American Cider for England.

Among the articles which English
men are glad to import from this coun-
try is sweet cider Within the last
three OF four years large trade has
sprung up between this city and Liver
pool, and dozen merchants handle
American cider in bulk. In Great
Britain, English cider, made mostly in
Devonshire, brings less price than the
American. Some cider also goes to
France, but Frenchmen are not so fond
of it as the English. The firm which
exports the most cider has its office in
Warren street. It's orchards and mill
are in Madison county. The pressing
is all done by steam in October, No
vember and December The apples
used are mostly of the ungrafted kind,
and are all perfectly sound, otherwise
the flavor of the cider would be i'm
paired. Last season more than $50, 200
bushels OF apples were crushed, and
the product was 10000 barrels of cider.
The juice is allowed to ferment until it
reaches certain stage, and is then
filtered through sand to clean it thor
oughly. It is drawn off in large vats,
and is kept until it is wanted for barrel
ing. The barrels are bunged very
tightly, and the cider keeps without
change for two or three years. Any
stock which becomes soured by age is
made into vinegar, and sells for three
fourths of the price OF cider.-Neav

Interesting Facts About Hair.

Whether the hair should be cut I
never could quite satisfy myself. As
physiological practice, seriously doubt
the propriety. Every cutting is
wounding, and there is some bleeding
in consequence, and waste of vital
force I think it will be found that
most long-lived persons wear their hair
long.
The cutting Of the hair stimulates to
a new growth, to supply the waste.
Thus the energy required to maintain
the vigor of the body is drawn off to
make good the wanton destruction. It
is said, I know, that after the hair has
grown to a certain length it loses its vi
tality at the extremity and splits OF
"brooms up" Whether this would be
the case if the hair should never be cut
would like to know. When it is cut a
fluid exudes, and forms scab or cica-
trix at each wounded extremity, indi-
eating that there has been injury.
Women and priests have generally
worn long hair. [ never could imagine
why this distinction was made. The
ancient priest was very often unsexed
or devoted to vow of celibacy, but I
cannot surmise whether that had any,
thing to do with it. Kings wore their
hair long, in imitation of Samson, and
the golden S11n-God Mithias. I sus-
pect from this that the first men shorn
were slaves and laborers; that freemen
wore their hair unmutilated as the
crown of perfect manhood and manli-
ness. If this be correct, the new era
of freedom, when it ever shall dawn,
will be characterized by men unshorn
as well as women unperverted.
I wish our science and our civiliza-
ton had better devices for preserving
the integrity of the hair. Badness is
a deformity and premature wilderness a
defect. If the head was in health, and
the body in proper vigor, L am conf
dent that this would not be. I am ap-
prehensive that our dietetic habits oc-
casion the bleaching of the hair; the
stiff, arsenic-prepared hat is responsible
for much of the badness. Our hats
Daily globe. [volume] (St. Paul, Minn.) 1878-1884, 1883-05-01

are unnealuhy, from the UrlcKs or uue
matters. L suppose there are other
causes, however. Heredity has its in
fuence. Certain diseases wither the
hair at its roots; others lower the vital
ity Of the skin, and so depilate the
body.
I acknowledge that the shingled head
disgusts me. It cannot be wholesome.
The most sensitive part of the head is
at the back where the neck joins. That
place exposed to unusual cold or heat
is liable to receive an injury that Will
be permanent, if not fatal, in a short
period. The whole head wants pro-
lection; and the hair affords this as no
other protection can. Men have boards
because they need them, and it is
wicked to cut them Off No growth OF
part of the body is superfuous, and we
ought, as candidates for health and long
life, to preserve ourselves from violence
and mutilation. Integrity is the true
manly standard.-Dr. HttdeT, IN Med
zeal Tribune.

LIFE IN GREECE.
Modern 4Athentan Society

An Athens letter in The Boston Advertis-

ners, and lunches IN any one week before
or experienced greater cordially. You
know that Prof. Goodwin and his new
wife, OF Cambridge, are here, and their
friends will be pleased to learn that they
are the center of q delightful circle. In
1act, Mrs Goodwin, is little queen IN all
branches of society, and her daily O'Clock
teas are the resort Of all that Is swell IN
court or literary life. l met lovely Mrs.
FELTON,, the wife of President FeltOn's son.
Her husband is studying here. She has
beautiful baby, and she aS,.ed me to call
and see it. Forgetting for the moment
that it was not a museum or tomb, L
rather shocked her by asking if it would be
open at 10 o'clock.
1 had letter OF introduction to Mr..
Schuyler, our minister, and he could not
have done more for me if he had been my
father. Al their express request [ oscillat-
ed between the GOOdwin's house and the
American legation for nearly all my meals.
Athens is 4 queer place. Every one, no
matter how old, comes around and calls as
soon as che meets them; and then they i'm
mediately invite you to 4 meal. Even the
English charge insisted on my coming to
a kind of supper before one of the balls.
1 was taken to two balls by different
people on short notice. and found cordial
welcome, quantities of diamonds. ugly
women. and splendid dresses. Everything
is entirely European, for the people ii
wealth and position are foreign Greeks,
who have made their fortunes abroad and
who return to Athens for the winter.
Many of them cannot even speak Greek,
but they have all got q fever of patriotism
and want to do as much for their poor
country as they can. The queen is a dear
little bOdy-a Russian. Once when L was
down on Palerum beach athens Coney
Island) with the Schuy lers, she came up
and walked along with US. Later, at the
court ball, besides mumblipg few words
at the presentation, 1 had the pleasure of
dancing in the same set with her in a
quadrille.
That court ball was memorable. Every
body appeared in uniforms, as there were
few there besides officers, diplomats and
the ministry. Some six hundred men on
one side and two hundred ladies on the
other formed lane for the royal party to
come through. Then all formality was
ended, and it went on like any other ball.
There were only two kinds of dances all
the evening, the quadrille and gallop, and
so fearfully danced! But everybody, from
royalty down, went in with tremendous
eagerness and vim. The supper was a
curious, economical sort of an affair-cold
chicken, vegetable salad, jellies and
oranges, poor claret, ordinary sparkling
Rhine wine, and vim du pays. Everybody
stood about and helped themselves, ex-
cept royalty and diplomats, who sat down
separately Ito a very superior affair.
Down stairs, in a sort of cellar room, were
jars of tobacco and cigarette papers. All
the guests stayed very late.

