and
it would be we'll if the law allowed them
to change costumes with each other. By
paris letter it appears that this side
parting is to be the fashion. We doubt
it, mainly because such a division Cannot
be becoming unless long trasscs are
sacrificed and few OF the bellies will con-
sent to that. 1t is fortunate this Is the
case. We do not deny hat handsome
girl adds to her style, we cannot say her
beauty, by parting her hair at the side J.
but it gives such an air Of fastness that
we should not like the custoEa to become
general. We are Of the same opinion
in the matter as was the gentleman Of
fitting hoops. who sa ID: "Well, rather
do like filters. so long as they are onl
worn BIZ other fellows wives"

INTEREST DtRlNe THE WAR The bill
to abate interest on debts during the war
failed to pass the Legislature. A mis-
statement Of facts, connected with Judicial
decisions on the interest question has been
made during the debate on thc sui jet
1t has been contended that the Z. S.
Supreme Court had deci ed that in terest
was not colectabe for the time during
TIE war between the States. This de-
cision had no reference to obligations
between ciliz ans Of the san, State, en-
gagged in a common cause. It had up
plcation to debts existing between the
citizens of States which we're separa
ted by reason of tue war, aud where
it was physically impossible to make
payment. The same principle of law was
adjudicated after the revolution, as
between creditor and debtor, residing re-
spectively in England and the Uui,ei
States. Our attention was called to thi;
error of statement, BY an in:elligen
lawyer Of this city, and hence this allusiol
