The earliest historical records of Britain, as furnished by Ca^a , Strnbo and Tacitus, show that the physical characteristics of the people were very nearly the same as at the present day. In the south eastern and northern parts of the island the inhabitants were tall, fair and blue-eved, with hair varying in hue from yellow to red ; while in the central and western parts they wcro short, dark-complexioned, black-haired and black I riM ? -? - - ejeu xue iwo races 111 itiosc nays inhabited tolerably well defined localities; bill at tho present time, owing to a variety of causes, such as foreign conquest, and intermixture of blood with other nations, change of manners, tood, domestic habits, &e., the two types and their intermediate gradations are to be found side by side in all parts of England. Nay, even in the same family may sometimes be found children of both types, and the |xipulation is now at>out as hetorogeneous as can well be. But there is a vast difference in one respect between the ancient and modern Britors. IN CuESAU's TIMK 1*1 1 1_ a 4I f -1 A twoen the social organization, habits and theology ot those races, and bonce there is good reason tor believing that the Celtic population of ancient Britain was the western fringe of that vast stock which can t>e traced to Central Asia, and the existence ot which on the oonttnee of China is oiten mentioned by the anoient Chinese annalists, the tribes being spoken of under the name of M White Uuns." THE AST AM MACS Invaded India 1.400 years ago, and spread over that peninsular, Persia, Asia Minor and Europe. In India tliey subjected a pre-ex.. -.' t ? * 1.^*1 ine wuoie 01 me inuauiiauis 01 Englatui spoke the Celtic language, or rather the Cymric dialect of that language, while in Scotland they 8)H>ke the Gaelic dialect, and it is believed, though there is no certain information on the subject, that in Ireland they did the hpiiic. In Victoria's time the language spoken universally throughout the British Isles is the English, a mod ification of the Anglo Saxon, into which a large number of foreign words, especially of Greek and Latin origin, have been introduced; and it is only in romote and isolated districts that the ancient languages are stills^ioken, as, tor in* stance, Gaelic in the Highlands of Scotland, Erse or ancient Irish in the South and West of Ireland, and Cymric or Welsh In Wales. The English language has boaome the hatiitual medium of intercourse between all the varieties of people now inhabiting the British Isles. But whence came the CELAIC 6PBAKIXO PEOPLE, With its two contrasted dark and fair forms, which inhabited Britain 2.000 y? ara ago ? At a very remote period the island, probably, was unite" to the continent of En? rope; in fact, the identity of the geological strata between the cliffs ot Dover And those of the opposite coAst, renders this theory all but certain. At all events the distance was never so great between them but that the Celts from Gaul could have crossed over and settled in Britain. But modern researches nave sn wn mat the fair or the dark complexion was no proof ol .difference of origin.? There were always tall and lair Celts as well as dark and short ones. Still there were regions wherein the one predominated over the other. When history first speaks of the Celtic language, it was used by a people physically identical with the Oertrian6 and the Slavonians; it has since been found to bear strong affinity to the Tentonic and Slavonic languages, and to belong to the great group cf Aryan or Indo European languages. The iflino rofiamhlanRA nrevailitd lwv > fating, dark complexioned people, resembling the native Austrailians, ' and speaking a group of languages [ called Drawidian. In like man, ner, .when, 1.600 years before the . Christian Era, the Aryans, then , known as u Celts M and " Gauls " in Europe, poured over the Alps and Pyrenees into Italy and Spain, t|iey found there a short, dark* > skinned race, speaking dialects of ' the Euascaran or Biscayan lan* ' gnage. Multitudes of these peo* | pie escaped fiom their invaders i | and found their wnv into Frane? ! , England and Ireland, in which , last named conntry they were and B'ill are galled Milesians. Their ' descendants may yet be traced, 1 but they ultimately became en' grafted on the Celtic stock, though contributing to vary it in Ireland and in the south of France. The Teutonic race followed in the track of the Celtic; they were the second wave of the great Aryan deluge, and thoy subjugnted the Celts, as the Celts had suhjufrated the dark skinned race. Their angnagc, though of the same root tut the Celtic, became changed in some very marked forms. The German and Gothic, the Greek and the Latin were of this 6tock. * These Teutons made themselves masters of tho northern t?ortions of Europe, and they sultse nnently, under tho appellation of Saxons, Danes and Normans, followed the Celts and the Celtic Romans into Britain. Hence the mixed population and the many dialects in use there. Since the influx of Danes and Normans there has been no considerable admixture of foreign elements in the pop illation. But Europe, subsequently to the Teutonic influx, sustained the horrors of invasion from Slavone, Tartars and Huns, the third, fourth and fifth waves of the great Aryan stock, whence sprang the Russians, lV.es, Turks and Slavonians, of East Europe, also the Bo hetnians and the Czechs. In-Growing Toe-Hails. This most painful of the diseases of the nails is caused by the imGroper manner of cutting the nail, generally of the great toe,) and then wearing a narrow, badly made shoe. The nail beginning to grow too long, and rather wide at the corners, is trimmed around the corner, which gives temporary relief. But then it begins to grow wider in the side where it was cut off; and, as the shoe presses against the corner, the nail cuts more and more into the raw flesh, which be comes excessively tender and irritable. If this 6tate continues long the toe becomes ulcerate 1, and fungus (proud flesh) sprouts up from the sorest points. Walking generally increases the suffering, till positive rest becomes indispensable.* Treatment.?We omit all modes of cutting out the nail by the root, and nil other cutting or torturinc opci&iions. Begin the effort at cure by simple application to the tender part of a small quantity of perchloride of iron. It is found in drug sto.es in a fluid form, though sometimes in powder. There is immediately a moderate sensation of pain, constriction or burning.? In a few minutes the tender surface is telt to be dried up, tanned or mum nifiud, and it censes to be painful. The patient, wiio could not before put his foot to the floor, now finds that he can walk upon it without pain. By permitting the hardening, wood like flesh to remain for two or three weeks, it can easily be removed by soaking the foot in warm water. A new and healthy structure is found, firm and solid, below. Thereaiter if the nails be no more cut around the corner and sides, but always curved acroes in the front end, they will in future grow only straight forward; and by wearing a shoe of reasonably good size ana shape, all further trouble will be avoided.? lioatvoick'a Med. and Sur.

When tip thin to one, keep well hoed, anu just when the vine starts to run, cut a thick bu6hy tree about six feet high, sharpen and drive down near your vine and trail the vine upon the bush. Get a large gourd or tin can, attach a metal pipe and sink this pipe four or five inches under the ground near the root 6o that by tilling the gourd or can with water, (which should be done once a day,) it will water without wetting the surface which should be kept well pulverized witli an iron rake. Just at er every good soaking rain put a pint of liquid manure in your can. Proce> d as above, and the number ot cucumbers that one vine will produce will astonish any one. Keep them well gathered.

There is a little person with long,' flaxen hair, a straight, thin nose, and watery, blue eyes, attending one of our city schools, who has been married over a year.
