THE reign of reason has returned. The
latest caprice Of fashion is so charming and
sensible that we can forgive many folles.
Once more the shapely heads of women ar
seen unencumbered by mountains of false
hair. There can be no doubt now that wo-
men have brains. Now woman suffrage will
advance apace. No man can deny that
woman who dresses her hair after the fashion
of taste and simplicity now in vogue has in

The New England Fair.

The executive officers of New England
and New Hampshire state agricultural So
cieties met at Manchester, N. H., on
Thursday evening to consider the expedi-
ency of holding the next annual fair of the
New England agricultural society at Man
chester, IN connection with that of the
New Hampshire state society. The sub
ject was fully discussed by Col. Daniel
Needham and George Noyes of the New
England society, Gen. Matt Head, Col. A.
G. Riddle, Aaron Young and others of the
New Hampshire society. The feeling on
the whole was favorable to the proposition
TO unite in holding the fair. The only
question upon which any doubt was ex-
pressed was as to whether the exhibition
as proposed, would prove pccuniarily ad-
vantageous to both societies. The matter
was not decided, and the meeting adjourned
for one week.

New Source of Trade.

The Pacific Mail steamship Colon leaves
to-day for Aspinwall, touching on the way
for the first time at Savanilla, Colombia.
This port is at the mouth of the river Mag
dalena, the main artery aud highway of the
commerce of that country. 1t is thought
that the tapping of this rich country will
tend to divert portion of the trade to our
own shore. The shipments have been
formerly made to Europe, consisting main
ly of coffe, tobacco, hides, ivory, nuts,
cocoa, indigo, gold, silver and other pro-
ducts. The coffee and tobacco plantations
are almost entirely in the hands of enter
prising Germans, while the gold and silver
mines, which are OF almost unparalleled
wealth, are worked nearly exclusively by
British capital.

The Centennial Of the Capture of Old

1t would seem strange IL Aliens capture
should not be noticed somewhere in Yer
mont, or by an excursion of Vermonters to
the old fort, on the coming anniversary,
May 10th. Old Ethan's remains sleep in
Burlington. That should at least make
provisions for decorating his monument on
the occasion. And here in Montpelier, on
the portico of the capitol, stands $4,000
statue of him, belonging to the state, which
Gov. Peck should cause to be appropriate
ly decorated, as well as other parts of the
building. A band of music, and "camp
fire." or a promenade concert" mi!h
help the thing along little. Perhaps the
Montpelier firemen will take hold and in
vite the Barre boys down. Besides this,
Rutland, Bennington, Middlebury and the
southwestern section of the state, ought to
60 over and retake I'll. There Is plenty of
time to arrange for doing something, If 1t is
not quite so mart-Montpelisr Argus.

The CITY Of Homes. ,

Philadelphia has earned this designation,
as it contains $1,000 more dwelling houses
than New York and $4,000 in excess of
Boston, as we learn by an article in the
Press. These residences have been erected
by building associations, the membership
of which now numbers $4,000 persons, who
either own or are paying for the houses in
which they live. 1t IS said there are in the
"city of brotherly love" about rs, 900 dwell
ings owned by men who, without the aid
of organizations that furnished the means
for building, could never have Eemerged
from the condition of tenancy to that of
proprietorship.