HtstOru Of the DolIMr.

Alexander Del Mar, in an interesting and
elaborate history of the dollar, sums up as
follows:
Con July 9th, 1856, the Spanish dollar
was adopted by the Continental congress
as its integer of moneys and accounts. At
this date the law of Spain required that
the coin should contain 374B grains of
silver, but. in point of fact, the actual
weight of the newest and best dollar circu-
lating in America, as ascertained after nu-
merous experiments by Jefferson, in 1856,
and Hamilton in 1790-was BIZ grains.
Accordingly, when, in 1871, Hamilton sub
mitted his report to the government of the
United States on the subject of mint and
coinage. he recommendedlt to coin dollars
containing exactly the same weight of fine
silver as the Spanish dollar then in circu-
lation, and i'll which the debts of the re-
public had been contracted. This was &C
cordingly done, and from that day 1792) to
the present the quantity of silver in the dol
lar of the United States has never been
changed. 1t has always been, and is still,
exactly 371A grains troy land the thing
dollar is, therefore, precisely the same to-
day as it was at the date of the establish
ment of our government

4 Brare Wom,a., Of RE Var.

Miss Clara Barton, who was nomin Ted
and confirmed = 3ril II as superinteG tanc
of the WOmen'S prison at Sherborn, n ass.
is the daughter of ne late Judge Barton, al
Worcester. Her father, at his decease, left
her with small com pet ence, and when the
war broke out she deer ed it her duty to go
into the field to take care of sick and
wounded soldiers. She did thai duty to
the full acceptance AMI comlnendation of
every commander III whose army she was,
and obtained the love and respect of every
grade. After the war was over she was de-
tailed by the secretary or war to go down
to Andersonville and sec to the memorials
and the history of the prisoners confined
there, and take care of the sick and desti-
tute who we're left behind. At the break
ing out of the Franco German war she
again went to the field, this time acting in
connection with the organization known
as the Association of the Red Cross, which
has for its object the relief of the sick and
wounded, without regard to the army in
which they are servlng-a society respect
ed by the armies of every civilized nation.
After the war was over Miss Barton re-
turned home and established a branch of
the association of the Red Cross in the
United States, of which ociety she is now
the president. This association also con-
templates the relief of groal distresses, of
the people by floods, accil ants, and cpl
denies in the time of peace. The emperor
and empress of Germany subscribed a
large sum for the reli5e OF the sutferings
of the Germans causcd by the late floods
in the west, which sun was sent to Presi-
dent Arthur, and was by him turned over
to Miss Barton to be by her distributed
through the agency of her association in
which employment she IS at present en-
gagged. Early in his term OF Office Gov.
Butler who was acquainted with Miss Bar

OntGTi0,S Loss Of Population
Toronto (Canada) Globe).

Whereas, up to 1873, the increase of
population in this province ranged steadily
between $4,000 and $4,000 per annum, in
1879 there came q change; the increase
dropped to $4,000 per annum, and IN the
next year not only disappeared; but was
supplanted by decrease of 5000, and in
1882 there was an increase Of only 1000.
These figures show that instead of the gain
of 10000 which Ontario should have made
in the last four years she made gain of
$4,000 only, or, allowing for Algoma, Sc,
of $4,000 only. And as immigration from
Europe has beeh larger during the last two
years than for the few years Immediately
preceding, the actual loss must have been
greater still. Now, where have these 100,-
900 lost sons of Ontario gone? In April,
1881, there are but $4,000 people in Mani
toba, and $4,000 in the Northwest, includ-
ing Indiana. If we allow that 10000
Ontarians we're in Manitoba, &c, by the
end of 1882-which is q liberal estimate,
seeing that the $4,000 people in Manitoba
in 1881 included only $4,000 Ontarians-we
are probably not far from wrong in con-
Guiding that the remainder of the 100000
went to the states, and this 100000 in four
years, from Ontario alone, does not differ
so very widely from the facts as shown by
the American census
