THE FAIR MExIcAN.-The Mexican
women look their best in ballroom.
Their black eyes, black hair and white
teeth glisten in the light; they are dress
ed in the gayest of gay colors; ponder
GUS ornaments of gold, strongly relieved
by their dusky compilations, shed a.
round them rich barbaric lustre.
Not that they eschew adventitius hues
to blanch their sun-shadowed tints. For
DAYS some Of the senoras or senorltas
have worn mask of q white claycy
mixture to give them an ephemeral
whiteness for this occasion. Those who
could procure nothing else have worn a
pasty vizor kneaded of common. clay,
to effect in some degree like result
by protecting their faces from the sun
and wind Should you visit New Next
co, and as you ride along slowly in the
heat of midday meet senorita who
gazes at you with pair of jet-black
eyes, through hideous, ghastly mask
of mud and mortar, do not be trighten-
ed from your accustomed propriety.
The senorita is preparing her toasHe
de bal. The New Mexican can not be
considered pretty, generally speaking,
in artistic symmetry.

The following from letter of old
John Adams, shows that if prohibition
had been started in his day he would
have been its advocate:
Indeed, scarcely anything that
have observed in the course of long
life has a greater influence on the relig-
ion, morals, health, properties, liberties,
aud tranquility of the world; l mean
public houses.
Thousands and thousands are every
year expiring IN Europe, and proper
tionable numbers in America, the mis-
cradle victims of their own imprudence
and the i'll policy OF rulers in permitting
the causes of their ruin to exist"

Reliable Testimony.

1t cannot be reasonably supposed that
when a person testites to the efficacy of
remedy whose benefits he has experienced
without solicitation, that he does so for
the purpose of misleading the public, or
from any other motive than that of graft
tude. 1t is still more unreasonable to
suppose that eminent physicians would
corroborate the evidence thus given I'M
less they were persuaded of its truth.
The proprietors of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters are constantly in the receipt of
voluntary testimonials acknowledging the
curative and preventive potency of this
beneficient tonic and corrective, emanat-
ing not only from those who have felt its
influence, but also from we'll known men,
bers of the medical profession, both here
and abroad, who have witnessed its effects
and prescribed it in their private prac-
tice. In the face OF such evidence as this,
to which the widest publicity has repeat
edly been given, it would be absurd to
question the medicinal virtues of the Bit
tiers. Skepticism upon this point was
long ago disarmed, and they are to-day
as much respected and far more widely
known than many of the official rene
dies which figure conspicuously in the
pharmacopoeia. They are universally

sensitive organs. Whether used as a
remedy for actual disease, as a means of

DEATH IN TIE SNow.-The accounts
of the great snow slides in Utah which
are reported by telegraph, give vivid
picture of the dangers and terrors of
winter in the mining canons OF the far
West. In some of their results, though
essentially different in their origin, they
suggest the revelations of Pompeil ard
Herculaneum. Men are suddenly over
whelmed, and their homes demolished
and buried by the treacherous snow.
One striking instance is given OF the
discovery in one house that had been
buried, OF the body of woman sitting
in rocking chair with her infant clasp
ed in her arms, and near by the bodies
of her husband and little girl, all having
persisted from sufocation by snow. In
another instance we read that fifty
Cinnamon were overwhelmed by an
avalanche of snow, and that twenty
eight lost their lives

p@- The AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE,
The Charlestown Spirit of Tuesday last
contains another communication on the
subject of founding an Agricultural
College near Leetown, and is asfollows:
Mr.. Editor-I promised to advise
you if heard anything new concerning
the foundation of an Agricultural Col
lege near Leetown. | can assure you
that such an institution has been char
tered. l also heard that Col. Robt. w.
Baylor, our present worthy and efficient
President Judge of the County Court,
will be chosen as the President of the
College. He will be the right man in
the right place. Such an institution
will need an active and energetic man,
and one possessed of executive abilities.
/ also heard that the direction will be
under the supervision of such men as
DR.. Logic, Isaac Strider, Esq, Mr..
Watson, Mr.. Jones, Mr.. Helm, Mr..
Homsher, Mr. Roberts, Mr.. Wiltshire,
&c. With such men the college is an
assured success and will no doubt pay
the stockholders from the very moment
it is opened; indeed in conversation
with several gentlemen, learned that
there will be enough boys entered at its
formal opening to pay all expenses OF
the college and leave handsome sum
at the end of the year, to be applied to
the payment of the purchase money,
or to be divided among the stockhold-
ers. This must be so because, there
will be no outlay for buildings, every
thing is ready, and built to hand on the
Woodbury. estate, and all fitted for a
college. This place will be selected
and have understood that MIR. and Mrs.
Grove have agreed to sell the main
house and 100 acres of land to the col
lece authorities, when they are ready.
This will be lovely spot for such an
institution. / do hope the people OF
the county will come forward and en-
courage this enterprise, one we somuch
need, and one that will profit us SO
much. l have been assured and read a
letter to the effect from gentleman OF
Maryland, that if the people of Jeffer-
son county will show proper and lib
eral spirit, that the valley as far up as
MELVILLE, in Pa, wall send their boys
and subscribe for the stock, as the same
may be needed This foreign capital
depends upon our subscriptions; every
man in the county ought to take some
stock, be it much or little.

A STRANGE REvENGE.-A singular
story of jealousy and revenge comes to
us from Sicily. A beautiful young girl
named Florina, who was the belle. of a
travelling circus, in which she figured
as the lion tanner, had been for some
time receiving the attentions of an ath-
lete belonging to the same troupe. She
became jealous of him. No.signs, how
ever, of her painful discovery were al
lowed to escape. She still smiled sweet
upon him. In her own bosom she plan
ned terrible revenge. One evening
recently when the performance had
been unusually brilliant-atter Florina
had whipped the lions and forced them
to lie at her feet-she called her lover
aside and said to him: 'Do you still
love me?" Always" he answered. "Do
you know that | should die if you
should marry another woman ? "What
an ideal" responded the young man.
"But l should first kill you," said Flor
ina. "And how would you do that?'
Thus cried the girl, at the same in
slant pushing him violently into the
cage of the lions. They attacked the
unfortunate man at once and tore him
to pieces, while Florina urged them on
with blows of her whip.
