MACAULAY ON SUNDAY.

Man! man this is the great creator
of wealth! The difference between the
soil of Campania and Spitzbcrgen is
Insignificant compared with the differ
ence presented by two countrics-the
one Inhabited by men full of moral and
physical vigor, the other by beings
plunged in an intellectual decrepitude.
Hence 1t is that we are not improver-
ished, but, on the contrary, enriched
by this seventh day, which we have so
many years devoted to rest. Tho day
is not lost. While the machinery Is
stopped, while the car rests on the
road, while the treasury Is silent, while
the smoke ceases to rise from the
chimney of the factory, the nation en-
riches itself none the less than during
the working days of the week. Man,
the machine of all machines, the one
by the side of which all the inventions
of the Watts and Arkwrights are as
nothing, is recuperating and gaining
strength so we'll that on Monday he re.
turns to his work, with his mind clear.
or, with more courage for his work and
with renewed vigor. will never be-
lieve that that which renders a people
stronger, wiser and better ever can
turn to Its impoverishment.

WHAT is SEEN FROM PIXIES PEAK

Some curious natural phenomena are
witnessed from the summit of Pixies
Peak. Electric storms are SO remarka-
BILE that those who have witnessed
them are eloquent as to their splendor.
Little thunder accompanies them but
the whole mountain seems to be on fire
and the top one sheet of flame. Elect
richly comes out OF every rock, and
darts here and there with INDISPENSABLE
radiance. An observer says that it
played around him continuously, shot
down his back, glanced out of his feet,
and SO completely filed him that he
became charged like n Leyden jar. He
could not retain his foothOld; he bound
Ell aud rebounded from the rocks after
the manner of an India rubber bali; he
felt as though a powerful battery were
throbbing and thrilling through his
frame, and, fearing consequences, he
hurried into the signal station. The
signal officers stationed Mt tho Peak see
some wonderful sights, and If they had
as much imagination and rhetoric as
they have patience and power of obser.
walton, they could furnish some very
vivid descriptions of what they witness.
Several men of science who have
watched electric storms from the top OF
the mountain, think the phenomena
tho grandest and most imposing, and
that they can hardly be surpassed any
where. The Peak commands view
Of 100 miles radius, a wild mountain
Gus region, containing many lakes, and
the sources of four great rivers-the
Platte, Arkansas, Rio Grande and
Colorado of California. Imagine that
board, picturesque extent kindled and
glowing with electricity, and you have
an ideal picture of sublimlty which no
poet has begun to paint.-N Y. Times.

wonEN EYEINa WOMEN.

The eyefug of women by women fs
ono Of the most offensive manifesto
fIons az superciliousness now to be met
with In society. Few observant per-
Cons can have failed to notice the
manner In which one woman, who is
not perfectly well-bred or perfectly
kind hearted, will eye. another woman
whom she thinks Is not In such good
society, and, above all, not at the time
Ia 90 costly dress as she herself is In.
It is done everywhere; at parties, at
women In all conditions of life. The
very servant girls learn 1t of their mis-
tresses. It Is done In an instant. Who
cannot recall hundreds of instances of
that sweep of the eye which takes in
at q glance the whole woman, and
what she has on, from topknot to shoe
tier Men are never guilty of It, or,
with such extreme rarity, and then in
such feeble and small-souled specimens
OF their sex, that It may be set down as
sin not masculine, or at least epicene.
But women of sense, Of some breed
ing, and even of some kindliness of
nature, will thus endeavor to assert u
superiority upon the meanest of all
pretenses and inflict wound in a
manner the most coward1y, because 1t
cannot be resented and admits of no
retort. II they but only knew how
unlovely, how positively offensive they
make themselves in so doing, not only
to their silent victims, but to every
generous-hearted man who observes
their lnaneuvers, they would give up
a triumph at once so mean and so cruel
which Is obtained at such sacrifice
ON their part. No other evidence than
this cycling is needed, that woman,
whatever be her birth or breeding, has
a small and vulgar soul.

Memphis Avalanche: a party OF
colored emigrants for Kansas. from
Madison parish, La, took passage on
the John b. Maude at Vicksburg, on
her last trip from Vicksburg to st.
Louis. On their arrival ut st. Louis
they learned the disappointment and
destitation that prevailed among those
Of their race who had preceded them.
This cured all desire for II location in
bleeding Kansas. They did not leave
the boat, but returned to their homes
on the next trip of the boat. They
passed here yesterday, and said they

Tins standard article is compound

Its effects arc as wonderful and as
satisfactory as ever.
1t restores gray or faded hair to its
youthful color.
1t removes all eruptions, itching
and dandruff. 1t gives the head a
cooling, soothing sensation Of great
comfort, and the scalp by its use
becomes white and clean.
BY it's tonic properties it restores
the capillary glands to their normal
vigor, preventing badness, and MAX
