Mr.. Bigelow-The nomination of

thereby rendering "Rcturning Boards"

The Chinese have a genius for trade,
and in nothing do they show their mer-
camille aptitudes more clearly than in
the redainess with which they meet
every passing demand in the market.
In the last trade report from Swatow,
Mr.. Mexican, the Deputy Commissioner
of Customs at that port, draws attention
to the sudden growth and development
of the export trade in human hair which
has of late years sprung up in his dis
trict. According to this authority, the
hair thus exported consists of the comb
ings collected in BARRIERS shops, and is
ali sent to Europe. In 1873, when this
unusual item first appeared in the trade
returns, 141 piculs weight Ia picul 133
pounds) were exported from Swatow;
In 1877 this amount has increased to 38l
piculs; and in 1876 no fewer than 1000
piculs Of the combings from the bar
bers' shops of Swarow were shipped off
to amplify the coiffures of Europe.

A Newspapers Function.

In recent speech of an attorney In
a libel suit, the following language
occurs: There has grown up sort of
common law of obligation, recognized
mutually by the press and the people, by
which the people expect that the press,
as distributors of useful intelligence,
shall inform them, as well what is to be
avoided as what to be sought, as well
who is to be suspected as who is to be
conf1ded in. And a newspaper, as a
garnerer and distributor of news. Is a
public monitor, and it is its duty to ad-
monish the people against frauds and
shams, and impostures and dishonesties.
1t is to be beacon as well as guide;
and whenever public newspaper,
through its diversified appliances for
the collection and distribution of
information, discovers any where in
public life, and public avocations,
whether it be a lawyer, or clergyman,
or aphysician, man who, instead of
securing the public welfare by honora-
BILE methods and practices, simply
prowls about in the back yard of his
profession, and uses the means
and instrumentalities which honora-
BILE title gives him to pander to his own
lust or avarice, or any other vile passion,
and that paper fails to send out some
admonitory voice, and sound some
signal of warning, it is recreant to
every principle of duty and response
bility, and should be stigmatized by the
public it pretends to represent and to
