SHERMAN AND Tue WAR DEPARTMENT. -
The Washington Chronicle oI yesterday, III an
editorial upon the removal OF Gen, Sherman 5
hracquallcIs to st. Louis, says:
Nv t. have the hie hest authority Tor saying
that the personal relations between the Secrc-
tary Of War ard the General of the Army arc
cordial and friendly, and that there has been
noupsn rupture. Gen. Shcrman's removal is
laac at this time on account of private and
personal matters, which, in his Judgment, un
doraI the circumstances Justify his course. But
1t Is equally true that hau he any duties to per-
iolm as General Of the Army he would remain
Al the Capital. His letter 70 the Secretary of
War has, as yet, never been answered, nor lis
receipt acknowledged He has no authority,
nor is his position recognized in the govern
mrnt of the army. Orders go direct from the
Secretary OF ar to the commanders OF troops
moving companies aud moving regiments Of
which he knows nothmg unless he incidentally
learns ii in the newspapers. Courts martial
are ordered, the sentences revlcwd, and the
punishment executed without his knowledge.
The Chrouclc further remarks:
1T is due the present Secretary OF War to
say that the orders and present usages of the
War Department concerning the relative au-
thorlry Of the Secretary of War aud the Gen.
cra OF the Army, were determined and acted
upon 10y his predecessor in that office, and that
he has not, as has been asserted, inauguratcd
a'y nrw doctrine or construction Of law.

Coarse, black hair and dark skin,
signify great power of character, with
a tendency to sensuality. Fine black
hair and dark skin indicate, strength
of character along with purity and
goodness. Stiff, straight black hair
and beard indicate a coarse strong,
rigid, straightforward character. Fine
dark brown hair signifies the combina.
ton of exquisite sensibilities with great
strength of character. Harsh upright
hair is the sign of reticent and sour
spirit stubborn aud harsh character.
Flat, cliuging straight hair, melan-
choly but extremely constant character.
Coarse red hair indicates powerful an
imal passion, together with cores
ponding strength of character.
Auburn hair, with ford eountenance,
denotes the highest order of sentiment
and intensity of feeling, purity Of char
acter, with the highest capacity of en-
joyment or suffering. Straight, even,
smooth. glossy hair denotes strength ,har-
mony, and evenness of character, hear
ty affections, a clear head, and superb
or talents. Fine silky, supple hair is
the mark Of delicate and sensitive
temperament; speaks in favor of the
mind and character of the owner. Crisp
curly hair indicates a hasty, somewhat
impetuous and rash character. White
hair denotes Emphatic and INDECENT
constitution; aud we may add that be-
sides all the qualities there are chemic-
al properties residing in the coloring
matter Of the hair tube, which undoubt.
edly have some effect upon the DISPOSE
ticn. Thus, red haired people are no
toriously passionate. Now red hair is
proved to contain a,large amount of sui
phur, whilst very black is colored with
almost pure carbon. The presence of
these matters in the blood points TO
peculiarities of temperament and feel
ing which are almost universally asso-
eiated with them. The very way in
which the hair flows is strongly indica-
tive of the ruling passions and inclina-
tons.

There are conditions in winch home
sickness assumes the form of disease
known as nostalgia" Many oppor-
tuaities have enabled pathologists and
other scientific men to trace the causes
and effects OF this disease; but its seat
has been sought for in vain. Some ia
tai examinations have been credited to
the disorder, but we incline to the
opinion that 1t never killed any one d.
rectly, only through diseases superln-
duced by the depression of spirits
which it occasioned. The French
Medical Academy thought the subject
worthy of prize essay, which, when
produced, threw much useful light up
on 1t. The French, Swiss. and Italians
are among the nations most subject to
the affection, and that will account for
the comparatively small emigration Of
those people. The Germans are less
liable 20 homc.sckness, while the Eng.
fish are free from it in the superlative
degree hence the cosmopolitan char
acter of these people, and their pres
ence and conquests In every quarter OF
the habitable globe. The disease was
very marked among the French troop s
during the late war, not only impairing
their efficiency as soldiers, but actually
killing them outright by the pining for
home aud familiar scenes. The Italian
army is hardly less distinguished by
this malady than the French. The
phrenologist would cut this Gordian
knot with the greatest ease, by refer
ring the whole trouble to the organ OF
"inhabitiveness." Nations may as
reasonably be expected to differ in this
respect as species. IT. you change your
domiclle, your dog goes along with you,
his "adhesiveness" ranking his "inhab-
itiveness;" but your cat will stay be
hind-caring greatly more for the hab-
itation than for you. Apply varying
propensity Of this kind to various na.
tions-in the same manner as we are
forced to accredit them with faculties
which make them variously martial,
aesthetic, intellectual, humane or su.
pcrstinous-and the problem is solved
At once; the Frcnchman has simply
larger inhabitiyeness and the Briton
less and there's an end ont.

Congressional.

The River Falls journal brings Gen.
j NJ. Rusk forward as a candidate for
reelection to Congress, and sugs SIS
the propriety Of his beng an independ-
ent candidate that is, while he may
be considered a Republican candidate,
that he be run without the yldorse-
ment of the Republican Convention.
We are Of the opinion that conyen-
ton should be held and unhesitatingly
favor the nomination of Gen. Rusk.
But, there may be others in this Con-
gressional District who aspire to rep
resent il in the councils Of the nation,
and should Gen Rusk run as an inde-
penden Republican candidate, they
would feel privileged to do the same
and number of Republican candidates
would be more likely to result from
holding no convention; the opposition
would take advantage of this state of
affairs, unite upon some popular man
aud possibly elect HIM, thus defeating
not only General Rusk, but the Repub-
lican party in this District. We be-
licve that Mr.. Rusk as member Of
Congress hae done himself honor and
credit upon hose whom he there rep
resented. His record Will bear the
closest inspection, and we believe that
the people of the Seventh Congressional
District owe it to themselves as a duty
to return him to his present position
for another term-Hcrdld.
If there are others who "aspire to
represent" and "feel privileged, let
them ''aspire," and let them "feel' to
their hearts content We don't be-
lieve that any man is privileged" to
represent, although he may aspire to
run, dnless the people want Lin. We
deem that excuse quite too thin,
and scarcely W ,rthy Of candid consid.
