SHAVING THE BEARD.

The Practice Is Alluded to in Many Parts
OF tho Old Testament.
The earliest reference to shaving is
found in Genesis xii, IA, where we read
that Joseph, on being summoned before
the King, shaved himself. There are
several directions as to shaving in Le-
viticus, and the practice is alluded to in
many other parts OF the Holy Scriptures.
Egypt is the only country mentioned in
tho Bible where shaving was made q
practice. In oil other countries such an
act would have been dobasing in the
extreme. Herodotus mentions that the
Egyptians allowed the board to grow
when in mourning. So particular were
they as to shaving at all other times,
that to neglect it was to set ones self
up as target for rcproach and ridicule.
When the Egyptian artists intended to
convey the idea of a mean, low, sloven-
ly fellow they always represented him
in full beard.
Unlike the Romans Of later age the
Egyptians did not confine the shaving
privilege to free citizens, but Obliged
their slaves to shave both board and
head.
The priests were about the only class
OF citizons who habituslly shaved the
head except the slaves.
About 300 years b. G. it became the
custom OF the Romans to shave regular
ly' According to Pliny, Scipio Afri.
oanus was the first Roman to shave
daily. In France the shaving custom
was brought about by Louis XIII.
coming to tho throne young and beard
less, The Anglo-Saxons wore their
boards until at the Conquest they wero
compelled to follow the example of the
Normans, who shaved. From the time
OF Edward III. to that Of Charles !.
boards were universally worn. In the
time OF Charles II. mustache and whisk-
ers only were worn, and soon after the
reign of that monarch tho shaving prac-
tice became general.-St Louis Rcpub-

FACTS ABOUT RINGS.
A History OF the Use OF This Wen-Known

"A History OF the Use OF This WeL-Known
Ornament.
The practice of wearing fnger-rings
has been almost universal from an early
period in the worlds history. There is
tradition which ascribes their inven-
ton to Tubal Cain; and the old Latin
author who gives currency to the story,
speaking of the wedding circlet, says:
1.-The form of the ring being circular
that is to say, round and without end
imparteth THIS much, that mutual love
and hearty affection should roundly flow
from one to the other, as in the circle,
and that continually and forever" The
first authentic reference to fnger-rings
occurs in the Old Testament, where
Judah's signet-ring. That they were
also in use among the Egyptians at that
time is evident from the forty-first
chapter of Genesis, where we read OF
Pharaoh taking off his own ring and
putting it upon Josephs hand, when he
made him ruler over all the land Of
Egypt"
The hands Of female mummies. found
in the tombs of Egypt, are profusely
covered with rings; the wealthy ladies
of that country wearing costly ones
upon nearly every finger, while their
poorer sisters had to content themselves
with circles of bronze, glass or pottery.
The ancient Chaldoans, the Persian5,
and, according to Herodotus, the Baby
lonians wore rings; and it is probable
that from Asia they were introduced
into Greece. In the later Greek legends
the ancient heroes are spoken OF as
wearing them, and at more recent date
every freeman throughout Greece seems
to have had one.
The earlier rings appear to have been
used not 80 much for ornament as for
the practical purpose of affixing seals;
but later on they became merely orna-
mental and we're set with precious
stones. The Romans, who are believed
to have derived the custom from the
Sabines, wore signet-rings Of iron-as
was the case with the Laced@monians
and every freeman had the right to
wear one.
Ambassadors in the early years of the
republic used to wear gold rings as part
of their official dress; this jus annuli
aurei being afterwards extended to
Chief Magistrates, Senators and. later On,
to equities. Emperors were won't to con-
fer this right ON those whom they wished
to favor, and the privilege became grad
uaily more and more extensive, until in
the time Of Justinian all Roman citi.
zens could avail themselves of it.
The later Romans used to wear many
rings upon their fingers, some even hcv-
ing different ones for summer and win
tor, while the height of 'dandyism''
was reached by those who never wore
the same ring twice, but threw it away
when once it had done service.

of Seymour, Indiana, wrote a
letter to Jefferson Davis in
regard to the matter. In reply
Mr.. Davis wrote as follows:
"The evil influences 10 which
yOu refer as causing the bitter
ness felt towards the men, It
may fairly be expected, will
give way before the sober sense
of the people if they shall, like
yourself, detect the . sordid

are administered. ! will net.
like the telegram you cite in
regard to the attempted assassi-
nation Of the President, say
ain thankful the assassin was
not a Southern man, but /
regret that he is all American.
The crime, black enough in
itself, has a deeper dye from
the merCenary motive which
seems to have prompted It. [
sincerely trust the President
may recover, and that the
startling event will arouse the
people to the consideration Of
a remedy for the decentralization
