The result of the late election furnishes
food for sober thought. Logan. Gray
sou, Breckenridge and Hopkins have
each elected Republicans to the legisla-
ture. Why is this? May it not be the
result Of bossism? When parties be-
come powerful, the tendency is for the
worst elements of them TO manage toy
party tricks and machine methods to
get control Of the organization, and
thus foist members of the ring on the
party against its will. This can only
succeed for time. Good men will re-
bel against bossism sooner or later, and
woe TO the bosses when they do get their
dandsr up. The result in the above
named counties will doubtless work
good to the Democratic party in them.
They will reorganize with their best
men In the lead, and go on conquering
and to conquer. %. Ne,cs.

Washington Letter.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Aug. 10, 1855.
Editor Herald:
1t has for years been the custom to
allow departmental clerks thirty days
leave Of absence in a year, and thirty
days additional "sick leave" with pay
But this has been changed so as to
allow only thirty days in all. This
leave has usually been taken i'm the
summer months, but so far this year
but few leaves have been applied for,
compared with what have been granted
in the same months in previous years.
Many of the clerks are fearful that il
they should take leave it might be
extended indefinitely without pay, and
so their courage to ask for 1t is very
weak. But there is little need of any
one leaving Washington la summer.
At this season of the year the foliage,
plants and shrubbery which adOrn our
circles and parks are in the heighth of
their glory. The least observant per-
sou can scarcely pass by them without
being conscious of a pleasurable emo-
ton
The medical museum, which occupies
the old Ford's Theatre on Tenth street,
made historic by the assassination of
President Lincoln in it, is i'm luck. Com

sa0O.000 for the erection of a new
building. The site selected is the
Smithsonian grounds. where it will
stand alongside the Smithsonian and
National museum buildings-places
well known to every person who has
ever visited Washington. Bids just
received for its erection range from
sl79, 200 to SESSION
Lieut.. Greely's health is not rs bad as
reported. He is spending the summer
in Massachusetts, and expects TO leave
in October for Scotland, but bis report
on the Arctic expedition will be given
TO the public before he sails for that
country. This report will be printed
by the Government at its own printing
Office in this city.
Great difficulty is experienced every
winter in properly and economically
heating the various government build.
ings here, many of which cover an
area Of over $4,000 square feet. With
the view of remedying the evil stock
company has just been organized to
heat buildings generally by means of
superheated water, forced through
mains laid underground. The water is
made to fill the pipes, and heated above
2l20 temperature, and il designed to take
the place of steam and furnace heat
heretofore used. IL 1t should ever be
adopted by the Government for heating
its buildings here there will be millions
IN it."

The arraignment, trial and conviction
of Brown for barn-burning, followed in
due course. He was sentenced to ten
years in State prison. Ret received his
$500. He is still connected with the de-
tective bureau. There are some persons
whose natural qualities are those of the
fox and hound. They are naturally keen
and love to follow and ferret out crime.
Such persons have their use in the COM
munity. Still, for good reasons, l should
prefer that son of mine should not be-
come a detective.

AstroIogy.

On the revival of learning in the four
teenth century, astrology was turned to a
curious purpose, viz, that of forming a
science or philosophy of religion. This
feat was attempted by Peter de Arbano,
or Albano, a learned physician of Padua,
at the beginning of the fourteenth cen
tury. He cast the horoscopes OF various
religions, Christianity included, in order
to discover the course Of their future de-
velopment, and the length Of time they
would endure. The learned gentleman
got into trouble with the inquisition,
but as he died at the age Of eighty, be-
fore sentence was passed, that tribunal
had to be satisfied with burning him in
effigy. jerome Cardan, the celebrated
algebraist, and Jean Bodin, celebrated
French political author, attempted a
philosophy of history on like method.
The use of astrology in this fashion has
been praised by nineteenth century
philosopher, Auguste Comte, who goes
even SO far as to say that the rejection Of
astrology was premature, and has tended
TO retard the progress Of the science Of
history. From the fourteenth down to
the end Of the seventeenth century
great attention was paid to astrology,
aud the science was cultivated and pat
ronized by both mobiles and philosophers.
The last astrologer who had public at
tention paid to him in England was
William Lilly, in the time of the civil
war between the king and parliament.
Both sides seem to have consulted him,
and he wrote several books on the science
and an amusing autobiography. Lilly
was examined by the privy council in
regard to the causes Of the great fire in
London. He is said also to have been
the model for the Sidrophel Of Buffers
ssHudibras. Since the beginning Of
the eighteenth century astrology has
fallen into disrepute, but has had sue
cession of votaries up to our own day.
Among what our old writers used to call
"the vulgar, it is questionable whether
there is town of any size in Lancashire
or Yorkshire without its professional
astrologer, and the advertisements of
professors of the science turn up in all
sorts Of odd corners in the byways of
literature. So an extensive public must
even yet exist which has not got rid Of
all faith in the monitions OF the stars

Sewing on Eyebrows.

s'The patient sits here" the professor
said. sIn this cushion to my left are
stuck score or more of these needles
you saw being threaded. Each stitch
leaving only two strands Of hair to ia
cilitate the operation, number Of nee
dies must be on hand. As each thread
is drawn through the skin over the eye
it il cut SO that when the first stage Of
the operation is over it leaves the hair
bristling out an inch or so, presenting a
ragged, porcupine appearance. Now
comes the artistic work, The brow must
be arched and cut down with the utmost
delicacY. A number of hours is required
to do it.
'It must be very painful and tedious9n
"They don't say it's a picnic excur-
sion, +" laughed the professor, ''but eye
brows, small as they are, are very impor-
tant in the makeup Of the face. You
have no idea how old one looks when
entirely denuded Of hair over the eyes.
The process + have described is painful,
but it makes good eyebrows, and adds
100 per cent. to the looks Of person
who was without them. It is, too, so
much better than the blackening and
cosmetics some people use, especially
people who have only mere preteuses of
brows comprising few colorless hairs. -
''Do your sewed- -through-t -thcskin eve
brows last9'
"For years. There is the advantage.
The only caution to observe is in wash
ing not to use too much friction Other
wise they are perfect and can be brushed
every morning and look as well as tue
