INJUNCTION AS TO ONE OF ITS PROVISIONS
PREPARATION FOR vACCINATION-THE JULY

CORRESPONDENCE of the Richmond Dispatch.l
JUNE %, 1881.
Up TO this writing rain has been falling
slowly aud steadily for two shours, with
wind from the northeast. The hearts OF all
are made glad beyond expression, even
though some wheat may be caught upon the
ground.
The city tax bill, against which as to one
Of its provisions an objection had been
raised by about thirteen OF the tobacco
houses, on the ground that 1t had been
passed without the notice OF ten days which
the charter requires, was called up yesterday
and passed unanimously. The provision
referred to is that which levied tax upon
the tObacco-deaers OF fifteen cents for every
thousand pounds Of tobacco purchased by
them, aud the objection took the form OF an
Injunction against the collection OF the tax.
IL yet remains to be decided whether the
Injunction will be perpetuated or not.
DR.. Thomas w. Keen, city physician, on
Yesterday submitted to the Council that
such measures should be adopted as would
encourage the vaccination Of all who had
not been vaccinated and the revaccnation
OF all who had been vaccinated several
years ago, and the Council accordingly or
dered that he be authorized 10 procure
supply OF pure vaccine virus from some re-
liable party, and that the ctiZenssgenerally
be requested to avail themselves Of the adj
vantages OF vaccination.
Mr.. Gravely, OF the Finance Committee,
gave the legal notice Of motion to apprO-
pirate funds sufficient for the payment Of
the interest on the city bonds, which falls
due on the 1st OF July.
Captain w. NJ. Tredway, Jr., chairman
OF the county executive committee, calls for
a convention OF the Conservatives for the
18th Of July, for the purpose OF re0rganza-
ton and the appointment OF an executive
committee for the county, and also for the
appointment OF delegates seventeen in
number) to the State Convention. He in
yites the attendance Of every Conservative
who expects to vote the ticket that is nOmi-
mated on the 4th Of August, and wants the
best men OF the party sent as delegates.
The internal revenue receipts for last
week amounted TO SlS,404S4.
Judge Hughes presided Yesterday In place
OF Judge Rives, who, as | have reported, is
unable to hold court on account OF illness.
There is q most remarkable absence OF
number of people who are usually seen here
during the session of the United States
Court-the meonshiners and their friends,

For the Dispatch.l
The Richmond Primary.

The nominee Of the August Convention
will get the full vote Of the cities. They
are certain, and may be relied upon with
out question. But thousands OF Democrats
In the country need not be expected to vote
for "higher tax" or last-dolar" man,
though nominated by q dozen conventions.
They will not do 1t. True, they will not
vote for the Malone ticket with a Radical
on IL; but that they will not vote at all is
equally true. As was the case in the Gree
ley campaign aud again in 1879, so now
thousands would simply stay at home on
election-day.
Let our Richmond friends In their pri-
mary vote for the man who will be strongest
with the farmers Of the State, whether he
is their first choice or not. For Richmond,
the pride and glory OF all Virginiars, ever
votes right. Remember In the coming con-
test the danger, II any there Is. will be
found outside the cities. WESLEY.

This is emphatically good book. The
steps follow with eminent cOnsecutlyeness,
each one so put as TO offer the best promise
of being understood and retained. The
hand OF the teaching writer is seen every.
where, the whole book being full Of clear
statement, evidently the result Of clear
thinking. 1t is, too, within such compass
as to be easily read in the time assigned to
the subject in the regular course Of the COL
Ieges and schools. We hope TO see this
book largely used.

ton Advertiser says:
"Experiments with common building
brick at Charleston West Val during the
last ten years have shown that they are bet
terthan granite, asphalt, limestone, or wood,
and, so far rs the condition Of the pavement
laid eight years ago on Summers street, in
that city, can show, they will last fiitv years
or lonser. We are convinced that common
building brick, given an extra day or two In
the kills, so as to make them hard, is the
cheapest and best material extant for street.

Surely they must be very different from
the common building brick Of this region.
We suppose tba. on Broadway, New York,
a pavement OF common building brick such
as we use in Richmond would last less than

Fashions change gradually. Unless
they did they could not be followed, for
sliddenness would demonstrate their alb
surdity. The revolutions that they make
are not obvious until they have been re-
garded through a series of years. The
feminine mode of wearing the hair ut
present is fair illustration. a good
while ago, when the rage for phrenology
had brought high forheads into vogue,
the hair was brushed back from the brow
so as to exhibit it to its fullest expanse.
The fashion was not pretty; itgave women
IA bold, masculine, staring expression
but it continued with the interest In
phrenology. Then women began to
dress their hair reasonably, letting it
shade the brow, as it ought TO, instead
Of pushing it off as far as possible. They
have of late been wearing it lower and
lower, until many now hide their fore
heads with ii altogether. It is not un-
common to see well-dressed women
whose hair, natural or false, comes down
TO their eyebrows, while others draw it
forward III such profusion rs TO give
them grotesque appearance. Most of
the New York women who make any
pretense to fashion look as if they had
no brows these being invisible Oh ac-
count of the peculiar arrangement of
their hair They are not content to de-
pend upon nature, either. They deco
rate themselves with front-pieces of
divers patterns, and by their aid look as
i'll as they well can. If they knew how
they looked in the eyes of good taste
they would, we are sure. alter the dress
ing of their hair. Hiding their forhead
in that manner bestows on them a very
insipid, not to say imbecile, expression.
They might, with hair and eyebrows
mingling, he mistaken for bleached

To Husbands.

Always complain of being tired, and
remember that nobody else gets tired.
Your wife should have everything in
readiness for you, but you should not
do anything for her.
When your wife asks for money, give
her a nickel; ask her what she wants
with it, and, when she tells you, ask her
If she can't do without it. Then go
down town and spend ten times the
amount for cigars, for they are neces-
sity.
Go down town of an evening, stand
around OH the street corner and talk
politics. it's more interesting than to
stay at home with your family.
Charge your wife not to gossip, but
you esn spin all the yarns you wish.
Have your wife get up and make fires,
but don't get up yourself till the rest of
the family are eating breakfast, as you
might take cold.
Wear old clothes, and make yourself
as untidy as possible until your wife's
health fails; then il would be best for
you to fix up some, for in oil probability
you will want another when she is gone.
Have smile for everybody you meet,
but get frown on before yon go home.
